Chapter 152: The Concubine Banquet (7)
The palace is lively, and now there are palace maids and eunuchs walking around.
Afraid that Kang Mingwei and Kang Xinxin would fall behind and collide with others, Zhao Heyan walked by herself for a while, and when she arrived at a crowded place, she slowed down and waited for the two sisters behind to follow.
"Where's the orange?"
After the two caught up, Zhao Heyan glanced at it and found that Kang Mingwei's personal maid Cheng'er was not waiting by the master's side, so she immediately asked Kang Mingwei a question.
Before Kang Mingwei could answer, a familiar call came from behind: "Miss! ”
Zhao Heyan and the Kang sisters looked over together, and saw Cheng'er walking over cautiously holding a cup.
Before she got closer, Zhao Heyan said impatiently: "Where did the stinky girl go!" ”
"Madame forgive your sins, Madame forgive your sins!" Orange Er quickened her pace, and hurriedly excused herself, and when she took a few steps closer, she immediately explained: "Miss Fang Cai said that she drank some wine at the banquet, and now her spleen and stomach are not very comfortable, so she specially ordered the slave maid to ask for a cup of decanting soup." ”
Decanting soup can not only decant the wine, but also slightly mediate the discomfort caused by drinking. This reason was originally agreed by Kang Mingwei and Orange, and at this time, the two cooperated without flaws.
"Mother~" Kang Mingwei called Zhao Heyan: "It was indeed I who asked Orange to go." ”
At this time, several people had already stopped, and Zhao Heyan's eyes hit Kang Mingwei and Cheng'er's faces back and forth a few times, probably not seeing anything strange, and glanced at Cheng'er: "Even if you go to decant the soup, you should also be informed, what's the matter if you disappear quietly?" ”
After that, Zhao Heyan took the decanting soup from Orange's hand, first sent it to his nose and smelled it, and then handed the decanting soup to Kang Mingwei's hand.
Zhao Heyan said: "Drink, after drinking, I have to go to see the emperor, but don't wait until I see the holy driver and make any mistakes......"
Kang Mingwei nodded, hurriedly stretched out his hand to take the decanting soup, only held the lamp for a moment, but somehow it didn't hold it steady, Kang Mingwei 'ah', the decanting soup spilled, and the cup fell to the ground with a 'clang' sound.
It wasn't until the sound of the bowl rolling across the stone floor gradually subsided after the pot hit the ground that Zhao Heyan reacted.
The decanting soup was spilled in the blink of an eye, and at this moment, there was a dark stain on Kang Mingwei's pink dress.
"Third sister, your clothes ......" Kang Xinxin swiped down, the stain was conspicuous, and she saw it immediately, so she reminded her.
Orange immediately said 'oops', stepped forward and took out a handkerchief to wipe Kang Mingwei, but Kang Mingwei and Zhao Heyan's eyes fell on the soup stain, and they didn't speak for a while.
"Wei'er......" Zhao Heyan stared at the stain for a while, but his voice sank: "You don't want to see the emperor, so you deliberately spilled it, right?" ”
Shocked, Kang Mingwei glanced at her mother.
Fortunately, because of the night and Zhao Heyan's eyes fell on the soiled dress, he didn't notice Kang Mingwei's panicked look.
"Mother!" Kang Mingwei stomped her feet angrily: "What are you talking about!" Even if I don't want to go, I also have a way, do I have to get my clothes dirty? ”
Turning his gaze to Kang Mingwei's face, Zhao Heyan didn't speak for a while.
Her daughter naturally understands that Kang Mingwei has always loved beauty, even if she doesn't want to flatter the emperor, she really won't use such a method.
If this dress is stained, and then she meets the ladies in other mansions who don't deal with her, won't she be laughed at in vain?
Seeing that Kang Mingwei snatched the handkerchief from Cheng'er's hand, she desperately wiped the stains on her dress, and her anxious appearance really didn't look like she was deliberately dirty.
"Mother!" Kang Mingwei was half coquettish and half annoyed: "What should I do now?" This is how the clothes look! I don't have to change it! ”
"Okay, okay, I can't hold my breath at all...... Is it so urgent? Zhao Heyan estimated that he was afraid that he would miss this great opportunity to meet the emperor today, and he couldn't help but be irritable in his heart, and his tone of voice became stern.
Kang Mingwei didn't dare to say anything more, she just wiped her skirt desperately with Cheng'er, and Zhao Heyan thought of a way in her heart, her eyes turned, but she suddenly turned over Kang Xinxin's body.
"Erniang......" Kang Xinxin subconsciously took two steps back, her voice trembling slightly.
Looking at Kang Xinxin's bixia moire pleated skirt, the irritability in Zhao Heyan's eyes gradually turned into a smile.
Yes, aren't you thinking about stealing the limelight from my Wei'er, but it's just right now, thanks to your prodigal hooves dressed so expensively, if you want to climb the high branches, you can do me a great favor......
Thinking like this, Zhao Heyan smiled and said to Kang Xinxin: "Xin'er, you are in the mansion, how is your third sister treating you?" ”
Zhao Heyan was just ordinary to Kang Xinxin in Kang Mansion, and even because the relationship between Kang Xinxin and Kang Lianlei was not bad, she felt that she was flattering and laughing at both ends, and she looked down on her a little.
Right now, Zhao Heyan can't say how good she is, so she takes out sisterhood and talks about it.
"Self and nature are excellent." Kang Xinxin only responded, and probably guessed what Zhao Heyan meant in her heart.
Sure enough, Zhao Heyan listened to Kang Xinxin's promise, and smiled even more on her face, she said: "Your third sister's clothes are dirty, and you can't go to see the emperor with this appearance, but your father is bent on sending your third sister to the palace......"
Zhao Heyan paused when she said this, and seeing that Kang Xinxin's expression had not changed, she knew in her heart that although she was hiding this matter from others, she was afraid that her daughter had already made it clear to the fifth half-sister.
She continued: "Your father has been planning for this matter for a long time, if it can't be done, I'm afraid he will lose his temper........."
Zhao Heyan is now favored, and her and Kang Mingwei's lives will naturally not be affected by this, the implication is just to remind Kang Xinxin that if she doesn't help in this matter, then in Kangfu, she and her mother's life will not be easy in the future.
After a moment of silence, Kang Xinxin lowered her head: "If Erniang has anything to say, just give me orders." ”
"Good boy~" Zhao Heyan smiled: "You are also accompanying your third sister anyway, and now that things are helpless, why don't you change your clothes with your third sister and do your third sister a favor?" ”
"What?!"
Kang Mingwei, who had been lowering her head and wiping her clothes, exclaimed, listening to her mother for a long time, she had been listening to it in a daze, and now she finally understood what her mother was thinking.
"No way!" Kang Mingwei stuffed the handkerchief into Orange'er's hand: "Mother, how can you let you-"
"Shut up!" Zhao Heyan interrupted Kang Mingwei's words, and a cold light flashed in her eyes.
"Your father and I are planning for you, if you don't know how to thank your parents for their hard work and have other ideas, then I tell you, I am not the only child of you, but I will only have your sixth brother in the future!"
