Sheng Chong Concubine

Chapter 799 Astonishing the audience, the hatred of the concubine (3)
Feng Qingli seemed to be smiling, her eyes were a little dark and unclear.

"Before you, your eldest sister was considered a strange woman."

"Why before me?"

"Because you made all the women in this hall feel ashamed."

His voice was three parts smiling, three parts proud and four parts depressed, and at the end he muttered a little bored.

"If I had known about the two of us, I would have said that I was sick at home, so that you would not be noticed here."

Qiu Mingyue couldn't laugh or cry, "Okay, don't go too far, this is the imperial palace, how many people are watching."

"Don't worry, they don't have time to pay attention to us. Today's protagonists are King Luo and Princess Xinyi."

Feng Qingli said casually, and glanced lazily at the hall.

"It's a good show today."

Qiu Mingyue leaned closer to his ear, "Grandma doesn't seem very happy."

Feng Qingli held a glass of wine to her lips, paused when she heard the words, and glanced at the upper hall.

"In this palace, anyone will make her unhappy."

There is one more thing that Feng Qingli didn't say, especially the woman sitting next to her, the most honorable woman in the Jokhang Kingdom, the Queen Mother!

Qiu Mingyue was noncommittal, "I'm just wondering, since grandma hates the palace so much, why did she enter the palace today?"

Feng Qingli lowered her head, her long eyelashes drooping down, casting a shadow under her eyes.

"A lot of things can't be solved by escaping. Grandma has stayed in this palace for most of her life, and all her love and hatred are here. After the former emperor left, she moved out of the palace, and she hasn't set foot in the palace since then."

Qiu Mingyue stared at him, feeling that there seemed to be something strange in his tone.

It was that feeling again, Concubine Rong had a secret.and--

She looked at the tall Concubine Rong and the Empress Dowager beside her.

This secret is related to the Queen Mother.

Just at this moment, a eunuch's shout came.

"The Emperor is here."

The noisy hall was silent for a while, and then everyone stood up and knelt on the ground.

"Long live the Emperor Wu, long live, long live."

Qiu Mingyue knelt on the ground, looking at the door out of the corner of her eye, Emperor Xiaoren approached slowly, walking like a tiger, dressed in bright yellow dragon pride, with a crown hanging to cover her majestic face.The invisible majesty is everywhere.

He first saluted the queen mother, who nodded with a smile.He lifted the hem of his clothes, sat down, and said to the crowd: "Everyone is flat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Feng Qingli supported Qiu Mingyue to get up, and immediately noticed the gaze of Emperor Xiaoren from above.

Exploring, sizing up, complicated, profound, and with a bit of coercion.

"Li'er is here today too."

There was a hint of smile and relief in his faint voice.

Feng Qingli had no expression on her face, "Your Majesty's imperial edict, I dare not refuse to come."

On such an occasion, this remark is somewhat disrespectful.King Luo frowned, but the other ministers didn't show much expression.Emperor Xiaoren seemed to sigh, with a bit of concern in his tone.

"I heard that you were injured a few days ago, are you feeling better now?"

Feng Qingli said lightly: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern, there is no serious problem."

"Ah."

Emperor Xiaoren seemed a little sad for his indifferent tone, "That's good."

Qiu Mingyue originally thought that Feng Qingli would mention the assassination on the street corner last time. Before that, Emperor Xiaoren ignored the matter and revealed it in a few words, but it was just to protect his majesty as an emperor and to hinder King Luo from entering Beijing.

Today's palace banquet, if Feng Qingli mentioned this matter, it would be reasonable.But what would King Luo think if he heard it in the ears of King Luo?
Of course, these things are known in private, but if they are put on the bright side, it is inevitable that the theme of today's palace banquet will be swept away, and King Yu Luo's face will be dishonored.Is he afraid of offending King Luo?Still feel that this kind of pediatric method is disdainful?

Emperor Xiaoren spoke again, but to Concubine Rong.

"The concubine has been away from the palace for many years. I haven't seen you for a long time. Both I and the empress miss me very much." Emperor Xiaoren's tone was a little emotional, and he seemed to recall something, and said: "I still remember that when I was young, the concubine hugged me."

Everyone looked at Concubine Rong, who was the only concubine other than the Queen Mother after the death of the first emperor.It is also the concubine who has been established for a hundred years and can leave the palace with her son.She was trapped in the court for half her life. She was just an inconspicuous concubine of the Xiao family in the past, and she was only a small talent when she first entered the palace.However, no one thought that she would become the most prosperous Concubine Rong in the future.Even after the first emperor left, he left the palace.

For this woman who has been away from the palace for many years, all her honors and disgraces in the palace have long been buried in the majestic palace walls.However, after 20 years, she stepped into the palace again.Seeing her, many veterans couldn't help feeling a little bit.I also remembered the bloody and killings that disappeared in the deep palace in the long river of time.

When Concubine Rong moved out of the palace, some ministers said that it was not in line with the etiquette system and strongly opposed it.But the Empress Dowager came down with a decree and blocked everyone's mouths.

The world has passed, and 20 years have passed by.Who else is whispering and sighing behind the veil about the past events in the palace?
Concubine Rong's face seemed a little stiff, and she pulled the corners of her mouth after a long while, her voice also seemed a little stiff, as if she hadn't spoken for a long time.

"The Empress Dowager Lao and the Emperor miss you."

After only a few words, he stopped talking and looked down blankly, not knowing what he was thinking.

Emperor Xiaoren smiled as if he didn't care, and suddenly said: "It's rare for the concubine to enter the palace, so it's better to stay a little longer, so that I can recount the years of sisterhood with my mother."

Concubine Rong's face became even stiffer, and she didn't even know how to speak.

The queen mother sighed, "Forget it, there are so many people in this palace, and Su Xin probably doesn't like it either. But Aijia still hopes that you can often enter the palace to accompany Aijia in the future. The emperor is busy with state affairs, so there is no one to talk to. There is no one. Ai’s family is old, and I don’t know how many years to live. In the past, we two sisters had the best relationship at home.”

For some reason, Qiu Mingyue felt that when the queen mother said this, guilt and complexity flashed across her eyes.

She frowned.

Concubine Rong's complexion became indifferent and even a little indifferent, "The queen mother is joking, the emperor is busy with state affairs because the emperor cares about the world and the people's livelihood. It is a blessing for Dazhao and the people of the world to have such a wise monarch. .Besides, the Empress Dowager is deeply blessed and will live a long life. There are countless concubines in this palace, and there are even empresses sitting in the harem, so how can the Empress Dowager be lonely?"

There seemed to be a bit of sarcasm in the corner of her mouth, and she said lightly: "Su Xin has always remembered the kindness of the Queen Mother back then, so she was able to enter the palace as a concubine and accompany the holy car."

These words seemed to be respectful, but in fact they were quite ironic, and the atmosphere became a little stiff for a moment.
