Princess Sa Ya, who came to the Prince An Palace yesterday to congratulate, was very lively and adorable.
As a sister-in-law, I'm also worried about Sixth Brother's life. However, back then, Sixth Brother and Eldest Sister were rather fond of each other. ”How are things now?”
Baili Jinxiu scolded his Sixth Brother, causing the color of Gong Xiaoche's face to change.
Baili Jinxiu, who had followed behind him all this while, was now treating him like a little brother?
Princess Sa Ya? The foolish Baili Furong? It would be strange if he took another look.
Without mentioning anything else, if Baili Furong was not stupid, and was still a Prime Minister, Gong Xiaoche would not mind marrying Baili Furong into his family.
But seeing that the Emperor was getting further and further away from the Assistant Minister Baili, it would be strange if Gong Xiaoche took a fancy to him again.
But it was Gong Xiaoche who spoke up first just now. Even if Baili Jinxiu were to speak in his capacity as his sister-in-law, it would not be too much to speak of this now.
After all, compared to how tired Gong Xiaoche was, there was no problem for Sister-in-law to care for her little brother.
”Princess An is really eloquent.” The Imperial Concubine watched as her son was rendered speechless. The smile on her face slowly disappeared.
The arrogant way he acted was enough to scare others, but it couldn't scare Baili Jinxiu at all.
How many times had Baili Jinxiu sparred with the imperial concubine before? From the moment Second Master Mo died, he didn't think much of it at all.
Baili Jinxiu clearly knew that in a battle with an imperial concubine, he wouldn't have to worry about his own life or death.
Because in the eyes of a imperial concubine, if a little brother could become a tool to frame him, then Baili Jinxiu would put the imperial concubine in the category of 'unscrupulous means'.
If he was going all out, what was there to be afraid of?
”Thank you, Noble Consort, for your praise.” Baili Jinxiu calmly accepted the praise. After all, what the imperial concubine said was indeed the truth.
Her words rendered Gong Xiaoche speechless; naturally, he had a sharp tongue.
Baili Jinxiu's open appearance made the imperial concubine grind her teeth in anger.
”Esteemed wangfei, it's time for you to give the empress dowager some tea.” Nanny He turned around and carried the tea that the palace maids brought up to him. When Baili Jinxiu took it over, he immediately brought her to the front of the empress dowager.
In the exchange between Baili Jinxiu and Imperial Concubine Gong Xiaoche, the empress dowager's face had always been cold. A pair of eyes merely opened up and sized up Baili Jinxiu when he entered.
For the rest of the time, the empress dowager only half-closed her eyes and didn't say a word, even though the imperial concubine was speaking with incomparable affection.
Baili Jinxiu looked towards the imperial concubine. The imperial concubine was sitting proudly by the empress dowager's side, unexpectedly still smiling as she said, ”The empress dowager's body is uncomfortable. Prince An, Princess An, just kneel down and drink some tea.
Imperial Concubine, are you planning to make Gong Xiaoxuan and me kneel to her?
Although they were imperial concubines' juniors, they were now Prince and an imperial concubine. When meeting a imperial concubine, there was really no need for them to kneel down and kowtow.
Imperial Concubine, are you planning to use the power of the empress dowager to intimidate yourself and Gong Xiaoxuan?
Baili Jinxiu carefully looked at the empress dowager's face, but discovered that the empress dowager didn't seem to agree with what she said at all.
