The eldest daughter, her weak character has collapsed again

Chapter 308 What Do You Think I Want

The palace, in the imperial study.

The chief eunuch retreated from the Golden Palace and saw Pin Ting's figure approaching, hurriedly rolled up his sleeves and bowed, saying, "I have seen Lady Zhaoyi."

Xu Rongqiao returned a salute, "Elder-in-law has worked hard."

After she finished speaking, the maid next to her handed a purse to the chief eunuch with discernment.

The chief eunuch smiled back, stretched out his hand under his sleeve, took the purse, and said softly, "Your Majesty is in a good mood today."

Hearing this, Xu Rongqiao nodded slightly, and walked slowly towards the main hall.

In the palace, the middle-aged emperor leaned on the golden throne and was drinking tea. After hearing the news from the eunuchs in the palace, Xiao Changcun raised his eyes slightly, his eyes were slightly black, but he was full of energy, "Let Zhaoyi in quickly. "

The rumored eunuch bowed and left, and after a while, the figure of a woman approached.

"The concubine sees Your Majesty." Xu Rongqiao blessed his body and saluted respectfully.

"Concubine Ai, come and sit."

Xiao Changcun beckoned and signaled Xu Rongqiao to sit beside him.

"Yes." Xu Rongqiao went over as he said, and then lightly thumped the person's leg, seemingly casually mentioning, "Your Majesty, I see that many younger sisters are going to enter the palace again."

Hearing this, Xiao Changcun looked over and smiled, "Why, I'm jealous, this is the rule every year, the queen will watch."

Xu Rongqiao turned her head slightly, "Of course the concubine didn't mean that, I just asked casually, time flies so fast."

"Speaking of which, the concubine heard that the girls of the Pei family are all past their prime years, so why haven't they seen marriage yet?"

The term Pei family is hardly mentioned by concubines in the harem.

Only Xu Zhaoyi, relying on the emperor's favor, dared to mention it.

Sure enough, the smile on Xiao Changcun's face faded after hearing the word Pei Fu, "Zhaoyi, there are some things that you shouldn't ask, so don't ask."

The voice just fell.

Xu Rongqiao got up immediately, knelt down in front of the emperor, said in a weak voice, "It's the concubine who made a slip of the tongue, and I hope His Majesty can't blame it."

Xiao Changcun's eyes darkened. Seeing the panicked expression of the woman, he couldn't bear to blame him, so he raised his hand, "Okay, get up, I didn't say to blame you, okay, you came to me today for Say this?"

"His Majesty."

Xu Rongqiao stood up and sat next to Xiao Changcun, hiding the emotions in his eyes, "The concubine made some cakes and sent them to His Majesty to taste."

After that, she yelled out the door, "I haven't brought it in yet."

Immediately after a court lady came over with a plate, Xu Rongqiao stood up and took the plate, put it on the low table in front of him, looked at Xiao Changcun, and smiled softly, "Your Majesty, why don't you try the almond cake made by my concubine? "

"Okay, it's hard for you to have this kind of heart." Xiao Changcun's expression softened, and he seemed to think of something again, "I remember that you came from the Xu family, the family of Jing Jing's mother and concubine, right?"

The twelfth prince, Xiao Jingyang, and his mother, Concubine Shu, are the daughters of the Xu family, and they do not fight or grab each other on weekdays.

The poor child has been in poor health since he was born, and he doesn't know what's going on now.

Hearing this, Xu Rongqiao's eyes darkened, and then she smiled and said, "Yes, Concubine Shu and my concubines have a very close relationship, and concubines often visit Concubine Shu."

"Yes, it would be good to see her more."

Xiao Changcun took a bite of the almond cake, paused, and said.

In a blink of an eye, it was the day before the draft.

The list of all departments has been put in place, and a series of matters such as the announcement have been made, and each household has been notified one by one.

Taifu's house.

A figure hurried over, only to hear the flustered voice, "Please inform me, I want to see Mrs. Shen during the Xiasu period."

It was Yu Qi who changed his surname after returning to the Su family and entered the family tree.

The guard at the gate: "Wait a moment."

When Yuan Qian received the news, he didn't dare to delay, and immediately went to Fengqi Pavilion.

Today is sunny, the weather is just right, Ming Xin and Ming Xi are sitting in the courtyard with Pei Yanru.

Seeing Yuan Qianlai, Ming Xi and Ming Xin blessed the body, "Guard Yuan."

Hearing the voice, Pei Yanru looked back, not surprised.

It's time too.

"Ma'am, the second son of the Su family came to see you outside, saying that he wanted to see you."

For the past half month, Yu Qi has been calm.

Pei Yanru looked down at the tea leaves floating in the teacup, and said unhurriedly, "Ask him to come in through the back door, and refuse on the face of it."

But after all, it's a young man's heart, and it's a big thorn in her Taifu's family, so it's hard to explain when she goes back.

Yuan Qian paused, came back to his senses, and cupped his hands, "Yes."

Su Qi waited for a while, feeling anxious. When he saw someone approaching, he hurried forward, "What does Madam say?"

Yuan Qian glanced at him like an idiot, "Master Su, please go back, Madam can't help you."

"what?"

Su Qi's eyes widened slightly, full of disbelief.

Obviously she was the one who deliberately revealed to him the news that Wan'er was going to enter the palace, so he made up his mind to go back to the Su family.

Now there's no way he can't save Wan'er, yet she doesn't see her behind closed doors?

What's the point!
For the first time, Su Qi felt that he was being tricked by someone, and he was in a hurry, "Obviously she is your wife—"

"My lord is careful, what Madam means is that you are allowed to enter through the back door."

Yuan Qian hastily interrupted him.

This silly boy doesn't know what's the point of Madam helping this man.

It looks silly.

Hearing this, Su Qi swallowed back the words he was about to blurt, and said in shame, "So I misunderstood Madam, and I didn't think carefully."

After finishing speaking, he cupped his hands and retreated, looking a little out of shape.

When outsiders saw him, they thought the boy had hit a wall.

In the crowd, a pair of eyes narrowed, and then quickly left.

Su Qi deliberately waited for a while before going around the Taifu's mansion through the back door.

Following Yuan An around the garden, they arrived in the courtyard. Looking from a distance, the woman was wearing a long embroidered brocade skirt and a cloak, her beautiful face was full of calmness.

With a firm mind, he walked up to the woman and cupped his hands, "I met Madam in Xiasuqi, I implore Madam to save Wan'er."

"Master Su, what do you mean by that?"

Pei Yanru raised her eyes, signaling Ming Xi to pour a cup of tea for her.

Ming Xi handed over the hot tea, Su Qi thanked him and took it, drank it all and handed it back, with a troubled expression on his face, "Ma'am, I have tried everything in the past half month, but my father has made up his mind, it is not at all I can control it."

He is not stupid, if he directly mentioned the matter of asking Wan'er not to enter the palace in front of Su's father, not only would it be useless, but he would also make his father disgusted.

It's nothing to him that his father dislikes him, but now in the Su family, Wan'er can only rely on him.

"Then what are you looking for me for? You should know that the Su family and the Pei family are enemies."

Pei Yanru looked indifferent, and took a sip of tea.

"But didn't Madam help me?"

Su Qi calmed down, his eyes burning, "Ma'am, you don't think it's just for me to go back to Su's house, does it?"

"You're smart, but what do you think I want?"

Pei Yanru raised her eyes and chuckled lightly.
