Chapter 132

Soon, under the dazzling of the pendant, Concubine An walked in with the gong girl.

Very beautiful, even if it was reduced to the top position, the former number one beauty of Beijing was still bright and captivating at this moment.

Queen Xun couldn’t see Concubine An’s beauty the most. Her anger sank into her eyes the moment she saw her.

Of course, Concubine An realized it, but she wasn’t afraid. Instead, she felt a sense of satisfaction because of Queen Xun’s jealousy and venomous gaze, so she deliberately raised her chin.

Queen Xun really wanted to suck her stunning face.

However, she could only throw a tantrum in her heart. The incident last time was so serious that the Phoenix Sky Emperor had only gently exposed it. This showed that she, the Empress, was still unable to touch this lowly person.

After deliberately disgusted Queen Xun, Concubine An turned her gaze to the girl sitting opposite Khai.

The girl was wearing a light blue dress. A soft, watery light shone from her dress and she seemed to be shrouded in a soft light.

In comparison, she was very beautiful, extremely beautiful, but the young lady in front of her was incredibly beautiful. Even though her makeup was simple, Concubine An clearly understood that in terms of appearance, she couldn’t compare to her.

What’s more, Nangong Ning was only a teenager, and he was very young.

She suddenly remembered that the last time Nangong Ning mocked her that she was not young, the expression on Concubine An’s face instantly lost control.

Queen Xun saw Concubine An’s expression and turned gloomy again. refreshed came up.

She couldn’t compare to Concubine An, but Nangong Ning could do it and Nangong Ning’s appearance was enough to crush Concubine An.

Queen Xun’s tone became lighter and she asked, “Why is Concubine An here?”

Concubine An came back to her senses after being called. She gritted her teeth and bowed to Queen Xun according to the rules, deliberately ignoring Nangong Ning.

However, Nangong Ning didn’t care.

Nangong Ning was currently watching a scene.

The scene between Queen Xun and Concubine An, as well as the fact that Khai spent a lot of effort on her because of Namef4, could pass the time.

“Back to the Empress, the concubine is here to make up for Miss Nangong,” Concubine An saw that Nangong Ning was ignoring her and her smile did not diminish.

Queen Xun said softly, “Do you have to trouble you to come here personally?”

Concubine An smiled elegantly. “The Regent’s wedding, my concubine doesn’t dare to neglect it.”

“That’s true,” Queen Xun didn’t know what she thought of, but there was a hint of mockery in her eyes. She said, “Regarding Wang Yan’s matter, Concubine An should really take more effort.”

Concubine An was not provoked by the sarcastic words. She smiled faintly and called out.

“An Jing, bring the box over.”

The palace lady of Lihua Palace came over with a wooden case.

Queen Xun looked at the box and frowned slightly. “Concubine An, why is this box so old? You want to put on Ning’s makeup. Isn’t this too embarrassing?”

Nangong Ning saw that the box was indeed old and she looked at Concubine An.

Concubine An smiled charmingly. “The Empress doesn’t know that this box is old. It’s not because I don’t care, but it represents my sincerity.”

“Oh?” If she had known that Concubine An was a sharp-tongued person, Queen Xun did not know what kind of medicine this woman was selling.

Concubine An glanced over at Nangong Ning and smiled, “Empress, when I was still in my best friend, my father once found jade and made me a makeup box.”

“Jade?” Queen Xun was startled.

Nangong Ning didn’t react, because she didn’t know what jade was, but she knew about corn.

Concubine An looked at Queen Xun’s surprised expression with satisfaction and nodded. “Yes, it’s still the best type. It’s hard to get an inch of corn, but my father found a whole section and asked top craftsmen to make a makeup box.”

Queen Xun listened and couldn’t help but look at Nangong Ning. Seeing that Nangong Ning was calm, she couldn’t help but feel certain.

Did Concubine An say this on purpose to provoke people? Unfortunately, Nangong Ning was very calm.

“In fact, the concubine had an old contract with the Regent back then, but in the end, it was also fate. The concubine is now the Imperial Consort, and this makeup box is because my father gave her a wedding gift, so ever since I entered the palace, I have never used it.” Concubine An looked at Nangong Ning’s calm and emotionless expression, and her words were a little irritated.

However, Nangong Ning still looked like a clear, but Queen Xun’s expression changed. She couldn’t help but say angrily, “Anxin butterfly, you are the concubine of the Emperor now. Why do you mention the old things?”

No one dared to mention the engagement between Concubine An and Jun Qianye ever since she entered the palace. After all, it was not a glorious thing for a brother to snatch her brother’s wife.

However, Concubine An had actually said it at this time and Queen Xun felt quite angry.

She really wanted to let the Phoenix Emperor hear that this lowly man still remembered his old contract.

“It was the Empress who asked the concubine. The concubine is the take the matter on its merits, which means the origin of this thing. Did the Empress miss miss out on her own thoughts, so she wanted to do something?” Concubine An was not afraid, and she even looked at Queen Xun’s expression with interest.

Queen Xun was so angry that she was about to explode. This b*tch actually said that she had a bad mind.

“Rest assured butterfly!” This palace is the Empress. You’d better remember it for me!

“Yes, my concubine has always remembered,” Concubine An was still calm and gave Queen Xun a bow.

Queen Xun was so angry that her palms were exploding.

Nangong Ning looked at Queen Xun helplessly. Such combat power was really Shithead.

Looking at Queen Xun’s expression, Concubine An was very satisfied. She smiled gently and said, “Ah, it’s wrong to say it. My concubine came today for business.”

Queen Xun’s face darkened and she almost puked blood.

Concubine An didn’t dare, so she continued, “This time the prince and Miss Nangong’s wedding, the concubine thought of this makeup box. It was also white to put it in. Besides, jade is rare and worthy of Prince Regent’s dignity. So, concubine planned to use this to add makeup to Khai.”

Queen Xun frowned deeply and asked, “Concubine An, is this an old thing from ten years ago? You actually want to get some old things to make up for Ning?

“Although it’s old, it’s good stuff,” Concubine An was not satisfied at all. She even smiled and said, “Ancient are old things too. Everyone likes it very much,” she smiled and turned to Nangong Ning, who had not reacted much.

“Open it first and take a look. I haven’t seen a makeup box made of jade,” Nangong Ning said as well.

Ten years ago, the wedding ceremony was used to prepare for her to marry Jun Qianye. Now that she was going to get married with Jun Qianye, Khai had to send it over to disguise her.

It was a pity that she only had the mentality of watching the show and wasn’t triggered at all.

The box opened and there was indeed a makeup box inside.

The make-up box was very exquisite and her makeup was faint jade. She looked gloomy and ancient, elegant.

“So this is the jade make up box,” Nangong Ning nodded. “It is indeed like jade, but fake ones are always fake. Mother Concubine An’s father is quite clever.”

Concubine An’s expression darkened when she heard this and she blurted out, “Nangong Ning, what do you mean?”

Nangong Ning looked at her and smiled faintly. “Mother said that jade is expensive. If it is a whole jade make up box, which one is more expensive?”

Concubine An didn’t answer. Queen Xun took the opportunity and said, “Jade quality. If it is a top-grade jade and very valuable, the whole piece should be a be above. Although this corn has jade, it is not a real jade. No matter how rare it is, it can’t be compared to it.”

Nangong Ning nodded with a smile, “That’s right, so Elder An is really a smart person.”

Queen Xun also nodded. “Yes, Elder An has always been a smart person. The whole Donglai calendar knows.”

At this moment, when she heard their words, Concubine An’s expression seemed to have been blown away by the frost.

Nangong Ning turned to look at Concubine An and said, “Although Elder An is too shrewd, this jade make up box is also the intention of Concubine An’s mother. Besides, I also know that the Emperor’s position was lowered the last time and the treatment will be simple. Mother is not doing well now and I understand that I will accept this make up box. Thank you, Mother.”

Concubine An was so angry that she clenched her fists and her fingers were white.

At first, Nangong Ning said that her father was clever enough to use jade to create a makeup box. Now, he was sarcastic that he would use such a thing to add makeup!

“Nangong Ning, no matter how bad this jade is, haven’t you seen it before?” Concubine An was so angry that she didn’t want to lose face in front of Nangong Ning at all.

Nangong Ning smiled faintly and looked at Concubine An. pay no heed to said, “I have never seen a makeup box made of jade, because I used to think that materials like jade can only be used to build doors.”

Queen Xun almost spat out the tea when she heard this.

Of course, she was happy.

“That’s right, the financial resources of the Nangong Family are in the as everyone knows. No matter how rare jade is, in the Nangong residence, I’m afraid that I can only build doors and windows,” Queen Xun couldn’t help but cut the knife.

Concubine An’s face was livid.

She really couldn’t refute her words.

Wood was originally used to build doors and windows. Even though jade was precious, it was still only wood, just like jade.

Nangong Ning said that Nangong Prefecture used jade to build a door, so she really suspected that she wouldn’t come.

Everyone knew that Nangong Family used to be rich!

“That’s right, Empress Dowager. It’s really the first time that someone made a makeup box with jade. It’s so strange,” Nangong Ning said helplessly.

Queen Xun smiled leisurely, “This is Elder An’s own thought.”

Even Nangong Ning was almost happy.

Sometimes, Queen Xun’s knife was enough to make up for it.
