Chapter 172: Passover

Liu Mengyan looked at his back and sneered, sure enough, it was her!

As soon as the third prince left on the front foot, a palace person came on the back foot, "County lord, the queen sent a slave to take you to the Qionghua Hall to participate in the night banquet." ”

Liu Mengyan nodded and followed the palace people.

Stepping into the Qionghua Hall again, Liu Mengyan couldn't help but pause, looked up and watched, and finally stepped into this Qionghua Hall again, a place that had been visited countless times in the previous life.

"County Lord Anping?" Seeing that Liu Mengyan paused, the people in the palace couldn't help but call.

Liu Mengyan hurriedly came back to her senses, "The first time I came to the Qionghua Palace of the queen's mother, I was a little nervous. ”

The palace man smiled, this Qionghua Palace is the most majestic place in the harem, and it is natural for this Anping county lord to be nervous.

Liu Mengyan came to the palace, Emperor Xuan, the queen, Concubine Mei, Qi Zhaoyi, the fourth prince and the fifth prince were already seated, she stepped forward and saluted, and also sat down.

Not long after, Chen Guifei and the crown prince came.

saw that the prince's head was wrapped in gauze, Liu Mengyan looked at the prince like this, and her own sticks were indeed not light.

Hmph, the straw bale prince, another pervert. It is not an exaggeration to go to the woman's house alone to learn such a lesson!

Seeing the appearance of the crown prince, Emperor Xuan asked in a somewhat unhappy tone, "What's the matter with the prince's head?" Isn't it okay in the afternoon? ”

When the others saw the prince's appearance, they all showed surprised expressions.

Hearing this, the prince's eyes were slightly angry, and he couldn't help but look at Liu Mengyan, but Liu Mengyan picked up the teacup and moved her eyes elsewhere.

Although the prince was angry in his heart, it was not good to attack in front of so many people, so he had to press it down.

Seeing that the scene was a little embarrassing, Chen Guifei forced a smile, "Back to Your Majesty, the prince went back from the concubine's bedroom, I didn't want the road to be dark and windy, and I didn't see the road clearly, so I accidentally fell and didn't get in the way." ”

Sure enough, the prince didn't dare to tell the story of his trespass in the Guanyu Pavilion.

As soon as Chen Guifei's words fell, the eunuch's shrill voice came from the door, "Xuan Guifei, His Royal Highness the Third Prince has arrived." ”

Hearing this voice, Liu Mengyan's face immediately turned cold, and she couldn't help but sneer a little in her heart: It's finally here, this time you provoked me first, so today, don't blame me for being rude!

After Concubine Xuan and the three princes stepped forward to greet the salute, they sat down.

Liu Mengyan squinted her eyes and looked at Xuan Guifei from head to toe.

I saw that Concubine Xuan was still as proud and arrogant as ever, and she didn't take anyone in her eyes.

She beckoned to the palace maid who was standing beside her, and the palace maid stood not far from Liu Mengyan, saw her beckoning, and hurriedly passed.

"I don't know what the county lord of Anping commands?"

Liu Mengyan smiled, and then whispered a few words in her ear.

I saw that after hearing this, the palace maid hurriedly showed a slightly surprised expression, and couldn't help but glance at Concubine Xuan.

After finishing speaking, Liu Mengyan said, "Please pass on what I just said to the queen." ”

The palace maid's face was a little heavy, but she also nodded and responded.

The palace maid quietly moved to the queen's mother's eldest palace maid and whispered a few words in her ear.

Liu Mengyan looked at the big palace maid beside the queen mother, and after seeing that she listened to the palace maid's reply, she turned around and reported to the queen mother.

When the queen mother heard this, her face instantly stiffened, and when she went to look at Concubine Xuan, her face became ugly.

Before the banquet officially began, Empress Wang gently wiped her tears with a handkerchief, this action really attracted the attention of Emperor Xuan, and he immediately asked with concern: "What's wrong with the queen?" Why did you cry? ”

Queen Wang hurriedly stood up and knelt down, "Your Majesty, the concubine is not talented, I am willing to voluntarily remove the position of queen, and I am only willing to be an ordinary concubine and serve by Your Majesty's side." It's like sitting on pins and needles in this back position. ”

She said with a pear blossom in the rain, wiping away her tears as she spoke, as if she had suffered some great grievance.

Emperor Xuan was taken aback, and everyone was also taken aback, looking at each other, not knowing what had happened, and not understanding why the queen suddenly said such a thing.

Although he was puzzled, Emperor Xuan was still a little distressed when he looked at the queen, and hurriedly helped her up, "What's wrong with the queen?" What do you mean by that? ”

Queen Wang still wiped away her tears, "The concubine is really tired of being this queen, Your Majesty, now someone wants to take the position of the concubine, what is the meaning of the concubine being the queen?" It's better to let her be an idler, as long as you are always with the emperor's side and the concubines will be content. ”

As she spoke, she also looked at Concubine Xuan from time to time.

Smart people understand what is going on at once.

Emperor Xuan also looked at Concubine Xuan's side, looked at it from head to toe, and found that Concubine Xuan's gorgeous dress was openly embroidered with a four-clawed phoenix pattern.

You must know that these four-clawed phoenix patterns and five-clawed golden dragons are exclusively for the queen and the emperor.

But this Xuan Guifei's dress is actually embroidered with a phoenix pattern of four claws. This clearly wants to take the position of the queen.

Everyone couldn't help but sigh for a while, and even Emperor Xuandi's face sank.

Although Emperor Xuan is very fond of Concubine Xuan, Concubine Xuan usually doesn't take the queen in her eyes, but this is the queen's Qionghua Palace after all. Concubine Xuan didn't know the general situation, and she still didn't take the queen in her eyes, which really embarrassed Emperor Xuan.

Xuan Guifei saw that everyone's eyes were cast on her, so she looked at herself and suddenly understood something.

Emperor Xuan still had a calm face, looking at Concubine Xuan, his face was so black that he could drip ink.

Concubine Xuan suddenly felt like a thorn on her back, got up and walked in front of Emperor Xuan, knelt down, and said aggrievedly: "The emperor forgives the sin." It's all this cheap maid, it's the clothes she prepared, and the concubines don't know what's going on, Your Majesty. ”

She pointed the finger at Yuping, who was also kneeling beside her, and glared at her fiercely.

This jade screen was also shocked, but after seeing Xuan Guifei's eyes, he immediately didn't dare to say anything, but immediately crawled over on his knees, "Please spare the emperor's mother, it was the slave who was careless for a while, and did not check carefully, which made such a mistake in the embroidery room." ”

Although this four-clawed phoenix pattern was deliberately embroidered by Xuan Guifei.

Concubine Xuan Guifei was favored in front of the emperor, and the people in the embroidery room were flattering people one by one, and they didn't dare to disobey, so they embroidered the four-clawed phoenix pattern, but they didn't want to be attacked by the queen's mother at this time, causing such a catastrophe.

Liu Mengyan looked at this scene and couldn't help sneering, these people pushed one by one, and they could perform better than the singing in Nanfang, so they should really be sent to sing.

The emperor looked at the two kneeling in the hall, he was in a good mood, but now he has become like this, and he also dislikes Concubine Xuan for being too arrogant. How could he not know what was going on with this palace maid, she was just a scapegoat.

Seeing that the emperor was calm and silent, Concubine Xuan was a little panicked for a while.

In the past, Concubine Xuan Guifei often overstepped the rules in dressing, such as this four-clawed phoenix pattern, and it was not the first time she wore it.

In the past, everyone also saw it, but no one dared to say anything, even the queen swallowed her anger and didn't dare to reprimand, but she didn't want the queen to mention this matter at this time today.

If it is placed on weekdays, even if such a thing happens, it would be enough to reprimand Emperor Xuan for his favor to Concubine Xuan.

But coincidentally, today because of Liu Mengyan's husband and wife tree picture, Emperor Xuan reminded him of his relationship with Queen Wang in the past.

encountered this incident again, Emperor Xuan saw that his wife was wronged like this, and he naturally felt a little more distressed in his heart, so he was so displeased.

At this moment, Chen Guifei couldn't help but sneered and said: "This embroidery room has always been the most careful, and it is also the most in accordance with the rules, how could there be such a mistake?" Besides, if this slave does not have the command of his master, how can he dare to act arbitrarily? Xuan Guifei Niangniang, you said yes, right? ”

The grievances between Chen Guifei and Xuan Guifei have also been many years, and Xuan Guifei relies on Emperor Xuan's favor and is arrogant and domineering on weekdays; Chen Guifei is the cousin of Emperor Xuan and the niece of the Queen Mother, and she has a lot of grievances with Xuan Guifei in private.

Xuan Guifei glared at Chen Guifei, but no matter how much she said now, it was useless, so she had to beg the emperor, she knelt down and took a few steps forward, "Please forgive the emperor, the concubine is willing to be punished, but the concubine definitely has no intention of offending the queen, please let the emperor know." ”

When Emperor Xuan saw her like this, he didn't want to make a big deal about it, so he said to the queen: "Concubine Xuan has always been respectful, and such a thing will definitely not be done." Queen, just spare her this time, don't take it as an example! ”

Queen Wang sneered in her heart, always respectful? I hated it in my heart, but with tears on my face, I squeezed out a smile, "What the emperor says, the concubines all listen to the emperor." ”

Emperor Xuan was relieved at this time, and he couldn't help but feel a little softer to the queen in his heart, and he always had to vent his anger for the queen, and then said sternly: "Come on, pull this palace maid out and kill her with a cane!" ”

"Niangniang~" Yuping was suddenly frightened and collapsed to the ground.

She is asking Xuan Guifei for help! But where can Concubine Xuan take care of her now!

Seeing that the emperor had already given an order, the queen was not good at what to say, and she knew in her heart that with the current situation, she would not be able to bring down Xuan Guifei, since she could not be defeated, it was better to sell her personal favor, so she said very understandingly: "It seems that it is all this palace maid!" ”

When Concubine Xuan heard this, she immediately stepped forward and said with a smile: "The queen mother forgives her sins!" It's all to blame for the lax discipline of the ministers and concubines, so that such things happened. In the future, the concubines must carefully discipline and restrain their subordinates, and there will be no such mistakes. ”

She said this, but she was very unwilling in her heart, thinking that one day, she would also wear the four-clawed phoenix pattern.

In this way, this turmoil can be regarded as safely over.

Liu Mengyan looked at Concubine Xuan, she was wearing the clothes of the palace maid to go back to fetch the ground, with a little embarrassment!

She couldn't help but smile lightly.
