Chapter Seventy-Six: I Still Have to Adapt
Chapter Seventy-Six: I Still Have to Adapt
"What's the matter, kneeling on the ground, which one was provoked again?"
Yi Yu had never seen Concubine Yang, and when she turned her head when she heard the voice, she saw the delicate woman in a jade big-sleeved palace dress surrounded by a group of palace ladies, and she didn't think about Concubine Yang at all.
"Mother."
"Lady Niangniang."
When Li Chen called and the palace people knelt on the ground and turned around to greet him, Yi Yu knew that this smiling woman in her early thirties was Yang Shufei, the mother of Li Ke and Li Chen, who was over forty years younger.
A year after the death of Empress Changsun, the harem concubines had no head, among the four concubines, Wei Guifei was the highest, and had the children of Li Shen, the tenth son of the emperor, and Princess Linchuan, but Concubine Shu has always been a semi-public candidate for the queen, and Concubine Yang in this position is quite loved by the emperor, and Li Ke, the son of the competition, is naturally delicate, so on the surface, it is the harem in which Wei Guifei is in power, but now it is actually two big.
Chengyang was angry just now, and when Concubine Yang came, she only didn't say hello with a cold face, stretched out her hand and pointed to the kneeling attendant on the ground, gritted her teeth and said, "These minions have eaten the gall of ambitious leopards," as he spoke, looking left and right, he saw that there was only a plate of cherries left on the low table around him, and he stepped forward to serve it without thinking about it, turned around and handed it to Concubine Yang.
"It's just such a small plate, I don't know which bastard idea came out of them, and it humiliated us as peck birds."
"Slap" said, in front of Concubine Yang, the delicate little silver plate fell to the ground, so Yu Yu first tangled, because the poor little plate was hers, Li Tai frowned, everyone was quiet, only Li Yan was annoyed:
"Chengyang, what are you doing?"
"Hehe, okay, this palace should be a big deal," Concubine Yang's laughter was not loud, but it made people ignore Li Chen's voice, she looked left and right at the attendants in the stands, and said, "What about Fudong?" ”
"The minions are here." There was such a big commotion, and the chief waiter who was still busy elsewhere had already run over, but it was just because Chengyang was in a frenzy and it was difficult to speak.
"Go and wash the rest of the red light fruits, serve a plate to Princess Chengyang, and wrap the rest up and let the princess take it back to the house for a while." Concubine Yang didn't seem to be angry at all because Chengyang threw things in front of her and pointed at Sang and scolded Huai, and turned her head to the other princes and princesses, and said kindly:
"This is Yizhou's tribute fruit this year, the emperor likes to eat, the amount is insufficient, if there is more, I will send someone to your house early in the morning, the palace is the lord today and let the chamberlain allocate half of it for you to try it, but I didn't think about it, but I lost the interest, it is the palace that is lost, you don't have to be annoyed, this time you can only let Chengyang take it back to taste."
It turned out that it was Concubine Yang's idea to present this cherry as a refreshment, and Yu Yu came to her senses, and then looked at Chengyang, who had got the remaining tribute fruit, but her face was even more ugly, and she speculated in her heart, this princess, don't be looking for trouble on purpose, too, seeing that Concubine Yang is favored, it is possible to ascend to the position of the head of the harem, as the daughter of the late Empress Changsun, how can she be willing, and Li Chengqian is not angry now, Li Zhi is young, Li Ke is an official who left Beijing, and the limelight is still strong.
That Concubine Yang is really a good means, two or three sentences, she revealed the matter, ignoring Chengyang's previous finger Sang scolding Huai, not only showing her generosity, but also putting Chengyang together by the way, saying that the emperor likes to eat, and giving Chengyang a person, and spreading it, the girl competed with Lao Tzu for food, which was disgusting Chengyang, and she couldn't refute it.
"Okay, don't surround here, let's just make trouble with our own families, but there are a lot of people coming today, so that people can see it, it is inevitable to talk nonsense, you all get up, clean up this mess, and when the emperor comes, just treat it as fine, don't spoil the good mood."
"Concubine Xie." The palace people stood up one after another, and peeked at Concubine Yang gratefully, especially the waiter who had not arranged this red fruit as Concubine Yang's idea before, with a cold sweat and red eyes, he bowed respectfully, and then went down to do things.
Chengyang is not Gao Yang's arrogant and unreasonable master, after suffering a loss, he sat down next to Du He again with a stiff face, Li Yan touched his cheeks, and said to Concubine Yang:
"Mother, did you come in from your son?"
Li Chen was named the king of Shu and was the governor of Yizhou, and this cherry is one of the tribute fruits of Yizhou this year.
"Naturally," Concubine Yang glared at him with a smile, "You are not a director, just learn more from your imperial brother." "This imperial brother is referring to Li Ke.
Concubine Yang was surrounded by a group of palace ladies, turned around and sat down, and after a while, the princes and princesses around them laughed again, as if what had just happened, and Yu Yu held the teacup thoughtfully.
In this Chang'an City, inside and outside the palace, as long as there are people, they are all circles, men conspire and conspire, women intrigue and intrigue, as if it is commonplace everywhere, she has long been mentally prepared, but she really began to adapt to this circle, and remembered what Li Tai said on her birthday two years ago-
If you are strong enough to withstand all the pressures and waves, and to stand by my side, I promise that you will be alone.
Can he do it, or can she?
Li Tai glanced sideways at the people around her, and when she saw the thoughtful look on her face, she knew that she had understood the trouble between Chengyang and Concubine Yang, and she didn't need him to explain anymore, so she leisurely picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
A quarter of an hour later, the stands on three sides were almost full, and the first bow below was also in a white-hot state of urgency and white face, and on the side of Yiyu, a few little princes and princesses came one after another, and they were taken by the palace maids, and greeted the brothers and sisters in a regular manner, before going to sit down, and Yuyu paid attention to it among them, it was the person he wanted to see - the Nine Emperors who later inherited the throne of Li Shimin, Li Zhi, the king of Jin.
About Li Zhi and others, she was curious, but she never asked Li Tai much, she has lived here for more than ten years, the trajectory of history is too weird, and the inscrutable ability to correct it, as early as when their mother and son broke off the relationship with Fang Qiao, and Han Li found a fake mother and son to replace the Lu family and Fang Yi's love, it shocked her, before she observed it clearly, she didn't dare to act rashly, and she couldn't talk nonsense, Li Tai is such a smart person, if he really noticed something, it would be self-defeating.
In the east stand, the last person to come was not Li Ke, but the eldest grandson Xi held a woman who did not lose her color in front of her.
"Sister Huang."
The cry of Princess Chengyang made Yu Yu understand that this ** person with the color of peach and plum was the eldest daughter of Li Shimin and Empress Changsun, and the eldest son of Changsun Chong, who was married to Changle Princess of Changsun Chong, Li Lizhi.
Different from Linchuan's charm, Chengyang's pride, and Gaoyang's verticality, Changle is very delicate and affectionate, a pair of eyes, looking at people, as if she can interpret words, she smiled and nodded with everyone, Yu Yu knew that it was not an illusion, when looking at herself, Changle's eyes were a little cold, too, with her new and old grudges with the eldest grandson's family, she wanted to see herself pleasing to the eye, that was strange. Secretly laughed at himself, but Yu Yu said hello solemnly, and Yu Guang glanced at the lively faces around him, and listened to Changle said:
"I heard Miss Lu's name for a long time, but I only saw it today, and there is really a difference."
The difference? Is this praising her or mocking her, Yu Yu said softly: "The princess is too famous." "Well, it's just a compliment.
Changle smiled at her again, and then led Changsun Xi to sit on the empty seat in the back row of Li Tai, and the horse Changsun Chong did not come with him, I don't know if he was sitting opposite, the princes and princesses here are all used to seeing handsome men and beautiful women, and they are immune to Changsun Xi's beauty, so they will not be as stupid as outsiders.
As for Yu Yu, he noticed that there were two more pairs of eyes behind him, he felt uncomfortable, his face was not obvious at all, he looked down and saw a little vermilion on the side of the leg, and picked it up, but it was a cherry that had been sprinkled on the ground just now and was not cleaned up.
It's a pity, it's rare to see your favorite fruit, but there is no mouthful, and this is still Li Chen's Yin boy's territory to pay tribute, she pouted, pinching the soft red peel, if her peculiar ability is still there, there is a seed, she can make it germinate, with the current fruit-carrying technology alone, it is difficult to realize the idea of planting cherries, or how much Yizhou is such a big place, only to enter the palace so little.
Li Tai didn't miss the action of Yu Yu's pouting, this is a habit of hers, whenever she is depressed, she will subconsciously make this small action, and sweep the red fruit in her hand, and then say with a light face:
"Since you like it, wait for this king to come to you."
What do you want? Yiyu looked back at him in confusion, at this time, Gong'e came up with a plate the size of two palms, and put it in front of Chengyang, attracting Changle and Changsun Xi who were sitting next to each other, Chengyang was pulled back by Concubine Yang.
"Bring the plate."
When I looked up, I saw Li Tai leaning back, turning his head sideways to talk to her, Chengyang didn't understand for a while, and said:
"Brother Huang is talking to me?"
Li Tai bowed, raised his hand without holding the wine glass, and pointed to the plate of red fruits, "I think you can't eat it now." ”
So the tangled person was replaced by Chengyang, she couldn't eat it, everyone knew why, but she couldn't say it in such a big vernacular, her face was embarrassed, and she didn't feel annoyed, she knew in her heart that she could be mad at Concubine Yang, but she couldn't be angry with the four emperor brothers.
asked Gong E to divide two small plates and give them to Changle's table, and brought the plate to Li Tai's case.
Yi Yu looked at the extra plate of cherries on the case, and wanted to laugh dryly, knowing that Li Tai was used to being casual, when he encountered simple things, he would not waste his brains, like this, others did some faceless things, but if he was replaced, it would make people take it for granted.
Even Li Yan paid attention to the movement here, but there was no special reaction, the only one with a different look was Changsun Xi, who bowed his head to pour wine.
