Chapter 275 The rumors are true
Back at Shifang, the palace servants shuttled back and forth with dishes and wine in their hands, but it was already too late to see what was going on.
Liang Huan and Cao Danqing entered together.
As expected, all kinds of looks were cast.
On the Queen's birthday, the Queen's sister did not accompany the Queen, but went in and out with Concubine Shu. It was really unbelievable.
Liang Huan had long been accustomed to this, and Cao Danqing was fearless. Both of them were open-minded and generous.
Gao Qian is sitting on the main seat, the Queen Mother and the Queen are on the left and right, the Prince is next to the Queen Mother, Liang Huan is adjacent to the Queen, and the remaining ministers and nobles, in order of rank, kneel and sit on both sides, closely following In the back row, there are seats for the female family members.
Last time I was late on purpose, but this time it was an honest mistake.
Liang Huan smiled and apologized, and Cao Danqing followed suit.
The Queen Mother did not appreciate it and snorted coldly: "You are the one who is busy congratulating the Queen, but you are also the one who is late in the end."
Cao Ruomi gently came to the rescue: "The banquet is trivial. Concubine Shu has worked hard these days, and it is definitely not intentional to pass the time."
Liang Wei raised her lips and smiled: "It's not that I was too tired to miss the time, concubine. On the way here, I happened to meet Mrs. Taiwei. During the chat, she heard that the concubine in the mansion was pregnant. She asked her for some experience and went back to take care of her, so she chatted a few more words and forgot about the time. "
Cao Ruomi pursed his lips slightly, glanced at Zhou Yun's seat, and forced a smile: "Really, congratulations to Captain Zhou."
For a while, everyone at the table congratulated one after another. .
Zhou Yun stood up and raised his hand to express his thanks.
Apparently, the queen didn't know that Lianyang was pregnant.
Liang Han curled her lips slightly, which was good.
Gao Qian raised his eyes and said in a cool tone: "I thought Concubine Shu was dragging Danqing into a fight again."
It was said by the lotus pond in Duke Wei's mansion. Old things.
Everyone present had strange expressions.
Those who don't know the situation are surprised by what they hear; those who know the inside story cover their mouths and chuckle.
The smile on Liang Huan's face froze.
Cao Danqing also blushed.
Seeing Liang Huan embarrassed in public, Gao Qian was in a good mood for no reason.
“Still not seated yet?”
Cao Danqing bowed to retreat.
Liang Han stretched out his hand to hold her, looking a little embarrassed.
"Today is the queen's birthday. If you follow my pre-arrangements, your majesty should sit with the queen at the same table..."
Hearing this suddenly, Cao Ruomi was really surprised. He held his lips and smiled. Unnatural.
If the Lord refuses in public, she should be laughed at——
Cao Ruomi was so angry that he gritted his teeth secretly.
The Queen Mother rarely agreed: "Concubine Shu is right."
Liang Huan smiled and nodded.
Gao Qian stared into her eyes with a hint of coldness.
Liang Huan pretended not to see her, his dark eyes were clear and beautiful: "Your Majesty, please be sure. I want to sit with the Taiwei's wife at the same table, and I want to have some personal words with her."
Soft words, like a girl's catkin, gently rub the tip of my heart.
Gao Qian glanced at the smile hidden on his lips, full of calculations.
"That's right."
As soon as he finished speaking, not only Cao Ruomi was stunned, but even the Queen Mother looked sideways.
The rest of the people were dumbfounded, the rumors were true, and they really followed his advice.
Liang Huan smiled lightly: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Immediately, he turned around and directed the palace attendants to move the Queen's table to the main seat, and put new cups on the concubine's table.
Everyone was silently amazed that Concubine Shu was somewhat daring.
But looking at her like this, not only do I not feel domineering and disgusting, but every move, every frown and every smile is charming and pretty, which is pleasing to the eye. The strange road caused the nephew and uncle to fight.
After a lot of fussing, the arrangements were finally made.
Sitting in the upper position for the first time and looking down, Cao Danqing couldn't help but feel nervous. He turned his face and whispered, "Why do you want me to sit here?"
Liang Huan picked up a chopstick of chicken. Cong, placed on a jade plate in front of Cao Danqing, without raising her eyelashes: "What do you see from here?"
Cao Danqing turned around and saw that there were no empty seats below. She was so condescending that she could not even eat them. You can clearly see the food on the plate.
“Even if someone is in a high and powerful position, the king is the king and the minister is the minister.”
Liang Huan shook his head and said: "On weekdays, women who are gorgeously dressed and elegant are always behind their husbands. Their eyes can only stare at the back of the person in front of them, waiting for the occasional glance back."
Cao Danqing looked at Zhou Yun's position and saw that the desk that should have belonged to her was empty.
She seemed to see herself sitting behind him in the past, and her heart suddenly felt sad.
Liang Huan followed and looked over, sighing softly: "Zhou Yun has never looked over since he sat down. A person who doesn't have you in his heart, no matter where you are, he can't see you. Yours."
Cao Danqing clenched the jade chopsticks and lowered his eyes, his thick eyelashes covering the surge in his eyes: "Are you trying to persuade me to make peace with him?"
She bit her lower lip and raised her eyes: "You don't know, when I was very young, I thought that I must marry him when I grow up. Sister A'wan, I really like him. This kind of liking does not mean that I will marry him when I grow up." Less than you are right to——"
Before he finished speaking, he was already in tears.
Liang Huan nodded: "I understand, I'm not trying to persuade you to reconcile, I'm just letting you see your situation clearly."
"I only know that a good marriage should let you Becoming better does not make you lose your original glory. If you don’t have a husband worthy of your heart, you don’t have to compromise and marry someone. You can be happy alone.”
Cao Danqing’s eyes. Blushing: "I have always known that in his heart, he only has my sister, but I thought that one day I would be able to wait for him..."
“But what I waited for was that he and Lianyang——”
“I don’t hate Lianyang, because I know that Lianyang is just a shadow, but I am not even as good as a shadow.”
Liang Huan didn’t say much, there were some hurdles, and only by thinking through them and seeing them away could we overcome them.
Persuasion cannot be done.
Besides, she doesn’t like to persuade.
Liang Wei sighed: "Danqing, you can like him, but when you like him, you should divide half of your love for him into liking yourself."
Cao Danqing swallowed his tears and slowly He raised his eyes, stared at her, and nodded gently.
"Sister Ah Huan, it is not unreasonable for my father to praise you so much when he was still alive."
Liang Huan sighed silently. From today on, she may not say that again. .
She pondered for a moment and said: "If you change your mind in the future, I will still help you."
Cao Danqing responded.
The topic is over.
Liang Huan poured a glass of wine for Cao Danqing and smiled calmly: "Drink some and try it."
Cao Danqing understood that this was an attempt to cover up for himself, so he did not hesitate and She took up the wine cup and drank it all in one gulp. The spicy taste entered her throat. She coughed, her eyes were red, and she shed tears.
Liang Han put down the wine bottle and turned his head to look.
Gao Qian's eyes have been staring here, gloomy and full of dissatisfaction.
Liang Huan lowered his eyes and took a slow breath. The Danqing incident was not an accident.
She twitched the corners of her lips and smiled at Gao Qian: "Your Majesty, in addition to hosting the birthday banquet, I also have a gift to give to the Queen."
After hearing this, everyone present His eyes suddenly focused on him.
Cao Ruomi put down the jade chopsticks with a gentle smile on his face: "Concubine Shu, you have troubled yourself, how can I -"
Gao Qian glanced at her and said with a smile: "Since it is Concubine Shu's wish, just accept it."
Looking at that smile, Cao Ruomi was in a trance.
How long has it been since they last talked pleasantly?
Liang Huan turned to Yuan Zhi and said: "Go and present the birthday gift."
