Fang Hua raised her eyebrows and smiled when she heard this. "Oh, Sixth Sister-in-law has impressed me. Okay, let's see what the result is. Haha, interesting."
After saying that, he took another light step forward, "You were wrong just now. It's not that I don't like you, it's that I hate... you."
After saying that, he chuckled, turned around and limped away.
Meng Qi looked at Fanghua's back, and the decision to make friends with Fanghua became clearer and clearer. Moreover, Fanghua still protected Song Chengze, which was very good.
At this time, almost everyone had arrived. Except for the concubines above the rank of concubine, everyone else was sitting there chatting in groups of three or four.
Meng Qi walked towards her seat and saw Princess Aihua and Song Nongyu sitting there talking. The Crown Princess looked at her only daughter with a loving face.
"When did the Crown Princess arrive?" Meng Qi asked while bowing.
"I just came over. I was halfway there when Aihua remembered she had forgotten to take the bracelet she wanted to give to Nanyue, so she went back to get it. I saw you chatting happily with your fourth sister-in-law and Fanghua. What were you talking about?"
Meng Qi first accepted Princess Aihua's gift and looked at the little girl who was obviously suffering from deficiencies.
The prince originally got married late. I don’t know whether it was intentional by the queen or it was true as she said to others that she had never chosen a wife worthy of the prince. In short, he married the prince’s consort when he was twenty years old.
After getting married, the Crown Princess still couldn't get pregnant. At first she thought it was her own problem. She stopped giving the contraceptive soup to the concubines, but there was no good news.
When the Crown Princess was exhausted, she finally became pregnant. Perhaps because of the excessive medication and the heavy burden, Princess Aihua was born prematurely, the size of a cat. This is the royal family, with the rare treasures and the best medicines, that helped Princess Aihua to be raised.
The Crown Prince, who is 38 years old this year, has an only daughter who is only 14 years old.
Although Princess Aihua is of noble status and is not much older than Fanghua and Yongan, she never plays with them.
The emperor also has two little princesses who are the same age as Song Nongyu. Aihua is not close to them, but likes to chat and talk with Song Nongyu, with the mentality of a complete child.
"It was Fourth Sister-in-law. She asked Fanghua how she planned to celebrate the Queen's birthday. It turns out Fanghua had prepared a small game. That's quite novel."
"Oh? I don't know. I've asked her several times, but she always looks mysterious. I don't know where she gets these ideas from, or how to make the game."
Meng Qi looked at the bracelet Song Nongyu handed her and kept praising Aihua for her good taste and beautiful color matching. The little girl had a deficiency and a quiet temperament, so she usually liked to play with these small accessories.
"Who knows where she got this trick from? Just now, Fourth Sister-in-law said not to do anything running and jumping around. If we really were to go up there, who would be able to handle it?"
The Crown Princess smiled and said, "No, even if there are running and jumping activities, they are probably for the children."
Meng Qi snorted softly, "I don't know what she's thinking. Yong'an didn't say anything, but she's been eagerly arranging things. She even said just now that if she asks me to play games later, I won't refuse. Humph, if she dares to embarrass me, I'll see if I can save her face."
The Crown Princess smiled upon hearing this, "You're talking nonsense again. What kind of occasion is this today? If you really did that, you'd probably be grounded soon."
Meng Qi shrugged. "They're both so boring, waiting to see me laugh. I don't believe they've never been scolded by their elders, and now they're all picking on me. What's the logic behind this?"
The Crown Princess gestured to Meng Qi to lower her voice, "Why are you so angry? When elders preach, we should just listen. If we're wrong, we should correct it. If we're right, we shouldn't argue. Time will tell. I don't know why Concubine Lian got so angry with you that day, but later, when you told Sixth Brother to lose face in front of all the princes, it was your fault, wasn't it?"
Meng Qi wanted to say something, but she saw Aihua and Song Nongyu looking at her, so she simply shut up. "Crown Princess, please watch carefully. If Fanghua or my second sister-in-law wants to do anything to me, you have to help me."
The Crown Princess shook her head. "What are you thinking about? Everyone here today is here to please the Emperor and Empress. If we really play games later, don't be shy. Just do what others do."
Meng Qi wanted to say something else, but she heard the female official singing, "The Emperor and the Empress have arrived."
The empress was wearing a bright red court gown and walked beside the emperor with a happy look on her face. Behind her followed the princes and several concubines. Meng Qi saw that Concubine Lian was also among them.
