Chapter 410 Threatening With Death (3)
"I think Miss Xuan is extremely smart. Since she dared to send out the accompanying incense and qin, she obviously has the confidence in her heart, and her children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Don't worry about it so much. Just take care of yourself. Isn't he tall?" Nanny Zhang said with a smile.

Mrs. Lu said: "I think Meng Qi also said the same thing to Miss Xuan, otherwise she wouldn't suddenly have the idea of ​​sending out the accompanying incense and the piano. Forget it, which girl never thought of 'one pair for life and one pair' in her heart before she got married. What about people's thoughts, I'd better not break her thoughts, let her be happy for a few more years, if Meng Qi really dares to have second thoughts in the future, let me be the villain for her!"

Apparently, both Mrs. Lu and Nanny Zhang thought that the reason why Lu Mingxuan sent out the accompanying incense and accompanying the piano was because she didn't want the two of them to be Ling Mengqi's roommate in the future, but they didn't know that Lu Mingxuan was not afraid of this at all. Ling Mengqi doesn't even have this basic trust, so she doesn't have to be with him!

At that time in the Chonghua Hall in the imperial palace, Concubine Luo retreated away all the attendants, and was also talking to Citron about Ling Mengqi's and Lu Mingxuan's marriage.

"...Look at this pearl bracelet. Miss Lu was born white, so she must look good wearing this bracelet... What about this box of pearls? She is young, and it is time for her to dress up beautifully. A set of clothes is perfect...and this pair of gold inlaid jade bracelets, if she wears them when she goes out as a guest, she will definitely suppress everyone's limelight."

Citron saw the elation on his mother's face, and the jewels he picked were all priceless treasures, especially the box of pink pearls, which was bought in Hepu last year, and there was only such a small box in total, Your Majesty At that time, the empress was all rewarded, not even the queen, and the empress was always reluctant to let the secretary of the interior make jewelry to wear, saying that she would keep Princess Baoyi as a dowry in the future, but she did not expect that she would not miss it now. I took it out and planned to give it to Miss Lu.

"Your Majesty, these things have built-in marks, and all of them are priceless, I'm afraid it's not good to reward Miss Lu..." Citron had no choice but to interrupt his mother's words, and also reminded his mother in disguise, Yuan My elder brother's surname is Ling, but she is the noble concubine today, two people who can't fight each other, why should she reward Miss Lu?

Concubine Luo Guifei and Citron's master and servant for decades, how could she not understand what she meant, she suddenly lost face, and then threw the gold inlaid jade bracelet back into the box in a dispirited manner, regardless of how hard it would be. He won't break the bracelet, so he just laughed at himself: "Yes, these things have built-in marks, how can I reward Miss Lu, and why should I reward Miss Lu?"

After finishing speaking, she pursed her lips and remained silent for a moment, then said in a low voice: "I was just thinking, Brother Yuan finally got what he wanted, and as a mother, I should prepare some meeting gifts for my daughter-in-law. But he forgot that I am not worthy to be his mother, and he will never recognize me as a mother..."

Hearing this, Citron couldn't help feeling sad, thinking of how happy and happy her own mother was when she suddenly heard that the third prince was a matchmaker for Brother Yuan to marry a girl from the Dingguo Duke's mansion, and then Pushing everyone away, she happily picked up her jewelry box... If it was possible, she didn't want to spoil her mood and pour cold water on her head, but the current situation is obviously that the emperor wants her mother to treat Yuan Geer Don't ask, Yuan Ge'er himself avoids his wife like a snake and a scorpion, so what can she do if she doesn't become this villain?
"How about that?" Citron couldn't bear to see Concubine Luo so depressed. After thinking about it, he suggested, "It's inconvenient to give it to Miss Lu, but we can give it secretly. After a while, I will let Xiao Lizi out of the palace." , send all these things to Miss Lu... From the look of Miss Lu, she seems to know everything, and I think I should be able to understand the painstaking efforts of the empress."

Concubine Luo instantly had hope in her eyes: "Is this okay? What if she refuses? After all, it's all my own fault. If it wasn't for me back then..., now I wouldn't want to give my future daughter-in-law It's even more extravagant to want to drink a cup of tea from my daughter-in-law..."

"What is an extravagant hope?" Before he finished speaking, a familiar voice suddenly sounded from the door, and then the emperor in a bright yellow dragon robe walked in.

Concubine Luo's heart skipped a beat for an instant, and she didn't know how much the emperor had listened to what she and Citron had said just now. After saluting to the emperor with Citron, she ordered Citron: "The slaves outside are so ignorant, the emperor is here If you don’t even know how to pass it on, I won’t be able to welcome the holy driver in time, so you go out and pass on the word to me, and beat all the servants in the class twenty boards, so as to make an example of others!”

Citron hurriedly bowed his knees to answer, and retreated, the emperor said: "I didn't let them pass it on, I just wanted to hear what your masters and servants said when they kicked everyone out in broad daylight. By the way, what did you say just now, what is more extravagant hope?"

Concubine Luo dared to let the emperor know what her master and servant had said just now, because she smiled and said: "I didn't say anything, but when I was talking with Citron about the things that the emperor rewarded in the past, I sighed in vain. Put any of these good things in the same place." , it’s all extravagant hope... By the way, where did the emperor come from?"

The emperor took a deep look at Concubine Luo Gui, then took her hand and said: "Xixi, I remember that I told you more than once that you can do things to anyone, but you don't have to defend me, because I am the only one in this world. The person who loves you the most, have you forgotten what I said?"

Letting myself not have to defend against him, but calling herself 'Zhen'... Luo Guifei heard the words, how could she not know that the emperor had actually listened to what she and Citron had said, and was beating her now?

I had no choice but to purse my lips, and said in a low voice: "Then I've told the truth, the emperor can't be angry, I and Citron were picking a gift for Brother Yuan's daughter-in-law just now, after all, this is a major event that only happens once in his life. His mother and son... I thought that I had to express myself more or less to be decent, and I asked the emperor not to be angry, Citron had already persuaded me, and I had given up on this stupid idea..."

Seeing that Concubine Luo Guifei had told the truth to him, the emperor's expression softened a lot in an instant, he took her hand and pulled her into his arms, and said: "It's human nature for you to want to give that girl a few things. Chen is right, those things are all made in-house, and they are priceless, so it’s not convenient to reward people casually, just like this pair of bracelets, I remember that Bao Yi asked you twice and you didn’t give it to her, if you let her know you What do you make her think when you reward someone else? Otherwise, Zhen Ming will announce the old Duke Ding into the palace, and in your name, quietly reward the girl with a Zhuangzi, and say to the outside world that the old lady Dingguo gave it to you. Treat her as a gift from you, how about you?"

Concubine Luo was surprised and delighted at what she said, and even stuttered a little: "The emperor, what the emperor said is true, isn't it just to trick me?"
