Chapter 126: Public Humiliation (I)
The palace people were ordered to retreat. After a while, the sedan chair was lifted. She got into a sedan chair with Concubine Yuan. Slowly walk towards Kunning Palace.
Just got off the sedan car. Before I even entered the door, I heard laughter coming from inside. It's really hilarious.
My heart was cold. She slumped through the door. Fang Cai Man followed closely behind.
"Concubine Li's mother's frame is here. Just now the people are on the ......" the chamberlain shouted.
The people in the courtyard who were sitting under the brocade flowers stopped laughing. I saw the figure slowly coming in outside the door. Hurriedly got up to greet him.
She chuckled. It's really a villain.
"The concubine has seen the mother. Niang Chitose Chitose Chitose." Concubine Yuan said. Only a slight nod. It's a salute. The other concubines also nodded slightly.
"Excuse me." She laughed. There was a faint look on his face. He didn't show any anger.
Fang Cairen also blessed her: "The concubine has seen the queen's mother. Concubine Yuan."
The queen smiled and said no courtesy. looked at her again and said, "How can Sister Concubine Lifei come over today. I heard that you are not feeling well and have been recuperating."
She lowered her eyes and chuckled. The voice is cold." The mother is overjoyed. The concubine naturally wants to come to say hello to the mother. The concubine was only a little sick. I can go out for a walk once in a while."
The queen smiled. Say no more. beckoned: "Sister Concubine Li. We are enjoying the flowers and tasting tea. You might as well sit together. It's good to talk."
She nodded her head. Slow down and walk inside.
The queen put one hand on the wrist of the palace people and stood up. A child who is only a month old. It's easy to get tired like that. She's like this. It's nothing more than trying to show off that you're noble now.
The palace concubine followed.
Peony flowers bloom brightly in the sun. Sleeved, pink, purple, white...... Clusters of flowers. Flourishing Smoke. A few top positions. A few plates of tea fruits on the shore. And they sat in the courtyard filled with the smell of flowers. Drinking tea lightly. Eating a snack. Occasionally someone says a joke or two to listen to. Everyone laughed.
Everyone is sitting. Only the queen lies on her side on the chaise longue. There is a palace man next to him gently beating his legs.
She sneered in her heart. Noncommittal.
Eating refreshments. Concubine Yuan suddenly thought of something. said: "The taste of this plum shortbread is also good. It's just that I don't know why the concubine always feels a little worse when she eats."
Talking. She sighed to herself again. Alas. Since when I was in the palace. After eating the plum blossom cake made by the slaves and maids in the palace of the concubine. If the concubine eats something made by others, she will feel tasteless."
The queen looked at her with a smile. Said: "Before, the emperor favored Concubine Li's sister. Concubine Li's slaves and maids are naturally not ordinary."
The queen deliberately bit the word "before". The irony in the tone is obvious.
She just laughed. Noncommittal. Put down the teacup. Wipe the water stains at the corners of your lips with a handkerchief.
The smile on Fang Cairen's face grew. said: "I don't know which girl's craftsmanship is so good."
"The minion who makes plum blossom shortbread is called Qi Mo. It was originally in the queen's room. It's just that the minion clumsily made a mistake. The mother punished her and went to the dining room. That's just a lesson or two. Concubine Lao Yuan is so worried." Her voice was cold. Looking up at Concubine Yuan. There is still a smile on his face.
"Oh. It turned out to be someone sent by the queen."
Concubine Yuan's words were full of irony. The smile on her face grew colder and colder. Lowered his eyes and looked at the ground beneath his feet. The gaze is scorching. No more answers.
The atmosphere froze for a moment. Only then can people observe the situation. Breaking the deadlock with a smile: "The minions in Concubine Li's palace are so good at making pastries. I don't know if I can pass it on to the slaves of my concubines. After the servants in the palace of the concubines learned to make pastries. I can always make it for all the ladies to taste."
She smiled faintly and said, "There's nothing wrong with that. Bring it when you have time."
She was very happy. got up and blessed: "The concubine thanked the concubine."
She smiled softly, "It's not worth mentioning."
The queen and others said that she was well-behaved. The weigher shifts the conversation to flowers and plants.
She has no intention of appreciating the flowers. I just said a few perfunctory sentences and wanted to leave. I'm thinking about what kind of excuse I'm going to find to leave. But I heard a long voice outside the door, and the emperor was on the shelf......
Everyone was stunned. I didn't expect the emperor to come. They were all overjoyed. Hurriedly trimmed sideburns and plastic surgery. For fear of losing his honor in front of the emperor.
The queen also got up from the couch in a hurry. Take care of your palace clothes up and down.
In the midst of this faction of confusion. Only she seemed so quiet. With a smile on his face.
The bottom of the eyes. But it was cold. Originally. He's also not very busy. I can still find time to walk around Kunning Palace.
She clenched the cup in her hand. The knuckles are pale and prominent. Trembling gently because I was pushing too hard.
"Oh. It's so lively." It was his voice with a smile. From far to near.
Recently, the first few concubines also got up. When I saw the emperor coming, I wanted to meet him immediately. But look again. She hadn't gotten up yet. So I had to wait there.
Mama Jinyun called softly beside her: "Niangniang. The emperor is here. Mother.......
She woke up from a dream. Raised his head. Put the cup. Slowly stand up. and the other concubines followed the queen to meet him. Only lightly blessed the body. There is nothing in the mouth.
"The concubine greets the emperor. Long live the emperor, long live, long live."
The palace concubines beside him shouted long live. The voice is so coquettish. It's so pleasant. She thought. Without her voice. He shouldn't have noticed it either.
"Concubine Li, too." He said with a smile. But not the tenderness she was familiar with.
A pair of exquisitely crafted dragon boots come into view. She looked up slowly. Looking at him: "Yes. It's stuffy in the palace. Just come out for a walk."
I haven't seen you for a few days. He seems to have lost a lot of weight. Moon white robe. Crown press. The lone figure looks very thin.
He had a faint smile on his face. Look at her eyes are clear and transparent. There are no impurities. And her heart is getting more and more painful. How can it be so clear.
He wasn't supposed to show that he missed her. Or is it guilty of the look on her face? so that she knows he's pretending to be happy. It made her think that maybe there was just a misunderstanding between them.
"It's okay to walk more." He said with a smile. After a brief greeting. Then he turned around and hugged the queen. Touched her belly dotingly: "How is it today. Is the little one still good in your belly?"
The queen was honored in front of everyone. It's really proud. She lowered her head shyly: "Your Majesty. Sister Concubine Li is still watching."
Until there was a snickering around. She suddenly came back to her senses. Find yourself really still looking at them.
She hurriedly lowered her head. The face is already hot. It's hard to be ashamed.
The queen is clearly deliberately telling others. She's jealous. And he. It's clear that she wants to make a fool of herself. An inexplicable hatred came to my heart. Depressed and heavy. She couldn't breathe.
Never tried to hate so much. It feels like it's about to explode. Blood reflux throughout the body. Flooding the brain.
It's not about hating others. Rather, she hated herself.
