Pick up a princess

Chapter 450 New Year (27)

Hearing her whisper, Hongxuan sighed softly, knowing that she was concerned about accepting Tong Zhi as his side concubine at the New Year's Eve family banquet tonight, so he put his arms around her waist tightly and asked softly, "Qing Son, then tell me first, are you angry with me? Because tonight's family dinner, I did not reject the proposal of the emperor?"

Shen Qingshi scooped up the ginseng soup and put it into her mouth without taste. Finally, she shrugged her shoulders and raised a wry smile: "Concubine Gong is watching covetously, can you refuse? To refuse your father is to resist the order... "

"You're right. In full view, I really can't refuse..." Hongxuan was also calm, with a flash of admiration flashing across his smiling eyes. "Qing'er, you are very knowledgeable. Although today's proposal caught people off guard, you have not been provoked by Concubine Gong's words... I know I'm already forcing you!"

Facing Hongxuan's praise, Shen Qing felt no joy at all for the first time, she knew the general idea, this compliment was very ironic when applied to her!Just because she knows the big picture, should she share a husband with another woman?

In normal times, she might argue loudly with him, but Emperor Ming had already told her that it was Hongxuan's own decision, what else could she do?

Could it be that she pointed at his nose and questioned him like a resentful woman, did she want her or his childhood sweetheart?
I'm afraid she will never be able to do such a thing in her life!

"Hongxuan, I'm tired..." Shen Qing closed her eyes and sighed, it wasn't the body that was tired, but the heart.She only knows that in the huge harem, it is not easy to be alone. Originally, she only wanted to be a carefree princess, but God did not allow her to do so.

If the eldest brother and Hongxuan were not the same person, would she be as sad as she is today?
She couldn't explain it herself, maybe unconsciously, she just let herself fall into the vortex of feelings...

"Take a rest when you're tired!" Seeing her sleepy look, Hongxuan kissed her lips, stood up and hugged her, ready to walk to the room.Shen Qing buried herself in his arms and remained silent for a while, then suddenly laughed at herself:
"Hongxuan, do you know why I'm so afraid of your concubine?" Shen Qing leaned her head on his shoulder and murmured, "I said that I've never been a kind person...I also hate the feeling of being jealous because of love. But I'm afraid... I will also become the kind of woman who calculates others in order to win favor! I'm afraid... I will end up involuntarily, getting deeper and deeper!"
