The ruffian girl's palace: the sky-high concubine

31 Chapter 5 Surprised by Heaven and Man [-]
Putting all the delicious food in front of me, and secretly giving me a flirt, I was so moved, I felt that Aunt Liu was a reborn parent.

After dinner, King Chu Yang and Xia Houqing left, leaving me to gossip with the Empress Dowager. There is plenty of food in the Empress Dowager's palace, so I am happy and relaxed.

"Uncle Emperor, what do you think of this new queen's character and scheming?" Xia Houqing asked Chu Yang Wang impatiently not far from Ci'an Hall.

"From my point of view, she should be not very scheming." King Chu Yang frowned tightly, and analyzed rationally: "What she said is sound, but it seems that there are no such shrewd people. Regarding her observation, she is very ignorant and confused, she only knows how to eat and drink."

"But now it seems that she is a very smart woman, isn't she?" Xia Houqing frowned even more, feeling a little worried.

"Yes." King Chu Yang pondered, "Since she fell into the lotus pond last time, she seems to have changed."

"Could it be... this is also the scheme of the queen mother and the prime minister?" In Xia Houqing's eyes, there seemed to be a crisis about to break through the ice in the cold.

"I don't know." King Chuyang sighed, and said, "I just hope that this queen...she is really as scheming as she appears on the surface, otherwise...we will suffer a lot in the future."

Xia Houqing pondered for a while before saying: "Uncle Huang, why do you want her to study in the imperial study with me? Doesn't that make her get closer to me and discover something?"

King Chuyang smiled gently, patted Xia Houqing on the shoulder and said, "Knowing yourself and the enemy is the only way to win every battle. If she approaches you, don't you also approach her, so it's convenient for observation?"

Xia Houqing thought for a while, then smiled and said: "The emperor is still thoughtful." He paused for a while, and his handsome face was slightly annoyed and unwilling: "But... why do I look at the queen as if she is more unwilling than me?" ... She actually, actually let her accept the concubine three days later, isn't that...too generous?"
