Chapter 44 Sealed Concubine Li
Duke Wei kept scolding the queen in his heart, he didn't even know why this daughter became so stupid.

It was obviously something that Dayu Kingdom and the Haiqing Department had agreed on a long time ago, but now it was just a formality, why did the queen come out to disturb the situation?

Besides, even if Hai Lizhu was made a concubine, it was just a lot of women in the harem, and there was no conflict with the queen's interests, so why couldn't she tolerate a single woman?
Moreover, what does it mean to confront General Qu on such an occasion?Don't you think you don't have enough embarrassment?

Although Wei Guogong scolded the queen in his heart, he hated Qu Chu even more.She felt that she didn't know good from bad, and didn't care about the face of the queen and him at all.

Therefore, when Wei Gongguo sat on his seat, he glanced at Qu Chu secretly, his eyes were full of disgust.

……

The Queen is being used.

Yesterday, by coincidence, several concubines from the harem ran into the queen's palace, bragging how beautiful Hai Lizhu was, how much Hai Lizhu would be favored after entering the palace, and said that it would affect the emperor's establishment of the heir.

How could the queen not be angry after hearing such words?
It is not too much to see the queen not being favored, but how can the queen not be scrupled when it comes to the matter of establishing a crown prince?
……

After hearing Duke Wei's words, Ning Youbei continued to smooth things over: "Since Duke Wei also thinks this is a good thing, I think Brother Huang should accept Haiqing's kindness!"

Prime Minister Fang knew it was time for him to express his opinion.

He stood up, "King Chu is right, I think your Majesty might as well make Hai Lizhu a concubine to show the sincerity of Dayu Kingdom."

With the statements of Duke Wei and Prime Minister Fang, other courtiers also stood up to speak out one after another.It's all about letting the emperor accept this good thing.

The emperor coughed lightly:
"Since all the ministers have said this, I also think that I should take practical actions to express my determination to make friends with the Haiqing Department.

I plan to designate Hai Lizhu as my concubine Li, and confer the first-class gold book. "

Hai Lizhu stood up from her seat, went to the middle of the hall and knelt down: "My concubine, Hai Lizhu, thank Your Majesty for the reward."

Qu Chu also got up from his seat and knelt in the middle of the hall: "Your Majesty, I want to beg for Concubine Li."

"General Qu, please speak up and speak directly."

Qu Chu stood up.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Li grew up in the Haiqing Department. Her environment is different from that of Dayu Country. Her behavior and temperament are naturally different from Dayu Country girls. If she breaks the palace rules in the future, please forgive me." Your Majesty will personally teach her for the sake of the good relationship between the Haiqing Department and the Dayu Kingdom."

The Queen hesitated again.

What Qu Chu said did not make it clear: "If Concubine Li makes a mistake in the future, Queen, you can't deal with it casually."

The emperor also understood the meaning of Qu Chu's words, but he thought about the queen's character, he was indeed domineering, and today she was angry because of Concubine Li, she must get it back.

If she really caught Concubine Li's small mistake and did not let go, and let Concubine Li be severely punished, wouldn't it be against the original intention of the friendship between the Dayu Kingdom and the Haiqing Clan?

After thinking about this joint, the emperor said:
"General Qu is very worried. I should give Concubine Li some time to adapt to Dayu Kingdom. I will personally arrange for a nanny to teach Li Concubine so that she can adapt to life in Dayu Kingdom as soon as possible."

The emperor's words did not explicitly agree to Qu Chu's request, but he also indicated to the envoys of the Haiqing clan that he would take care of Concubine Li.

The envoy of the Haiqing tribe also understood what the emperor meant, and hurriedly bowed to thank the emperor.Thanks again to Chu Chu.

If other officials were to intercede for Hai Lizhu, they might be accused of being different from men and women, but Qu Chu didn't have to worry about this at all.

As for Qu Chu collaborating with the enemy, Qu Chu was even more unafraid, she was doing it for the friendship between the Dayu Kingdom and the Haiqing Department.

……

The banquet that followed was full of laughter and harmony.

Ning Youbei looked at Qu Chu, "Ah Chu, would you like to offer Aunt Anping a glass of wine with me?"

Qu Chu thought about what Ning Youbei said before, saying that he survived when he was a child because of the care of Princess Anping, so he nodded.

Ning Youbei was overjoyed.

He never thought that Qu Chu would agree.His twinkling peach blossom eyes looked at Qu Chu affectionately, "Ah Chu, you are so kind!"

Qu Chu slightly moved his eyes, and said sullenly, "Are you still going? So much nonsense."

Ning Youbei reached out to hold Qu Chu's hand, but Qu Chu avoided it with a flick of his hand.Ning Youbei didn't force it, he took the wine glass and went to Princess Anping.

Looking at the two people in front of her, Princess Anping showed a meaningful smile.

She was born in the palace, and she was used to seeing all kinds of conspiracies and tricks. Although she didn't like it, she was able to handle it with ease.

At the beginning, she only took care of Ning Youbei for the sake of Concubine Chen's kindness, and she never thought that there would be reciprocation in the future.

Unexpectedly, the emperor and Youbei are good boys, loving and righteous.Now that General Qu has become the princess of Youbei, it couldn't be better.

Princess Anping doesn't look at Qu Chu with a worldly eye like others, and never thinks that women should be weak, dignified and respectful.

She believes that as long as the power is in hand, both men and women have the right to speak.

Like herself.

The same is true of General Qu.

She has military merits and hundreds of thousands of troops in her hands, who can do anything to her?
And when she married Youbei, these troops became the emperor's in disguise, which is nothing better than anything else!
"Auntie, I will toast you with Ah Chu."

After Ning Youbei finished speaking, he drank the wine, and Qu Chu raised his glass to motion to Princess Anping and finished it.

Princess Anping drank the wine with a smile.

The expression on Qu Chu's face softened by two points. The Princess Anping in front of her was different from the others. She had no prejudice against her and didn't think she was a good woman.

Although Qu Chu didn't care about those gossips and strange eyes, it was not a pleasant thing after all.She feels good now that someone looks at her without prejudice.

After toasting, Ning Youbei and Qu Chu returned to their seats.

Princess Anping looked at their backs and smiled even more happily.

Judging from her eyes, Youbei has affection for General Qu in his heart. He doesn't know it, but the affection in his eyes cannot be faked.

As long as Youbei himself doesn't mind what General Qu should do, what do other people's gossip mean?
Moreover, General Qu treats You Bei differently, otherwise she would not have come to toast her with her cold and hard style.

General Qu is not a person who succumbs to some kind of force!

"Mother, what is so funny?"

For the person who suddenly appeared beside her, Princess Anping gave him a blank look:
"Ming Yu, Youbei already has a princess, when will you find a wife? Do you really want to be innocent for the rest of your life?"

Deng Mingyu saw that his tigress was repeating the same old story, so he hurried to leave.

……

That night, the emperor rested in Concubine Li Palace.

Concubine Li's palace has been prepared long ago, except for the two personal maids she brought, the rest are fully equipped with maids and internal servants as a first-class concubine.
