Chapter 13 The eve of the Dragon Boat Feast
Du Yuwei's head moved, and she hurriedly looked at King Qingjiang, and said in a tentative tone: "Is it that the regent rejected us again?" ”
In addition to this reason, King Qingjiang had no reason to be so angry as soon as he returned.
"That's right."
Glancing at her. King Qingjiang looked away and avoided her.
Du Yuwei stepped back and sat down on the Taishi chair next to her, her eyes glazed and slightly empty.
"It can't be!"
She shook her head, resisting the answer. Ming Yongxi informed her of the regent's intentions, and if her father took the initiative to sue for peace, the regent would refuse for no reason.
"It's nothing impossible, I went to the Regent's Mansion, and the Regent knew my intentions, not only rejected me, but also told me that he had long been in love with the Queen Mother, and he had a husband and wife with that Rong Xi. Originally, I also heard about it, and I thought it was spread by people in the palace, but I never thought that it was true. ”
King Qingjiang shook his head helplessly, only to feel that his face was lost, if it wasn't for Du Yuwei, he wouldn't have to send his face up, being beaten like this.
"What?" Du Yuwei looked at King Qingjiang in surprise, stared at him like a verifier, and said, "What you said is true?" ”
"It's true, how could I lie to you for such a thing."
King Qingjiang replied, got up and walked in front of her, his tone softening slightly.
"Where did you hear that the Lord Regent is obsessed with you? I've told you a long time ago, and you can't hear the rumors outside! ”
"It's Yongxi!" Du Yuwei clutched the long skirt tightly and gritted her teeth.
No wonder Rong Xi said this to her, because she knew that the regent had no intention of her, and deliberately made her make a fool of herself! It was Rong Xi who deliberately lied and seduced her, causing her to be rejected, and all her face was lost!
King Qingjiang looked at Du Yuwei's face, and probably could guess what was going on, shook his head, and left helplessly.
"Okay, you Rongxi, you dare to lie to me and instigate me?"
Du Yuwei knocked over the tea cup on the table to the ground in annoyance, and her chest rose and fell lightly with anger.
As soon as the personal maid entered the door, she was almost hit by the teacup that Du Yuwei swept to the ground, and hurriedly took a step back.
A cold look shot at her, and the maid was so frightened that her legs went limp, and she fell to her knees.
"A natural lowly embryo! Did she think that by doing this, she would be able to lock Guichen by her side forever? ”
The more Du Yuwei thought about it, the more annoyed she became, her face was disgraced, so Rong Xi, as the initiator, didn't want to be happy.
The maid knelt on the spot under pressure, leaned over and lay on the ground, not daring to move, and couldn't even help but lighten her breath.
Hearing Du Yuwei's words, the maid rolled her eyes, slowly raised her head with fear and said, "The county lord is angry!" Although the regent likes the Queen Mother now, if he sees through the Queen Mother and knows that the Queen Mother is misbehaving, he will die if he says anything. ”
Looking down at the maid kneeling in place, Du Yuwei became interested in her slander and stretched out her hand to beckon her over.
"What's your idea? Come and tell me about it. ”
The maid hurriedly got up from the ground, trotted to Du Yuwei's side, and gave her ideas.
"Are you sure you can do it?"
Du Yuwei glanced at the maid, and seemed to be a little distrustful, but now there is no other way.
finally seized an opportunity to climb up, and the maid naturally grasped it firmly and nodded confidently.
"If the incident happens, then I will come out and confess, and I will never drag down the county lord!"
"Good! Then, according to what you say, if you don't get things done, you know my methods, and you will never leave a useless person by your side. ”
hooked the corners of her mouth, Du Yuwei said half intimidatingly.
"Yes."
The Dragon Boat Festival palace banquet is approaching, and Rong Xi, as the head of the first palace of the harem, naturally has to worry about the palace banquet.
Fortunately, during this time, Mu Guichen also stopped a lot, and did not come to her trouble, so that she could arrange all the matters of the harem palace banquet safely, this is her first time to organize a palace banquet, it must be perfect, and people can't find out the slightest mistake.
The palace banquet was held in the imperial garden, and it was usually to invite family friends of the palace concubines, or some ministers.
Rong Xi has put all his energy recently on the palace banquet of the Dragon Boat Festival, afraid that he will make a mistake.
On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, everything went smoothly. Rong Xi listened to Lu Qi's report, and there was no mistake, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Niangniang, you've been busy all day, otherwise, I'll ask someone to prepare some food and let you add some stomach first."
Lu Qi helped Rong Xi back to the Jiaofang Palace, ready to change his clothes after bathing and changing, and then went to the banquet.
You must know that even if you go to the Imperial Garden, you won't have a banquet so soon, and Rong Xi is an easily hungry person, so Lu Qi thought about it for her.
"It's okay, lest I wait too long, I can't stand it myself, you go and notify the small kitchen and let them prepare some food."
Gently bowing his head, Rong Xi withdrew his hand, and after giving instructions to Lu Qi, he took the first step back to Jiaofang Hall to bathe and change clothes. On the way, I saw a sneaky figure.
Today is the Dragon Boat Festival palace banquet, there is no room for error, Rong Xi saw this, so he hurriedly followed to take a look.
When she returned to the Jiaofang Palace, Lu Qi had already returned one step ahead of her, and when she saw that she was not there, she almost called someone to look for her.
"Mother, where have you been? I didn't see you when I came back, and I almost had to ask the people in the palace to look for you. ”
Lu Qi breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly helped her to bathe, everything was already ready.
"When I came back, my steps were smaller, slower, so I don't need to panic."
Gently patting the back of Lu Qi's hand, Rong Xi said, hurriedly took a bath and changed clothes, and the food in the small kitchen was just ready.
Lu Qi put the food on the table, and when she saw Rong Xi finish dressing up, she chuckled and said, "It's just right, the people in the small kitchen have prepared the food, Niangniang came over to eat a little, and we have to hurry up and go to the Imperial Garden." ”
said that it was simple to eat, but there were four or five dishes, Rong Xi glanced at the palace maid next to him, picked up the chopsticks, and ate slowly.
"Oh no, Niangniang, one of the people in the imperial dining room accidentally knocked over the dishes, and now it's too late."
Suddenly, a little eunuch hurriedly trotted in from outside and said nervously.
After hearing this, Lu Qi knew the importance of this palace banquet, so she looked at the little eunuch and asked about the progress.
"What's going on? What dishes have been knocked over now, and is it too late to re-prepare? ”
The little eunuch glanced at Rong Xi's eyes and quickly lowered his head.
