"Concubine Chu, what you said is too much! Xiao Jiuer was kind enough to celebrate your birthday, but you scolded her? You are really a wolf-hearted person!" Concubine De said unceremoniously when she faced Concubine Chu.
Open your mouth and curse.
"Wolf-hearted? Concubine De, I am your elder after all, how dare you say that?" Concubine Chu asked angrily.
"Hmph, what I said is all true! Xiao Jiuer personally arranged a carriage to pick you up at the Marquis' Mansion early in the morning. You were so reluctant to come. Now that you are here, you don't even ask why you came in.
Just yelling and swearing, what is this if not a wolf-hearted person?"
Concubine De was not a good-tempered person to begin with, but she became a little gentler just for Xiao Jiuer's sake. Naturally, she responded immediately.
"Concubine De, you don't know."
At this time, the leading eunuch who was responsible for picking up Concubine Chu immediately complained, "I went to pick up Concubine Chu. She was walking smoothly on the road. She insisted on entering the palace to see the emperor. She kept waiting at the gate of the palace and refused.
Come to the Jiang family!"
"Mr. Chu, your birthday banquet is at the Jiang family today, why do you want to go to the palace?" Queen Ning couldn't help but ask, "You did this because you suspected that Xiao Jiu'er would send someone to harm you?
"
"Uh-huh, it's all because Jiujiu doesn't like the concubine, that's why she misunderstood me like this!"
When Yu Jiujiu heard this, she raised her little hand and touched the teardrops sliding down her cheeks. Her little voice sounded extremely aggrieved.
Her words made people feel heartbroken.
"Xiao Jiu'er, this is not your fault, it's because some people mistook your kindness for nothing!"
Even though Queen Ning was such a gentle person, she couldn't help but use such harsh words.
"That's right, although you are young, you are the most sensible. It is obviously your birthday the day after tomorrow, but for the sake of the emperor, you are willing to humiliate yourself and celebrate the birthday on the same day as Concubine Chu. You even want to use this charity banquet to use this opportunity.
This is a way of doing good deeds to congratulate Concubine Chu on her birthday, but it’s a pity that she is not worthy of your thoughts at all!”
Concubine De held Yu Jiujiu in her arms, wiping her tears while saying her best words of comfort.
When Concubine Chu heard this, she felt that she was talking nonsense.
"Don't talk too much here. She is just deliberately playing tricks on me. How can she really want to celebrate my birthday?"
However, her words trailed off.
Chu Liu and Chu Jin quickly grabbed her.
"Sister, you really misunderstood the little princess. She said from the beginning that she wanted to celebrate your birthday today!"
"Yes, sister, if you don't believe it, you can ask the housekeeper of Jiang Mansion. The little princess even asked someone to make a birthday screen for you, and embroidered congratulations on the screen with double-sided embroidery! The reason why she hid it from you is,
It’s to give you a surprise, not to trick you on purpose.”
The two of them tried to persuade each other.
"Is everything you said true?" Concubine Chu still didn't believe it.
"My eldest sister, we are your biological sisters. If the little princess hadn't intended to surprise you and specifically written a letter to us in advance, how could we have lied to you!"
"Sister, if you still don't believe it, just read this letter."
Chu Jin said, showing the letter he brought with him to Concubine Chu.
I saw some tender handwriting on it, which indeed said that I had prepared a surprise for my birthday today and asked her to keep it a secret.
"Uncle Butler, since Mrs. Chu doesn't want to believe Jiujiu, then you can take out the screen that Jiujiu prepared and the birthday gifts!" At this time, Yujiujiu said in a twitchy voice.
"Yes, little princess."
The steward of the Jiang Mansion immediately sent someone to bring out the hidden birthday gifts.
Sure enough, I saw a double-sided embroidered screen.
The screen was embroidered with phoenixes draped in peonies, and a line of small seal characters celebrating birthdays.
In addition, two large boxes of birthday gifts were filled with gold, silver, jewelry and various expensive jewelry. Just looking at them would make people blind.
Unexpectedly, these pearls and jade stones of different colors were pieced together into the characters "Fu Rudonghai" and "Shoubi Nanshan".
This feeling is really touching.
At this time, a gust of cool wind blew, blowing away the fragrance that had been on Princess Chu's body in the carriage.
She regained consciousness and began to doubt herself.
"Could it be that I really misunderstood the little princess?" Concubine Chu murmured to herself.
"Sister, after all, she is the emperor's favorite little princess. You'd better say a few soft words, otherwise this situation will be really difficult to deal with!" At this time, Chu Liu persuaded from the side.
Concubine Chu was a little hesitant.
She has the best face.
With things like this, asking her to say soft words would have been absolutely impossible in the past.
However, there were so many dignitaries today, and each one of them looked at her clearly as a joke.
Concubine Chu knew very well that if it ended like this and she turned around and left, the capital would definitely get a bad reputation from her in the future!
After thinking about this clearly, she couldn't help but take a deep breath.
His face, which originally had a bit of a scowl on it, tried his best to put on a kind smile.
"Little princess, today, I misunderstood the little princess. I know that the little princess is dedicated to me, but I am also impatient for a while. I guess the little princess has a kind heart and will not care about me, right?
"
Concubine Chu's tone softened, completely losing her arrogance just now.
This sounds really like saying good things to Yu Jiu Jiu.
But as Yu Jiujiu listened, he sneered in his heart.
What a concubine Chu.
It was obviously supposed to be a peace talk, but she still insisted on speaking in a superior manner, forcing herself not to care?
However, Yu Jiujiu planned like this today not to forgive Mrs. Chu’s unpleasant insults!
"What Concubine Chu means is that if I insist on arguing with you, I won't be kind-hearted, right?"
Yu Jiujiu wiped the tears from her eyes.
The cute and aggrieved look on her little face disappeared, and she raised her chin instead, glaring coldly at Concubine Chu, "As a princess of the royal family, I just suffered such unbearable insults from you, how could I just
Just a few nice words from you and I won’t argue with you anymore?
"If this is the case, wouldn't it mean that I, the royal princess, don't love myself too much and don't care about my own dignity?
"What's more, someone like you who tramples on other people's thoughts at will is not worthy of my princess congratulating you on your birthday!"
Seeing her inconsistent attitude, Mrs. Chu immediately became angry again.
I think back then, she was the late emperor’s favorite concubine!
A collection of thousands of favors.
It is not an exaggeration to say that the wind will bring the wind and the rain will bring the rain.
But now, Yu Jiu Jiu is just a little princess, how dare you talk to her like this?
Concubine Chu was about to reprimand her again.
However, at this time, a refreshing female voice suddenly sounded from behind her.
"Xiao Jiu'er said it well! How can we, the princess of Daxia Kingdom, allow others to be belittled and insulted at will!"
As soon as the words fell.
I saw a woman about thirty or forty years old, dressed in a dusty appearance, arriving in a hurry and speaking loudly with praise on her face.
Others heard the sound and took a look.
When they recognized who it was, they couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
