Chapter 145: The Fierce Villain's Favorite (39)
Chapter 145 The Irritated Villain’s Beloved (39)
Author: Shu Yuhua
I suffered a lot from kindness in my previous life.
In the same position, Liu Ruer fell twice more.
"Yes, it's right here. Turn the flower over so I can't see it... Did you eat the big fish? It's so small, can the guests see it?"
The maid kept claiming it was true and bought a few new big fish and put them in the pond.
If you only invite one person to the banquet, is there any need to mobilize such a large number of people?
The servant was puzzled, and Liu Yuanqing was even more puzzled.
He couldn't fathom his daughter's thoughts. I don't know since when, Liu Yuanqing became increasingly unable to understand his daughter.
Looking at her is like looking into a deep black pool. If you don't go down and take a look, you will never know what's inside. If you go down, you may be disappointed, or you may lose your life.
Liu Yuanqing never asked why. He would give his daughter whatever she wanted and do as she said.
Nowadays, every family in the Liu family has someone who is an official. Liu Yuanqing's status in the Liu family is rising day by day, and the patriarch is almost giving up his title to Liu Yuanqing.
Liu Yuanqing worked hard for the imperial court for more than thirty years.
Now, everything is according to the plan of the father and daughter, and Liu Yuanqing is very happy.
Getting this beloved daughter is the best gift God has given him, which is better than tens of millions of gold.
"father."
Realizing that she had lost her composure just now, Liu Ruer slowly stepped forward and saluted Liu Yuanqing, with a sweet smile on her face.
"My son has grown up, and it's time to start our plan. Your Majesty is very happy. Your stomach has been quiet, why not..."
"Dad, my daughter understands what you mean." Liu Ruer pursed her lips and dug her nails into the palms of her hands. The pain reminded Liu Ruer not to lose her composure, "After all, she is not her biological son. She can lead the emperor to command the princes. My daughter cannot do that."
To support an unpredictable person, why not take the position yourself?
It was she, Liu Ruer, who planned the country, why couldn't she make the decision?
Liu Ruer always thought that her father supported her.
When she was six years old, she spoke arrogantly, but her father did not regard her as a madman, but accepted her suggestion.
Liu Ru'er thought that her father was enlightened, but unexpectedly, he was still the same old-fashioned and wanted to support the new king to ascend to power.
The one who sits on the throne must be a man? Why not a woman?
In terms of talent and appearance, in what way is Liu Ruer inferior to others?
Liu Ru'er couldn't figure out who else was worthy of sitting on the supreme position besides her?
The emperor has few heirs, and the princes and daughters are all underage. Who among them can trust the people and make all officials, civil and military, submit?
No, none.
Are you going to make Huangkou Xiao'er the king and let her listen to politics behind the curtain? No, Liu Ru'er would never do such a ridiculous thing.
Secretly burying the blame for her father, Liu Ruer was thinking about the candidate.
Perhaps, what my father was thinking of was not someone from the royal family.
Is it possible that he wants to make his brother emperor?
The thought of exploding like thunder and fire made Liu Ruer tremble and her mind was in chaos.
How could she not have thought that the most important thing the Liu family lacks is talented people.
The elder brother counts as one, and the younger brother counts as one.
Compared with his younger brother, because of his talent, his elder brother only had the position of temple minister in Dali Temple, which was too embarrassing.
If her father meant this, she should take action to remove the obstacles...
"Ru'er? My father has called you many times. Is it because you didn't get a good rest last night?" Liu Yuanqing looked concerned.
In Liu Ruer's eyes, his concern was all hypocrisy.
He was pretending to be planning a future for his son, and he was not part of his plan.
Taking advantage of the situation, Liu Ru'er rubbed her temples and pretended to be calm with half-squinted eyes, "Dad, it's not my daughter's fault to receive guests in such a tired state."
"It doesn't matter, you and the general's wife are old acquaintances, she will definitely not care about it." Liu Yuanqing was very sure.
Her father's attitude and tone made Liu Ru'er more certain that she was just an outsider, making wedding clothes for others.
He ordered his maid to help him go back to his room to rest. Along the way, Liu Ruer came up with countless plans.
When the time came, the maid opened the door nervously, tiptoed to the bed, fanned herself with a fan, but did not dare to make a sound to wake up Liu Ru'er.
"Empress? It's time to get up. The carriage from the General's Palace has already set off and is heading towards our Shangshu Palace."
After stopping the fan, the maid helped Liu Ruer get up, while another person helped Liu Ruer change clothes.
The two of them cooperated with each other to insert hairpins all over Liu Ruer's head.
The wealth and honor from the sky are all on his head, and the golden light makes people unable to take their eyes away.
The maid helped Liu Ruer to the back garden.
Today we are hosting a banquet for Bai Qingzhi.
There are high walls, ponds, or pavilions on all sides.
Wanting to climb over the wall and dream, Liu Ru'er blocked all the roads and posted people to guard the back door.
There was one person and one horse who left the General's Mansion together.
After the spies left, Wei Changyuan tightened the reins and galloped towards the Zhenguo Duke's mansion.
"Hey, I haven't seen my sister for the past few days, and she looks even more charming."
The beauty is delicate and charming, her every frown and smile are intoxicating, but in Bai Qingzhi's eyes, it's all just a show.
It's a pity that she was born in the wrong era. Liu Ru'er should have become an actor instead of wasting such good acting skills.
"See the noble concubine, may the empress be blessed and safe."
Bai Qingzhi was serious about bowing and paying homage, making every step impossible to find fault with.
Liu Ru'er smiled softly and held Bai Qingzhi's hands affectionately, pulling her to sit with him.
Bai Qingzhi suddenly stuttered, "Mother, I can't do it."
Bai Qingzhi did not dare to sit with Liu Ru'er without her official mandate.
Forget about others, she is Liu Ruer.
What are the chances of being poisoned at close range? Bai Qingzhi didn't dare to gamble with her own life.
Every dish in today's banquet may be poisonous or not.
Which dish would Liu Ru'er put the poison on? Bai Qingzhi couldn't tell, nor could she guess.
Masters compete with each other, the actual operation is simple, it depends on whether you let fate favor you and save your life.
The maid began to serve the food.
After a glass of fine wine, Bai Qingzhi raised her head and drank the glass, imitating Liu Ru'er's example of raising the glass, holding the glass at an angle and placing it on the table.
Seeing that the bottom of the cup was empty, Liu Ruer smiled knowingly.
"Sister, how are you getting along with General Wei? I heard that General Wei has a bad temper. If my sister can't stand it, she must tell His Majesty and don't wrong herself."
Bad temper? Bai Qingzhi smiled secretly.
Only after I got married did I realize that she seemed to be the one with the bad temper.
Most of those who made Wei Changyuan angry were a few of his blind subordinates.
To be more precise, he should be careless, speak his words directly, and not know how to express them euphemistically. Or he couldn't understand Wei Changyuan's code words, which made him even more irritable.
Kneeling on the washboard every now and then, Bai Qingzhi felt that he had restrained his temper in front of her and was completely different from the outside world.
Thinking of the past experiences of the original owner, one cannot tell what is true and what is false. Rumors are just rumors after all. Only by personal experience can one know what is true and what is false.
One person asks and another person answers.
Bai Qingzhi can pick up the vegetables that Liu Ru'er has picked up.
[Host, please feel free to eat, the food is not poisonous, Liu Ruer may set traps elsewhere, be careful]
"Has Wei Changyuan entered the palace?"
[We have arrived at the entrance of the imperial study. Eunuch Ye is a good talker. Concubine Liu Shu’s personal maid leads the way, making the journey smooth.]
Bai Qingzhi put down her guard and raised her glass to Liu Ru'er.
They are in the same boat as Concubine Liu Shu, and it is a good thing for Bai Qingzhi that she is willing to help.
