1447. Chapter 1447 Jealousy and framing of Xiao Xian 【01】
But after waiting for a quarter of an hour, the emperor did not come, so the queen sent a maid to see if there was any order from her majesty.
The little palace maid came back soon. Although she was very calm, Shen Mingzhu still saw panic on her face.
Did something happen?
Shen Mingzhu remained calm and glanced at Xiao Xian while Li Huifei was talking to her.
Xiao Xian looked at her calmly, indicating that she didn't need to be nervous.
Sure enough, the Queen said that Her Majesty had something to deal with temporarily and asked them to enjoy the dance first.
At the command, a group of dancing girls entered the pavilion opposite, and a piano player sat down to accompany them.
So everyone started to enjoy the dance.
However, Shen Mingzhu's thoughts were flying far away. From the expression on her face when she was reporting to the queen from the palace maid, she could tell that the emperor was angry now, and the content of his anger was probably related to her and Xiao Xian.
What is going on?
Li Huifei glanced at her and then gave the palace maid Dou Niang behind her a wink. Dou Niang understood and took the opportunity to go back to get Li Huifei's things.
Soon, Lady Dou came back, holding a black mother-of-pearl box in her hand, and placed it in front of Concubine Li Hui.
When she put it down, she whispered back: "Empress, Your Majesty is reprimanding His Highness."
Shen Mingzhu's heart moved and she glanced at Li Huifei, but Li Huifei didn't look away and still put a crystal grape into her mouth.
It was brought up by Lingxu Temple as a tribute. It originally had to wait for Qiu Hou, but because Shen Mingzhu taught Ling Xuzi his method, it was now available in his Taoist temple.
Madam Dou did not turn her eyes and continued: "I heard that it is because His Highness does not trust King Yan."
Shen Mingzhu lowered her eyelashes. She had deep inner strength and could naturally hear clearly, but she pretended not to hear.
And she even had some doubts, did Li Huifei do it specifically for her to hear?
Otherwise, you can just find an excuse to leave the meeting and report, and there is no need to be next to her.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look at Concubine Li Hui.
Li Huifei smiled slightly and did not look at her. At this time, Dou Niang had finished her report and quietly retreated to the back.
It was as if nothing had been said, and Li Huifei also smiled slightly, as if she was just saying that the weather was nice and the grapes were delicious.
She felt that Shen Mingzhu looked at her and smiled, then turned to Shen Mingzhu and said: "This grape is really sweet, much better than before. I heard that the princess gave Ling Xuzi some advice, so it was so sweet and delicious.
It’s really not easy for Ling Xuzi, who is arrogant and lonely, to congratulate and give hairpins to the princess. I think he likes you very much."
Shen Mingzhu couldn't figure out what Li Huifei meant, whether she was an enemy or a friend. After hearing what she said, she just chatted for a few words.
When Concubine Li Hui went to enjoy the dance again, Shen Mingzhu thought about it carefully. Concubine Li Hui was not the most beautiful in the palace, but her temperament was elegant and noble, and her movements made people want to get close to her.
She had no biological children of her own, but she adopted the son of the late Lin Guiren and the daughter of Concubine Xin. The two children were not very favored, but Concubine Li Hui was very kind to them and taught them well.
And because they were young and had mediocre qualifications, they had no chance of competing for the crown prince, so they were safe and sound.
