Chapter 68: The Crab Feast

Everyone suddenly remembered the thrilling tension at the Dragon Boat Festival dinner a few days ago, and they still don't know if the realgar wine that their master drank has been added, and the atmosphere was heavy and stagnant for a while.

After being silent for a long time, Bi He couldn't help but comfort her master when she saw her master's solemn expression: "Maybe it's really just to invite your master to attend the banquet held by Concubine Xi." ”

Yu Yao rolled her eyes, not caring about her elegant and scholarly temperament, and asked, "Think about Concubine Xi's temperament, and her previous attitude towards me, is it really just that simple?" ”

Bihe was speechless.

"Perhaps, it's just a little bit of a little bit of the master as before!" Lan Yi thought about what happened to his previous master that he had heard, and guessed in a low voice.

"Li Quan, what do you think?" Although Yu Yao felt that Lan Yi's words were a bit possible, she still felt that it should not be so simple.

"No matter what idea Concubine Xi has, even if you don't go this time, master, there will be a next time, and the next invitation will not be able to hide."

Yu Yao nodded, "That's true." ”

"In that case, the minions feel that you can only be vigilant and go to the banquet, and then the soldiers will come to cover the water." Li Quan's tone was very helpless.

Yu Yao: "......"

Bihe and Lanyi also looked at Li Quan speechlessly, thinking that he was going to publish something insightful!

"Isn't this to blame the minions, is this obvious?" Li Quan was unusually bold and said so in front of Yu Yao.

Isn't that just saying that they have bad brains? Yu Yao suddenly felt that Li Quan owed a lot.

She just remembered Concubine Xi's methods some time ago, and she was a little panicked, so she didn't think of it for the time being!

For a while, the three people led by Yu Yao glared at Li Quan angrily.

Li Quan, who realized that he had committed public anger, immediately admitted that he had said the wrong thing.

In this way, Yu Yao withdrew her gaze from glaring at Li Quan, and the same was true of Bihe Blue Yi.

Li Quan breathed a sigh of relief, raised his hand and wiped the sweat on his forehead with the back of his hand.

"Poof!" Yu Yao and the others were amused by his play.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the room relaxed.

The next morning, Yu Yao, as before, habitually either practiced calligraphy in the study or studied chess games.

Then after eating, go for a walk and take a walk around the ancient and modern.

When I came back, I went to take a nap as usual.

After waking up, Yu Yao finished dressing up and took Bihe to the Xinghua Spring Pavilion, which is now Concubine Xi's residence, to attend the banquet.

Yu Yao walked on the path of the Xinghua Spring Pavilion and felt that it was quite good here, but she felt that with Concubine Xi's temperament, she should not like it here.

Xinghua Spring Pavilion is almost an apricot blossom village, and Yuyao feels that there is a simple pastoral taste here.

And she carefully observed, the layout of the buildings here is quite arbitrary, and most of them are low houses with sparse hedges, paper windows and wooden couches.

In addition, the vegetable garden in front of the museum is planted with all kinds of melons, fruits, and vegetables according to different seasons, which has a strong pastoral flavor.

As far as Concubine Xi's temperament is concerned, the resplendent is probably what she likes.

As for why she chose this place, it is estimated that it is close to Wanfang'an, and it is said that the emperor likes this kind of pastoral life, and he personally planted the fields during the prince's period, and chose this place just to cater to the emperor's preferences.

Whether Concubine Xi likes it or not, Yu Yao likes it very much, I heard that in spring, the apricot blossoms are blooming, but unfortunately, in summer, I can't appreciate it.

With pity, Yu Yao was led to the main hall where the tea party was held.

After a while, the concubines came one by one except for the queen, even Concubine Qi, who looked very haggard, still came.

I guess it's for her son!

Yu Yao saluted Concubine Qi with the flow, and the thoughts in her mind continued.

After sitting down again, the afterglow was withdrawn from Concubine Qi, her eyes lowered, and she shook her head secretly in her heart.

Concubine Qi's idea is afraid that it will be in vain, as far as Concubine Xi's cautious eyes are concerned, she must have a grudge against Concubine Qi for suppressing her in the past, of course, it is estimated that there are some previous grievances and so on, so that she will not forget the past because she is flattering her now, and then help her say good things to her son.

Besides, Yu Yao didn't think that Concubine Xi could blow Yongzheng's pillow wind.

Concubine Qi has been with the emperor for so long, and she doesn't know such an obvious fact?!

Forget it, I don't want to do this, now I have to cheer up, tense my nerves, and wait for the next battle.

After a while, Concubine Xi came.

Yu Yao saluted her with the crowd, and just when she wondered if she would not be shouted as before, and was deliberately rectified, the voice of Concubine Xi screaming came from her ears.

Concubine Xi didn't take the opportunity to rectify herself?!

couldn't help it, Yu Yao's nerves tightened a little.

The tea party is just chatting, and it is a topic that Yuyao finds boring - fabrics, clothes, jewelry, etc.

However, didn't Concubine Xi always isolate herself in the past, or mock herself with yin and yang?

Why do you pull yourself up from time to time this time? Besides, the tone of this speech is also a little more peaceful, right?

Yu Yao couldn't help but cast a surprised look at Concubine Xi.

Concubine Xi caught a glimpse of Yu Yao's expression, and said in her heart that this Guerjia clan didn't seem to be deep-minded, and her expression was not well concealed. didn't just treat her better, and even showed a surprised expression.

After several breaths, Yu Yao's expression changed from surprise, to doubt, to relief.

Seeing this, Concubine Xi flashed a sneer on her face, and soon disappeared again.

Yu Guang caught a glimpse of the sneering Yu Yao and sighed in her heart, sure enough, this Concubine Xi had bad intentions towards herself.

couldn't help it, Yu Yao felt a pain in her head.

Why is this Concubine Xi always targeting herself and wanting to deal with herself?!

Didn't she just do it the other day?

Wait, didn't she do it to herself the other day, and now is the day she does it to herself.

Thinking of this, Yu Yao first breathed a sigh of relief, and then the vigilance in her heart rose to the highest.

At this moment, the palace maids came up with plates and some utensils.

Yu Yao looked at the steamed crab on the table, stunned.

Isn't the tea party all about eating snacks, drinking tea, and chatting?

Now this is not only steamed crab, but also crab roe buns, as well as ...... It's a crab feast at all.

At this moment, Concubine Xi's voice came from her ears, "Recently, I have offered some good crabs to the emperor, and the emperor has rewarded some to the palace, no, the palace specially invited the sisters to taste it together." ”

"Thank you for your generosity!"

"The emperor really values you, I heard that this crab is only here for you." A person who has recently been close to Concubine Xi often compliments.

When Yu Yao heard this, she rolled her eyes in her heart.

This person is also a talent, in fact, it has nothing to do with the emperor's emphasis on Concubine Xi!

It is said that the emperor asked the queen to give it to the harem concubines, but they were all asked to leave by Concubine Xi, of course, only Concubine Xi has it here.

There are many people who know the truth, but everyone doesn't make a sound to slap Concubine Xi in the face.
