cold palace escape concubine

Chapter 74 Where Do You Want to Live?
Seeing the queen's complexion was not good, the noisy concubines all shut up one after another.

At this moment, the empress swept across the crowd sternly, and after a long silence, she narrowed her eyes slightly and said, "When will the emperor's decision be up to you to dictate?"

Everyone saw that the empress had all her heart on the emperor, and didn't take this matter to heart at all. The concubines could only suppress their displeasure, and bowed their heads in silence.

"Most of you are old people in the Prince's House. It's not like you don't know the emperor's thoughts and temper. I don't want someone's jealous voice to reach the emperor's ears and make him unhappy." The queen's voice softened slightly.

"Be cautious in your words and deeds, and do your duty as a concubine is what you should do." The queen added, "You all step back."

"Yes, the concubine is resigning." Since they couldn't please the queen, and they didn't want to be disliked by the emperor, they could only leave as they said.

After walking out of Yingfeng Palace, Concubine Qi stopped Concubine Huan's way.

"Sister Concubine Huan has the intention to make things difficult for me, why not think about what will happen if she is given favor in the days to come."

Seeing Qipin's displeasure, Concubine Huan just held an innocent smile and said, "What did Sister Qipin say, my sister was just afraid that my sister would be accused of being a dick, so I stopped her. If I want my sister to misunderstand, then My sister can't feel at ease."

Seeing Concubine Huan pretending to be innocent, Qi Pin was so angry that her teeth itch, but she didn't know how to reprimand her for a while.

Concubine Qi came over, looked at one smiling and one full of annoyance, and spoke slowly.

"What are the two younger sisters talking about?" Concubine Qi has always been quiet, even when she speaks, she is soft.

However, Qibi didn't even look at her in displeasure.

On the contrary, Concubine Huan smiled and saluted: "Sister Qi Concubine is good."

"Sister, you don't need to be too polite." Concubine Qi smiled and helped Concubine Fu Huan, but her eyes only glanced at Concubine Qi lightly.

Regarding Qipin's lack of discipline and arrogance, she could only turn a blind eye.

"My sister came just in time, so I need to explain to my concubine. Just now in the Queen's Palace, my concubine also kindly stopped me. Unexpectedly, my sister Qibi misunderstood me." Concubine Huan's worried appearance made Qipin even more anxious. displeasure.

Qi Concubine looked at Qi Concubine lightly, and then smiled: "Sister, there is no need to worry too much, Qi Concubine's temperament is straightforward, and the reason is still understandable. Sister Huan Concubine has always been on good terms with people, so it is also true to deliberately offend her by saying something. In order to prevent people from spreading rumors that Qibin was harmed afterwards, Qibin won't understand, don't you think so?"

Concubine Qi looked at Concubine Qi, with a warning in her eyes.

Although Concubine Qi is not convinced by Concubine Qi, they are also sisters who are connected by blood. She must have a reason for doing so at this moment, so she can only suppress her anger and say with a smirk: "Sister Qi Concubine said yes, sister Isn't this intended to scare Concubine Huan?"

Although she is a bit impatient, she still knows when to do what to live in the palace.

Approaching Concubine Huan, she gave a low smile: "Look, my sister was taken aback for a while, just now... Thank you, sister."

Concubine Huan also pretended to be surprised and chatted with them a few words before leaving with an excuse.

"My sister hasn't been to my sister's palace for a long time, and I miss the shredded taro made by my sister very much. Will my sister entertain my sister?" Seeing Concubine Huan leaving, Qi Concubine approached and said to Concubine Qi, but there was some humiliation in her eyes color.

Concubine Qi didn't change her face when she heard the words.

"Since my sister wants to eat, I will cook for myself." The two chatted and drifted away.

The few concubines who followed behind had a good relationship, but they began to discuss quietly.

"Concubine Qi is gentle and concubine Qi, she never cares about being rude to her." Li Ying, who was still short in the palace, said as he looked at the disappearing figure in front of him.

"If you want me to say that Concubine Qi is too easy to bully." Sheng Meiren's tone looked down on Concubine Qi, in her opinion, for a person who is a concubine and is loved by the emperor, to be bullied like this is a sign of incompetence.

On the other hand, the beautiful chess player on the side smiled and shook her head: "You two don't know, but the concubine Qi and the concubine Qi are half-sisters. What do the two sisters care about?"

"Sister Qi, don't tell me, I really can't guess it. But this concubine Qi doesn't seem to respect Concubine Qi very much." Li promised with a look of astonishment, she didn't come from a high background, and didn't have much influence, so naturally she didn't dare to confront her. High-ranking and favored concubines do more inquisition in order to protect themselves wisely, but they never thought that Qi Concubine and Qi Concubine actually have such a relationship.

"I'm afraid it's because of the difference between the concubine and the concubines that this is the case?" Sheng Meiren asked speculatively.

The beautiful chess girl smiled and nodded, and after a little mention to them, they also drifted away.

And just when Zhang Cheng returned to the imperial study to renew the decree, Jun Liuyi was also placed in the side hall of the imperial study by Sikong Qimo to rest because of his injuries and fatigue from the journey.

"See Your Majesty."

The person who was reviewing the memorial did not raise his head, but the pen in his hand stopped.

"how?"

"If you go back to the emperor, when the slaves go, all the masters will be in the empress's palace. The empress said that she will consider the title, and then decide with the emperor." Taking the empress's words back intact, Zhang Cheng respectfully stood aside.

Decide with him?

The corners of Sikong Qimo's mouth curled up, but she knew how to seize opportunities.

Seeing the mocking smile on the corner of the master's mouth, Zhang Cheng served him more carefully.

"Forget it, I should also go to the Queen's Palace." Putting down the pen, Sikong Qi Mo folded the memorial.

"Is the emperor staying in Yingfeng Palace tonight?" Zhang Cheng asked with a bow.

"Well, you go and make arrangements." Sikong Qi Mo frowned with some disgust.

"Yes!" Zhang Cheng saw that the emperor's expression was not very good, he knew that his master was very displeased with the empress' trick to lure him, and he also considered whether the next words to remind his master were appropriate or not.

"Your Majesty, my servant has a sentence that I don't know whether to ask or not." After weighing Jun Liuyi's weight in the emperor's heart, Zhang Cheng summoned up the courage to ask.

He knows very well that the master doesn't like the slave to go beyond the rules when it comes to things that are not his duty.

But as far as the master cares about Jun Liuyi, if she is wronged because he neglected to remind her, I am afraid that the master will be even more annoyed.

"Say." Sikong Qimo glanced at Zhang Cheng and nodded.

"Back to the emperor, Miss Liu Yi hasn't settled down yet, and the order hasn't come down yet..." Zhang Cheng didn't continue, but Sikong Qi Mo already understood.

It's not that he was negligent, but that he wanted to give her the freedom to choose.

However, the queen delayed the title, and if the order is not fulfilled, the name will not be justified.

With a cold snort, Sikong Qi Mo's eyes burst into a dangerous light.

The queen's killing two birds with one stone is a fine game.

At this moment, Jun Liuyi also faintly woke up and walked out of the side hall.

Seeing her approaching, the lines on Sikong Qi Mo's face softened slightly.

"Your Majesty!" Jun Liu saluted according to the rules, but Sikong Qi Mo could feel that once she entered the palace, she became alienated again.

Knowing that they need time to adapt to each other, they are not angry: "Has Liu Yi thought about where to live?"

Hearing this, Jun Liuyi looked up at him for a long time before slowly asking: "Is it my choice, the emperor agrees?"
