Stop acting, Your Majesty, the queen knows you're faking it

Chapter 88
"The vitality of a hundred flowers corresponds to the vigorous spring. The spring feast with hundred flower tea should be more brilliant, so how can it lose its reputation?" Chi Xinian asked with a smile.

Concubine Xue Shu was blocked by her and couldn't say a word.

A bright face was red and white at times, and it seemed that she was very angry.

After a long while, she gritted her teeth and said: "What a sharp mouth, it seems that I underestimated the queen in the past!"

"Really? Then just raise your eyes from now on." Chi Xinian bent his lips to serve the tea, still looking calm, making Concubine Shu's teeth itch.

"What are you talking about?!" Just now, she just wanted to satirize her self-satisfaction and deceive everyone with smooth words, but this person is good, she actually acquiesced that she is better at it, and told her to set her sights higher in the future ?

Concubine Xue Shu, who was already in a bad mood, was almost fainted by Chi Xinian's shamelessness.

However, Yan Chujing, who was not supposed to appear in the morning, came at this time.

"Didn't the Queen just say it well? Hundreds of flowers respond to spring, so it can be seen that she has spent enough time thinking about it. Could it be that Concubine Shu has a better idea?" Yan Chujing didn't ask anyone to pass it on, so he took a small path to the banquet After that, he sat down directly beside Chi Xinian.

"See Your Majesty, all blessings, Your Majesty..." Chi Xinian hurriedly got up and wanted to pay homage.

But she hadn't finished the ceremony, so Yan Chujing held her hand and sat down again: "It's just a small party in the harem, the queen can do whatever she wants, and there is no need to bring all the concubines to present a big gift to me.

After saying that, he still kindly looked at the concubines in the seats below, and raised his hand to signal that they don't need to be too polite.

It's rare for the emperor to be so approachable, and the concubines who had shrunk their necks and dared not move because of Concubine Shu's attack on the queen just now relaxed again.

They thanked Yan Chujing with a smile, and then sat back in the banquet with ease.

Some bold ones even started whispering again to the familiar sisters around them.

The atmosphere of the banquet became relaxed again.

Only the atmosphere on Concubine Shu's side became more oppressive, even almost gloomy.

Just now His Majesty's words seemed tolerant and magnanimous, and he didn't mention anything wrong with her, but in fact he pointed at her everywhere!
Especially at the end, in front of everyone, he said calmly that the spring banquet was just an ordinary small gathering!
what does he mean?Did he deliberately contradict her? !

She just blamed the queen for not preparing properly for the importance of the spring banquet, and he said that the spring banquet is just an ordinary small gathering, and there is no need to be too solemn... Such a denial is like a loud slap in the face, making her feel The face is hot and painful!
Look at those low-ranking concubines who are smiling...

Even if their laughter had nothing to do with her, even if they were just discussing today's fruit tea and refreshments, she still felt that they were mocking her secretly.

After all, she was always the center in the past, but today... was forgotten.

"Your Majesty, this concubine just thinks that this is a banquet ordered by the former emperor, and it is already inappropriate to reduce the cost. Now it is somewhat disrespectful to replace the tea with... ordinary scented tea." Concubine Shu is not like Chi. Xi Nian was so eloquent, so he could only pull out the first emperor as a shield.

Even if the present sage doesn't have a deep relationship with the late emperor, at least he won't show it in front of so many people.

In this way, she can take advantage of the relationship between the former emperor and her aunt to save some face for herself...
