Chapter 60: The Feast of the Hung Gate

Under the bright moonlight, a person wearing a black cloak hurriedly entered the Autumn Maple Garden.

Gong Jiyue welcomed her in, looked around, and then stayed outside the house.

After she walked into the house, she took off her cloak and revealed a delicate little face, which was Aunt Hua who had come to treat her illness.

Feng Lingye invited her into the inner room, and she had a worried face, "Princess, the tree is big and windy, and it is easy to cause trouble if the edge is too exposed, why are you openly making enemies with Zhuang Nanyan and them today?" ”

"If you don't do this, how can you put it to death and come back to life?" She smiled indifferently.

Duan Junmo, Zhuang Nanyan and Xi Xueyao already regarded her as a thorn in the flesh, and if they blindly retreated, it would only make the road ahead more difficult.

What she did today was nothing more than to tell them that if they wanted to fight openly, their identities could not match her at all, and they were able to stand in the palace so far, relying on Duan Junmo's favor and maintenance.

Therefore, if they want to push her down, they have to rely on some cunning methods, and what she is doing now is not only to get back what belongs to her, but also to use their own bureau to push things to another level, so high that Duan Junmo can't suppress it.

Once things evolve to the point where Duan Junmo can't end it, the final winner will naturally be the one who controls the overall situation.

Aunt Hua is a smart person, and she knows that Feng Lingye has her own plan for everything she does, so she didn't ask much, "You should be careful, things are unpredictable, and accidents are always inevitable." ”

"Yes." Feng Ling smiled at night, "Let's start." ”

Aunt Hua nodded.

Feng Lingye took out a silver needle, and then explained: "I will pierce this silver needle into your sleeping point to relieve the pain during your operation and prevent you from disturbing and affecting the operation."

"No problem, you stab." Aunt Hua looked at her with a firm and trusting gaze.

She took the silver needle, then walked behind Aunt Hua and gently pierced the silver needle into Aunt Hua's spine.

Aunt Hua couldn't help but be a little puzzled, the sleeping hole turned out to be on the back? But soon, she lost consciousness, and she didn't feel anything, only that the world was blurry.

I don't know how long it took, when she woke up, she was already lying on the head of the bed in Yuhua Pavilion, she propped herself up and saw that it was still dark, and there was still some faint pain in the place where the operation had been performed.

At this time, Yuzhen saw that she was awake, so she quickly got up from the small bed, "Master, are you awake?" ”

"How did I come back and how long did I sleep?" She asked, confused, her body still feeling limp.

Yuzhen hurriedly poured a cup of hot water from the kettle on the stove and handed it to her, "The master was sent back by Miss Xiaoyue, and he has been lying in bed for two or three hours. ”

After drinking the hot water, Aunt Hua lay back again, remembering that a small silver needle could make her sleep for so long, and she couldn't help but feel magical for a while.

Three days later.

Feng Lingye was sitting in the corridor of the outer courtyard, leisurely flipping through the script to pass the time.

Green Lotus and Tao Yao are also in the inner courtyard, embroidering flowers and plants, chatting and laughing, and they don't regard themselves as outsiders at all.

Outside the gate, I saw Zilu slowly walking in, looking at the mansion compound, my heart was suddenly full of envy, this is the courtyard that the concubine has been thinking about for a long time, but I didn't expect it to fall into the hands of Feng Lingye in the end.

Although she was jealous in her heart, because of Jian Luo's incident, not only her, but all the subordinates did not dare to underestimate the seemingly gentle and leisurely woman in front of her.

So, she walked to Feng Lingye's side, and actually saluted respectfully, smiling, "I've seen the princess." ”

Feng Lingye raised her eyes slightly and looked at her.

She immediately took out a dark red invitation with silver trim from her arms, "The first assistant of the cabinet has a big birthday, thinking that there will be more people, so I invited the prince, the princess and the masters of the palace to attend the banquet together." ”

"Otoju?" Feng Lingye frowned slightly, "I remember, Lord Shoufu seems to be less than fifty years old, how did he start his birthday?" ”

Zilu was stunned for a moment, and immediately changed her words with a smile, "The princess is right, it was the slave maid who didn't pass the word in place, and it should be the birthday of Lord Shoufu." ”

If there is nothing to do, how could Feng Lingye not know the thoughts behind this group of people, so he took the post and agreed.

"The slave maid is going to deliver the post to Concubine Qin soon, so she won't disturb the princess's rest." Zilu smiled and took three steps back, then turned around and left.

As soon as she stepped out of Qiufeng Garden, her face changed, and she glared coldly at the compound behind her, seeing how arrogant she would be after tomorrow night!

Gong Jiyue happened to come out with a fruit plate, saw the invitation in Feng Lingye's hand, and glanced at Zilu who had not gone far yet, "Are they starting to act?" ”

"It should be almost." Feng Lingye put down the invitation and took an orange, "Since Xi Niancheng is Duan Junmo's person, then this Xi Xueyao is the hub between the two, Xi Xueyao was humiliated by me a few days ago, and Xi Nian has become a hub to protect this one, so naturally he will not sit idly by." ”

"So, this is still a Hongmen feast?" He sat down lazily beside her, took half of the orange she had peeled, and put it in his mouth.

"It's indeed the Hongmen Banquet," the corners of her lips curled a faint arc, "It's just whose Hongmen Banquet is, but they don't have the final say." ”

As she spoke, she looked at him again, "How did you recover from the losses of the Heavenly Pavilion last time?" ”

"Don't worry, it's more than enough to deal with a banquet held by Shousuke." He gave her a reassuring smile.

Young.

Zilu came to Lanxiang Pavilion and handed the invitation to Zhuang Nanyan, who took the post and asked, "She accepted it?" ”

"The prince and you are gone, does she dare not put up a fight?" Zilu smiled.

Zhuang Nanyan knew about their conspiracy this time, but she didn't participate in it, she always felt that this bureau was too simple, and Feng Lingye was not so easy to be fooled, so she told her uneasily, "You ask your concubine to be careful, don't steal chickens and rice." ”

"Don't worry, this time there is Lord Shoufu, and she is difficult to fly this time." Zilu comforted Zhuang Nanyan instead.

Zhuang Nanyan didn't want to say anything, so he let Zilu retreat.

Since he had to go to the banquet the next day, Zhuang Nanyan still had to be responsible for some preparations, such as some clothes when attending the banquet.

Thinking that Feng Lingye didn't have any clothes that he could handle, in case he lost face at the banquet at that time, I was afraid that it would fall into the ears of the queen and emperor, and it would not sound good.

So she asked Jian Luo to go to the ready-to-wear shop to buy a set of dresses, and then sent them to Qiufeng Garden.

When Lu He and Tao Yao took this gorgeous dress, they were suddenly full of envy, couldn't put it down, and constantly competed to compare it on themselves.

It happened that Feng Lingye passed by and saw the two of them scrambling.

When Lu He and Tao Yao saw it, they hurriedly loosened their clothes, and the clothes immediately fell to the ground, and the two quickly picked them up again.

"What is this?" Feng Lingye asked lightly.

Tao Yaoshan was bolder, so she replied with a smile: "This is the skirt sent by Miss Jian Luo, and it is said that Concubine Qin gave it to the princess to wear for the banquet tomorrow."

Feng Lingye glanced at the skirt and wrote lightly: "If you like it, then I will reward you."

Tao Yao was stunned.

Midori looked at her in disbelief.

After being surprised, Tao Yao immediately saluted her with a happy eyebrow, "The slave has thanked the princess for her gift!" ”

Lu He clenched her fists tightly, she knew that the princess didn't care so much, so she asked the princess directly, but she couldn't bear to save face, so after Feng Lingye left, she couldn't help but say sourly, "Such an old-fashioned skirt, the princess can't look down on it before giving it to you, you are still a treasure!" ”

"Such a precious cloud-woven fabric, the aunts in the palace may not be able to wear it, so why be old-fashioned?" Tao Yao showed off proudly, then took her skirt and happily returned to the house.

The next evening, the people in the palace also began to set out.

In front of the mansion, a total of two carriages were parked, one for the prince and the princess, and the other for the side concubine.

Feng Lingye only glanced at the spacious carriage in front of him, and then got on the second one without hesitation.

Duan Junmo's face, she didn't want to look at it more.

It didn't take long for Xi Xueyao to get into the carriage, and when she saw that she was also there, she was stunned, and then smiled again, "You are really conscious." ”

"My sister's makeup is very fair today, I don't know what kind of powder is used?" Feng Ling smiled gently, which pot is not opened, which pot is not opened.

Sure enough, Xi Xueyao's face sank, if it weren't for the bruises on her face, would she have smeared it so white?

Twenty slaps that day, she will return it one day sooner or later!

The carriage moved forward slowly, Xi Xueyao knew that her mouth was not as powerful as Feng Lingye, and she was no longer bored, so she went all the way to Xi's mansion in silence.

At this time, Xi Niancheng personally took several sons to greet the distinguished guests at the door, and after seeing Duan Junmo get out of the carriage, he immediately walked over, "Lord Lao personally came to participate in the banquet of the old minister, which really made the old minister's humble house shine!" ”

"You and I are in-laws, and Lord Shoufu is polite." Duan Junmo replied coldly.

The two exchanged pleasantries, and Zhuang Nanyan walked down from the carriage elegantly and dignified at this time, which suddenly made the surrounding female guests gasp in amazement.

I saw that she was wearing a white gauze skirt today, covered with a lilac thin robe, embroidered with silver silk stamens on the collar, an elegant and refined Lingyun bun, the skirt dragged to the ground, and every step she took, the golden step on her head sparkled, bright and moving, especially the pair of transparent jadeite on her ears, which was priceless.

At this time, Xi Xueyao also stepped down from the carriage, although she was not dressed shabby, but compared with Zhuang Nanyan, she became a follower, and she was immediately dissatisfied.

Xi Niancheng walked over and asked politely: "This is Concubine Qin of the Prince's Mansion, please come in quickly."

Then, he gave Xi Xueyao another look, "Today you are also half a master, please welcome Concubine Qin to the back garden." ”

Xi Xueyao walked over unhappily, and together with her brother-in-law, welcomed Zhuang Nanyan and Duan Junmo into the Xi Mansion.

At this time, Feng Lingye was the only one left, and after she walked out, the atmosphere around her became a little weird, and everyone's enthusiasm and politeness were reduced, replaced by the sound of ear-to-ear discussions.

"Who's that? You see that the maids behind her are all better dressed than her. ”

"Who else can there be, naturally the unfavored princess."

"No wonder she was in the carriage of the side concubine, it turned out to be her."

......

Feng Lingye didn't take these people's words to heart, and took Gong Jiyue towards the mansion.

Lu He and Tao Yao felt that this was a shameful thing, and quickly lowered their heads and quickened their pace.

Passing by the door, Xi Niancheng probably felt that his identity was here, and it was not good not to greet him, so he said politely, "Princess, please." ”

Feng Lingye bowed slightly, in response, and then stepped over the threshold and walked in.

The banquet is arranged in the back garden and is divided into two parts, which are protected by large trees, one part is the place where the men feast and the other is the place where the ladies are entertained.

Due to the limited terrain, the two parts are very close to each other, and you can see each other when you stand up, and it is divided into two places, which is just the meaning.

Tonight, Feng Lingye was very low-key, and most of the people who came to the banquet were from Xi Niancheng, so she was naturally isolated.

At this time, the eldest lady in charge of the Xi Mansion had not yet come, so all the ladies and relatives surrounded Zhuang Nanyan to boast about their strengths and weaknesses, and all kinds of nice words were used, so they sent her to kneel and kowtow.

Xi Xueyao's eyes were red when she saw it on the side, especially for Zhuang Nanyan's clothes today, but she had one more title than her, so she dared to dress so grandly, as if tonight was her birthday.

Feng Lingye sat casually in a corner, leisurely eating the almonds in the melon and fruit bowl, as if he was an outsider.

At this time, the male guest's side suddenly fell silent, as if someone had come.

Most of the female guests here were some young girls, who were originally curious about the next door, and when they heard the movement, they stretched their necks to look over, and after seeing the elegant and dusty white figure in the crowd, they couldn't help but jump up a little.

"Look at it, isn't that His Royal Highness the Prince? Why did he come too? ”

"I heard that he has a weak temperament, and even at the banquets held by the emperor and queen, he rarely appears, but I didn't expect to come tonight!"

"Did he know I was coming, so he came to see me?"

......
