Chapter 187: A Little Storm
"Who is this?" Liu Yingning locked her eyes on the woman beside the Queen Mother, and asked puzzledly. In her impression, Mo Tenderness did not seem to appear in her world.
"This is Concubine Mo, and she can be regarded as half of your aunt. The Queen Mother explained seriously. Seeing Liu Yingning becoming more and more well-behaved, her heart finally fell.
Liu Yingning's father was the marshal guarding the border pass, he was dressed in a horse, with a blue blood and a heart, all of whom were working for the royal family, just because of the surging Liao stiff in the past few years, his father stuck to his post, desperately defended Antelope City, drove the enemy out of Antelope City, and later invaded again? He fought straight to a soldier, and finally was outnumbered and died outside Antelope City. The emperor thanked her father for sacrificing his life for the country, so he adopted her as a righteous daughter. Therefore, she was also named the king of Huaiyang, and she was also named the county lord.
"Ying Ning has seen Mo Guifei. "Liu Yingning is gentle and polite, without a little pampered arrogance.
"Miss Ying Ning, don't be polite. Mo was tender, and smiled gently. Mo Rouqing was imprisoned in the cold palace for more than 20 years, Liu Yingning she really hadn't seen it, but her father had seen it a few times. But that was more than 20 years ago. She didn't know what to call Liu Yingning, because she didn't know that Liu Yingning was named the county lord, so she replaced it with the word Miss.
But at this moment, a man in a dark robe with a standing collar walked with a beautiful woman.
"Grandson, granddaughter-in-law, I have seen the imperial grandmother. I wish the emperor's grandmother a long life and celebrate with the sky. Xuanyuan Junhao and Zhao Xin'er said in unison.
The queen mother saw that it was her grandson's grandson, who was naturally pleasant, but when she saw Zhao Xin'er, her old face changed, and she looked a little unhappy.
Zhao Xin'er saw that the Queen Mother showed an unconcealed look to her, and her beautiful face changed slightly, looking a little embarrassed. Zhao Xin'er seemed to think of something, she turned around and hurriedly offered the treasures she had prepared.
She opened a delicate little wooden box, and saw that inside was a fine pearl of the night, which was crystal clear, smooth and round.
When the concubine who was wearing flowers and branches next to her saw it, she walked over to take a look, so she didn't think about anything wrong? Rare treasures are slightly studied.
It's just that she blurted out such a thoughtless sentence, which caused everyone to be shocked, and whispered, "How could the prince of Xuanyuan Kingdom let his side concubine be so thin as a gift for the Queen Mother's birthday?"
When the Queen Mother heard this, she didn't like Zhao Xin'er very much, but now her old face is becoming more and more stiff? In fact, the gift for the grandson has already been prepared. β
Xuanyuan Junhao gave Zhao Xin'er beside her a look, asking her to hurry up and cooperate with herself. didn't want Zhao Xin'er to allow others to slander herself like this, so she went to question the concubine.
"What do you mean, my dignified Xuan Wangfu will give a fake "Night Pearl" to the Queen Mother for her birthday? It's a joke? What is your identity here? Nonsense? Obviously, it is deliberately aimed at my Xuan Palace. β
"Enough~" Xuanyuan Junhao warned in a low voice, he saw that the Queen Mother's face was even more ugly, so he threw a warning look to Zhao Xin'er.
The concubine didn't expect her truth, but she didn't want to make Xuanyuan Concubine so angry and dissatisfied, although she was a concubine, she was a powerless concubine, so she was obviously frightened by Zhao Xin'er's words. She realized she shouldn't have gone and apologized?
The concubine confessed her guilt and begged the queen mother for mercy. Liu Yingning, who was on the side, couldn't get used to walking and helped the concubine up. Hold her behind you.
She walked over and unceremoniously took the Night Pearl out of the small box.
"Zhao Xin'er, if you are doing the right thing, are you still afraid of what others will say?
"Brother Jun Hao, Ying Ning didn't mean to offend you, but this night pearl is indeed fake, this beauty just said that this pearl looks crystal clear, but there is something missing? There is no intention to target? I didn't say that this is a fake night pearl? How did it get into her mouth? It became a deliberate target? Ying Ning was really angry, so she came out and nagged a few words. β
After Liu Yingning finished speaking, she walked over and put the night pearl back in its original position. Since she knew that Shangguan was still suspended, she wanted to come back several times? Butβshe also had her helplessness? She just didn't like Zhao Xin'er, and she didn't like this woman who was inconsistent and pretentious.
"Liu Yingning, what kind of thing are you, this pearl of the night, I worked so hard to get it? But you slandered it so much? Lord, Xin'er is really wronged. Zhao Xin'er cast an aggrieved gaze.
But at this moment, I only heard a eunuch raise his voice and say. Dissolve the original weird atmosphere.
"Xingyue Dynasty, the King of Chu and the Princess of Chu came to congratulate the Queen Mother on her birthday. When the eunuch had finished speaking, he stepped aside. I saw a man in white leading a woman in white to come. The man's sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and the knife-like facial features are particularly eye-catching, giving people a kind of daunting coldness and domineering, on the other hand, the woman in white next to her is just simply tied up with a braid, and the two pieces of green silk in front of her forehead are blown by the wind. Faintly elegant, she has a goose egg face. The light makeup gives a beauty that transcends the world.
Everyone cast their eyes to visit. The Queen Mother was originally very secretive by Zhao Xin'er, but when she saw Shangguan still being, her old face instantly danced. She took a few steps, excited.
"Ran'er-it's Ran'er, who mourns the family, is back. β
"Sister Shangguan?" Liu Yingning was overjoyed, and ran to shake Chu Chen's hand away, she took Shangguan Yi's hand, and her delicate cheeks couldn't hide her longing and excitement for the woman.
Shangguan was still confused, she was suddenly held by a strange woman, how could she react? Naturally, she was slightly stunned.
"Are you?" she didn't know why the strange woman was so close to her, but she didn't see any pretense in the woman's eyes, but a hint of sincerity.
"Sister Shangguan, I'm Ying Ning? What's wrong with you? Ying Ning has only been gone for more than a year? Don't you remember Ying Ning?"
"Ying Ning?" Shangguan still whispered. The woman thought she remembered, so she nodded happily.
"Do you remember? I'll just say? How could you not remember Ying Ning, we were good sisters from childhood to adulthood. β
Zhao Xin'er saw that Shangguan was still coming, and saw that Xuanyuan Junhao beside her had been looking at Shangguan still with a look of distraction. So he walked over and said unkindly: "Don't take yourself too seriously? Your sister Shangguan has already forgotten you, and you don't look at your identity? She is now the princess of Chu of the Xingyue Dynasty? How can you climb your status today?"
Zhao Xin'er snorted coldly after speaking, and did not forget to sweep Liu Yingning with disdainful eyes.
"Concubine Zhao still likes to make things out of nothing, I believe that no one present understands it more clearly than Concubine Zhao, isn't it? What? Concubine Zhao wants to revisit the old things now? If so, I naturally won't mind?" This woman still does things like this without saying a word?
When Zhao Xin'er heard this, her face became a little ugly. She was a little weak-hearted. Shangguan still glanced at Zhao Xin'er. swept his gaze to Liu Yingning in front.
Although she didn't know this woman, but looking at her appearance, she should still be very good friends with the previous Shangguan, seeing that Zhao Xin'er liked to make trouble so much, she swept the flames towards her? So I couldn't help but gnaw a few words on her and told her to stop and stop? Do you really think that everyone in the world is her parents? Do you have to endure her pampered princess temper? Please, isn't she?
"Good sister, how can my sister not know you? Don't listen to her nonsense. Shangguan still explained to Liu Yingning.
"You-" Zhao Xin'er was angry, pointing at Shangguan with an expression of wanting to eat people.
"Enough! Is there any rule?" the Queen Mother was angry, chopping the crutches in her hand. Zhao Xin'er originally wanted to say something, but she was frightened by a shouting voice.
"The Queen Mother is angry," the concubines persuaded. Chu Chen just stayed aside and watched the play, and he didn't seem to be surprised by this kind of occasion. He understands Shangguan still, Zhao Xin'er stepped on her bottom line, she naturally won't let her mess around, just toss, I will always be your strongest backing, Chu Chen had an expression that was not a big deal to see the excitement.
At that time: Xuanyuan Junhao on the side knew the seriousness of the matter, so he walked over and bowed: "The imperial grandmother is angry." Xin'er, she is also a quick mouth, unintentionally, I will let her make amends to you. β
"Xin'er, why don't you hurry up and accompany the imperial grandmother?" Xuanyuan Junhao didn't expect things to develop like this?
He thought that Zhao Xin'er was just ignorant, so she wouldn't be petty in front of Chu Chen, or in front of the Queen Mother, so she didn't know anything about it? Obviously, he didn't know Zhao Xin'er too well.
Zhao Xin'er was unwilling to come, "Daughter-in-law knows her mistakes, I hope that the emperor's grandmother will forgive her sins, don't be angry with your body because of this." "Why? Why do you want her to apologize? Why is she wrong? She just wants to take advantage of the Queen Mother's birthday to show herself? Do her filial piety? Thousands of instructions to find such a pearl of the night? But she was so wronged, is she wronged?
"Forget it on weekdays, now in front of the guests, so I don't know what the importance is, don't look at what place this is, who are the people standing?"
"What my grandmother taught me is that she blames her grandson for spoiling her on weekdays, making her pampered and arrogant?"
"Mother, don't you want to be like your children, and today is your birthday. No, the King of Chu and the Princess of Chu are still here? Celebrate your birthday? People can't let them stand when they come from afar?
