Chapter 171: Auspicious Fall from the Sky
Xia Qianwei slowly raised her eyes, and happened to meet the silver-haired but kind-faced Empress Dowager Chenguo in front of her.
I saw that the other party's eyes were full of smiles, the green stone jade ornaments embellished in the hair were extraordinarily exquisite, a pair of golden dragon beads hung down in the ears, looking graceful and solemn, and her skin was very well maintained, looking radiant, the blue gown was embroidered with the dragon pattern of longevity, gorgeous and grand.
looks like an old man with kind eyebrows, but the vicissitudes of wisdom precipitated between her eyebrows make people know at a glance that she was also a powerful character when she was young.
At this time, the Queen Mother was also looking at the young beautiful girl in front of her.
However, there was nothing but novelty in her eyes, and with an expectant smile on her face, she actually stretched out her hand to help Xia Qianwei up, "Child, what did you just say about the crane manifestation?"
Everyone knows that the Queen Mother doesn't care about the harem now, but she just likes some interesting things, especially those bizarre new things, and now His Majesty actually gave the magical crane into Zen to Concubine Li, the Queen Mother doesn't have good things, but she used it to frame a little girl, how can she not be angry?
If the Queen Mother hadn't appeared, this Miss Xia San would definitely die, but whether she can live now depends on how to make the Queen Mother happy.
"This girl has long been notorious for her lies, the Queen Mother must not let her tease the royal family here, she deserves to die for destroying the things given by the emperor, and she should be dragged out of the palace gate and beheaded to show the public!"
Concubine Li raised her head, her gorgeous face crossed a touch of viciousness, and the Queen Mother immediately looked at the anxious concubine with a smile, "It's really her words, of course she can't be spared, but the mourning family thinks that this child is honest and not so disproportionate." ”
Concubine Li's expression couldn't help but stiffen, she looked honest?
She always knew that the Queen Mother didn't like her, and at this moment she clearly felt that the Queen Mother was praising that Xia Qianwei and then secretly sarcastically mocking her for being restless and irresponsible.
Right now, Concubine Li is even more eager to dismantle Xia Qianwei!
At this time, the crown prince Mu Yuan on the side always had a distant and elegant smile, but he couldn't help but worry about Xia Qianwei in his heart.
When he learned that Concubine Li had invited someone to bring her into the palace, he felt that something was wrong, so he took advantage of returning to the palace to ask the queen mother to ask for peace, and begged his imperial grandmother to come forward to relieve her.
But she didn't want to, Miss Xia San didn't wait for them to arrive, so she boasted about Haikou and said such amazing words.
Is she sure?
As if sensing his thoughts, Xia Qianwei immediately threw a reassuring look at the handsome man, and bowed respectfully to the Queen Mother.
"Back to the Queen Mother, the courtiers can prove that this is an auspicious omen, if there is half a lie, the courtiers are willing to be punished. ”
Everyone's hearts were really a little curious, how did this Miss Xia San prove it? Could it be that she could still make the ascending crane appear? Or call the wind and rain and attract thunder and lightning?
At this time, Mrs. Zhenguo did not relax at all, she didn't believe every word of Xia Qianwei at all, this girl was really out of proportion, did she think that offending the Queen Mother would end up better than offending Concubine Li?
No, the Queen Mother looks kind and approachable, but in fact she is very strict, and she hates being deceived and deceived the most, she gave Xia Qianwei a chance this time, if this girl fails, it will be the face of the Queen Mother! I am afraid that the Xia family will be implicated at that time, and maybe even the Zhenguo Mansion will ......
Mrs. Zhenguo couldn't help but look at Xia Qianwei's pampered expression, what was she thinking?
Soon, His Majesty's newly acquired crane into the Zen picture appeared auspicious news throughout the Chenguo Palace, many palace people went to pay their respects, and even the Emperor Chen in the imperial study was alarmed.
"This is the granddaughter of the Marquis of Changxing?"
At this time, Emperor Chen, who rushed to hear the news, looked at the well-behaved and quiet young girl in front of him in amazement, and only felt that her face was like a white peony that had not bloomed in the spring, both charming and pure, even if it was not decorated, it was as beautiful as the wonderful woman who came out of the picture scroll.
It's really weird, don't they all say that this Miss Xia San is vulgar and rude, but in front of her is a lady with outstanding temperament and dignified appearance.
Concubine Li on the side clearly felt a few ridiculous glances falling on her, and the expression on His Majesty's face was the same as when he first saw her, and his eyes were undisguised fascinated, as if he couldn't see anyone else except Xia Qianwei at this time.
The sense of crisis that was unacceptable to her came back to her heart again, although Her Majesty praised her appearance every day, and her own favor was undiminished in the eyes of others, but only Concubine Li herself understood that Her Majesty did not seem to be as enthusiastic about her as before.
This made her start to spend more effort to maintain her skin, but there are too many beauties in this palace, every time she sees the skin of those new show girls who have entered the palace, Concubine Li can't wait to tear their faces!
"Your Majesty, have you forgotten? This is Miss Xia San who asked you to marry at the beginning, didn't you still laugh with your concubine for a long time?"
Concubine Li immediately snuggled up to Emperor Chen's side coquettishly, and as soon as these words came out, everyone's faces immediately changed slightly, and they subconsciously looked at the beautiful girl who was standing faintly in the center at this time.
However, Xia Qianwei always looked like she didn't care about herself, as if she was not the one who was laughed at.
At this time, the emperor immediately came back to his senses and smiled awkwardly, Concubine Li's words undoubtedly reminded him that no matter how beautiful the girl in front of him was, she was also a person with a marriage contract, and the other party was still the cold young master of Zhenguo Mansion.
Now that Mrs. Zhenguo is on the side, it is really inappropriate for him to look at other people's future daughters-in-law like that.
"Your Majesty, can you wait for the mourning family to see Xiangrui? ”
only heard the queen mother's dissatisfied groan, this concubine made such an intimate act with His Majesty in front of everyone, and she really didn't have the slightest shame.
On the other hand, this Miss Xia San made the Queen Mother a little impressed.
In the face of Concubine Li's repeated and humiliating remarks, she still looked humble, such a mind and determination are really rare.
At this time, the girl in the center had already unfolded the red-dyed picture scroll in front of everyone.
Emperor Chen couldn't help frowning as he looked at the red stain on it, but he heard Xia Qianwei's soft voice.
"Please take a closer look at the Queen Mother and Your Majesty, the scorching sun in this painting is directly above the green pine, it can be seen that the painting means that the auspicious dawn is at noon, and there is still half an hour at noon, and the courtiers are willing to guarantee with their lives, and then the sky will send a vision, bless my Chen country. ”
Half an hour?
Concubine Li's eyes flashed with a gleam, isn't this girl delaying time? Okay, she wants to see what tricks this little fox can conjure up when the time comes!
No one noticed that Xia Qianwei and Prince Mu Yuan glanced at each other at this time, and then a dancing girl in a green dress came, with green curtains hanging high all around, and exotic music immediately sounded.
"Since noon has not yet arrived, my father and grandmother may wish to enjoy the song and dance first, and wait for the auspicious to come to the world. ”
As soon as Prince Muyuan's voice fell, the dancing girl in the center immediately jumped up......
