Chapter 72 Who are you helping?
Princess Jiamin was actually the first person to attack Gu Qingning.
Qin Mingyue was very proud when she saw this. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly and she didn't even try to hide her smile.
At first she didn't know why the imperial concubine asked Jiamin to come today, but now it seemed that she understood.
Jiamin has admired Lu Jingyu for many years, and she was already angry enough after being snatched away by Shen Ruoying from the Marquis' Mansion.
Who would have thought that this orphan girl from a merchant family, Gu Qingning, would actually insist on being the wife of the young master? The proud Princess Jiamin must be even more angry.
Looking at the angry Princess Jiamin, Gu Qingning remained calm and just smiled.
"Thank you, Princess, for reminding me. Look at me. I was so stunned by the two ladies' stunning looks that I was distracted and acted rudely."
As she spoke, she stepped forward and bowed, "Greetings to the Imperial Concubine, the Imperial Concubine Rou."
Afterwards, he bowed to Princess Jin'an and Princess Jiamin.
Her posture was calm, graceful and elegant, and her salute movements were very standard.
Concubine Rou was a little confused.
Isn't it said that this merchant's orphan girl is too vulgar and unworthy of being in a refined place? Last time, the distance was far and I couldn't see it clearly, but this time I saw it up close, it was still very good.
Not only is she beautiful, but she also knows the rules. And listen, how beautifully she says it.
Concubine Rou subconsciously raised her hand and said, "Hurry up and sit down."
As soon as she finished speaking, the palace maid guarding her suddenly coughed softly. Concubine Rou came to her senses and realized that Concubine Su, who was sitting in the main seat, had not spoken yet.
Concubine Rou suddenly looked embarrassed.
Concubine Su was upset, but Concubine Rou had always been so stupid, so she couldn't get angry on the surface, so she joked:
"It seems that Sister Roufei likes Qingning very much. It's a pity that you don't have a son, otherwise Qingning could be taken into your son's room."
Although Concubine Su said this with a smile, she successfully annoyed several people.
Concubine Rou had no son, only a daughter, Qin Mingyue.
Qin Mingyue was looking at Gu Qingning with a sarcastic look and smiled coldly:
"Your Highness, please stop joking. With Gu Qingning's status, she is not even qualified to be a concubine."
"Oh, I forgot. Gu Qingning has already married the young master. Princess Jiamin, do you think my memory is too bad?"
That's a very beautiful thing to say.
He immediately took over what Concubine Su said, not only successfully squeezing and mocking Gu Qingning, but also stirring up the hatred in Princess Jiamin's heart.
Gu Qingning suddenly had an illusion. Why did she feel like Qin Mingyue was Concubine Su's daughter?
Because the two of them are exactly the same in terms of weirdness.
Princess Jiamin, who was named, muttered, "You had a serious illness, so it's natural that your memory has deteriorated."
Qin Mingyue, who was originally in a sarcastic tone: "..."
Gu Qingning sat beside him, smiling.
Although they are both royal nobles and equally proud, Princess Jiamin's personality is much more likable than Qin Mingyue's.
Concubine Su was a little disappointed when she saw that she didn't embarrass Gu Qingning.
But she never showed her emotions, so she pretended nothing had happened and asked the palace servants to put all the rare flowers on display.
It’s cold now, so the flowers we enjoy are all specially grown in the greenhouse by Concubine Su.
The flowers in Concubine Su's greenhouse are vying for beauty because she is the most favored by His Majesty, and this is also the first time.
While moving the flowers, Gu Qingning's eyes swept over to Princess Jiamin.
Princess Jiamin turned her head and said, "Hmph!"
Gu Qingning: "..."
It seems that I have to find an opportunity to appease this arrogant little peacock.
At this time, Qin Mingyue started to get angry again, "Gu Qingning, you've been here for so long, why haven't you apologized to me yet?"
Gu Qingning asked in confusion: "Princess, what apology?"
Qin Mingyue: "Why are you pretending to be stupid? Last time I brought people to smash your clinic, didn't you let the young master beat up my people?"
Gu Qingning looked aggrieved, "Yes, Princess, why did you bring people to smash my clinic?"
Qin Mingyue: “…”
Concubine Su couldn't bear it anymore, so she winked at Concubine Rou.
Today, Concubine Su specially called Concubine Rou to come and ask her to stand up for her daughter Qin Mingyue.
Concubine Rou looked at Gu Qingning's pretty face and her eyes as clear as gemstones. After hesitating for a moment, she whispered, "Gu Qingning, Mingyue definitely didn't mean it. Don't take it to heart."
Concubine Su's mouth twitched.
Qin Mingyue widened her eyes and looked at her mother in surprise.
Who are you helping?
Gu Qingning's lips curved slightly, "Empress Rou is right. It was definitely not the princess's intention to destroy my clinic. She was just instigated by someone with ulterior motives."
Who is the person with ulterior motives? Concubine Su.
Now Concubine Su could no longer sit still, and she coughed vigorously twice.
Concubine Rou turned around and asked with concern: "Sister, are you feeling unwell? Do you want to call the imperial physician to see you?"
Concubine Su took a deep breath and said, "It's okay. I just drank the water a little too hastily."
Concubine Rou: "Oh, I'm glad you're okay."
Concubine Su: “…”
At this time, the palace servants brought up all kinds of colorful flowers. Gu Qingning was dazzled and began to admire them.
The Hongmen Banquet was all about people’s problems; the flowers were innocent.
The flower viewing began. Seeing Gu Qingning looking very serious, Princess Jiamin curled her lips but said nothing in the end.
Qin Mingyue sneered, "You ignorant bumpkin!"
Concubine Su smiled and asked, "Qing Ning, you have never seen these flowers before, right?"
Gu Qingning: "To answer your Majesty, I have never seen most of the flowers here, but I have heard of them in some books."
Qin Mingyue said first: "Just brag! Otherwise, what is the name of this flower?"
"This pot is called Crystal Orchid."
"What about the basin?"
"That pot is called the Sleeping Fire Lotus, and the pot next to it is called the Golden Sand Chrysanthemum."
“…”
Qin Mingyue was very unhappy when she saw the palace maid who was taking care of the flowers confirmed everything one by one.
I asked many questions in a row, and Gu Qingning actually got them all right?
She couldn't accept this result. "It's impossible. How can you, an orphan girl from a merchant family, know so many exotic flowers and plants?"
Gu Qingning: "I have only read about it in books, but never seen it with my own eyes. Now, thanks to the Imperial Concubine, I am able to feast my eyes on it."
Qin Mingyue: “…”
Concubine Su frowned slightly, but she also knew that Gu Qingning was difficult to deal with, so she raised her hand:
"Since you like flowers, there are many more in the house next door. Feel free to enjoy them."
Gu Qingning: "Thank you, Madam."
Qin Mingyue naturally did not get along with Gu Qingning. She even left her biological mother, Concubine Rou, and went to appreciate the flowers together with Concubine Su, holding her arm.
Concubine Rou seemed to have gotten used to it. She sighed and took her maids to appreciate the flowers.
Gu Qingning was planning to look for Princess Jiamin who had left first, but ended up running into a young man in brocade clothes.
This man had a handsome face and noble air, but in Gu Qingning's opinion, there was a hint of green in his eyes, and it was obvious that he was a man who was addicted to women.
Who can enter and leave Concubine Su’s territory freely?
The other party's identity is about to be revealed!
