405. Chapter 405 Why did the prime minister ask you to visit the queen?
He had never seen this woman before, but just by looking at her dress, he knew she was not a maid from this palace.
Seeing her appear outside the Leng Palace at night, he thought of Shangguan Yu, his eyes suddenly turned cold, and he also showed an obvious defensive look towards the woman in front of him.
"Who are you and what are you doing here?"
Nangong Shuo's voice was as cold as a sharp sword frozen in the ice and snow, which frightened the woman in front of him into looking panicked.
She looked at the cold-as-frost man in front of her. Likewise, this face was unfamiliar to her.
But even though he was a stranger, the innate and intimidating aura he exuded made the woman in front of her understand that he was no ordinary man.
Looking at the bright yellow dragon robe he was wearing, which showed his power and identity, she naturally knew very well who the man in front of her who came out of the cold palace was.
Immediately, she knelt down in panic and said, "My concubine Qiao Qian, please see the Emperor."
She did not expect that during the day, at the invitation of the prime minister, she would come to visit the queen, and as soon as she arrived, she would meet the current emperor, the man who was already nominally her husband.
Qiao Qian?
This name, which he was not very familiar with, made the chill in Nangong Shuo's eyes not lessen.
But although I am not familiar with it, it is not that I have never heard of it.
Nangong Shuo looked at Qiao Qian in silence for a moment, and then slowly remembered something.
Isn't the woman in front of him one of the three women chosen by the princess for him?
If he remembered correctly, this Qiao Qian was the daughter of Qiao Xi, the Minister of Civil Affairs.
"What are you doing here at night?"
Nangong Shuo's voice was still so terrifyingly cold that Qiao Qian, who was kneeling in front of him, did not dare to raise her eyes.
"To be honest, Your Majesty, I am here to visit the Queen at the invitation of the Prime Minister."
She subjectively believed that Gu Zixu's request to her during the day was actually given by the emperor. The emperor could not let go of the queen, and it was not convenient to visit her in person during this critical period, so he asked her to come and see her.
Precisely because of this idea, she did not hide anything from Gu Zixu's request.
After all, she could see that the emperor's feelings for the queen were not what everyone saw on the surface.
The two women in the harem who tried their best to compete for the position of queen never thought that the emperor reserved this position for the queen.
But she didn't know that Nangong Shuo didn't know about Gu Zixu's request. When he heard her answer, Nangong Shuo couldn't help but feel bad.
If others don't know, doesn't he know that his good brother also likes his Xiaoyu?
He had always been aware of Gu Zixu's feelings for Shangguan Yu, but always deliberately ignored it, perhaps because he was a little jealous of Gu Zixu.
Although he was the emperor, he did not have the absolute freedom to love the woman he loved, but Gu Zixu did.
He had a sullen face and remained silent for a while, but Qiao Qian, who was kneeling in front of him, felt a little uneasy. She couldn't figure out the temper of the man in front of her, and she didn't know what he was going to do.
After a while, Nangong Shuo turned his attention to Qiao Qian in front of him again, and his eyes slightly deepened as if he suddenly thought of something.
"Why did the Prime Minister ask you to visit the Queen?"
He knew that Gu Zixu was not a person who acted recklessly. The Qiao Qian in front of him was a talented person who had just entered the palace and could be regarded as Xiao Yu's enemy. He was so relieved to let a woman he didn't understand at all approach Xiao Yu, just in case she wanted to attack Xiao Yu.
What should I do if Xiao Yu is in trouble? He has never seen this woman before, but just by looking at her dress, he knows that she is not a maid in this palace.
Seeing her appear outside the Leng Palace at night, he thought of Shangguan Yu, his eyes suddenly turned cold, and he also showed an obvious defensive look towards the woman in front of him.
