Chapter 572 World 6: The Weak and Helpless Crown Princess (12)
As soon as Nanny Jiang finished speaking, the eunuch's voice was heard at the door.
"The Crown Princess has arrived—"
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes were focused on the Queen who was sitting at the top, wanting to see her reaction.
pity--
The queen simply clenched her hand holding the handkerchief slightly, and nothing else changed.
Nothing could be seen on his face, only a gentle smile, as if he had no dissatisfaction with the Crown Princess at all.
Others were a little disappointed that the show wasn't going to be very good, but they didn't say anything in the end.
Doorway.
A woman in a red palace dress came against the light, wearing gold, silver and kingfisher feathers, and looked luxurious. Her whole demeanor was extraordinary, and no one dared to underestimate her.
As she walked slowly, the bracelets on her waist jingled, which was very pleasant to hear.
When they got closer and the light disappeared, everyone could see her face clearly.
Under the woman's distant mountain-like brows, she had a pair of phoenix eyes that seemed to be able to speak. When she raised her head, the stars in her eyes jumped out, and it seemed that her soul was attracted to her, making people reluctant to look away.
What’s even more amazing is her snow-white skin. I don’t know what kind of makeup is applied on it, but it is so smooth and delicate, like a peeled egg, and even the pores are almost invisible.
What a beautiful person!
However, the concubines were all in a daze, vaguely feeling that the Crown Princess would not look like this and should be ordinary.
but--
Their memories clearly told them that the Crown Princess was such a bright and charming beauty, a beauty that could topple a country.
Maybe it hasn't been nourished by rain and dew before, so it hasn't grown yet?
After thinking it over, the concubines could only convince themselves this way, and then they all stood up and saluted the Crown Princess.
"I pay my respects to the Crown Princess."
The Crown Princess in this country is of the same rank as the Imperial Noble Consort, both of which are of the first rank.
Therefore, even the emperor's concubine had to pay her respects to the crown princess.
However, the queen was still the biggest master in the harem, so Liu Lingxi slowly bowed down and greeted the queen.
"My son, I send my regards to my mother."
The Queen did not call her immediately, but looked carefully at the Crown Princess, whom she had not seen for a long time and who seemed like a completely different person.
Her heart trembled slightly, alarm bells rang in her brain, and she felt as if facing a great enemy.
Yes, a Crown Princess like this could be the heroine of that storybook, so radiant and so eye-catching.
No, I can't let her take away everything I have.
The queen stared at Liu Lingxi intently. There was no gentleness on her face anymore, only a terrifying gaze.
Even Nanny Jiang could see that something was wrong with her own wife.
The queen has always been gentle to others. Why did she show her emotions so openly? This is not good. What if the news gets out...
Fearing that the queen's reputation would be damaged, Nanny Jiang quickly leaned over to remind her own queen.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is not feeling well. The Crown Princess is here to greet you."
"Well, I didn't get enough rest last night, so please excuse me, Crown Princess."
Only after the Queen spoke did everyone dare to stand up straight, but they still couldn't even sit down.
After all, the Crown Princess didn’t sit there, so would they dare to sit there?
Fortunately, the queen did not continue to embarrass them, but forced a smile on her face.
"sit down."
After everyone sat down, some people couldn't wait any longer and started to "question" people.
"Your Highness, the Crown Princess forgot the time to pay her respects to the Queen because Your Highness woke up late."
Liangpin was well taken care of by the current queen when she was in the mansion. Now that she is in the palace, she is even more respectful to the queen in every way.
She is very competent as a vanguard.
Ever since I learned the Queen's intention, I have been thinking about how to question the Crown Princess later.
As soon as Liu Lingxi heard her speak, she knew that the other party had ill intentions.
If she did not answer properly, at best she would be accused of being disrespectful to the Queen, at worst she would anger the Queen and be disliked by the Emperor.
"You are joking, Madam Liangpin. I would never dare to disrespect you, but——
The time for paying respects is always at noon, and I never dare to come late, but did I remember it wrong, or did the Queen Mother change the time?"
Liu Lingxi said this and gave Ye Zhi a look.
Ye Zhi understood and immediately stood up to defend Liu Lingxi.
"To answer the Crown Princess, you left Chonghua Palace at 5:05 AM, and you didn't miss the time even though you were on the road for 2:05 AM. You arrived at Fengyi Palace at 7:07 AM, and you arrived before 7:00 AM."
"Well, maybe Concubine Liang's age... I accidentally remembered it wrong."
Although Liu Lingxi didn't say it directly, everyone knew what she meant.
It was just a mockery of Concubine Liang's age and that she was no longer useful.
For a moment, many concubines covered their mouths with their handkerchiefs, obviously laughing.
When had Concubine Liang ever been ridiculed like this? After she took refuge with the Queen, she was the only one who laughed at others.
Thinking of this, Liangpin looked at the queen with grievance, but received a look that looked like trash from her, so she could only lower her head.
The queen became even angrier!
She has to come in person to get the useless stuff.
She slammed the table, and the teacups on the table knocked against each other, making a "ding-dong" sound.
"How dare you, Crown Princess, as a junior, disrespect your stepmother!"
The Queen is angry!
This was a fact that everyone realized, and they all knelt down and begged the queen to calm down.
"Queen, please calm down."
"I beg you to calm down, mother."
Liu Lingxi also knelt down. She lowered her head and wondered where the queen's hostility towards her came from.
In the past, she was not favored by the prince, and was like a nobody in the eyes of the queen, and no one paid any attention to her.
Of course, no one made things difficult for her, as if they didn't take her seriously.
Now that she is favored, the queen is targeting her.
What does this mean?
At this moment, when everyone was asking the Queen to calm down, a message came from outside the door -
"The emperor has arrived, the prince has arrived!"
?
Why did the Emperor and the Crown Prince come in person?
Everyone was shocked, even the queen.
"Your Majesty, I wish you the best of health. I also wish to pay my respects to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"I am here to pay my respects to the Emperor and the Crown Prince."
"The Queen was very angry today, but you slaves failed to serve her well."
The emperor's majestic voice sounded, carrying a strong sense of oppression, which made people feel scared.
This is the first time Liu Lingxi has met the emperor in her life.
In her previous life, she was not favored and rarely showed her face in front of the emperor.
Later, the prince unfortunately died. After she became a widow, she was regarded as an unlucky person and was disliked by the emperor. She never saw him again.
I don’t know if the emperor will still ignore her in this life.
While she was thinking about all sorts of things, the queen spoke.
"Your Majesty, don't be angry. It has nothing to do with them. It was the Crown Princess who contradicted Concubine Liang today, and I am upset for the time being."
The Queen didn't want the Emperor to see the Crown Princess, but it was obviously too late to stop him now.
Then just put the blame on her and ruin her image in the emperor's mind.
