"Why doesn't His Majesty speak? Is this question difficult to answer? Or does it mean that His Majesty doesn't know the answer in his heart?"
Taoyao put down the teacup. The original owner always avoided this matter, but she was different. She just wanted to bring it up to make Xiao He feel embarrassed.
"When did you become so mean?"
Xiao He was speechless. He glanced at the people sitting next to him and felt that he was becoming more and more unfamiliar. Where was the dignified and gentle look from before? Why did he have to keep talking about this topic?
"It's just asking some questions. Your Majesty thinks I'm mean. In fact, it's not me who has changed, it's you. Now that you have your own preferences, you will only become more and more displeased with me. You feel that I can't say anything or do anything." It’s wrong, so the person who really changed is Your Majesty.”
These are the words that the original owner wants to say the most, but in the end he still can't bear to say them because he still cares about the relationship he has had for so many years and is worried that after these words are spoken, it will become even more difficult for the two of them to get along.
But Tao Yao was different. She didn't care about this. If Xiao He made her unhappy, then she would have to say more powerful words to make him unhappy. Only in this way would it be fair.
Sure enough, Xiao He's hand holding the wine glass suddenly turned white. He really felt that the people around him seemed different. When did his words become so sharp?
Haven't you always been a gentle and dignified person? Her temperament is gentle and generous, and you are kind to everyone in the harem. She never does anything to make you jealous. She is definitely a qualified queen, but she doesn't like Qiong Hua.
But now, no matter how I speak to him, I always say such sad and mean words, and every word is so unpleasant. It is really the first time that I feel that I have not seen my wife who has been with me for many years clearly.
"Sister Qionghua came late today. Could it be that she was delayed due to something? I guess she was preparing a gift for the Queen. Why don't we take it out and show it to us sisters to see what good thing it is?"
Li Fei smiled and said, it was clear today that she wanted to make the queen unhappy, so that sapphire bracelet would be the best thing. How could anyone compare with her younger self? No matter what, she would never be able to compare.
"The Queen," Qiong Hua reacted, glanced at Tao Tao who was standing behind him, and asked her to step forward and present the things, "This is the gift I prepared for the Queen, and I hope the Queen will accept it."
Tao Yao watched with interest, until she opened the box and saw the sapphire bracelet inside, she suddenly felt sour in her heart. This was the emotion of the original owner.
Because the sapphire bracelet was given by Xiao He when they got married. Looking at it now, it looks like the same bracelet, as if I have returned to that time, but it is clear that I can't go back to that time.
Xiao He couldn't help but take another look at this hand. The bracelet looked familiar. When had he seen it?
Li Fei lowered her head and smiled secretly. She was also a woman, so of course she knew how lethal this bracelet was.
She heard a few words at that time and knew that the Queen had a sapphire bracelet that she liked very much, so when she saw the bracelet on Qionghua's dressing table that day, she had this idea.
I can only say that His Majesty's heart seems to have really changed. The bracelet is actually nothing. What is important is that His Majesty's heart has slowly changed. It seems that this Qionghua has great good luck!
Qionghua didn't know the right and wrong of this, but it was her favorite bracelet, and she didn't want to give it out as a gift. Maybe the queen didn't like what she gave her?
"Look, Your Majesty, I think this bracelet looks a bit familiar. Does it look like the one you gave me when we first got married? You said it best matched my skin color. I still remember that at that time, I looked like Mrs. Qionghua now." At the same age, I never expected that Qiong Hua would have a bracelet similar to mine!"
Tao Yao asked someone to bring up the wooden box, picked up the sapphire bracelet with her own hands, looked at it from left to right, and then said it carelessly.
Xiao He suddenly remembered this, but the memory was too long ago. For a moment, he only thought it looked familiar, but he didn't think about it carefully.
Now that Tao Yao had said it in front of the public, everyone's eyes were fixed on the bracelet, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment.
Especially Qiong Hua, she doesn't know anything about this or what's special about this bracelet. Now that it's like this, she really thinks it's better to find a crack in the ground and get into it!
I didn't mean it at all. I could feel the eyes of the people around me with a bit of ridicule, which made me feel embarrassed. Now, they didn't like me even more!
She couldn't help but glare at Li Fei. She had never thought of taking out this bracelet. She wanted to keep her favorite things properly. Li Fei said she must give this bracelet as a gift!
Feeling the reproachful look, Li Fei could only shake her head innocently. She didn't know what happened, but she could only sigh secretly in her heart that the queen was really different.
The original bet was that the queen would think of the past when she saw this bracelet, but she didn't expect that the queen would say it out loud in front of so many people. Could it be that she didn't care about it at all?
Now, Qionghua must blame himself for the incident, but he must find some way to coax him.
"I see," Xiao He stared at the bracelet for a long time, "It turns out it was all so many years ago. I still remembered it for a moment. It was only after the queen said it that I realized that this gift from Mrs. Qionghua was not that good. thoughtful."
After finishing speaking, he looked at Qiong Hua with a hint of blame in his eyes. Normally, it would be a small fight, but how could he do such a thing in this situation? It is clear that this is not to embarrass the queen. ?
Qionghua immediately bit his lip in grievance and kept shaking his head. He really didn't know that this bracelet had such meaning. If he knew it, how could he dare to give it away? How could he dare to cause trouble like this?
At that time, I agreed to give this bracelet away after listening to Lili's words. Now it seems that I really shouldn't have listened!
"It's all my fault. I was stupid and didn't know how to give gifts. If the Queen of the West is angry, then punish me!"
Qionghua gritted her teeth and knelt forward. No matter what, this matter was her fault in everyone's eyes. So if she really wanted to be punished, she must not let His Majesty feel that she had done something wrong. Bad intentions.
This is obviously an injustice. It would be fine if I had so much thought in the beginning, but I really didn’t!
How dare you challenge the queen at this time? This time it is really like a mute eating Coptis chinensis, unable to express the pain!
"Mrs. Qionghua, what are you doing? Today is my birthday. How can you punish someone? It's too unlucky. It's just a bracelet.
When I looked at this bracelet, I thought that I once had one, and I just said a few words casually, why are you like this? I never meant to punish you, get up. "
Taoyao smiled magnanimously. It can only be said that Qionghua is indeed a bit clever. If he knows that the matter is serious, he will bow his head and admit his mistakes. It doesn't matter how small a fight is in normal times.
"Yes, the Queen is tolerant and generous. Only when I can gain forgiveness from the Queen will I feel at ease."
Qionghua knew that his mouth must be sweeter at this moment, but he couldn't suffer this grievance in vain. Do he want to make his image worse? This time was inexplicable.
Xiao He suddenly felt a little ashamed. He really couldn't explain what it was like. It seemed that apart from the few words he just said, Taoyao had never spoken to him again and just ate by herself. things in front of you.
This birthday was interesting but also boring. The bracelet still made a joke. In everyone's opinion, Qiong Hua offered this bracelet intentionally to make the queen unhappy.
After Qionghua went back, she cried and made trouble. She really felt wronged to death.
She obviously didn't mean it, but it seemed to everyone that she meant it. Now she really felt aggrieved!
"Madam, don't be sad. After all, the Queen has said herself that she doesn't mind, and it's hard for others to say anything. In a few days, this matter will slowly fade away. Who will still remember it?"
Cherry handed over the handkerchief with a look of helplessness. At the banquet just now, she could feel that Madam was unhappy all over her body. Now that she was back in her palace, she was crying and aggrieved again. She looked so pitiful that one couldn't help but feel pity for her.
"I just feel aggrieved. Why do one or two people dislike me so much? No one is willing to stand up and speak for me. They will just sit on the sidelines and watch the show.
And their sarcastic eyes, as if I did everything on purpose, disgusting! How annoying! The people in this palace are so cold and heartless! "
Qionghua pinched Xiupa, her eyes were already red from crying, but this time she really felt wronged.
In the past, it didn't seem like anything. After all, she did it intentionally, but this time she was really wronged!
"No one knows this. If the Queen hadn't said it herself, this servant wouldn't have known there was such a reason. How could the Madam know so much just after entering the palace?
In fact, there are many people who know that Madam is unjust and have no such intention at all. It's just that they don't like Madam and they still deliberately want to bully Madam! "
Cherry could only persuade her one by one. If she didn't persuade her well, who knows how long she would cry again, her eyes would be red and swollen from crying.
His Majesty came over to lose his temper again and blame them for not taking good care of the wife. He could only sigh with emotion, the wife is indeed different from other concubines.
"This is obviously Li Fei's fault. She asked me to give this bracelet as a gift. I actually liked this bracelet and didn't want to give it away at all. Do you think she did it on purpose?"
Qiong Hua had always been suspicious all the way. He had only been in the palace for more than half a year, so how could he know so much? But Concubine Li was different. She had been in the palace for so long, would she not know about the bracelet?
"It's hard to talk about this slave. After all, only Concubine Li treats Madam better. Maybe all this is really just a misunderstanding?"
Cherry frowned and didn't know what to say. Whether this was intentional or not, no one could tell. If it was because of this incident that the only good friend Li Fei was pushed to a stranger again, it didn't seem good. .
"Whether it was her fault or not, I was still embarrassed this time, and I was embarrassed in front of His Majesty. His Majesty looked at me with a hint of blame in his eyes. What if he doesn't like me in the future?"
Qionghua bit her lip and was worried. It didn't matter what happened to the concubines. What mattered was whether she could still get as much favor from His Majesty as before.
"No, no, if His Majesty was really angry, he would have been angry just now, but he didn't say anything, which means he still wants to protect his wife. Maybe he will come over later?"
Cherry wasn't worried, and it wasn't like he didn't know His Majesty's temper. In the past, when some concubines did something wrong, Your Majesty would get angry on the spot.
The bracelet matter is not a big deal in the first place, but the Queen has come out and said it doesn't matter, so who cares?
