Emperor concubine and phoenix

Chapter 387 It's up to the owner to beat the dog

The concubines and queens in the harem don't know what happened in the imperial study.

The Queen's complexion is not so good when she wakes up in the morning... No, it should be said that she has been in a bad mood for three consecutive days.

On the third day, such a bad mood reached a boiling point.

The reason is that the prince woke up for three days, but he didn't step into Fengyi Palace, didn't greet her, and didn't even report her safety.

Is there any presence of her, the queen mother, in his eyes?

So after the anger rose, the queen said coldly: "What is the prince doing in Changding Hall today?"

"It seems to be accompanying Nanxiaojunzhu." The palace maid lowered her eyebrows, and replied tremblingly, "The prince and the little princess have not stepped out of the Changding Palace for three days. I heard from the palace servants in the Changding Palace that the little princess just woke up. , the mental state is not very good, His Royal Highness is also a little weak..."

"Weakness?" The queen gritted her teeth and sneered, her delicately made-up face was covered with frost, "It's all an excuse!"

The palace maid lowered her head, not daring to answer.

The queen's eyes were gloomy, she stood up coldly and walked out: "Show me, follow me to the Changding Hall."

The maids of honor followed behind.

In the Changding Hall, Nansi was sitting on the brocade couch, holding a cup of fragrant tea, indifferently and casually listening to the soft pleading of the weak woman in front of her: "I have a sincere heart for His Royal Highness, and I fell in love with him early on. I also hope that the little princess can fulfill my wish."

To fulfill her wish?
Does this have anything to do with her?
Tell whoever you like, why do you come to her?

She is not a prince.

Nan Si couldn't help but sighed: "Don't hide from Miss Cheng, this matter really has nothing to do with me. The person you want to be the prince, whether it's the main concubine or side concubine, or just a concubine, needs to get With the consent of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince himself, it is meaningless for you to beg me, and I will not intervene in the Prince's inner house without authorization..."

"But if there is no consent of the little princess, even if His Royal Highness has the heart, he will always be scruples about the two years of friendship with the little princess." Cheng Xiangyu narrowed his eyes, and the words were sincere, "This is not right, it just shows that His Royal Highness values ​​love and righteousness , is he a good man worth entrusting for life? The owner of the little princess is kind-hearted, and Xiang Yu is not a narrow-minded person. I believe that the little princess and I should be able to get along peacefully. I can guarantee that I will never compete with the little princess in the future..."

"Miss Cheng." Nan Si said lightly, "My words have been made very clear. I have nothing to do with who you want to be. You should go to the rightful owner—"

"Even if His Highness the Crown Prince loves the little princess, shouldn't the little princess be so refusing to leave a way out for others?" The maid beside Cheng Xiangyu said in a low voice, and couldn't help arguing for her young lady, "My girl has repeatedly backed down, even Zheng The position of concubine is willing to give up. Why can't the little princess be a little tolerant? His Royal Highness has a noble status, and it is impossible to marry only one wife in the future. The Sangong and Six Courtyards are indispensable. Does the little princess still expect to occupy the prince for the rest of his life? Can't do it alone?"

Nan Si closed her eyes, sipped her tea silently, and didn't respond to the maid's words.

On the contrary, Tao Zhi beside Nan Si had a cold expression, stepped forward, and slapped her across the face: "Presumptuous! Do you have a voice in front of the princess?"

The crisp applause fell, and the hall was instantly dead silent.

The servant girl was stunned by the beating, covering her face in disbelief.

And Cheng Xiangyu's expression became a little uneasy for a moment, and he bit his lip: "Although His Royal Highness loves the little princess, Xiangyu is also a noble daughter of a serious family. As the saying goes, beating a dog depends on the owner..."

"So Miss Cheng indulged the dog beside her to provoke the little princess?" Tao Zhi said with a blank expression, "My princess has a good temper and doesn't bother to argue with you, but the servant is ordered by the prince to protect the little princess. Anyone who dares to be rude and provocative in front of the little princess must be punished, otherwise the servants of His Royal Highness will not be able to explain."

After saying these words, she turned around and bowed slightly to Nan Si, "Your maidservant was presumptuous just now, please forgive me, little Princess."

Nan Si's tone was light: "It's okay, let's send Miss Cheng out."

Cheng Xiangyu's face changed slightly: "Why can't the princess give me a chance?"

"Miss Cheng." Nan Si was a little impatient, and her tone was three points indifferent, "I have made it very clear that your marriage to the prince is a matter between you and the prince, and has nothing to do with me. The person you should find is The prince is not me, since you have said that you are a noble daughter of a family, then whoever is responsible should go to whomever, you should understand this truth—"

"The empress is here—"

A high-pitched voice sounded from outside, and the palace servants inside and outside the palace instantly knelt down on the ground.

Cheng Xiangyu and the maid around him also turned around to welcome them, and at the moment the Empress stepped into the palace gate, they knelt down on their knees, "Welcome to the Empress."

Nan Si was still sitting quietly on the brocade couch, looking a little out of place in the scene before her.

But she has always been like this, leisurely, indifferent, careless, with a bit of laziness in her delicate and picturesque eyebrows-well, this laziness is actually a habit formed when she was a prime minister in Tianchao, come back here, Habits are brought along with them.

Everyone in the hall was kneeling, only Nan Si sat there as if nothing had happened, and the Queen's eyes naturally fell on her.

Even though in the past two years, relying on the emperor's favor, she never knelt down to anyone again, she could still put on a show and stand without kneeling, but today she doesn't even want to stand up?

The queen walked into the hall and stood still, looking at Nan Si coldly: "Where is the prince?"

Tao Zhi replied: "Go back to the empress, the prince was summoned to the imperial study by the emperor."

Imperial study?
The queen thought that today the father and son of the Cheng family went to the palace to meet the saint for the marriage between the daughter of the Cheng family and the crown prince, so she couldn't help but look at Nan Si with serious eyes.

He stretched out his hand to help Cheng Xiangyu, and after the queen comforted her softly, she walked to the couch opposite Nan Si and sat down. There was only a small table between them, and said in a calm tone, "Si'er, about the Crown Prince and Miss Cheng. What do you think of the marriage?"

Si'er.

Oh, since Ye Jun Mausoleum was made the crown prince, the queen's address to Nan Si has also changed from "Nan Si" to "Si'er".

However, although the address was a bit intimate, the tone was not at all intimate.

Nan Si took a sip of tea and said indifferently, "The marriage between the crown prince and Miss Cheng has nothing to do with me."

"How can it be irrelevant?" The queen frowned slightly, with a dignified and majestic look on her face. It seemed that the elders were teaching the younger generation how to do things, "You are the girl that His Royal Highness likes, and you will become the prince's person sooner or later. Xiangyu is about the same age as you, I believe you can become good sisters."
