The Evil Mistress's Killing Crazy Daily

"The Queen..."

Carefully she helped Hua Yuerong into the inner room and helped her sit on the couch. Xiangwei took the teacup handed to her by Xiangmo and gently placed it next to Hua Yuerong's hand.

Glancing at Hua Yuerong's slightly tired face, Xiang Wei asked in a low voice, somewhat puzzled, "Empress, you have been busy for so long for the Empress Dowager's birthday.

Now that everything has finally been done, why did you order Concubine Yi to take over the affairs of the Empress Dowager's birthday?

Isn't this just giving others something to wear?"

"besides……"

Xiangwei said, raising her hand to let the others go down.

As she walked forward and skillfully rubbed Hua Yuerong's shoulders, she lowered her voice and continued to ask indignantly: "Your Majesty, Concubine Duan was so disrespectful to you, are you really going to let the Queen Mother announce the marriage at the birthday banquet? This is too much of a face-saving thing for them..."

"Do you think I am willing?"

Thinking back to what happened in the outer hall just now, Hua Yuerong sneered and sighed, "You saw what happened just now. I haven't said anything yet, but Concubine Duan dared to bring up the father-in-law. If I say a few more words, who knows how anxious she will be."

"She's in a hurry, but she's a remnant of the previous dynasty who has no father, no mother, no country, and no home. Even if she's in a hurry, what can she do to you?"

"Oh, you don't understand."

Hua Yuerong became more and more tired.

If this matter is really as simple as Xiangwei said, then it would be fine.

But it is not.

It just so happened that Concubine Duan was the marriage that the late emperor had arranged for Jun Yiguang since he was a child.

The two were engaged since childhood, and they had a childhood sweetheart relationship. In addition, Jun Yiguang failed to make her his principal wife, and he felt even more guilty towards her.

A layer of affection plus a layer of guilt, plus that incident...ha, although Jun Yi Guang didn't say it, he cherished her very much in his heart.

"Ugh……"

Thinking of this, Hua Yuerong felt more and more headache.

Sitting by the couch, she raised her hand and gently rubbed her forehead. She sighed helplessly, "Alas, last time I tried to seek justice for the traitor, I already displeased the emperor. A few days ago, because of the matter of Marshal Xu, the prince was again confined by the emperor.

In this situation, how can I rush forward to provoke him?

I might as well step back and let them fight in the front, and I will just plan in the back..."

"Yes, madam, you are right."

Xiang Wei nodded in agreement, and hurried to the incense burner, lighting the agarwood for Hua Yuerong to calm her mind...

At the same time, outside Kunning Palace.

After the concubines of each palace said goodbye to each other, Concubine Duan smiled and looked at Ruan Yunqi, "Sister Concubine Yi, since the Queen Mother has handed the whole matter over to you, why don't you come with me to Ruiqian Palace? Let's sit together and discuss it?"

"Sister Duan Guifei is joking."

After the turmoil just now, Ruan Yunqi knew that the Queen Mother did not approve of this marriage, and she had no relationship with Concubine Duan, so naturally she was unwilling to get involved.

Fearing that something might go wrong, she thought for a moment and suggested, "Sister Concubine Duan, no one would care more about the Second Prince's marriage than you do, so why do you need to discuss this with me?

How about this, you set a date, make a plan, and then just tell me directly when the time comes.

Time is urgent. Let me prepare the birthday gift for the Queen Mother first. Then we can combine them and report to the Queen Mother together. What do you think?"

"Well, thank you for your hard work, sister."

"It's not hard."

After smiling and nodding to bid farewell to Concubine Duan, Ruan Yunqi turned around.

She nodded to Concubine Xi, who was standing not far away and looked a little worried. She finally breathed a sigh of relief and quickly returned to Ruyi Palace in her sedan chair...

In Ruyi's palace.

Holding the snow rabbit, Jun Yizhen reached out to help Ruan Yunqi get off the sedan chair. He couldn't help but be curious, "Why did you come back now?"

"nothing."

Reaching out to grab the rabbit in Jun Yizhen's arms, Ruan Yunqi walked into the hall holding it, and glanced at Jun Yizhen with disdain while smiling, "Why did you come here suddenly? When did you come?"

"It's been a while..."

Seeing that Ruan Yunqi seemed to be in a bad mood, Jun Yizheng frowned.

After entering the house, he took the teapot from A Yue's hand with a smile and waved his hand to signal everyone to go out.

Then, after personally pouring a cup of tea for Ruan Yunqi, he took out the mother-of-pearl flower and bird jewelry box he had prepared as if presenting a treasure.

Handing the jewelry box to Ruan Yunqi, he smiled and raised his chin, "How about it, isn't this box beautiful? I specially sent someone to transport it from the South China Sea..."

"whispering sound."

With a smile, Ruan Yunqi took the box.

She touched the mother-of-pearl flower and bird pattern on the box with her fingers, curled her lips, and looked at Jun Yizheng with a smile and a hint of ridicule, "You specially brought back such a small box from the South China Sea?"

"By the way, we also brought a screen to celebrate the birthday of the Empress Dowager."

"Humph, I knew it. If it wasn't for this, you wouldn't have remembered me..."

Smiling and making a few insults to Jun Yizheng, Ruan Yunqi hugged the rabbit and touched her box with her fingers again.

As if she remembered something, she suddenly raised her head and looked at Jun Yizheng, "By the way, don't forget to give one to your aunt, too, for such a beautiful thing. She played a great role in the matter of Marshal Xu before..."

"Do you even need to say that?"

Jun Yizheng smiled helplessly.

Sitting down and pouring himself a cup of tea, he held the cup and sipped the tea while telling Ruan Yunqi, "This time from the South China Sea, I brought a total of three things, a screen, chessboard, and jewelry box.

The screen is for the imperial grandmother as a birthday gift, and the chessboard and jewelry box will be given to you and my aunt each.

My aunt's share has already been delivered."

"That's pretty much it."

Ruan Yunqi nodded with satisfaction.

Handing the rabbit to Jun Yizheng, she picked up the jewelry box, turned around and went to the dressing table in the inner room.

She picked up a few pieces of jewelry from the dressing table, opened the jewelry box and was about to put them in...but she found another box inside the jewelry box...

"what is this?"

Opening the small box inside the jewelry box with some curiosity, Ruan Yunqi looked at the white and delicate ivory bracelet inside the small box, with surprise and delight in her eyes.

"How about it."

Holding the rabbit, Jun Yizhen leaned against the door and glanced at his mother. He suppressed his smile and asked deliberately, "How is it? Does this bracelet look good?"

"Did you buy it?"

Sitting in front of the dressing table, Ruan Yunqi felt that Jun Yizheng's tone was wrong.

She looked at the bracelet in her hand with some caution, and seeing nothing strange, she looked up at Jun Yizheng who was leaning against the door, and finally put on the bracelet in confusion.

She took the wrist with the bracelet away, raised her chin, and looked critically at Jun Yizheng who was leaning against the door holding a rabbit and trying to hold back his laughter, and then looked critically at the ivory bracelet on her wrist.

Finally, she groaned in disdain, looking unsatisfied, and deliberately raised her voice and said, "Tsk, the things are good, but the buyer doesn't seem to have good taste, the style he chose is too ugly..."
