Chapter 128 Entering the Palace to See You
"Greetings, Father, Your Majesty"
"Meet the Queen"
Chu Tianze and Bai Chuxiao bowed together
Emperor Wenxuan's expression showed no emotion, he said calmly, "Get up!"
Looking at the two people below, Empress Li secretly hated them. Emperor Wenxuan actually took the bitch Concubine Jing out of the palace yesterday. Wasn't this a slap in her face? Chu Tianze was a lowly creature. Was he worthy of them leaving the palace to attend his wedding?
But he showed a gentle smile and called out, "Bishui!"
Then Bishui brought a tray and walked up to Bai Chuxiao.
Bai Chuxiao picked up a cup, bowed to Emperor Wenxuan again, and said with a faint smile, "Father, please have some tea."
Emperor Wenxuan took a sip and nodded with a smile, "Well, get up."
Bai Chuxiao then stood up
Seeing her obedient appearance, Emperor Wenxuan said with a half-smile, "I heard that you and Old Seven fought on the roof for half the night last night?"
Bai Chuxiao lowered her eyes. The appearance of Emperor Wenxuan yesterday was unusual in itself, but she hadn't had time to ask what happened. Now she saw that Emperor Wenxuan had clearly had people monitoring Prince Yan's Mansion.
Chu Tianze stepped forward quickly, "Father, Xiaoxiao and I have always liked to wield swords and guns. We drank a little yesterday and couldn't help but spar with each other."
Emperor Wenxuan snorted coldly, "Is that the day for sparring?"
Bai Chuxiao's face was a little embarrassed, "Father..."
Emperor Wenxuan said calmly, "Alright, stop messing around in the future. It will be embarrassing if it gets out."
"Yes"
Bai Chuxiao took another cup and bowed to Queen Li, "Queen, please have some tea."
Queen Li did not take it but smiled and said, "You are now both a princess and the Princess of Yan. You represent the face of the royal family. You must be more self-disciplined and polite in the future. Do you understand?"
Bai Chuxiao raised her teacup and nodded perfunctorily. You just want to show off your power. It's just serving tea. It won't tire me. Whatever you say,
Queen Li spoke slowly again, "Now that you are the daughter-in-law of the royal family, don't mention those words of fighting and killing anymore. The most important thing is to expand the royal family. Do you understand?"
Having a baby? Bai Chuxiao is really not interested. At least she has to be 18 years old. How can she have a baby when she is so young? If she really has a baby, you will be even more worried.
Emperor Wenxuan still had some government affairs to attend to, and was impatient to listen to Empress Li's long speech, so he waved his hand and left.
After he left, Queen Li became even more aggressive and said a lot of teachings. She refused to drink tea or wake up, which was clearly intended to disgust Bai Chuxiao. However, no one could say that the mother of a country was teaching the royal daughter-in-law etiquette. Bai Chuxiao remained calm and had long been lost in thought. This was the only chance to disgust her openly.
Chu Tianze's eyes turned cold, and he spoke slowly, "Empress, it's getting late."
Queen Li seemed to have just come to her senses. She took the teacup and said with a smile, "Look at my memory. I hope you two children won't blame me."
Bai Chuxiao smiled slightly, "How could it be?"
How could I blame you? I just wanted to beat you to death. Except for Liu Shuyao, the other princesses must have been tortured by her on the second day of their wedding.
Queen Li smiled faintly, "I knew you were a sensible person."
Bai Chuxiao smiled and said, "Empress, if you don't drink your tea, it will get cold."
Queen Li's eyes flickered slightly, she touched the teacup, and said with a smile, "Xiaoxiao reminded me that the tea is really cold."
Bishui hurried forward and said, "My queen, you are not feeling well, you can't have a cold drink, I will go get you another cup."
Queen Li nodded and handed her the teacup. She looked at Bai Chuxiao and smiled softly, "I haven't been feeling well lately. I'll have to trouble Xiaoxiao to serve you tea again."
Bai Chuxiao smiled sweetly, "It's my duty."
After a while, Bishui brought another tray to Bai Chuxiao, "Princess, please serve tea."
Bai Chuxiao looked at the steaming tea, a cold look flashed in her eyes. How could she hold this thing when it was so hot? Would he say it was too hot and ask her to serve it again? This would never end.
Chu Tianze, who was standing at the side, had murderous intent in his eyes. He walked forward, picked up the teacup and poured it on Bishui's hand regardless of the heat. Bishui felt the pain and retracted her hand, and the tray fell to the ground.
Queen Li looked unhappy and said sternly, "Seventh Brother, what are you doing?"
Chu Tianze said coldly, "This dog slave can't even make a cup of tea. What if he burns the princess and the queen?"
Queen Li was a little annoyed. When was it her servant's turn to be disciplined by the Seventh Prince? She was about to scold
Chu Tianze said coldly, "It's getting late. The prince and the princess have to go and pay their respects to the mother, so we won't disturb the queen anymore."
After saying that, he took Bai Chuxiao's hand and walked out. No matter what, he didn't like them, so he might as well break up with them.
Queen Li was furious. She slammed the table and shouted, "Stop right there!"
But Bai Chuxiao and Chu Tianze acted as if they didn't hear anything. The tea-serving farce was enough. If it continued, Bai Chuxiao was afraid that she would not be able to hold back and take action.
The two of them walked all the way to Fusang Pavilion, and their faces finally looked better.
"Meet the Mother"
Concubine Jing stepped forward and pulled the two of them up. "Xiao Xiao, what happened to Ze'er? Did you get angry with the Queen?"
Chu Tianze said calmly, "Mother should know about the torture methods used in the palace."
Lady Jing took Bai Chuxiao's hand again and said distressedly, "Xiaoxiao, I'm sorry."
Bai Chuxiao smiled, "Don't you know Xiaoxiao's temper, mother? Who can make me angry?"
Bai Chuxiao frowned again, looked at Chu Tianze and asked, "But what we did just now, will the Queen deal with my mother?"
After all, they were outside the palace, and Queen Li couldn't extend her hand that far. But what could Concubine Jing do? There were indeed many ways to torture people in the palace, and she didn't want Concubine Jing to be wronged because of them.
Noble Lady Jing chuckled and spoke slowly, "Don't worry, Xiaoxiao, just do whatever you want, don't worry about me. When I was young, there were indeed many tricks in the palace, but now the princes are so old, the concubines in the palace have fought less, and His Majesty is impatient to see those, and the Queen doesn't dare to do anything blatantly."
Bai Chuxiao smiled embarrassedly and said, "That's good. I don't want to see my mother being wronged."
Although she had not had much contact with Concubine Jing, Concubine Jing had always spoken for her and stood by her side unconditionally over the past few times. Now that she was married to Chu Tianze, she was willing to treat her as her real mother.
Concubine Jing patted her hands and said with a smile, "I have seen all kinds of storms over the years. I know the methods used in the palace very well. I will never let anyone bully me."
Chu Tianze was also relieved, "Mother, if there is anything, you must tell us, don't keep it in your heart."
When they were young, mother and son had indeed suffered a lot of hardships, but after he was stationed at the border and was granted the title of prince and had a fiefdom, his mother had indeed stopped suffering those grievances. Emperor Wenxuan would always give some face to the biological mother of an adult prince, and no one dared to go too far.
