Chapter 865 Are You Asking Me to Keep It for You?
The emperor's eyes fell coldly on Shao Wanru, and the powerful aura suppressed her. Even though she lowered her head, she could feel the emperor's deep displeasure.
Shao Wanru shook the handkerchief in his hand, wondering where he had offended the emperor.
The queen was secretly happy when she saw it. She could see that the emperor didn't like Shao Wanru, so that was fine! It’s better if you don’t like it! The corners of her lips curled up, and she said softly: "Although Miss Shao Wu is a little younger, she is also a steady and decent person, and she didn't make much trouble just now!"
There was not much fuss, but it must have happened anyway. Remembering what the two concubines said before, saying that Shao Wanru was mocking them, the emperor's displeasure became even stronger.
From the looks of it, he is also a troublemaker.
"It wasn't much trouble, but it was? Queen, tell me, why did she make trouble just now?" Chu Liuchen asked with interest, with a smile on his beautiful face and bright eyes.
The Empress choked, that's what she said, but to be specific, Shao Wanru didn't actually say a few words just now, so how could it be called making trouble.
After smiling dryly, the Queen said: "It's not a big deal, Miss Shao Wu is still young!"
This means that since I was young, it was indeed not a big deal if I made a fuss, but I didn’t say anything about the fuss itself.
"I am curious about how she made such a fuss. After three years of pure cultivation in the nunnery, it is said that no matter how noisy she is, no one can make a fuss." Chu Liuchen rolled his eyes and smiled.
The smile on the Queen's face was a bit unbearable. She had been cultivating for three years. If she was really a hot-tempered person, she would not be able to bear the coldness and hardship. Shao Wanru could be cultivating in the mountains for so long at such a young age, which shows that he is a determined person. Yes, definitely not in terms of being young and making trouble.
The Emperor glanced at the Queen calmly, with a trace of sadness flashing in his eyes.
It's one thing that he doesn't like it, but he doesn't like the Queen Empress suppressing Shao Wanru. Now that the marriage has been arranged, Shao Wanru's face is Chu Liuchen's face. On this point, the Emperor will not let the Empress suppress Shao Wanru. Like.
Moreover, if he can survive three years in the nunnery, he should not be noisy. Chu Liuchen is not in good health. He is afraid that he will not be able to withstand such a noisy one. Maybe he just looks more charming.
Thinking of this, the emperor's image of Shao Wanru changed slightly in his mind.
"It is indeed a good thing to be able to stay in the nunnery for three years and observe filial piety for your parents. The Queen will be rewarded for it!" the emperor said.
The empress did not dare to disobey and could only nod softly: "I have exactly what I want. Miss Shao Wu is very much in line with my wishes. She had wanted to reward me with some ornaments before!"
The queen summoned these people, and she really wanted to appreciate the jewelry today. After hearing what she said, the eldest maid behind her understood and clapped her hands twice.
Immediately, several palace maids came over from the side door. Each of them held a beautiful box in their hands, with dragons and phoenixes carved on it. It was obvious at a glance that it belonged to the palace.
"Your Majesty, this is a gift prepared by my concubines for them. It was originally meant to be a reward to them." The Queen pointed her hand.
The palace maids were divided into two rows, three in the front and two in the back. The decoration boxes in the front were larger and the ones in the back were smaller. The three princes had three concubines. Chu Liuchen had no concubines, so the two at the back should be for the two concubines. Concubine's.
Seeing that the Queen made the distinction so clearly and detailedly, it was obvious that she took it seriously. A faint smile appeared on the Emperor's face, and he nodded, expressing his appreciation for the Queen.
The Queen smiled and asked the palace maids to send their respective jewelry boxes over. A palace maid stood in front of Shao Wanru, holding the box in her hand high above her head, respectfully.
Several people hurriedly knelt down to thank each other!
"This palace and the emperor have prepared this for you. Originally, I came to the palace this time to announce that you would come and have a look. From now on, you will marry into the royal family and live a good life with your respective princes. You must not have vain thoughts. If this is the case, , what’s waiting for you is not this gorgeous jewelry!”
The Queen's face was solemn and majestic, and the warning in her words was obvious, so today she called them here to warn them.
Shao Wanru rolled his eyes and understood the meaning, and immediately joined everyone in thanking him.
After they finished bowing, the Queen asked someone to help them up and sit down again.
The people in the palace opened the jewelry box in their hands, and a burst of jewels and jewels made everyone's eyes gleam. At a glance, they knew that it was not an ordinary object.
"These are all specially made by this palace for you to add to your makeup." Seeing that they were all shocked, the queen said gracefully with a smile on her face.
Shao Wanru's eyes fell on a Huasheng. The Huasheng she had just seen before appeared in front of her. Although it was the one that was pushed down the bottom, it was almost the same Huasheng, making her recognize it at a glance. , which is almost exactly the same as the one Chu Liuchen gave to him.
Isn't this kind of thing only the queen can wear? How could it appear in the brocade box given to me?
There were a lot of jewelry in the box, almost full. Huasheng was at the bottom. If she hadn't looked at it carefully before, she wouldn't have been able to tell for a while. Although Huasheng was expensive, this one The other jewelry in the box are equally gorgeous, you can't tell them apart.
Her long eyelashes fluttered twice, and she calmly raised her eyes to look at Chu Liuchen, only to see the corners of his handsome lips curled up slightly, as if he was in a good mood, and his eyes were dark and deep.
After thinking about it, Shao Wanru walked up to Chu Liuchen and bowed deeply.
"What's wrong with Miss Shao Wu?" Chu Liuchen asked lazily.
"I don't dare to accept such a valuable item as the queen." Shao Wanru said with an embarrassed look on his face, his voice low.
, but everyone around heard it, and the ladies who were about to reach out for the jewelry box with joy became embarrassed.
This seemed like they were too hasty.
"You don't like it?" Chu Liuchen's voice was not high, but even though it was not high, everyone heard it, and felt that his voice was gentler.
Qi Ronzhi looked at Shao Wanru, then at Chu Liuchen, and pursed her lips.
She actually didn't want to get close to Shao Wanru.
"How can you not be happy with the gift from the Queen!" Shao Wanru said with a blush on his face, but still sent the brocade box in his hand, but he didn't seem to know what to say, and he stuttered a bit, "... "
But Chu Liuchen seemed to understand, and stretched out his hand to catch the jewelry box, "You want me to keep it for you? Well, then I'll just do it reluctantly!"
After saying that the jewelry box had fallen into his hands, Shao Wanru's face became more and more shy, and the blush covered her delicate little face, which made people feel more and more gorgeous and beautiful.
The Empress looked at the scene in front of her with almost astonishment. She thought that Shao Wanru would refuse, but she didn't expect that Shao Wanru would directly give the jewelry box to Chu Liuchen.
"Miss Shao Wu, don't you like what I've given you?" The Queen's face looked a little unhappy.
"My daughter likes it very much." Shao Wanru shook his head and explained in a low voice, looking a little shy and embarrassed to say it.
Of course, the things given by the Queen are not something that can be thrown away if you want. One of the disadvantages is that it is a crime of contempt for the royal family. Shao Wanru will not be so blind and say such things. Besides, the emperor is still here, she can sense it. The emperor didn't have a very good impression of her!
"Since you like it, why didn't you take it away and send it to King Chen?" The Queen's face was completely cold. If Shao Wanru didn't give a reasonable explanation, she would punish Shao Wanru even if the emperor was here.
"To report to the Queen, actually..." Shao Wanru looked more and more embarrassed, "The prince also gave some gifts before, and I... had them all sent back, so that the prince could keep them first..."
Before he finished speaking, Shao Wanru was already blushing.
The emperor understood. He looked at the charming and elegant girl, who looked shy and blushing, and then looked at his handsome nephew, who looked like he was taking it for granted, and suddenly burst out laughing.
"Okay...okay!" He complimented casually. Of course the emperor was willing to see his nephew gain the upper hand. This meant that everything was centered on his nephew. Sure enough, it was just a flattering look. In fact, he was nothing. A little girl who doesn’t understand, otherwise she wouldn’t do such a thing.
If there are good things, it is a good habit to let your fiancé collect them for you first instead of collecting them yourself.
The Queen's lips curved down, and it looked like she was smiling, but in fact she couldn't smile at all. After the Emperor finished laughing, she said softly: "Jewelry is originally a woman's responsibility." "Things, His Highness King Chen has many things to worry about. Besides, he is not in good health. How can we trouble him with these matters? What's more, the two of you haven't..."
When the Empress said this, she glanced at Chu Liuchen, saving face for Chu Liuchen, but everyone could understand the meaning of her words. It meant that the two had an affair before they were married, implying that Shao Wanru's Bad character.
Chu Liuchen lazily answered: "Empress, my marriage to Miss Shao Wu was arranged early, but it was not announced. Even if we met a few times and exchanged a few words, it would not be announced. It should be nothing! The Imperial Grandmother gave many things to Miss Shao Wu before. It was inconvenient for her to be in the nunnery at that time, so she put them all in my palace!"
Even the Queen Mother acquiesced in their relationship, and the Queen Mother seemed to be deliberately provoking the Queen Mother.
Didn't we just get married if we made the agreement early? Qi Ronzhi's eyes tightened.
"The jewelry given by the Empress is really good. I will keep it for you when I get back!" After Chu Liuchen finished speaking, he didn't even look at the angry Empress who turned pale. He picked up the jewelry box and weighed it in his hands. Without thinking about it, the jewelry box in his hand fell down. The exquisite jewelry was scattered on the floor, and even broken jewelry was included.
The most conspicuous among them is an exquisite Huasheng, with slender and exquisite gold, gorgeous and sparkling jewelry, and a dazzling phoenix shape on it...
