777, humiliation

The Deng family has been in power for many years, and the arrogance in their bones cannot be changed. Even when facing their biological mother, Mrs. Deng may have a condescending attitude. After the Deng family has been in power for too long, they have to forget who they are. They have to take care of everything and cannot see any existence that goes against their own wishes.

"Sometimes what parents and relatives do may not be really for the good of their children!" After hearing Deng Yarong's complaint, Mrs. Deng came to the Qi family with murderous aura to hold on to Deng Yarong's disrespect? No, she could not allow the Qi family to have disrespect to the Deng family. Deng Yarong's Qi family means that the Deng family is not good to Deng Yarong, that is not good to the Deng family!

Deng Yarong curled her lips. She knew this when the eldest prince chose a concubine. If she hadn't heard Xu Shu's reminder and had broken her leg cruelly, she would have really become Princess Qing on eight out of 100.

"Oh, by the way, why did your seventh cousin become the concubine of King Qing? I heard that it was the Queen's suggestion. Shouldn't the Queen love you more?"

"It is precisely because the Empress loves me more that it is Sister Qi who became the concubine of King Qing!" Xu Shu looked at Deng Yarong with a smile on her face, "Does Grandma Qi think being a concubine is a very respectful thing?"

"Although the concubine is also a concubine, with the support of the queen, this concubine is more prouder than the young grandmother of the Duke and the Marquis!" Deng Yarong pulled the corners of her mouth, and her expression was also unhappy.

"The prince’s concubine and your Deng family are the backing. No matter how proud you are, it is limited!"

"You mean Miss Huang Si?"

Seeing Xu Shu nodding, Deng Yarong suddenly lowered his voice, "Miss Huang Si may not be able to become Princess Qing!"

"Why do you say this?" Xu Shu's eyes flashed slightly. She knew that the emperor had chosen the Zheng girl as the concubine of Prince Qing, but she gave up the plan to win over the Huang family and divide the Deng family. Xu Shu initially guessed that the emperor failed to win over the Huang family, but looking at Deng Yarong's expression, could there be something else in the Deng family here?

"I don't know what's going on. It's just that the mother of the mother who sent the New Year gift from the Huang family to the Deng family last year did not accept it. Last month, Mrs. Huang handed over a post to me inexplicably. I kept Mrs. Huang talking for a while. Mrs. Huang stammered and vaguely. However, it seems that the Huang family did something and offended the Empress Dowager. The female family members of the Huang family have not entered the palace for several months!"

Therefore, the emperor asked the marriage between Miss Huang Si and King Qing to be scheduled for a few years later. The Deng family had no objection. It turned out that the Huang family offended the Deng family, so the Deng family allowed the emperor to neglect the Huang family so much. Xu Shu remembered that Master Zheng Qi told her that the position of the eldest son of the Huang family was lost because of the Deng family's intervention.

Could it be that the emperor was trying to win over the Huang family and the Deng family knew about the fact that the Huang family had a second thought? The Huang family was afraid of losing the support of the Deng family, so they turned around and wanted to return to the Deng family's wings again, but were disliked by the Deng family. The emperor was also dissatisfied with the behavior of the Deng family and was no longer needed to abandon it, so they came to the Zheng family. The Huang family hurriedly tried every means to make the Deng family change their minds.

"That's why you said that the concubine of Cousin Qi was so proud of her?"

"If there is no official concubine, how can you not be proud!" Thinking that Zheng Wanli had helped Fu Xinyao to exclude her, Deng Ya couldn't help but sneer, "Let's tell her to be proud for a few more days!"

Thinking of what Mrs. Zheng Si said, the day when Zheng Wanli came to the palace to thank her, when she saw Miss Xiao’s sixth family, Xu Shu knew that Deng Yarong also knew about this. Deng Yarong was not so naive that she didn’t understand the worldly ways. It was just that Deng Yarong’s background and family background made her not need to fight with others in an intrigue. Life was too smooth and she had no scheming, but she was not ignorant.

"Fortunately, the Empress loves you. You were not the concubine of King Qing, otherwise I wouldn't have anyone to talk to!"

"Don't Miss Xiao Liu have a good relationship with you?"

Deng Yarong said, "She is the same as me. She will not understand these words to her. Only you can say a few heartfelt words to me!"

Deng Yarong was so relieved that Xu Shu was just because Xu Shu clearly gave up Qi Rui and would not compete with her. Xu Shu was not interested in Qi Rui's people or Qi Rui's heart. Because of this, Deng Yarong had a close attitude towards Xu Shu beyond their relationship.

"Miss, Miss Seven... Concubine Zheng is here!" Yinzhi turned his mouth stiffly.

Zheng Wanli became the concubine of King Qing, holding her own identity. When she entered Haitang Pavilion, she came in without anyone notifying her. Yinzhi was still sharp-eyed and saw it, so she hurriedly reported it.

"Well, Concubine Zheng!"

Both Xu Shu and Deng Yarong had no imperial edicts, so they could only salute Zheng Wanli according to the etiquette.

"Sister Ninth, why should we be so polite among our sisters?" Zheng Wanli helped Xu Shu up, ignored Deng Yarong who saluted her together, and then sat next to Xu Shu. Deng Yarong was sitting before that position. Deng Yarong gritted his teeth and was very resentful of Zheng Wanli's ignorance.

Zheng Wanli looked at the teacup in front of her and pretended to be like she had just seen Deng Yarong, "Grandma Qi is here too? Grandma Qi is sitting down quickly, but she didn't expect Grandma Qi to have such a good relationship with Sister Ninth!" Zheng Wanli glanced at Xu Shu, and Xu Shu had no reaction at all. Thinking about the Labaku last year, Xu Shu did not take special care of Deng Yarong, and Zheng Wanli was a little unacceptable to the relationship between Xu Shu and Zheng Wanli.

Deng Yarong started to hold her sleeves and glanced at Zheng Wanli with her eyes, "Why did Concubine Zheng come back alone today? Didn't Prince Qing accompany her?"

"The Zheng Mansion and the Prince Qing Mansion are close to each other, and they are back in a while. The prince is busy with everything, so how can he have time to do such boring things!" The smile on Zheng Wanli's face remained unabated. Deng Yarong's rank is still too low. Zheng Wanli cares about the status and glory brought to her by King Qing, not the person of King Qing.

A lot of things to do!

Deng Yarong sneered in his heart, "I have some serious things to do with that bucket of King Qing, and I don't know where I've been fooled."

Zheng Wanli glanced at the teacup that Deng Yarong had half drunk in front of her. Yuzhu came to clean up, and then smiled and said, "My sister is still drinking Dahongpao? If you are willing to do so, give me a cup of it. I don't love this Longjing, and I always feel frivolous!" Zheng Wanli said this, her eyes swept towards Deng Yarong, as if she was talking about Deng Yarong as this cup of tea.

Deng Yarong also heard the sarcastic meaning of Zheng Wanli's words and wanted to go back with irony, but he was not familiar with Zheng Wanli and couldn't think of any refutation. Even the tea Zheng Wanli wanted to drink was the same as Xu Shu. Deng Yarong sneered, turned around and was about to leave.

"I'll go back today!"
