After the gourds became refined, farming made a fortune and exploded in another world

Chapter 167 Envy, Jealousy, Hate

Lingrou is just a princess, she has no title, let alone merits, and her status is not a queen's, so she can only bow on her knees.

"Let's get back together! Today is the welcome banquet for my daughter's return. I just came here to have a look around, so please sit down." Emperor Jiaming smiled kindly.

Concubine Zeng followed Emperor Jia Ming a step away, surrounded by a group of maids.

Concubine Zeng wore a gorgeous dark red long dress today, with intricate patterns and exquisite embroidery, showing nobility everywhere.

Now that he is over forty years old, his face is well maintained and his makeup is gorgeous.

It looks like he is just in his early 30s, with exquisite appearance and charm, and he looks very young.

Concubine Zeng sat down with Emperor Jia Ming, looked around, and saw Nan Xi.

There was imperceptible arrogance and disdain in his eyes, "Is this Xixi? She is indeed the daughter of the former empress, and she is as beautiful and generous as the former empress. Your Majesty, Xixi just came back, and I liked her when I saw her."

With a smile on his face, he actually hides a knife secretly.

Who doesn't know that it is a taboo for the first queen to be in the palace?

The woman the emperor is least willing to mention is the first queen?
Now Concubine Zeng deliberately mentions the former empress in order to make Nanxi feel disgusted by Emperor Jiaming.

Sure enough, when Emperor Jiaming saw her mentioning the former empress, his face was instantly displeased, "It is very similar to the former empress, Xixi, your wedding is coming soon, after the banquet, stay in the mansion to prepare for the marriage, if you need anything Come find me."

Nan Xi didn't react much when he heard his words, "Father, my son doesn't need anything. The marriage affairs are handled by the Ministry of Rites, and my son just waits in the mansion."

He said this in a tone as if the person who got married was not her.

Seeing that she had completely ignored her, the noble concubine felt depressed. This woman brought her back alive, so don't blame her for taking care of her here.

Who made her have the same face as the former queen?

Back then, she and the emperor were childhood sweethearts, and the two of them had the same heart. That bitch Nan Yuhuang took advantage of the power of the Nan family army to take the position of queen, and she could only be a concubine.

Even if she is a husband, what can she do if she gives birth to the emperor's child?Up to now, she is still just a noble concubine.

"Xixi, I heard that you have suffered a lot in the countryside, and you don't even understand the rules and etiquette in the palace." Concubine Zeng looked at the emperor, "Your Majesty, let Xixi live in the concubine's palace for a while. The concubine fell in love with her the first time she saw her, and let her live in the concubine's palace, so that she could be taught the rules and etiquette in the palace, so as to save her from being laughed at when they got married."

In her palace, she has plenty of ways to deal with her!

Emperor Jiaming nodded in agreement, "Alright!"

"Aijia disagrees!" A voice sounded from outside the flower hall.

The sound fell, and there was a silence in the flower hall.

I saw the queen mother walked into the flower hall surrounded by a group of people.

"I have seen the queen mother!" Everyone saluted one after another.

It was just a simple reception banquet, but the queen mother also came, Nan Xi is so proud of her!

"Queen mother, why are you here?" the emperor stood up and supported the queen mother.

The imperial concubine also saluted, her face was very ugly, why did this old man come out today?
Hasn't she been meditating in the Buddhist hall all these years?Every time she went to pay her respects, she was sent back, and she was never able to see her even if she wanted to, and she was not notified of today's banquet, so she went out of the Buddhist hall by herself.

"Of course the Ai family is coming. I heard that the granddaughter of the Ai family is back! Why didn't you inform the Ai family?" The queen mother scolded the emperor.

"It's my son, isn't the queen mother meditating in the Buddhist hall? My son dare not disturb you." Emperor Jia Ming felt uncomfortable.

In the past, as a mother queen, she loved Yuhuang very much, but now she loves Yuhuang's child even more, and she is dissatisfied with him in various ways.

"The granddaughter of Ai's family is back. How can you call it an interruption if you report it? It's because you are a bad father." The Queen Mother didn't want to talk to him.

"Yes! It's my servant's fault." Emperor Jia Ming could only agree.

The queen mother searched among the crowd, and the moment she saw Nan Xi, her face was full of surprise.

"Xixi, grandma has finally found you." Among the noble ladies in the flower hall, the Queen Mother recognized Nan Xi at a glance.

Nan Xi's appearance was so similar to that of the former empress, she recognized it immediately.

Nan Xi was grabbed by her hand, and a warm current surged into her heart. The empress dowager's love for her was not fake.

There is a faint white mist on the head of this empress dowager, and there are gold threads mixed in it, which shows that this empress dowager is a kind-hearted person.

"Granddaughter met grandmother." Nan Xi knelt down and saluted after saying that.

When she meets someone who really loves her, she doesn't mind kneeling down to salute.

"Get up! Get up! Let grandma take a good look. How many years have passed? Grandma has thought about it for so many years. She thought that grandma would never see you again. I never thought that grandma would see you when she was alive." The queen mother said He spoke with a choked voice.

Nan Xi also smiled like a child, "Grandmother, you will live a long life. Isn't your granddaughter back now? Granddaughter must be filial to grandma."

"Okay! Grandmother is waiting for Xixi to be filial." The Queen Mother held Nanxi's hand reluctantly, looked at Emperor Jiaming and the noble ladies in the room, "Your Majesty, why did you hear that someone arranged for Aijia?" Is the granddaughter a mud leg? You also said that the first queen was not born well, and the granddaughter of the Ai family is not as good as a concubine? How do these ministers teach their daughters?"

All the noble ladies turned pale with fright, how did the Empress Dowager know what they said?

It's over!

The Empress Dowager has always been kind, and even the palace servants who made mistakes were only lightly punished, but the methods of the Empress Dowager were really terrible when they touched the Empress Dowager's bottom line.

The imperial concubine came out with a smile to smooth things over at this time, "Queen Mother, these are all children's jokes, I believe Xixi won't take it to heart, am I right, Xixi?"

His eyes swept over Nan Xi, and the warning was very obvious.

Nan Xi pretended not to notice the imperial concubine's eyes, and looked at the queen mother with aggrieved eyes.

Still thinking of threatening her?Then she will pretend to show you.

The queen mother looked worried, "Concubine, how can you say such nonsense? Among the noble ladies here, who is younger than Xixi? How can a noble lady who can say such words have better family rules? If your children can’t be taught well, don’t always come out and make a fool of yourself.”

The Empress Dowager did not give the imperial concubine any face, she has always looked down on this woman.

This woman has been scheming and scheming since she was a child, and now she has become even more serious. This kind of woman is also considered good by the emperor!
Concubine Zeng Guifei's face was pale, and she was dying of resentment in her heart, "The concubine knows."

"It's good to know." The queen mother stopped looking at her, and turned her head to look at Nan Xi with distress.

"Grandmother, they say that my mother's background is unknown and her background is humble, and my status is not as noble as a concubine's daughter. Grandmother, are my mother and I really so unbearable?" Nan Xi's aggrieved eyes filled with tears.

It seems that he has completely changed his aura from the aura he just had.

The Empress Dowager felt even more distressed, thinking that the child had disappeared since she was a child, lived in the countryside, and grew up without knowing how much it was. Now that she has just returned, there are so many people targeting her, how can she not be angry?
The noble girl who said that the former queen's background was unknown, was so frightened that she fainted on the spot.

The rest of the noble girls were all too frightened to say a word.
