Killer Pretty Queen

Chapter 026

Early the next morning, Xiao Li came to Prime Minister Yuwen's residence.Because everyone separated from each other in the mid-autumn night, but failed to get together in the end.So today, Xiao Li came here specially to visit the two sisters.

But depending on the situation, the Yuwen sisters' trip to the Lantern Festival was really exhausting.However, compared to Xiao Li, they seemed to be much more excited.

"A Li, did you see it the night before yesterday? I really didn't expect that Lord Wu's dancing skills have reached the level of the world, and with the cooperation of Miss Saijun, almost all the people present at that time were excited. "Yuwen Ruocai described the situation to Xiaoli with envy on her face, while Yuwen Ruoxue who was sitting beside her had a faint smile on her face.

After hearing this, Xiao Li could only laugh along with them, after all, she never saw what Yuwen Ruocai said.

At lunch time, a report came from the front hall, saying that someone from the palace had come to deliver the decree, and Madam and the two young ladies were invited to receive the decree.

A group of people went to the courtyard and knelt down to receive the order, but it turned out that the person who came to deliver the order was actually the Seventh Prince.

Only after the imperial decree was read out did Xiao Li realize that the eighteenth day of the eighth month is the current queen's birthday.And this year, it's her 48th birthday.

As the Queen's birthday, Mrs. Yuwen, as the Princess of the Ling Kingdom, naturally had to attend. Even the two Yuwen sisters would inevitably follow their mother into the palace.

As soon as he talked about entering the palace, Yuwen Ruocai couldn't help but get excited again: "A Li, after you came back, you haven't played in the palace yet, have you? Why don't you wait until tomorrow and come with us. When the time comes, you will follow us and go to the emperor's uncle's imperial garden to have fun together."

The Seventh Prince couldn't help smiling at them when he heard this: "Don't worry, A Cai, the Queen Mother's birthday will naturally invite the General's wife to the palace for the banquet. So tomorrow, Miss Li'er and you will naturally have a chance You can go to the royal garden of the father to have a good time. At that time, the prince can be your guide, how about taking you to see the newly cultivated five-color chrysanthemum this year?"

"Okay, okay, we've made a deal." Yuwen Ruocai was very happy to hear that.

Since they will be entering the palace early tomorrow morning, Mrs. Yuwen and sisters A Cai must tidy up carefully.Seeing this situation, Xiao Li naturally left in advance and returned to the general's mansion.

Seeing that she was about to leave, the Seventh Prince couldn't help but smiled and stepped forward to tell Mrs. Yuwen that he also had other imperial edicts to pass on.So he bid farewell to the Prime Minister's Mansion with Xiao Li.

Out of the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Xiao Li turned around to say goodbye to the Seventh Prince, but she didn't want him to take a stride and stop in front of her: "Miss Li'er, go slowly, the prince has something to say to the young lady."

Xiao Li was very strange when he heard it, and couldn't help raising his head to look at him: "If the Seventh Prince has anything to say, you might as well just say it."

The Seventh Prince looked at her, hesitated for a while, and finally made up his mind when he saw Xiao Li frowned, and said to Xiao Li with a very careful smile: "This prince wants to ask something about Li'er. Miss Li'er's personal question, I wonder if Miss Li'er already has a sweetheart?"

Xiao Li couldn't help being taken aback when she heard this: "What does the Seventh Prince mean by this?"

The Seventh Prince blushed suddenly, but at this moment these words were already on the line, and he couldn't help but say it clearly.

No more hesitation, the Seventh Prince suddenly looked at Xiao Li seriously, and said: "Since this prince saw Miss Li'er for the first time, he couldn't help falling in love with you from the bottom of his heart. So, if Miss Li'er is willing If so, the prince wants to propose to the emperor to give Miss Li'er to the prince as a concubine. I don't know what Miss Li'er wants?"

Hearing what he said, Xiao Li felt that she blushed suddenly.It's not because of the Seventh Prince's words, but because of the Seventh Prince's words, which suddenly aroused her thoughts last night.

"Miss Li'er, did you hear clearly what the prince said just now?" Seeing her blushing, the Seventh Prince couldn't help showing a hint of excitement on his face: "If Miss Li'er doesn't object, then After returning to the palace today, I will first mention this matter to the queen mother, what do you think Miss Li'er would like?"

Suddenly realizing that her expression at this time might mislead the Seventh Prince, Xiao Li hurriedly withdrew her wandering thoughts: "Seventh Prince, wait a minute, I still have something to say."

"Miss Li'er has something to say, just say it to the prince." The face of the seventh prince was full of excitement at this time.But looking in Xiao Li's eyes, she couldn't help feeling a little headache.

"Well... how should I put it?" Xiao Li looked up at the seventh prince's suddenly nervous expression, and finally made up her mind.

Although she had never thought of it before, she would suddenly be valued by so many beautiful men like the heroine in a romance novel.But after all, she has the courageous and independent character of modern women.

No matter how these people all jumped up and said how much they liked her, but after all, she only had one person and one heart.It is even more impossible for her to fall in love with so many people at the same time.So—some things, we must act decisively.

"I'm sorry, Seventh Prince!" She tried her best to keep the expression on her face calm: "Although I am honored to be valued by you, this kind of thing is just like what the Seventh Prince said, it needs to be pleasing to each other. Happy."

The expression on the seventh prince's face suddenly changed: "Miss Li'er, are you...rejecting my prince's affection?"

Xiao Li could only give him an apologetic smile: "I'm really sorry... But, the Seventh Prince should also know that although some things can be forced, but only feelings are something that cannot be forced. I also don't want to disappoint the Seventh Prince, but..."

"So, Miss Li'er already has a sweetheart, right?" The Seventh Prince suddenly picked up the topic: "Can Miss Li'er tell this prince what kind of person he is?"

When Xiao Li heard it, she was suddenly taken aback: "My sweetheart...is that right?"Could it be that, in her heart, did she really regard him as her sweetheart?

"Miss Li'er..." The Seventh Prince was still waiting for her answer.

But Xiao Li could only give him a helpless smile: "Seventh prince, I just want to tell you that my daughter is not a perfect woman as you see in your eyes. So... Let Seventh Prince Disappointed, I can only feel sorry for you, my daughter-in-law."

After saying this, Xiao Li suddenly turned around and left, because she really couldn't let herself face the seventh prince's questioning eyes peacefully.

As soon as he returned to the mansion, he happened to run into Prince Wu Huangfu Haobo who was going out from the mansion of the Great General.

When Huangfu Haobo saw her, he seemed to feel very happy, he had already left behind the general who was by his side, and greeted Xiao Li with a smile: "Miss Li'er is back?"

Xiao Li looked at Huangfu Haobo, and had no choice but to bow and salute: "My daughter Xiao Li, I have met Prince Wu."

Huangfu Haobo hastily stretched out his hands to help her up: "Miss Li'er, don't need to be polite, get down quickly." Then he looked at Xiao Li affectionately and smiled: "I don't know that Miss Li'er is in the prime minister's residence today, but Have you received news from the palace?"

Xiao Li smiled at him indifferently: "Wu Wangye is talking about the empress's birthday?"

Huangbo Haobo smiled slightly, nodded and said: "That's right, this king is here today to pass on the first-grade order to Mrs. Xiao on behalf of the queen mother, and to bring Miss Li'er into the palace for a banquet tomorrow."

Xiao Li turned to Huangfu Hao Bofu again and said, "Thank you, Empress Empress, for such a minister, thank you Prince Wu."

Unexpectedly, Huangfu Haobo suddenly reached out to hold her hands: "Why is Miss Li'er so polite? Didn't the king say that? Sooner or later, you and I will become a family. Since we are all Man, why are you being so polite?"

Hearing what he said, Xiao Li couldn't help but frowned slightly: "Prince Wu's words are too serious, I'm afraid I can't afford it."

But he didn't want Huangfu Haobo to never give her a chance to explain: "Anyway, Miss Li'er, please wait patiently for me. I have business to do today, so I'll go back first. See you in the palace tomorrow."

After bidding farewell to Huangfu Haobo, the general turned around, pulled Xiao Li and walked towards the backyard.

When they came to the study, the general gave an order and sent everyone away.

"Daddy, what are you going to do?" Xiao Li looked at the general, and felt that something was really wrong with the atmosphere at this moment.

"A Li, sit down first." The general told her.

But Xiao Li looked at the general's face at this time, but she really didn't dare to sit down: "Father, if you have anything to say, you might as well just tell Li'er." To be honest, seeing the general's face suddenly serious When she got up, she was really a little scared.

Hearing what she said, the general couldn't help but looked up at her silently, and then said: "Actually, you already know what my father wants to say to you, don't you?"

"Daddy——" Xiao Li couldn't help but pouted at the general: "How can my daughter know what Daddy wants to say? Why don't you tell your daughter clearly, Daddy."

I don't want this time, but the general doesn't like her anymore: "A Li! Daddy doesn't have the heart to joke with you!

When Xiao Li heard this, she immediately stood at attention: "Daddy..."

The general looked at her, but suddenly sighed: "When Lord Wu came here today, Ah Li must have understood it in his heart, right? It was nothing more than a decree passed down by the empress. Originally, only one eunuch was needed in the palace. It’s enough to pass it on, but Prince Wu, for this reason, came to our general’s mansion in person. Just by looking at him like this, Li’er must have already figured it out in his heart? Wine."

Xiao Li couldn't help but frown upon hearing this: "What does Daddy mean?"

"What's the point of being a father? It's just for the words my father asked you last night—Ah Li, in your heart, what do you think of the emperor's princes?"

"What does your daughter think of them?" For a moment, Xiao Li couldn't help but become dazed.

Marrying Huangfu Haobo was absolutely impossible for her.But what about Huangfu Haotian?Could it be that in her heart, she really doesn't have the slightest grudge against him anymore?

"A Li, it doesn't matter what you think in your heart as a father. But as a father, you must tell you clearly that you are the only child left by your side now. Therefore, as a father, you will definitely not agree. , getting you involved in the endless struggle between them."

Hearing the general's words suddenly, Xiao Li couldn't help but feel a sense of awe in her heart: "Father, what do you mean by these words..."

The general sighed helplessly: "A Li, why did Dad bring his family and move to the border? It was because Dad really didn't want to go through the muddy waters of the capital!"

Speaking of this, the general couldn't help but suddenly express a trace of emotion: "For the rest of my life, instead of staying in this capital and fighting with those dignitaries in the officialdom every day, it's better to be with my brothers in the army and get drunk every day." Lying on the battlefield, but also ended up unrestrained."

After finishing speaking, the general raised his eyes to look at Xiao Li again: "Daddy said so, A Li, do you understand what Daddy means?"

After Xiao Li heard this, she couldn't help but nodded solemnly at the general: "Daughter already understands what Daddy means. Daughter also asks Daddy to rest assured. Regarding what Daddy said last night, Daughter will definitely understand Think it over carefully."
