Her Highness Doesn’t Want to Work Hard Anymore

Before the others could speak, Concubine Li couldn't wait to speak.

"As expected of Hua Jieyu's younger sister, she is really pretty, no wonder King Zhao left Han Ruren at the wedding and ran away because of you.

With your appearance and figure, let alone in the palace, even in the palace, you are top-notch. It is really enviable to look at. "

These words seem to be praising Hua Manman, but they are actually trying to bring hatred to her on purpose.

But the other concubines present were not stupid either.

They all just smiled and didn't answer.

No one wants to be used as a weapon by Concubine Li.

Hua Qingqing was afraid that her second sister would be bullied, so she immediately stood up and spoke softly.

"Thank you, Concubine Li, for your compliment. When it comes to appearance, you are the most beautiful one in the harem.

I heard that the reason why the sage gave you the title of Concubine Li was because of your delicate and beautiful appearance.

Your beauty is praised even by saints, Man Man is nothing compared to you. "

If Concubine Li's previous remarks were not painful to the other concubines, then Hua Qingqing's words now hit what they cared most about, and the expressions on their faces changed a little.

Concubine Shu chuckled, her beautiful eyes full of contempt.

Wen Zhaorong pouted quietly, disapproving.

Yichongyuan picked up the teacup, pretended not to hear anything, and drank tea on her own.

Concubine Li originally wanted to cheat Hua Manman to vent her accumulated dissatisfaction. As for Hua Manman, is she innocent? I'm sorry that this is not within her scope of consideration, the only blame is that she is Hua Qingqing's younger sister.

Unexpectedly, she failed to trick Hua Manman, and was even defeated by Hua Qingqing.

Concubine Li was extremely annoyed, but because of the empress's presence, she couldn't get angry at will, so she could only suppress the anger in her heart and deliberately pretended to be helpless.

"How many years ago did that happen? Why do you still bring it up? Now that I am an old man, how can I compare to my younger sister, who is as beautiful as a flower?"

She thought that Hua Qingqing would definitely refute her words.

However, Hua Qingqing just glanced at her hesitantly, without saying anything.

Concubine Li thought she had surrendered and she was feeling proud when she heard the queen who had been silent all this time suddenly sigh.

"If you are considered old and pale, then wouldn't half of my body be buried in the ground?"

As soon as these words came out, the audience fell silent.

Concubine Li's heart skipped a beat, she screamed that something was wrong, she said the wrong thing!

She was one of those who entered the palace relatively early, but her qualifications were inferior to that of the queen. The queen entered the palace at the age of seventeen and had been in the palace for eighteen years. She was the oldest among the women present.

No one had dared to mention words such as old age and pearl yellow in front of the queen before.

Concubine Li was so quick-talking today that she forgot about this.

No wonder Hua Qingqing looked at her that way just now.

Hua Qingqing must have guessed this a long time ago, deliberately waiting to see her joke!

Concubine Li gritted her teeth with hatred in her heart, and scolded the little bitch Hua Qingqing countless times, but she still had to pretend to be terrified and kept apologizing.

"It's the concubine who said the wrong thing. It's the concubine who has no brains. I beg the empress not to be as knowledgeable as the concubine."

The queen smiled helplessly: "It's just chatting between the sisters. You don't have to be so nervous. Besides, I know what kind of person you are, so I won't blame you for just two jokes."

Concubine Li breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, Empress Empress, for your generosity."

She sat back in her seat, but she really hated Hua Qingqing in her heart.

Little bitch, don't let her find a chance, otherwise she will definitely make Hua Qingqing look good!

The quarrel between Concubine Li and Hua Qingqing came to an end.

Everyone shifted the topic to other places, and it seemed that they didn't pay attention to the episode that happened just now, but in fact, each of them quietly strengthened their vigilance and hostility towards Hua Qingqing.

This woman not only has an astonishing beauty, but also has a brain and can speak well. I heard that she is also very popular with the Queen Mother.

No matter how you look at it, she is a very strong competitor.

For such a threatening opponent, naturally, the sooner she is eradicated, the better.

Hua Manman's mood is very complicated.

She originally thought that Hua Qingqing would not mind her business because of her plastic sisterhood with Hua Qingqing, but she didn't expect that Hua Qingqing would stand up for her just now.

With Hua Qingqing's intelligence, it's impossible for her not to know that being too sharp will make her situation more difficult.

But she still chose to stand up and defend her second sister without hesitation.

Hua Manman was surprised, but also moved.

Hua Qingqing noticed that the second sister was looking at her. She thought the second sister was nervous and scared, so she gave her a comforting smile.

Next came the part of viewing flowers.

Everyone moved to the Baicao Garden. This garden is full of exotic flowers and herbs, fragrant and colorful butterflies are flying around.

The flowers are long but I don't have the heart to appreciate the beautiful scenery.

Now she is full of worries about Hua Qingqing's next situation.

Hua Qingqing quietly walked to Hua Manman's side while everyone was admiring the flowers, and whispered to her.

"Second sister, you don't have to be afraid. With my sister, you won't be at a disadvantage."

Hua Manman snorted: "Instead of worrying about me, why don't you think about yourself?!"

Hua Qingqing looked at her with a smile: "What's wrong with me?"

Hua Manman sarcastically sarcastically.

"The verbal battle you had with Concubine Li just now was really majestic, you don't think you can get Concubine Li to admit defeat obediently after a few rounds of verbal battles?

Don't be self-righteous anymore, just relying on your few strokes is not enough to watch.

If I were you, I would be a man with my tail between my legs.

The more fun you dance in the harem, the faster you die. "

After Hua Qingqing listened carefully, the smile on her face became more gentle: "Is the second sister worried about me?"

Hua Manman was like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and immediately exploded.

She barked her teeth and clawed back.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm not worried about you! Don't be sentimental, okay?!"

Hua Qingqing covered her lips and smiled lightly, her two beautiful eyes curved into crescent moons.

The second sister is so cute.

Concubine Li pretended to be nonchalant, and approached Hua Qingqing while admiring the flowers.

When there was only one step away from Hua Qingqing, Concubine Li stopped, her gaze kept on Hua Qingqing.

At this moment, the queen is sitting in the octagonal pavilion not far away, with Yichongyuan accompanying her, the two are chatting while drinking tea, while Wen Zhaorong is accompanying Concubine Shu to catch butterflies in the garden, the two seem to be having a good time happy.

None of them looked at Concubine Li and Hua Qingqing.

Hua Qingqing noticed Concubine Li approaching, stopped talking with her second sister, and greeted Concubine Li with a smile,

Her posture was calm and elegant, and she didn't have the slightest guilty conscience that she had just cheated the other party.
