His Royal Highness, he is plotting against me

Chapter 179 Meeting Ceremony

It didn't matter to the Ming family, he was already of a higher rank than her husband-in-law, so she should make a salute.

There were also two little girls about two or three years old leaning on her side, following her mother and kneeling, watching her quietly with their big bright eyes from time to time.

Chen Fulin smiled.

"Excuse me, Mrs. Li. These are twins, right? The two girls don't look alike."

When she said this, Concubine Shu and Ming's faces froze at the same time.

Ming: "...Yes, they are twins."

Chen Fulin smiled: "You are so cute! The first time we met, I didn't have time to prepare anything. These days, I happened to like a little gadget, and I was carrying it with me, so I gave it to the two little girls."

She beckoned, Biluo smiled, took out the small box that had been prepared, and handed it to Mingshi.

Ming Shi was taken aback: ... Is this unprepared?
She glanced at her aunt, who didn't say much except for her unnatural expression, so she took it over.

"My wife thanked Chen Liangdi for the two maids."

Chen Fulin showed a bright smile: "Mrs. Li, you are welcome."

With that, she stood up.

"Since that's the case, I won't bother Concubine Shu, you and your family are reminiscing about the past, so I'm leaving."

Seeing her standing up and preparing to leave, Concubine Shu's expression improved a bit.

"Oh, by the way, empress, how is Princess Minghe doing recently? Xi'er misses Princess Minghe very much!"

The corners of Concubine Shu's mouth twitched: "Ming He has been learning embroidery from his mother recently, and he is a little busy. The little princess is lively and cute, and Ming He also likes the little princess very much. When I have free time, Minghe comes to play with the little princess. "

But what he thought in his heart was that every kind of mother has a kind of daughter, and that dead girl Qin Xi was carved out of the same mold as her mother!
Her behavior is vulgar, her eyes have no dignity, and she doesn't have the gentleness and dignity of a royal princess!
She is crazy to let Minghe play with such a person!
So free?
It is impossible to be free in this life!

However, Chen Fulin was quite satisfied with Concubine Shu's answer, and he really left with a wave of his sleeves.

After Chen Fulin left, Concubine Shu's straight back suddenly collapsed.

God knows that she has to pull herself together in the face of this pain!
Ming looked at her aunt in puzzlement, that Chen Liangdi looked very amiable, but why did she look like an enemy?

But this is the imperial palace, my aunt has her own reasons for doing things, she doesn't understand, she just needs to listen.

"Auntie, this?"

Ming raised the small box in his hand.

Since the aunt and this Chen Liangdi were at odds, she naturally did not dare to accept this gift.

Concubine Shu said "what can she give", and asked the maid to take the small box.

She opened the box, but she froze on the spot.

Concubine Shu was short of breath, and her face was bluish and white.

"boom"!
She slammed the table hard.

"No reason!"

"It just doesn't make sense!"

"You came here to humiliate me, Chen Fulin! You just wait for me!"

Concubine Shu slammed the box in her hand to the ground, and the two pairs of silver bracelets rolled several times on the ground.

When Ming saw clearly what was on the ground, he also froze suddenly.

If she read it correctly, isn't this the silver bracelet that their house uses as a gift for the children born out of concubines?
Why did Chen Liangdi use this as a gift for her own children?

Ming: ...

Ming's complexion is also a little bad.

She is a bit soft-tempered, but she is not a spineless person.

This Chen Liangdi from the East Palace was obviously fighting with her aunt, the two of them were unlucky and became someone else's raft.

For a while, Ming's thoughts of chatting with Li Concubine Empress about family matters faded a lot.

Similarly, Empress Li was not in a good mood either.

Originally, they wanted to keep the mother and three for lunch, but in the end they just chatted casually for a while, and Ming left with the two children.

Naturally, the meeting gift given by Chen Fulin was unnecessary, so Empress Li put it away and gave the two children another gift.

Coming out of Concubine Li Palace, Chen Fulin was in a very good mood.

Back in the East Palace, I saw Qin Xi who had just finished school squatting in the yard, chirping with Xiao Jinzi and Xiao Yinzi.

Perhaps it was telepathy, as soon as Chen Fulin and Bi Luo stepped into the door, Qin Xi turned his head.

"Mother~"

She came running over, her little face still a little sweaty.

Chen Fulin took out a handkerchief and wiped it for her:

"What are you doing, sweat all over your forehead."

Qin Xi pulled her over.

"Mother, look!"

Chen Fulin followed, Xiao Jinzi and Xiao Yinzi got up and saluted: "Master".

"Well, what is this?"

Chen Fulin looked at the loosened soil, and a few green leaves emerged from it. Forgive her for her incompetence, she didn't know what it was.

Xiao Jinzi said: "It's a kind of fruit from the Western Regions. It is said that if you plant a small one, it will grow a lot. Your Highness sent some over, and the little Princess wants to try it."

Chen Fulin: "...Oh?"

Fruits from the Western Regions?

"What kind of fruit can be directly planted in the ground?"

Shouldn't the peel be removed and the seeds left for replanting?

Xiao Jinzi paused: "This kind of fruit...is a bit special."

Saying that, Xiao Yinzi handed over a ball of red stuff.

"Master, please take a look."

"It's this fruit. The outer skin is purple-red, and the flesh inside is edible. It tastes sweet and moist. It comes from the root of a vine. When this fruit is placed in a warm and humid place, tender shoots will emerge, and then the tender shoots will be flattened. Planted in the soil, it will bear fruit within two months, and the yield is extremely high."

Chen Fulin: "...so easy?"

She glanced at the unknown young leaves in the soil: "Is this the way to bear fruit?"

Ordinary fruit trees grow up, bloom and bear fruit, as fast as two or three years, as long as four or five years, but it does not bear fruit in two months.

Qin Xi added from the side: "Not only that! My father said that this vine can be eaten as a vegetable when it grows up!"

She licked the corner of her mouth, obviously looking forward to it.

Chen Fulin was speechless: "That is indeed a good thing."

"How come I don't know such a good thing, how much is there? Cut one and try it."

Hearing this, Qin Xi turned his head to look at Xiao Yinzi, to be precise, it was the "fruit" he was holding in his hand.

Little Yinzi: "...That's it, this one."

"Ok?"

"Just one?"

Little Yinzi silently lowered his head: "Yes, it's the last one."

Qin Xi "cough coughed" twice: "Well, mother... one is pretty good too, it's not good to eat too much of it, we just have to taste it."

In fact, this thing is not considered to be sent by the father, but what she asked for in a shameless manner.

Merchants who went to the Western Regions brought this back from there, saying that the people there lived on it, and that it could solve the food problem of the people after planting it.

That's why I presented this object to my father, and it happened that she and my brother met him.

She wouldn't tell her mother that when she and her brother got this thing a few days ago, they ate it up and down, and ended up making a mess of it.

　That's right, sweet potatoes are here.
