In the evening, the queen came to Ganquan Palace, and Concubine Duan led the palace people to get up to greet her.

"Sister, there is no need to be polite." The queen smiled dignifiedly and walked to the seat and sat down. "Xiao Qi did a good job this time. Sister Duan Fei must be very proud of herself recently."

Proud of spring breeze?

"I don't dare to take it." The curve of Concubine Duan's lips raised just right, perfectly hiding her complacency in her eyes, "It is Qinghuang's job to relieve the emperor's worries, and my sister will only urge Qinghuang to do his job well. It doesn’t make you feel so great.”

One mouthful of Xiaoqi, uninformed people would think that Chu Qinghuang is the daughter of her queen, why are you so affectionate?

No matter how affectionate she is, Xiaoqi is not her daughter.

The queen spoke in a gentle tone: "I heard that my sister intends to marry Xiao Qi to the legitimate son of the second wife of the Ling family. I wonder what Xiao Qi thinks of this marriage?"

Concubine Duan's expression froze, she couldn't help but pick up any pot!

The concubines behind them all lowered their heads, pretending not to hear the sharpness of these two words.

Taking a deep breath, Concubine Duan raised a gentle and courteous smile: "Sister Queen, where did you hear this gossip? Although children must obey their parents' orders for marriage, Qinghuang has a special status. As a concubine, I You can't decide her marriage on your own, the matter still needs to be decided by the emperor and Qinghuang himself."

The queen nodded slowly: "That's right. From my point of view, that boy from the Ling family is not worthy of Xiao Qi."

Concubine Duan's mouth froze.

Not worthy?

It’s up to you whether I deserve it or not?

However, the empress is the empress after all. No matter how favored Concubine Duan is over the years, she will not openly quarrel with the empress. The emperor has never had the idea of ​​abolishing the empress in more than 20 years, which shows the status of this empress in the emperor's heart.

She would not be so stupid as to leave the other party with an opportunity to be arrogant and rude in a matter as small as etiquette.

With Qinghuang here, whether it is Feng Guifei or the queen, they will only become losers in the end, and she is not in a hurry for this moment.

After chatting for only a moment, the queen stood up to leave and was greeted by Concubine Duan as a courtesy.

After the queen left, Concubine Duan turned to ask the nanny beside her: "Qinghuang has been staying in the house at night?"

"It should be." Nanny Zhao agreed, "I heard that the princess goes to bed earlier these days and stays at the princess residence at night."

Concubine Duan sat on the couch with a calm expression: "Go and tell her tomorrow that she must be spared and spared. After all, the Crown Prince of Prince Rong's Palace is also the Crown Prince of the royal family, and he is related to her, so there is no need to be too embarrassed, just treat it as a gift to Rong." The king has the same face as those county princes."

It is enough to eradicate all the forces of the Feng family and the Queen's family, so that there are no stumbling blocks for Tianzheng. As for these old princes of the clan, they cannot be moved for the time being. If Tianzheng wants to ascend the throne in the future, he will still need the full support of these old princes. .

Aunt Zhao responded: "Don't worry, I will have someone come over and talk to you later."

No need to be too embarrassed?

Chu Qinghuang said that she did not mean to embarrass anyone. Chu Xuanyi came to intercede for his useless brother. As a murdered princess, she was so merciful that she could forget the past and let the past go. She just made a small request by the way.

Chu Xuanyi knelt in the study all night. He was the one who took the blame for his younger brother. Is this considered a embarrassment?

No.

It would be embarrassing for someone to refuse to promise after punishing them.

A man should shoulder his responsibilities, otherwise wouldn't he become a coward?

"Prince Kang, Prince Qing, and several members of Prince Heping's family, I have decided to let them go today and will not pursue them again in the future. All favors will be counted on your head." Chu Qinghuang stood on the steps of the palace and looked at the people standing there. The man who looked slightly tired at the foot of the stairs said, "The three of them owe you a favor. Remember to ask them to pay it back if necessary in the future."

Chu Xuanyi lowered his eyes: "Thank you for your magnanimity, Your Highness."

"Magnificent?" Chu Qinghuang raised her lips, "You don't have to flatter me against your will. I am narrow-minded and have nothing to do with magnanimity."

Chu Xuanyi didn't speak, or rather, he didn't know how to communicate normally with the princess now.

Chu Qinghuang's thoughts are different from others, and the way she communicates with others is so straightforward that people don't know how to respond. It's as if the implicit, roundabout, and polite manners that the world is used to have no effect on her.

She is straightforward and domineering. She is obviously just a fifteen-year-old princess, but her noble and powerful demeanor seems to have already controlled the world. She is confident and aloof, and does not put anyone in her eyes.

Chu Xuanyi's heart sank, and for the first time he felt that the princess could actually be compared with the prince.
