Chapter 218: Confrontation at the Palace Gate
Qiaoxiang had a hideous expression on the way back to Yongshou Palace. I have to say that Mama Bai's actions just now made Qiaoxiang very disgusted, but Qiaoxiang had to endure Mama Bai's threat.
Qiao Xiang knew that if she wanted to develop in the secret guard, she couldn't tear her face with Mama Bai, otherwise she would be the one who suffered!
Therefore, Qiao Xiang still held back the anger in her heart, and prepared to say a few good words to her aunt who didn't know what to say in front of Concubine Zhao.
Qiao Xiang is still very confident in whether she can get Yun Yao to promise to let Bai Mama go to Yongshou Palace on an errand, even if she doesn't succeed in framing Caiyu, but she is still the number two person next to Concubine Zhao now, and Concubine Zhao will definitely give her this face.
Qiao Xiang's face also improved when she thought of this, no matter how proud Qiao Xiang was in her heart that she was a servant of the emperor, but now in the Yongshou Palace, Qiao Xiang was still very happy.
As soon as Qiao Xiang entered the palace gate, because she was thinking about things, she didn't notice that there was still a person standing at the door.
And the person at the door didn't hide either, it seemed that he was deliberately waiting for Qiaoxiang to bump into him.
Qiao Xiang is quite favored in front of Yun Yao, so in Yongshou Palace, Qiao Xiang is also the number one person, so Qiao Xiang is also quite arrogant in Yongshou Palace.
For this kind of situation, even if she accidentally bumps into someone else, even if she ignores it, Qiaoxiang's arrogance will not let go of the person who collided with her.
So Qiao Xiang didn't see who the person who hit him clearly, so she scolded directly: "What thing that doesn't have long eyes, can't you see that your aunt and grandmother are here?" ”
Qiao Xiang didn't see who hit her because she was hit to the ground, but Qiao Xiang sat on the ground and cursed a few words, and found that there was no one begging for mercy, and she couldn't help but be a little angry.
But when Qiaoxiang looked up and saw who she was bumping into, she shut up in amusement. It turned out that Qiaoxiang bumped into someone else, it was Li Dequan, who had some trouble with Qiaoxiang two days ago.
Li Dequan said with a smile: "Where did Miss Qiaoxiang come from?" In such a hurry, even the living person of the miscellaneous family can't see it, and Miss Qiaoxiang's eyes won't be bad! ”
Qiao Xiang heard Li Dequan's ridicule and wanted to taunt back, but Qiao Xiang also knew that she now had a handle in Li Dequan's hands, so she could only turn a blind eye to Li Dequan's sarcasm.
And Li Dequan was very surprised to see that Qiaoxiang didn't even reply, you must know that in the past, don't look at Qiaoxiang in front of Concubine Zhao Niangniang, but in front of the palace maids and eunuchs of Yongshou Palace, she has always been unforgiving, even Li Dequan, the dignified chief eunuch, has eaten Qiaoxiang's head, you can imagine how arrogant Qiaoxiang is.
But Li Dequan didn't think that this was Qiaoxiang giving him a soft face, and Qiaoxiang's forbearance made Li Dequan more vigilant.
But Li Dequan didn't show his vigilance, but continued to taunt Qiaoxiang, saying: "Qiaoxiang girl is so pompous, I don't see it when I bump into the miscellaneous family!" ”
Li Dequan didn't think about himself before, he obviously saw Qiao Xiang coming over absentmindedly, but he didn't see it, and let Qiao Xiang hit him.
And even if Qiaoxiang didn't know Li Dequan's thoughts, she felt very angry. It's not that Qiao Xiang knew that Li Dequan was standing there on purpose, but Qiao Xiang felt that Li Dequan's every move was mocking her. Of course, this is not different from the truth.
Qiao Xiang didn't want to be sideways before, so her attitude towards Li Dequan was based on forbearance. But Qiao Xiang still didn't hold back her temper after all, and replied, saying: "Gonggong Li, don't forget that thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi." ”
Li Dequan was amused by Qiaoxiang's words all of a sudden, and said a little funny: "Look at what Miss Qiaoxiang said, we are all slaves of Concubine Zhao, do you still want to climb to the master's head?" ”
When Li Dequan said the last sentence, his tone contained fierceness, which made Qiaoxiang shudder.
Qiao Xiang didn't dare to admit that she really had such thoughts, and even the emperor couldn't tolerate her when she said this. Qiao Xiang hurriedly quibbled:
"How so? What did Gonggong Li say? The slave and maid are loyal to the mother, and Father-in-law Li should not pour dirty water on the slave and maid. ”
And Qiao Xiang just knew that Zhao Concubine's future was likely to be brilliant, how could she provoke Zhao Concubine's eyes at this juncture. She also thought about waiting until Yun Yao sealed the queen, so that she would also soar into the sky.
Not to mention Qiao Xiang's careful thinking for the time being, Li Dequan looked at Qiao Xiang's eyes and was very vigilant, although Qiao Xiang did not do anything to Zhao Concubine, but this does not mean that Li Dequan is completely at ease with Qiao Xiang.
Qiao Xiang naturally knew that Li Dequan was investigating her, but Qiao Xiang was not afraid of Li Dequan, no matter what, Qiao Xiang believed that even if Li Dequan found out her true identity, he would not have the courage to expose her identity, and I am afraid that even Zhao Concubine would not be able to ask for anything good at that time.
Anyway, if the palace concubine knows that the emperor has placed chess pieces beside her, even if the palace concubine finds out, she will not be able to please anything, and even the emperor will have a grudge against the palace concubine.
Therefore, Qiao Xiang felt that even if her identity was known by Concubine Zhao, she would confess her, instead of tearing her face. It is even possible to please her and let her say something good in front of the emperor, so Qiaoxiang is not worried at all, and can even be said to be fearless.
Qiao Xiang was a little proud when she thought of this, but Qiao Xiang didn't want to deal with Li Dequan anymore, and she would worry about what she would show after a long time.
However, if it wasn't a last resort, Qiaoxiang was unwilling to let Concubine Zhao and Li Dequan know, and her identity was only the last talisman at most.
And with her understanding of Concubine Zhao, if she really angered Concubine Zhao, Qiaoxiang had no doubt that Concubine Zhao would tear her face, just like the original Baimei and her aunt Mama Su.
At that time, even if Concubine Zhao herself will not get any benefits, then she will probably be dealt with by the emperor in anger, after all, no matter what she says, she is just a minion, how can the emperor be merciful to her.
So Qiao Xiang hurriedly said: "The master also said before that he wanted to eat the pastries made by the slave maid, if Gonggong Li has nothing else, then the slave and maid will go back to make pastries for the mother." ”
Li Dequan saw that Qiaoxiang mentioned Zhao Concubine Niangniang, and it was not good to keep Qiaoxiang anymore, so he could only say: "Qiaoxiang girl is serious, since Qiaoxiang wants to eat the pastries made by Qiaoxiang girl, the miscellaneous family naturally dare not stop it." Qiaoxiang girl, please! ”
Li Dequan didn't test Qiaoxiang's attitude, and in the end, in desperation, he could only let Qiaoxiang leave.
Li Dequan looked at Qiaoxiang's departing back and narrowed his eyes, and because of this, no one could see the true emotions in Li Dequan's heart. And the little eunuch guarding the palace gate inadvertently caught a glimpse of the emotions leaking from Li Dequan's eyes, and couldn't help but shudder.
Li Dequan turned around and saw the little eunuch's appearance, and said with a smile: "What, little Xuzi, is it too cold?" I'll have to wear some more in the future. ”
Xiao Xu Zi was so moved by Li Dequan's greeting that he couldn't be more moved, he only felt that he was absolutely wrong before, how could Gonggong Li be such an empathetic person?
Xiao Xu Zi hurriedly thanked Dai De and said, "Thank you for your concern!" ”
Seeing this, Li Dequan nodded and didn't say anything, and turned around and entered the palace gate directly.
