Chapter 139: Let's Find Fault
"What, don't you want to say it?" Nian Yingxi smiled lazily, then put down the cup in her hand and leaned back in the chair, "If you don't say it, then I'm sorry, I can't accompany this wine, I'm not used to drinking with Anonymous." ”
Concubine Qi, who was sitting not far away, looked at Concubine Xi in the hall whose face was getting more and more ugly, and weighed it in her heart, she didn't expect that this new queen was also a unforgiving lord, it seemed that Concubine Xi could stand it this time, but when she thought about it again, she hooked her lips and drank a glass of wine alone with a smile, in fact, this is good, as the saying goes, violence can be controlled, maybe this new queen was born to restrain Concubine Xi.
The stiff Concubine Xi felt that all eyes were focused on her, and the gaze with ridicule and excitement made her whole body burn as if it were on fire.
In a dilemma, she held her breath in her heart, raised her eyes and looked at Nian Yingxi again, "The concubine is the emperor's titled Concubine Xi, and it is right that the new queen has never heard of it when she first enters the palace, but this name and the like will be remembered by the queen in the future, otherwise if today's situation is repeated, I am afraid that someone will say that the queen is derelict in her duties." As she spoke, she couldn't help laughing, and the flattering smile of flowers and branches was the last trace of defense in this hall.
She has been favored in this deep palace for so long, she has never tasted such humiliation as today, she must not escape and lose to a newly baked chick, even if it hurts, she will break her teeth and swallow blood.
Nian Yingxi smiled and nodded, she accepted Concubine Xi's words, before she got up, she first glanced at Xuan Yining beside her, and saw that he really didn't want to stop it, so she couldn't help but sigh in her heart, Xuan Yining, you are a kind of girl, and you are so protective of your woman to make trouble for me!
While retracting her gaze, Nian Yingxi got up and left her seat, and with the support of Zidie, she walked down the steps step by step and stood in front of Concubine Xi.
She looked at Concubine Xi opposite her with a clear gaze, and I have to say that this woman does have a good face, but it's a pity, she is not a person who pities fragrant and cherishes jade, so everyone is the same, as long as she dares to provoke her, don't blame her for not being emotional!
And she was still thinking about what she could do on the way here to make a shot in this harem, so that those who had no fear would be discouraged, and now that the lamb to be slaughtered had been sent to the door in person, if she was polite, it would be a little rude for her.
When Nian Yingxi looked at Concubine Xi, Concubine Xi was actually looking at Nian Yingxi, she never believed that any woman could surpass herself, of course, even if there was something that could surpass, she would personally cut that person's grass, except for that person's roots, because this harem was hers, from the moment she entered the palace, until she died in the palace of old age.
This glory belongs to her alone, no matter who it is, don't want to snatch it from her hands!
The breath flowing in the air seemed to be stagnant between Nian Yingxi and Concubine Xi, they stood in the main hall in the same clothes, with evenly matched beauty and figure, and in the silent air, a silent battle was fought.
The other concubines sitting below were all holding their breath, not daring to blink, looking, looking, and no one intervened.
They all know very well that this is a battle between the new master and the old master, and it is not at all that any of them can stop or help.
Gui Luhai, who had been worried all the time hanging in the air, trembled, and he lowered his eyes and carefully glanced at Xuan Yining, who was still sitting firmly in Mount Tai, and his sad old face was about to squeeze out water.
He really couldn't understand what was wrong with the emperor today, and how he allowed Concubine Xi to mess around like this on such an important occasion.
"The queen mother, please, the concubine is polite." Concubine Xi, who had seen enough, retracted her gaze, and when she spoke, she first raised her arms and drank the wine in her hand.
Nian Yingxi smiled slightly, and watched Concubine Xi drink the wine in her hand cleanly, before she raised her wine glass and drank it all.
Concubine Xi saw that Nian Yingxi also drank all the wine in the cup, and smiled and retired, "The emperor's mother is so appreciative of her face, it is a blessing for the concubine, and the queen is invited to take a seat." As she spoke, she raised her gaze a little more and looked towards Xuan Yining on the high seat, "Emperor Xie gave permission to the concubine, and asked Hangzhou Shang to allow the concubine to return to her seat." ”
Xuan Yining, who was sitting on a high place, saw that things were almost over, and raised his arm and was thinking about letting Concubine Xi retreat, but before he could speak out, he was blocked by another voice.
"Your Majesty." Nian Yingxi raised her eyes, although there was some drunken haze in her eyes, she still couldn't stop the clarity of her pupils, "Since Concubine Xi is so knowledgeable and understands etiquette, if she goes back if she is not happy, won't it make the other sisters think that I am neglected?" ”
In this battle, Concubine Xi already knew that she had the upper hand, so she wanted to retreat to her seat, in order to recuperate and settle accounts in the future, and now when she heard Nian Yingxi's words, she turned her eyes to Nian Yingxi in surprise and annoyance, she really didn't expect that Nian Yingxi would be entangled with herself to the end.
Nian Yingxi ignored the anger that burst out of Concubine Xi, and still focused her eyes on Xuan Yining's body, when she looked directly at Xuan Yining, she didn't mean to avoid it at all, since this is a farce, so if it doesn't make trouble, how can it be lively?
Where did the concubines of the various palaces think that this new queen would be so bold, not only blocked the emperor's words, but also didn't want Concubine Xi to go down this step, now it seems that everyone has to sweat for Nian Yingxi, because of her boldness and fearlessness, after all, from the time they entered the palace to the present, no one has dared to intercept the emperor's words so boldly, that is, the Xi concubine, who has always been favored, is also cautious in the face of the emperor.
Xuan Yining, whose arm was still lightly raised in the air, looked at Nian Yingxi's unwillingness to show weakness, and after being silent for a long time, he finally put down his arm, "How can I be considered happy?" His slender eyes were exquisite, and the corners of his eyes were slightly raised, and there was not the slightest hint of anger.
His actions like this undoubtedly did not make other people in the hall stumble, and no one expected that Nian Yingxi would not receive any punishment, but the emperor's disguised tolerance.
Concubine Xi couldn't believe it, raised her eyes from Nian Yingxi's body, and looked towards Xuan Yining, when she saw the smile on the corner of Xuan Yining's eyes, she was all jealous and surprised, she had never seen Xuan Yining show such a tolerant smile to anyone, and she didn't even dare to think that this smile would one day appear on the handsome face of this emperor who couldn't figure out his mind.
Nian Yingxi was very satisfied with Xuan Yining's unhindered answer, turned her head and ordered the purple butterfly behind her, then turned her head with a smile and looked at the other seats in the hall, "Is there anything else you want to toast?" ”
With a quiet silent answer, although Zidie was very surprised by Nian Yingxi's explanation just now, she still didn't dare to hesitate to retreat from the hall and go to work according to Nian Yingxi's explanation.
"Mother, is this a turnaround?" He kept staring at the blue water in the center of the hall and asked in a low voice.
This time, Concubine Qi did not blame Lan Shui's mouthy and eventful, but smiled bitterly, her eyes were clear, "The newcomers of the past generations are better than the old ones, and whoever does not believe in evil will die ugly, and this new queen seems to be not just as simple as a newcomer!" "Yes, can you get such tolerance from the emperor, how can it be explained by a novelty?
Lan Shui blinked his eyes a few times as if he didn't understand, and continued to cast his gaze towards the center of the main hall without saying a word.
After a while, there was a sound of footsteps in the quiet hall, and the concubines who had been sitting in their positions looked towards the voice, only to see that it was the purple butterfly just now, carrying two jars full of wine, walking towards the steps.
Xuan Yining, who was on the high platform, looked at the two jars of wine in Zidie's hands, and the thin lips under the white jade-like nose bridge pulled out a shallow arc, and chuckled very shallowly.
He should have known that Nian Yingxi would not give up on Concubine Xi who came to provoke, but he didn't expect her to go crazy like this.
With a sound of 'dang', Purple Butterfly put the two wine jars that were full of overflowing wine in front of Nian Yingxi.
Nian Yingxi looked at Zidie's red face and panting, and pulled her up, "Go to the back and rest, there's nothing for you here." ”
Purple Butterfly nodded, took a few steps back, and stood quietly aside waiting for Nian Yingxi.
Nian Yingxi bent down and squatted on the ground, reached out and lifted the lids of the two jars of wine still on the ground, as the smell of the wine slowly came out of the wine jar, she got up and clapped her hands, looking at Concubine Xi and laughing evilly, "Concubine Xi, please." ”
Concubine Xi was a little stunned, she first looked at Nian Ying's unhappy smile, and then looked at the two large jars of wine on the ground, and shook her body as if she understood and didn't understand, "What does the queen mean?" ”
"Don't understand?" Nian Yingxi tilted her head and smiled even more evilly, "The ancients said: It's fun to have friends from afar, since Concubine Xi regards me, the new queen of the palace, as a friend, how can she not be happy?" Now there is no queen and concubine Xi, only you and me, so it is a little bit of my return gift, and today we will drink the wine in this jar, do you think it is good? ”
Her words made Concubine Xi feel that her whole person had been soaked in the wine jar, she stared at Nian Yingxi in disbelief, and after staring at Nian Yingxi for a long time, she suddenly raised her head and cast a distress-like gaze towards Xuan Yining on the high platform.
"Your Majesty." Concubine Xi said, kneeling on the ground, a pair of moving eyes filled with tears, "The concubine has been familiar with female taming and female scriptures since she was a child, and she knows that women drink wine for the sake of sketches, and the drinking of sweet wine is done by men, how can it be that women can emulate?" Now that the queen mother persuades the concubines to drink like this, the concubines are deeply frightened! ”
