After reading my mind, Daddy, why don't you smile?

Chapter 453: Grandmother, Where's the BBQ?

Inside the palace, the queen rolled up her sleeves, took a brush, and was brushing oil on chicken wings. As she brushed, she introduced them to the palace maids around her, "This is called Barbie Q! It's in English, remember it!"

"oh oh……"

The Queen frowned and said, "Repeat it."

Palace servants: "Eight...Eight will be deducted..."

"It's not a buckle, it's a Q! Never mind, just remember it!"

Aunt Hua smiled and brought a plate of skewered meat. "Madam, I have prepared a piece of meat, a piece of green pepper, a piece of meat, and a piece of pineapple according to your request!"

"Okay, okay! Put it on for me!"

While they were roasting, a noise came from outside. The queen frowned, "Who is this? It's so noisy in the middle of the morning. They're still making noise even though they're under house arrest. Optimus Prime, go and take a look!"

The young eunuch who was renamed Optimus Prime bowed and left in small steps. He came back after a while, "My queen, is it the princess and the young princes?"

"Ying'er?" The queen stood up and threw the brush into the oil pan, calling out to the palace servants, "Quick, quick, quick! Hide everything!"

The palace servants were stunned for a moment, then immediately stepped forward to move things.

The queen did not forget to fan the air with her fan, trying to blow away the smell of the meat.

Aunt Hua was puzzled and stepped forward to ask, "Madam, why are you doing this?"

The queen sighed, "Her father is still sick, and I'm barbecuing in the palace like nothing happened. How can I let the child see me?"

Aunt Hua suddenly understood.

The queen suddenly remembered that she was under house arrest and the children might not be able to come in, so after explaining herself, she walked towards the palace gate.

Seeing this, Aunt Hua stretched out her hand to stop him, "Madam, your mouth..." The oil on it has not been wiped off yet...

The Queen had left the door open.

"See the Queen!"

"Mother..." Zhao Ying said anxiously.

"Grandmother! They won't let me in!" Shangguan Ersansi complained in unison.

Shangguan Qingyue had already thrown himself onto the Queen's lap like a little cannonball, "Grandmother!" The little guy raised his head and looked at her eagerly.

"Come, Grandmother, take a look!"

The queen picked up Shangguan Qingyue with heartache. She was under house arrest, and the little kids must have been scared!

However, the next second, Shangguan Qingyue's big eyes looked behind her and sniffed around like a puppy.

"Grandmother, where's the barbecue?"

Queen:......

Zhao Ying stepped forward and asked with concern, "Mother, are you okay?"

"Mother is fine!"

Seeing that the Queen was safe and sound, Zhao Ying became more certain of her guess that her father must have seen something and wanted to protect her mother.

That being the case, she couldn't expose her father's thoughts.

She wants to take advantage of the situation.

"Please wait a minute, mother. I will go find father and ask him what mistake you made and why he has put you under house arrest." Zhao Ying pretended to be anxious and angry, and turned around to leave.

But when he saw the woman in front of him with pearls and green hair, he stopped suddenly.

The palace maids and imperial guards saluted upon seeing this, "Greetings to the Imperial Concubine!"

Concubine cyst?

Zhao Ying chuckled inwardly but remained expressionless, allowing Concubine Chuang's eyes to scan her up and down.

That look, filled with condescending contempt, was very uncomfortable.

Zhao Ying wanted to laugh even more. No one in her life had ever looked at her like that.

Really...looking for death.

She is no longer the woman who could endure anything in the world. She has led an army of 150,000 and massacred cities. What can't she do?

A royal concubine is not enough.

Zhao Ying smiled faintly.

Imperial Concubine Gang spoke in a sharp and drawn-out voice, "So it's Princess Chengqian. I wonder who it is? Why, Princess, don't you want to pay homage to me?" She looked at Shangguan Qingwan and the others, "And these kids, don't they also know the rules?"

Zhao Ying was about to speak, but was interrupted by the queen's calm voice. The queen did not have a trace of arrogance, but was calm, which made her look more noble. "Noble Concubine Qi."

Aunt Hua said, "The Imperial Concubine was just canonized, she doesn't know the rules, and she hasn't even paid homage to our Empress!"

Concubine Gang was furious and stared at the Queen as if she wanted to eat her. The Queen was puzzled as to why she hated her so much. Did she provoke her?

But the empress was no pushover. Her supreme status over the years was not solely dependent on the favor of Emperor Jianxi. Seeing that Concubine Gang was reluctant to pay her respects, the empress gave a look to several palace maids.

The palace maids stepped forward, led by Aunt Hua, and said, "If Imperial Concubine Qi doesn't understand the rules, then we, the servants, will have to make her understand!"

"How dare you! You bunch of old slaves! How dare you touch me! Ouch!"

Before she could finish, she felt a sharp pain in her knee. It was indeed Nanny Hua who kicked her. Then, several maids pressed Concubine Gang to the ground.

The palace maids behind Concubine Xiang were startled and wanted to stop her but did not dare to.

Concubine Gang cursed, "Since you, a fake, have humiliated me like this, I will tell His Majesty and I will tear you into pieces!"

She looked at Zhao Ying and smiled coldly, "How can you be worthy of being a princess if you are so ignorant? Without me, you..."

The queen was shocked when she heard this, her face turned pale, "What do you mean?"

At this moment, Concubine Xiang had been released. Her hair was crooked due to her violent struggle, but she didn't care. She walked up to the Queen and said, "You fake, do you think you can deceive the Emperor for your whole life? You took away the favor, glory and wealth that should have belonged to me. If it weren't for me, how could you be so powerful today? Yet you come to show off to me. How can you be so shameless?!"

The queen frowned and said nothing.

Put Shangguan Qingyue down and protect him behind him.

Seeing this, Concubine Qi became even more proud, "Fortunately, God has eyes, allowing me to personally expose your true face and let me take back everything that belongs to me!"

"Everything you have? The one that should have belonged to you is that cruel and perverse King Yan. What does it have to do with my father?"

Imperial Concubine Gang was not annoyed. She swept her arrogant eyes over the faces of the Queen and Zhao Ying one by one, sneering, "Okay, okay, okay, you really won't cry until you see the coffin. Then I will show you who is the most beloved woman in the Emperor's heart, and who is the most worthy of being the Queen!"

"Lanxiang, help me back to the palace. It's almost time for lunch. The emperor said that he wants to go to my Xuanyang Palace with all the concubines to admire the divine bird peacock."

She let the palace maid help her and turned around suddenly, "I wanted to come over and ask the Queen to come with me. Although the Queen is under house arrest, the Emperor said that if I come to invite him, he is willing to give me a favor. I wonder if the Queen will give it to me?"

The Queen did not respond, and Concubine Qi looked at Zhao Ying again, "Princess, why don't you come with us?"

"Okay!"

Shangguan Qingyue jumped out from behind the Queen and said seriously, "Yue'er wants to see the peacock! Grandmother, mother, let's go see the peacock together!"

Concubine Gang sneered, "Sometimes adults are not as sensible as children."

She looked at Zhao Ying.

Zhao Ying picked up Shangguan Qingyue and said, "The Imperial Concubine will go first, and I will be there soon. As for the Queen Mother..."

"I will go!"

"In that case, I will wait for you in Xuanyang Palace."
