But at this moment, Xiao Qingluo spoke.
"Your gift is indeed too cheap. Compared to what His Royal Highness gave you, it's truly not worthy of being presented."
Xiao Qingluo looked the official up and down, then sneered, "Don't give me such a shabby gift next time."
"you!"
The official just continued his self-deprecating words and spoke for Lu Changgong.
But he didn't expect that Xiao Qingluo would be so blind.
He actually spoke like that directly.
He was speechless for a moment!
So she could only use this as an excuse to yell, "Whose maid are you? How can you have the right to speak here?!"
As soon as these words came out, a cold light flashed in Lu Changgeng's eyes!
Xiao Qingluo smiled faintly and said, "I'm a maid? Have you ever seen His Majesty personally decree a marriage between His Highness the Sixth Prince and a maid?"
"What?!"
Not only the official who was roaring, but a group of people screamed out in shock at the same time!
They obviously didn't expect that the woman in front of them was Lu Changgeng's fiancée!
The eldest daughter of the Xiao family, Xiao Qingluo!
At this moment, their faces changed slightly, and they didn't know what to do!
But he saw that the officials in his own prince's party were overshadowed by Xiao Qingluo.
He immediately frowned and said, "Sixth brother's wife, he is an official appointed by the court, the Minister of Rites Qin Zhongbao. How can you, a woman, be so disrespectful to him?"
"Oh? Another one from the Ministry of Rites?"
Xiao Qingluo glanced at Qin Zhongbao in surprise, then laughed and said, "No wonder, they're just like the Minister of Rites and his family, all speaking so rudely. Turns out they're of the same blood, from the same nest."
"you!"
How could Qin Zhongbao have imagined that Xiao Qingluo could speak so powerfully!
These words are as sharp as a knife!
He was an official appointed by the imperial court and also the Minister of Rites.
His rank was just below that of the Minister of Rites.
Logically speaking, people who can reach this position are much more eloquent and cunning than ordinary people!
But he found that he couldn't say anything in front of Xiao Qingluo!
It's completely like a small witch compared to a big witch!
Xiao Qingluo's tongue really made him hate him, but he
Can't do anything to Xiao Qingluo!
Hearing Xiao Qingluo's words, the emperor beside him had a look of surprise on his face.
Then, the corners of his mouth raised up into an extremely tiny arc, barely perceptible!
Everyone's eyes were on Xiao Qingluo at this moment, and no one noticed the changes on his face!
"Sixth brother's wife, be careful with your words!"
Lu Changgong scolded, "Is the Minister of Rites someone you can discuss?"
Lu Changgong used a tone of reminder to teach Xiao Qingluo a lesson.
Xiao Qingluo heard this and raised a disdainful smile: "What can't be said?"
Just then.
Outside the courtyard, the servants' voices were heard.
"The Minister of Rites has arrived!"
In an instant, everyone turned their heads and looked outside the courtyard door.
There was a look of surprise on their faces.
Speak of the devil and he will appear!
Now it’s time to watch some fun!
Minister of Rites Sun Changyuan walked in with Sun Ru and came to the courtyard.
The two bowed their heads and said, "Your Highness and I pay our respects to the Emperor, the Empress Dowager, the Crown Prince, and the Crown Princess!"
The emperor nodded, and the queen mother said directly: "Get up."
Sun Changyuan and Sun Ru then stood up.
As soon as Sun Ru stood up, she saw Xiao Qingluo.
In an instant, a cold look flashed in his eyes!
"Why is it this guy again!"
“What an eyesore!”
"And you just dared to say that about my dad!"
Thinking of this, Sun Ru sneered in her heart.
"Everything that bitch said just now was clearly heard by my father. Let's see what you will do this time!"
As soon as Sun Ru's thought came to mind, Sun Changyuan turned his gaze to Xiao Qingluo the next second.
Sun Changyuan was obviously very shrewd. He looked at Xiao Qingluo without any strange expression on his face.
He bowed to Lu Changgeng and Xiao Qingluo and said, "Greetings to His Highness the Sixth Prince, and to His Majesty the Sixth Prince's Consort."
Seeing Sun Changyuan like this, Xiao Qingluo narrowed his eyes slightly, but a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
This Sun Changyuan is indeed a capable person who can hold a powerful position.
This cunning alone is something that many dignitaries cannot achieve.
Owned?
Lu Changgeng nodded lightly, his expression calm.
But his fingers began to tap rhythmically on the wheelchair.
Waiting with great interest to see how Xiao Qingluo would react.
Xiao Qingluo looked at Sun Changyuan and said with a smile, "So this is the Minister of Rites, Lord Sun. Seeing is believing. Seeing him today, I can see that he is indeed quite cunning!"
puff--
Very cunning? !
What kind of praise is this?
If this were said in private, it would be considered a compliment!
But saying such things in front of the emperor, wouldn't that arouse his suspicion?
Moreover, in the court, this was not a compliment at all, but an insult!
For a moment, Sun Changyuan's face turned dark.
He immediately said, "Sixth Prince's Consort, I wonder if you have any misunderstandings about me?"
"What misunderstanding?"
Xiao Qingluo said with a bewildered look on his face.
That look is like, I'm clearly praising you?
Xiao Qingluo was silent for a second, then asked in surprise, "Could it be that you think I'm wrong? Lord Sun, do you think you're just a mediocre person without any scheming? Lord Sun, don't underestimate yourself. You should be good at discovering your own shining points!"
