Phoenix in the Sky: Genius Little Poisonous Concubine

Chapter 6 What a pity

"Following the order of the Empress Dowager, Feng Qingjiu is called to enter the palace to have an audience immediately."

Yi Zhi is very concise and clear, but the meaning behind this sentence is quite interesting.

The Xuanzhi eunuch looked around, his eyes finally fell on Feng Qingjiu, his brows slightly frowned, "Feng Qingjiu, why don't you go with the miscellaneous family?"

"Elder-in-law, please let me change into cleaner clothes, so as not to spoil the eyes of the Empress Dowager and her old man."

Because this obliging decree came out of the blue, Feng Zhengze withdrew his hand in a timely manner, and the invisible force naturally disappeared, but she also knew that the doubts in this father's heart must still be there.

"Go, go!" Waved his hand, the Xuanzhi eunuch only felt that if he didn't agree, not to mention the eyes of the empress dowager, even his own eyes would be dirty.

The daughters of the Feng family are all naturally beautiful, and they are all radiant and charming, but they are born to this Ninth Miss, who is stupid, fat and ugly, how can she be worthy of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who is so handsome!
Feng Qingjiu went back to her room to wash and change her clothes. She just treated her arm injured by the man in black briefly, and now she wrapped it up again with a white cloth. Just as she put on her skirt, Ye Wanhua pushed the door open and came in.

"Nine children."

"mother."

"The empress dowager called you into the palace this time, and I don't know why. Mother always feels uneasy in her heart, and there is no one to take care of her in the palace. You must be more careful."

Feng Qingjiu smiled nonchalantly, "Don't worry, mother. I know it well."

Although she comforted her, Ye Wanhua still couldn't calm down. Looking at her daughter, she always felt that something was different, but she couldn't tell.

"Or, mother should go with you."

After much deliberation, it is more appropriate to follow and take care of yourself.

Feng Qingjiu was quite helpless, "No need. The empress dowager ordered me to be alone, even if the father-in-law outside is willing to let you follow, this falls in the eyes of the empress dowager, are you wary of her, or who are you wary of? "

"Can……"

"Don't worry. Even if the empress dowager sees your daughter again and I don't like it, she still has to remember my grandmother's old love, doesn't she? Well, I have to go, and my father-in-law is still waiting."

Gently patted her mother's hand, she opened the door, and turned around as if thinking of something, "Mother, after I entered the palace, you said that you were not feeling well, and you were recuperating in the room without seeing anyone."

Ye Wanhua was stunned for a moment, and was about to ask why, but immediately came to her senses, nodded and said, "Mother understands, you need to take care of yourself."

When Feng Qingjiu came out from the inner courtyard, the Xuanzhi eunuch was already impatient.

But seeing that she changed into a red dress and covered most of her face with a veil, at least she didn't look so obtrusive as before, so she didn't get angry, "Let's go."

-

Eye to nose, nose to heart.

Sitting on the stone bench in the imperial garden for more than half an hour, Feng Qingjiu is not in a hurry, as soon as it comes, she will be at ease, it is still very childish for her to deal with this situation.

Finally, the Empress Dowager, who was willing to put down the scissors, took the handkerchief handed over by the palace maid and wiped her hands, put it on the tray, then turned around to sip tea, and looked up at her.

It can be seen that when the Empress Dowager was young, she must have been a beauty. Even at this age, she still has undiminished charm, with every frown and smile that is unique to her age.

Looking up at the girl who was sitting silently, the Empress Dowager looked carefully from the top of her head to her hands on her knees, and then stopped abruptly.

Those hands are not as soft and light as a girl's at all. Although the skin is fair, it is so swollen that even the joints can't be seen clearly. The hands are almost submerged in flesh, which is really - unsightly.

"Jiu'er." She sighed and called softly.

Only then did Feng Qingjiu raise his head, stood up and saluted, "The Empress Dowager."

"It's not the court today, so there is no need to give a grand ceremony." She waved her hand, she got up and walked slowly, Feng Qingjiu followed behind unhurriedly.

The Empress Dowager walked along the cobblestone path in the imperial garden, and her voice seemed to flow slowly through the cobblestone stream, clear and thorough.

"Jiu'er, have you reached the age of Ji this year?"

The seemingly casual inquiry was to pave the way for the next important point. Feng Qingjiu knew it in her heart, but she still followed her words and answered, "Yes."

"As usual, since you have reached the age of Ji, your wedding with the crown prince should also be on the agenda."

She spoke very slowly, as if she was carefully choosing the words for each word, but her posture was leisurely and self-satisfied, as if she was just gossip.

Feng Qingjiu remained silent, she knew very well that what the Empress Dowager really wanted to say was still to come.

Sure enough, seeing that she was silent, the Empress Dowager stopped and turned to look at her.

Even with the veil on, she remembered how difficult that face was.The Empress Dowager narrowed her eyes, remembering how frightened she was when she saw it for the first time.

Back then, General Ye was also a handsome general, not only made great military exploits, but also had extraordinary power, and his good friend Han Shi was even more like a fairy, and became famous for a while.

The combination of these two people was a good story back then, but it's a pity that there was only one daughter under her knees. Although Wan Hua did not fully inherit her mother's beauty, she was still a delicate and beautiful woman. How could it be so in this generation...

I can't help feeling sorry, and it's no wonder that Yun Chao looks down on that child.

Man Shuo is a proud and arrogant young man, even if she is as faithful as she is, she can't help but regret that she was the fastest in the past.

just now-

"Jiu'er, the Ai family and your grandmother are close relatives and old friends. It's a pity that your grandmother left early, and the Ai family treats you like their own granddaughter. You and Yun Chao are both the heart of the Ai family. You Do you understand?"

"My daughter understands. My daughter deeply appreciates the great kindness of the Empress Dowager."

Feng Qingjiu lowered her head, and replied respectfully, "It's a pity that my daughter is dull and has no spiritual roots. She can't help the prince from outside, and she can't manage the inner palace from inside. My daughter has a merciless request. I implore the Empress Dowager to revoke the request." Marriage contract between the courtier's daughter and the prince."

The Empress Dowager was taken aback, looking at her with a dazed look, "What did you say?"

She almost thought that she was thinking too much, so she misheard, and the words that had been on her lips for a long time, which she hesitated to say, were just said by her, or did she take the initiative to ask for an end to the engagement?She, did you hear me right?

"The courtier is dull, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for me to assist the prince. I implore the empress dowager to cancel the engagement."

She repeated it again to show that she was not acting impulsively, let alone joking.

Surprised, the Empress Dowager looked at her seriously.

Speaking of which, the child's exposed eyes really look like Han's. The eyes are like a pool of clear water, clear and transparent but full of wisdom. Such eyes are really - what a pity!
Once again couldn't help feeling secretly, the Empress Dowager took two steps forward, stretched out her hand, took the initiative to hold her hand, and said in a gentle voice, "Son, this is a major event in your life. You, think it over? Don't you regret it?"
