Chapter 110: Scared Me

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Intra-palace fighting was not a new topic for modern people. Especially in recent years, several popular Qing Palace plays had been put on TV screens, which allowed people to understand the intrigue of countless women around a man under the glory and wealth.

This phenomenon was the same in the royal family.

Women's jealousy was an eternal truth. However, within the royal family, the fights between the emperors were all within their control. At the very least, they did not have the desire to talk about the other party's existence and then their speed. This could be seen from their attitude towards the other party's juniors.

Wang Jinxiu was Huangfu Lingxi's daughter, But the entire royal family, All the women of the Emperor doted on him, Wang Bolong was in Nine Continents City. His biological mother, Ye Liu-li, did not say a word. Chen Hua Lou took care of him quietly. Like her biological son, Xia Qin Wei, who was the Empress, usually took care of all the dark forces of the royal family that could not be seen. She had also fought for her juniors in foreign countries.

Compared to the other great ancient chaebol, the royal family was a very young and top faction. At present, their foundation might be a bit weaker, but there were precious things that other great chaebol did not possess.

That was the power of unusual solidarity!

This was most perfectly reflected in the younger generation of the royal family.

Brothers and sisters of the same father and half mother. There was no discount on the word'blood '. It was true that blood was thicker than water.

As for the grudges between the Emperor's women, That seems to have become an inertia, Decades of noise, As if accustomed to it, They can love each other's children, However, he could not tolerate the other party's existence in peace of mind, Everyone felt wronged and shared a man with other women. But even so, every time the Emperor was angry, everyone, including Empress Xia Qinwei and the female Prime Minister Chen Hualou, would have to be obedient. This was a complicated and contradictory psychological expression of a woman, but it might be more appropriate to say that one thing befell one thing.

And what made Lin Xiaocao's head stand on end was precisely because of the habits or tacit understanding between the women for many years. The quarrels between them had indeed become accustomed to it, to the extent that they could subconsciously ignore the feelings of others.

There were many top figures in the Divine Boat Empire who didn't dare to pick up food after a meal. Lin Xiaocao could only think of a saber light and a sword shadow in her mind. Her entire body was uncomfortable, and she felt a little uncomfortable sleeping.

"You look very nervous."

At seven o'clock in the evening, before dinner, in the changing room of the Silken Palace, Wang Jinxiu stood in front of Lin Xiaocao and tidied up the collar of his white suit. Looking at his obviously stiff face, she smiled and said, "My parents won't eat you. Furthermore, it's not like they haven't seen you before. Why are you nervous?"

"I have a headache when I think of your aunts. I really don't know how the Emperor got here these past few years. Are you tired?"

Lin Xiaocao sighed emotionally and unconsciously pinched Wang Jinxiu's face.

"Not tired. I think my dad enjoys it. Besides, aunts rarely get together. Occasionally, fighting is normal. When we sit together for dinner, my dad usually doesn't say anything and doesn't care about the noise. In any case, he just moves his mouth. My dad said that every wife's voice is very pleasant to listen to, so let's take it as listening to a song."

Wang Jinxiu smiled and said. She seemed to be in a good mood. Of course, if Lin Xiaocao's injuries recovered, it would be even better.

"What you said makes sense. I'm actually speechless."

Lin Xiaocao almost burst into tears. "Then I heard that the king beside him didn't dare to eat a single mouthful of food. Is that true?"

"This …"

Wang Jinxiu coughed dryly and her words flickered. Finally, she smiled and said, "Alright, don't think too much. Anyway, you won't encounter this kind of situation. Eat more and eat less later. Ah, no, don't talk too much. Perhaps many years later, another young boy or girl will stand in front of our child and be as nervous as you."

Lin Xiaocao's eyes were absent-minded for a moment, and then he instantly became agitated and didn't say anything.

Wang Jinxiu snorted and glared at Lin Xiaocao. She held his arm and said, "Let's go."

The embroidered palace was not far from the Imperial Palace.

When Lin Xiaocao and Wang Jinxiu arrived at the Emperor's palace, The dining room was already crowded, The aunts Wang Jinxiu mentioned were all here. There were seven of them, Sitting with the emperor, in terms of spirit alone, The younger emperor was sitting with his wives for two generations, She didn't seem like a confidant who had accompanied him through decades of hardships, Those who don't know the inside story, She would definitely think that His Majesty was really an old cow eating tender grass. Her natural beauty and the effect of piling up RMB every year was a bit heaven-defying. Even Lin Xiaocao, who had seen many beauties, was in a trance. She shouted one by one in a daze, leaving only a simple information about the aunts in her heart.

According to the relationship between the imperial harem, Chen Hualou and Huangfu Lingxi had a good relationship. The two of them were natural enemies with Empress Xia Qinwei and Ye Wei, who had once been a feudal official in the Divine Boat Empire.

Ye Liu-Li was in a rather tragic situation today. Tang Xin, who had a good relationship with her, was not here today, so she was destined to fight alone.

Auntie Qin, whom Wang Jinxiu spoke of, Qin Qingli was considered the elder closest to Lin Xiaocao. Even if he didn't call her aunt according to the emperor's relationship, Seeing her, Lin Xiaocao had to call her aunt respectfully, Godfather Qin Tianjiao's younger sister, He had too many reasons for respect, Unfortunately, this aunt was rather uneasy in the harem, It could be said to be jumping up and down, A person was very strong and self-styled. If she said it sounded good, it would be a wall grass. That's right, it sounded good. If it sounded bad, she would make enemies on all sides. Whoever she wanted to provoke depended entirely on her mood. Often, she would not hesitate to change her stance the next second when she spoke for Huangfu Lingxi. Then, she would eat calmly amidst the denunciations.

Lin Xiaocao respected this aunt very much, but he didn't dare to provoke her at this moment. He didn't dare to approach her and quickly left after greeting her.

Apart from Tang Xin, There are two more, The two vice presidents of the Wang Group, Chu Qianyuan and Yu Xiaowu, These two plus Dr. Sun Qingying, who was smiling quietly at the side, said, It's a neutral faction in the imperial harem, said to be neutral, But the ones who sow discord are really good, There were countless random battles at the dining table between the three of them, Overall, None of the Emperor's women were fuel-efficient lamps, This was only the simple vein of the harem, and the interior was even more dazzling. In general, this was a very complicated and loving harem group. It was clearly a group of proud women who had attracted attention everywhere they stood. However, if they went to this place, it would definitely form a farce that could not be said to be a comedy or a tragedy. It was complicated and dazzling.

"Sit down."

The Emperor waited for Lin Xiaocao to greet everyone before waving his hand and signaling the kitchen to serve the dishes.

Wang Jinxiu sat beside Lin Xiaocao.

Lin Xiaocao sat beside Wang Fuyu, who remained silent. At this moment, the King next to him did not have the slightest habit of chatting. He sat quietly and smiled honestly. However, his eyes were like a wronged daughter-in-law. He did not dare to move or speak.

The atmosphere was unusually strange.

Lin Xiaocao gradually quieted down.

Because the one sitting diagonally opposite him was the Emperor.

To this man, his status in Lin Xiaocao's heart was undoubtedly rather complicated.

However, it was undeniable that every time Lin Xiaocao saw him, his heart would quickly calm down and he would be able to face everything calmly.

A handsome young girl came out of the kitchen with exquisite trays and placed the dishes on the table. Lin Xiaocao casually glanced at them and raised her eyebrows.

Sixteen dishes included three dishes. They were spicy, sweet, and half meat and half vegetables. With so many dishes, it was one thing to have so many people. It was one thing to treat Lin Xiaocao to a banquet. Most importantly, these ladies had different tastes.

Lin Xiaocao had another headache. He held the chopsticks in one hand and took a sip of the milk in the other. He waited quietly for the goddess aunts in front of him to start the war.

"Let's eat first."

The Emperor took the lead in picking up the dishes and said calmly.

"Last time, I specially asked someone to collect the royal recipe. I had someone learn how to cook this Qing Palace's Wanfu meat. It tasted good. How about you try it?"

Empress Xia Qinwei, who was sitting elegantly on the right side of the Emperor, placed a piece of meat in the Emperor's bowl and smiled softly. She carefully chose half of the pork and half of the fat. It was bright and appetizing.

The corner of the Emperor's mouth twitched slightly and he nodded his head quietly.

"It doesn't taste good. It's a little sweet."

Huangfu Lingxi took a piece for himself and tasted it. He blinked his eyes and said seriously.

"Then eat some light vegetables. It's good for your stomach."

Xia Qinwei said indifferently and placed another chopsticks and vegetables in a small porcelain bowl in front of Huangfu Lingxi.

Wang Fuyu, Wang Jinxiu, and Lin Xiaocao lowered their heads almost at the same time without saying a word.

Everyone present knew that Huangfu Lingxi, the immortal sister in the Emperor's heart was a standard carnivore. At the very least, with meat, vegetables were never her choice. But even so, after decades of eating, she was still a graceful and graceful figure that made most young women go crazy with jealousy. It was a miracle.

"I don't eat vegetables. I like meat. It's different from you. I'm not afraid."

Huangfu muttered to himself as he placed the vegetables in the bowl to one side of the small bowl and picked up the tenderloin.

"What am I afraid of?"

Xia Qinwei sneered and questioned.

"Are you afraid of being fat? You've always been afraid. You don't like you if you don't have a good body."

Huangfu Lingxi 's big eyes moved and she blinked lightly. Most of the time, she spoke with a very serious and foolish look, making people not doubt the authenticity of her words. "You ate meat when you were young, but you have eaten less and less these years. You should eat more."

As she spoke, she carried the chopsticks like flying, directly picking up a few pieces of pork for Huangfu Lingxi. Her eyes were serious, and her expression was kind.

Xia Qinwei took a deep breath and said coldly, "I don't care about anything like you. A woman doesn't even care about her man's opinion of her. It's not bravery, it's sad."

"I care too. Fuxing says that I'm born with beauty. No matter what I eat, I won't be fat."

Huangfu Lingxi smiled proudly. There was a simplicity in her big beautiful eyes that was rarely seen at her age.

"What a coincidence. He said the same thing to me. However, I think I should exercise some restraint. Furthermore, I suggest that you also exercise some restraint. Eat more vegetables. It's very nutritious."

Xia Qinwei smiled and a large chopsticks dish fell into Huangfu Lingxi Bowl.

"You eat meat."

Huangfu Lingxi's small nose wrinkled, and then a piece of pork appeared in Xia Qinwei's bowl.

"You eat."

"You eat meat!"

"Eat vegetables!"

"Eat meat!"

The two of them spoke and moved like flying. In the blink of an eye, their bowls were filled with the things they didn't like to eat the most. In less than two minutes, more than half of the two dishes were taken away.

Finally, a piece of pork fell from Xia Qinwei's bowl on the table because it couldn't be piled up.

The Empress and Yu Guanyin opened their eyes wide and glared at each other fiercely. Then, they simultaneously picked up the food they did not like to eat and gave it to the Emperor.

The Emperor was truly an imposing man. Without saying a word, he did not refuse to come. Whatever he had to eat, he wolfed it down. There was actually a faint smell of Qi swallowing mountains and rivers.

At that moment, Lin Xiaocao felt that even when he was sent flying by the three punches this morning, his aura was not as obvious as it was now.

"Even if Qin Wei is fat, she is still the queen of the royal family. She can help revive and do a lot of things. At the very least, she is not like someone who knows how to wander around without doing anything all day long."

A gentle voice sounded.

The two juniors and the King on the same side trembled at the same time.

Ye Wei.

Former head of the Divine Boat Empire's Huating City, a member of the Policy Bureau. In the harem, she was an ally of the Empress and Chen Hualou's number one enemy.

If the Divine Boat Empire did not have President Chen Hualou, Ye Wei would undoubtedly be the most dazzling woman in the empire's politics in recent decades, The two of them had gone to college together, lived in the same dormitory, and had been best friends, but in the end, they turned against each other because of some old things. In the empire's politics, the two of them went up together, and then went to the main hall. But in the end, during Ye Wei's three years of depression, the gap between the two most talented women in the empire's politics opened up.

The year Ye Wei met the Emperor, she returned to politics. At that time, she had been depressed for three years and was a deputy governor.

Chen Hualou was already the youngest high-ranking official in the empire.

In the 20 years of history that had passed since the Wang Clan became a royal clan, The two of them always competed with each other and entered the policy bureau that symbolized the highest authority of the empire. However, in the end, Chen Hualou soared into the sky in the position of the top leader of Nanyue Province and became one of the nine standing committee giants of the policy bureau. Ye Wei, on the other hand, quickly retreated and retreated to the position of the top leader of Huating City, arriving at the royal family.

It wasn't that Ye Wei's strength wasn't weak, her retreat was only to set her brother on the road.

If nothing unexpected happened, her brother and Chen Hualou would soon become the most tacit partners since the founding of the empire, and they would also stand at the peak of the empire's power!

Her elder brother, Ye Nianlun , was also the person with the highest voice among the nine giants of the standing committee of the Policy Bureaux, President Ye and Chu Jun!

If it weren't for Ye Nianlun , whether the first female Prime Minister of the Divine Boat Empire was surnamed Chen or Ye was still a mystery.

'"Fifty steps to laugh at a hundred steps. Although Consonance is easy now, when she is needed, her task is harder than anyone else's. She is the one who followed Renaissance to England for the adventure trade, not you. What did you do after you retired? Aren't you still idle every day?"

Chen Hualou, who was sitting on the right side of the emperor, naturally wouldn't let his allies fight alone. He would directly open his mouth to provide firepower support.

"Do you think I can't compete for you when I step down? If my brother's position isn't too critical, you might not be able to laugh until the end."

Ye Wei was quickly attracted away by Chen Hualou's hatred and said tit for tat.

"My location was confirmed when I left Nine Continents City twenty years ago."

Chen Hualou smiled confidently.

"You!"

Ye Wei was speechless for a moment, she turned around and glared fiercely at the Emperor who lowered his head to eat.

"Sister Ye, why don't you come out of Jianghu again? Let's fight with Sister Chen. Who loses and who comes back to retire, how about it?"

Sun Qingying smiled and said. She had been studying the information she had brought back from England these past few days. She had gained a lot and found an opportunity in a good mood. She did not hesitate to start fanning the flames.

Ye Liuli remained silent.

Without Tang Xin, she would definitely not casually attack without a suitable opportunity, as she lacked a heavyweight ally.

On the other side of the emperor, the eyes of the side-by-side king swiftly rotated. After hesitating for a moment, he reached out his chopsticks and picked up a piece of pork. Seeing that no one was stopping him, he quickly swallowed it into his mouth as if he was relieved of his burden.

'"..." Lin Xiaocao said.

"Hehe."

Wang Fuyu chuckled at Lin Xiaocao, looking a little sneaky.

"As for you?"

Lin Xiaocao said in pain. Originally, he didn't want to bother Wang Jinxiu and help himself to the dishes, but when he saw the virtue of a side-by-side king, his heart felt a sense of emptiness.

Wang Fuyu did not say anything, but tears flowed down his face.

He remembered the tragic scene of himself not daring to eat a single mouthful of rice after eating four large bowls of rice. At the same time, a few sister-in-law quarreled until the deadlock. The Emperor was still wolfing down the food quietly. Wang Fuyu originally wanted to pick up the food, but just as he reached out his hand, the chopsticks were slapped back.

The few sisters-in-law who were most familiar with him gave him several reasons to shatter his eggs.

Xia Qinwei said, "Little Yu, I bought you so many snacks when you were a child. If you don't eat vegetables now, you will die! Your sister-in-law Consonance likes this vegetable, you are not allowed to steal it!"

Huangfu Spirit Consonance: "You married my sister, you are not allowed to eat vegetables, this plate of pork, your sister-in-law Qin Wei likes to eat."

Ye Liuli said, "When you were a child, if I didn't take you away, where would I get the mighty and mighty Side-by-Side King? You've suffered so much and don't care about it this time. Don't touch the dishes. Your sisters-in-law like it."

Chen Hualou said, "You should just eat. Eat slowly and be full."

Even after a few years, it was still a scene that even the King of Side by Side felt sad when he thought of it.

"Alright."

The Emperor gulped down three bowls of rice in an extreme amount of time, sweeping away all the dishes Xia Qinwei and Huangfu Lingxi had'kindly 'given him. He took a sip of the milk in front of him and said.

The dining table immediately quieted down.

Everyone looked at Lin Xiaocao in unison, their eyes focused.

His Highness the War God's heart sank as he looked at the Emperor.

"Jinxiu has been bothering me these past few days. He wants to go to Nine Continents City with you and build a small laboratory in the War God Prince's Mansion. What do you think?"

The Emperor said indifferently as he looked at Lin Xiaocao calmly.

Lin Xiaocao was slightly stunned. He subconsciously said, "Very good. I've seen the palace side by side. The protection is very tight. There's nothing wrong with building a laboratory."

"Oh."

The Emperor oh, silently lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and asked coldly, "Are you together?"

Wang Jinxiu blushed.

When she was in bed, she could satisfy Lin Xiaocao's various demands and even rack her brains to please her. But now, when her father asked, she instantly became a little embarrassed.

"Yes."

Lin Xiaocao replied without hesitation. It was useless to deny it. The Emperor clearly knew what to ask, and he did not want to deny such a thing.

From that day three years ago, he had told himself that this royal princess belonged to him, and could only belong to him!

He smiled gently and took a big sip of the cowboy in front of him, a little absent-minded.

"If that's the case, then let Jinxiu go with you. When the time comes, remove the sign of the palace next to you and replace it with the sign of the War God Palace. After that, invite all the important figures over. I'll go to Nine Continents City recently and hold an engagement ceremony for you two. Jinxiu is still young. We'll talk about it after we get married for a few years. What do you think?"

Engaged?

Marriage? !

Lin Xiaocao had just swallowed half a mouthful of milk when he heard the Emperor's words. He coughed violently and spat out a mouthful of milk from his mouth and nostrils.

In her busy schedule, she glanced at Huangfu Lingxi and saw the earnest expectation and joy on the mother-in-law's face. She quickly reacted.

He turned his head and sprayed all the milk from his mouth and nose onto Wang Fuyu beside him.

The shocked Wang Fuyu suddenly jumped up subconsciously and cursed loudly, "Holy shit, Little Cao, fuck you! You scared me!"
