She finally plucked up the courage to say that, not only did she fail to change Chen Rui's mind, but instead angered him...
He did not treat himself badly, but what she wanted was not only the title of the eldest lady, but also the gentleness he always treated her!
Could it be that she asked for too much?!
Liu Yiyi smiled bitterly and knelt on the ground without getting up. Her personal maid came in quietly at some point and put on a cloak for her to avoid catching a cold!
"Madam, why did you fight with the master?" asked the maid with concern. She wanted to help her wife get up, but she was worried that the master would find out and punish her.
Liu Yiyi remained silent, and there was a cloud of sorrow between her eyebrows.
"The master has always liked the gentle lady, but this time he annoyed the master..." The maid shook her head and sighed. Seeing that her wife was unmoved, she advised: "Madam, let's go and compensate the master tomorrow, right? Let’s get back with the master as soon as possible!”
Liu Yiyi ignored the maid's persuasion, closed her eyes and said lightly: "It's useless, in my heart, I will never be as good as her!"
"Who is she the lady said?" the maid asked curiously.
"She is the most noble woman in the world!" After Liu Yiyi said that, before the maid could react, she suddenly laughed: "Yes, her status is so noble, how can I compare to it?"
"Madam, Madam..." The maid pushed her shoulder worriedly, and her mind was still thinking about what Liu Yiyi said just now.
The lady said that the woman in the master’s heart is the most noble woman in the world and the most noble woman... Could it be the current queen?!
The maid stared in surprise and covered her mouth, her heart pounding, as if she had discovered some huge secret, and she didn't dare to ask any more questions.
Such words are better kept in my heart!
**********
After the morning court the next day, Xiao Jingyao summoned several ministers to discuss politics. Compared with Xiao Jingyao, who was full of spring breeze, Chen Rui seemed frowning.
"Aiqing Chen, what do you think of this?" Xiao Jingyao asked. Chen Rui came to his senses and quickly replied: "I am guilty of my crime, I hope the emperor will forgive me!"
Xiao Jingyao had long seen something in his mind, waved his hand and smiled, "Forget it, seeing that you have a bad face, isn't you feeling unwell?"
"Thank you for your concern, I just didn't have a good rest, it's not a big deal..."
Chen Rui replied respectfully, while looking carefully at Xiao Jingyao's expression.
It seems that the emperor did not seem to have troubled his heart with what happened yesterday. Instead, he, an irrelevant person, was worried about that matter!
After the other ministers left the Political Consultative Hall, Xiao Jingyao said to Chen Rui again: "Aiqing Chen, do you have something to say to me alone?"
Chen Rui didn't expect that Xiao Jingyao could see the doubts in his heart at first sight. He hesitated for a moment and slowly spoke: "I shouldn't have interfered in the palace matter, but if the emperor really plans to accept a concubine..."
Before Chen Rui could finish his words, Xiao Jingyao interrupted him with a loud laugh: "So you are worried about this matter! When I ascended the throne, I had already said that if I don't place concubines, how could I be untrustful?!"
Chen Rui finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this: "Although I also hope that the emperor will have many children, the queen is a person with temperament..."
"Of course I understand her!" Xiao Jingyao walked off the dragon chaise, patted Chen Rui's shoulder, and said slowly and solemnly: "My heart for her will never change, Chen Aiqing doesn't have to worry too much!"
