Compared with their splendor and wealth, Fang Qing is much more elegant and simple. She has soft and bright black hair, just a simple hair accessory, tied with two sky-blue hair ribbons and an inconspicuous beaded flower.
, decorate the small bun on the left side.
She is dressed in plain clothes, as white as snowflakes, but the crescent white is dotted with elegant purple flowers, diluting the monotony of the color.
Fang Qing felt that this outfit was comfortable and simple, but in their eyes, she was quite surprised. Their eyes all showed surprise, and they stared intently at her indifferent and cold face.
But she ignored those concerned glances. She nodded slightly towards Chunxiang behind her, and the wheelchair slowly and steadily stopped in front of Prince Chun.
"Qing'er, I'd like to pay my respects to my parents. Please forgive my daughter-in-law for her inconvenience in her legs. I hope you'll forgive me for not being able to give a big gift to my two elders." She looked indifferent but polite.
As soon as her voice fell, the expressions on the faces of everyone in the main hall were startled again.
Prince Chun and his wife were simply stunned, not knowing how to react.
"Qing'er pays homage to my parents. Please forgive my daughter-in-law for her inconvenience on her legs. I hope you'll forgive her for not being able to give her a big gift." Fang Qing's face remained calm as she repeated it.
When Prince Chun and his wife saw this, they quickly came to their senses and held up their hands, telling Fang Qing that there was no need to be polite.
"No, no, you just sit down."
"Thank you very much, parents." Fang Qing thanked her lightly. She raised her eyes and asked lightly: "Today the guards came to Lanxinju to visit Qing'er. I wonder what matters my parents want to see Qing'er?"
Prince Chun and his wife looked at each other, and then Princess Chun spoke gently. "It's like this. Today's war in the south is a great victory. His Majesty is very happy. He specially invites hundreds of officials and their families to come to the palace to enjoy the feast. I don't know——"
"What do you mean, mother, let Qing'er also enter the palace together?" Fang Qing asked calmly.
"Exactly." Princess Chun smiled and nodded.
"But Qing'er's legs and feet are inconvenient. Even if your parents intend to invite Qing'er to go with you, I'm afraid Qing'er's legs will bring inconvenience to your trip." Fang Qing's tone was calm and clear, without any sarcasm.
There was no feeling of inferiority, she just told a fact plainly.
Prince Chun and his wife in the hall looked slightly horrified. Is this still the wild and rude daughter-in-law from before? They looked at each other, and where their eyes collided, there was a look of confusion, and their eyes were filled with mist.
Fang Qing saw that they had not spoken for a long time, so she did not speak either. She just looked at them quietly and waited patiently for them to speak. Perhaps the atmosphere in the main hall was too silent, so Prince Chun, as the elder, had no choice but to speak.
"If Qing'er finds it inconvenient, then -" He was about to say that he didn't need to go, but Yu Tianqi interrupted.
"If you have difficulty moving, just take your chair with you. Don't worry when you get on the carriage, I will help you." He looked a little awkward.
Well--
Fang Qing was surprised.
Prince Chun and his wife were also stunned.
Lu Yijing on the side obviously didn't expect this, and the surprise in her eyes was self-evident.
"Brother Qi, since my sister has difficulty moving, I think it's better not to overwork her and just stay in the palace to rest." She said in a low and considerate voice.
"Today's celebration banquet, the emperor has made it clear that he will invite his family members to go with him. Luan Yuqing is still the king's concubine. What will happen if she doesn't go?" His eyes flickered and his words were not smooth.
After hearing this, Prince Chun and his wife showed comforting smiles on their faces. "Okay, since Qi'er said so, Qing'er don't refuse and let's go together."
"Yes." Fang Qing nodded lightly. She had already planned to go there, but now Yu Tianqi's words saved her a lot of energy.
Chunxiang was secretly happy to see that the prince's attitude towards the third lady had changed, and everyone else was also happy to see it. Only Lu Yijing, her fingernails hidden under her wide sleeves were rubbing into her palms.
