Brocade clothing

Chapter 107
Chu Qing's mind went blank, she wondered if she had just experienced auditory hallucinations, otherwise, why did she feel that the emperor's voice was so similar to Li Tianxiao's?Li Tianxiao... Li...

If she remembered correctly, the country's surname was Li.

Chu Qing's face turned pale, the finger bones holding the scabbard turned white, her breathing became heavy, and she gritted her teeth, barely restraining her urge to look up the hall.She shook her head in her heart, thinking, impossible, how could Brother Li be the emperor?Can the emperor leave the palace at will, for a few months?Maybe it's just a coincidence, the voice of the emperor coincides with the voice of Brother Li's imagination...

Chu Qingqiang suppressed the uneasiness in her heart, took a deep breath, and managed to calm down.

The singing and dancing of the birthday banquet started, but Chu Qing didn't dare to look around, her mind was empty, she just wanted to take a look at the palace, to see if the emperor was that person...

As soon as the next song and dance sounded, the surrounding officials gasped, and Chu Qing heard a whisper from close to him: "Isn't this the Liu family's prostitute? What's wrong with her?"

"What's the matter? The Liu family's prostitute is the empress dowager's niece. There is nothing wrong with dancing for the empress dowager to celebrate her birthday. More importantly, it can attract the emperor's attention. Look, the face of the empress dowager Mei is dark." ..."

"You still dare to peek at Concubine Mei, do you want to die?"

"What are you afraid of? Now everyone's attention is on Liu Di's daughter, and they don't notice us."

"It's true, but now there's a good show to watch. Concubine Mei is not someone to be messed with. It's been a long time since she dominated the harem all these years, right?"

"..."

Everyone's voices came from time to time, Chu Qing could only catch a glimpse of a red light dancing in the center of the banquet, and when the dance was over, he heard a delicate voice: "Chen'er wishes my aunt a long life!"

Chu Qing didn't dare to turn her head to look around, but from the corner of her eye, she could see a red shadow charmingly blessing her body.

Empress Dowager Liu laughed: "Okay, okay, Chen'er has a heart, Ai's family is very happy, come, come to Ai's family, let Ai's family have a good look."

Ministers: Look?What are you looking at?They remembered that Liu Di's daughter would run to the Compassionate Ning Palace from time to time, right?Is this the empress dowager to see, or is it for the emperor to see?
After listening to Empress Dowager Liu's words, Liu Di's daughter flew to Empress Dowager Liu's side like a delicate flower, hugged her arm, and peeked at the emperor with bright eyes. The young and handsome side face blushed, and lowered her head shyly: "Auntie, Chen'er has prepared a birthday gift for you, and Chen'er will show it to Auntie later."

"The Ai family wants to see it now, Chen'er went to get it, and just let the emperor see it too." Empress Dowager Liu patted the back of Liu Chenyue's hand, and waited for Liu Chenyue to turn around like a butterfly and really go to get it. At the birthday ceremony, the Empress Dowager Liu looked at the emperor and Jun Hao, who looked like a goblin beside the emperor: "It's still Chen'er who has a heart, thinking about the old woman of Ai's family, she always remembers to come to the Palace of Compassion to pay her respects to Ai's family, unlike some These people have been in the palace for so long, and the Ai family wants to see them and invite them. The emperor, although the affairs of the court need to be taken care of, the affairs of the harem must also be taken care of."

Li Tianxiao lowered his eyes: "I know what my mother taught me." Li Tianxiao only agreed verbally, but it's another matter to do practical things.

Empress Dowager Liu's complexion is not good-looking, the emperor is getting more and more outrageous, since Concubine Mei entered the palace a few years ago, there is not even a concubine in the harem, she feels more and more difficult to control the emperor, this time taking advantage of this For the next birthday banquet, she insisted on being a good thing for the emperor and Chen'er.Only when someone from her Liu family becomes the queen, can she truly rest assured.

Jun Hao sat beside Li Tianxiao, as if deliberately annoying the Queen Mother, stretched out his hand, his nails were blood red from cardamom, peeled off a grape, and fed it to Li Tianxiao himself: "Your Majesty, ah, come and eat a grape."

Li Tianxiao had a stern face, and he actually ate it.

Empress Dowager Liu was so angry that her heart was full of fire, but she couldn't really tear her face off with the emperor on the spot: "Emperor, enough is enough. This is still the Compassionate Palace of Aijia."

"What the mother taught me, Mei'er, eat it yourself, I don't like sweets." Li Tianxiao said lightly.

Junhao accepted it as soon as he saw it, but from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Empress Dowager Liu's face, which was almost black and blue with anger, and the corners of her mouth raised, wanting to put eyeliner next to the emperor?You have to get past him first!

Chu Qing's gaze was fixed on the front all the time, but the voice from the hall still came faintly, everyone was watching, but some secretly went to the hall to peek.Listening to that voice, Chu Qing felt as if she was being scratched by a kitten. The more she listened to the emperor's voice, the more she looked like Li Tianxiao, but she had hope in her heart.how can that be possible?How could Brother Li be the emperor?

If he was the emperor, wouldn't he already know what Uncle Liu Guo did?

But if he is, but he hides it from her, does it mean that he doesn't want to care about it at all?

That's right, Uncle Liu Guo is his own uncle, how could he help her, an outsider, and instead punish his own uncle?

Chu Qing's mind was in a mess. She didn't want Li Tianxiao to be the emperor, otherwise, otherwise... who else would she go to to help her master?In this huge capital city, who else is more powerful than Uncle Liu Guo?
At this time, Liu Chenyue had already brought over the birthday gift, which was a hundred-year-old picture embroidered by herself. When she unfolded it, the Empress Dowager Liu was very happy and rewarded a lot of things. Then, when the voice changed, she directly spoke to Liu Chen Yue said: "Chen'er, show it to your emperor's cousin, the Ai family sees that this embroidery is really good."

Liu Chenyue blushed, hummed softly, and moved towards the emperor.

Jun Hao twirled a grape and swallowed it, showing the concubine's arrogance to the fullest. Hearing this, he laughed directly.

The entire hall was extremely quiet, so Jun Hao's voice raised everyone's hearts: Is there a good show coming?Is Junhao about to start fighting for favor?
Empress Dowager Liu obviously also heard this, and looked at Junhao coldly: "Why, Concubine Mei has a problem with Aijia's words?"

Jun Hao took the handkerchief handed over by the palace maid, and wiped his hands: "The queen mother has wronged me, and I am happy for sister Chen. Sister Chen is so beautiful, and her dancing posture is better than that. All the dancers in this palace dance well. This embroidery is also good. I guess when I arrive at my husband's house in the future, I don't need to find the embroiderer for my husband's clothes. I can let my sister Chen do it for me. I don't know if my sister Chen Whose wife will be attracted by her height, and she can go to propose marriage another day, and the female college will not stay." Jun Hao's words seemed to be praising Liu Chenyue, but they were all sarcasm. Which of the ladies present was not Hearing it was so real, I couldn't help laughing silently under the veil.

Concubine Mei said a few words. The first sentence was to satirize Liu Chenyue, a lady of great family, but she showed her face and snatched the job of the dancer. In the same position as a dancer, she is willing to degenerate; the second sentence directly satirizes that she can't wait to get married, and marry whoever wants to marry.When she said this, those who heard the meaning would no longer feel uncomfortable going forward.

But she didn't know whether Liu Chenyue was really stupid or fake, she was stunned and shyly brought the hundred-shou picture to the emperor with a smile: "Cousin, do you think Chen'er embroidered well? Sister Mei even praised Chen'er It's gone." This innocent sentence made everyone unable to tell whether it was really stupid or fake.

But she couldn't help taking a sneak peek at the hall, Chu Qing turned her head while everyone was focusing on the hall, and took a quick look at the hall, but it was this glance that made Chu Qing's face completely pale.

If she had hoped before, but when she saw that familiar handsome face passing by in front of her eyes, Chu Qing withdrew her gaze and stared at the front in a daze, clenched her hands tightly, her mind was empty: Brother Li... ...is it really the emperor?
He lied to her... so miserable.

Then he laughed bitterly again, why did she forget, there is no need for Brother Li to tell her, after all, they have been in a cooperative relationship from the beginning, she helped him find all the corpses, and he helped her master avenge her.But now that all the corpses have been found, what about her master's revenge?

He kept it a secret at the time that her master died because of a wrong look, but he didn't want her to know, right?

Chu Qing stood there with a cold face, which was even more indifferent against the armor on her body.

Li Tianxiao was sitting on top of the main hall. He never thought that Chu Qing was in the hall at the moment, but when Chu Qing looked over, he noticed it, and when he looked in Chu Qing's direction, he didn't see anything. Then she looked away, and said to Liu Chenyue, "Cousin Chen's embroidery is really good. Since my mother loves it very much, let's put it away. I also wish my mother a blessing like the East China Sea, and a longer life than Nanshan." When Li Tianxiao said this, The voice was very soft, Liu Chenyue's delicate face turned pale, but she didn't show it, she blessed herself, and retreated to Empress Dowager Liu's side, and sat down on the low stool prepared for her .

Empress Dowager Liu did not expect that Li Tianxiao would not show any face to her niece at her birthday banquet. She was thinking about whether to directly issue the imperial decree, but now that the emperor is getting older and his wings are gradually hardening, the strength of her Liu family It is not as good as before, and it seems that there is no benefit in going against the emperor.But she urgently needs an eyeliner to be placed by the emperor's side. In the past few years, because of Concubine Mei, the emperor has favored her so much that she never set foot in the palaces of other concubines in the harem, which made it impossible for her to do anything.

Empress Dowager Liu's eyes turned cold. If not, she would have to... kill her.

Jun Hao saw that even though Liu Chenyue was sitting next to Empress Dowager Liu, he still couldn't help looking at them, and couldn't help muttering in a low voice: "A girl's family really has no shame, so blatantly staring at her. Others don't know what's on her mind?" Or was she planning to let everyone know and had to marry the emperor?

Li Tianxiao didn't look sideways, and tasted the fine wine in the golden bottle, but his thoughts had already drifted away. Thinking of the previous disagreement with Chu Qing, he didn't know how she is now, is she still angry with him?
