Chapter 161: Jealousy
"Could it be that it was rumored in the palace that the queen mother liked the regent before?"
"No, I can't see it, it turns out that these two people are really having an affair."
Everyone discussed one after another, completely ignoring the two protagonists and just chatting about gossip.
Seeing that Rong Xi was showing signs of disrepute, Du Yuwei couldn't hide the joy in her heart, and it was all on her face.
"You...... You guys! ”
Hearing the chatter around him, Rong Xi looked at them angrily, lifted his skirt, and strode away from the banquet.
"I'm!"
Rong Xi left the banquet angrily, and everyone felt the oppression coming from Mu Guichen's body one after another, and they closed their mouths one after another.
Looking at Mu Guichen, Song Qiuning stepped back in fear.
Seeing this, Du Yuwei handed the small porcelain vase in her sleeve to the personal maid on the side: "Go ahead, do things beautifully, it will be beneficial to you." ”
She touched her sideburns and watched her personal maid chase after her.
This time, she won't let go of Rong Xi easily, and she will definitely make her look good!
Elsewhere in the Imperial Garden, Rong Xi left the banquet with a taste, and only Lu Qi was left alone, wandering around indiscriminately.
Seeing Rong Xi's appearance, Lu Qi thought that she really had Mu Guichen in her heart, so she would be so angry.
"Mother, haven't you really forgotten the regent?"
can't help but worry, Lu Qi, as her personal maid, has no second heart since she was a child, and she knows everything about Rong Xi, if it is said that Rong Xi still likes Mu Guichen, it is reasonable.
"I ......"
As soon as he was about to answer, he saw a maid not far away follow, and saw her turn around and hide in the flowers beside her, but she was still a step too slow.
"It's okay, the mourning family is just an excuse to go out for a walk, take a breath, and I'll go back later."
Rong Xi said lonely, but her expression was not like what she meant in her words at all, she was obviously sad, but Song Qiuning, as her cousin, fell in love with the person she liked.
"Mother's ......"
Looking at her distressedly, Lu Qi was at a loss, not knowing how to appease her.
"It's okay, let's go back."
patted Lu Qi on the shoulder, Rong Xi pretended to be relaxed and walked back, ready to go back to the banquet, she is the queen mother after all, if she leaves like this, it is really not good to hear it.
Seeing this, Lu Qi had to wait until the banquet was over and then have a good talk with Rong Xi.
The two were about to walk back, but the maid came over, she lowered her head and didn't look at the road, and bumped into Rong Xi directly.
Rong Xi was knocked back several steps by her, but fortunately, Lu Qi helped her and avoided falling.
"Bold! Don't hurry up and apologize to the mother. ”
Lu Qi looked at the maid in front of her angrily and said angrily.
It was the first time to see Lu Qi with such a fierce appearance, Rong Xi was startled, and the maid was also so frightened that she knelt on the ground, begging for mercy: "Niangniang spare her life, Niangniang spare her life!" ”
Rong Xi saw that the maid was so frightened that her body was trembling slightly, so she gently grabbed Lu Qi.
"Get up."
She said slowly, meaning that she was not going to care, Lu Qi was a little unhappy when she saw this, but she still came according to her thoughts.
"Thank you, mother."
Slowly got up, and after the maid left, Lu Qi began to chatter: "Niangniang is really tolerant, she doesn't punish that maid!" ”
"Lu Qi, after all, we are in the palace, and today is His Majesty's banquet, if I really do that, have you ever imagined how bad the reputation is?"
Rong Xi said seriously word by word, she knows these truths in her heart.
"Niangniang knew that she said this to Lu Qi, but just now at the banquet, she didn't lose her temper."
Smiling lightly, Rong Xi glanced down at the place where he had just been bumped by the maid, and returned to the banquet with Lu Qi.
casually glanced at the maid beside Du Yuwei, and she hooked her lips.
"I happened to be in the Imperial Garden today, and I heard that there are many strange flowers and plants in the Imperial Garden, otherwise, let's go and take a look?"
The banquet was almost over, and at this time, a woman slowly suggested.
They have only entered the palace once in a long time, and even if they do, they will inevitably be able to come to the imperial garden and take a look at these strange flowers and plants.
With such a good meaning, they naturally want to catch it.
"Yes, yes."
Song Qiuning said happily, feeling the sight behind him, turned his head to meet Rong Xi's gaze, and silently lowered his head.
Everyone set off to go to the Imperial Garden, and when Du Yuwei got up, Song Qiuning followed her in a hurry, seeing this, Du Yuwei was happy.
Now, Rong Xi's favorite cousin has also followed her, what else can she find out in the future?
"! How can Miss Cousin be with the county lord, she obviously knows that the two of you are not compatible! ”
Seeing this scene, Lu Qi was upset for her.
"Hmph, it seems that the enemy of my enemy is my friend, this sentence is true."
Rong Xi looked at the figures of the two of them in the distance, slowly moved away, and followed him to other places in the imperial garden to take a good look at the flowers and plants.
"Niangniang, but Miss Biao is not your enemy, right?"
Looking at Rong Xi puzzled, Lu Qi didn't understand the meaning of her words, so she asked for a solution very seriously.
"Hmph, just now, I was already an enemy, if she likes Mu Guichen, she will definitely treat me as an enemy."
Smiling self-deprecatingly, Rong Xi followed them to the Imperial Garden, and everyone became excited when they saw so many strange flowers and plants.
Rong Xi closed his eyes and took a deep breath, the tip of his nose was full of a faint floral fragrance, which made people feel refreshed.
"There are really a lot of strange flowers and plants in this imperial garden, look at this black peony, but you can't see it anywhere else, so there are in the imperial garden."
Song Qiuning fell in love with the black peony on the side, and discussed with the official lady on the side, there are many flowers of other colors, which is not special.
But the black peony flower has never been seen, and everyone is naturally very curious.
"This peony is still strange, why is it black?"
They were attracted over, they touched the black peony, each touched it, but Lu Qi's heart was distressed, and they were afraid that they would touch it.
This black peony was specially brought by Mu Guichen from elsewhere, and when it was placed in the imperial garden, Rong Xi loved it very much, often came to take a look, and watered it when he was in a good mood.
"But although the black peony is peculiar, it feels so bad, and I always feel that something bad will happen."
Pursing her lips, another official lady said, her voice was not small, and it happened to reach everyone's ears.
"What nonsense, this precious black peony was brought back by the regent!"
Lu Qi took a step forward and couldn't help but refute the words of the official lady, and was annoyed.
