The queen kept praying in her heart, hoping that the Buddha would forgive her evil heart. Suddenly, the clock hanging on the wall of the hall rang the time.
It's noon.
It's time to go to that damn bird-watching banquet at Xuanyang Palace.
Zhao Ying took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and did not forget to comfort the queen, "Mother, don't worry, I am here to take care of everything. I will definitely protect you."
The queen looked at Zhao Ying with emotion. She was still her little cotton-padded jacket!
"The Queen Mother knows."
After the mother and daughter finished decorating, they were about to set off for Xuanyang Palace. Zhao Ying sent someone to call the children, but the palace servants came back and said, "The young masters said that you and the Queen should go first, and they will go later!"
Zhao Ying nodded, and the mother and daughter went to Xuanyang Palace.
When I arrived, I found that there were not only concubines from the inner palace, but also several old and important ministers, such as the old Duke, Shangguan Shu, Zhao Xi, Prince Liang and more than a dozen other men. Of course, there was also Emperor Jianxi, but he had not arrived yet.
When everyone saw them coming, they paid their respects.
In front of everyone, even if Concubine Gang was unwilling, she had to show respect to Queen Jinzhong.
The two top positions were originally occupied by Concubine Gang and Emperor Jianxi respectively, but because Concubine Gang insisted on inviting the Queen, she had to give up her seat.
A fierce light flashed in Concubine Gang's eyes, and then she had a chair placed on the other side of Emperor Jianxi, as if there were one emperor and two empresses.
Everyone saw it and felt emotional, but they didn't show it at all. They were all respectable people who were high up in society, so how could they do such petty and shameful things in public?
In order to vent the Queen's anger, Concubine Rong brought a group of concubines to surround the Queen and show her care and concern. Concubine Gao was so angry that she immediately called the Duke of Zhenguo and his son.
Thanks to Concubine Ge, many people close to the emperor knew the inside story.
Not to mention the old Duke and Shangguan Shu.
"Shifan, long time no see."
"When we parted, you were still unmarried. I never thought that your eldest son would be this big now."
Concubine Gang had a young face and looked at Shangguan Shu with loving eyes. Her tone was old-fashioned and she tried to be close to him.
When Concubine Rong heard the voice, her back stiffened. Was she an old acquaintance of her brother?
The old Duke looked calm on the surface, but he was laughing in his heart. Hahahahahaha what the hell is going on? Wei Zhen is still alive and keeps saying that the emperor loves her the most?
Doesn’t he know how the emperor treats her?
"This old minister really never thought that he could see the young lady in his lifetime. The emperor's infatuation towards her is worthy of his kindness..." The old Duke wiped his eyes with his sleeves pretentiously.
Zhao Ying almost choked on her tea. What...what does this mean?
She began to doubt her own judgment.
Across from her, Shangguan Shu, who had never taken his eyes off her, shook his head imperceptibly at her.
