Chapter 212 The Tyrant Who Kills People Like Crazy x The Unfavored Concubine in the Cold Palace 28
"Do you have any impression of Mrs. Su Tiyu?"
"Su Tiyu?" Qiao Jinjin tilted her head and thought for a long time before suddenly slapping her thigh and saying, "It turned out to be him."
"Husband, don't think too much. Although I did have such a little brother when I was a child, I haven't seen him for so many years. Besides, the one I love the most now is my husband."
Despite what Aunt Qiao said, Wan Chengsi still felt unhappy. It wasn't that he was angry, but he was just upset why he was not involved when his wife was a child.
Early the next morning, Aunt Qiao painted a seductive red lipstick and went to pay her respects to the empress with her eldest son in her arms.
"Son, you must sprinkle this powder on the Queen's body..."
"Ah!" The eldest prince clapped his hands, looking very excited.
Aunt Qiao smiled, this medicinal powder was specially found by Li Fuzhong.
"Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine is here to pay her respects."
"Oh?" The Queen glanced at Cui'er who was reporting to her, and raised her eyebrows slightly. "The sun rose from the west today?"
Cui Er was also a little confused. "My queen, do you think that she might have suspected you because of Concubine Shu's poisoning?"
The Queen waved her hands nonchalantly and said with a smile, "The Concubine Shu has been poisoned, but the Concubine Gui is too happy to be happy."
"Have you dealt with the villain that I arranged to poison the concubine?"
Cui Er raised her hand to her neck and gestured, "Don't worry, Madam. Since she dared to betray you, how could I let her die easily?"
The queen nodded with satisfaction and said, "Let's go and meet this noble concubine."
There were quite a few concubines who came to Yongkang Palace to pay their respects to the Empress. Almost all the concubines who were chosen by the Empress to enter the palace came. Although they had never been favored, the Empress was behind them, so their lives would not be too bad.
"Greetings to the Imperial Concubine"
Aunt Qiao glanced at these gorgeously dressed women, walked to the front and sat down in the seat that should have belonged to her.
"Well, stand up and sit down."
"Huan'er, let me hold the eldest prince."
Huan'er took a step forward and handed the eldest prince, whose mind was spinning in all directions, to Aunt Qiao.
"Oh, it really opened my eyes that the noble concubine came to pay her respects to me today."
A strange voice sounded, which made Qiao Jinjin look up nonchalantly and said, "I heard that the Queen's place is very lively every day. I want to come and see if the Queen has any new fun to kill time."
"You..." The Queen suddenly smiled and said, "There is no new fun, but the sisters in the harem are afraid that I will be bored, so they come to me every day to cheer me up."
The queen looked at the eldest prince in Qiao Jinjin's arms, her eyes twinkling as she said, "The eldest prince looks quite strong and chubby. Has the emperor given him a name?"
Aunt Qiao wiped the saliva from the eldest prince's mouth with a handkerchief, and then said, "We have to pick three names at once. The emperor said that he will announce the names when the children are one year old."
"Son, do you want your mother to hug you?"
The Queen's eyes lit up when she heard this. Could it be that the Royal Concubine had thought it through and wanted to raise the eldest prince under her wing?
Thinking of this, the queen stretched out her hand and said, "Come, my prince, would you like to hug me?"
The corner of Aunt Qiao's mouth twitched. The current queen really looks like the wolf grandmother.
The eldest prince stretched out his little hands and threw himself into the queen's arms.
The queen was so happy that her teeth were showing. She looked down at the eldest prince who was rubbing against her arms, and felt a surge of resentment in her heart. She raised such a son just to win the emperor's favor first. When she had her own son, these princes would become stepping stones for her son.
"Sister, since the eldest prince likes me so much, can I hold him in my arms and raise him for a while?"
Qiao Jinjin covered her mouth in shock, her eyes slowly turning red. "Queen, my sister kindly asked you to hold the child, how could you have such an idea?"
"This is my sister's son. How can I let you, Your Majesty, raise him? Aren't you trying to kill me?"
The Queen's face twisted when she heard this. Aunt Qiao's words put her in a difficult position, and she felt very awkward. The Imperial Concubine did not mention giving the child to her to raise.
"It seems that I have misunderstood. Sister, please take the eldest prince away. I am afraid that I will be reluctant to let him go."
Aunt Qiao wept and took the eldest prince back into her arms, then she said, "I'm sorry, I'm not feeling well, so I'll take my leave now."
The queen opened her mouth and her face turned red with anger. When she could no longer see Qiao Jinjin, she threw the teacup on the ground and said, "You bitch, cry, cry, cry. Did I bully her?"
Cui Er quickly stroked the empress's back and said, "Your Majesty, although you didn't bully the concubine, but now that the concubine has gone back crying like this, will the emperor come to settle the score with you?"
The Queen thought so too. The Emperor doted on the Concubine so much, he would definitely believe what she said. "That's all for today, you all may leave."
"Cui'er, help me back to my room and lie down. Doctor Xuan Yu, tell him that I'm not feeling well."
"Son, that's great. The powder was applied so cleanly." Aunt Qiao couldn't help but kiss the eldest prince's fair and tender cheeks several times, which made the eldest prince blush.
Huan'er opened her eyes wide, she simply couldn't believe how quickly her queen's expression changed. She had tears in her eyes one second and a playful smile the next.
"Your Majesty, the eldest prince is so smart that I am ashamed of myself."
Aunt Qiao raised her chin proudly. Of course, her son could not be an ordinary person...
"The second prince and the little princess should be awake by now. The weather is nice today, let's take them out to bask in the sun."
Everything was going well for Aunt Qiao, but the atmosphere in the study was a little depressing.
Ah Qiheng bumped Su Tiyu's shoulder and whispered, "Why do I feel like the emperor is targeting you? How did you offend the emperor?"
Su Tiyu closed his eyes and really wanted to shut Aqiheng's mouth. There were so many people in the study room. Aqiheng thought he spoke very softly, but others could hear everything he said clearly.
Su Tiyu gritted his teeth and said, "You think too much, Prince, be careful with your words."
Wan Chengsi's ears twitched slightly, and he sneered in his heart. He said to Ah Qiheng, "The tributes from the barbarian tribes this time are all rare items. My beloved concubine will definitely like them."
"The eldest prince must be very unfamiliar with the country when he first came to the court. How about I order someone to take the eldest prince around for a tour?"
Ah Qiheng's eyes lit up. He had heard that the Chao Dynasty had countless beauties in the harem and wondered how beautiful they were. It would be nice if he could feast his eyes on them all.
"Why don't we just walk around the palace? I heard the garden has a nice view."
Wan Chengsi waved his hand at Li Fuzhong and said, "Take the eldest prince to the Yu Garden for a look."
Li Fuzhong bowed slightly and said to the eldest prince, "Please come in, eldest prince."
Su Tiyu pursed his lips tightly. He had already inquired about it. Qiaoqiao was the most favored concubine in the entire imperial harem. The emperor loved her very much. Now he was left alone here. The emperor must have known something.
