Chapter 273: Every Word Is Heartbreaking
Every time he called her "Empress Li" in a very strange way.
After all, it was someone she hated, so Concubine Li didn't care about these details.
But she didn't expect that she, who had been fighting in the palace for more than 20 years, would be defeated by Ji Yuntang again and again.
She had never been so frustrated before.
Concubine Li felt that with Luo Qianxue's brain, even ten of her might not be able to defeat one Ji Yuntang.
Of course, at this time, she had to pretend to be very pleased and encourage Luo Qianxue, and not destroy her prestige.
Otherwise, what if she is afraid and regrets it?
Luo Qianxue has done this many times, agreeing one second and regretting the next.
Concubine Li was instantly possessed by the spirit of drama.
"Wow! As expected of my daughter, you are so smart!"
"With Ji Yuntang's brain, I'm afraid even ten of her can't compare to you, Xue'er."
"Xue'er, mother has high hopes for you. Mother is waiting for you to become her sister-in-law to avenge her and help her vent her anger!"
Luo Qianxue likes the feeling of being praised.
She was delighted and nodded proudly.
"Don't worry, mother. Ji Yuntang, that bitch, can't escape from my grasp."
While the two were talking, Jianlan came in to report.
"Madam Li, Princess Ten, I have brought the wife of Duke Rong here. She is waiting outside the door now."
Concubine Li first glanced at Luo Qianxue, signaling her to behave herself and behave well later, and then she said to Jian Lan: "Go and invite the wife of Duke Rong in."
Mrs. Cai had skin as white as jade and a graceful figure. Her well-maintained face looked very young, with not even a trace of fine lines at the corners of her eyes.
She was wearing a long silk dress woven with gold thread, with the neckline and cuffs outlined in gold thread, which brought out her tall and perfect figure. The overall look was generous yet elegant.
After entering the Weiyang Palace, Madam Cai knelt down and saluted to Concubine Li and Luo Qianxue according to etiquette.
Her knees were slightly bent, and just as she was about to kneel down, she was startled by a scream.
Luo Qianxue ordered Jianlan, "Why are you still standing there? Go get some cushions. The floor is so hard. What if Madam's knees get hurt?"
Mrs. Cai: "..."
She wanted to say, there was no need to do this!
She glanced at Luo Qianxue, and Luo Qianxue also looked at her with a sweet smile.
Mrs. Cai instantly felt that there was something wrong with Luo Qianxue's brain.
Luo Qianxue thought that Mrs. Cai was touched by her attentiveness.
She always remembered Concubine Li's words, observed more, and was not humble. While ensuring her own noble status, she also made the other party feel her filial piety and understanding.
Luo Qianxue felt that she was really smart.
This not only does not make her feel humble, but also shows that she is sensible.
With a smile on her face, she said to Madam Cai, "Please wait a moment, Madam Cai. The cushion will be here soon. You can pay your respects to us later."
Unexpectedly, as soon as Luo Qianxue finished speaking, Mrs. Cai lifted her skirt and knelt down.
Her voice was neither sad nor happy, and no emotion could be heard.
"Thank you for your kindness, Princess Ten. However, I am still in good health and my legs are not in any discomfort. I can kneel down and salute without any problem. There is no need to bring a cushion."
After she finished speaking, she said directly: "I greet Her Majesty Li Fei, Princess Ten. I wonder why Her Majesty summoned me here today?"
Concubine Li: "..."
Concubine Li: "!!!"
She was simply being driven to death by Luo Qianxue's stupidity!
Who in their right mind would think of bringing a cushion and asking someone to kneel down?
Shouldn't she just go over and support Mrs. Cai and say there's no need to be so polite?
Concubine Li was extremely angry, but now was not the time for her to blame Luo Qianxue, so she gave Luo Qianxue a look.
"Mrs. Cai, there's no need to be so polite."
"Xue'er, hurry up and help Madam Cai up."
Luo Qianxue didn't expect that Mrs. Cai had knelt down in advance. She was about to reach out to help her, but she saw Mrs. Cai stood up by herself.
"I can get up by myself. There is no need to trouble the Tenth Princess."
Luo Qianxue didn't know whether to put her outstretched hand or not, and felt extremely embarrassed.
Concubine Li spoke in time to help her resolve the embarrassment.
"Xue'er, go and bring a chair over for Madam Cai, and let her chat with me."
"Yes, mother." Luo Qianxue was extremely embarrassed. She quickly agreed and turned to leave.
Concubine Li smiled and said to Madam Cai: "Xue'er has been spoiled by me over the years. She has a simple mind and doesn't have any other intentions. Madam Cai, please don't think too much."
Mrs. Cai had no idea what Concubine Li was up to, so she just smiled at her.
"Even though she is in the imperial palace, the Tenth Princess is still so innocent and naive, all thanks to the good teaching of Concubine Li."
Concubine Li: "..."
Why did she always feel that this was strange?
I always feel that Mrs. Cai is mocking Luo Qianxue for being too pretentious and herself for being too hypocritical?
Concubine Li frowned, hoping she was overthinking it!
At this time, Luo Qianxue moved a nanmu stool over.
This time she learned her lesson and put it directly behind Mrs. Cai's butt.
"Mrs. Cai, please take a seat."
Mrs. Cai did not sit down, but looked at her with a smile.
"The Tenth Princess doesn't look well. Is she tired from moving the chairs?"
Luo Qianxue's body stiffened for a moment. She was not tired at all. She was obviously angry about her own behavior just now.
She personally went to help her but she didn't appreciate it. It was outrageous!
After going out, Luo Qianxue got angry and then moved a chair over.
But she couldn't say this in front of Mrs. Cai, so she could only nod and acknowledge.
"Maybe I haven't had enough rest recently. I'm a little tired. It's no problem."
Madam Cai raised her eyebrows and said to her with a half-smile: "After moving the chairs, you are sweating all over and your face is pale. The Tenth Princess's physical condition is more or less weak!"
"How about when we get back, I'll ask my daughter to write a prescription for the Tenth Princess, so you can take good care of yourself and replenish your blood and qi?"
"You are still so young and you haven't even married yet. You can't be so exhausted just by doing something so trivial. If someone doesn't know, they would think that the Tenth Princess has some serious illness that cannot be cured!"
Mrs. Cai said this, walked around Luo Qianxue, and suddenly whispered in her ear:
"The Tenth Princess and Concubine Li are staying in the palace and don't know that the rumors outside are really serious!"
"As long as there is a little movement among those people of status, basically the whole capital will know about it. Princess Ten should take good care of her health."
Luo Qianxue: "..."
Luo Qianxue: "!!!"
Mrs. Cai actually cursed her?
How dare she!
Luo Qianxue was so angry that she couldn't stand it, but she still tried to smile, but the nails under her sleeves were about to break and dig into her flesh.
She suppressed her anger, put on a fake smile and asked Mrs. Cai.
"Madam, don't you only have Brother Liu Zheng as your son? How come this princess doesn't know when there was a young lady in the Rongguo Mansion?"
