She had clearly known for a long time that Xie Jinyan would definitely become the concubine, but when all this was really going to happen, she couldn't help but lose control.
The delicate jade hands hidden under the sleeves couldn't help but clenched the embroidered handkerchief tightly, but she tried hard to suppress her emotions, slowly raised her head, looked at the man tentatively, and asked with a smile, "Then what do you think, Your Highness?"
When asked this question, Yu Qingwu felt extremely uneasy.
She was very afraid, afraid that Xie Jinyan had agreed to ceremonially marry Qiu Shiyiniang as the crown princess, and that Xie Jinyan would collude with the Qiu family in the future.
Don't say it's revenge then...
Once he gets tired of her, maybe...she won't even be able to save her life.
Thinking of this, Yu Qingwu couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. His affectionate peach blossom eyes fixedly looked at the man in front of him, and with a bit of fear, he asked him again, "Your Highness, will you obey the Queen's arrangements?"
"
"I won't..."
"That Qiu Shiyi Niang is nothing more than a fake made with money."
"Besides, she has been Xie Qiyun's for a long time. She will not marry a dirty guy who recommends herself as a bed mat."
Xie Jinyan sneered coldly, his words filled with contempt...
However, his answer made Yu Qingwu stunned again.
What do you mean? Qiu Shiyiniang and Xie Jinyan’s eldest brother Xie Qiyun have already had an affair?
If that's the case, then...why does the queen still want to bring him and Qiu Shiniang together?
Yu Qingwu suddenly felt that her brain was not strong enough, and she deeply suspected that she might have to die in these intricate power struggles before the revenge could be avenged.
Taking a deep breath, Qing Wu looked sideways at Xie Jinyan and said puzzledly, "Your Highness, the Queen's heart is as clear as a mirror. She should be clear about the relationship between Qiu Shiniang and Xie Qiyun, right? In that case, why does she still want to
To bring you and Qiu Shiyiniang together?"
Why?
Xie Jinyan's eyes were filled with a hint of gloom, and he smiled bitterly, "Why? Naturally, he wanted to use Qiu Shiniang's hand to get rid of Ah Yue. Once Ah Yue died, the queen mother would surely expose the relationship between Xie Qiyun and the Qiu family.
relation……"
"That's all, let's not talk about that. Anyway, when you arrive at the palace today, you have to be careful about everything. I will take care of the rest."
Xie Jinyan sighed, and as he spoke, he took Qingwu into his arms again.
His big hands gently rubbed her shoulders, as if seeking some comfort in this way.
Seeing that he didn't want to continue talking, Yu Qingwu didn't ask any more questions. He just looked at the car wall silently, his thoughts gradually drifting away amidst the sound of horse hooves.
I don’t know how much time passed, but the winter sun was in full bloom.
With a dazzling light, the carriage stopped outside Fengzao Palace.
When Xie Jinyan and Yu Qingwu walked in, the main hall was already full of people.
In addition to the sixth princess Xie Ruizhi, there are also many princes and princesses and some children of the prince's family.
Among them, the one with the lowest status is Qiu Shiyi Niang, the legitimate daughter of the Hou family.
However, after Yu Qingwu came, Qiu Shiyi's mother was no longer Fengwei. Seeing Yu Qingwu come in, Qiu Shiyi's eyebrows couldn't help but raise a hint of pride.
He hurriedly stepped forward and saluted Xie Jinyan delicately, "My maid has met His Highness the Crown Prince."
"I have met His Highness the Crown Prince..."
In the room, all the female family members, including the eldest prince and concubine, came to pay homage to Xie Jinyan.
But as if on purpose, he directly ignored Yu Qingwu.
Only the sixth princess, Xie Ruizhi, saw Qing Wu. She walked up to her with a smile, pulled her arm, and called her with a smile, "Sister-in-law, you are so beautiful today."
"You are beautiful today too." Yu Qingwu curled his lips and smiled gently at Xie Ruizhi.
He took out a brocade box from his sleeve and handed it to Xie Ruizhi, "Sixth Princess, this is for you..."
"For me? My sister-in-law also prepared a New Year's gift for me?" Xie Ruizhi's eyes lit up, he took the brocade box excitedly, and then opened it carefully. What came into view was an extremely delicate and compact round wooden box.
The word "Ruizhi" is also engraved on the box, and the surrounding area is decorated with plum blossom carvings. It looks like it was carefully prepared.
Open the box again and you will find lip balm. The texture is very different from the ones bought on the market. Not only is the paste more moisturizing, it also comes in three colors. In the Wei Dynasty, lip balm always only had one color, and it was not easy to apply.
nature.
But the box sent by Yu Qingwu is not only rich in color, but also naturally bright.
Suddenly, all the female family members were attracted, and the other princesses even rushed to get closer.
"Royal sister, this... lipstick actually comes in three colors?" The fourth princess opened her eyes wide and said, reaching out to take it from Xie Ruizhi's hand.
Seeing this, Xie Ruizhi suddenly took it back, glanced at the fourth princess displeased, and said, "This is given to me by the imperial sister-in-law. If the fourth sister wants it, she can buy it herself."
Hearing her words, the fourth princess immediately looked over at Yu Qingwu.
The disdain in his eyes was gone. He came up and took her hand and asked, "Sister-in-law, where did you buy this lipstick? Why do it come in so many colors?"
After hearing her question, the other female relatives also looked at Yu Qingwu, all of them staring intently, including Qiu Shiyi Niang.
Although she deliberately provoked everyone to exclude Yu Qingwu, she was still a girl after all, so she was naturally interested in these things.
Looking at the burning eyes of the girls, Yu Qingwu knew that his first step was successful.
She smiled lightly, waved her hand lightly, and said to the fourth princess in a warm voice, "Fourth sister, I made this lipstick myself and you can't buy it outside."
"Ah! You...did you do it yourself?" The fourth princess was startled, then looked disappointed.
When the rest of the female family members heard that this lipstick could not be bought, they all looked disappointed.
Yu Qingwu smiled, took out a dozen tiny round paper boxes from his sleeve, took one out and handed it to the fourth princess.
"I...I have it too?" The fourth princess's eyes, which were lonely just a moment ago, suddenly shone brightly, and she quickly opened the box. There was also lip balm inside, but it only had one color.
But this already made her very satisfied. After all, such a tone is not common on the market.
Seeing that the fourth princess also had lip balm, the other princesses swarmed over and the last dozen boxes of lip balm of different colors were all wiped out in just a moment.
The seven princesses, two princesses, and several princes and concubines each took one.
Only Qiu Shiyiniang watched eagerly as everyone tried on each other, feeling a little disappointed and extremely jealous.
It was obvious that just now, through her instigation, these princesses and princes had become extremely disgusted with Yu Qingwu, but what happened... In the blink of an eye, they were all bought by a box of rouge.
No! We must not allow Yu to win over people's hearts.
She gritted her teeth and glanced at Yu Qingwu unwillingly, with a flash of resentment in her eyes.
"Yu Liangdi, you...didn't you prepare for me?" Just as everyone was discussing Rouge, a weak and pitiful voice suddenly came from the corner. The tone was as if Yu Qingwu had not prepared her on purpose and was deliberately isolating her.
