Chapter 118: Want to crush him?
Chapter 118: Want to crush him?
When Qin Liuse heard the Empress Dowager say this, she frowned slightly and looked at her with a pout.
He looked like he was listening to a lesson, but he felt very uncomfortable inside.
He looked just like a pampered youngster in the family, and even made the Queen Mother laugh.
For a while, there was talking and laughing in Yongshou Palace, and the atmosphere was extremely good.
However, Qin Liuse had things on her plate, so she couldn't sit for too long. She came here today to discuss the little prince's full moon celebration with the Empress Dowager Cixi.
After chatting and laughing for a while and finishing their business, they had to leave Yongshou Palace.
She did not go back to Shuyuexuan directly, but went to Yuxiu Palace to find Concubine Li.
Time flies, and it is almost July. Emperor Yongjia has only these two sons, and each of them is like a treasure.
Therefore, the full moon banquet must be held.
Emperor Yongjia did not like extravagance. He said that he would just do the same as the princess before him, setting up a family banquet for the full moon in the harem and inviting all his family members to come and have fun, and that would be the end of it.
However, although Emperor Yongjia said so, Qin Liuse and Concubine Li did not dare to neglect him.
A full-month banquet is a full-month banquet, but this is the birth of the first prince after his ascension to the throne, so the proper decency is indispensable.
And there are many rituals to be performed before and after this.
Just the list of gifts for Concubine Zhang and the little prince had to be confirmed over and over again.
Although Qin Liuse is nominally Qin Huaijin's sister and the daughter of their Qin family.
But after all, he came from Yangzhou, and his family was a businessman, so he had some money on hand, so he made a golden longevity lock weighing four taels for the little prince, preparing to give it to him when the time comes.
At night, go to Chengqian Palace to serve.
Emperor Yongjia knew that they had been busy with the matters of Concubine Zhang and the Second Prince recently, so he asked for some details.
When Emperor Yongjia heard that Qin Liuse was going to give the Second Prince a longevity lock weighing four taels, he was obviously stunned.
"He's still so young, and you gave him such a heavy gold lock. Are you planning to crush him?"
Qin Liuse glared at Emperor Yongjia, "What is the emperor talking about? How can a father speak like this?"
Emperor Yongjia smiled, but did not think there was anything wrong with what he said.
If your son can't bear it because of a few words or a sentence, then he doesn't deserve to be his son.
Qin Liuse curled her lips, thinking that the child is still so young, but he is already so strict. She wondered how much she would be afraid of her father in the future.
Emperor Yongjia smiled, touched Qin Liuse's face, and spoke to her for a few more words. It seemed that he did not want to continue this topic, so he talked about something else.
The two of them sat on the couch in the main hall, talking and drinking tea, enjoying themselves very much.
As he was speaking, Emperor Yongjia waved his hand and asked someone to come in and add more tea.
Qingzhu and Qingcao were both guarding outside the door. Upon hearing what was said, they walked in with their heads down.
After adding tea and wine, the two men, one holding the teapot and the other holding the wine pot, retreated.
Qin Liuse now felt displeased with this Qingzhu girl no matter how he looked at her.
She originally thought that the best way to deal with these two people was to sow discord between them and let them fight each other, which would be most beneficial to her.
But after observing for some time, the other Qingcao girl didn't seem to be as hostile to her as Qingzhu.
Every time she came in to offer tea, she was well-behaved and there was nothing strange in her eyes, like an honest girl.
Unlike that bamboo, which started looking around as soon as it came in, with really no manners.
So Qin Liuse didn't think that by doing this, he was killing a servant.
Because of this bamboo, it was Concubine Xin Shufei’s person.
If she didn't guard against it and didn't deal with her, one day, Concubine Xin Shu might use her against her.
She didn't believe that Concubine Xin Shu sent the two maids to the emperor at once just to serve Emperor Yongjia better.
Do you really think that Emperor Yongjia has been on the throne for so long without any other maids serving him in the palace?
It’s hard to say, I just wanted to keep this person by his side in case he could be of great use one day.
And even if Qin Liuse didn't deal with them, Qingzhu would never join her.
Qin Liuse was beside Emperor Yongjia, grinding ink for him and playing the role of a concubine. She watched him write on the paper in a flamboyant manner, and the two of them talked to each other word by word.
As they were talking, Qingzhu came in with a new teapot and reported to Emperor Yongjia, "Your Majesty, Concubine Shu is here."
Qin Liuse glanced at Emperor Yongjia, then glanced at Qingzhu, and raised his eyebrows.
Listen! Look!
Qin Liuse, a living person of such a big age, was standing here, but when Qingzhu came in, he only reported to Emperor Yongjia and did not take her, the Zhaoyi, seriously at all.
Not only did he not report it to her, he didn't even bother to look at her gesture.
If one knows the rules, when entering, one should say, "Your Majesty, Zhaoyi, the Concubine Shu is here."
But Qingzhu didn't even look at her, which made Qin Liuse more determined in her inner thoughts.
