My princess always wants me to usurp the throne

Chapter 139 No one is simple
Eunuch Liu brought all the noble girls to the empress, and then stepped aside. As soon as he moved away, Shen Muxue, who was following him closely, stood at the front.

The 35 women stood in four rows, only Wang Xiluo was absent.

Everyone has been well-dressed and has a noble status. They are in the imperial garden, looking around, it seems like a spring scene in the garden, with a hundred flowers blooming.

Shen Qianxia and Xie Shitong stood in the back row, and beside them were the daughters of the two ladies who had mistakenly identified themselves just outside the palace gate.

He must have thought that he had offended Shen Muxue, so he didn't want to be too conspicuous at this time.

Shen Qianxia learned from Xie Shitong that one of them was Su Guo, daughter of Dingbei Hou Su Jing.

He is hearty, looks quite heroic, and looks very comfortable.

The other Xu Xiaoxiao is the daughter of Concubine Xu's younger sister. Concubine Xu is the biological mother of the third prince Rong Lu, and she can also be regarded as Rong Lu's cousin.

After learning the identities of the two, Shen Qianxia thought for a moment.

Ordinarily, with such a distinguished status, even if their mothers admit the wrong person, they don't have to be so trembling.

In the land of tigers and wolves, no one is simple...

The breeze came slowly, and there was a moment of tranquility.

Facing the empress, a sense of tension welled up in my heart, and everyone bowed to see each other: "Daughters of the people see the emperor, empress."

Emperor Ming said indifferently: "Exemption."

Everyone stood up straight, put away those petty emotions, and tried their best to hold a decent posture.

Shen Muxue's heart was pounding, as if an imperial decree was about to be announced.

Among the many noble ladies, a few had entered the palace before, and some had seen the emperor and empress from afar, but it was the first time to meet the emperor and empress at such a close distance at the same time.

Even Lu Yingying and Gu Qingru were a little nervous.

Emperor Ming glanced over one by one, then looked at the queen, and asked with a smile: "What kind of problem does the queen plan to test them with?"

The queen smiled sweetly, "How dare a concubine make a problem? What if the crown prince blames it for his concubines, what should we do?"

The tone is soft, like a spring breeze, not lacking in dignity, but also has the shy look of a little woman.

No wonder he was favored by Emperor Ming.

Emperor Ming smiled heartily and heartily, his brows and eyes were curved, and most of the majesty of the king dissipated from his body.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, the superior person in front of them was not as scary as imagined, but rather like a loving and ordinary couple, giving people a feeling of affinity.

After a while, Emperor Ming asked her softly: "Then you mean just a little competition?"

The queen thought for a moment, then said lightly: "That's not true. How can such an important matter as the crown prince choose a concubine be a joke? Since he entrusts this matter to his concubines, he still has to strictly select people with good looks."

Emperor Ming nodded when he heard the words, and glanced at the noble ladies in the front row again, his tone was not as gentle as talking to the empress, but a little colder.

"The queen is right. The prince's woman must be excellent in all aspects, and there is no room for falsehood."

As soon as these words came out, the noble ladies who were originally relaxed felt their hearts in their throats again.

Especially Shen Muxue, she always felt that the words of the emperor and the empress seemed to be insinuating, and her heart tightened accordingly.

It was as if the secret things were known, and the ugly side couldn't be concealed.

The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became, and her legs shook uncontrollably. She tried to calm down, but the harder she tried, the worse it became, and the light in her eyes gradually dimmed.

The queen's gaze stayed on her, "Shen Muxue? What's wrong with you?"

Shen Muxue let out an ah, quickly lowered her head, and said cautiously: "Going back to the empress, the daughter of the people is excited when she sees the emperor and empress."

Emperor Ming raised his eyebrows, "You are Shen Muxue?"

Shen Muxue was really excited, she answered with a trembling voice: "Yes."

Emperor Ming watched for a moment, looked away, stopped talking, and looked at the queen gradually softly.
