"That's right, I think at the beginning, how many ministers in the court wanted their daughters to be sent to the prince's mansion, but at that time, the first emperor! just took a fancy to our Lan'er, and with a holy decree, he gave our Lan'er to the prince in marriage and became the crown princess. ”

Xiao Ruoxi's words, Li Yuhua was very satisfied when he heard this, and couldn't help but become even more proud.

Everyone knows that the two daughters of the Prime Minister's Mansion were personally given by the first emperor to marry, one was given to the crown prince, and the other was given to His Royal Highness King Han.

Li Yuhua is showing off in front of her.

But Xiao Ruoxi didn't care at all, looked at Li Yuhua, and said seemingly casually:

"But in this harem, there have always been many rights and wrongs, what if the eldest sister wants to keep her position? I really need some means. ”

"Phew, what nonsense are you talking about?"

I didn't know that Li Yuhua's pride hadn't eased up, and she heard Xiao Ruoxi's unfortunate words, she was obviously cursing her daughter's status to be unsafe! This woman...... Why is he so vicious, and he is really a virtue with her mother.

"Auntie, don't get excited, I'm just talking about things, I heard! Those concubines in the harem can do anything in order to compete for the emperor's favor, you see that now that the eldest sister is sitting in the position of this unique queen, it must not make those women in the harem crazy with jealousy! So! I'm also for the sake of my eldest mother, I'll give you a reminder, when did you tell your eldest sister to let her be more vigilant. ”

Xiao Ruoxi looked relieved to Li Yuhua on her face, but when she saw Li Yuhua's angry appearance, she was happy in her heart.

Compared with the war of words, she Xiao Ruoxi really never admitted defeat.

"You...... You get out of here, and I'll get out of ...... right away."

Li Yuhua trembled and pointed at Xiao Ruoxi, obviously angry by Xiao Ruoxi's words, she offended a Bodhisattva today, and invited such an unlucky ghost.

Xiao Ruoxi saw that Li Yuhua was also angry, so she accepted it when she saw it, and didn't plan to argue with her anymore.

"Then take care of yourself, auntie, I'll take my leave."

As he spoke, Xiao Ruoxi got up and was about to leave, but when he walked to the door of the hall, he suddenly turned around and said with a smile:

"By the way, eldest mother, I heard that the emperor already had an heir when he was still the prince, although the emperor has just ascended the throne not long ago, and he has not considered the matter of establishing a prince, but this is also a matter of time, if the eldest sister has not given birth to an heir for the emperor for a long time, I am afraid that the status of the lord of the harem is also difficult to protect......"

After speaking, Xiao Ruoxi didn't care about Li Yuhua's angry face behind him, and walked away.

Li Yuhua looked at Xiao Ruoxi's departing back, trembling with anger, and couldn't say a word for a long time.

"Hmph, slut."

Li Yuhua gritted his teeth angrily, waved his hand, swept the teacup on the table to the ground, and smashed it to pieces.

Seeing this, the maid serving on the side was so frightened that she quickly knelt on the ground, trembling.

"...... Get out of here......"

Li Yuhua was worried that she had nowhere to get angry, and she felt even more upset when she looked at that group of maids, and immediately drank people out.

When the maid heard this, she quickly cleaned up the pieces of teacups on the ground and hurriedly retreated.

After the maid withdrew, Li Yuhua calmed down, and then thought of what Xiao Ruoxi had just said, and felt that she had some truth in what she said.

It's been more than a few months since Lan'er and Chu Xiu got married, but there hasn't been any movement in this belly, this shouldn't be!

It seems that she has to take some time to go into the palace to see, what the hell is going on with this Lan'er?

"Miss, shall we leave like this?"

Walking out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Lian Xiang asked Xiao Ruoxi with some doubts, this was originally to see the master, but the master didn't see him at all, do you have to leave like this?

"Of course not."

Xiao Ruoxi shook his head, then walked to the side of the steps and sat down, saying:

"We're just waiting here for my father to come back."

Since she has come and come, she didn't wait for Prime Minister Xiao Cheng, how could she return in vain.

"It's ...... Wait here? ”

Lian Xiang looked at Xiao Ruoxi sitting on the ground like this, a little incredible.

"Hmm."

Xiao Ruoxi nodded, and no longer talked to Xiangxiang, just sat quietly on the steps and waited for Prime Minister Xiao Cheng to come back.

On the other side, the maid in the Prime Minister's Mansion saw Xiao Ruoxi sitting at the door like this, and wanted to call Xiao Ruoxi in, but when she thought that she was kicked out by her wife just now, she was afraid that she would call Xiao Ruoxi in like this, and offended Li Yuhua again.

For a while, everyone tried to avoid walking through the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and occasionally one or two people passing by from this place pretended not to see the person sitting at the door.

"Driving...... Drive...... Sigh...... Master, the Prime Minister's Mansion has arrived. ”

With the sound of a reining horse, a carriage stopped at the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and Xiao Ruoxi quickly stood up from the ground.

I saw Prime Minister Xiao Cheng get out of the carriage.

"Daddy."

Xiao Ruoxi called, then greeted him and helped Prime Minister Xiao Cheng get out of the carriage.

"Ruoxi, why are you here?"

When Prime Minister Xiao Chengxi saw Xiao Ruoxi, he was a little surprised for a while, but he instantly thought of Xiao Ruoxi's intention, looked at the little guy who came out to greet him, and suddenly shouted:

"Presumptuous, when the second miss comes back, you don't know how to welcome the second miss into the house, what did you do?"

The little guy was scolded by Xiao Cheng and lowered his head in shame, it was not that he didn't welcome Xiao Ruoxi into the house, but on one side was Mrs. and on the other side was the second lady, these two people were wrong, and he was also very embarrassed!

Seeing this, Xiao Ruoxi immediately opened his mouth to play a round and said:

"Dad, don't scold him, I just arrived and saw you come back."

Seeing his daughter's frozen red cheeks, still helping a subordinate to speak, Prime Minister Xiao Cheng was distressed, and suddenly didn't bother to bother with that subordinate anymore.

"Let's get into the house! It's cold outside, but don't catch a cold. ”

As he spoke, Prime Minister Xiao turned to the little girl behind him and said, "Why don't you hurry up and make a pot of hot tea for the second lady to warm up." ”

"Yes, the little one will go right away."

When the little guy heard the words, it was as if he had been amnestied, and he ran away without a trace.

And the reason why Xiao Ruoxi was waiting for him outside the door, Prime Minister Xiao Cheng also roughly guessed the reason.

Most of the time because of his wife, the two had a conflict!

Thinking of this, and thinking of the purpose of Xiao Ruoxi's visit this time, Prime Minister Xiao Cheng did not take Xiao Ruoxi to the front hall, but took her directly to the study.

"Ruoxi, I probed the emperor's tone for my father, and the emperor decided to wait for the queen mother's funeral to pass, and then behead His Royal Highness King Han."

As soon as he entered the study, Prime Minister Xiao Cheng didn't say too much greetings, went straight to the point, and said the news he got.

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Ruoxi couldn't help but tremble in his heart.

She originally thought that once the Lin family's funeral was over, Chu Xiuran would at most convict Chu Xiuhan first, and as for the matter of asking about the beheading, she would definitely have to discuss it with many ministers.

Unexpectedly, this Chu Xiuran would want Chu Xiuhan's life so quickly.
