Palace scheming: Empress Leng Palace

Chapter 37

Hearing this, besides Yun Qing, He Ruowan was also shocked.

Because the emperor had promised her before, he was only willing to take her to visit the lanterns and guess lantern riddles alone tonight, and let the nominal queen stay in the palace alone.

but……


Her expression darkened, and she stretched out her hand to pull Xuanyuan Ze who was at the side, implying that he rejected the Queen Mother's request.

Xuanyuan Ze turned his head and glanced at her, and was about to speak, but someone took the first step, which made his already secretly unhappy heart worse again.


"Empress Dowager, Yun Qing has no talent, and has always been very clumsy at guessing lantern riddles. Why don't you ask the Empress Dowager to let Concubine Hua take her place, and Yun Qing will accompany the Empress Dowager to stroll around the lanterns?" Yun Qing took a step forward, leaned slightly towards the Empress Dowager, and looked With a gentle smile on his face, he tried his best to look worried about the task of guessing riddles.


In fact, Yun Qing was very clear about her position in Xuanyuan Ze's heart, if she accompanied him, it would only make him hate her even more.

Although she didn't want to win his favor, if he disliked her too much, then she would not even be able to maintain the current stable life.


Not to mention the threats from her father, but for Bi Tao who has been doing her best for her, she really can't bear to let her always suffer with him.

Therefore, she would rather avoid this kind of meaningless and force-free relationship as much as possible.


"Is that so..."

"Does the empress want Tianque's tradition to be changed because of you, and the Tianque royal family to set a precedent for you?" The empress dowager's hesitation was interrupted by Xuanyuan Ze blurting out, and the slightly angry voice also made He Ruowan's complexion change drastically, she was extremely shocked The ground froze in place.


Yun Qing turned her head in surprise to look at Xuanyuan Ze who had an angry expression on her face, and saw that his eyebrows were tightened, as if he was very annoyed at his polite refusal.

I don't understand in my heart, I want to fulfill their good intentions, why is he misunderstood?What's more, this so-called precedent was broken by him himself as early as the wedding day!

"Yun Qing dare not!" Lowering her eyes, she was unwilling to accept his unreasonable glaring, and said lightly: "If the emperor does not think that Yun Qing is ignorant, then Yun Qing will do his best to follow."

She chose not to argue anymore, anyway, if she said one thing, he would say another.If she said two, he had to do one again!

That being the case, she should have been an ostrich that didn't know anything about the world, hiding her head under her wings, avoiding everything.


The atmosphere was intense from the beginning, and gradually faded to cool.Everyone had heard about the Queen's fall from favor for a long time, but seeing her today was an eye-opener.

Whether it's the distance between the two or the tone of their conversation, they are all colder than strangers, more like enemies than enemies.


"Hehe, it's the best. The emperor and empress are with him. This is what the people of Tianque like to see." The queen mother smiled, her loving eyes swept over Xuanyuanze, as if she didn't see his anger, she gently pulled He Ruowan : "Wan'er will accompany Aijia tonight, and let Aijia see my talent as the number one talented woman in Tianque.".


"Yes, Wan'er obeys." With a ball in her heart, He Ruowan reluctantly saluted Situ Xianyu, then stared at Xuanyuanze with extremely gloomy eyes.

But at this moment, Xuanyuan Ze didn't notice her mood anymore, and he still only stared at the woman whose head was staring at the ground, her handsome eyes were deep.
