Chapter 168 To put it bluntly, it's just stupid
"Yes, your majesty." Ronggui sat down flattered.
Talking with the Queen really meant what it said. The Queen asked a question and Concubine Rong answered it. No one dared to say a word more.
They talked like this for about half an hour, and then Concubine Rong stood up and said goodbye.
Queen Song sent a few boxes of snacks for Chu Ying'er to take back.
After everyone left, Queen Song asked Lu Xiang.
"What did Chu Ying'er do?"
Lu Xiang smiled and said, "When she was entering the palace, she suddenly threw a bag of things. Wu Yue stopped me and later found that it was full of spiders. It seems that the Thirteenth Princess enjoys this and is happy to see others screaming in fear. I was so excited that I pretended to stuff spiders into her clothes to scare them back. It happened that the Eighth Prince passed by and the Thirteenth Princess wanted to let the Eighth Prince make the decision, but the Eighth Prince was upright and asked the Thirteenth Princess to accompany me instead."
"Why didn't you tell me?"
Lu Xiang said, "Since the princess has apologized, let's forget about this matter. Since the queen loves you, I am not afraid of her, but I dare not take advantage of her favor and cause trouble for you. After all, she is a princess of the royal family."
This is too much. It means that the emperor does not take the royal princess seriously. Even if the queen protects her, she cannot go against the emperor.
But seeing how cautious Concubine Rong is and how bold Chu Ying'er is, I wonder who would have thought that they are mother and daughter.
The fact that she was able to raise her daughter to have such a cheerful personality shows that Concubine Rong is not a petty person. She must have been forced to compromise in order to survive in the palace.
Queen Song looked at Lu Xiang with a doting look on her face: "You have always been sensible and sensible, but if you are really wronged, you can't hold it in. Although I can't make you go to heaven, I love you more than just words."
Lu Xiang was thinking about herself and didn't want to cause trouble for her, so Queen Song felt very warm in her heart.
"I asked you to come to the palace today, but I didn't expect that you almost got into trouble. Are you scared?" Queen Song was referring to the Queen Mother's frame-up.
"As long as the queen is here, I am not afraid." Lu Xiang smiled and shook his head: "The queen mother is going to scare me, if not this time when I enter the palace, it will be the next time."
But she was not taken into account this time, and the Queen Mother probably had some big tricks in mind.
When Concubine Rong was taking Chu Ying'er back, they happened to see Chu Pan'er squatting and crying. Her tears kept falling like beads from a broken string. Her sobbing made those around her feel very distressed.
"Ninth sister, what's wrong with you?" Chu Ying'er trotted over, squatted in front of her and asked.
Concubine Rong looked at the only way back to Yuhe Palace, and a dark light flashed in her dark eyes: "Ying'er..."
As soon as she called out, Chu Ying'er turned around and said to her, "Mom, go back first. I'll talk to Sister Nine."
Rong Guiren glanced at the crying Chu Pan'er meaningfully, and said nothing more: "Okay, then you should return to the palace earlier."
"knew."
…
Lu Xiang didn't stay long and left.
It was not until he got on the carriage that Wu Yue seemed to come alive, breathing heavily.
"Miss, this really scared me to death."
The Queen Mother either does nothing, or if she takes action she will kill the young lady. She is too cruel.
Is this the first time we meet?
Lu Xiang patted Wu Yue's back soothingly.
If this happened to someone else today, they would really be framed. Because she was reborn, she knew the Queen Mother's character and was wary of her.
After all, who would have thought that the first time he met the Queen Mother, she couldn't wait to take action on him.
Wu Yue took a deep breath and frowned again, saying: "But now I have made an enemy of the Ninth Princess."
"The Ninth Princess has long harbored resentment towards me, and it would be the same whether today's incident happened or not." However, Concubine Xian and the Queen Mother were about to tear off the polite surface.
"The virtuous concubine looks gentle and kind, but I didn't expect that she is so vicious when she plots against people. They are indeed mother and daughter." Wu Yue couldn't help but mutter when she thought about how her young lady almost lost half her life.
At this moment, one cannot care that the other party is a concubine or a princess, and one is not allowed to make irresponsible remarks.
"Don't tell your grandmother too much about what happened today when you get back, or she might hear about it and get worried again." Lu Xiang warned.
Perhaps because her son was not her biological son, Concubine Xian secretly took Concubine Shu as the leader. She also felt that the Empress was incompetent without her own children, so she helped the Empress Dowager and Concubine Shu to do evil.
There are not many princes in the palace, and there are only five who have grown up, including Chu Jinyan, and none of them is simple.
Concubine Xian may have thought that Concubine Shu's second prince was the most likely person to ascend the throne, so she made a way out for herself. After all, no matter how powerful the Queen's family was, she had no son, and she could only be a queen mother or empress dowager in the future.
The real empress dowager must be the biological mother of the new emperor. If she doesn't choose the right path now, will she just wait to be feared and eliminated by the new emperor in the future?
However, Concubine Xian probably didn't really understand how ambitious her adopted son was.
Wu Yue nodded with lingering fear: "I understand."
Yuhe Palace
Because the emperor had few children, Rong Guiren, who gave birth to a daughter, although of a low rank, also lived alone in a palace. Fortunately, there were not many concubines in the harem, otherwise Rong Guiren would have taken advantage.
Yuhe Palace is not big, but Rong Guiren feels very satisfied living there with her daughter.
At this moment, she was sitting in the main hall, drinking tea absentmindedly.
Chu Ying'er came back with a stern face and sat down angrily, as if she was angry with someone.
The palace maid presented the gift and left.
Rong Guiren asked her affectionately, "What's wrong? Did the Ninth Princess make you angry?"
Chu Ying'er took a sip of tea and said, "Mother, Yanzhi, who was beside Ninth Sister, was killed by the Queen Mother."
Rong Guiren was stunned: "What's going on?"
"It's all Lu Xiang's fault." Chu Ying'er was getting angrier and clenching her fists as she said, "Ninth sister is so pitiful. A princess was bullied by a minister's daughter, but our mother just blindly sided with outsiders."
Rong Guiren put down her teacup with a changed expression: "Ying'er, don't talk nonsense."
If this word reached the Queen's ears, she would have gone to Jingren Palace to gain favor in vain. "Even though the Queen protected Lu Xiang, she is not a tyrannical person. What did Yanzhi do?"
Chu Ying'er was stunned.
Well……
She forgot to ask.
She was so busy listening to Ninth Sister complaining about Lu Xiang's wrongdoings and tyranny that she didn't ask what Lu Xiang had done to Yanzhi that she would be beaten to death by her mother.
Ronggui was so angry that he was speechless.
This brainless girl is naive to put it nicely, but stupid to put it bluntly.
She believed whatever the Ninth Princess said.
Shi Liu said that she went to scare Lu Xiang with a spider today to seek justice for the Ninth Princess...
"Madam Qin, go and ask around." Concubine Rong ordered.
Nanny Qin responded.
