Rebirth: Remarrying the Emperor's Uncle

Chapter 317 On par with each other (one more)
Han Qingwan watched the two go away coldly, one tall and dignified, the other petite and dignified.

Harmonious and beautiful.

This is the first time to see King Jin and Han Youning get along at close range.

Such a godly figure actually lowered his figure so much for Han Youning, so affectionate.

Even if Han Youning is already in the mire, filthy, he is willing to hold her hand and support her in front of everyone.

Han Qinglian chuckled beside her, "The prince of Jin is very kind to the eldest sister, is the second sister disappointed?"

Han Qinglian sneered, "How do you know what Prince Jin is thinking?"

On the way to the Compassionate Palace, Zhao Chengyuan held her hand all the time, neither light nor heavy, and Han Youning couldn't pull his hand several times.

Han Youning said in a low voice, "My lord, let go, no one is watching now."

Zhao Chengyuan looked ahead, squeezed her weak and boneless little hand, "I hold your hand because I like it, not for others to see."

Han Youning lowered his eyes and smiled.

Zhao Chengyuan said, "I can't stay in the harem for a long time. You don't have to worry about anything when I'm not around. Others have wronged you. You can do whatever you want without worrying about the consequences."

Han Youning shook his head with a smile, "Don't worry, I won't feel wronged."

He was already in a difficult situation, how could she not care about the consequences.

When he didn't know that he was the elder brother of the fairy, he tried every means to design him to come to the capital and drag him into the quagmire.But now, she is looking forward to some way to achieve both, which can not only save the Duke's Mansion and the Marquis' Mansion, but also not make him struggle on the verge of life and death.

Zhao Chengyuan shook her hand, without any further instructions, the two of them walked to the gate of the Palace of Compassion, and an eunuch greeted them warmly, leading them in.

There are already many people sitting in the palace of the Queen Mother, including Wang Guifei, Concubine De, Concubine Xian, Princess Chengjun, Mrs. Zhong Guogong and several wives whom Han Youning didn't know brought their daughters, Wang Caidan, Wang Caifei, Hu Both Mingzhu and Zhao Xianger have arrived.

Until now, Zhao Chengyuan refused to let go of her hand, and led her slowly to the center of the hall.

Everyone's eyes were on the two of them, with a strong sense of scrutiny, hoping to see some signs that King Jin was not happy with Han Youning.

When seeing the two people holding hands tightly, some people were surprised, some were disappointed, and some pouted contemptuously.

Zhao Chengyuan supported Han Youning to kneel down, "My son and the concubine who is about to enter the door are paying my respects to the queen mother."

Han Youning also greeted her, "My daughter Han Youning kowtows to the Queen Mother."

The Queen Mother raised her hand with a smile, "Get up quickly and give me your seat."

A court lady moved a brocade stool and placed it at the position of the empress dowager, above the concubines of several counties.

Zhao Chengyuan and Han Youning sat down, and several concubines and wives in the palace took their daughters and got up to greet Zhao Chengyuan with blessings.

Zhao Chengyuan nodded.

The Queen Mother said softly, "You have never liked to join in the fun, today this place is full of women, why are you here?"

Zhao Chengyuan smiled, "Zhaoping didn't bring a hand stove today because she was afraid of losing her appearance. My son came to ask the queen mother for a hand stove for her."

"You are so considerate. Before anyone even entered the door, you took cover." The queen mother glanced at the maid at the side, and the maid went to the back of the palace.

Zhao Chengyuan glanced at Han Youning with a smile, and said, "She is my son's woman, so my son must take good care of her, and don't let her suffer any grievances."

The Queen Mother caressed Yu Ruyi with deep eyes.

Everyone in the hall also heard the meaning of King Jin's warning. At this time, his protection of Han Youning was the same as before.

They don't understand, now that Han Youning is said to be so miserable, he doesn't mind at all?
The maid brought a cloisonné enamel hand stove, and the Queen Mother said, "To the Lord Zhaoping."

The maid came over, and just as she was about to present it to Han Youning, Zhao Chengyuan reached out to take it.

He looked at the charcoal inside, and looked it up and down again, before handing it to Han Youning, "This hand stove is not big, but it's also exquisite and beautiful, and it's just right for you."

Han Youning took over the stove and thanked him.

The Queen Mother gave Zhao Chengyuan a light look, but she didn't know that he was not at ease, afraid that the hand stove would do something wrong.

She said softly, "This place is full of women. If you are inconvenient here, go to the imperial study to find your brother."

Zhao Chengyuan got up, "Zhaoping will be handed over to the queen mother, and the son will leave."

As soon as Zhao Chengyuan left, the quiet hall became lively.

The married woman said enviously, "Prince Jin is very considerate to the main body of the county."

Concubine Xian covered her mouth and said with a smile, "That's a move from a brothel, how many men can resist it? Isn't the prince here just to die?"

Wang Guifei said coldly, "If the concubine Xian can't speak, then don't say it, what does the prince have to do with her! I suspect that the prince has not woken up because the fourth prince secretly poisoned him!"

Concubine Xian said, "Sister, it's not good to say such poisonous words. Although the emperor punished Mi'er, it was because he didn't want to make progress. I don't need to tell you what the relationship between the crown prince and Zhaoping is. Isn't it all spread?"

She said with a low smile, "If my sister wants to hear more specifics, I can't say it out loud. Why don't you find an eunuch to learn it for you?"

Concubine Wang slapped the table heavily, and said angrily, "How dare you say this in front of King Jin and Duke Ding? Duke Ding's family education is strict, but he can't teach such unbearable children!"

Concubine Xian smiled, "Sister, why did you lose your temper at me? I didn't spread these words."

Han Youning smiled and said, "I went to Qingchun Tower once, and overheard people commenting that not only are there many beautiful concubines in the fourth prince's mansion, but all the male servants are also beautiful."

Concubine Xian's expression changed, "Presumptuous! What nonsense are you talking about!"

Wang Guifei returned her words, "Why did you lose your temper with her, these words did not come from Zhaoping.

Concubine Xian said coldly, "I'm the imperial concubine, how can I be compared with a county lord like her!"

Concubine Wang Gui sneered, "It's really not comparable. She married into Prince Jin's mansion in about ten days from Zhaoping, and the rank of Princess Jin is higher than that of a virtuous concubine like you. Princess Jin wears the Nine Di Crown, and her big shirt , Xiapei, and Yanju’s admiration decorations are the same as the noble concubine and the crown prince. But you, sister, only wear the seven-di crown. In terms of rules, you have to salute when you meet her.”

Concubine Xian's face was embarrassing, especially in front of all the wives and ladies.

She sneered, "It's hard to say whether she will be the princess of Jin or not. Our royal family values ​​a woman's character the most. Her virtues are flawed, and the clan can't tolerate her!"

Concubine Wang took a sip of tea, "The Queen Mother's decree, the emperor's seal, the betrothal gift from Prince Jin, and Princess Fu's matchmaker are not something that my sister can easily erase with a single word."

Concubine Xian looked at the Queen Mother, "Mother, you were deceived by others before you made that imperial decree. Now that rumors are spreading and the world is waiting to see the royal joke, can you tolerate Han Youning ruining the royal majesty by her coming?"

The Queen Mother caressed Yu Ruyi, and said calmly, "Don't quarrel anymore, you are all going to be mothers-in-law, and you are still bickering like children."

She pointed to Wang Caifei, "Fei'er, come and sit with Zhaoping, she is so lonely sitting here alone, and there is no one of her age to accompany her."
