The emperor left the palace and looked at the closed door.
I don’t know when it started, but the queen turned into a hedgehog.
She was a very docile woman when she first got married, wasn't she?
He was a little confused and felt that the queen looked down on him.
Inside the palace, the maid was changing the queen's clothes while saying:
"I heard that Lord Rong was arguing with His Majesty again in the Imperial Garden."
"What are you talking about?" the queen asked curiously.
Rong Baichuan hasn't made any mistakes recently, so the emperor has no reason to retort.
So Rong Baichuan definitely won this argument.
She was very interested in the emperor's humiliation.
"It is said that Lord Rong directly mocked the selection after the Mid-Autumn Festival in front of His Majesty..."
The young maid imitated Rong Baichuan's disgusted expression, "Heh... Your Majesty is already old, yet he still takes a teenage girl into the harem..."
"Your Majesty was so angry that his fingers were shaking."
"Finally, he became so angry that he made Lord Rong kneel at the gate of the Imperial Garden and could only stand up when the banquet started."
After saying this, the little palace maid pursed her lips.
You can't laugh, or you'll be beaten.
"Hahahahaha..." The Queen laughed, "Only Rong Baichuan can cure him."
The candidates for this selection were all teenage girls who had just reached the age of marriage and were officials in the court.
I don’t know who in the Ministry of Revenue is so fearless that he actually included Rong Baichuan’s eldest daughter Rong Xuqing in the list.
Given Rong Baichuan's love for his daughter, he would definitely make a big fuss if he knew about it.
So after the morning court session ended yesterday, the list of concubines was accidentally seen by Rong Baichuan.
I thought he would wait until the Mid-Autumn Festival to find the emperor, but I didn't expect that he couldn't hold back today.
It looks like tonight’s palace banquet will be exciting!
The corners of the queen's mouth could not help but rise.
"Give orders to start the banquet two quarters of an hour earlier today."
On the way to Xihua Palace, the emperor looked again and again.
Why is the Queen suddenly so happy?
"Your Majesty, please watch the road carefully and be careful not to twist your neck."
The queen was now happy and her voice became a little softer when she spoke to him.
The third prince placed Rong Chaoxi in a rolling basket and pushed it behind him.
The basket was full of peaches, and the little guy was holding a big one in his hands and chewing it.
Suddenly, she turned her head and looked towards the southeast.
…
After entering the palace, almost all the young ladies and gentlemen were separated from their parents.
Rong Xuqing brought his brothers to the lotus pond.
Because Rong Yubai was sitting in a wheelchair, he was particularly eye-catching.
Jiang Xinran saw them at a glance.
"Brother, Xuqing is there, let's go over there quickly."
Jiang Xinran came trotting over, followed by Jiang Lingyu.
"Brother Jiang..." Rong Xuqing greeted softly.
After finding out that my soulmate was Jiang Lingyu, I couldn't describe how I felt. Every time I saw him from afar, my heart couldn't stop beating.
Rong Xuqing didn't want to fall in love with someone because of other people's words anymore, so she tried to avoid Jiang Lingyu whenever possible.
Jiang Lingyu nodded slightly, his brows soft, unlike usual.
"I'm glad to bother you these past few days."
"You two..." Jiang Xinran hesitated between the two of them, "Why are you suddenly so polite?"
"You're welcome." Rong Xuqing's ears blushed secretly. "Let's go find Sisi."
Rong Xuqing pushed the wheelchair and walked in front.
Jiang Xinran took Jiang Lingyu's arm, raised her eyebrows at him, and whispered:
"Brother, do you really like Xu Qing? If you do, go for it. I've asked around, and she doesn't have anyone she likes right now."
Jiang Lingyu looked at the slender figure in front of him, and after a moment's hesitation, he said, "Don't listen to the nonsense outside, or you'll ruin Xu Qing's reputation."
He was five years older than Rong Xuqing, and a rough man, so he felt that he was not worthy of her.
Never dare to think about it.
"Hmph! Just keep being stubborn! When your wife dies, just cry on your own!" Jiang Xinran looked at his brother with a feeling of disappointment.
Jiang Lingyu smiled helplessly.
After the news spread, Rong Xuqing obviously avoided him, and he saw it clearly.
If she had no intention at all, he would not bother her.
Seeing his brother's dazed expression, Jiang Xinran rolled his eyes speechlessly.
She let go of his arm and walked forward to hold Rong Xuqing's arm.
In a corridor, several people found Qiao Sisi.
Just as he was about to call her, he saw the woman next to her arguing with her.
"Is that the real daughter of the Qiao family?" Jiang Xinran asked with a frown.
"Yeah." Rong Xu nodded, with a look of annoyance on his face.
She had met this real daughter once, and she was an extremely difficult person.
"Go and take a look."
Leaving the others behind, Jiang Xinran pulled Rong Xuqing and walked over aggressively.
"Qiao Sisi, you are no longer the daughter of the Qiao family, yet you shamelessly pester your parents to take you into the palace!"
With no one around, Qiao Jiaojiao's sarcastic expression immediately surfaced. "You're so self-righteous and indifferent in front of your parents, but you're just hoping to snag a rich husband at the palace banquet."
"I have an appointment with a friend and don't want to argue with you." Qiao Sisi said coldly, "Whether you believe it or not, I have never thought of competing with you for anything, including my parents' love."
"You don't have to say one thing to my face and another behind my back. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, I will move out of the Qiao family."
"You want to retreat in order to advance? Do you think I'm stupid enough to believe you?" Qiao Jiaojiao's face was full of sarcasm. "You're just squandering our Qiao family's money outside."
"you……"
Qiao Sisi had nothing to say about this. Everything she had was given by the Qiao family.
If she left without a penniless body, where would she go? How would she survive?
Thinking of this, her eyes turned red and she stammered and couldn't speak.
"If you don't want to take it, then don't take it!" Jiang Xinran strode in front of Qiao Sisi, looking at Qiao Jiaojiao with his chin raised.
"The wealth of your Qiao family is not even enough for me.
"Sisi, move to my house tomorrow and I will support you from now on."
Rong Xuqing also held Qiao Sisi's hand and reassured her, "Sisi, don't be afraid, we are here."
When Qiao Sisi saw the two of them, her expression immediately changed, and she smiled triumphantly.
"Xinran, Xuqing, you are here." The tone was very familiar.
Jiang Xinran frowned unhappily, "Do I know you? Don't call me so intimately."
"How could I not recognize him?" Qiao Jiaojiao said with a sweet smile, "We should have been friends."
She looked at Rong Xuqing and said, "Xuqing, I will be moving to the General's Mansion as a guest tomorrow. You must treat me well. We agreed on this."
"..." Jiang Xinran's face wrinkled strangely, "You want her to... go to your house?"
Rong Xuqing shrugged speechlessly, "...She sang her solo very well."
