Second marriage to the regent

He Ning herself was not interested in this man. After all, people from the Western Regions warned her before coming to Tianzhao that she should stay away from Li Junyi. This was very dangerous.

Therefore, she will not risk her life.

"Yi'er, today is a banquet hosted by your father. Do you have any talents to show off?" The Queen knew that Li Kunyi's injury had recovered, so naturally she wanted her son to perform well while He Ning was present.

Concubine De didn't show any weakness and said, "Jun'er, haven't you learned some moves from General Jiang recently? Why don't you show them to your father?"

Li Jun immediately stood up and came to the center of the stage. He bowed and said, "Father, my son has only learned a little bit. I just want to please my father and let General Jiang see the results of what I have learned."

General Jiang Zhou laughed awkwardly and said, "I'm really looking forward to it!"

Under the gaze of everyone, Li Jun began to squat down and gesture in the air with his bare hands.

Although his movements seemed a bit clumsy, every palm he launched was extremely powerful. As his movements changed speed in Taichung, afterimages gradually appeared on his body, which amazed onlookers.

"I haven't seen this King of Changle for a few days, but he has such good fortune. He deserves to be General Jiang!"

"Yes, this skill has improved so quickly, there are not many in this capital."

"As expected of someone I, Wang, have high hopes for, he is indeed extraordinary!"

Listening to the ministers talking among themselves below, all praising Li Jun's words, it was exactly as Concubine De expected, and the smile on her lips was hard to hide.

But some people are happy to be popular. The Queen's eyes were full of dissatisfaction. She originally thought that Li Kun could also shine, but who would have thought that Li Jun would steal the limelight with his stupid head.

Seeing the empress's angry look, Concubine De became even more showy and wanton.

Seeing this, Concubine Xian took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire and said: "King Changle is really an eye-opener. I don't know who in the palace has heard that King Changle is not good at martial arts. This palace is looking at it, why is it different?"

"Concubine Xian is joking, how can I trust the rumors in the palace? You and I have been living in the palace for a long time, how can we still believe what those ignorant people say?" Concubine De pointed at Sang and scolded Huai.

Concubine Xian responded with a half-smile: "I am foolish. It's time to get out of my own little world and meet more sisters."

After Li Jun's performance, the audience burst into cheers and the applause was deafening. Seeing this scene, Li Jun felt very relieved that what he had learned had finally been rewarded accordingly.

The emperor was very happy when he saw Li Jun's performance just now, and said with a smile: "Jun'er really did not disappoint my father, reward me!"

"Thank you, father!" Li Jun smiled from ear to ear.

Li Feng originally planned to show it off in front of everyone at the banquet to win over the ministers.But now that Li Jun is in the limelight, he doesn't know if he should go on stage to perform.

When he looked at Concubine Xian, Concubine Xian shook her head to signal him not to act rashly.

The emperor also noticed Li Feng sitting beside him and asked, "Do you want to show Feng'er?"

Li Feng stood up with difficulty and said awkwardly: "My son's injury has not recovered yet. The imperial doctor said that he needs to rest, so he can no longer wield swords or guns. I hope my father will calm down."

The emperor saw that he was struggling to even stand up, so he didn't make it difficult for him and said: "Since your body has not recovered yet, just listen to the doctor and rest well."

Li Feng nodded and sat down.

Seeing that her son had no rival, Concubine De looked at him with contempt.The empress looked at her son indifferently, suppressing a fire in her heart. She did not see Li Kunyi again until the banquet was over.

Seeing that the Queen was still angry, Xiu Niang persuaded her from behind: "Queen, calm down and take care of your body."

"None of my two children bring honor to my face. How can I not be angry with you!"

She originally thought that her children could all achieve great things, but one of them was always disobeying her will, while the other was obedient. She couldn't understand that when she entered the palace, she would be the queen, the most noble woman in the world, but she would give birth to two unworthy children. Something to strive for.

"Concubine De is stealing the limelight today. The Crown Prince doesn't want to refute the Emperor's elegance. If the Crown Prince and King Changle get into trouble today, wouldn't it be a slap in the Emperor's face? The Crown Prince is far-sighted and was cultivated by the Queen. He should be more careful I believe in the prince’s ability.”

After listening to Xiu Niang's explanation, the Queen's mood improved slightly and she ordered: "Tell the prince that you have had little contact with that girl from the Chang family in recent days. She is not young anymore. If she goes in and out of the prince's house frequently, she will be harassed by others. gossip."

Xiu Niang understood that the Queen still cared about what He Ning said at the banquet just now. This was no different from the emperor's promise to the Queen, but who could have imagined what would happen in the future?

The queen is just trying to stabilize He Ning now. When the two get married, won't they have to listen to her husband's family on everything?
But for the time being, I have to aggrieve Chang Juerou.

常府
Chang Juerou was not angry or dissatisfied after hearing what Xiu Niang said. Instead, she said very sensibly: "The Queen is very happy to consider Rou'er for Rou'er. She also asked my aunt to go back and tell the Queen that the prince's brother The matter is more important than anything else, Rou'er will not mess up the matter."

Then he said with a serious face: "Rou'er can afford to wait."

She is still young, and I know that if I want to have a place in the palace, I must rely on the Queen. She will naturally not make the Queen unhappy.

She also knew that men always had wives and concubines, but as long as Li Kunyi had her in his heart, she would have no regrets.

Seeing the sensible and well-behaved Chang Juerou, Xiu Niang was also very satisfied. She deserved to have grown up beside the Queen. Her demeanor and vision were really different from others.

After the embroiderer left, the maid looked at Chang Juerou worriedly and said, "Miss, what about these clothes..."

In the past few days, apart from taking care of the injured Li Kunyi at the Prince's Mansion, Jierou had come to personally make clothes for him. But now that the Empress asked her to go less often to the Prince's Mansion, wouldn't she be wasting all her hard work?

Chang Juerou looked at the finished clothes on the table, sighed with regret, and said: "Some of the clothes are not perfect enough. I will improve them and make them more comfortable for the prince brother."

Her mental endurance is very strong, and she will not break her defense just because of such a trivial matter.

Jing'an Hou Mansion
"Old lady, the mistress is back!"

A maid ran into the old lady's yard without stopping. After hearing the news, the old lady immediately went out to greet her.

"Xi'er is back!" The old lady excitedly took Su Junxi's hand and saw that her face was rosy and shiny, and she didn't look injured at all. It seemed that Mrs. Anguo had taken good care of her daughter, and she was willing to Coming back made the old lady very happy.

Su Junxi helped the old lady into the front hall and said, "It's windy outside, and grandma is worried about getting cold."

The old lady gently patted the back of Su Junxi's hand and said with a smile, "I still care about grandma!"

"Grandma, where are you? Everyone in the house cares about you. You are the person who can be honored by the Marquis."

Su Junxi knew that Ye was dissatisfied with this, but she wanted to rub salt into his wounds. (End of chapter)
