Chapter 165 Palace Banquet (3) Slap in the face, fight!(1/5)
Cold plum banquet.
Everyone held their breath.
The cold wind rises slightly.
It was so cold that people trembled, but no one dared to tremble.
It is because Concubine Shu, Zhao Mengyu's face was extremely cold at this moment.
She even doubted whether Ye Qichi did it on purpose.
Deliberately disrespect her.
He actually used this kind of word to deal with her.
She had never seen words that were more ugly than Ye Qichi.
But due to her identity, there are rumors among the officials of this court that the King of Chu and King Chen are incompatible. If she targets Ye Qichi, she will be in trouble.
So, I still prepared to carefully identify her handwriting and read it out.
Just made this move.
"The Empress Dowager is here!"
A notice.
Everyone stood up from their position quickly.
The same is true for Zhao Mengyu.
She quickly got up and greeted her very enthusiastically.
Although the Empress Dowager has been living in the palace for many years, because of her noble status, the concubines in the harem naturally dare not be negligent.
Zhao Mengyu quickly saluted, "See the Queen Mother."
The others also hurriedly bowed.
"See the Queen Mother."
"Get up all ladies." Wen Jingtan greeted.
"Mrs. Thank you."
Everyone is extremely respectful.
Zhao Mengyu quickly asked the palace servant to arrange for the seat.
Wen Jingtan asked after sitting down, "I heard that the emperor invited ministers and female relatives on the Winter Solstice. Because he was idle, he came to join in the fun."
"If the mother can come, it must be the honor of my concubine to make the cold plum feast shine."
"You are so good at speaking with your mouth, no wonder the emperor favors you alone." Wen Jingtan said as if jokingly.
In fact, she was criticizing her, not knowing how to spread the royal family.
Xiao Zhanping has only a handful of descendants.
The prince died a few days ago, and the population became even thinner.
"My mother blamed me for being wrong. A few days ago, I chose many beauties for the emperor. The most outstanding ones are the two below, Concubine Ran and Concubine Sheng. Come here and have a good look for the Queen Mother."
Liu Xinran and Qin Junsheng hurried forward, knelt down and bowed, "I will meet the Queen Mother."
"Raise your head and let the Ai family take a look." Wen Jingtan ordered.
Liu Xinran and Qin Junsheng quickly raised their heads shyly.
Wen Jingtan nodded and praised, "It's really a bit beautiful."
"Not only is it extraordinary, but it is also talented." Zhao Mengyu quickly expressed his positive performance, "Eunuch Wen, show the poems of the two little masters today to the Queen Mother."
"Slaves obey the order."
Eunuch Wen found the poem written by Liu Xinran and Qin Junsheng and respectfully handed it to Wen Jingtan.
Wen Jingtan took it over and took a look, and praised, "The poems are good, and the running script is good."
After saying that.
He said to Zhao Mengyu again, "You have put your heart into this talent show."
"I should do it. I thank the Queen Mother for affirmation. I will definitely assist the emperor in managing the harem and will definitely spread the branches and leaves for the emperor." Zhao Mengyu hurriedly expressed his attitude.
"In this way, the Ai family will feel relieved." Wen Jingtan nodded and asked again, "What are you doing now?"
"I went back to the Queen Mother. Today, the plum blossoms were blooming and the scenery was picturesque. I asked the little ladies and ladies to recite poems and write poems. I gave them a stick of incense and wrote poems."
"Have you done it all?" Wen Jingtan asked.
“It’s done.”
"I miss you all the Ai family."
"I obey the order."
Zhao Mengyu quickly read everyone's poems to the Empress Dowager again.
The Empress Dowager was in a happy mood when she listened.
Everyone's poems also commented on two sentences.
Then he asked, "Why didn't you see Princess Chen's poem."
"When you come back to the Queen Mother, when you come here, there is only Princess Chen's poem before you read it, so I will read the poems of others first. I will read the poems of Princess Chen now." Zhao Mengyu replied quickly.
I also knew in my heart that because Wen Jingtan kept Xiao Jinxing by her side since she was a child, she naturally favored Xiao Jinxing more.
Wen Jingtan now deliberately mentioned Ye Qichi, and she must also want to support Ye Qichi.
She wants to slap Wen Jingtan in the face now.
Thinking of this.
Zhao Mengyu picked up Ye Qichi's rice paper.
Before she recited, she took a deep breath.
Wen Jingtan naturally noticed Zhao Mengyu's small actions.
"What's the problem with Princess Chen's poem?" Wen Jingtan asked.
"No, it's just this running script..." Zhao Mengyu wanted to speak but stopped.
It looks like it is difficult to open.
"Show it to the Ai family."
"I obey the order."
Said.
Zhao Mengyu personally handed Ye Qichi's rice paper to Wen Jingtan.
Wen Jingtan looked at the words on the paper.
His face changed significantly.
Her eyes tightened and she looked directly at Ye Qichi.
Ye Qichi naturally felt Wen Jingtan's anger.
She also knew that Wen Jingtan must be here to give her a strong arrogance today.
Wen Jingtan naturally could not let Xiao Jinxing suffer grievances.
Obviously, Zhao Mengyu must be more favorable to her son.
But unexpectedly, Ye Qichi was so unsuccessful.
It's incomparable to Xie Ruiyao.
Instead, Wen Jingtan lost all her face.
"Ye Qichi, what's going on!" Wen Jingtan's face was obviously dark.
Others felt that the Queen Mother lost her temper.
They were not afraid to show off.
He was a little timid and his body was trembling.
Xie Ruotong didn't dare to look directly at that side either.
But I was worried.
I don’t know how Ye Qichi can overcome the difficulties.
Xie Ruiyao's mood is naturally very different at this moment.
She even laughed secretly.
I was also full of disdain for Ye Qichi.
