Concubine Hui came uninvited, and Concubine Liang was also afraid that Zhou Xianyu's temper would come up and cause some trouble on the spot, but everyone arrived at the palace gate, and she couldn't ask Concubine Hui to go back.

After the order went down, Concubine Liang turned her head to look at Zhou Xianyu, and then said with a warning:

"No matter how poor Concubine Hui is, she is also your father's concubine, and the royal child must not come nonsense for a while, do you understand?"

Hearing this, Zhou Xianyu, who has always been respectful and filial to the concubine, just like his own mother, immediately stood up, and then nodded in response:

"Mother concubine, don't worry, this is your Yanqing Palace, as long as Concubine Hui is not here to find trouble, the child will never be embarrassed for her here."

Just as Zhou Xianyu finished speaking and sat down firmly again, Concubine Hui had already led the two palace maids and walked in with a smile on her face.

After everyone saluted each other, Concubine Hui said in a soft voice:

"Sister Liangfei, the Holy God gave the imperial offering of lychees, this honor ** In this harem, in addition to the queen's mother, there is only your share, I heard that my sister also set up a family banquet for this, my sister has nothing to do, and I also want to have a good time, by the way, I will ask my sister for a few lychees to eat, you won't think my sister is greedy."

After looking at Concubine Hui and smiling, Concubine Liang immediately asked someone to add a place next to her, and then kindly asked the other party to take a seat quickly.

Without refusal, Concubine Hui stepped forward and sat down, and then she pointed to her again, and one of the palace people holding the tray took Concubine Liang's hand and said:

"My sister came to bother, naturally I can't eat my sister's for nothing, when I went to my place more than a month ago, I was rewarded with a pot of Western Regions wine, my sister was reluctant to drink, so I left it until now, just taking advantage of this happiness, I will take it to drink with everyone."

Hearing this, everyone looked at the wine from the Western Regions, because the wine had not been poured out, and everyone could not smell it, but when they saw the pot of wine, it was really exquisite and full of exotic customs.

This wine pot is different from the porcelain pot or jade pot used in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and this wine pot in the Western Regions is actually made of colorful glaze.

In the lid, spout, and handle, respectively, with gold wire hollow inlay, there are also a variety of precious stones and agate, especially the two round pearls inlaid on the handle, but also set off this wine pot extravagantly, ingenious.

It's just that when they see this wine jug, even if they haven't tasted the wine yet, they can't help but secretly look forward to it.

And the only thing that looked wrong was Gu Qingping, who had lost his smile since he saw this wine jug, and his expression had become extremely serious, but because he had never talked much, even if he was in an abnormal mood, he did not attract the attention of others.

Seeing Concubine Hui's kindness, Concubine Liang naturally immediately asked people to prepare new wine glasses for a taste of the grape wine of the Western Regions.

Seeing that all the wine utensils were ready, Concubine Hui whispered to Liuyue, the personal palace maid beside her:

"I'm still standing, hurry up and pour the wine for everyone who is sitting again, and then I will serve it with the lychee given by the emperor, and the taste is wonderful just thinking about it."

When Liuyue heard this, she immediately bowed down to receive the order, then picked up the wine glass, poured wine for everyone from table to table, and after a while, she poured it, and then held the wine jug and returned to the back of Concubine Hui to stand.

Seeing this, Concubine Hui immediately raised the wine glass in front of her, and then laughed coquettishly, and Concubine Tongliang said:

"This first cup of sister first respects Sister Liangfei, thanks to you in the palace all these years, my sister is grateful, drink this cup first."

As soon as she finished speaking, Concubine Hui picked up the wine glass with a soft demeanor, and really drank it all, after drinking, she wiped the corners of her mouth lightly, smiled at Concubine Liang, and waited for the other party to drink the wine too.

Seeing that the first cup was finished, Concubine Hui asked Liuyue to pour the wine again, and then picked up the wine glass and looked at everyone and said:

"This second cup of the concubine still has to pay tribute to the sister of the concubine, I want to respect her for many years in the harem, not only for the saint to give birth to two princes, but also sympathetic to the palace people, generous and virtuous, I hope you can drink this cup with me, and wish the concubine Liang, blessing Yonglu, auspicious health and peace."

Concubine Hui's words were to celebrate what Concubine Liang said, so there was no reason for anyone present not to drink this cup of wine.

Immediately, everyone stood up, raised their wine glasses, and saluted Concubine Liang, and then they were all ready to drink it all.

But at this moment, Gu Qingping, who has always been cautious in his words and deeds and deeply influenced by Confucianism, ignored the rudeness, and left the table and walked towards Xiao Jinxuan when everyone was toasting.

And stretched out his hand to stop the other party, the wine glass that was about to come to his mouth, and then said with a frown:

"Miss Jinxuan, my cup is a chrysanthemum pattern, but on your cup, it is a bamboo pattern, Qingping has loved bamboo all his life, and he has reached the point of becoming obsessed, so can you ask Miss Jinxuan to cut her love and give me the wine glass of this ink bamboo, you can use my longevity."

Hearing this, Xiao Jinxuan couldn't help but be stunned, although she didn't have a deep relationship with Gu Qingping, and she had only met twice this time.

But as far as the other party's conduct and conversation are concerned, it stands to reason that he would never do something to rob her of wine in public because he loves bamboo, such a rude act doesn't look like this Gu Dagongzi can do it.

Xiao Jinxuan's expression did not change immediately, but she took the cup in her hand back and did not hand it to the other party, but said with a light smile;

"This is really a coincidence, the set of wine utensils prepared by Concubine Liang today, if Jinxuan is not mistaken, it is a set of wine glasses fired with the theme of the four gentlemen in the flowers, Meilan Zhuju. But among these four flowers, I love the same as Gu Gongzi, and the one I love the most is Mozhu, and a gentleman can't win people's love, so this wine glass can't be exchanged with Gongzi. ”

As soon as he heard this, Gu Qingping, who was originally a little tense and looked extremely unnatural, flashed a panicked look in his eyes.

And his subtle emotional change did not escape Xiao Jinxuan's eyes at all, and immediately her heart sank, understanding that there was probably something wrong with her glass of wine.

In fact, Xiao Jinxuan's words just now were just a tentative remark to Gu Qingping.

Because the other party's behavior was really abnormal, she had already thought that maybe the other party had noticed something, so she insisted on replacing her wine glass.

But now that he knows that there is a problem with the wine, of course Xiao Jinxuan will not drink it.

But in the same way, it is impossible for her to watch Gu Qingping exchange the wine and drink it for her, so abandoning others and preserving her own affairs, Xiao Jinxuan asked herself if she could do it.

And between the two of them, this time they were arguing endlessly for the sake of wine glasses, which immediately made everyone present notice something unusual.

Especially Concubine Liang, she has lived in the harem for many years, and she has never seen any insidious deeds and methods of fighting for the best, so she immediately looked at Concubine Hui with a condensed face.

And Zhou Xianyu and Zhou Xianrui, who also grew up in the palace, immediately glanced at each other, these two brothers are both people with excellent minds, even if it is clear, Xiao Jinxuan is in trouble.

And the next moment, before others could react, Zhou Xianyu had already stood up with a cold face, came to Xiao Jinxuan's side in a few steps, and snatched the ink bamboo wine glass in the other party's hand into his own hand.

Zhou Xianyu has always walked without sound, and when the cup was forcibly taken away, Xiao Jinxuan turned his head and realized that it was him.

Seeing Zhou Xian's imperial wine glass approaching his mouth, Xiao Jinxuan was frightened.

Before she had time to think about it, she grabbed the other party's arm and said nervously: "Zhou Xianyu, what are you doing, hurry up and put down the wine glass." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Jinxuan didn't even care about her demeanor, she stretched out her hand to grab it, Zhou Xianyu's eyes flashed with joy, at least at that moment, he could feel that the other party was really nervous about him.

Even Xiao Jinxuan's pair of plain hands holding his arms now, the slight trembling feeling is not fake.

In fact, knowing that there is a problem with this glass of wine, where will Zhou Xianyu really drink it, what he did just now was just to test Xiao Jinxuan, he just wanted to know that in the other party's heart, there was ever a place for him.

Obviously, Xiao Jinxuan's reaction really made Zhou Xianyu more satisfied.

Immediately, he raised the cup high to avoid being taken away by Xiao Jinxuan, and Zhou Xianyu, who was in a good mood because the other party was nervous about himself, said with an evil smile:

"Xuan'er, it's actually really a coincidence, I also like this ink bamboo wine glass, now I just use this, and the rest of the table, you can just take it, but I won't give it to you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Xianyu gently pushed Xiao Jinxuan away, just looking at the other party, his face was still as warm as the wind, and when he turned his head to look at Concubine Hui, it was already cold to the bone.

Then I saw Zhou Xianyu, holding a wine glass, and walked straight to Concubine Hui.

When passing by Zhou Xianrui's side, although the other party stretched out his hand to stop him, this time Zhou Xianyu obviously didn't want to give anyone face, so he directly shook off Zhou Xianrui's hand, and came to Concubine Hui with an evil smile.

Handing the ink bamboo wine glass in his hand to Concubine Hui, Zhou Xianyu said in a lazy voice:

"This glass of wine, I think whoever drinks it is not the most suitable for you to drink it, so Niangniang, please do it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Xianyu handed his hand forward, and the ink bamboo wine glass almost didn't stick directly to Concubine Hui's face.

With an exclamation, Concubine Hui hurriedly avoided the wine glass, her body hurriedly turned sideways, her hands in front of her face, and she said in a somewhat flustered voice:

"Your Royal Highness, what do you mean, this concubine has her own wine glass, since Miss Jinxuan is so partial to this ink bamboo cup, why do you bother to win people's love, Your Highness should hurry up and return the cup."

As soon as he heard this, the corners of Zhou Xianyu's mouth hooked, and he sneered playfully.

"Concubine Hui, your courage is really not small, the matter of hurting Xuan'er's wrist, this king hasn't gone to you to settle the account, and now you dare to bring poisonous wine to harm Jinxuan, so hurry up and drink the wine, don't force me to pour it on you myself."

Concubine Hui was really panicked at this time, because the wine in Xiao Jinxuan's cup was indeed poisonous, but what she couldn't understand was that her plan this time was seamless, how could it be seen through now.

But where will Zhou Xianyu give her time to think about the failure of poisoning.

After all, seeing Xiao Jinxuan's wrist injury today, it has already made him angry, and now it is good, if it weren't for Gu Qingping's nerd, he would have been smart for some reason and noticed that there was a difference in the drink, which would have made Xiao Jinxuan die in front of him.

Zhou Xianyu, who immediately became more and more angry the more he thought about it, grabbed Concubine Hui's wrist and pulled the other party closer, ignoring the screams of the third-grade palace concubine and the obstruction and persuasion of Concubine Liang.

He directly opened the other party's mouth, and the whole glass of wine in his right hand was about to be forcibly poured into the other party's mouth.
