Chapter 213
When entering the house, it was only her and herself, and the rest of the servants were all waiting outside the house.

"My lord, sit down quickly and try the fragrant tea made by my concubine today, and see how it is different from yesterday." Bai Fangfei had a warm smile on her face, and her voice was like a yellow warbler out of the valley. Lazy and relaxed feeling.

King Qing lifted his robe and sat down, took a sip from the teacup, and frowned slightly. "It's a bit bitter."

Hearing this, Concubine Bai was surprised, and quickly picked up a cup and took a sip, with a strange look on her face, and then took another sip.

"My lord, this tea is just right. How could it be bitter? Is there something on your mind? Otherwise, a cup of fragrant tea would taste bitter." Bai Fangfei put down her teacup and said to King Qing.

King Qing took another cup of tea and drank it, but it was still bitter.

"Ah, Bai'er doesn't know something. Today, the emperor suddenly issued an order to seal Ming'er as Xianwang, and he will leave the capital immediately. If there is no summons, he must not return to the capital without permission. This king is probably worried about this matter, so That's why your mouth is full of bitterness." After finishing speaking, King Qing looked distressed, thinking about what the counselor said, and went to the princess's yard to rest at night.

Tomorrow, let the concubine convey her literary heart to the mansion, and ask her to advise Ming'er.

Hearing this, Concubine Bai's eyes showed a hint of joy, no matter why Shangguan Ming left the capital, as long as he is not in the capital, the prince's most promising son is not Shangguan Ming but her son.

"My lord, don't worry about it. Didn't you say that the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge? Drink another cup of tea. I believe everything will be fine tomorrow."

In the past, Concubine Bai would definitely help King Qing think of a way to solve the problem, but this time Shangguan Ming was going to leave and she was too happy, so how could she stop it.

"Will the lord keep dinner at night?" Although the side concubine Bai is in her forties, she still has a lot of style, and her skin is as smooth and tender as a girl's.

King Wen Yanqing sat up and said to Concubine Bai: "I won't stay any longer, I will go to Wangfei's courtyard after the meeting, you should rest early."

The expression on Concubine Bai's face stiffened instantly, her clenched fists were covered by her long sleeves, and she sent off King Qing with a considerate and gentle smile.

After King Qing left, Concubine Bai asked someone to come in and remove all the tea sets, and asked her servants to find Shangguan Qing and tell him that Shangguan Ming was leaving Beijing.

"You are a big brother who is very capable. This time he leaves you, you must be more confident and let your father see your ability. It is not only Shangguan Ming who can support this palace, you can too, you know." Bai Fang The concubine led Shangguanqing into the study, and the two talked behind closed doors.

Shangguanqing nodded seriously, indicating that he understood.

But he also knew that no matter how hard he tried, he would never be able to surpass Shangguan Ming. When he heard the news that Shangguan Ming was leaving Beijing, Shangguan Qing was very excited.

"Mother, don't worry, one day my son will call your mother openly, and my son will work harder." He hated the status of a bastard, which made him unable to hold his head up in front of other sons.

One day he will make those who look down on him regret that they didn't please him back then.

Concubine Bai nodded with relief when she heard the words, and said: "Recently, you have to be more obedient. When Shangguan Ming leaves, Prince Qing's Mansion will be yours sooner or later."

There are more than a dozen concubines of King Qing, but the most promising one is Shangguan Qing, Shangguan Ming was given the palace by the King of the Underworld, and after a hundred years of King Qing, there will always be someone who will inherit the palace of Prince Qing, and the candidate must be her son.

With Shangguan Ming in the side concubine Bai, she knew that she could only be the side concubine. She was now dreaming that Shangguan Ming would die in an accident, and then King Qing would divorce Zhou Qing and make her the concubine.

The mother and son talked for a long time in the study before Shangguan Qing left the yard with a happy face.

King Qing left the courtyard of Concubine Bai and went to Zhou Qing's courtyard. In the courtyard, Zhou Qing saw King Qing coming, looked up and continued the embroidery work in his hand, without even giving Qing a single extra look.

After so many years of indifference, her heart has long since died.

Seeing Zhou Qing ignoring him, King Qing's face became ugly. He has always disliked coming here because Zhou Qing didn't know how to please him carefully, couldn't say things that would make him happy, let alone do things according to his wishes.

Zhou Qing is the prime minister's daughter. She is the most disciplined since she was a child. She is rigid and has no interest at all. After she married him, she began to secretly deal with his concubines. At first, he turned a blind eye until Zhou Qing wanted to fight for favor After killing his child, the relationship between him and her gradually cooled down.

The number of times Zhou Qing spent the night here in a month can be counted on one hand. At first, Zhou Qing still held some hope in his heart, but later he realized that the reason why King Qing didn't divorce her was mostly because of her son Shangguan. deep.

"How are you doing these days? Is the servant doing his best to take care of you?" King Qing asked after standing for a while.

Hearing this, Zhou Qing seemed to have just seen King Qing, and asked him indifferently. "Just tell me if you have anything to do. You won't come to my place if you have nothing to do. I remember that the last time you came here was because you wanted me to go to the Shang Mansion to propose a marriage. What's the matter this time?"

After Zhou Qing finished speaking, she didn't even look at King Qing, and concentrated on her embroidery work.

There were discerning maids in the courtyard who poured tea for King Qing. King Qing's expression was displeased, and the maids were worried that King Qing would throw up his sleeves and leave.

In the past, when Pluto was still in the mansion, the relationship between the princess and the prince was still superficial. Since Pluto left the mansion, the princess didn't even want to maintain superficial efforts.

King Qing was so angry that he snorted coldly and said, "He's not your good son, he was proclaimed idle king by the holy majesty today, and the imperial decree has ordered him to leave the capital at a certain date, and he will never enter the capital without being summoned.

After King Qing finished speaking, he saw Zhou Qing frowned, and then relaxed it after a while.

"Ming'er is a human being, I know that if he doesn't want to, no one can force him. Since this is what he wants, I won't stop it. I know what you have in mind. I advise you, you are really supercilious. If you have nothing to do, just leave, I didn't cook your dinner here."

Zhou Qing thought about the matter for a while, and he knew that King Qing's purpose of coming here today was to let her persuade Ming'er to stay in Beijing.

Although she doesn't like the concubine Ming'er married, she doesn't want to see Ming'er unhappy. Since Ming'er likes Wen Xin, she just needs to be out of sight and out of mind.

Hearing King Yanqing's angry face, and seeing Zhou Qing's indifferent expression, he roared angrily. "This king tells you that the day Ming'er leaves the capital is the day you give up the princess."

Hearing this, Zhou Qing put down his embroidery work, stood up slowly, and said to King Qing with a sneer, "You have finally spoken your mind, I know that I took the position of Concubine Bai, and I should not be the concubine. You named Shangguanqing Qing, doesn't it mean that he is more important to you than me? I don't want to be this princess for a long time, let alone you asked me to give up the princess, even if you divorce me, I won't Any complaints."

When her father was the prime minister, King Qing was willing to do some superficial tricks to make her happy. Since her father retired, King Qing has become more and more indifferent to her.

Living in this square yard every day, without seeing mountains or water, she wanted to follow in her father's footsteps more than once, even if she was abandoned.

She has kept the rules all her life, and she has never been truly happy for a day. If she can, she wants to live the rest of her life as much as she wants, at least like a person.
