Chapter 89: Eighteen Phoenix Rings (5)
Jingyi settled her mind, and said lightly: "If my daughter remembers correctly, this flower should be called 'Eighteen Phoenix Ring'."

"Oh?" The queen repeated with interest: "'Eighteen Phoenix Ring'? This name is interesting. It fits somewhat with this flower shape. Sister Concubine Xian, is Miss Su right?"

Concubine Xian smiled and said: "Empress, this Miss Su is really knowledgeable and talented, and my concubine admires it! This chrysanthemum is indeed called 'Eighteen Phoenix Ring', which is exactly why this concubine insists on asking you to come here. Bet the lottery yourself."

Jingyi hurriedly blessed her body and said: "Thank you Concubine Xian for your praise, it's just a fluke."

The queen said with a big smile on her face: "As expected, she is worthy of being the number one talented woman in the capital."

Concubine Xian said again: "The name of this chrysanthemum is 'Eighteen Phoenix Ring', and the lottery you personally placed is 'Bracelet', isn't it 'Phoenix Ring'?"

It was only then that everyone suddenly realized that none of the empress's headgear today surpassed the red jadeite drop bead phoenix-headed golden step, only the bracelet in her hand surpassed the beauty of that golden step.Naturally, the empress could not admit defeat to a concubine under any circumstances, and her lottery would most likely be this bracelet.

No wonder Concubine Xian insisted that the lottery of this pot of chrysanthemums should come from the empress, it turned out that there was such a deep meaning.

The queen pursed her lips and smiled, and said to Concubine Xian: "What a 'Eighteen Phoenix Ring', yes, yes! It's only natural that I made this bracelet today! Someone, go, and send this bracelet to Miss Su. " Then he said to the people below: "Everyone is free, don't hold back any more, the original intention of this palace is to let everyone come to enjoy the chrysanthemum, and everyone can enjoy it by themselves."

Jing Yi thanked her, took the bracelet and returned to her seat.The people below also began to admire the chrysanthemums or chat in twos and threes.

Cui Qianqian laughed and said: "My sister has made a fortune today. Look, the two most valuable prizes have come to you! When you go back, you have to treat me!"

But Liu Wan'er helped Jingyi and said: "Sister Cui's words are not right. If you hadn't met that 'green dress and red dress' in the Hou Mansion that day, how could you have answered correctly today and won a pair of agate earrings? I said, this guest must be invited, but the person who treats the guest must be replaced by Sister Cui."

Gu Yu also smiled and said: "That's right, sister Cui will invite cousin Yiyi, and sister Wan'er and I will accompany you."

Cui Qianqian smiled and stared at the two of them, "It's okay to treat guests, but it's not for you two!"

These girls were chatting and laughing in low voices here, while Bai Min'er was sitting there alone sulking.But what's so great about a lady from the Houfu?Why is this praise, that appreciation?I am a dignified daughter of the Duke's Mansion, and I have been taught by various famous teachers since I was a child. How can I not compare to her?Why do I always get told that I love getting into trouble?
Cui Moli came to Bai Miner's side, and said softly, "What's wrong with Miss Bai?"

Bai Min'er glanced at the person who came, then turned her head to look in Su Jingyi's direction, and said bitterly: "Hmph! She's just a lady from the Houfu, what's so special about it?"

Cui Moli smiled and said: "Yes, Miss Bai is so smart and noble. However, this Su Jingyi is very popular. You see, even the eldest sister has played with her. They are also sisters Woolen cloth."

"Hmph!" Bai Min'er snorted coldly, turned her head, and stopped looking at them.

Cui Moli glanced in Su Jingyi's direction, a gleam flashed in her eyes, and said, "Miss Bai, it is said that you are the daughter of the son of the protector of the country, and the niece of the empress empress, who is rushing to curry favor with you?" It’s only the elder sister who always says that if you don’t do well, there’s nothing wrong with it. Let me see, the elder sister must have been bewitched by Su Jingyi.”

When Bai Min'er heard this, her face immediately flushed with anger. Cui Qianqian was obviously her cousin, but on this occasion, she just greeted herself, and then stayed with Jingyi and the others, talking about making trouble, It's clear that she doesn't regard herself as a cousin.

Hmph, I don't care if you don't treat me as your younger sister.When I become a princess in the future and you rush to curry favor with me, I'll show you off!Thinking of this, Bai Min'er felt a little better.

At this moment, Cui Moli said again: "I overheard that the queen plans to make Su Jingyi's cousin, Gu Yu, the second prince's concubine?"

"What? The second prince?" Bai Min'er exclaimed, "How is this possible? The second cousin is going to marry me as the concubine."

Cui Moli hurriedly said: "My Miss Bai, who doesn't curry favor with that General Weiyuan now? I heard that even the queen is trying to win over General Weiyuan and Pingnanhou Mansion. Think about it, the fastest and fastest way to win over them is What is the safe way?"

Bai Min'er rolled her eyes, "Marriage?"

"That's right. Miss Bai, alas, if you were older now, maybe the empress would allow you to be her concubine because you are her own niece. But right now, you are too young, and besides, , the identity of General Weiyuan is there. How can it not be tempting?"

"What's so great about General Weiyuan? He doesn't have a title?" Bai Min'er said disdainfully.

"Hey, Miss Bai, the title is important now, but it's not as important as the military power! Think about it, if the second prince married that Gu Yu, wouldn't he be supported by General Weiyuan?"

Bai Min'er glanced at her sharply, "Cui Moli, do you really not know or are you pretending not to know. This Gu Yu has long been engaged to the prince of England. How can he become the second prince and concubine?"

Cui Moli smiled softly, "Miss Bai, do you think it's enough just to be engaged? Can't you change it?"

Bai Min'er was startled: "What do you mean?"

"I heard that the empress intends to let her be alone with the second prince. At that time, her boudoir reputation will be damaged, and her engagement with the prince of the British government will naturally be uncountable. And it is only natural for the second prince to marry Gu Yu." It's over!"

Bai Min'er's face changed, no, she can't let the second prince marry that Gu Yu!The second prince belongs to her, and she is the future prince and concubine!

Cui Moli saw that Bai Min'er's face was cloudy and uncertain, and she laughed secretly. She was raised according to the standards of a princess, she is a fool!I was moved by just a few words, it's really easy to lie!
In fact, the empress and the second prince did have this idea, but they did not marry Gu Yu as the main concubine, but the side concubine, it was just a word missing.The taste is quite different.This Bai Min'er is only nine years old, even if he is taught by someone, he is still far behind in terms of intrigue!In the Duke Protector's mansion, who didn't use her as a bodhisattva for offering, lest she bump into, bump into, or make a slight mistake.Where has she experienced open and secret fights in the house like Cui Moli?So it's not that Bai Min'er is stupid, but that she is too simple.
