Princess you sits at the front of the table. She holds her handkerchief and smiles at Meng Li: "my sister is in good spirits recently. Is it because the crown prince is happy to choose a concubine?"

Meng Li Duan sits on the top, hears what you Guifei said, and looks slightly at you Guifei.

He said:

"how do you feel in this palace that the crown prince chooses his concubine and you Guifei is happier than this palace."

"Look at your smile, the fine lines in the corners of your eyes are exposed."

It's true that you Guifei is beautiful, but she has been in the palace for so many years, and the years have left traces on her face.

Meng Li said with no expression on his face, but he couldn't help but gloat.

I also think it's funny. I'm a little more daring. I'm a little bit more advanced. I'm going to block my mouth with a handkerchief.

You Guifei's face froze for a while, and she didn't know whether to maintain the fake smile on her face.

"It must be a matter of universal celebration for the prince to choose his concubine. Naturally, I feel happy."

You Guifei said with a smile.

Meng Li didn't answer, but continued:

"sister, you see the fine lines in the corner of your eyes are more obvious. Here is a box of beauty cream in our palace. It works well. I'll give it to you?"

Princess you was so angry that she said:

"empress, it seems that you are older."

Meng Li picks eyebrows:

"how?"

She touched her face with her hand and said to you:

"if you don't smile in front of us all day long, we won't say that about you. We don't want to listen to you. Do you really take it as fun?"

You Guifei stares at Meng Li and doesn't smile.

Meng Li said:

"yes, that's it. It looks better like a cold beauty."

Meng Li didn't want to hear it. The client was willing to fight with you Guifei, but she didn't like it.

I'd rather princess you saw her with a dirty face.

In the plot, when the client is down, you Guifei is the most ruthless.

You Guifei was even more arrogant in private, and she was the only one in the palace who dared to speak to the queen like this. In fact, all these came from Qi chesheng's connivance.

The consignor has the means to punish the concubine, but Qi chesheng won't let her.

As a matter of fact, Qi Chee Sheng knew that the two palaces were fighting each other, but the emperor also had feelings for the second prince. The palm and the back of his hand were all flesh. It was not true that he only favored Qi Youyang's son.

Meng Li thinks that you Guifei is very successful as a double.

After all, Qi Ze Sheng now almost takes the fake as the real one.

"The empress really..."

Princess you gnashed her teeth, but she didn't finish what she said.

The atmosphere in the whole hall condenses down, and those who used to cover their mouths and laugh dare not laugh any more.

Meng Li said faintly:

"OK, it's OK. Let's go back and have a rest."

The concubines left.

The most popular female official Zhiqiu in front of the client came.

She said to Meng Li:

"master, all the portraits have been collected. It's time to show them to his royal highness."

She was followed by a tray with portraits in it.

Zhiqiu said:

"master, would you like to have a look at your highness first?"

If the queen does not like the woman, directly out on the line.

Meng Li nodded and said:

"OK, let me have a look."

Zhiqiu asked people to set up the portraits one by one. Meng Li looked at them one by one and asked:

"can the Secretary's daughter be in it?"

The eunuch next to him was stunned for a moment and bowed forward to answer:

"yes, madam."

Meng Li said:

"find out the girl and show it to our palace."

The eunuch was in charge of this. Menqing soon found out the portrait of the Secretary's daughter.

Meng Li took the picture and looked at it for a while, then said:

"you don't need to send this to the prince."

The eunuch asked:

"but what's the matter with the empress?"

Meng Li shook his head and said:

"no, you don't want to do anything on your own." Meng Li's eyes were sharp.

The eunuch's body went down even more, and even said that he knew.

Meng Li looks at the woman in the portrait for a while. This is the trustor's own daughter. The portrait is not real, and he doesn't know if it's because of preconceived ideas. Meng Li thinks that the child's eyebrows are similar to the trustor's.

Even to the prince to see the opportunity not to give, although the plot did not choose the child, but Meng Li or careful buckle down her portrait.

She couldn't help sneering. She was her own daughter, and she was willing to give it away to others.Another female official came in. She saluted Meng Li, and then said:

"Niang Niang, the emperor went down to court and said that he would wait for Niang Niang in the gilt Pavilion. At that time, his royal highness would also be there. The emperor asked Niang Niang to prepare the portrait."

Meng Li nodded and said:

"OK."

She went back to her bedroom, cleaned up and headed for the gilded palace.

By the time she arrived, Qi Zesheng had not yet arrived, but Qi Youyang had arrived.

At the age of 15, he was still young. When he met Meng Li, he quickly saluted and said, "please say hello to my mother."

He bowed.

Meng Li did not say to get up, but asked:

"how is your highness doing in the prince's mansion?"

"Thanks for your mother's concern. Everything is fine."

"Did you learn from Taifu?"

"I dare not slack off." The prince said quickly.

Meng Li said: "get up, mother, you are very tired."

The prince rises up and starts to talk with Meng Li. Meng Li's cold attitude makes Qi Youyang wonder why her mother is so cold to him today.

He asked cautiously:

"mother, what have you done wrong?"

Meng Li looked at Qi Youyang kindly and said:

"where does the prince want to go? In the twinkling of an eye, the mother thought that the prince would grow up. Now she is going to choose a concubine. It's a happy event, but..."

Meng Li sighed.

Qi Youyang was a little shy when he heard Meng Li say this, and then said:

"the mother, no matter what the children, is the mother's children."

Meng Li pulled out a standard and dignified smile.

Here comes Qi Zesheng.

As he entered the pavilion, Meng Li glanced at Qi.

Now Qi Chee Sheng is not a high spirited teenager.

Instead, he became a middle-aged mature man with a little beard.

The whole person has a kind of dignity, which is the temperament of the emperor these years.

Although Qi did not make great achievements, he did not make the country miserable.

As for the work of emperor, Qi Ze Sheng did a good job.

When Qi chesheng came to him, Meng Li saluted slightly. Qi chesheng gave Meng Li a hand and said, "get up."

"Thank you, sir." Meng Li said softly.

Instead of talking to Meng Li, Qi Chih Sheng looked at the prince and said, "do you have someone in mind?"

The prince's expression immediately became tense, and Qi Chee Sheng knew that the prince had already had a crush on him. He could not help nodding his head and saying, "whoever you like, I will canonize him as the future Princess."

Qi did not even ask the prince who he liked, what his family background was or what he looked like.

It's just willful.
