"Foreign guest banquet?" Chu Miao'er suddenly realized it and suddenly turned around and said, "I almost forgot that in less than a month, all countries will come to Kyoto to congratulate you! By then, if the emperor drags this picture
If you show up in a weak body, it will inevitably lead to many suspicions from envoys from other countries. If you think about it this way, it is indeed a thorny issue."
What she was thinking was what the Queen Mother had long thought of, so she hurriedly invited Fu Yunqi to the palace to discuss countermeasures. But could Fu Deyou put aside his grudge and ask Fu Yunqi to temporarily handle state affairs for him? Obviously not.
Fu Yunqi was unmoved, and retorted in a deep voice: "I no longer care about state affairs. From now on, I just want to do my duty well. I trouble Leader Tong to make such a trip, please convey the original words."
"This..." Tong Zhuo frowned slightly and looked at Fu Yunchi and Chu Miao'er with a troubled expression. He didn't know how to answer the question for a moment.
Before leaving the palace, he saw that the people sent by the Queen Mother returned without success. He knew that the fourth prince was not an easy person to talk to, but he did not expect that he would be so decisive and leave no room for negotiation.
Chu Miao'er looked at Tong Zhuo with a half-smile but said in a very firm tone: "Chief Tong came here in a hurry. I'm afraid it was not the emperor's order, but the Queen Mother's order?"
Hearing this, Fu Yunqi was also slightly surprised, Tong Zhuo even more so.
He raised his head in astonishment, knowing that he could not hide it from Chu Miaoer, so he simply admitted bluntly: "Forgive me for risking my life to speak frankly. The emperor was unconscious when he woke up last night. Everything in the court is temporarily suspended."
The Empress Dowager took over. However, the Empress Dowager lived deep in the harem and had never managed the government. She was always somewhat powerless. As time went by, the ministers would also see the clues. I am afraid some people would wait for the opportunity. Now... there is only one option.
Can the Fourth Prince..."
"So what?" Fu Yunchi held the reins with both hands, hugged Chu Miaoer in front of him, and looked at Tong Zhuo indifferently.
Chu Miaoer believed that Fu Yunqi was by no means a ruthless person. He just couldn't forgive himself for being deceived by his closest relatives without knowing it, nor could he forgive himself for living under the protection of his enemies for so many years. But even if he was not the son of the Queen Mother,
The identity of the prince is also an indelible fact for him.
He spared no effort to cultivate Fu Lilian in order to prevent Dajin from being destroyed in the hands of Fu Deyou. How could he be willing to do so?
"Yun Qi," Chu Miao'er gently held his hand and said softly, "I don't want to see you regret today's decision someday in the future."
Just one look made it clear what the other person was thinking. The two looked at each other without saying a word for a long time, but their expressions gradually relaxed. Tong Zhuo lowered his head nervously and swallowed quietly.
Time passed minute by minute, and when Tong Zhuo was about to urge him again, Fu Yunchi suddenly agreed.
"I will send the princess back to the palace first, and then I will follow you into the palace." Fu Yunqi sighed helplessly, "No matter how urgent it is, I will not rush for this moment."
"My subordinates are waiting here for the Fourth Prince." As soon as Tong Zhuo finished speaking, he heard the roar of the horse. When he raised his head, the two of them had already ridden away on horseback, their backs looking absolutely cool.
After Fu Yunqi followed Tong Zhuo into the palace, Chu Miaoer was on pins and needles in the palace. She was just pretending that she wasn't afraid. Everyone wants their husband to be powerful and noble, but she didn't think so. She couldn't face it.
In the future, there will be Fu Yunqi from Sangong and Liuyuan, and I can't imagine whether I will be as generous as Chu Qianqian when facing those concubines.
The gear of fate not only pushed Fu Yunqi to the commanding heights of power, but also pushed her into an abyss beyond her control.
At lunch time, Qin Luoge suddenly asked to see her outside the door. When Baitao heard this, he ran out angrily and quarreled with her.
"Miss Qin, although the people in the mansion call you "girl" respectfully, please don't forget your own responsibilities. Don't push your nose and face, thinking that you are the master of the fourth prince's mansion and can be on an equal footing with the princess." Baitao said.
Zhuji, said it without any scruples.
All her words reached Chu Miaoer's ears in the room, causing her to chuckle.
But Qin Luoge seemed not to care at all, and said in a calm tone: "Luoge knows that he is not as noble as the fourth princess. Luoge did many things wrong in the past. The prince has ordered Luoge to reflect on it.
We haven’t seen each other for a long time. After the fourth prince entered the palace, Luo Ge was afraid that the princess would be bored and have random thoughts, so he thought of coming to have a meal with the princess. Baitao must not be angry. "
"Why should I be angry with you? Why should I be angry with you?" Baitao stamped his feet in anger, but didn't know how to refute.
Qin Luoge looked at her without changing his expression, smiled lightly and said nothing.
"Let Miss Qin come in, and you go make a new pot of tea." Chu Miaoer stood at the door and said to Baitao, who was fuming. Baitao still couldn't change his irritable and impulsive temper, and he didn't know whether he would suffer in the future.
"Thank you, Fourth Princess." Qin Luoge curled his lips, a shrewd look flashed in his eyes.
"Princess..." Bai Tao saw her figure moving slightly, came back to his senses and was about to stop her with his hands, but he watched her slip away from his fingertips, and was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
Chu Miaoer turned around and went back to sit in the room. Seeing Qin Luoge still standing upright in the middle of the room, she said with a smile: "It's not the first time I've come in, so just sit down wherever you want."
This sentence brought back Qin Luo Ge's humiliating memories. She lowered her eyes with a smile, hiding the hatred in her eyes, and said: "Thank you to the Fourth Princess for disregarding her past grudges and allowing Luo Ge to live in the Fourth Prince's house. Otherwise,
Luo Ge no longer has anywhere to go in the city of Kyoto. The fourth princess understands the righteousness so well, which really makes Luo Ge feel ashamed."
Baitao led the maid to serve the dishes, and the dishes on the table were quickly arranged. Finally, she reluctantly placed the bowls and chopsticks prepared for Qin Luoge in front of her.
"No, you are wrong." Chu Miao'er shook her head with a smile and said seriously, "I have never been a person who understands justice, but I hold grudges very much, so Miss Qin had better be honest."
The corners of Qin Luoge's raised mouth twitched slightly, and he continued to say nonchalantly: "In Mobei, every time the prince came back to the house drunk, and when he called the fourth princess's name while clearly looking at me, Luoge was really
Both envious and jealous."
Looking at Qin Luoge drunkenly? Chu Miaoer suddenly remembered now that she seemed to have never heard Fu Yunqi mention his affairs in Mobei, and he never mentioned anything about Qin Luoge. Several times she asked
When he was looking for a husband for Qin Luoge, Fu Yunqi was always in the way.
"I knew you had bad intentions!" Baitao quickly put away the bowls and chopsticks in front of her, and issued an eviction order with righteous indignation, "Miss Qin, please leave immediately!"
Qin Luoge slowly stood up and said in a somewhat self-blaming tone: "The fourth princess must not make random guesses... The prince is afraid that it will cause the fourth princess to misunderstand, so he does not allow Luo Ge to meet the princess, but Luo Ge has been thinking about everything these days.
I thought, since there is nothing between the prince and the prince, why should he hide from the princess? But it was just that a few times when the prince returned to the mansion drunk, he happened to be bumped into by Luo Ge. The man in the mansion was naturally not careful enough, so Luo Ge did this
…”
"If Miss Qin doesn't leave, don't blame me for calling the guards in the mansion!" Baitaoyi said hurriedly with a look on his face.
Anyone else would have inevitably imagined the scene she mentioned, helped the drunken person into the room, and regarded Qin Luoge as her. Then what? What would the two of them do?...... She said
These words were clearly intended to make Chu Miaoer think about it. Even though he knew her intentions, Chu Miaoer still felt unhappy in his heart.
"Some things are not decided by your words." Chu Miao'er looked at her indifferently and asked with a smile, "Do you think the prince has not told me what happened in Mobei?"
Qin Luoge saw her looking straight at him, and the smile on his face froze instantly.
After sending her away, Baitao quickly turned around and returned to the room, saying angrily: "Princess, you must not pay attention to the words she said. They are obviously unfounded things that changed as soon as she said them!"
Look at her, she just can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth, she hasn't learned anything, she just learned some tricks that don't make her stand out."
"Baitao, did Tingfeng tell you anything after he came back? For example, what Qin Luoge said?" Chu Miaoer suddenly asked after pondering for a moment.
Baitao was stunned for a moment when asked, then bit her lip and slowly shook her head, saying incoherently: "Although I don't know what happened to the prince and Miss Qin... No! I mean... Since the prince didn't say what happened in Mobei...
It means nothing happened, I believe in the prince!"
"If I didn't believe him, would I still be sitting here right now?" Chu Miao'er said to herself as she looked at the exquisite food in front of her.
Seeing her disappointed look, Baitao said softly: "The food is cold, please warm it up first."
Seeing her turning around to call the maid in, Chu Miaoer quickly stood up and said, "Get out of here, I have no appetite."
"How can that be done?!" Baitao urged anxiously, "The princess has to take a few bites to deal with it even if she has no appetite. If she hurt her body because of someone else's ulterior motives, I don't know how distressed the prince will be.
I blame my slave for not serving you well!"
Chu Miaoer shook his head and refused, and said softly: "I really can't eat it..." After thinking about it, he said again, "Pack it up, let's go to the Second Prince's Mansion."
If she wanted to find something to do for herself, she might not think so much. Rather than Qin Luoge making such a fuss, she wanted to know what kind of person Fu Yunqi's biological mother was.
After the two of them had packed up, they slowly arrived at the gate of the Second Prince's Mansion in a carriage. The guard at the door saw her getting off the carriage and hurried into the house to report. After a while, Fu Yanshuo came to greet her in person.
Chu Miao'er was a little surprised when she saw him coming out, but she still bowed calmly and said with a smile: "Second brother, don't blame me for coming uninvited."
