The Empress Wants To Be Deposed! - Chapter 31
Song Jinning propped her right elbow on the kang table, resting her cheek in her hand, while sipping the frozen lemon tea in a glass cup while looking at Li Chengxuan who was sitting across from her.
Li Chengxuan: …
Li Chengxuan’s heartbeat speeded up uncontrollably. While eating the caramel pudding, the silver spoon in his hand touched the wall of the bowl several times and made a crisp sound.
Song Jinning just pretended not to hear, she still watched him while drinking frozen lemon tea.
Li Chengxuan felt that his heart would jump out of his chest if she saw it like this.
He asked gruffly: “What do you keep looking at me like this?”
Song Jinning squinted and smiled, her eyes filled with playful light.
“Because a flower grows on your face.”
Li Chengxuan:? ?
Is he a tree or a vine, and a flower can grow on his face?
Is this coaxing him as a child?
A handsome face turned black involuntarily, and lightly scolded: “Speak well!”
“Okay.” Song Jinning was not afraid of him at all, she still had the usual lazy look on her face, “I just want to see what your majesty is up to.”
Li Chengxuan who asked this was startled.
Yeah, what is he upset about?
Because Song Jinning’s caramel pudding was not given to him alone, but to the healer?
Or is it because the healer is a little boy?
There was a vague guess in his mind, but he didn’t want to admit it.
Because he thought it was ridiculous. At the same time, he also accepted that he couldn’t.
But there are some things that humans can control. Although Li Chengxuan couldn’t accept what he might have been tempted with Song Jinning, but now he looked at Song Jinning and thought she was good everywhere.
With slender eyebrows and apricot eyes, white teeth and red lips, her whole person is like a Begonia flower that blooms on a branch in March, and she is extraordinary.
Li Chengxuan was stunned for a while.
When he reacted, he just threw down the silver spoon in his hand in fright, got up and stood up, and then strode out of the hall.
Song Jinning raised an eyebrow in confusion as he looked at his back running away like a dog from the family.
Gu Yu was puzzled.
She turned her head and wanted to use her eyes to convey to Bailu her incomprehension at the moment, and to communicate with each other why her Majesty suddenly ran away without making a sound. She didn’t want to see the latter’s face with openness and magnanimity. swing.
Obviously, her heart was so open at this moment, she didn’t even think about it.
Even when meeting her worried gaze, Bai Lu tilted her head slightly, and then blinked at her twice.
The meaning is obvious. Gu Yu, what do you see me doing? Something?
Gu Yu:……
So why would she want to communicate this with Bai Lu? This guy has a simple mind, except for the mother, she doesn’t care about other people or things at all.
Gu Yu felt that he had suffered a serious internal injury.
She silently swallowed a mouthful of old blood that had already poured into her throat, and then said to Song Jinning: “Mother, Your Majesty is gone.”
“Oh.”
Although Song Jinning’s face wasn’t the same candid expression as Bai Lu’s, it was also a face of old **** who was carelessly indifferent.
“Just leave.”
Gu Yu was crazy.
Why are both of them like this? So is she alone so that the relationship between the empress and your majesty can be better at night?
Li Chengxuan hasn’t been to Weiyang Palace for several days, and Song Jinning doesn’t care much about it.
As usual, I still read books in my palace, flirt up cats, look at flowers, and go to bed. What’s more, I went to the Queen Mother of Song to talk and fight, and my life was really leisurely.
It’s just as bad. When she accumulated some of the puzzles in the medical book, and asked someone to go to the imperial hospital to ask Liu Lanxi to come and solve her confusion, the person who came was not Liu Lanxi, but Zhou Yizheng.
Song Jinning naturally wanted to ask the reason, and learned that Lee Chengxuan returned that day and sent Zhou Jing to the imperial hospital.
First, Zhou Yizheng was reprimanded, saying that he disrespected the queen. The queen is confused. Since he is a doctor who is going to solve the confusion in person, how can he send a little healer there? Clearly it is to despise the queen. Ask him if he is not guilty.
In short, first a big hat fluttered and covered his head. The scared Doctor Zhou was kneeling on the ground and shaking like a quail in the rain, saying that he didn’t dare to convict himself.
Later, Zhou Jing’s conversation changed. He said that Zhou Yizheng was convicted, and his Majesty would give him another chance. In the future, whenever the queen has a call, Zhou Yizheng must go forward, and no other people can be faked.
After such a combination of punches, Zhou Yizheng dare not listen?
So just learned that there was a maidservant from Weiyang Palace to invite Liu Lanxi over, Doctor Zhou immediately packed up.
Song Jinning’s mind was blank for a moment.
What does Li Chengxuan mean?
Good for her? Even if the two of them are in a contractual marriage, but now she is a queen, then she should have the honor of being a queen, and no one can tolerate contempt?
So the reason why he was unhappy that day was because of this?
Why don’t you tell her directly? There was another person who was awkward for a long time, and asked him without saying.
However, according to Song Jinning’s understanding of Li Chengxuan these days, this person is basically an upright person. Presumably, he would never expressly care about her face in front of her.
Or maybe he only cares about his own face? After all, the emperor and the queen are one. If she loses face as a queen, how big his face as an emperor can be.
But no matter what, she decided to inherit this love.
He asked Gu Yu to give Li Chengxuan a copy of the milk jelly just made in the small kitchen.
Gu Yu came back to report, saying that His Majesty didn’t see her at all, and Zhou Jing came out to collect the custard and give it in.
There is no anxiety in speech.
Because she used to send desserts to the imperial library, Li Chengxuan would ask her to ask questions such as what ingredients were used for this dessert, how it was made, and what the queen is doing now. But this time Li Chengxuan was uncharacteristically.
So your Majesty is tired of the empress, or annoyed by the empress, or is he still angry with the empress in his heart?
Song Jinning was quite calm about this, not worried at all.
In the past two days, she has heard some things about the previous dynasty.
It is said that Jiangnan reported the Dragon Boat Festival flood, and the house and crops were destroyed when the floods passed. Jiangbei reported the drought, saying it was a thousand miles of fertile fields cracked, all the seedlings died, and there were countless victims.
Misfortunes never come singly, and the border is still unstable.
Together, these things are enough to make Li Chengxuan burn out. Where is there to worry about how a small dessert is made?
Although Song Jinning is a queen, she can’t help with these things in the previous dynasty. After much deliberation, the only thing to do is to find something less for Li Chengxuan and let him be more comfortable.
He acquiesced that Zhou Yizheng would explain to her in the future, and no longer ask Liu Lanxi to come over.
On this day, she read a medical book in the palace for a while, and when the sky was overcast, she called Shang Gu Yu and Bai Lu to go to Shoukang Palace together.
When I got to the place, I was surprised to see that Jiang Wanqiu was there.
It turned out that Jiang Wanqiu’s last event was unsuccessful. After returning home, he learned from the pain and decided to change his strategy.
It is difficult to meet Lee Seung-hsun in the harem, but Lee Seung-hsun is a filial emperor, and will often go to please the Queen Mother Song. In that case, why doesn’t she go to Shoukang Palace?
This will not only greatly increase the chance of seeing Li Chengxuan, but even talk to Li Chengxuan.
Jiang Wanqiu also knew that although her appearance was beautiful and elegant, Song Jinning’s appearance was also outstanding. It was understandable that Li Chengxuan did not surprise her last time.
But what does it matter? She thought silently in her heart. According to the enlightenment in that dream, Li Chengxuan’s harem ring was fat and thin, and there were all kinds of beauties, but she was the only one who was connected with Li Chengxuan.
In other words, she has never made Lee Seung Sun fall in love with her only by her appearance.
But that being said, when she saw Song Jinning wearing a light blue skirt and walking into the hall with a smile, Jiang Wanqiu couldn’t help feeling sore.
Without him. Song Jinning’s appearance is really outstanding.
Just like the rising sun, it has its own light, no one can ignore it.
And because of their identities, Song Jinning had to stand up and salute her as soon as Jiang Wanqiu entered the hall.
Song Jinning was surprised for a moment.
“Princess Fu doesn’t need to be polite, just get up.”
After sending Jiang Wanqiu a sentence, Song Jinning walked to the back of Mrs. Song and called her aunt.
At first, Song Jinning would salute the Empress Dowager Song every time she came to Shoukang Palace, but the Queen Mother Song later told her that the family had to salute every time they met. How troublesome? And it doesn’t seem close. E’ai’s family sees this customary etiquette between our wives and we are forgiven.
Song Jinning naturally obeyed this. So she never salutes when she comes to Shoukang Palace now.
Jiang Wanqiu saw it, envious in her heart.
She remembered that in the dream she had, Li Chengxuan said she was a concubine, every time she saw the Queen Mother Song, she never looked good to herself. Later, Li Chengxuan abolished Song Jinning and made her the queen. The Queen Mother Song had a big temper. Point to her face and scold her for shamelessness.
After that, it was even more enunciated that she was not allowed to step into the Shoukang Palace. Her Empress Dowager Song never admits that she has such a daughter-in-law.
So now, seeing the scene of Song Jinning and the Empress Dowager Song living in harmony, how could Jiang Wanqiu feel better in his heart?
Queen Mother Song would not pay attention to her. Seeing Song Jinning, the brows that had been frowned before finally relaxed.
“How did you come?”
She stretched out her hand and shook Song Jinning’s hand, pulled her to sit next to her, and asked affectionately, “How is it, is it hot outside?”
As the saying goes, the rain doesn’t know the spring, but the clear summer knows the depth of the summer. It has been rainy days, and the weather is very cool, which makes people mistakenly believe that it is still in the spring when the weather is suitable. I don’t want the sky to clear up suddenly a few days ago, the bright white sun hung in the sky, and the temperature suddenly went up.
It’s almost a second to summer.
This kind of weather is only suitable for staying indoors or in a cool place, and you will have to sweat when you walk around a little bit.
“It’s okay.” Song Jinning also smiled affectionately, “It’s cloudy outside, and there’s a silky wind, it’s not very hot.”
Queen Mother Song nodded and said yes, and asked Cui Nong to serve sour plum juice sooner.
The Queen Mother Song’s spleen and stomach are not very good, so this sour plum juice dare not be chilled, just soak it in the freshly drilled well water to get a hint of coolness.
Cui Nong led the maidservant to offer Song Jinning a bowl of sour plum juice, and naturally also a bowl for Queen Mother Song.
As for Jiang Wanqiu, I can’t let the family sit here and watch the two of their wives drink, right? He ordered Cui Nong to also serve a bowl to Princess Fu.
Cui Nong responded and poured a bowl and asked the maidservant to send it over.
So Jiang Wanqiu, who had been sitting in the Shoukang Palace for half an hour, got a bowl of heat-relieving drink.
Sitting in the chair while slowly sipping the sour plum juice from the bowl, Jiang Wanqiu looked blankly at the Queen Mother Song and Song Jinning, who were sitting at the top and laughing at Yan Yan.
Hmph, even if you two are now a queen mother and the other a queen, what’s so great about that?
Soon the queen’s seat will be my turn. At that time, I will be the master of the Sixth House. Not to mention that Song Jinning is an abandoned empress, but you, the empress dowager, will not dare to be presumptuous in front of me.
Swallowing the sour plum juice that was not cold in her mouth, Jiang Wanqiu began to think in her heart, this time she would definitely not be like’Dream’, and refused Li Chengxuan’s words to be her own queen several times, and finally nodded after a few years of entanglement. agree. She would agree from the first time Li Chengxuan said he wanted to make her a successor.
She wants to be the queen soon. Then Fu Yin’s family, let Wei Taifei and others only look up to her from now on.
Thinking of what she was proud of, Jiang Wanqiu could only feel agitated. The sour plum juice in his hand was actually like jelly jelly, and it was incredibly sweet and delicious in the mouth.
At this time, I heard a maidservant from outside the hall shouting to the inside, saying that it was your majesty.
