Chapter 126 Want to fight me?you're younger
Feng Lingzun sent Shangguan Xiaoxiao all capable craftsmen.
So in less than half a month, the decoration of Lingyun Palace has already taken some shape.
These days, except for resting in his bedroom, Shangguan Xiaoxiao spends most of his time supervising the work in Lingyun Palace. He can't wait to rush to work day and night, so that he can make Lingyun Palace the way he wants as soon as possible.
Seeing her working so hard, even Xiao Cui couldn't stand it anymore.
"Niangniang, you are a noble concubine, how can you stay here every day for a reason, but let the servants laugh at you?"
"Joke? Who dares to laugh at me?"
Shangguan smiled and didn't really care.
"You know, the concubines of the harem naturally dare not criticize you publicly, but I don't know how to talk about it behind the scenes."
"If they talk badly, let them say it, and I don't care."
"But empress, if these words reach the ears of the queen mother and concubine, I'm afraid you will lose your identity."
"What's wrong with my identity?"
Xiao Cui was also thinking of her master wholeheartedly, seeing her behavior like this, she was about to be pointed at behind her back, so she couldn't help reminding her.
"You have a distinguished status, and you should not have to supervise these things that the servants should worry about. If Niangniang is really worried, Xiaocui can help Niangniang guard every day."
"I know you're doing it for me."
Shangguan smiled and kicked away the broken wooden planks in front of him, "But if I don't see it with my own eyes, I really don't feel at ease."
"If your empress is really worried, you might as well find someone who understands to watch over for your empress. It's better than you staying here yourself."
Seeing Xiao Cui persuading him so earnestly, Shangguan smiled and shook his head helplessly, "Forget it, go back, I won't stay here today."
As soon as they returned to Fuxi Palace, the maid at the gate of the palace smiled and reported to the official that Concubine Liu had arrived and was waiting in the courtyard.
"What is she doing with me again?"
Shangguan Xiaoxiao actually didn't want to get in touch with Concubine Liu.
This woman is too scheming, probably even in her dreams, she is thinking about how to frame her.
And she just wants to make good money, fighting back and forth will only make her heart tired.
"I don't know that Concubine Liu came to look for this palace, but what's the matter?"
As soon as Shangguan Xiaoxiao entered the yard, he saw Concubine Liu standing in the yard with a relaxed face, and when she saw her coming in, she bowed slightly as a salute.
"The concubine pays her respects to the imperial concubine and empress!"
"If there is nothing important, I want to rest." Shangguan smiled and waved his hand, signaling her to back down.
Concubine Liu's face suddenly became a little embarrassed.
Without saying a word, you actually want to drive her away?
Obviously just look down on her.
"Today, the queen mother gave the concubine some nourishing soups. The concubine heard that the concubine had been working very hard these days, so she wanted to send it to the concubine to repair her body."
[Bring soup?Are you so kind?Are you afraid you want to poison me to death?And in the name of the Queen Mother. 】
Shangguan smiled and thought of what Xiao Qi had said.
Although he was reborn unexpectedly, the catastrophe that originally belonged to him still exists, so things like life-threatening things will happen every once in a while.
Whether someone did it on purpose, or it really happened by accident.
Anyway, after experiencing death, it will always be by my side.
Therefore, Shangguan Xiaoxiao was even more wary of someone with a scheming heart like Concubine Liu.
"Concubine Liu really has a heart. I am so tired that I don't need supplements. It's just that I heard that the emperor has frequently stayed in Concubine Liu's bedroom recently. It should be a good supplement for the emperor."
"The maiden has a heart, and the concubine naturally understands."
Concubine Liu looked very unhappy about this matter, she obviously felt that she had crushed the concubine in this respect.
But what she didn't know was that the man who smiled and slept with Shangguan in his arms every night was the real Feng Lingzun.
"The imperial concubine, the concubine is also kind, I hope the empress will not shirk again."
Concubine Liu stretched out her hand to signal, and the maid behind her quickly presented a small cup of soup in her hand to Shangguan with a smile.
【Good guy, right and wrong forced me to drink it today? 】
[Could it be that the emperor is staying overnight every day, so he is planning to attack me? 】
【Do you think I, Shangguan, smiled to be fooled? 】
"By the way, Bengong has recently researched a new dessert. I was thinking of sending some to Concubine Liu to try sometime when I have time. Empress Dowager."
Xiaocui got the order and hurried into the house to get the sweet-scented osmanthus cake.
Shangguan Xiaoxiao took advantage of the time Concubine Liu was waiting to communicate with Xiao Qi.
[Xiaoqi, is there any medicine in the tonic soup that Concubine Liu wants me to drink? 】
"Host, you are so smart."
[Damn, this concubine Liu is really vicious, she actually wants to poison me with medicine. 】
"That's not so."
Xiao Qi thought for a moment, and then said, "According to the system's calculations, Concubine Liu should want to give the host a laxative, and then let the host not care about Lingyun Palace."
[Is laxative not a medicine?Fortunately, I have already made a move. Since she is unkind, don't blame me for being unrighteous. 】
Seeing that Shangguan's smile became weird, Concubine Liu was puzzled and couldn't help but ask, "Is your concubine unwell? The concubine looks at you, and your face doesn't seem very good. In that case, while the soup is still hot, Take it now."
"Then I would like to thank Concubine Liu for her kindness."
Shangguan smiled and stretched out his hand to accept the soup cup, then drank it clean in front of Concubine Liu.
At this moment, the expression on Concubine Liu's face was one of satisfaction.
It was a bad breath for myself.
Originally Concubine Liu was dissatisfied with Shangguan Xiaoxiao, and because of Liu Cheng's intentional obstruction of entertaining the envoys last time, she couldn't embarrass Shangguan Xiaoxiao at the banquet.
She even made her own the limelight at one point.
Now, the emperor actually gave her another Lingyun Palace.
This made Concubine Liu unable to swallow her breath.
Now, with the soup gifted by the queen mother to Shangguan Xiaoxiao, even if Shangguan Xiaoxiao feels unwell after drinking it, he probably wouldn't dare to do anything to her.
After all, blaming her is tantamount to blaming the queen mother for something wrong.
Concubine Liu was completely satisfied with her plan.
However, Shangguan Xiaoxiao is not someone who can be fooled casually.
Before taking that cup of soup, she swallowed the panacea that she signed in last time.
According to Xiao Qi's explanation, this pill can detoxify all toxins, so it is no problem to deal with mere laxatives.
Concubine Liu thought her plan had succeeded, and the smile on her lips could hardly be restrained.
When Xiaocui brought the sweet-scented osmanthus cake, she pretended to thank Shangguan with a smile, and then took the maid with her back to her bedroom.
That night.
Shangguan smiled while tasting the freshly made pumpkin dessert porridge, while listening to Dong'er describe the tragic situation at Concubine Liu's side.
"This is self-inflicted. You want to fight with Shangguan with a smile? You are still a little tender."
