The Peerless Concubine of the King's Favorite

Chapter 355 Knowing the Autumn Banquet, the Princess’ Thoughts (4)
Sang Youqing sighed in her heart, and said a little speechlessly: "The queen of Xiliang is eyeing the prince covetously, you, the princess, are not worried at all?"

"What are you worried about? The prince has no intentions of her." Chu Qing smiled.

She felt that as long as Zhao Shenghao didn't change his mind, no monsters or goblins could destroy the relationship between her and Zhao Shenghao.So, nothing to worry about.

"I knew you would be like this." Sang Youqing shook her head with a wry smile, took Chu Qing's hand, and explained to her: "Xiliang Kingdom, the folk customs are open, unlike Middle Earth, where there are so many red tape restrictions. I learned from the book that The queen of Xiliang has more than one husband, and also raises many faces. If she likes a man, she can call him into the palace with a single order."

"So what? This is not Xiliang." Chu Qing still didn't understand.

Sang Youqing saw that Chu Qing couldn't react so well, her cheeks were flushed, and she said in shame and annoyance: "Aren't you afraid that she will fail to propose marriage, and secretly trick you, come here... let me cook cooked rice."

Chu Qing was stunned, as if he didn't expect to hear these words from Sang Youqing's mouth.

Seeing her hot cheeks, Chu Qing couldn't help laughing.

"You're still laughing, but I'm worried about you. I'm convinced that the prince will give you Chuqing, but if I give it to someone else, I'll never accept it." Sang Youqing looked at Chuqing in embarrassment, biting bit his lip.

After finally holding back her laughter, Chu Qing looked at Sang You and said, "I really didn't expect our talented girl Sang to have such a cute side."

"You!" Sang You Qing stomped her little feet under her skirt, Chu Qing was so angry that she couldn't speak.

Seeing that she seemed to be really angry, Chu Qing said: "You don't have to worry, there are so many people around the prince to protect him, and she, the Queen of Xiliang, can't get close to her. Besides, the emperor loves the prince so much, how could he be willing to let him go?" The prince married to Xiliang?"

When it came to the word 'marry', Chu Qing almost couldn't help laughing.

"So, in the final analysis, it's just the Queen's unilateral imagination. If we really pay attention to it, it seems that we are worried about her and regard her as a threat."

After listening, Sang You nodded thoughtfully.Finally sighed: "When it comes to people's hearts, I'm really not as good as you. You ignore her like this, and ignore her existence, which is the most unbearable."

It was because she thought that a high-ranking queen would be treated as nothing by others. For her pride, it was enough to drive her crazy.There is no need to be clear at all, and to do more.

Sang Youqing thinks that she can't do this kind of thing that can achieve the effect without a single soldier.

While the two were talking, the carriage had arrived at Furong Pond.

There was no guard outside, so the two had to enter together.

However, as soon as he entered the Hibiscus Pond, he realized something was wrong.

In this royal garden, there is no excitement as imagined, and it is even more difficult to see a few people.

"It's strange, I have attended the Zhiqiu meeting in the past, but it has never been so deserted like this time." Sang Youqing looked around, her tone full of puzzlement.

"Let's ask someone first." Chu Qing was also somewhat puzzled.

She and Sang Youqing were already latecomers, no matter what, there would always be noble ladies here, but right now, not to mention noble ladies, even a servant is hard to see.

The two walked around the garden and came to a palace hidden in the garden. Before they got close, a figure hurried over.

With his head down, he went on a rampage and almost bumped into the two of them.

"Oh!" When the three of them were about to bump into each other, Chu Qing raised his hand to block it, and then the person slipped and fell to the ground.

"Who are you? Why are you in such a hurry?" Sang Youqing asked with a frown.

With clear eyes, he looked at her quickly: "Seeing that you are wearing palace clothes, you must be a person in the palace. Let me ask you, can you be the eldest princess today, and hold the Zhiqiu meeting here?"

The two voices of inquiry made the little girl on the ground shake like a sieve, kneeling down and unable to get up: "The slave girl is from the eldest princess's house, the princess is not feeling well, the Zhiqiu meeting has been cancelled, and the noble girls of all families have also left. The servant girl is being sent to the entrance to inform the noble lady who hasn't arrived yet."

"Is the eldest princess unwell?"

"Zhiqiu will cancel?"

Chu Qing and Sang Youqing spoke at the same time.

A few days ago, when I saw the Eldest Princess, she didn't look like she was sick. Why was the illness so severe that the Eldest Princess could no longer host the Zhiqiu Banquet in just two days?
Two days looked at each other suspiciously, and looked at the little maid.

Sang Youqing said softly, "Get up first. Is the eldest princess here at the moment?"

The little maid rose up in response and nodded her head like pounding garlic: "The eldest princess is resting in the palace."

"You go first." Sang You pursed her lips and sent the little maid away.

After she left, Sang Youqing looked at Chu Qing and smiled lightly: "Princess, should we go home now, or visit the sick?"

Chu Qing gave her a blank look, and also teased: "Prince Concubine, you have the final say."

After all, the two looked at each other and smiled, and walked towards the palace together.

Approaching the gate of the palace, the two heard the sound of crying before the waiter waited on the side to salute.

That voice was very familiar, who else could it be if it wasn't the eldest princess Zhao Yalin?
It seems that this proud girl must have encountered something that caused her to lose control of her emotions, and she couldn't even host the Zhiqiu Banquet.

Sang Youqing pursed her lips and said to the court lady outside the palace: "Please let me know, Sang Youqing and Princess Xiaoyao are asking to see His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess."

The maid went away in response, and after a while, the crying in the palace gradually stopped.

The palace lady who delivered the message came out again, and bowed to the two of them: "Princess, princess, the eldest princess welcomes you."

Chu Qing and Sang Youqing entered the hall, and immediately saw Zhao Yalai sitting on the couch wiping her tears with a silk scarf.The maids and servants in the palace left one after another after the two entered, and after a while, only the three sisters-in-law were left in the hall.

"Your Highness, what happened? It made you cry like this." Compared to Chu Qing, Sang Youqing was more familiar with Zhao Yalin.

Originally, Zhao Yahou admired Sang Youqing's knowledge and bearing.

Afterwards, Sang Youqing was pointed out to her second elder brother whom she admired the most, who became her second sister-in-law as she wished in her heart.Nature gave the two more opportunities to get close.

When Chu Qing was traveling north and south for Jiuming, the two people who were both in the capital formed a deep friendship in private.

So, now that no outsiders were present, Sang Youqing didn't do those red tapes and saluted Zhao Yahou, but walked straight to her side, sat down, and comforted her softly.

Seeing that Sang Youqing didn't salute, and Zhao Yahou looked sad, Chu Qing was so happy that she skipped saluting, walked to the couch, and sat down on the other side that was vacant.
