Today's supporting actress is also showing off her acting skills

Chapter 216
Liu Jiaoyue touched the hand that was hurt by her mother's slap, smiled flatteringly at her mother, and said coquettishly: "Mother, I didn't pay attention just now." After speaking, she sneaked a glance in Wanyan Su's direction, After realizing that the other party was also looking at him, he blushed and lowered his head, clutching the chopsticks in his hand, very shy.

Mrs. Liu naturally noticed her daughter's unusual behavior, looked at her strangely, and said, "What's wrong with you today? Why are you talking, why are you so red? But do you have a fever?" Mrs. Liu said while raising her hand He touched Liu Jiaoyue's forehead and tried her body temperature.

"Oh no, mother." Liu Jiaoyue was even more embarrassed by the words, avoiding her mother's hand.

Everyone admired the singing and dancing at the banquet, but the seat of the sixth princess was always empty.

The sixth princess is the emperor's most beloved princess, and it is common for her to be rude and unruly on weekdays. The palace people didn't care too much about the late arrival of the banquet, but the emperor was the first to find out that the sixth princess did not attend the dinner. He put down his jade chopsticks and watched the sixth princess empty Looking at the case, he asked the chief eunuch next to him: "Where did Xiao Liu go wild again? Why didn't I see her at the dinner party? But who offended her again and played a temper?"

"The servant will go to the sixth princess's palace and ask the sixth princess." The chief eunuch said with his hands folded, and then stepped back.

The Queen Mother on the side heard this and smiled lightly at the emperor: "The emperor is still too doting on the child Xiaoliu, otherwise he would not be able to develop such a unruly and willful temper."

"What the Queen Mother said is that Xiaoliu is still young after all. It won't be too late to teach her when she is older." The Emperor said respectfully to the Queen Mother.

"Small? Xiaoliu will be seventeen in this year's time. It should be the age to marry. Look at our patriarch Ying, who is not much older than Xiaoliu. Changying is married and now she is sensible. , Xiao Liu is still like a wild girl who has no rules and no rules, she only knows how to play crazy all day long, what does she look like."

The Queen Mother looked at the emperor with disapproval. When arranging the Sixth Princess, she did not forget to praise Jin Changying. In fact, she did not mean to criticize her. After all, the Sixth Princess was her granddaughter, but she cherished her more. Jin Changying, who lost his mother a little, was a little bit more. Another wish that intensified the conflict between the sixth princess and Jin Changying was the empress dowager's eccentricity.

"The empress mother is very right. Xiaoliu is almost seventeen. I also wonder if I have proposed marriage to her." Hearing the empress dowager's words, the emperor didn't quite agree with him, but he didn't refute them. He just agreed with a smile. , but she was slandering in her heart that the Queen Mother loved Jin Changying so much, if she didn't know, she would have thought that Jin Changying was her own granddaughter.

The queen on the side was also a little dissatisfied when she heard the queen mother's words. The queen mother has treated these juniors equally for so many years. After ascending the throne, the queen mother thought of picking peaches, but she had a whimsical idea to let Jin Changying's niece enter the palace as the queen, but she, the main concubine, was reduced to a concubine. The queen was naturally not happy, but fortunately, it didn't work out in the end .

Although it didn't work out, in the empress's heart, there was still some pimples. Until now, the empress felt a little dissatisfied with the empress dowager.

It was clear that the prince was the grandson of the Queen Mother, but the Queen Mother did not care for the prince one-tenth as much as she did Jin Changying. This made the Queen, a daughter-in-law, feel very resentful, but she kept silent because of her face.

Now the Queen Mother shows up to Jin Changying every once in a while, and she doesn't know what a notorious evil woman in the capital has to show off. The Queen's mind was spinning a thousand times, but she nodded with great approval on her face, and said with a smile. : "What the queen mother said is very reasonable. At Xiaoliu's age, no matter how much the emperor likes her, he won't be able to keep her. Otherwise, he will harm her."

"En." The emperor nodded. In fact, he already knew the purpose of the Jurchen envoy's coming to Beijing to ask for marriage. He just wanted to choose a royal princess and a pro-Jurchen. Now there are only six princesses of the right age in the palace. The sixth princess was his favorite daughter, and most of the other princesses married out of the palace at the age of fifteen or sixteen. He wanted to stay with the sixth princess for two more years, so there was a delay, but unexpectedly, he got a request from the Jurchen tribe for marriage.

This put the emperor in a bit of trouble. He didn't want his favorite daughter to go thousands of miles away to get married. However, the Jurchen tribe was not easy to explain. Just when the emperor was secretly hesitating in his heart and wanted to find a scapegoat to marry the sixth princess, the queen But as if he didn't understand the emperor's thoughts, he said with a smile: "Marriage is not easy. I heard that the Jurchen envoy came to the Xi Dynasty this time and wanted to marry a princess back to Jurchen. In this case, let the sixth princess and his own Jurchen, It's a good story, I don't know what the emperor wants?"

The queen's words were tantamount to pushing the sixth princess into the fire pit, but she didn't seem to notice it, and put on a face for the sixth princess, and the sixth princess was not her own daughter.

The sixth princess was born to the noble concubine. If she could make the six princesses whole, she would be able to put a knife in the heart of the noble concubine. After drinking it all over, she only gave birth to a daughter like the Sixth Princess. Fortunately, the Sixth Princess was the one who was most favored by the emperor among the many princes and princesses. I felt a little bit wronged.

The empress and the noble concubine are in the same situation, so naturally they can't have the slightest favor for the sixth princess born to the noble concubine, and even wish to let her die in an ugly and ugly way. I heard that in these barbarian tribes, women not only have to serve their husbands when they marry, but also husbands. After death, she has to marry her husband's younger brother, and I don't know if the sixth princess can stand the torture.

The queen was gloating in her heart, with a graceful and generous look on her face. She looked at the emperor, and her voice was not too soft. Originally, the emperor and the queen mother were just chatting about daily life, but what the queen said made everyone happy. Everyone in the palace heard it.

Chaoyang Hall, which was still a little noisy, quieted down at some point.

The emperor frowned slightly when he heard the empress's words, and he didn't know whether the empress did it intentionally or unintentionally, but said such words on such an occasion. There should be a number, but at the moment, the matter has not yet been settled, and she talked about it arbitrarily, which made the emperor quite dissatisfied.

It wasn't just the emperor who was dissatisfied. The queen mother on the side had a gentle smile on her face. When she heard the queen's words, her lips were pursed into a straight line, and she gave the queen a slightly gloomy look.

Although the sixth princess is usually willful and reckless, she is her own granddaughter after all. How could the queen mother have the heart to let her marry into such a wild place to suffer? It is self-evident why the queen said such words at this time. It's just that the appearance of eating is too ugly.

Liu Jiaoyue, who was still a little deer in her heart, turned pale visibly when she heard the queen's words.
