Chapter 57: The Queen Mother Invites You to Come Over



"What don't you understand?"

The emperor saw Qiao Yuange standing there with a strange look on his face, which really made him a little curious.

Qiao Yuange was still frowning as she thought about this situation. When she heard the emperor asking her, she didn't think much about it and said, "Why don't these concubines like you? Is there something wrong with you?"

emperor:"……"

Speechless.

"That's because these women have problems with their brains! Of course, I'm not a petty person. If they don't like me, what else can I do?"

The emperor actually portrayed himself as a rather pitiful person at this time.

But Qiao Yuange was very surprised and turned around to ask, "What about His Highness? I remember that His Highness wanted to hang himself!"

"This..." The emperor was so embarrassed that he was paused there for a moment. He coughed and said, "Can't I be a little more vulnerable? Can't I vent a little?"

The emperor looked so aggrieved, as if he was about to cry.

Qiao Yuange hurried over, as if coaxing a child, and said to the emperor helplessly: "Okay, okay, Your Majesty, I can completely understand your mood!"

The emperor looked a little pitiful at first, but after hearing what Qiao Yuange said, he suddenly understood and asked, "You mean, you've also been cuckolded?"

This time it was Qiao Yuange's turn to be speechless. Was there something wrong with the emperor?

Seeing that the emperor had no mood to argue with the empress dowager, the eldest nanny lowered her head and was thinking about how to explain to the empress dowager, when she saw the nanny beside the empress dowager come over. She first saluted the emperor in a humble manner, and then said to Qiao Yuange, "Qiao girl, the empress dowager is looking for you."

Qiao Yuange already had a lot of troubles on him. First, he offended Shu Fei because of Wen Huan.

Now, probably because he did not help Fang Yuan and Concubine Yi to have dinner with the emperor, the Queen Mother did not complete the task assigned to Qiao Yuange, and she is probably here to hold him accountable.

Qiao Yuange quickly took a step back and shook his head in embarrassment.

She had never been that afraid of the Queen Mother before. After all, she was serving the Emperor at the time. Even if the Queen Mother had long arms, could she really reach the Emperor?

It’s a pity that she is not the emperor’s lover, and the emperor will not speak for her at this time.

Seeing Qiao Yuange's pale face, the emperor took a step forward and said to Nanny Xi, "The Queen Mother is looking for my maid? Did she say hello to me first? She didn't even say anything, and she actually wanted to take Qiao Yuange with her?"

The expression on Auntie Xi's face froze.

Didn't the emperor know that Qiao Yuange was the Queen Mother's lover? Everyone knew that Qiao Yuange was a spy, but he still stood on Qiao Yuange's side?

What's wrong with the emperor? Is it just because Qiao Yuange is pretty that he can tolerate her even if she is a spy?

Nanny Xi smiled faintly but said in a very distant tone, "Your Majesty, please let me take Miss Qiao away. If we delay any further, it will be even more harmful to Miss Qiao."

Qiao Yuange raised her eyes. She seemed to be indifferent to these things before, but this time she really felt the danger.

She first glanced at the emperor, and when she saw him standing in front of her, she suddenly didn't know what to feel.

Since this situation cannot be avoided, it is better not to drag the emperor into it.

She came out from behind the emperor and said to Madam Xi, "Madam, come in."

Auntie Xi nodded with satisfaction and walked in front.

Qiao Yuange followed behind, and the two of them left quickly.

After watching the two people walk away, Li Xiaoxiao came over, took a breath, and said to the emperor: "Your Highness, the Queen Mother called Qiao girl away. I guess she will teach Qiao girl a lesson severely. What should we do?"

The emperor couldn't help but ask, "Why did you teach Qiao a lesson?"

"You know that although Qiao girl is sometimes tough-mouthed, she is actually kind-hearted. Even if she knows some secrets, she will weigh the pros and cons and will not tell others on her own initiative."

"The Queen Mother sent Qiao Yuange over because she wanted all kinds of information, but she couldn't find out anything. Of course, she would think that Qiao Yuange was playing a trick on her, and of course she would be angry."

Li Xixi clenched his hands tightly together, obviously very worried about Qiao Yuange.

The emperor stood there, looking a little confused.

He seemed to have his soul sucked out, and asked, "Why do you think Qiao Yuange won't say anything?"

Li Xixi made a sound of sighing. The emperor was not such a stupid person before.

"Your Majesty, if Qiao was a mean girl, she would have told you or the Queen Mother about the affair between Concubine Qi and Concubine Shu. This news is so explosive! But Qiao didn't do it, saying that she didn't want to force these two women into a desperate situation."

The emperor lowered his head, looked at the ground, gritted his teeth, and finally couldn't bear it anymore. He said to a bunch of grass next to him: "Fengming, go to the Yangxin Palace and see what the old thing the Queen Mother wants to do!"

The bushes next to them moved, and a figure flashed away.

Li Xixi and the eldest nanny looked at each other, and they both seemed to think that there was something really wrong with the emperor.

Not to mention that the emperor lost his composure in front of Qiao Yuange, when it came to Qiao Yuange's feelings, the emperor seemed to have lost his intelligence.

Of course, the emperor's original intention was to take the enemy by surprise.

Hall of Mental Cultivation.

The Queen Mother was supported by Concubine Xi. In front of the Emperor and other outsiders, Concubine Xi had a cold personality, like a queen.

But when it came to her aunt, the Empress Dowager, she was like a little girl without any opinion. She held the Empress Dowager's arm and said with a hint of grievance: "You don't know, the emperor didn't eat with us at all, but talked a lot with Qiao Yuange. The relationship between the two is very different."

"Aunt, you sent Qiao Yuange to the emperor. Did you use a beauty trap?"

Although Concubine Xi doesn't like the emperor, she is still the emperor's woman after all, and Qiao Yuange has no fame at all, so why can she get the emperor's attention?

The Queen Mother was already sitting on a chair in the main hall, looking straight ahead, as if she didn't care at all about what Concubine Yang said.

On the contrary, she attached great importance to Qiao Yuange: "I didn't expect Qiao Yuange to have such ability? It is true that the girl is very good-looking, but the emperor knows that she was sent by me, so why would he still pay attention to her?"

Seeing that the Queen Mother seemed to have not heard her, Concubine Xiao immediately said anxiously, "Aunt, what if the Emperor really likes Qiao Yuange?"

The Queen Mother's eyes suddenly lit up, and she turned to Concubine Xiao and said jokingly, "Don't you dislike the Emperor?"
