After reading the whole family's minds, the eldest daughter awakened

Xiaokui couldn't help but swallow her saliva. The princess was too bold to say what she said. If the news reached His Majesty's ears, even if he didn't trouble her openly, he would find a way to trick her in private.

Li Youwei is not as complicated as Xiaokui thought. Chu Wangchen and Gongsun Qiao are both people who have the overall situation in mind. Even if they stumble each other, it is not painful, more like a joke.

Gongsun Qiao cleared her throat and started talking nonsense to Li Youwei.

"You Wei, I'm about to enter the palace. I heard that among the concubines in his harem, the virtuous concubine Nalanjiao is the most arrogant. I guess my life will not be too easy."

Gongsun Qiao sighed after finishing speaking. It seemed that she was really troubled by this matter.

"Anping, Nalanjiao's mischief is in the open, and we should be more careful with those who do mischief behind the scenes.

You must not have people who are harmful to others, and you must be on guard against others. There are no permanent enemies and no permanent friends, only interests are eternal.

The fights in the harem are no less than those in the court, so you must be careful. "Li Youwei was afraid that Gongsun Qiao would suffer a loss, so he reminded her a few more times.

"Youwei, you are right. In fact, Nalanjiao is easy to deal with. I think the favored concubine will be a ruthless character.

But she didn't attend the New Year's Eve banquet. She wouldn't have anything to do with Concubine Xian's miscarriage. "

Just after Concubine Xian had a miscarriage, Concubine Xian did not attend such an important banquet with Emperor Nanchen. Not only Gongsun Qiao thought so, many people had such speculations.

Li Youwei personally led the investigation into the miscarriage case of Concubine Xian, and she has the most say.

"It's related, but based on her ability, she won't fall out of favor so easily."

Jiang Qi was able to become Prince Rui's female adviser, and then defected to Huangfu Chenyang at the last moment. There is no doubt about her ability.

Gongsun Qiao didn't have much dealings with Jiang Qi. She always thought that Jiang Qi was just a more scheming and sophisticated woman.

"You Wei, if this matter is really related to Jiang Qi, it is a serious crime of murdering the emperor's heir. Will Emperor Nanchen forgive her easily?"

"It depends on what chips she can use to protect herself."

The dancers Jiang Qi trained not only used their dance moves to please the dignitaries, but were also scattered in various mansions as spies.

The original Xiu'er was trained by Jiang Qi. Fortunately, Li Dengyuan had been keeping an eye on her and Li Youwei's reminder prevented her from being deceived by Xiu'er.

Gongsun Qiao nodded, "This woman is really powerful, I wonder what back-ups she has left."

Li Youwei shook his head, "I don't know either."

"It doesn't matter if I don't know. When I enter the palace, I will definitely stay away from these two women, Concubine De and Concubine Xian. Concubine De and Concubine Shu are pretty good, right? Can I be friends with them?"

"Both of them are excellent, so of course it's okay."

Although Li Youwei didn't spend much time with the two of them, he could tell that they were pure in nature and would not lose themselves easily even in the big dyeing vat in the harem.

Gongsun Qiao pulled Li Youwei's sleeve and said, "Please come to the palace to see me when you have time. I'm afraid of being bored the most."

"Okay, if I have a chance, I will visit you."

Although Li Youwei is a woman, she is still a minister, and there are not many opportunities to enter the harem.

Gongsun Qiao pulled Li Youwei and talked a lot. Finally, when it was time to eat, Li Youwei stayed to eat together.

Chu Wangchen, who had been unable to get out of bed, forced himself to sit at the table. Li Youwei knew that he had no strength, so he helped him pick up a lot of vegetables.

Although Chu Wangchen had no appetite, he ate everything.

After dinner, Li Youwei took Bi Tao and left.

Two days later, Xiu Mu ended, and the marriage between Nan Chen and Dong Zhou was officially put on the agenda. Chu Wangchen and Gongsun Qiao also recovered from their illnesses. Huangfu Chenyang held a reception banquet for them in the palace, accompanied by other ministers.

At the banquet, Huangfu Chenyang was the first to raise his glass, "Thank you for your hard work, Emperor Xi Wei, coming from afar. I wish our friendship between Nanchen and Dongzhou will last forever. Let's drink this toast."

"Okay, I hope our two countries can coexist peacefully, let's do it."

Others also raised their glasses, and the atmosphere in the banquet hall was very harmonious.

Queen Mother Nalan was infected with cold recently. She did not attend this time, but Huangfu Chenyang's concubines were all present.

The imperial concubine, who was absent from the New Year's Eve banquet, was sitting dignifiedly on Huangfu Chenyang's left hand side, looking at Huangfu Chenyang from time to time.

Judging from the relationship between the two, the imperial concubine has not fallen out of favor at all. She must be really sick if she did not attend the New Year's Eve banquet.

The virtuous concubine Nalanjiao sat on the right hand side of Huangfu Chenyang. Her body was almost full. Due to the tonic she had taken in the past few days, her little face was a little rounder and she had a different charm.

Nalanjiao rushed to pour wine for Huangfu Chenyang Bucai, as if confronting Jiang Qi.

Jiang Qi shook her head helplessly, "Sister Jiaojiao, you are not well yet. It is up to me to take care of His Majesty."

Nalanjiao pulled her lips and smiled, "What are you talking about, Sister Guifei? You are recovering from your illness and your body is still weak. My young body recovers quickly, so naturally it is my sister who should do it."

Nalanjiao's words were somewhat mocking Jiang Qi's age.

Jiang Qi's hand stiffened for a moment, but soon returned to normal, "Sister Jiaojiao, I think there is a misunderstanding between us. I will go to your palace to explain the matter clearly some other day."

"Sister Qi, you should take good care of her. I don't dare to trouble my sister."

The two of them were going back and forth, and their words were full of thorns. Even though they were both laughing, Concubine De and Concubine Shu who were sitting beside them could feel the tense atmosphere.

Huangfu Chenyang naturally felt it too. He never participated in the fights between the concubines in the harem, as long as it was not too excessive.

But what he likes to see is fighting in the nest, not making people laugh in front of Emperor Dongzhou.

"The two beloved concubines are tired, please come and take them back to rest."

Huangfu Chenyang gave the order without giving the two of them a chance to refute.

Nalanjiao learned a lot from this, and followed Long Wei out of the banquet hall very obediently.

Jiang Qi didn't look good, but she still saluted appropriately and left.

Outside the banquet hall, Nalanjiao finally had nothing to worry about and immediately laughed, "Jiang Qi, you are really good at letting your personal maid take the blame for you.

But remember, God is watching what you do, and if you harm innocent lives, you will be punished sooner or later. "

Mentioning the child who died before seeing the beauty of this world, Nalanjiao wanted to kill Jiang Qi with her own hands.

Jiang Qi subconsciously distanced herself from Nalanjiao. This woman was so crazy that she seemed to be desperate for her life. She didn't want to be hurt by her.

"Sister Jiaojiao, you really misunderstood me. I really didn't harm your child. Everything was decided by that bitch.

Even if you don't believe me, you should believe in His Majesty. That's Long Si. If it was really me who did it, how could I still be standing here? "

Although Jiang Qi was explaining, she had an inexplicably showy tone.

Nalan clenched her teeth coquettishly, but refrained from taking action. Her previous impulsiveness, willfulness and stupidity had already cost her a child, and she had to learn to tolerate it.
