Chapter 868 Prying around the Empress's wall?
"Jiaojiao, I'd say you usually think too much. If there are some things you really can't say, you can also tell Xiaobao, and let Xiaobao and the Emperor speak!"
Liu Jiaojiao shook her head bitterly, "Mom, forget it!"
"Xiaobao has helped me many times, how can I trouble her for everything?"
As soon as Liu Jiaojiao finished speaking, someone hit her forehead hard.
Liu Jiaojiao's eyes turned red with grievance.
Old Madam Liu said unhappily, "What are you talking about, girl? Xiaobao is willing to help you!"
"If she knows what you said, the little girl will be sad again!"
Yuan Baobao, who was hiding not far away and eavesdropping, couldn't help but start muttering when he heard this.
"Actually, I'm already sad!"
"It turns out that my mother has not been happy these two days!"
"It's still because of that big pig hoof of my father!"
Xiu'er, who was hiding aside with Yuan Baobao, couldn't help but slap the little princess hard with the corner of her mouth when she heard this. "How dare you say this in front of the emperor? Aren't you afraid that the emperor will twist your ears again? Your mother didn't use much force to twist your ears, but it's not certain if the emperor does it.
Forget it, it's better not to say these words. What if the emperor finds out and thinks that you are trying to sow discord between the two of them?
"Mom, I still believe in the emperor!"
Liu Jiaojiao gritted her teeth. She didn't have much confidence when she said this.
Maybe in the past, she believed in the emperor very much in her heart.
But now...
thinking about the emperor's attitude towards her, Liu Jiaojiao is not sure how much affection there is between the two of them.
[Oh, my dear mother! Others are self-indulgent, you are self-indulgent! 】
【We won’t talk about what dad was like in his last life, but he is absolutely devoted to you in this life! 】
【Why can’t you ask him if you have anything to say? 】
【I have been helping you change for such a long time, but you have returned to your old temper...】
【The main feature is that you have no mouth! 】
Liu Jiaojiao’s face turned black! Suddenly she remembered that a long time ago, when the baby was still a little kid, all she talked about was having a dumb mother and a blind father.
She finally got rid of the nickname of dumb mother, and now the little girl gave it to her again.
No, absolutely not!
The look in the eyes of Old Lady Liu looking at Liu Jiaojiao was a bit meaningful.
As if to say, look, even your daughter-in-law looks down on you?
Liu Jiaojiao blinked innocently, how did she know that the daughter-in-law was eavesdropping?
The good thing about being able to hear the daughter-in-law's inner voice is that no matter where the little girl hides, she can be found by her inner voice.
Old Madam Liu glared at her daughter again, and told her to be more careful in the future and never keep it to herself like this!
Liu Jiaojiao quickly looked at Old Madam Liu pitifully, she already knew she was wrong.
[I feel that my dad is the most wronged person here! ]
[Obviously, he did all this for the sake of his wife and daughter! ]
[But his favorite daughter was extremely smart and saw through his intention at a glance, but his wife didn't notice! 】
【My father said that he wanted to draw portraits of women of appropriate age, not for the purpose of choosing a concubine for himself, but to select a beautiful one from the children of these ministers, to be named a princess, and to go to the Kingdom of Xiwu for marriage! 】
Liu Jiaojiao...
was stunned!
She was stunned. In fact, she wanted to run out and ask her daughter what the words just said meant. Was it the one she heard?
The emperor did all this for himself.
And for their only daughter.
Liu Jiaojiao didn't want her daughter to go out for marriage, but the emperor had thought of a way so quickly.
In fact, this method is really feasible, but his own daughter is a daughter, and the girls from the ministers' families are equally precious.
If this news gets out, will the ladies in the capital still be so active?
Liu Jiaojiao sneered, and suddenly felt that the resentment that had been weighing on her heart for days disappeared.
Since her man had never thought of betraying her, why should she be unhappy?
And the emperor didn't come to see her these two days. Maybe he is still angry with her?
He obviously didn't betray her, but she is still being petty.
Liu Jiaojiao is a little regretful now. When she goes back later, she must find the emperor to apologize.
[I guess my father is still sad! ]
[My true love has been fed to the dog...]
Liu Jiaojiao wanted to say, girl, don't scold me anymore, I'm not a dog.
But after thinking about it, she wanted to know more about how to coax a man.
[When I know the answer, it will be the time for my father to be arrogant! ]
[My mother will have to coax him well by then! 】
【Or wear a very revealing outfit and go over to seduce her! 】
Old Madam Liu wanted to cough. Baby, let's not think about these messy things, okay? Let's just think about being normal.
In fact, Old Madam Liu didn't know what was normal.
It was just that she felt...
that her baby was different from others.
...
"Empress, why are you here?"
Knowing that the emperor was still in the study to handle government affairs, Liu Jiaojiao came over in person with soup to deliver to the emperor.
"I just made some soup and brought it to the emperor!"
Liu Quan laughed so hard that his eyes could hardly be seen, and he quickly said, "Empress, please come in!"
Liu Jiaojiao was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion, "Just go in like this, don't you need to report to the emperor?"
Liu Quan laughed, "Empress, you are joking, why do you need to report your coming? The emperor will definitely be happy!"
Liu Jiaojiao felt a little guilty, and Luluo Luyi beside her hurriedly said, "Empress, you'd better go in quickly, maybe the emperor is still waiting for you!"
The emperor in the study was still busy reviewing memorials, because the envoys from the Western Wu Kingdom came, and he had a lot of things to do.
The portraits that were sent were also piled aside.
Two ministers helped to watch and select ten of them who were beautiful and had good conditions in all aspects.
Among them was the Minister of Rites.
He felt bitter.
The emperor gave him such a good job, and his little granddaughter was among these portraits.
He could definitely choose his granddaughter.
But what if the emperor saw him and accused him of favoritism?
The Minister of Rites looked at the other one, who was also the current right prime minister, and winked at him.
The Right Prime Minister hesitated for a moment and winked at the Minister of Rites.
Minister of Rites: Right Prime Minister, I heard that your little daughter is also in there?
Of course, this was a silent eye contact.
Right Prime Minister: I heard that your little granddaughter is also in there?
The two smiled at each other and each chose the other's younger generation.
That's good, both children are selected. As for who can enter the palace and accompany the emperor in the end, it depends on the ability of their own younger generations.
At this time, the door of Yu's study creaked open.
The two adults were startled and turned their heads at the same time, only to find that it was the Empress!
The two adults... suddenly felt a little guilty! Are they trying to pry into the Empress's corner?
