When Concubine Yu heard this, a cold look flashed across her eyes, and then she smiled softly and looked at Lu Qingqing: "The Seventh Princess is quite attentive!"
She said this sentence with almost gritted teeth, but Lu Qingqing just pretended that she couldn't hear the implication and just smiled: "I can't help it. Once bitten by a snake, I will be afraid of the rope for ten years! I am also afraid of those who are behind the scenes.
People, you have to know that if the imperial concubine had not been so tolerant five years ago, I would have been in danger of death. Therefore, even if I have the intention to congratulate the empress this time, I cannot act carelessly!
"
Concubine Yu gritted her teeth when she heard this, but could not get angry. Both she and Lu Qingqing knew what happened five years ago, but they didn't tell each other. Lu Qingqing actually used the word "tolerant" to describe her at this time, which was clearly intended to humiliate.
After all, Concubine Yu was not a person who could keep her composure, so her face could not help but look slightly ugly, but she still endured it.
Lu Qingqing saw that she was almost angry, but at this moment, he came closer to her, opened his red lips, and asked quietly: "Jade Concubine, Liu Jun is missing, do you know?"
A shallow sentence passed quickly from his lips.
The maid on the side saw Lu Qingqing lowering her head and said something, but she couldn't hear it clearly at all.
But Lu Qingqing knew that Concubine Yu had completely listened.
Concubine Jade paused for a moment, with a somewhat complicated expression on her face. She just glanced at Lu Qingqing. After thinking for a while, she waved her hand to the palace maid beside her: "Bring the cakes to the side hall for the imperial doctor to examine. I
The palace has something to say to the Seventh Princess!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!" The palace maid was a little surprised. She glanced at Lu Qingqing, but she didn't say anything more and walked out of the hall holding the pastries.
Lu Qingqing also asked the maids who followed him to go out.
Watching all the maids walking out, Concubine Yu finally spoke: "Seventh Princess, I also know about the friendship between you and Liu Lang, but...don't you know that he is hiding in the world?"
"Hidden world?" Lu Qingqing pretended to be surprised, but she began to feel uneasy in her heart.
If Imperial Concubine Jade had not dismissed the palace maid and told her such words, she might have guessed Liu Yiqu's true whereabouts.
But when Concubine Yu said that Liu Yiqu was hiding from the world, she instantly knew that Liu Yiqu had really fallen into Concubine Yu's hands.
First, Liu Yiqu is not someone who would retreat so easily, especially in Concubine Yu's current situation.
Secondly, if Liu Yiqu was really hiding from the world, given the relationship between Concubine Yu and herself, she should not explain it to herself. On the contrary, she would probably conceal it deliberately, which would be in line with her style.
Thirdly, Concubine Yu seemed to be very calm when she said this, but when people lie, they will always reveal some little tricks that they don’t know about. For example, Concubine Yu seems to like it when she is lying or feeling uneasy.
...picked up the tea and sipped it gently to hide his uneasy mood.
Although she guessed it, Qingqing didn't show it. It was better to be still than to move.
"Yes, Liu Lang said that he was tired of being involved in the world, so he planned to hide from the world." Concubine Yu looked at Lu Qingqing and seemed to believe it, and couldn't help but smile lightly.
Lu Qingqing raised her eyebrows, glanced at her with a chuckle, and said as if joking: "Fortunately, she is in seclusion. I thought she was kidnapped or killed?"
As soon as she said this, Concubine Yu's hand shook slightly. Although it was very light, it could not escape Lu Qingqing's eyes.
