The Prime Minister's Wife

Chapter 9
Yu Yanhua stared at Bo Qingqing, feeling the resentful eyes behind her, and Bo Qingqing smiled in her heart.

Mu Zhaoyue didn't turn her head, but she felt the eyes behind her were like knives pointing at her back. She was so scared that she couldn't help approaching Bao Qingqing.

Bo Qingqing couldn't help sniggering in her heart, and suddenly... a very penetrating gaze fell on her body, and her alertness was instantly awakened. She showed too much today, and she was afraid that some people might become suspicious.She quickly lowered her head, and her shoulders trembled slightly. In the eyes of others, she was just a frightened child. Suddenly her hand warmed up. Mu Zhaoyue was quietly holding her hand, and whispered: "Little sister-in-law, I'm here, don't be afraid."

Bo Qing nodded obediently, and faintly felt countless eyes locked on her body, resentment, exploration, curiosity, admiration, doubt... She didn't care about these, just knelt quietly. Her purpose today is very simple. There is no need for Yu Yanhua to die, death is too cheap for her, but she will be more sad than death.Glancing quietly at the flying phoenix Bu Yao on Yu Yanhua's head, Bo Qingqing's gaze turned cold. After all this tossing, Yu Yanhua's dream of being a princess became even more elusive, and a hint of mockery appeared in her eyes.

Yuyanhua raised her head fiercely, and looked at Bo Qingqing, she clearly saw that the moment Bo Qingqing's eyes saw her, there was a mixture of ridicule and frosty shimmering light, which made people feel as if they had fallen into an ice cellar, and couldn't help but Shrinking, this girl is definitely not the weak and bully on the surface.

Looking at Feng Yiyuan, the two straightened their backs as if nothing had happened, and looked at Bo Qingqing coldly. This time they underestimated the enemy, and they will definitely let her go next time.Upon receiving the other party's provocative gaze, Bo Qingqing smiled disapprovingly, accepting the challenge, her eyes were indifferent and cold.

Eunuch Tao took a look at the emperor's face, stepped forward and said to the two young eunuchs: "Hurry up and drag it on, and hit a hundred boards again, there must be no mistakes." Whether she lives or dies depends on her luck.

Bo Qingqing watched Yunji being dragged away coldly, and glanced at Yu Yanhua, who was pale and still maintained the image of a lady and a talented woman.

Thinking of my mother's tears, my mother's suffering, and my mother's death, I couldn't help feeling a little regretful in my eyes. It was a pity that Yun Ji died so quickly, and she hadn't tortured her properly.

But the emperor's order cannot be violated, and Bo Qingqing had no choice but to give up. Anyway, she never cared about this mother and daughter, and there were some ways to force them to death. Yunji died, and Yu Yanhua had to keep it. Expose Feng Yunyi's true face and couldn't do without. Take credit for her.

Recalling three years ago, she was only 11 years old, and her mother was not around. As the heir, she worked hard day and night for the strength of the family. No one ever cared about her or persuaded her. Warmly smiled and said to her: "You are a daughter's family, you don't need to be too strong, rest when you are tired, I will let you rely on, cry when you are in pain, and I will wipe your tears." Only for the warmth of that moment, Her icy defenses began to crumble.

At that time, Feng Yunyi was just an unknown prince without the support of his matrilineal family. It was she who disregarded the opposition of the family and gave him the opportunity to lead troops to fight. It was she who risked the destruction of the Bo family and provided food, grass and weapons for free. , making him a common general on the battlefield.It's just that I didn't expect that all of this was deception and use.Bo Qingqing said fiercely in her heart: "Feng Yunyi, how much I trusted you back then made the emperor doubt you as much. As long as I'm around for a day, you will never be able to sit on the crown prince."

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, it's time for you to take a seat." Mu Zhaoyue called her softly.

Bo Qingqing came back to her senses, and found that both Yu Yanhua and Feng Yiyuan had retreated, she smiled and nodded to Bo Zhaoyue: "Got it."

Looking back at Mrs. Zuo Xiang's position, after Yunji was dragged away, the eunuch immediately replaced it with a new one, but the food on it was not delivered, and he couldn't help frowning.

As soon as Bo Qingqing sat down, the little eunuch brought out all kinds of food as before. The old lady of the old Taiwei's mansion and Mrs. Taiwei sat beside her. Mrs. Taiwei pointed to a soup and said with a half-smile: "Left Mrs. Xiang, the food at the imperial banquet is expensive and rare, and it is full of color, fragrance, and rich people may not be able to taste it, so you should try it."

A cold light flashed in Bao Qingqing's eyes, these people are really disgusting, they just want her to die so much, they won't stop even for a moment.Do you really think that she was a village girl who died young and didn't understand anything, so she was easy to deceive?According to the rules at the imperial banquet, the courtiers were not allowed to move their chopsticks before the emperor moved his chopsticks. Mrs. Taiwei kept calling her, even if the emperor didn't give her a capital punishment, she would lose face of Zuo Xiangfu.

He nodded lightly, thanking the other party for his "kindness". When he looked up, he happened to see the old lady of the Yushi Mansion who was sitting a little far away, gently blowing the heat from the teacup, while shaking her head slightly, and then looked sideways at her smile.Bo Qingqing immediately responded with a smile, no matter how stupid she was, she knew that the old lady of Yushifu had kindly reminded her, besides, she was not stupid, she didn't even look at the food on the table, she sat quietly and watched the performance.

Mrs. Taiwei saw that Bo Qingqing hadn't been fooled, and she had nothing to do for a while, she snorted coldly, turned her face away and watched the performance quietly.

After drinking for three rounds, the Empress said dully: "I'm already tired of watching the singing and dancing in this palace. I heard that Concubine Qiao has arranged a new program. Why don't you present it quickly for the emperor to watch."

"Since my concubine has a new program, why not show it for everyone to enjoy." The emperor seemed dissatisfied with the singing and dancing in front of him.

Concubine Qiao stood up from the banquet. The lavender palace dress sprinkled with gold, dignified but charming, wrapped her figure very gracefully, and said softly: "Back to the emperor, this concubine does have a new one this time." Your Majesty, would you like to hear your thoughts?" Concubine Qiao's subtext was that everything was up to the Emperor.

These words greatly satisfied Emperor Yuan's desire for power. Emperor Yuan smiled boldly and said: "What a new idea, my concubine, please tell me. I think it is interesting and rewarding. If I am not satisfied, I will punish you."

"Yes, the concubine obeys the order."

Concubine Qiao happily received the decree, glanced at the banquet on the left, and replied: "Your Majesty, my concubine thinks that in the past, at the banquet, it was either a song and dance rehearsed in the palace, or a performance by the princesses in the palace and the daughters of various families. In fact, most of the sons of various families, as well as the young courtiers in the court, have both talents, why not give them a chance to show off."

Bo Qingqing smiled inwardly, this idea...is really interesting.

If it was in the past, not only the emperor and queen would not agree, but even the courtiers below would be dissatisfied.

But today is different, because the princess wants to choose a son-in-law, and those who want to climb the dragon and become the phoenix are eager for such an opportunity.

Concubine Qiao is such a smart and interesting woman... no wonder the queen also stumbled at her hands.

Haha ...

Emperor Yuan suddenly laughed out loud, pointed at Concubine Qiao and said, "The idea of ​​Concubine Ai, yes, yes, I agree. Let the sons of various families and the young courtiers perform."

Concubine Qiao immediately laughed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
