Chapter 180 Meimei is invisible
Now that they knew the purpose of this banquet, many girls could no longer contain themselves and wanted to use all their skills to attract the Queen's attention.
Of course, there were also a few girls from good family backgrounds, but their pride only allowed them to become someone else's wife, so they were somewhat uninterested in this banquet.
"It's so lively here. I was wondering who it was, but it turns out it's the Empress having a tea party here."
"Why, you're only looking for young girls here, and you didn't even notify your sisters to come over and get together?"
Concubine Rou approached with her waist twisted, her face still looking rather unhappy with the anger still lingering, but she still curled the corners of her lips stiffly, looking somewhat sarcastic.
The queen was not surprised by her appearance, and even calmly asked the maid beside her to add a seat for her.
When Li Qianxue and Li Junlin arrived, they saw only Concubine Rou and the Queen sitting at a table, and the rest of the female family members were standing sparsely outside the pavilion, chatting with great interest.
"Phew, luckily mother didn't have a fit..."
Looking at the woman sitting there with a bad look on her face, Li Qianxue breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that my mother still has some sense...
The girl pulled Li Junlin and walked towards the pavilion, not noticing that the man next to her had already become nostalgic in his gaze when he saw the crescent-shaped figure.
Jiang Li stood obediently behind the queen, her black hair hanging down in front of her chest, making her palm-sized face look even more petite and delicate.
I haven't seen her for a month. She has lost a lot of weight...
As the distance got closer, Li Junlin could clearly feel his heartbeat getting stronger and stronger.
The moist almond-shaped eyes looked at him, and the man's big hands hanging by his legs suddenly clenched into fists, and his breathing stopped for a moment.
"Your son greets the Queen Mother, Mother Consort."
It was only when Li Qianxue pulled him hard that he came to his senses and greeted the two women at the table.
The queen just raised her eyebrows slightly at the sudden appearance of the brother and sister, and didn't say much.
"The ones here today are all women from the capital's aristocratic families. Qianxue can hang out with them more and make some new friends."
The queen smiled gently, her eyes looking lovingly at Li Qianxue.
Every time she sees Li Qianxue, she thinks of her daughter, Li Xiyuan.
Although they are half-sisters, they look very similar in their eyes and eyebrows, but their personalities are two extremes.
Li Qianxue has a noisy personality. When she was a child, she often jumped around in the palace and was particularly tough.
On the contrary, her daughter Xiyuan, the eldest princess of Beichen, was born with a weak constitution. As she grew up, her health deteriorated. Now she even had difficulty leaving her princess residence...
The Queen's eyes couldn't help but become sad again, and it was all caught by Concubine Rou.
The woman curled her red lips sarcastically. She knew at once that she was sad for her disabled daughter.
It's funny to say that she is the queen, but neither of her children is worry-free.
The second prince is not doing his job properly. He only wants to travel around. In order not to get involved in the struggle for imperial power, he has not even returned to Beichen for several years. Now no one knows where he is. If he dies outside one day, no one will know.
Her daughter was born with a disability. Although it might be caused by her bowl of "tonic soup", who made her stand by that bitch and want to deal with her together?
She deserves all this...
"Thank you, Queen Mother, for your advice. I understand."
Li Qianxue still respected the queen. After all, compared with her mother, this woman was really gentle and kind, and she had taken special care of her since she was a child.
So even though her mother and the Queen had always been at odds, she had never disobeyed the Queen...
Concubine Rou couldn't help but glance at Li Qianxue coldly. What a loser! When others treated her well, she couldn't tell whether people were good or bad.
"There are so many noble ladies here today. Lin'er, please accompany your sister. Your marriage can't be delayed any longer. Go and see if there are any girls you can talk to. Don't let your father worry about your marriage anymore."
Concubine Rou spoke softly, and Jiang Li and the Queen's eyes fell on her at the same time.
Unlike the Queen's cold expression, Jiang Li curled her lips as if she was looking forward to the show.
I didn’t expect that the royal family members were all on the same page when it came to urging marriage.
Now that Li Junlin is there to act as a shield for her, she can hide away beautifully.
As soon as Concubine Rou finished speaking, the man standing opposite Jiang Li set his eyes on the girl.
Seeing her excited look when she heard his mother ask him to go and get along with other girls, his heart felt like it was ripped open and cold wind was rushing in.
He was getting married, and she was so happy?
Ah.
Li Junlin chuckled at himself, and there was a coldness in his gloomy phoenix eyes.
Did she think she could get rid of him like this... It would never be possible in this lifetime.
Li Junlin's wife would only be Jiang Li. This was something they had agreed on long ago...
The man's jaw was clenched, and his eyes were full of paranoia.
Li Qianxue, who was closest to him, naturally heard her royal brother's chuckle. When she looked over curiously, her round eyes instantly widened with fright.
What happened to her brother? No one messed with him. Why did he look so grim?
Li Qianxue shrank her neck in fear. In fact, from childhood to adulthood, besides her father, the person she was most afraid of was her eldest brother.
Even though they were siblings, she still felt that Li Youchuan and Li Jinyuan were closer...
"What are you two still doing here? I'm chatting with the Queen and the Crown Princess, so please stop being an eyesore."
Concubine Rou glared at them unhappily. Didn’t she see that she was creating opportunities for them?
The queen glanced at Concubine Rou indifferently. She knew all the calculations in her heart.
The woman casually fiddled with her golden and noble armor, and her red lips parted slightly.
"In that case, Li'er should go with them."
"You are supposed to be selecting some concubines for the prince's backyard, so don't waste your time chatting with us old people."
"Young people, it's better to spend more time with young people. I've seen that the daughter of the Lin family has been flirting with you for a long time. I guess she can't wait to find you. Go quickly. Don't worry about me here. I have Concubine Rou to accompany me."
