My husband is a traitor

Chapter 121 Deviation, Persuasion

"Reporting to your empress... Your majesty, your majesty said that Concubine Lian is not well. He will visit Concubine Lian today, so he won't come to eat..." The room was filled with joy, and the palace maid replied with a pale face and fear. Talked.

The atmosphere in the hall froze for a moment.

The smile on the queen's face was slightly suppressed, her eyebrows and eyes were still smiling, but the corners of her lips were slightly pulled down, and her voice was unhurried, "Oh, since this is the case, send someone to send some supplements to Concubine Lian, let her How can such a weak body serve His Majesty—”

She pinched the handkerchief slightly with her fingers, and she smiled decently, "Go down."

The maid obediently agreed, and then withdrew.

"Mother's queen..." Qi Rui is still very clear about the virtues of his father, there are many young and beautiful concubines in the palace, but this Lianfei? "When did Royal Father have another Concubine Lian?"

The queen smiled, and the laughter unconsciously revealed two points of sarcasm, "It's the daughter of a previous sesame official. It has been a year since she was sent here, and there has been no trouble before. During those days when you left, you came from the hunting ground. When you come back, you will dance and sing in the imperial garden at night, so that your father can see... If you come and go, you will be favored for a few days, and you will be named a pity concubine."

As if she felt that it was not good for her to talk about the harem in front of her son, the queen paused slightly, picked up the teacup, took a sip, moistened her throat, and said with a fake smile, "Forget it, I won't tell you about this smoky thing." It's over. It's you...you don't need to care about those literati and refined guests when you come back, you should pay attention to it. Your second brother, King Yu, has been very popular with your father lately."

Patting Qi Rui's hand, the queen's tone was downcast, with a bit of sincerity, and her eyes revealed hope.

Yu Wang?

"Isn't the second brother in the fiefdom? When did you come back?" It's not that Qi Rui doesn't understand what the empress means, but he has never been very enthusiastic about government affairs. As for the fourth younger brother Yuwang Qi Lei, if he says he doesn't have any hostility, on the contrary, he is very concerned about it. .

What did the Queen not understand when she heard his tone?
Suddenly he sighed from the bottom of his heart, and there was a hint of helplessness on his face——

It's all because she raised the emperor's son too kindly and ignorant of the world, and she was completely defenseless against those wolves, tigers and leopards.

She said angrily, "Why else? His mother and concubine are also weak, and she is obviously not favored. She is sick every three days, and when she gets sick, she will go to your father and cry and say that Si'er is eager. You As for your father, your ears are soft, and with the concubine Lian - that little... little one said a few soft words, and ordered Qi Lei to return to the capital. Qi Lei came back this time, to advise your father, to do a good job in the fief A few things that were barely on the table, were praised by your father... Recently, your father has won the heart of the dragon."

The empress hated her so much that she almost blurted out the word "little bitch". Fortunately, she had acted dignified, virtuous and gentle in front of Qi Rui for many years, so she changed her words.

If Concubine Lian hadn't been meddling in her own business, how could the Emperor have remembered that there was still a son in the fiefdom?

Since she took the throne, few princes were born in this palace. The eldest princess married far away, Qi Rui only had Qi Lei as his elder brother, and the rest, except for one or two young princes, most of them were under the emperor's knees. Princess.

Now, the emperor is obsessed with beauty, Qi Lei is back, and with Concubine Lian's sudden meddling move, the empress was worried about Qi Rui's safety and had no time to take care of it, now think about it...

It's time for her to rectify this little slut who keeps trying to die in the harem and doesn't recognize her identity.

"Mother... the return of the second emperor is a good thing! He has been away from Beijing for five or six years, and it is not easy to reunite with the concubine Wen's mother and son after a long absence. The last time I saw him was at the Grand Palace Banquet two years ago Come on. This time, why not go to his house for a drink!" Qi Rui thought of the hearty and generous second brother in his impression, who always played with him when he was a child, and really missed him.

As for the queen's hint, he left it behind.

Queen:  …

Why did I give birth to such a simple son.

Seeing this, Gu Mingzhu coughed, "Auntie, I'm already hungry. Why don't we have dinner first!"

The mother and son chatted and left her aside, although Gu Mingzhu was not very happy, but when she saw Qi Rui, she smiled and said coquettishly.

The queen then changed the subject, glanced at Gu Mingzhu approvingly, and then ordered Honggu to order the kitchen to serve dinner.

Coming out of Renshou Palace, Qi Rui let out a slight breath, for some reason, facing his mother, he became more and more at a loss as to what to do.

The queen mother doesn't like the second emperor brother, he has always known this, but it is difficult for him to be a biological mother on the one hand.The queen mother is for his own good, although he doesn't think the second brother will be against him...

As far as he knew, the second emperor brother was even less interested in the throne.

"Cousin, cousin, wait for me." After lunch, Qi Rui left straight away. Gu Mingzhu said a few words to the queen, and after receiving a few words from the queen, she led her maid to follow Qi Rui's pace. Come.

Hearing Gu Mingzhu's call, Qi Rui paused, turned around, and saw a bright girl holding a wide and complicated skirt, pursing her mouth coquettishly, moving slowly when she came to the front, complaining in a tone, "Cousin When I came back, I was anxious to leave, and didn’t even talk to me.”

Qi Rui's feelings towards Gu Mingzhu were even more complicated. He was not a fool, so he naturally knew that Gu Mingzhu had indeed tripped Jiang Linlang a lot in secret.

He was angry and wanted to blame, but whenever he saw the other party's clear eyes looking at him dependently, he didn't know how to speak.

The cousin has been delicate since she was a child, and her temperament is somewhat unruly and willful. If her self-esteem is hurt, it will still be bad for Lin Lang.

"You're so old, you can't stick to your cousin all the time." Qi Rui stretched his hands behind his back, smiled slightly, and said with affection and gentleness like a big brother, "Mingzhu, you are also getting married , Cousin watched you grow up, and is also very concerned about your marriage, how is it, is there a good family you fancy? Cousin will help you look at it?"

boom -

Gu Mingzhu's smile suddenly froze on her face, she pulled the corners of her lips in disbelief, and the smile in her eyes disappeared bit by bit with the light.

"Cousin... you, what do you mean... you know..." You know that I like you!I have only wanted to marry you since I was a child!

Gu Mingzhu really wanted to yell at Qi Rui loudly, but in the eyes of the other party who seemed to know everything but pretended to be confused, her face turned pale.

"Mingzhu, when you grow up, you should know that I always treat you like a younger sister. So, don't target other people in the future." Qi Rui couldn't bear to see Gu Mingzhu being hit hard , but still stretched out his hand, stroked her hair lightly, and said in a gentle tone as if admonishing.

"My sister..." Hehe, hehe!

Gu Mingzhu suddenly stared at Qi Rui with red eyes, bit her lip, but thought like a bright mirror in her heart——

It's Jiang Linlang again!Did my cousin ruthlessly refuse her to hurt her just because she targeted Jiang Linlang!

Unable to figure it out, Gu Mingzhu turned around and ran away, wiping away tears, filled with hatred in her heart——

Jiang Linlang, I want to destroy you!
No one can rob my cousin, no one!
