Chapter 408
There was silence in the hall, although the meal was good, but Ye Siwei's taste had already been raised, and she was still thinking about things at this time, and she had eaten a lot of pastries before. For this lunch, Ye Siwei can be said to have no taste.
Not only Ye Siwei, but even the Queen Mother only tasted a few bites before putting down the chopsticks. Obviously, the Queen Mother either felt that the diet was unappetizing, or she felt dislike for such an environment. In this regard, Ye Siwei paid attention to it, after all, compared to others, she was much more absent-minded.
"Chunxie, you go back in a while and see if there is anything to eat in the kitchen. Try to take some food suitable for the Queen Mother to go to the pavilion in the imperial garden. Immediately, Ye Siwei pulled over the spring pavilion beside her and whispered.
Of course, with so many people, she was sitting almost at the same level as the queen, which was high-profile enough. Now, if Chunxie is allowed to leave directly, it will be even more difficult to say. Moreover, even if Chunxie goes to get food now, it is impossible to take it directly to this Yikun Palace, after all, wouldn't that directly slap the queen in the face? It is better to let Chunxie pick it up when he leaves for a while.
This lunch didn't last long, but Ye Siwei was a little bored with nothing to do. Naturally, this time, in Ye Siwei's perception, feels a little long.
Finally, when everyone finished eating, the palace people came to clean up. But these palace people are still cautious, and they don't dare to make their voices louder at all. In the hall, although everyone looked at each other from afar, the atmosphere was still silent when no one spoke first.
Ye Siwei's gaze turned to the queen on the side, looking at this, if the queen didn't speak, it was estimated that no one would take the lead in speaking. However, on weekdays, Concubine Shu likes to interject the most, and today I don't know why, but from just now to now, she hasn't said a word.
After waiting for a while, many people's eyes fell on the queen, and the queen finally spoke: "This lunch has also been used, if you want to take a lunch break, several side halls in Yikun Palace have been sorted out, you can go to rest." If you don't want to rest, you can talk together in this hall. ”
Ye Siwei has no habit of taking a lunch break on weekdays, so she is naturally more inclined to stay in this hall. Although the atmosphere in this hall is a little depressing, it is very possible now, and she will say something that she has been wanting to know since just now.
However, Ye Siwei only thought about it for a moment, and her eyes fell on the Queen Mother. Today, the Queen Mother got up very early, and the Queen Mother usually has the habit of taking a nap. Now, although the Queen Mother looks energetic, if it is an afternoon, it will be a little tiring for the Queen Mother. Moreover, the Queen Mother was not in good health, but she has only recently gotten better, and it is not suitable for tiredness.
After the queen said this, everyone just shook their heads, and no one proposed to go to the lunch break. In today's situation, even if there is some sleepiness, everyone would rather choose to hold on. After all, the reason why these entered the palace was for a certain purpose. Even if there is no purpose, those people are more or less shy or uncomfortable, so they prefer to sit in this great hall.
"Can the queen mother arrange a palace maid to help lead the way? The queen mother's body can't hold on, so the concubine will accompany the queen mother to rest. Seeing that no one made a sound, Ye Siwei hesitated for a while, but finally made a decision.
Between her own curiosity and the Queen Mother's body, Ye Siwei finally chose to focus on the Queen Mother's body. After all, all she cared about was the three people she had mentioned. Now, I have also seen Zhang Jia Xuelan among them, although I haven't been able to see the others, but this does not mean that there will be no opportunities in the future. Moreover, if there is really no chance to see each other again, then doesn't it mean that these two people will not enter the palace? If this is the case, then there is no difference between these two people, even if they see each other or not. But now, it is the Queen Mother's body that matters. If the Queen Mother is tired and her illness recurs, it may not be able to make up for it.
Moreover, during the period of dining, Ye Siwei looked at all the people sitting in the main hall. Zhang Jia Xuelan, who had seen her before, was only sitting under the four concubines. And with An Youling's identity, it should not be far from Zhang Jia Xuelan. Coupled with the name of the first beauty, Ye Siwei had a little guess in her heart after comparing her appearance.
Among the people present, there is indeed a woman with outstanding appearance. It's just that maybe it's because I've seen too many celebrities in modern times, or maybe after entering the palace, Ye Siwei has seen too many beauties, forming aesthetic fatigue or what, this person who is suspected to be An Youling, although his appearance is outstanding, but he doesn't have a memorable feeling. Moreover, this person's eyes are not as aura as Zhang Jia Xuelan, so the whole person actually looks a little dull.
As for that Si Jiabai, there is too little information known, and Ye Siwei just wants to find it, but there is no way to find it. Moreover, even if he really stayed in this hall, in fact, it is actually uncertain whether Si Jiabai can know who this person is. For the sake of this uncertain thing, let the Queen Mother accompany her, and Ye Siwei would definitely not do it.
"I wanted to ask before, I don't know what this lady is?" The queen had not yet responded to Ye Siwei's words, but here, Zhang Jia Xuelan turned her eyes around Ye Siwei's body, and finally asked the doubts in the hearts of many people present, "Can you sit almost on level with the queen's mother, this lady is the imperial concubine?" It's just that the little girl doesn't seem to have heard that there is an extra imperial concubine in Kyoto. I don't know if it's because the little girl is on the frontier all the year round, so she is lonely and unheard. ”
With Zhang Jia Xuelan's voice, the other young ladies who didn't know the situation were okay, although they knew that there was no imperial concubine in this palace, they didn't feel that Ye Siwei's status would be low. However, the concubines in this palace knew what Ye Siwei's position was, and when they heard the words at this time, their faces turned pale, and they were probably frightened by Zhang Jiaxuelan's words.
In addition, the faces of the fourth concubine and the queen can be imagined, and they looked very ugly for a while. Although, most of them only had a moment, and they recovered immediately. However, when several people looked at Ye Siwei, there was a bit of jealousy in their eyes.
"This young lady is serious, the concubine can't be this mother, but it really torments me. Ye Siwei was also quite helpless about this, who knows, this chapter Jia Xuelan is silent, this voice almost made Ye Siwei offend the whole palace again. But no matter how helpless she is, Ye Siwei must also explain out loud, otherwise, it must not be considered a tacit acquiescence.
"It's not a lady? Could it be that it's a lady? The little girl is clumsy, please don't blame the lady. Zhang Jia Xuelan was stunned for a moment, rolled her eyes, and then reacted and spoke again.
It was Ye Siwei, the smile that was originally forcibly pulled out, but now it directly turned into a bitter smile. For Zhang Jia Xuelan, Ye Siwei was really a little crying and laughing. If it weren't for the occasion, because of her identity, she really wanted to show that she was to blame. After all, although Zhang Jia Xuelan said that she was unintentional, these two words were all forcing her to a dead end.
"No, no, don't make fun of the concubine, the concubine is just a small nobleman in this palace, and she can't be called a lady, let alone a lady. Ye Siwei practiced waving her hands, although there was almost no possibility, Ye Siwei still hoped that these people could make their hostility towards her lower.
"Nobleman, why ......" Zhang Jia Xuelan's eyes were full of doubts, and she didn't even say a word to Ye Siwei anymore, and sat down. However, Zhang Jia Xuelan can't be blamed for anything, she guessed wrong twice in a row, and it is estimated that the blow to her is still a bit big. Even if he sat back, he was obviously still in shock, and the whole person looked a little dumbfounded.
Not only Zhang Jia Xuelan, but everyone who had guessed Ye Siwei's identity before, all of them were almost as surprised as Zhang Jia Xuelan at this time. After all, Ye Siwei sits beside the Queen Mother as a little nobleman, and she is almost in the same position as the queen, who would have thought that her status would be so low.
In addition, the palace people who have known Ye Siwei's identity for a long time, some people's faces have already carried undisguised ridicule at this time. For Ye Siwei's low status, but she can still enjoy the treatment they don't have, how to make them one by one not jealous.
Ye Siwei had a full view of the expressions present, after all, her position was so good that it was difficult to see it. It's just that no matter what these people think, Ye Siwei doesn't want to care or care about anything. Now, she has almost become the target of public criticism again, not to mention that she has no idea of staying in the first place, even if she has, she will just want to leave at this time.
However, since the meal just now, the Queen Mother has not spoken again, and Ye Siwei can't help but look at it with some curiosity at this time. Who knows, the Queen Mother, who looked quite energetic before, is tired on her face at this time, and the Queen Mother's eyes are still closed, looking like she will fall asleep at any time.
Although I don't understand, not long ago, the queen mother, who was still upright, suddenly became trapped like this. Whether it's out of concern for the Queen Mother, or just finding a good excuse to leave. Ye Siwei didn't delay too much, she looked at the queen and said: "Queen Mother, the Queen Mother is already sleepy, let's ask a palace maid to lead the way first, and let the Queen Mother rest first." ”
"It's nature. Fu Na, you take the Queen Mother and the Wat nobles to the main side hall to rest. "No matter what the queen thinks, but it is a fact that the queen mother is sleepy at this time, that is, the queen is no longer willing to let Ye Siwei leave, and she has to let go at this time.
As for the others, it is even more difficult to speak. could only watch Ye Siwei leave the hall with the Queen Mother. Even those others who were still curious had to let go of the doubts in their hearts at this time, and find another opportunity to ask Ye Siwei something.
However, it is conceivable that in the afternoon, if Ye Siwei reappears in the imperial garden, it is estimated that she will not be as idle as in the morning, and there will not be a few people who want to talk to her. After all, there are many people who are curious about Ye Siwei, and even watching Ye Siwei be favored in front of the Queen Mother, it is not for nothing that people want to stutter.
Of course, Ye Siwei will not know all this now. At this moment, all Ye Siwei's thoughts were on the Queen Mother. Because, in the main hall just now, the queen mother, who was still drowsy, was a little more energetic not long after she left the main hall. If that's all it takes, after all, the current Queen Mother is walking. However, after arriving at the side hall, the palace maid who led the way retreated, and said goodbye to the queen mother, where there was still a trace of sleepiness, and there was still a glint in her eyes.
"Queen Mother?" Ye Siwei sent the palace maid away, and when she turned around, she was almost frightened by such a queen mother.
"The mourning family is pretending to be good, isn't it? On an occasion like the one just now, the mourning family is not easy to speak for you openly. After all, if the mourning family defends you, those people don't know how they will be jealous of you and make a stumbling block behind your back. But those people, you don't have to pay too much attention to them, there are mourning families. Looking at Ye Siwei, the Queen Mother was smiling at this time, and her eyes were full of pampering.
So far, Ye Siwei still has something she doesn't understand. The sleepiness just now was all pretended by the Queen Mother. This purpose, since it is just to help Ye Siwei get out of the predicament just now. Although it is said that for the Queen Mother, it is actually just a matter of one sentence, but the Queen Mother chose this method to minimize the damage to Ye Siwei as much as possible. If it wasn't really for Ye Siwei, why did the Queen Mother do this?
"It's the mourning family who doesn't think about it well, and just wants you to sit next to the mourning family, so that the mourning family can see you when they turn their heads. I haven't been in contact with the harem for a long time, but I have ignored it, and it's not good for you to do this. Without waiting for Ye Siwei to answer, the Queen Mother sighed again, her tone was full of helplessness, and even a little self-blame.
"How can this be blamed on the Queen Mother?" Ye Siwei immediately retorted. Although, the Queen Mother's actions did push her to the position of public criticism, not to mention that Ye Siwei had long been accustomed to being hostile to the palace. What's more, how did she not know that the Queen Mother did this just because she liked her. If it weren't for the Queen Mother's spoiled her, with the Queen Mother's temperament, how would she go to the Imperial Garden, let alone go to this Laoshzi banquet.
The Queen Mother has always treated her sincerely, how could she harm Ye Siwei. Really, the only one who will harm Ye Siwei is the hateful emperor. 10
