She stared into Chu Jiaoli's eyes and said, "Zhonggong Huanli, what do you want?"
Xu Qingqian looked at Chu Jiaoli and couldn't help but be stunned. These two people looked exactly the same. Are they twins?
Chu Jiaoli glanced at Xu Qingqian, who was observing her and Hua Yuejin. She was a cardamom-aged woman, wearing a simple and elegant blue dress, with a pair of smart apricot eyes turning from time to time, not knowing what she was thinking. p>
Chu Jiaoli showed a faint smile without any trace, regained her calm voice, and said: "Sister Princess, as the princess, you are the mistress of the family. You must not lose your etiquette and let the prince lose his face. You
Say yes?"
Hua Yuejin looked at her unpredictable smile and suddenly felt a chill running down her spine. She had seen such a smile once upon a time.
Flash forward in my mind: when Xiang Yinli was framed and imprisoned last year, Chu Jiaoli faced her, watching the fire from the other side and smiling, so indifferently, so indifferently that it had nothing to do with her.
She swallowed, frowned in discomfort, turned her wrist, trying to break free from her restraint, and said: "Let me go!"
Hearing this, Chu Jiaoli slowly let go of her hand.
Hua Yuejin quickly took out her hand, shook her sleeves angrily, and took a step away.
Chu Jiaoli tilted her head and said to Xu Qingqian: "Sister Qingqian, what did you do just now to displease the princess? But it doesn't matter."
Xu Qingqian slowly lowered her head and sobbed: "I happened to pass by this place accidentally. Just when this camellia withered and fell to the ground, my sister saw it. She misunderstood that it was me who picked the flower... I was really wronged.
Ah!"
Chu Jiaoli looked down at the red camellia on the ground, leaned over and picked it up gracefully, saying: "It's April now, and the camellia is withering. The edges of this flower are also slightly withered and yellow, the petals are loose, and the pedicle is not picked off forcefully.
Whether the mark falls naturally or is artificial, as a princess, it is better for my sister to consider it carefully before drawing a conclusion."
After saying that, she stretched out her hand and handed the camellia in front of Hua Yuejin.
Hua Yuejin snorted coldly, glanced at Xu Qingqian, and said: "Since the concubine's sympathy is so overwhelming, why not be a good person and take her into your hospital."
Chu Jiaoli still wore a discreet smile and said: "Thank you Princess for your kindness, Huanli will definitely settle down sister Qingqian."
After saying that, she bowed to Hua Yuejin in a polite manner and led Xu Qingqian away.
Hua Yuejin was obviously taken aback by her rigorous behavior. It was really strange. She had seen Chu Jiaoli several times, and she was always careless and unruly. Why did she seem to be a different person today? It was hard to grasp.
It's really abominable.
She rolled her eyes. No matter what Chu Jiaoli was doing today, she was absolutely stupid for taking away that little vixen. She will be the one to reap the rewards in the future!
Looking at their leaving figures, he slowly raised the corners of his lips.
Side Concubine Hall.
Chu Jiaoli sat at the tea table. Xu Qingqian poured her a cup of tea diligently and said with a sweet smile: "Sister Concubine, drink tea."
Seeing her familiar actions, Chu Jiaoli paused slightly, but did not refuse. She showed a faint smile, took the teacup, and responded softly.
Xu Qingqian sat next to Chu Jiaoli on the tea table and said: "Sister Concubine, did the prince marry a pair of twins? Are you and the princess sisters?"
Chu Jiaoli took a sip of tea gracefully and said: "No, you can tell by the name. Her surname is Chu, and my surname is Zhonggong."
Hearing this, Xu Qingqian rolled her eyes, leaned close to her ear, and whispered: "Qingqian is just saying, the princess is far different from the concubine sister. Although she looks similar, she can tell Qingqian."
I feel that the side concubine sister is much better than the princess. The side concubine sister is kind and dignified. If the sister were not here, the blindfolded princess might have beaten Qing Qian into something like that."
Chu Jiaoli lowered her head and took a sip of tea, raised her eyebrows slightly, and said in a low voice, "Who told you to speak ill of the princess' sister?"
Xu Qingqian was slightly stunned. Just now Hua Yuejin was clearly full of hostility towards Chu Jiaoli. This Chu Jiaoli was not blind. What was wrong with her secretly helping Chu Jiaoli say bad things about Hua Yuejin?
She asked in confusion: "Sister Concubine, don't you hate the princess?"
Chu Jiaoli put the tea cup on the table, glanced at her, and said, "When did I say that I hate the princess?"
"This..." Xu Qingqian choked. She lowered her head nervously and said, "No... no, it was my concubine who guessed it..."
"Then put away your wild speculations and don't try to sow discord between the concubines." Chu Jiaoli said coldly.
Xu Qingqian broke out in a cold sweat. She quickly stood up and bowed, lowered her head and said, "Yes, I don't dare to talk nonsense anymore."
Chu Jiaoli showed a polite smile and said: "From now on, you will live in the west wing. I will send someone to take care of it. This place is not as good as the imperial capital. If there are any unnecessary things missing, I will make do with it."<
/p>
"Yes." Xu Qingqian nodded, then turned her eyes with twinkling eyes and said, "Sister Concubine, I wonder if our prince can still return to the imperial capital?"
Chu Jiaoli raised her hand to pick up the tea cup, opened the tea lid and took a sip. She lowered her head and took a sip, saying slowly: "Since you have entered the door, you must abide by your duties. It shouldn't be your worry, so don't worry about it.
”
Xu Qingqian, who was deflated again, lowered her head in frustration and said, "It's my concubine who has overstepped her bounds."
Chu Jiaoli showed a faint smile and said: "It's okay, I just want to remind you that trouble comes from your mouth, so you should be careful in your words and actions in the future."
Xu Qingqian responded meekly: "Sister Concubine, you have taught me a lesson."
"Okay, let's go down."
"Yes."
When Xu Qingqian walked away, Linglong, who was standing aside, frowned and whispered: "My queen, even the princess can see that this Aunt Xu is not a good person. Aren't you inviting the wolf into the house?"
Chu Jiaoli raised her hand and rubbed her eyebrows, saying: "She is useful to the prince, so it is best to stay."
Linglong seemed to understand, she raised her hand and scratched her head, and said: "But my dear, keeping her may hurt you..."
Hearing this, Chu Jiaoli raised the corners of her lips slightly and said, "Her little tricks are not enough."
Linglong thought for a while and then said with a smile: "Your Majesty is right. Your Majesty looks very smart today. She only moved her lips and teeth, which made the princess so anxious that she could not speak. It's just that this servant is stupid, and my Majesty's behavior
The slaves are becoming more and more confused."
Chu Jiaoli's fingers tapped the table regularly and said: "No problem, just watch slowly."
Linglong nodded and said: "I believe in your Majesty."
Late at night, the candlelight is dim.
Chu Jiaoli didn't know when she fell asleep lying on the desk, still holding the ink-stained brush in her hand.
Bei Gong Tengxiao walked slowly to her side, looked at her sleeping form, and raised his hand to gently push away the broken hair that fell to her face.
His eyes slowly moved from her sleeping face to the table, looking at the letter she had written, with a hint of incomprehensible astonishment in her eyes.
