1228. Chapter 1228 Sleepless Night

When Lu Shuang'er returned to the palace, she almost couldn't control the anger in her heart and threw the quilt out of her hands. She didn't expect that Liu Qiao'er would actually enter the palace, and now she seemed to be ready to replace her and become the emperor's most favored woman. This Lu Shuang'er couldn't bear it. She couldn't let anyone replace her, let alone Liu Qiao'er. Liu Qiao'er would definitely remember the past and would definitely oppose her in everything in the palace in the future.

She needs someone to help her.

Her eldest brother is still in Yaogu and has not come back. Who can she ask to help her? Lu Tingzhi...

Lu Shuang'er thought of Lu Tingzhi and frowned again. Lu Tingzhi might not help her.

"Mother, what's wrong with you?" Lu Shuang'er's maid saw that she looked strange when she came back, and thought she was feeling unwell.

"Send a message to the outside of the palace tomorrow and ask Mrs. Liu to come into the palace." Lu Shuang'er whispered. She couldn't let Lu Tingzhi help her. Then she still had her mother. Her mother would definitely help her at all costs. How could Lu Tingzhi still be able to help her? Ignore it?

The palace maid was stunned for a moment, "Yes, your Majesty."

That night, many people in Qi's harem could not sleep.

Zhao Ning is still thinking about what to do next? I don’t know if Jin Guolai proposed marriage. The longer she and Zhao Rao got along, the more scared she felt. This was a feeling she had never felt before. She had never felt this kind of chill from the bottom of her heart even towards Lu Yaoyao before. , she wanted to leave Qi State, even returning to Huajia Village would be better than here. She didn't like this feeling of being at the mercy of others, as if she couldn't decide everything she had.

At the same time, Zhao Xin was also restless. When she was in Jin State, she thought about returning to Qi State to complain to her father to make Prince Shen look good. How could she have thought that Prince Shen in Jin State was actually her father? Wasn't it true that her unruly behavior in Jinguo's house was noticed by her father? "Although my father didn't dote on her very much in the past, at least he would greet her gently when he saw her. Now... I'm afraid that in the future As a princess, she has even less status.

She really regretted that she shouldn't have been rude to Prince Shen in the Kingdom of Jin.

The night was long and frustrating, but it passed by just like that. Zhao Ning had just finished dinner when someone from the palace came to send a message, saying that the emperor wanted to see her and asked her to go to Qianqing Palace immediately.

Why did the father suddenly want to see her? Zhao Ning was worried, so she asked the palace maid to change her clothes. When she walked out of the west side hall, she saw Zhao Rao coming from the main hall.

"Sister." Zhao Ning called in a low voice, "Why are you here?"

"I heard that my father wants to see you, don't be too nervous, it might be a good thing." Zhao Rao smiled broadly, as if his wish had come true.

Zhao Ning felt a knot in his heart when he saw the smile on her face. Could it be a marriage? Has Zhao Rao already asked someone to file a memorial for her to marry Marquis Anning?

"What good thing? Sister, do you know anything?" Zhao Ning asked tentatively.

Zhao Rao smiled and said, "I don't know either. I have to ask my father to tell you. You should go to Qianqing Palace quickly. Don't let your father wait too long."

"Okay," Zhao Ning felt sour in her heart. It seemed that her guess was right. Zhao Rao had indeed asked someone to submit a memorial. Her father asked her to go because of this matter. No, she would not agree. She must She wanted to marry in Jin State, but she didn't want to stay in Qi State at all.

"Go." Zhao Rao glanced at Zhao Ning with satisfaction. She had received the news a long time ago. Today, many ministers in the court had already submitted memorials asking the emperor to marry Zhao Ning to Marquis Anning, although his father did not immediately nod in agreement. , but she felt that they were inseparable.

The smile on Zhao Ning's face turned cold when she turned around. No matter what her father said, she would never agree to marry Marquis An Ning.

"Sister." Zhao Xin came to Sufang Palace not long after Zhao Ning left. "I saw Zhao Ning just now. Where is she going?"

"Qianqing Palace." Zhao Rao said lightly.

Zhao Xin was stunned for a moment, then said with great joy, "Has the emperor already decided to grant a marriage?"

"It should be so." Zhao Rao said, "This morning my grandpa asked the emperor for marriage, and other ministers also agreed to marry Zhao Ning to Marquis Anning. Although my father did not agree immediately, there should be nothing wrong with it. "

She is still confident in her arrangement. Her father values ​​the Marquis of Anning and will not give him a marriage casually. Zhao Lan is in poor health and Zhao Xin is not worthy of becoming the Marquis of Anning. Only Zhao Ning looks smart and her mother's family is simple. Even if Marrying Marquis An Ning will not be used by others, and his father will probably agree.

Zhao Xin whispered, "Sister, what about...my business?"

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Zhao Rao glanced at her lightly, "Lan'er hasn't been married yet, so you have to wait a little longer."

"Lan'er's health is so bad. If she doesn't get married, won't I be able to get married as well?" Zhao Xin asked, stamping her feet.

Zhao Rao raised his lips and smiled, "You and I should go and see Lan'er. Didn't you say she is sick?"

"Okay." Zhao Xin nodded.

On the other side of the Yikun Palace, Lu Shuang'er was also in a bad mood. She didn't sleep well last night. Early this morning, she heard that Liu Guiren came to pay her respects, so she knew that the visitor was evil.

"Sister, please give my regards to the imperial concubine." Liu Qiao'er bowed in a seductive manner and looked up at Lu Shuang'er with a smile.

Really... Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi. She thought she would never see Lu Shuang'er again in her life, but she would actually meet her again in the palace of Qi State.

Lu Shuang'er looked at her with a gloomy expression, "Get up, Liu Guiren looks unwell, so just have a good rest in the room. Why are you here so early in the morning?"

"My sister saw my empress yesterday and felt that she looked very familiar. After going back and thinking for a long time, I finally remembered her. We are so destined. After so many years, I never thought that we would have the chance to meet again." Liu Qiaoer said with a smile. .

"I never thought that the emperor would bring a woman who can do anything to her back to the palace." Lu Shuang'er said with a sneer on his lips, looking at Liu Qiao'er viciously.

"No one can help me?" Liu Qiao'er covered his mouth and smiled, not caring that there were other maids around him, "I am living an ignoble life in Yiyin Pavilion, isn't it all thanks to you? Speaking of which, the imperial concubine is not that clean either. , why are you so embarrassed to talk about others?"

Lu Shuang'er's face darkened, "What did you say?"

"Ouch, I said the wrong thing." Liu Qiao'er lightly slapped his cheek, "How can I tell this secret? The imperial concubine seemed to have been an imperial concubine in the Jin Kingdom before. The imperial concubine's life is really good. No matter where you go, you can be a queen."

"Shut up!" Lu Shuang'er shouted angrily, "Mr. Liu, have you forgotten your identity? Do you think that by becoming a noble, you can step in front of me? You used to have to kneel before me. In front of me, now you have to kneel down to talk to me!"
