After crossing, I became the vicious concubine of the tyrant

Chapter 40

The three of them came to the queen mother's bedroom in this way, and the emperor had already arrived at the queen mother. When he saw Gu Qingcheng who had come late, he couldn't help but feel a little unhappy.

"The noble concubine really made her final appearance."

The queen mother didn't like Gu Qingcheng very much, so she looked at Gu Qingcheng coldly.

Taoist Gu Qingcheng didn't care too much. Anyway, the old witch, the queen mother, had been upset for a long time, and she didn't want to please the queen mother. After curing Nangong Mo's leg injury, she would leave the palace. Feel free to think whatever you want.

"Empress Dowager, don't blame Elder Sister. Presumably, Elder Concubine is going to prepare a present for the Empress Dowager, so she came here in a hurry. The picture of a hundred years of life that I prepared for the Empress Dowager was embroidered by myself stitch by stitch. It took a lot of time, and even the concubine was almost late."

As Concubine Lian spoke, she delivered the gift she had carefully prepared to the Empress Dowager. Looking at the meticulous embroidery on the red cloth, the Empress Dowager secretly liked the 100 different birthday characters in her heart.

Concubine Lian's care for the child was really noticed by the empress dowager Liangku, and she couldn't help being moved.

"Sister Concubine, where is your gift? Since Sister Concubine is the Taifu Zhinv, she must be proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, so the gift prepared for the Empress Dowager is naturally unconventional, and the concubine is looking forward to it."

While Concubine Lian said this intentionally, Chao Gu Qingcheng gave her a somewhat provocative look.

Gu Qingcheng didn't bother to talk to Concubine Lian at all.

To take care of the Queen Mother, it's enough when it comes to meaning, he doesn't have any intention to compare his hard work with Concubine Lian here.

"Caiyun take out the gift prepared by Ben Gong."

Listening to Gu Qingcheng's instructions, Cai Yun couldn't help showing a somewhat astonished expression on his face.

"Ma'am, what gift are you talking about? Didn't you ask Hua Yao to get it?"

Hua Yao on the side also looked at Gu Qingcheng in surprise.

"No, the empress said that you helped the concubine Lian to prepare the empress dowager's birthday gift before, so you must be very experienced, so I entrusted you to do all the things this time. I have never been to the House of Internal Affairs at all. When did you take it?"

Seeing Cai Yun and Hua Yao's dumbfounded expressions, Gu Qingcheng couldn't help being slightly surprised.

No way, do you want to lose the chain at such a critical moment?
"The expression on the face of the imperial concubine is a bit awkward. Could it be that she forgot to bring the gift from the empress dowager?"

Looking at the expression on Gu Qingcheng's face, Concubine Lian knew that Gu Qingcheng would definitely not be able to produce the phoenix pearl hairpin she had prepared before, and she couldn't help but feel a burst of pride in her heart.

Nangong Mo, who was sitting next to the queen mother, also frowned tightly.

Does this woman have the consciousness of being a noble concubine?After all, he was also the head of the harem, and it was the first time that he would become a queen to celebrate the queen mother's birthday. After doing such a thing, Nangong Mo couldn't help feeling a little irritable.

The expression on the Queen Mother's face was also very ugly, and she stared at Gu Qingcheng coldly.

"Don't kneel down yet!" The nanny next to the queen mother saw that the queen mother was unhappy, and hurriedly asked Gu Qingcheng to kneel down to admit her mistake to the queen mother.

"Gu Qingcheng, do you still have the Empress Dowager Aijia in your eyes?" It was the first time in her life that the Empress Dowager was ignored in such a mood. He felt that Gu Qingcheng didn't care about him at all.

"Back to the Empress Dowager, these are all just a misunderstanding. The concubine carefully prepared the acceptance for the empress dowager, but the concubine may have forgotten to bring it here in the palace. After all, the concubine forgot to eat and sleep to make it for the empress dowager. It would be a bit sad. Please wait a moment, the empress dowager." After a while, the concubine will go back to the palace to get it back."

Gu Qingcheng looked at the queen mother with a bad expression on his face, and Nangong Mo, who was sitting next to him, obviously had no intention of speaking for him, and couldn't help but feel a little anxious, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and explain.

Even if you think with your toes, you can still think of Concubine Lian. With her confident look today, it must be Concubine Lian who has robbed her gift.

But Gu Qingcheng has no other choice now, he can only think about going back to the Mingyue Palace, first go to the warehouse to pick something to deal with the queen mother.

"Gu Qingcheng, I don't think you want to go back to the palace to get it, but you are not prepared at all." The queen mother looked at the guilty conscience that flashed in Gu Qingcheng's eyes, and said coldly.

"What is your fault?"

Seeing that the queen mother was about to punish Gu Qingcheng, at this moment, a clear voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"The empress dowager calm down! Chang'an is late, please don't blame the empress dowager."

Gu Qingcheng turned his head to look at the door, and the person standing there was Yan Chang'an.

Yan Chang'an was still wearing a moon-white robe, and smiled lightly at Gu Qingcheng, then bowed to the emperor and the queen mother.

"I wish the empress dowager a healthy body and a long life."

"Today's Empress Dowager's birthday, Chang'an didn't have anything special to offer, so I had to give the Empress Dowager a portrait. This painting was painted by Chang'an himself, and every stroke was full of Chang'an's full respect for the Empress Dowager. Also, please don’t be disgusted, my lady.”

The queen mother just snorted coldly, and didn't pay attention to Yan Chang'an's painting.

"In addition, on the way here, Chang'an helped the imperial concubine get the gift carefully prepared by the imperial concubine for the empress dowager, and now I will also give it to the empress dowager."

While talking about Yan Chang'an, he handed the delicate box in his hand to Gu Qingcheng. Gu Qingcheng opened it and saw that it was indeed the phoenix pearl hairpin that he asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to make.

Great, I was saved, thanks to Yan Chang'an today, otherwise I might not be able to eat and walk around.

This Yan Chang'an really rescues emergencies like putting out a fire, the young man is not bad, he seems to be a close friend.

Gu Qingcheng secretly thought this way in his heart, but he didn't expect that all these words were heard by Nangong Mo, and the expression on Nangong Mo's face became a little ugly again.

"Since your gift has been delivered, you can bring it here and let the Ai family take a look." The Queen Mother looked at Gu Qingcheng with a relieved expression on her face, gave Gu Qingcheng a cold look, and then let Gu Qingcheng walk up come.

Gu Qingcheng held the box containing Phoenix's business trip, and respectfully placed the things in front of the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager took a closer look, and there was a hint of surprise in her eyes.

The phoenix hairpin was made dazzlingly, and a South China Sea night pearl in the eyes was even more shining, making the whole phoenix look like it was about to come alive.

"You really put your heart into it. Forget it, since today's matter is just a misunderstanding, let's forget it." The Queen Mother was a little happy, so she didn't bother to continue to pursue Gu Qingcheng.
