Chapter 149: Getting What You Want
Han Xiaoxiao was amazed, and finally had a deeper understanding of the palace, especially the harem.
Hu Hua was used to this kind of deception, and knew that now was not the time to talk about things, so he pulled Han Xiaoxiao to sit aside honestly.
Originally, Concubine Cheng called someone to come, so she couldn't say half a sentence, but the queen couldn't say too much here, and a few people could only start chatting without a sentence on the left.
Not to mention the three people who were talking, the queen was very uncomfortable listening to it on the side, and the atmosphere became awkward all of a sudden, but no one could leave, and several people sat on the edge of the table and froze.
At this time, the eunuch's sharp voice came: "The emperor has arrived, welcome the holy driver." ”
Several people hurriedly stood up and knelt on the ground, Han Xiaoxiao's own identity is much higher than the emperor of this family, if she kneels down, this emperor will probably have to lose her life, before she could finish hesitating, Hu Hua had already pulled her down quickly.
Han Xiaoxiao looked at the pale emperor and sighed in his heart, saying that this is not a long-lived image, and if it goes on like this, he won't be able to live for long.
The emperor saw that his queen and his concubine got along very harmoniously, and for a while, the dragon's heart was happy, and even his voice to Han Xiaoxiao and Hu Hua softened.
"You two should also hurry up, now that there are good things inside and outside the palace, these false gifts are not so necessary. ”
The corners of Han Xiaoxiao's mouth twitched, thinking that I have been kneeling for a long time before you remembered to tell me to get up, what did you do earlier.
Hu Hua has been with her for a long time, even if he doesn't look at her face, he can guess a few points, and when he saw this, he hurriedly stepped forward to block her and the emperor.
"The minister and Miss Han don't often enter the palace, and some of these rules should be followed, which makes Your Majesty smile. ”
The emperor waved his hand, looked at Han Xiaoxiao, who lowered his head, and said meaningfully, "It is also appropriate for capable people to have some tempers, I understand, you can sit down." ”
The two of them glanced at each other, didn't say anything more, and sat honestly on the side.
Concubine Cheng talked to the emperor for a long time, and then turned her gaze to the two as if she had just remembered: "Speaking of which, you can be regarded as having an intersection with King Cheng, I don't know what Miss Han thinks of King Cheng?"
Ordinary people know what this means, but Han Xiaoxiao doesn't know a lot about many things in the capital, and he doesn't think too much, so he said lightly: "His Royal Highness King Cheng is brave and strategic, and he can be regarded as a generation of heroes." ”
The smile on the corner of Concubine Cheng's mouth became more obvious, and the queen frowned with some concern: "Concubine Cheng's words are a bit out of the rules, Miss Han is only how old she is, even if you ask about family affairs, it shouldn't be up to you to ask." ”
Concubine Cheng covered her mouth suddenly realized, and pretended to say helplessly: "It's not that the concubines are too worried about the selection of His Royal Highness Cheng's side concubines, but they ignored the rules for a while, thank you for the queen's advice, but Miss Han's face is really unforgettable, and the concubines and the girls are a little moved." ”
The emperor has been much better during this time, so he thought about finding a time to choose a concubine, and he couldn't help but feel a little moved when he heard the words.
"Oh, I haven't heard of it, and it just so happens that there is nothing going on now, so it is better for Miss Han to take off the veil and see it, if it is really a peerless appearance, your marriage will be decided by me." ”
Royal marriage is a very decent thing both among the poor and among the nobles, Hu Hua glanced at Han Xiaoxiao with some concern, thinking about how to obscure this matter.
The queen thought about what the prince said to herself, and hurriedly stepped forward to block Han Xiaoxiao in front of her: "Miss Han is not very old, it is really inappropriate to talk about marriage, the emperor should worry about it in two years, and the child in Concubine Cheng's belly is still important now." ”
Concubine Cheng gently touched her stomach with her hand, and looked at the queen's eyes full of boredom. But it was not shown at all.
"What the queen said also makes sense, the emperor should still listen to the queen. ”
The emperor was originally for his own selfish desires, and when he was reminded of the so-called rules, it was naturally not good-looking, but what the queen said was very reasonable, and he couldn't refute it, so he could only nod very aggrievedly.
Seeing that such a thing happened, the emperor couldn't stay anymore, so he sat down briefly and left, and when he left, he looked at Han Xiaoxiao's eyes with unkindness, so that Han Xiaoxiao couldn't help but hide behind the queen with some fear.
The queen was originally not favored when she was old, but now seeing such a delicate and weak child hiding behind her, she was suddenly stimulated to motherhood, she gently patted Han Xiaoxiao's shoulder and whispered: "It's better to enter the palace less in the future, and it will be good for the emperor to choose a concubine after a while." ”
Han Xiaoxiao had a good impression of this noble and kind woman in her heart, and thanked her quietly before sitting back on the chair.
Concubine Cheng gritted her teeth angrily when she watched the interaction between the queen and Han Xiaoxiao, but she had no choice but to eat nuts in a muffled voice without speaking.
The queen has long seen Concubine Cheng as unpleasant, and she is even more impatient when she is consumed here at this time: "There is a time limit for family members to visit in the palace, it is better to say something to Concubine Cheng quickly, otherwise when the time comes, it will be troublesome for you to say anything." ”
It stands to reason that family members can only stay in the palace for half an hour, but in order to show his importance to Concubine Cheng, the emperor forcibly extended the time by an hour, which means that there is still half an hour before two people can leave the palace.
Han Xiaoxiao looked at the bitter tea on the table, her brows were about to wrinkle, and she gently tugged at Hu Hua's sleeve and hinted that he wanted to find a way.
But now that the two most favored bigwigs in the palace are by his side, Hu Hua can't show his great ability even if he has great ability, and he can only shake his head with a long sigh.
The queen touched her sideburns and became a little sleepy, smiled at Han Xiaoxiao and said slowly: "I see that Concubine Cheng and you are not very close, and there is nothing to say here, it is better to come with me, there are still a lot of plum cakes brought in by the prince in my palace, I think you children should be willing to eat them." ”
Han Xiaoxiao didn't want to agree, but looking at Concubine Cheng's casual appearance, she knew that she would definitely suffer if she continued to stay here, so she nodded happily: "Thank you, Niangniang." ”
The queen was very comfortable when she saw Concubine Cheng's deflated appearance, so she didn't care what Concubine Cheng wanted to say to this kid, and left with Han Xiaoxiao, who could be regarded as swaggering.
