My emperor loves thin waist

Chapter 27

"It's almost time, be quick with your hands and feet, put everything in order, don't let anything go wrong, or the superiors will blame you, and everyone can't eat and walk around!" The gray-haired middle-aged eunuch shouted in a sharp voice.

The maids lined up with food trays walked towards the Longgan Palace one by one with their tails in small steps. The sounds of clothes rubbing and hairpin rings clashing while walking were very clear in the silent palace road.

"Huh?" The round-faced lady-in-waiting who was walking in the middle of the line was about to turn, but suddenly noticed that something caught her skirt. She held the food box tightly and looked down. The dead branch at the waist caught the needle and thread at the hem of the skirt. She didn't dare to use force, for fear that it would tear apart, so she could only dodge slightly to let the maid following her continue on.

After the last maid in the team passed by, she quickly put the food box in her hand on the small rockery beside her, bent down and carefully pulled out the hem of the skirt, without even noticing the rockery, she stretched out a hand and quickly opened it up. He lifted the lid of the jug and poured a packet of medicinal powder into it...

After confirming that there was nothing wrong with her body, the little maid didn't dare to delay, she quickly picked up the food box again, followed the team with steady but rapid steps, and returned to her position.

The banquet in the palace will not be shared at the same table as ordinary people, but one table for each person.Emperor Qiyuan sat on the golden dragon banquet table in the middle of the upper head, and the first on the left and right sides of his lower head were Concubine Yan Gui and Concubine Xu Shu.Su Qinwan is from the fourth rank of Wanyi. Apart from the five old people, she has the highest status in the palace. Now she is sitting next to Jian Shuyi at the bottom of her head, and the one following her is Concubine Fang , and Liu Guipin happened to be sitting directly opposite her.

The banquet table was soon filled with all kinds of exquisite dishes, including soup, side dishes, desserts and so on.Su Qinwan looked at the beautifully decorated meals, but felt that she had no appetite at all.In the past few years, when the parents were alive, the mother would cook in person during festivals, and the family of three would sit around together, regardless of eating and sleeping, or gossiping about the family, or commenting on the mother's craftsmanship. and music.Later, when her parents passed away, she spent time with her nanny Lu Shi. Although it was a bit deserted, she was still accompanied by people who really cared and loved her.Now the room is full of prosperity and excitement, but no one is really looking forward to it, it is really lively and desolate!

After serving the meal, the female official of Shangshan stood behind her respectfully.After a while, a group of maids holding wine jugs filed in and poured wine for the masters present in order. The one who gave Su Qinwan's turn was a round-faced maid who was described as still young.

The round-faced court lady bent down and was about to fill up the wine glass in front of her, when suddenly her knees gave way and she fell to the ground, the wine pot in her hand fell to the ground with a 'slap' and smashed to pieces. The smell of wine filled Suqin Wan's surroundings.

The little palace maid turned pale with fright, she quickly knelt down and begged for mercy, but the sharp sound of the wine pot falling to the ground quickly attracted everyone's attention, Concubine Yan Gui first looked up at Zhao Hongyou, who was at the head, and saw that he had no intention of making a sound , had to ask, "Yu Wanyi, what happened?"

Su Qinwan frowned slightly, and couldn't understand why the other party fell so well, it can be seen that the little maid was already trembling with fright, even pleading guilty was trembling non-stop, her heart softened.

"The concubine couldn't hold it steady for a while, and knocked over the jug, which disturbed the holy car, and I ask the emperor to forgive me!" She didn't have time to think, she got up and bowed to the head of the crowd.

With the emperor here, it was naturally inconvenient for Concubine Yan Gui to make decisions, so she just turned her head to look at Zhao Hongyou who said nothing.

"My concubine doesn't need to blame herself for something unexpected. If you want to pursue it, it's because the servants are not reliable." Zhao Hongyou's voice was flat, and he couldn't hear the joy or anger, but his eyes turned to the little palace maid who was still kneeling on the ground trembling.

"Take it down and learn the rules!" One sentence sealed the ending.

As for what kind of punishment the little maid would face after being taken down, it was out of Su Qinwan's control. She was not kind enough to defy the emperor's will in public in order to plead with strangers.

The serving lady who had been standing behind Su Qinwan quickly took out her handkerchief and gently wiped off the wine stains on her skirt. Fortunately, there was a banquet table in the way, so there was not much wine splashed on her body. .

But in a short while, a eunuch came in and took the little maid down, and replaced it with another older maid, who poured wine for Su Qinwan calmly.

When the banquet was played to add to the fun, everyone quickly put aside this little episode, and Liu Guipin had to lower his head to hide the regrettable expression on his face.

Zhao Hongyou raised his cup and drank first, and the concubines in the harem, headed by Concubine Yan Gui, toasted in turn to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival together!
