Wu Ping has been by the side of the king since he was a child, so he naturally knows his temperament. He expected that the acting king would not pay attention to the Guangyang Hall for a while, and that was indeed the case. And the ingredients are lost in the Guangyang Palace, and the pastries naturally can't be made, and the palace people are also complaining, and there will be no such delicious mung bean cakes in the future.

However, Yifang always disagreed with this, but Zili and Tengling were secretly anxious. The master is not favored, and they are also idle, and they are always cold-eyed by other palace people on weekdays.

"Beauty, it's been more than a month, and the acting king has never come to our palace, what can I do? We have all become the laughing stock of those palace people now. Teng Ling lay on the table and said aggrievedly, "When we go out, we will always be ridiculed intentionally or unintentionally." ”

"I am the one who has wronged you." Yifang patted Tengling's hand.

"Beauty, the slave maid doesn't mean this, it's just that if the king doesn't come, even the beauty will be coldly looked at, those palace people who see the wind and steer are slacking off in all aspects of our palace's affairs, and the slave and maid are really not convinced!"

"Yifang, you did this on purpose, right?" Zili saw some ways, "Last time, we passed on the matter of making mung bean cake to the ears of the acting king, and I heard that he had already come to Guangyang Palace, but somehow, he turned back to Yueliangren halfway." ”

"Yes, I did mean to." Yifang explained with a smile, "When we were talking that day, a eunuch eavesdropped at the door, and I knew that it was sent by the acting king, so I deliberately said those words so that he could report it to the acting king." ”

"But why?" Teng Ling asked, propping up his head.

"I've got a plan." Yifang raised an eyebrow at the two of them.

Zili and Tengling never understood her thoughts in this matter, and they couldn't guess it, so they could only hope that one day the acting king would suddenly appear at the gate of Guangyang Palace. It's just that the acting king has not been expected to come, but the news of the night banquet in the palace came first.

"A night party? Are there any recent festivals in the palace? "Yifang has asked many old palace people about the Daiguo and Daiwang Palace these days, but he has never heard of anything to celebrate recently.

"It's not a festival, it's just that the king is thinking that you have come all the way from Chang'an, and it has been more than a month now. I was busy with other things before, and I didn't have time to give you a few pick-ups and dust, but now that I am free, I want to make up for it. ”

"Okay, I got it." Yifang sent away the eunuch who came to pass the word, and sat alone in the main hall thinking about it, the strangeness of this night's banquet is really not as simple as catching the wind and washing the dust. Could it be that the acting king has already discovered the clues of the fine work and wants to use the night banquet to get rid of it?

"Yifang, what do you want? So fascinating. Zili patted Yifang's shoulder, and suddenly shocked her.

Zili didn't expect her to react so much, so he sat next to her: "What's wrong with you?" The face doesn't look good. ”

"This time the acting king suddenly wants to hold a night banquet for no reason, have you noticed anything wrong?" Yifang couldn't figure it out for himself, so he simply pulled Zili and thought about it.

"Wrong?" Zili tilted his head and asked, "What do you mean?" ”

"All sorts of things."

"It stands to reason that the night banquet for distant guests should be held three or two days after the arrival of the people, but now more than a month has passed, which is really unreasonable." Zili also thought of this.

"Yes, I think so too, but I don't know what the king wants to do with this night banquet." Yifang was still worried.

"Could it be that Empress Lu knew that the acting king was not welcome to his family, and dealt with Xia Liyun harshly, so he alerted the acting king?"

Yi Fang shook his head definitely: "No, I know Empress Lu, she is not the kind of person who will mess up a big plot because of a little thing." ”

"You don't have to think about it, I've already inquired, there is no problem with this night banquet." While they were pondering, Tengling suddenly came back from outside, "I also felt strange, so I asked around." This night banquet was not the idea of the acting king, it was the queen mother's loneliness in her dream, and someone in her dream made her greedy for more excitement. The acting king has always been filial, and after learning about this, he organized this night banquet for the queen mother. ”

"For the Queen Mother?" Yifang thought for a moment, "If that's the case, it makes sense." Since it is a night banquet for the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother will definitely be present that night, and even if the acting king plans something, he will never do it in front of the Queen Mother. ”

"Yes, so the beauty can go with confidence! This is a rare opportunity to meet the acting king, and the beauty must be carefully dressed, preferably to overshadow all the other concubines. Tengling already has a sense of eagerness.

At the same time, Liu Heng on the other side was also full of interest. Because of the pastries last time, he hadn't been to Guangyang Hall for half a month, but after a long time, his anger disappeared, but he couldn't find the bottom of the steps, so he used the name of the Queen Mother to make a night banquet, so that he had a chance to see the Yifang. Although he still sent people to keep an eye on Guangyang Palace, he only listened to the news, but he couldn't see it, and he always felt unhappy in his heart. If he was allowed to take the initiative to go to Guangyang Palace, he really couldn't pull off this face.

"How? Have all the relevant matters for the dinner been arranged? ”

Wu Ping took a step forward: "Everything has been arranged, all according to your requirements, this is a family banquet, only the Queen Mother and the concubines are present." ”

"Very well, did someone notify you?" Liu Heng touched his nose.

"Huh? The king said...... Which who? Wu Ping was puzzled to hear it.

Liu Heng glanced at him: "The one in Guangyang Palace." ”

"The king is talking about plain beauty!" Wu Ping suddenly realized, "I have already sent someone over to inform me, and now I should have prepared!" ”

"That's pretty much it."

"However, there is one more thing about Su Mei, and the slave doesn't know whether to talk about it or not." Wu Ping understood that Liu Heng was thinking about Yifang in his heart, and if he didn't report this matter, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to get a good face when the time came.

"You didn't say anything, how can this king know whether to talk about it or not." Liu Heng waved his hand, "Speak!" ”

"This ...... You also know that those servants in the palace are all rudder when they see the wind, and when they see that you haven't been to Guangyang Hall for a long time, they feel that Su Mei is not favored, so they ......" Wu Ping stole a glance at Liu Heng's face and said cautiously, "So I put the seat of Su Mei at the night banquet at the end, and even the most humble Qi Shao Envoy is in front!" ”

"Bold! Who gave them the guts! Dare to ...... like this" Liu Heng frowned, his voice suddenly paused, he remembered the mung bean cake he didn't eat last time, and a smile appeared on his face, "Okay, it's good, just do it." ”

"Huh?" Wu Ping's eyes widened in surprise.

"Ahhhh This king just wants people to put her place last, so that she can feel the taste of falling out of favor. Liu Heng laughed mischievously, "You go and let someone spread the news to Guangyang Palace." ”

"Your Majesty, this ...... This is not good, the seats at the night banquet have always been arranged by position, if the plain beauty is ranked after the low-ranking concubines, I am afraid that I will be very annoyed! ”

"By the way, this king just wants to make her angry, and when she is angry, this king is happy. If she could come to the king and reason with her, and take back the seat that belonged to her, the king would be even more happy. Liu Heng is like a child who loves to toss at this time.

Wu Ping finally understood, so he nodded: "No." ”

In the Guangyang Palace, Zili and Tengling were originally preparing clothes for the night banquet for Yifang, but suddenly heard the discussion of the people in the palace outside. Teng Ling was curious, leaned against the wall and listened for a while, and the expression on his face immediately changed.

"How can they do that! That's too much! Teng Ling shook off his clothes and said angrily.

"What's wrong? What do you hear, angry like this? Yi Fang looked at her amusedly.

Teng Ling pursed his mouth: "Beauty, they all said that those minions who saw the wind and steered the rudder moved your seat at the night banquet to the end, and even the young envoy Qi was in front of you!" The most angry thing is that Manager Wu reported this to the acting king, but the acting king didn't seem to hear it, and didn't say a word at all, so he acquiesced to them. ”

"Really?" Zili also walked over when he heard the sound. She understood how important the seats at these banquets in the palace were, almost a bellwether of favor or not. If it is this night banquet, the seat of Yifang is really placed last, I am afraid that in the days to come, even the minions will be able to bully her.

"Seriously! I've heard several palace people say that. Teng Ling raised his face angrily, "It's better not to go than to go to the night banquet and be looked down upon!" ”

"Tengling is right, not going." Yifang spread his hands, "Put away that clothes, you don't need it this time." ”

"Beauty, slave maid is ...... That is to say, don't take it to heart, this night banquet is for the concubines from Chang'an to pick up the wind and wash the dust, if you don't go, I'm afraid ...... Not so good. Teng Ling saw that his angry words were taken seriously, and his heart became worried.

But Yifang was obviously not joking, she pretended to cough a few times, and raised her eyebrows at the two of them: "I've been infected with wind chill these days, it's very serious, and I won't get better for a while, so I have to rest in bed, so I won't go to the night banquet to make people angry." ”

"Beauty, are you serious?" Teng Ling looked at the clothes, and then at the Yi room.

"Of course it's true, go get a doctor." Yifang turned around and walked towards the dormitory, "Let's just say that I fainted suddenly, and I pretended to be panicked along the way, and I must spread it all over the palace." ”

Teng Ling and Zili glanced at each other, although they didn't understand what they meant, they could only do what she wanted.

"Zili sister, what the beauty has been doing lately is so strange, I'm really confused." Teng Ling scratched his head and wondered.

Zili smiled indifferently: "I don't fully understand, it's just that Yifang has always had her reasons for doing things, and one day in the future, everything she wants us to do now will become just right, let's wait and see!" ”
