Chapter 145
Facing the irritable Princess Wangshu who wanted to kill someone, Aunt Xu Lan quickly stepped forward with a smile and said: "Princess, please calm down, my lady is asking the slaves to invite you in."
When I was working as an errand in the palace of Queen Mingxian, it was because of the bad relationship between Queen Mingxian and Concubine Mei that the princess rarely came to Qianning Palace when she grew up. Xu Lan was a maid in the inner chamber and did not have much contact with the princess. When you come into contact with him, you only know that he has a distinguished status and should not be messed with.
When we met today, Xu Lan still respected Princess Wangshu very much in her heart. She was not at all as proud as Concubine Ming. She was not as complacent as the slaves around other concubines.
Qi Wangshu threw his hands angrily, and without even looking at Xu Lan, he pulled Liang Huanqing and walked straight in. He was so angry that she was a princess, and Lu Huiling actually dared to let her wait outside the door for so long. Don't take her seriously.
Qi Wangshu took Liang Huanqing and walked straight to the main hall. Lu Huiling was sitting elegantly on the table enjoying tea. When he saw Qi Wangshu and Liang Huanqing coming, he stood up and saluted Qi Wangshu: "Your Highness the Princess."
Although Lu Huiling is now a concubine, the status of the eldest princess in the harem is still higher than hers, and she still needs to bow when she sees Qi Wangshu.
Qi Wangshu snorted angrily and turned away from her, deliberately trying to embarrass Lu Huiling, but Lu Huiling didn't care about this and turned to look at Liang Huanqing.
But this evening was different from the past. Liang Huanqing slightly bent his knees and saluted her: "Ming Fei."
Seeing their appearance, Lu Huiling couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Hahahahaha, we used to be sisters, but now we can sit down wherever we are polite."
Seeing her like this, Qi Wangshu and Liang Huanqing were no longer polite to her: "Hand over Jiang Yi."
"Who is Jiang Yi?" Lu Huiling leaned on the seat, holding the grapes with her delicate jade fingers and peeling them carefully.
"Stop pretending! It's the maid you captured in the Imperial Garden." Liang Huanqing said anxiously, "Hurry up and hand her over!"
"Why are you in a hurry?" Lu Huiling said slowly, "We haven't seen you for so long, and you yelled at me as soon as you came in. Please recognize your current identity."
Just when Liang Huanqing was about to impulsively step forward, she couldn't stand Lu Huiling's pretentious look now and had to teach her a lesson.
Qi Wangshu was still calm and quickly grabbed Liang Huanqing. Although she also wanted to teach Lu Huiling a lesson, this was in Minghua Hall after all. Lu Huiling was also her father's favorite concubine, so there wouldn't be much trouble then. Well, if the father only listens to Lu Huiling's words, Qi Wangshu and Liang Huanqing will not be able to take advantage.
Lu Huiling saw her and covered her mouth with a smile: "Princess Wangshu is still well-educated after all. We haven't seen her for a long time. Let's sit down and chat. I miss you so much."
Qi Wangshu turned around and whispered to Liang Huanqing: "Don't be impulsive. After all, Jiang Yi is in her hands. Let's see what she has to say first."
After hearing this, Liang Huanqing thought it was very reasonable, so he also sat down together.
Seeing Qi Wangshu and Liang Huanqing sitting there with dark faces, fidgeting like ants on an iron plate, Lu Huiling felt inexplicably happy for some reason: "Come, Xu Lan, serve tea and fruits to the two masters. Well, after waiting outside the door for so long, you still haven’t had dinner, right?”
"Lu Huiling, what are you going to say?!" Qi Wangshu didn't want to talk to her in vain anymore, so he asked bluntly.
"I don't want to say anything, but I just want to ask Liang Huanqing, is it good to be a princess?" Lu Huiling looked at Liang Huanqing with her long hair tied up in a bun behind her head, wearing the royal clothes made by the princess, with indifference in her eyes.
"What does it have to do with you? You are my father's concubine now!" Qi Wangshu stood in front of Liang Huanqing, preventing Lu Huiling from looking at her again.
Liang Huanqing looked at Lu Huiling and remembered that Jiang Yi once said about Lu Huiling's pursuit of Qi Jingqin, and also recalled the way Lu Huiling looked at Qi Jingqin at dinners, full of love.
If Lu Huiling entered the palace as a concubine in order to take revenge on Liang Huanqing, who was Princess Jing, then Liang Huanqing believed that if it were herself, she would never feel such deep resentment because of loving someone.
"Thanks to Mrs. Lao's concern, everything is fine." Liang Huanqing looked at Lu Huiling indifferently and said calmly.
Lu Huiling couldn't stand Liang Huanqing's indifferent look, as if she didn't take her seriously. She threw the peeled grapes in her hands on the table, wiped the juice on her hands with a handkerchief, and then
He stood up and walked towards Liang Huanqing.
"What are you going to do!" Qi Wangshu also stood up and stood in front of Liang Huanqing, preventing Lu Huiling from approaching her.
Xu Lan stood aside and had no idea what was going on. She also didn't understand why Concubine Ming became so excited when she mentioned "Princess". With the three equally noble masters, she stood aside at a loss for a while.
"What do I do? Liang Huanqing! You made me look like what I am today!" Lu Huiling remembered what Zhao Peiyu said to her when she came a few days ago.
Lu Huiling is still young, but the emperor is already old and will not live long at all. Then what should Lu Huiling do when the emperor gets old? She could have lived a peaceful life, she could have lived a peaceful life as a husband and raised children, all because of Liang Huanqing
, which made her feel resentful and suddenly let herself fall into this endless abyss.
Lu Huiling blamed all her fears and complaints about the future on Liang Huanqing. She had no idea that all of this was given by her father.
"All this is your own choice, what does it have to do with me?!" Liang Huanqing stood up, frowned and said seriously to Lu Huiling, "I'm not here to argue with you today, since you think the status quo is not satisfactory.
, you can work hard to change the status quo instead of just blaming others!"
"Hahahahahahaha, if it weren't for you, why would I have chosen this path?!" Lu Huiling laughed so sadly that it made people feel uncomfortable.
Qi Wangshu and Liang Huanqing looked at each other, and they guessed that Lu Huiling's purpose in entering the palace was because Qi Jingqin married Liang Huanqing, and then he felt resentful and wanted revenge. However, his status was lower than that of Liang Huanqing, so he thought of taking advantage of his appearance.
The advantage is to enter the palace and become a concubine.
It’s simply heartbreaking!
"I don't want to talk to you so much now. Hand over Jiang Yi." Liang Huanqing said seriously.
"Jiang Yi? Are you talking about the maid in the imperial garden today?" Lu Huiling turned her back to them and said with a smile: "She rushed into me and was killed by me with my staff."
"Lu Huiling!" Qi Wangshu scolded sternly, "You are no longer a human being after all!"
When Liang Huanqing heard this, he stayed where he was as if he had been struck by lightning.
"I'm going to tell my father, the emperor, and my concubine now!" Qi Wangshu said and was about to walk out.
Now Lu Huiling said that she killed Jiang Yi. She was Liang Huanqing's personal maid, but a concubine in the harem was killed with a stick at will. It was an overstep. This kind of thing cannot be delayed any longer.
"You go, the emperor is busy dealing with food and grass matters at this time, you can go ahead." Since Lu Huiling dared to say this, it was obvious that she was not afraid at all.
Qi Wangshu didn't care about this. Lu Huiling was simply lawless. She had to find her mother and concubine to make the decision: "Huanqing, please wait here for a while. I will find my mother and concubine over soon!"
Qi Wangshu hurriedly ran out of Minghua Hall. The palace attendants in Minghua Hall did not stop him and allowed the princess to run out.
Lu Huiling just smiled indifferently when he saw her going out. She was being pampered now, and besides, she was just a maid of Jiang Yi, so she couldn't cause much trouble.
What is worth laughing at is that Qi Wangshu can't do anything to her now. When something happens, he can only go to Concubine Mei to seek justice, which makes her very happy.
Liang Huanqing clenched her fists and stayed there trembling all over. Her eyes were slightly red. She looked at Lu Huiling and said through gritted teeth, "Where is Jiang Yi now?"
Lu Huiling liked to see her like this, extremely depressed, like a trapped animal in a cage.
"Her." Lu Huiling turned around and sat back down, picked up the grapes that had just been peeled and put them in her mouth. The sweet juice bloomed between her lips and teeth. Lu Huiling closed her eyes and enjoyed it.
"Hmm~ Today's grapes are so sweet. Princess, would you like to try them?"
After saying that, Lu Huiling smiled and handed one to Liang Huanqing. Her eyes were clean and pure, pretending to be pitiful. She was obviously the perpetrator, but her face looked innocent. She smiled and handed it to Liang Huanqing.
Liang Huanqing handed the grapes, and those who didn't know it thought they had a good relationship.
Liang Huanqing looked at her coldly, but there was an unknown fire burning in his heart. Although Jiang Yi was just a maid with a lifeless life in the eyes of others, after all, she had been with him day and night for so long. People always have feelings, and Jiang Yi was so simple.
She is kind and makes people happy. In her heart, Jiang Yi is already the closest person to her in the palace besides Yue Bai.
"Don't you want to eat it?" Lu Huiling smiled, shook her head with regret, peeled the grapes and put them to Liang Huanqing's mouth, "Hey, I've peeled them for you, try it."
Lu Huiling smiled like a flower, with a pure smile on her face.
Liang Huanqing, on the other hand, looked solemn, full of anger, and stared at Lu Huiling fiercely.
Lu Huiling smiled and put the grapes to Liang Huanqing's mouth, and she could eat them as long as she lowered her head.
The two of them just looked at each other, Liang Huanqing's eyes were hot, as if they were burning Lu Huiling. Lu Huiling's eyes were cold and ruthless, as if the Liang Huanqing in front of her was her father-killing enemy for many years, and now he was...
To make a break.
The atmosphere in the entire main hall of Minghua Hall was extremely strange. Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Xu Lan quickly bowed her head and stood aside silently.
"How can you still laugh?" Liang Huanqing asked in a low voice.
Liang Huanqing really didn't understand that Lu Huiling was just a bit arrogant and domineering in the past, but she had never heard of her killing anyone. Everyone was an official lady, so naturally they had the bad habit of being pampered, but what Liang Huanqing didn't expect was that,
Lu Huiling killed three people in a row, but still managed to laugh.
