Spring Drunk Chang'an

Why?

Why! ! !

That lowly servant Liu Changan, it was impossible for her to be the future queen. No way, she wouldn't accept it!!

Liu Qingru's eyes were wide open, the corners of her eyes were dyed red with hatred, she was gasping for breath, her face was distorted and hideous.

It was as if he wanted to pick up a knife and kill someone.

That terrifying look actually frightened Concubine Qu Guifei. She suddenly covered her lips with her hands and said sternly, "Liu Qingru, who are you trying to scare by acting like this?"

"Quickly, change your expression. How can you, a girl, be so narrow-minded?"

"You are jealous of Liu Changan, right? I tell you, jealousy is useless. His Majesty has already issued an imperial decree, and the marriage is only granted after the selection."

"If you still want to succeed with Xun'er, then behave yourself. I don't ask you to be friends with Liu Chang'an, but you are not allowed to provoke her again. Do you understand?"

Concubine Qu slammed the chair and asked loudly.

Liu Qingru was startled and trembling all over. When she came to her senses, an unwilling expression appeared on her face, but she glanced at Concubine Qu.

His face was serious, his tone was harsh and his voice was urgent.

"Your Majesty's will..."

She didn't dare to refute and responded in a low voice.

"Okay, now that you understand, just kneel down and pay your respects." Concubine Qu was upset and too lazy to say anything more to her. She just waved her hand and gave another warning.

"If you cause trouble again, no matter whose fault it is, I'll find trouble with you."

"Don't even think about entering Xun'er's backyard again."

"get out."

She spoke disrespectfully.

Liu Qingru clenched her fists, feeling angry and frightened. She didn't dare to say anything more. She could only kneel down, kowtow, and leave.

When she walked out of the hall, a palace maid was already waiting there. She said with a stern face, "Miss, please let this maid take you back..."

When Concubine Qu scolded her, she did not stop, and everyone inside and outside the palace could hear it clearly.

Liu Qingru's face turned red with shame. She lowered her head and didn't dare to look at the palace maid's expression. She felt hatred and annoyance in her heart, but she nodded reluctantly.

The palace maid turned around and led the way.

Liu Qingru followed behind with her body tense. The two of them walked out of the palace and headed towards Chuxiu Palace. Just as they turned out of the palace, they saw a group of people running towards Concubine Qu's palace from afar.

"Is that, His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan?" Liu Qingru was stunned and almost instinctively wanted to follow and stop him.

She hasn't seen King Yan for a long time.

The last time Qu Qiutong brought her to see him, His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan was very gentle and considerate to her, holding her hand and calling her "Ru'er", his eyes full of affection...

His Highness must like her very much. If he knows that she has been wronged, he will definitely stand up for her.

Liu Qingru wanted to chase after him.

Seeing this, the palace maid quickly stepped forward, stopped her, and said, "Miss, it's getting late. With your status, it's inconvenient for you to stay outside. Go back quickly."

"I, I..." Liu Qingru was anxious and wanted to push her away.

You dog slave, she is the future concubine of Prince Yan, how dare a mere palace maid stop her!

"Get out of the way quickly."

she shouted sharply.

The palace maid frowned, her expression extremely respectful, but without the slightest hint of fear. She stopped her squarely, not retreating a single step. "Miss Liu, please follow me..."

Showgirl!

You are a showgirl!!

In public, in the palace, a concubine ran towards the prince and tried to stop him?

What do you want to do?

If you want to die, don't drag me...

The palace maid looked serious.

Liu Qingru shuddered, but the maid's gaze calmed her down. She took a deep breath, bit her lip, and forced herself to turn around. "Okay, I understand. Let's go."

After saying that, she forced herself to move.

The maid stared at her cautiously, her eyes never moving, almost like she was monitoring her, and took her away.

-

In front of the palace gate, Xiao Xun paused, turned around and looked at the figure that was almost disappearing. He raised his eyebrows slightly, smiled playfully, but said nothing.

After pausing for two moments, he went back into the palace.

He was the only son of Concubine Qu. When he saw his mother, he didn't even need the palace maid to report to him. He stepped over the threshold and strode into the hall.

At that time, Concubine Qu was still sitting on the chair, supporting her face with her hands, with a gloomy expression.

"What's wrong with mother? Are you in a bad mood?"

Xiao Xun asked aloud.

Concubine Qu was startled and realized that her son had arrived.

The treatment her biological son and Liu Qingru received must have been completely different. She stood up, walked a few steps to her son, and raised her hand to pat the dust off his shoulders.

She asked with concern, "Why did you come to the palace? Did you go to see your father?"

"It was my father who summoned me to the palace. I just went outside Qiankun Palace, and Chief Steward Li said that my father was discussing matters with the Prime Minister and would be free in an hour, so I came to see you."

Xiao Xun was not polite at all. He sat down on the chair, grabbed some snacks, and asked while eating, "Mother hasn't told me yet. What's wrong? You look unhappy..."

"It's nothing. I just met someone and was a little disappointed." Concubine Qu sighed and answered casually. She called the palace servants and ordered them repeatedly, "Go pour a cup of tea for the prince. Use the Rain-Previous Longjing tea from my warehouse..."

The palace maid accepted the order and turned to leave.

Concubine Qu then warned her son, "Eat slowly, the snacks are quite dry, be careful not to choke..."

"What's going on? You entered the palace without having a meal?"

"Look how hungry you are..."

"When the emperor summoned me, dinner had just been served. I hadn't even started eating when the eunuch arrived. I thought the emperor had something urgent to do, so I rushed over, but I ended up having to wait an hour."

Xiao Xun ate three pieces of snacks in a row and finally felt better. Seeing the palace maid serving him tea, he took two more sips and felt much better.

He patted his belly and suddenly remembered the figure he saw at the palace gate. He raised his eyebrows and asked directly, "Mother, did I just see Liu Qingru outside the gate?"

"You summoned her?"

"Did she make you unhappy? My son is willing to take her into the house just to make you happy. If she is unfilial and you are angry, you might as well just give her up..."

"No need. It's not for her sake. It's for your cousin. Qiu Tong's child is pitiful. I was the imperial concubine back then, but I couldn't save my family. She's the only legitimate descendant of the huge Qu family left..."

"She's been hiding her identity for so many years. Now that Liu Xiu is divorced, she doesn't dare to truly take the position of mistress and show herself openly in front of everyone. Wen Bo has become like that. I feel sorry for her and want to give her some protection..."

Concubine Qu sighed and looked at her son solemnly. She said, "Xun'er, I know you and Qiu Tong have discussed it and want Liu Qingru to enter your house as a concubine..."

"I know that this is a critical moment for you. The position of concubine is important. I don't care whether Liu Qingru is a concubine or a concubine. But, no matter what, Xun'er, I hope you remember that in the future, you must not ignore your cousin and Wen Bo..."

"There are only a few people left in your maternal grandparents' family, a weak woman and a sick child. How pitiful..."
