Chapter 376 Sudden Changes in the Palace Banquet

Si Lian raised her eyebrows when she heard that,
"What else did you hear?"

The little girl said,

"When the servant girl was picking up the curtain outside, she vaguely heard that there seemed to be something wrong in the palace, and it was a big deal..."

"Something happened in the palace?"

Send that little girl away, Silian thought for a while and ordered,

"No matter what, let's go and have a look!"

Silian asked the maids to change their clothes and comb their hair, but Cuixi pouted and said,
"Ma'am, it's true. When I have something to do, I think of our eighth young lady. When I have nothing to do, I'm afraid that our eighth young lady will seize the power. The shopping in the mansion was done by our young lady. It's really critical. Now, she doesn't need our young lady, but now she thinks about something again!"

Mama Wang glared at her.
"Can you talk too much about the affairs of the masters? Why don't you go out to fetch water and wash the young lady's hands!"

Cuixi pouted and went out, but what she said was true, the shopping was thankless, Liu Shi gave it to Silian, but it is really ready now, and when the New Year's Eve dinner is held today, she will bring Guan Shi went to the palace, but all the affairs in the mansion were handed over to her capable mother-in-law, and Fifth Miss Xiulan was on the side to direct. Fifth Miss was introverted and young, and she would not interfere in these things What happened, but Mrs. Liu said that her daughter is getting older, and she will be the mistress of the family when she gets married. When she learns to do this, she asked her little daughter to pick the peaches as a face. People in the house don't know. But when the people around Silian heard about it, they were all upset.
"Ma'am, this is crossing the river and breaking the bridge. Why can't she let Fifth Miss do the shopping? Isn't it because she knows that the people on the kitchen stove and the people in charge of the outer courtyard are thorny people who are difficult to deal with?"

Si Lian is young, but she has seen a lot outside, her heart is like a mirror, she didn't say much after hearing the girls' complaints, she just smiled and said,
"It's okay... I don't want to be in the limelight in this mansion!"

Mou Biao is a concubine, and she will live alone in the future. If she is in the limelight in this mansion, she will offend the two serious daughters-in-law, especially when Youshi is away from home again, and will not return until two or three years later. Coming to the capital, I'm afraid she will still fight with the Guan family, and she won't get any benefits, so why bother to get into this muddy water?
Mama Wang knew what was on her mind,
"Young Madam is a perceptive..."

While combing her hair, he said,

"It seems that today's matter is not small, and you have an idea in your heart. We can't take care of things that shouldn't be ours!"

Silian nodded,

"Ba Ye is the youngest son in this mansion, no matter what happens, he should be the brother and sister-in-law who stand up, and it's not my turn!"

After she changed her clothes, she braved the wind and snow in the new year and went to the front. When she arrived at the front hall, Mrs. Liu was sitting in the upper seat waiting for her. Beckon when she comes,

"Old eighth daughter-in-law, come here..."

Silian went to salute,

"Mother..."

Mrs. Liu asked her to sit at the bottom. Although she tried her best to be calm, she still could not hide the lingering fear on her face.

"The eighth daughter-in-law..."

She stretched out her hand and took Silian's hand, just about to speak, she looked around and ordered,
"You all go down!"

"Yes!"

The maids and women in the hall retreated to the porch outside, and the thick cotton curtains were lowered to block the voices inside, Liu said,
"Old eighth daughter-in-law, I'm going to celebrate the New Year in the palace today, do you know what happened?"

Speaking of this, recalling the scene in the palace, the fear on her face was no longer concealed, her eyes widened, her breath became heavy, Si Lian asked,
"Mother-in-law, what happened in the palace?"

Liu Shi bit her lip, hesitated for a while and finally said,

"An accident happened to Concubine Li Gui in the palace... From what I can see, it's probably about the witchcraft and nightmare curse..."

Si Lian was shocked when she heard the words,
"Witch Gu Nightmare Curse?"

This is no small matter!
Practicing witchcraft in the palace is taboo for the emperor no matter which dynasty or generation!
What's more, today's prince and emperor...

Si Lian's brows twitched at the thought of this,
Could it be... this is what they started to do?

Don't want to live in peace for years?
So... Is this the prince's plan, or did His Majesty the Emperor act in advance?

Si Lian raised her eyes to look at Liu Shi, but saw a wry smile from the corner of her mouth,
"Your father-in-law was summoned by His Majesty, and even the eighth son was summoned into the palace. When we came out of the palace, he met us face to face, and asked me to come back and tell you, so that you can celebrate the New Year with peace of mind. Worry about him!"

Si Lian also smiled wryly when she heard that,
"How can you feel at ease with such a big matter?"

The pillars of the family have all been called into the palace, how can they celebrate the New Year at home with peace of mind?
Silian thought for a while and asked,
"Mother-in-law, what is going on, do you know the reason for it?"

Liu sighed and said,
"Why didn't I know, when that happened, I watched it for real..."

It is said that Mrs. Liu brought her second daughter-in-law into the palace. At the beginning, everything was normal. She has been a third-grade lady for many years. Pregnant daughter-in-law, it's freezing cold, most of her thoughts are on her daughter-in-law's belly, and half of her thoughts are on socializing with others.

After the wives greeted the Empress of the Central Palace to congratulate the new year, everyone sat down according to their ranks, and the Guan family has no ranks, so they can only stand behind her to serve, but the empress is careful and knows that Commander Mou The second daughter-in-law of the family was pregnant, and even sent a female palace to give a seat. Liu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law knelt down to thank their mother. , the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law sat down again under the envious and jealous eyes of the crowd. There were songs and dances in the palace, and the crowd watched a large pile of delicious food in front of them, but they could only sit upright and watch with a smile on their faces.

It is said that these wives are all wearing what they wear on their bodies, and what they wear on their heads weighs more than a dozen catties. If they sit there with their backs upright, it is difficult for them to last for several hours, and they have to pile up all over their faces. Smiling and chatting with the people around me, as for the singing and dancing in the palace, I don't know if it's good or not, as long as it's lively enough!
When the accident happened, all the wives took turns to toast the empress. Some clever ones stood there and said a few more compliments, and some stupid ones just drank the wine and retreated. When they arrived at the Liu family, the Empress specifically asked the two sons-in-law in the family, and mentioned Mou Biao,

"I heard that the old boy in your family is working outside, and he accompanied the crown prince to help the disaster. He made some contributions. After the crown prince returned to the palace, he once mentioned in front of the palace that Mu Shuren raised a good son. !"

The empress's skin is fair, her face is like a full moon, her brows are kind, her mouth smiles when she speaks, her bearing is dignified, her appearance is majestic, and she really has the style of the mother of the country.
Mrs. Liu hurriedly saluted,

"I don't dare to claim credit for working for His Royal Highness, it's the dog's job, and I can't deserve the praise of the empress!"

The Empress laughed,

"The kid in your family, Bengong, still knows it. He was famous in the capital for his naughty temper when he was young. I didn't expect that after getting married, he took a lot of temper. It seems that the old saying goes that when a man starts a family and a career, men really want to get married. Only then can we really prop up the portal!"

When Mrs. Liu heard the words "holding up the door", her heart skipped a beat.

"The empress is drunk. The eighth son is a concubine. Even if he is appreciated by His Royal Highness, how can he still take over the family of the Mou family?"

She muttered in her heart, but she didn't show a smile on her face and said,

"Your Majesty is absurd!"

After saying this, Mrs. Liu led Mrs. Guan to Concubine Li Gui, and then Concubine Shu. After a round of toasting, she couldn't stand it, not to mention Mrs. Guan, and hurriedly helped the maid. It was a coincidence that the song and dance in the hall ended at this time, and this song was four slender women in red gauze who stepped forward. As thin as a willow, the face is covered with red gauze, the chest is wrapped in red gauze, and the head is also a long skirt of red gauze. Golden bells are all dropped on the edge of the red gauze, and they make crisp bells when they walk. The red gauze became shockingly whiter.

As soon as they came up, they twisted their waists. After the bell rang rhythmically, they immediately stretched their limbs and danced. Liu turned around and stood a little, avoiding the back. At this moment, the four dancers were already swinging their waists towards Concubine Li Gui danced over there,
"Jingle bell... Jingle bell..."

The delicate bell rang rhythmically, and Liu Shi didn't notice anything when she heard it, but Li Guifei, who was toasting and drinking over there, changed her face, she swayed twice,

"Dang..."

With a sound, the jade cup in their hands fell on the table. Everyone was shocked when they heard it, and they all turned their heads to look. Mrs. Liu was very close, and she could see clearly that Concubine Li Gui's neck was protruding like a tree-like vein. It spread all the way to her cheeks, Concubine Li Gui's better face was covered with blue in the blink of an eye, and then her eyes turned red...

The maid beside her didn't know what happened, so she stepped forward to help the master,
"Miss!"

Concubine Li Gui swayed a few times, then suddenly threw away the maid beside her, screamed and rushed towards the Empress Empress, the long nails in her hands were aimed at Empress Empress Liang's face. It was too fast, and everyone had no time to react in the future. Only the maid beside the empress responded in time, and stepped forward to block the empress.
"what……"

The palace maid's screams resounded throughout the palace at that time, Liu saw that the armor on the little finger of Li Guifei's right hand went deep into the palace maid's eyes, and then with a force, the palace maid's eyeballs were pulled out Come out, bloody hanging on Concubine Li Gui's armor,

"Ah ah ah..."

Perhaps none of the people in the palace saw the eyeballs on the armor clearly, but the blood gushing out of the palace maid's eye sockets immediately wet half of her face, and everyone could see clearly, so screams came and went, and the hall was filled with blood for a while. There was a mess in the middle, Mrs. Liu was the wife of the Commander of Jin Yiwei, she was also a person who had walked through the mountain of corpses and blood, she was more courageous than others, her eyes were fixed on Concubine Li Gui, seeing After she picked out the maid's eyeball, she pushed her away and threw herself at the empress...

At this moment, the maid blocked her, the empress recovered her senses, and took several steps back, and the maids on both sides stepped forward to block her, so Concubine Li Gui's long nails couldn't catch the unexpected effect.

"what……"

Concubine Li's hands scratched the face of a palace lady, and ten bloodstains appeared on that palace lady's face. She didn't know how to make it, Liu saw the eyeball hanging on her little finger flying up, and it was about to hit her. On the face of Guan Shi beside her, Guan Shi dazedly stretched out his hand to wipe it, touched the blood on his hand and a fresh eyeball,
"what……"

Mrs. Guan screamed, and fell down as soon as her body became weak. Mrs. Liu hurriedly reached out to catch her daughter-in-law. At this time, the hall was in chaos. To find out what happened, Mrs. Liu was afraid that others would step on Mrs. Guan's stomach, so she hurriedly dragged her to the side of the palace pillar. While pinching her daughter-in-law, she raised her head and was concerned about the situation in the palace. The concubine Li Gui looks like a mad tiger, and those ten long nails are like ten small knives. She grabs anyone she sees, but everyone who steps forward has wounds on her face. This palace is full of weaklings. Woman, Concubine Li Gui's status is not much lower than that of a queen. No matter whether it is a court lady or a concubine, she only dares to stop her. The scarlet Concubine Li Gui, who was making strange noises from her mouth, chased after the empress...

Mrs. Liu watched coldly from the sidelines. Seeing the situation in such a chaotic state, she did not think of anything else. She just thought that Concubine Li Gui suddenly went insane, and that Concubine Li Gui and the Empress had always been at odds, and she suddenly went crazy. The one who wants to scratch her face is the Empress Empress!

During this New Year's Eve, the palace was filled with wives, and Concubine Li Gui chased after the empress like crazy. It was spread that the royal face was really stepped on the ground, and Mrs. Liu saw the empress dodging from left to right, and went around in the hall. In a circle, he turned to the back of the palace pillar behind him!
"Ow..."

Concubine Li Gui uttered a cry and rushed over. At this time, the corolla on her head had long since fallen off, and the golden hairpin and phoenix tine on her head had fallen out of nowhere. The palace was full of people running around, and the gorgeous palace robes that dragged the floor had already been taken off during the run. Naturally, they ran much faster than the empress. When it happened to her daughter-in-law, Liu's desperation didn't care about her dignity, so she reached out and grabbed Concubine Li's foot, and pulled it into her arms...

"Pfft..."

Concubine Li Guifei lost her center of gravity and fell on her back. She pulled the tablecloth while waving her hands wildly, the cups and plates on it slipped off, and a jug overturned.
"Whoa..."

The lid of the jug came off, and the amber wine inside poured over her head and face. Concubine Li Gui was aroused by this, she suddenly twitched, her eyes turned white, and she fell limp there...

　Dear friends, it is slowly recovering. Wait for two more days and you should be able to return to the previous update. You will not know the importance of good health until the sun passes. May everyone be safe and healthy!
