The queen smiled: "You are indispensable!" ”

Xiao Yuexi has always been insensitive to this kind of sweets, and when a bowl of honeydew with a faint floral fragrance was placed in front of her, her eyebrows couldn't help twitching, and her brain was also throbbing.

She's so decent, why do you have to come to join in the fun?

Zhao Ronghua took a sip and couldn't help but admire: "The queen's honeydew is really good, sweet but not greasy, and the flowers are pleasant, how do you do it?" ”

And no matter whether she really admired or slapped the horse, in short, everyone couldn't help but praise her, and for a while, Mrs. Xiao, who didn't say a word, looked a little out of place and was extremely conspicuous.

Lu Jinxiu asked quite casually: "What do you think of Mrs. Xiao?" ”

Mrs. Xiao stubbornly bent her face and did not change her color, tasted it indifferently, and her eyebrows unconsciously raised - this is too good!

The sweet and greasy taste exploded on the tip of her tongue, burning all the way into her stomach, Xiao Yuexi only felt dizzy for a while, and compared this bowl of honeydew with the decoction prescribed by Li Ran in her heart, and came to the conclusion that she would rather drink the medicine than drink another sip of this thing!

Rao is heart set off a storm, but Xiao Yuexi could still maintain a proper smile on his face, and said slowly: "...... It's quite sweet. ”

She really couldn't say that the bowl of things in front of her was delicious, and she felt that she would be punished by God after speaking, and she thought about it for a long time before she thought of saying this, even if it was the truth, it would not be too embarrassing for Lu Jinxiu.

However, some people don't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement.

Zhao Ronghua smiled skillfully, looked at Xiao Yuexi and blinked, not only intentionally but also unintentionally teased: "The concubine looked at Madame so reluctantly, and thought you were going to say it badly!" ”

"You're thinking too much." Xiao Yuexi said indifferently.

Zhao Ronghua smiled even more: "Oh? Really? ”

Xiao Yuexi ignored the scheming hidden in her words, she was so uncomfortable by that small mouthful of honeydew that she didn't even bother to open her mouth.

Lu Jinxiu, who had been smiling all the time, suddenly said: "It seems that Sister Xiao really doesn't like the honeydew in this palace." ”

When she said this, the smile on her face receded, and her tone became a little colder, as if she was annoyed by Xiao Yuexi's coldness.

Xiao Yuexi said calmly: "The queen mother is so bad, the concubine is just sick for a long time, and she can't enjoy such delicious food." ”

"That's from the main palace, isn't it?" Lu Jinxiu's expression became more and more unsightly.

Xiao Yuexi lowered her eyes and was about to speak, when she suddenly heard the two Baolin not far away talking together and whispering. Mu Lan said that those two Baolin are twin sisters of the Lin Ze family, Cai Shu and Cai Wei. Entering the palace together and being named Baolin together can also be regarded as the blessing of Lin Shilang.

It's all Baolin, which is inevitably called wrong, so it is called a Shu Baolin and a Wei Baolin. The two sisters are long according to a mold, and at a glance they can't tell which one is which.

Shu Baolin is an older sister, and her temperament is more stable, while Wei Baolin is more lively. She took her sister's hand and muttered something in a low voice.

The movements of the two of them were very small, and the attention of others fell on Xiao Yuexi, naturally no one paid attention to them, but Xiao Yuexi was different, she had a good ear, she didn't need to listen, and she could hear it clearly.

Wei Baolin said: "Sister, that Mrs. Xiao is really as rumored, pampered and arrogant, and rude!" ”

Shu Baolin said: "It's just an uneducated and vulgar person, you and I don't have to make a sound, just wait to see the joke." ”

The two sisters looked at each other and smiled, as if they were not here for the banquet, and they were sitting in the theater waiting to watch the play.

Xiao Yuexi raised her eyes and glanced at the two of them, then looked at the queen again, and asked quite innocently, "What's wrong with the queen mother?" Why did you still have a liver fire? ”

Lu Jinxiu took a breath, a stiff arc pulled out of her lips, but her tone became more and more cold: "Sister Xiao, this palace knows that you are informal, and many things follow you, what do you want this palace to do?" ”

Xiao Yuexi was "surprised" and said: "What is the queen mother talking about?" ”

Zhao Ronghua slapped the table, and he couldn't look at it and accused angrily: "Mrs. Xiao, although your position is noble and graceful, you should also know how to restrain yourself, right?" In front of so many sisters, you are too ...... to sweep the queen's happiness like this."

In the end, her expression, which was speechless with anger, was extremely realistic, and she turned her head and said to Lu Jinxiu: "Queen Mother, you are magnanimous and don't care about her, and the concubines are all wronged for you!" ”

Xiao Yuexi was silent, indifferently watching this farce, as if all this had nothing to do with her.

Lu Jinxiu was also silent, and her good sister Chen Aya didn't say a word from the beginning, let alone express her position.

The atmosphere was a little awkward, Zhao Ronghua saw that no one paid attention to her, so she had to shut up stupidly, but her resentful and disdainful gaze still stayed on Xiao Yuexi's face.

Xiao Yuexi looked at her and asked indifferently, "Are you finished?" ”

Her gaze was unwavering, without ups and downs, but Zhao Ronghua was stared at by her like this, and her scalp was numb, and she trembled for no reason, and heard Xiao Yuexi say again: "What am I too?" Uneducated? Or is there no one in sight? ”

Zhao Ronghua's face froze, and he muttered a little weakly: "You, you know it in your own heart." ”

"Huh!" Xiao Yuexi smiled indifferently, but before the smile could be answered, it disappeared without a trace. "I just don't know, that's why I asked you, Zhao Ronghua. What are the words, don't hold it in your heart, how good is it to say it? ”

Zhao Ronghua looked left and right, and saw that the few people who were sisters just now had no intention of interjecting to help, and regretted his recklessness in his heart.

But that's not right! She had obviously overheard the conversation between the queen and Concubine Chen before, the queen hated Mrs. Xiao so much, she shouldn't have made a mistake in this sycophant, why was the queen so calm?

Thinking like this, Zhao Ronghua couldn't help but secretly glanced at the queen, but saw the queen suddenly speak: "Okay, it's all a trivial matter, Zhao Ronghua doesn't have to be like this." ”

was suddenly thrown a step by the queen, Zhao Ronghua breathed a sigh of relief, but also a little afraid, for unknown reasons.

Lu Jinxiu looked at Xiao Yuexi again and said, "Sister Xiao, you have been in the palace for a few days, and now you are still shouldering the heavy responsibility of assisting the sixth palace, and you should act steadily and appropriately." ”

Xiao Yuexi raised her eyebrows and asked bluntly: "The concubine doesn't know where to lose her honor, and I hope that the queen will make it clear." ”

A look of astonishment crossed Lu Jinxiu's eyes, as if she didn't expect Xiao Yuexi to suddenly attack and give no one face.

Lu Jinxiu's gaze cooled, and after a while, a touch of disbelief surged on her face, and she said with a righteous and awe-inspiring look in her heart: "Mrs. Xiao, even if the emperor values you, you should know that this palace is the queen, and in front of this palace, you don't even have the least respect?" ”

Xiao Yuexi said: "Queen Mother, the concubine respects you, even if the concubine doesn't like sweets anymore, she also uses the honeydew rewarded by the mother, and there is no disrespect from beginning to end, isn't this still respect?" ”

Lu Jinxiu opened her mouth, but she was choked and had nothing to say.

Xiao Yuexi curled the corners of half of her lips and continued: "But this Zhao Ronghua's words and deeds make the concubine very incomprehensible. Zhao Ronghua, in your eyes, can there be a distinction between dignity and inferiority? Just a glory, dare to cross the queen mother to teach me a lesson? The Zhao family's tutor is really admirable! ”

Zhao Ronghua broke out in a cold sweat with her words, the words she said just now were purely to please the queen, and she also believed that the queen knew this, but things changed from Xiao Yuexi's mouth, and she had previously insinuated that Xiao Yuexi had no tutor, and now she has become the most untutored.

The situation is getting more and more stiff, but Xiao Yuexi doesn't plan to let go of Zhao Ronghua, and she won't stop if she doesn't make things bigger.

Xiao Yuexi looked at the queen and said, "Queen Mother, there is no need to invite concubines for this kind of small banquet in the future." There are no rules for what the concubines do and they don't know how to be polite, so why are they disgusted here? ”

Lu Jinxiu had a stiff smile on her face, and seemed to be trying to bring the field back: "Sister Xiao, where are you talking about this, they are all your own sisters, a few jokes, sister must not take it seriously." ”

"Jokes?" Xiao Yuexi sneered. "The tutor of the Pingnan Hou Mansion and the conduct of the lady of the decree can be used to make jokes, it's really funny!"

Hearing this, Zhao Ronghua was in a cold sweat again, and hurriedly defended himself: "That's not what the concubine meant!" Please check the queen! ”

"The emperor has arrived—"

This sound sounded almost at the same time as Zhao Ronghua's last words, which stunned everyone in the hall.

Several people hurriedly got up to pick up the car, and a bright yellow figure slowly walked in.

Mu Yunqing's gaze first fell on Xiao Yuexi's face, and when he saw that her expression was indifferent, he was slightly relieved.

He was too uneasy, so he came over to take a look, he knew that with Xiao Yuexi's temperament, most of them would not really conflict with others, and he would endure it if he could, but he didn't want her to endure it, and he didn't want her to be wronged, so he had to come to support her in person.

After the ceremony, Lu Jinxiu stepped forward and said respectfully: "The concubine still thinks that the emperor will not be interested in such a small banquet." ”

Mu Yun glanced at her indifferently, swept around Xiao Yuexi's position again, pointed to the honeydew on the table with a surprised face and asked, "The white porcelain bowl can't be honeydew, right?" ”

Xiao Yuexi replied: "Back to the emperor, this is the Qionghua nectar dew prepared by the queen's mother, and the concubines Chen said it was delicious, but unfortunately the concubines had a strange taste and swept the queen Yaxing." ”

In just a few words, Mu Yun easily understood, and said in his heart: Sure enough, I was still wronged.

Mu Yun laughed lightly, and laughed for a while before quipping: "You, you!" I told you not to come, which one of these flowers and plants pastries and honeydew do you like? ”

Xiao Yuexi was stunned, and then understood Mu Yunqing's intentions. She had enough respect on her face to be fake, and said solemnly: "The queen's banquet is not disrespectful. ”

Wei Baolin, who was standing at the end, muttered in a low voice, "Cut! Just now, she looked like no one was in her eyes, but she was well-behaved in front of the emperor. ”
