The Duke’s wife is beautiful but has a dark heart

Chapter 406 Extra: He’s here to stir things up

Under Hu Fei's hard work, Zhuzhu quickly got married and became pregnant three months earlier than Wen Yu.

This time, the two of them had more topics to talk about. When they met, they talked head to head endlessly. Even if they don't meet each other every day, they still send each other girls to give things and gifts.

Hu Fei really regarded the beads as treasures, and what he ate and used was extremely luxurious. And everything was in duplicate, so Wen Yu got a lot of credit. She was in pretty good health, she only felt uncomfortable for half a month, and everything was back to normal.

He couldn't let go of Jiang Pingting, so he looked for Zhuzhu and wanted to take her to watch the draft together to support Jiang Pingting.

"When we go, any pretty girl will be compared to dirt." Wen Yu said very arrogantly.

Zhuzhu nodded: "That's right, don't let them be too arrogant in the first place!"

So, Wen Yu took Zhuzhu with her, and these two young pregnant women in gorgeous clothes were all shining. Qi Wu and Hu Fei were worried, so a crowd of people followed them.

Just based on this, can you still control the situation?
As a result... I couldn't control myself!

After Wen Yu bowed to the Empress Dowager and the General Empress, she sat down and looked at the beautiful girls below who were showing off their talents. She caught sight of the two of them with just one glance.

He couldn't help turning his head and asked the queen softly: "Where did this come from?"

Jiang Pingting chuckled and whispered back: "The one on the left is called Guo Baihui, and my grandfather once worked with my grandfather. After He Ge grew old, there was a strong demand to join the cabinet. The one on the right is called Feng Shu, and his great-grandmother is Jianye The eldest princess, her great-grandfather was the Marquis of Jingping now, but her grandfather and father are both capable."

"This is really in line with the saying: people who live in a boudoir don't know it!" Wen Yu murmured.

The Queen Mother did not come during the primary election, and today she is sitting here for the first time. At this moment, I was thinking: I have never seen or heard of such a person in Beijing’s social circles. It seems that the family deliberately hid it when the situation was unclear.

Now that the new emperor is sitting securely and young, he has released them to fight for a future for the family. No wonder the draft matter can't be pushed through. I guess these old foxes are encouraging me from behind!

Wen Yu shook his head secretly: Old fox! It seems that I have been very shallow these past few times!
Look carefully: that Guo Baihui looks like a flower of happiness in the world. The skin is thin and white, as if it has never been exposed to the sun. He has thick hair, three courts and five eyes, and is extremely upright. The smile on his face is gentle and his eyes are clear and pure. The hand is holding the pen, revealing a bright and fleshy wrist. It turned out to be a body with a small frame and flesh.

The key is that I am good at painting peonies. The colors are bright and the petals are full...the painting is just like the person.

Feng Shu... is beautiful and quiet, with a temperament like orchid. Every move she makes is natural and unpretentious. "I play the piano well and my chess skills are also good!"

Wen Yu was shocked and lost confidence, "How about compared with Yibai?"

The Queen looked at her angrily: "How many people in the world can compete with Yibai? Even the Supreme Emperor dare not watch him play chess with Mr. Hu. It consumes too much energy and I can't stand it!"

Having said that...these two women are different from me and Zhuzhu. This is really a well-established family, cultivated with care and made with money!

Looking back, the girls, who were all good at first, were suppressed and looked colorless.

The Empress Dowager was a discerning person and thought: If she enters the palace and gives birth to a son, she will be a threat to Huan Lin... There have been no children born in the palace for many years, and she is the age where she likes children the most. She is more interested in Huan Lin than Jiang Ping. Ting is not bad either.

After a few people finished reading today's content in a dull manner, they asked the show girls to get down.

The Empress Dowager did not treat Wen Yu and Zhuzhu as outsiders, and directly said to Jiang Pingting: "Queen, these two women entering the palace... I'm afraid it will cause turmoil. If you want them to lose the election, the Ai family will take action. Bar?"

Zhuzhu nodded vigorously.

Wen Zhu thought about it: It would be okay to control things first.

But Jiang Pingting said: "Thank you for your consideration, the Emperor's grandmother. However, the two of them are so outstanding, their reputation must have spread. If this continues, there will probably be people saying that we fooled the Emperor. At that time, it will cause dissatisfaction." Necessary trouble."

"But……"

"Royal Grandma, there are talented people from generation to generation. According to the rules, one is elected every four years. I don't know what will happen in the future. Just let nature take its course!"

The Empress Dowager sighed secretly: It seems that only if the son is the emperor can he be stable! "That's all we can do for now. Don't worry, with the Aijia here, no one will cross our joy!"

……

Li Qihuan finally saw the woman in the draft.

Sure enough, the two outstanding ones made his eyes light up and nodded with great satisfaction.

Now, to a large extent, he can do whatever he wants, which is a very pleasant feeling! The thought of being with such a beautiful woman soon makes me excited...

It would be nice if I could leave one for Qi Wu. However, they were from decent backgrounds and could only be concubines to Qi Wu. These two are not meant to be concubines! Except me!

He glanced at the group of girls at the back, turned around and secretly said to General Pingting: "Queen, are there any daughters of fifth-rank officials in the back who have good appearance and talents?"

"Your Majesty, these girls are all outstanding. What do you think?"

"Oh. Originally, in this draft, a concubine or something like a concubine would be selected for the young people of the royal family."

"I know this. I have consulted various governments before and have some drafts." She lowered her head and looked at the list in her hand: "How about you take a look?"

"No, no, no. Just follow the conditions I just gave you. Point to me and see."

Jiang Pingting was wondering, why was the emperor so anxious and cautious, so much more excited than seeing the two beauties?
Suspicion suddenly arose in her heart. She pretended to look at the crowd and said casually: "You mentioned some good conditions. I just don't know who the emperor... specifically pointed them to?"

Li Qihuan rolled his eyes: Humph, I didn’t tell you!

"You show me first!"

Seeing him like this, Pingting became more cautious, so she pointed at two of them.

But Li Qihuan was not satisfied: "They don't look very good either!" "Your Majesty, they may not be able to compare with Miss Guo and Miss Feng, but they are still quite good! Their talents are also very good."

"No, no, let's try another one!"

Jiang Pingting smiled: "I am not as sharp as the emperor, but it will be easier if you name the person you want to give it to so that I can see it with purpose."

Li Qihuan was in high spirits, his eyebrows were flying, his eyes were rolling around, and he had a constipated expression on his face, but he just refused to say anything.

"The most outstanding ones are the two girls Guo and Feng. I just don't know if you are willing to let them go."

Li Qihuan thought: I'm willing to give it up, but their background is much higher than that of Wen Yu. It's hard to deal with the Guo and Feng families. The key thing in my heart is, don’t talk about it, it’s not easy to choose. explain? His queen is Wen Yu's best friend, so it would be bad if he missed the letter in advance.

"No..." After he answered, he looked around the crowd again, and suddenly found a round-faced girl with a pursed smile and two dimples, looking somewhat heroic. Then he pointed quietly and asked: "Who is that little round face... the one wearing a narrow green skirt and wide-leg pants...?"

Jiang Pingting said: "Her father is a fourth-grade loyal and brave general. The girl's name is Zhang Ruonan. She is a good swordsman!"

Li Qihuan touched his chin. This girl was not bad, with a heroic appearance and a simple temperament. There is a big contrast with Wen Yu. If you can't compare, do the opposite!
That’s the idea!
He smiled like a mouse.

Jiang Pingting understood that he was plotting against Qi Wu and Wen Yu.

Sure enough, when he turned around, the emperor called Qi Wu and his wife over, and said seriously: He wanted to choose one of the beautiful girls to be Qi Wu's concubine. Fortunately, the wife is pregnant and there is no one around to take care of her.

Qi Wu was startled, and before Wen Yu could say anything, he waved his hands repeatedly: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your consideration and understanding. But I don't want this concubine!"

Li Qihuan's face darkened and he turned to look at Wen Yu: "Wen Yu, what did you say!?"

He said in a warm tone: "Your Majesty. Since ancient times, the emperor has given marriages, but how can you give concubines? You are the emperor, and you have opened the golden mouth, and I must obey. Let's do this. I will separate from Qi Yang and give up my wife. "How about you grant me the right to marry me?"

"Ayu!" Qi Wuxian said anxiously: "Don't talk nonsense!"

"Are you scaring me?" Li Qihuan narrowed his eyes, full of authority.

"I dare not, I am not sharing your worries with you?!"

Li Qihuan looked at Queen Jiang with gloomy eyes. Queen Jiang lowered her eyelids slightly and pretended not to hear.

"If I really want to relieve you of your worries, you should take it back happily!"

Qi Wu's face became unhappy: "Your Majesty, Ayu is pregnant, please don't let her worry!"

"What a joke, what's the rush? It's just a concubine. Is it possible that you won't have a concubine in your life?"

"Yes, he will never take a concubine in his life!" Wen Yu raised his chin.

"You!" Li Qihuan really didn't expect that Wen Yu would dare to contradict him like this. "What are these seven things? Huh? Do you know that you are jealous? It is natural for men to keep concubines!"

"Forcing a cow to have its head pressed when it doesn't want to drink water? Ask him if he agrees?"

"I don't care if he agrees or not? Once you get a reward, you have to take it back happily."

You and I stumbled over each word...

Finally, Li Qihuan became anxious: "Wen Yu! Don't think what's wrong with you! When he married you, it was a helpless move. He told me that if he didn't succeed with Qin Lianyue, it would be the same with anyone he married!"

"Your Majesty!" Qi Wu was shocked.

Jiang Pingting was also shocked: "Your Majesty!"

When Wen Yu heard this, he stood up and looked at Qi Yang: "Qi Yang, is this what you said?"

Everyone was shocked. Li Qihuan was very proud, "Qi Yang, tell me, did you say this!?"

Qi Yang really said that!
But at that time, one of them had not yet fallen in love with Wen Yu. The other one is obsessed with the majesty in front of him, and he can fool him with random words. There are prerequisites for this, but he is clumsy, and even after "I" tried for a long time, he couldn't explain it.

Wen Yu became angry now, rolled up his sleeves and left.

Qi Yang: "Ayu!" He went up and pulled her.

Wen Yu pushed him angrily and hit him again: "Let go!"

Li Qihuan stood up excitedly: "Why did you hit him?"

Qi Yang glared at the emperor bitterly, "Ayu, I..." Seeing that Wen Yu walked away without listening, he was afraid of pushing her harder and did not dare to pull hard. But he didn't dare to let her go like this, so he followed in a confused tone: "Ayu, it's not like that...it's really not...don't be angry, don't get so angry."

Li Qihuan pointed at their backs: "He... look at this loser, what's the big deal! Let's just reconcile and divorce her! It's amazing for her! Qi Wu and I make the decision!"

The queen said calmly: "Your Majesty, Wen Yu is pregnant, and the couple is living a good life, why do you need to interfere?!"

"What's wrong with her being pregnant? Who recruited her? It's just a concubine! What's more? Look at her temper, she beats people! What do you think of Qi Wu's potential? What are you afraid of her doing?"

"Your Majesty, why are you afraid? Can't he care about her feelings just because he likes her in his heart?"

"You!" The emperor pointed at Jiang Pingting and said anxiously: "What do you like or not! The man's family makes contributions to support the family, and the woman's family carries on the family lineage, respects the elderly and takes care of the house! Like... what does it mean to like? Huh! No wonder you two are so good. You don’t understand the rules!”

"Yes! I am not very talented, I am ugly and dull, and I am embarrassed to hold such a big position. Please choose someone else who is worthy of me, your Majesty!"

After that, the queen also left.
