Chapter 56, Geng Guiren's Shot (2/4)
"Sister Li, it's all wrong for us to say bad things about Concubine Yao behind his back." - Now that we can pass this level by apologizing and admitting our mistake, why bother to come to Concubine Qi?
An agreed to the words "After all, we are wrong", which made Li Changzi blush. With Concubine Qi as the decision, are you still afraid that a noble person would not be able to succeed? Concubine Qi had long been very sad and jealous of Concubine Yao!
Geng Guiren beside him frowned. Li Chang was always ruthless in his power over Concubine Qi, and Concubine Qi kept protecting her. If he really made trouble with Concubine Qi, Concubine Qi might not be able to deal with it impartially. However, Concubine Yao was favored. If he kept making trouble, and then to the queen or even to the emperor, the one who won in the end would definitely be Concubine Yao. But... If he really made trouble with the emperor and the queen for this little thing, Concubine Yao would also be arrogant and domineering, and it would be hard to be named.
Geng Guiren coughed twice, "Li Changzai, Concubine Qi has been treating you well over the years. But you rely on her favor to cause trouble for her. Is this how you repay Concubine Qi?"
"I--" Li Changzai was so choked by Geng Guiren that he couldn't speak.
Geng Guiren's face was cold and solemn: "You are full of dirty words, like a shrew in the market. You know you have a mistake but have no regrets!" As he said that, Geng Guiren looked at Yao Jiaxin and said: "Sister Yao, I don't have to bother Concubine Qi anymore. Just ask the Empress to make the decision!"
As soon as these words came out, Li Changzai was really panicked. If she had troubled her, she would not be afraid. But if she had troubled her in the central palace, the Empress would have been dissatisfied with Chengqian Palace for a long time, and would definitely take this opportunity to punish her heavily!
Yao Jiaxin looked at Guiren Geng in surprise. For today's affairs, Guiren Geng could have watched the wall like Nuo Hulu.
Seeing that Yao Guiren couldn't stop looking at him, Guiren Geng smiled kindly, and then said to Li Changzai with a stern face: "What? Li Changzai still refuses to admit his mistake? He insists on following us to Jingren Palace?"
Li Changzai's face turned pale and finally stopped carrying it. She knelt on the ground with a thud, bit her lip, and said, "I have a ruthless word from my maid and I offend my nobles. Please forgive me."
When it comes to the queen, it’s fast to be cowardly.
Yao Jiaxin smiled: "I know, you admit your mistake and you will definitely be very angry."
Li Changzai bit his teeth and said, "I don't dare, I really admit my mistake."
Yao Jiaxin sneered, her teeth were about to be broken, and she said she really admitted her mistake? Li Changzai was very fun. Yao Jiaxin said lightly: "What are you doing when you kneel down? I don't know, I thought I was punishing you two to kneel!"
An agreed to see this and hurriedly said, "Thank you for your forgiveness!"
Li Changzai stood up without saying a word, gritting his teeth tightly, his cheeks tense, and he didn't know that he thought she was going to bite people.
Yao Jiaxin smiled and said, "If Li Changzai is dissatisfied, he will go back and complain to Empress Qi."
After hearing this, Li Changzai couldn't hide her surprise. She did plan so, but Yao Guiren looked unafraid.
Yao Jiaxin no longer paid attention to Li Changzai and An's agreement, but turned around and smiled at Guiren Geng, "I'm not in the mood to appreciate flowers today, so why not have the best time to enjoy tea in my palace."
Guiren Geng nodded happily.
The nobleman Niuhulu who had been pretending to be mute smiled and said, "I heard that the emperor rewarded my sister with Mingqian tea this spring. Sister Geng and I are really going to have a great treat!"
The tea for concubines is Lu'an melon slices, and the nobles only have seven taels per month. A rare tea like Longjing, which is only tributed in spring, is not something that is available for a while. For example, this year, Longjing, a longjing in the Ming Dynasty, is quickly sent to the capital in 800 miles. In addition to rewarding a few brothers who were loyal to the queen mother, the Fourth Master only had Jingren Palace. Chengqian Palace and her Yongshou Palace got two cans respectively. The empress is the central palace, so naturally she can't be missing anything. As for the gift to Chengqian Palace, it was not the reward of Concubine Qi, but because Princess Huaike liked Longjing tea.
The three nobles talked and walked away.
Li Chang's eyes were filled with anger.
An promised his eyes were full of anxiety: "Sister Li, why don't you really want to go to Concubine Qi to complain, right?"
Li Chang hesitated on his irritable face.
An agreed and hurriedly said, "Sister, it's better to have less trouble than to have more trouble. Even if it really comes to the front of Concubine Qi, will the Empress still go to Yongshou Palace to argue for us? After all, we are in the wrong. If we continue to make trouble, we will only suffer a loss!"
Although Li Changzai was full of reluctance, he understood that An agreed to make sense. She said hatefully: "Let's see! I don't believe she can always be favored!"
An agreed to breathe a sigh of relief. Although Li Chang was speaking fiercely, he had already given up. As long as Li Chang didn't make trouble, this matter would be fine.
The eastern side hall of Yongshou Palace.
The tea fragrance of tea before the Ming Dynasty was filled with it, like the orchid that had just bloomed, with a pleasant fragrance.
The three noble people tasted tea and ate exquisite and delicious snacks, which looked like the afternoons of later generations, eating, drinking, and chatting about gossip.
The plate for decorating the snacks is the latest water-blue glaze peach butterfly high-foot plate sent by the porcelain warehouse. The light blue background is as elegant as the blue sky. The painting of the phoenix butterfly plays with peach blossoms is so beautiful that it looks like a work of art. Oh no, this is originally a work of art. If it is placed in the auction house two or three hundred years later, it will definitely be a sky-high price!
Yao Jiaxin originally likes porcelain, but her wealth is limited and she can't afford antique porcelain. She likes to buy some beautiful affordable porcelain and drink tea with a small bourgeoisie.
Compared with the past, these porcelains used now are really worth throwing away!
She carefully held the same water-blue glaze peach blossom butterfly tea cup in her hand, for fear that she would throw the porcelain that could be auctioned for millions if she was not careful.
Yao Jiaxin smiled and welcomed Guiren Geng and Guiren Niuhulu: "Try this mandarin duck roll quickly, it will be delicious."
At this time, the big fat cat with red and white faces lying on the Ruyi Pattern Floor beside him made a "meow" sound, as if responding.
The nobleman Niuhulu was attracted by the cat's cry, "This is the cat raised by Sister Yao, it's really extraordinary." - The nobleman Niuhulu really doesn't understand. Everyone in the palace knows that the emperor is happy with dogs and cats, and this nobleman Yao actually raises such a fat cat.
Guiren Geng smiled and said, "It's rare for this cat to keep more dogs in this palace."
The noble man Niuhulu picked up an exquisite mandarin duck roll and ate it, and said with a smile: "Didn't the emperor reward Sister Yao, a good Jingba dog? This cat and the dog are born enemies. Sister Yao must be careful. Don't call this cat hurting the famous dog rewarded by the emperor."
Yao Jiaxin smiled, "That won't be. My cats and dogs eat and sleep with each other every day, and they are so close."
The noble man Niu Hulu covered the corners of his lips and smiled noblely: "A famous dog is a wild cat intimate? It must be a very interesting scene."
