"Compared with the past, the Empress today is really different. What do you want to prove by belittling me like this? It doesn't matter whether the Empress likes me or not. What matters is whether Your Majesty likes me. I!"
Qiong Hua forced herself to raise her head, not letting herself back down. She could lose to any woman in the harem, but she didn't want to lose to the queen!
"You are only seventeen years old this year. Considering that you are still young, I won't care about this with you. When time goes by, you will know how ridiculous you look in front of me today! "
As expected, the ignorant are fearless. At this age, when you are most bold, you are not afraid of anything, thinking that you are destined to be the most special one.
Tao Yao smiled and looked away. Was it Qiong Hua's fault? It didn't seem to be entirely her fault. She even understood why she got all this, so she didn't want to admit it.
Many times, he deliberately fights and takes a gamble, thinking that his position in Xiao He's heart is unique and has nothing to do with the original owner.
But the more intense the reaction, it means that you know in your heart that it is related!
"That's enough. You don't have to pretend in front of me. You can go back. His Majesty likes to keep you by his side these days. If you go back late, His Majesty might be in a hurry!"
Tao Yao sarcastically said indifferently. She could see the provocation in Qiong Hua's eyes was so obvious. The young girl didn't know the heights of the world, was ignorant and fearless, and dared to touch anything.
Seeing Qiong Hua's back showing dissatisfaction, I could only sigh with emotion, he is really a stupid kid.
"What's going on? You were fine when you went there, but why are you so angry when you come back? The queen has been wronged by you again?"
Xiao He was half leaning on the bed and reading a book. When he saw Qiong Hua running over angrily, he couldn't help but laugh.
The little girl is so cute. She laughs when she is happy and wrinkles her face when she is unhappy. Her emotions are always displayed on her face and she never hides them.
This is the advantage of being young. Just like a clear stream, you can see the bottom at a glance.
And she is already in her thirties. After these years of hard work, there are even some fine wrinkles at the corners of her eyes. The queen's eyes are not as clear as they used to be. Time has left its mark on everyone more or less. trace.
"Your Majesty clearly knew that I would feel aggrieved for going on this trip, but he still let me go. He really didn't feel sorry for me at all. He just asked me to vent my anger on the Queen!"
Qionghua was so angry and aggrieved that he was about to shed tears. He just stood upright on the edge and refused to sit by the bed. It was obvious that he was really aggrieved to the extreme.
They all say that they are His Majesty's most favored Mrs. Qionghua in the past six months, but they seem to feel that she is not. The Queen is always a rock between themselves and His Majesty, and they cannot be moved away no matter what.
Sometimes I think I occupy His Majesty's whole heart, but the Queen is always in front of me for no reason, and His Majesty always seems to prefer the Queen a little more.
Yes, your majesty and the queen did have a deep love in the past, but it has been so many years, and there are many concubines in the harem. Why do you think your majesty will only love her?
"Okay, come and sit next to me," Xiao He said helplessly as he put down his book.
"I know very well in my heart what kind of person the Queen is. I know that she will not hurt you. She is angry in her heart. I also know that I can let you vent it. You will have to live in the palace for a long time in the future. If you are completely different from the Queen, If you have a falling out, that’s the real bad thing for you.”
Xiao He tolerated Qiong Hua's temper, and in a trance he returned to the time when he and the Queen were just starting out. At that time, they were both so young and in their prime, and everything was the best time.
Now looking at his little daughter's temper, Qiong Hua couldn't help but tolerate her heartache like this.
"So is your Majesty doing all this for me?"
Qionghua sniffed aggrievedly, but he finally listened and went up to sit next to Xiao He.
"But I don't want to suffer these grievances. Your Majesty promised me that he would not let me be wronged and would give me the best. But why do I feel that no one likes me? All the concubines I only listened to the queen's words, which was very repulsive to me, and her words were even more sarcastic.
Especially that Concubine Shu, it doesn't matter if it happens once or twice, but it is like this every time. I am a human being and I have a heart. How can I not feel sad? "
This is what Qionghua feels most aggrieved about. He has to get along with the people in the harem most of the time, but it seems that no one really likes him.
They all felt that they were someone who shouldn't have appeared, and that her appearance seemed to have robbed His Majesty of him!
Why is it so ridiculous? Is it because they have no ability to get His Majesty's love, but blame themselves for getting His Majesty's love? How can there be such a funny joke in the world!
It seems that all this is tacitly approved by the queen. On the surface, the queen is dignified and generous, but she does all these shameful things in private. She also says that she got these things because she looks like the queen, but it is really unlucky!
"Okay, okay, no matter what other people do, I will always protect you. In the past six months, they have said that you did something wrong several times, but when did I listen? I brought you back. People will definitely protect you!"
Xiao He hugged Qiong Hua into his arms to comfort her. In fact, he knew that the little girl would lose her temper, but it was not a big deal.
But he just acquiesced to this kind of losing his temper because he thought this was what young people looked like. In his opinion, it was really cute and he really enjoyed it.
The queen's mood is too stable, and she has long lost the feeling she had back then. In the past ten years, she has managed all kinds of things in the harem, and has to take care of two children, so her temperament has long since changed.
Or maybe it means that when a person reaches this age, it is impossible to remain the same, to be as cute and cute as before.
He won't be like Qiong Hua at the moment, crying and fussing at every turn. He can tell what he likes and dislikes on the spot, and he won't keep it to himself.
This is the most different place between the Queen and Qiong Hua.
"Fortunately, Your Majesty loves me. Otherwise, life in the harem will really be unbearable. Otherwise, I will go back to my folk. I am not a golden branch, and I can't become a phoenix by flying on a branch. !”
Qiong Hua said angrily that she was just a daughter of a common people. She never thought that she would become the emperor's woman, let alone live in such a luxurious life.
After truly enjoying all this, I realized how wonderful it was. The clothes on my body were all silk and satin, and there were a large group of palace servants around me.
More importantly, I dared to make the queen angry many times, which I never dared to think about before!
"Why do you have to belittle yourself?" Xiao He's expression changed, "No matter what your status was in the past, it was all in the past. Now you are my personally-named Mrs. Qionghua, with noble status, fine clothes, fine food, gold and silver. From now on, you If I have a child, I can give you everything better, how can it be worse than Phoenix?"
"Is everything your Majesty said true?"
Qiong Hua looked at Xiao He with admiration, and the light of joy in his eyes almost overflowed. This man was so powerful, he could make such a big change in his destiny.
What's more important is that he is so gentle to himself and says so many intimate words, as if he really has a deep love.
"Of course it's true!"
Xiao He hugged Qiong Hua and made a solemn promise. He vaguely remembered that he had made a promise to another person before, saying that he would only show true love to her in this life.
"Your Majesty is so kind to me!"
Qionghua was so happy that she giggled. She was so cute and cute, just like a child who got a treasure, and she didn't hide her happiness.
The next day, Tao Yao got up to take care of the two children, had breakfast, and then went to Concubine Shu's palace. Princess Lin'an was ill. As a queen, she really had to go and see her, not to mention her relationship with Concubine Shu. So good.
"I send my regards to the Queen."
Seeing Tao Yao coming, Concubine Shu greeted her with a smile on her face. It was obvious that the Queen's mood seemed to be much more stable these days.
"No need to be polite," Taoyao walked over personally and helped Concubine Shu up. "How is the child in Lin'an? It's been five or six days, so he should be much better, right?"
The two of them walked to the inner room while talking. The original owner often came to Shufei Palace to visit Lin'an in the past. The child was well-behaved and obedient, and was as cute as Fu'an.
"What the empress said is that she does feel better today. I thought that I would not let her go play with Fu'an until she is completely healed in a few days, otherwise I would be afraid of infecting Fu'an."
Concubine Shu smiled helplessly. She was always a cautious person and had taken care of children. She knew how troublesome it was for children of this age to get sick, and she was reluctant to let Fu'an also be infected by her daughter.
"Fu'an always says that it's boring to play without Sister Linyang to play with her. I feel so relieved to see them sisters being so close!"
After walking in, Taoyao smiled lovingly when she saw the little man lying obediently on the bed.
The two princesses Lin'an and Fu'an were about the same age and could play together. When he saw her passing, Lin'an obediently called her Queen.
"Does your head still hurt today?"
Taoyao sat on the edge of the bed and reached out to touch Lin'an's forehead. The temperature was the same as that of a normal person. There was no burning sensation. It seemed to be much better.
"Queen, I don't feel any pain anymore!"
Lin'an shook her head obediently. Her eyes were as big and soft as Fu'an's, and her long eyelashes were blinking.
"Okay, okay, you just have to rest here. As long as you are completely healed, you can go back and forth through the maze to play with Fu'an!"
Tao Yao comforted her for a few more words, then took Concubine Shu to the outer hall.
"Yesterday I heard that Mrs. Qionghua went to Fengyi Palace again. As soon as I heard it, I knew what she wanted to do. Will the Queen be angry with her again?"
The two sat down together, and Concubine Shu poured two cups of tea. She couldn't help laughing when she talked about what happened last night.
"Sometimes I feel that the poor Chinese lady's methods are quite ridiculous, and even a bit childish. However, His Majesty seems to just accept her tricks. There is really nothing you can do!"
Concubine Shu shook her head helplessly. After witnessing how much His Majesty loved Mrs. Qionghua for more than half a year, she realized that whatever means the concubines used were just icing on the cake. What really mattered was who His Majesty's heart was for.
Just like all of them felt that Mrs. Qionghua was childish and unworthy of publicity, but His Majesty liked her and pampered her like a treasure. No matter how dissatisfied others were, what would happen?
