Chapter 28: The side concubine enters the door
Due to the acquiescence of Su Yichen, the wedding banquet was almost single-handedly organized by Yueji, and the guests were greeted with the posture of the hostess. Although the guests will also secretly discuss whether this move is unreasonable, but thinking of Prince Chen's rooster worship hall, it is normal now.
The ministers and doctors drank and enjoyed themselves in the lobby, and Yueji took the ladies of various mansions to have a small gathering in the backyard. At this moment, Yueji smiled lightly, had proper etiquette, and greeted the ladies humbly and politely, just like a housewife, this feeling made Yueji's heart surging, and she hated that she was a righteous concubine.
Of course, not everyone buys this account, and Bai Xuan'er, the princess of Su Yiling, looks at this woman with a smirk on her face unpleasantly.
"I said Yueji, is there no one in your palace, how can you marry a concubine for such a big thing and ask your concubine to come forward to preside. This concubine is also your future master, and it sounds ridiculous to let someone handle the master's marriage. ”
Yuehime's face changed, but she didn't dare to show displeasure, so she could only reluctantly hook the corners of her mouth, and said with an aggrieved expression, "Yueji also knows that this is unreasonable. But the princess is also a newcomer to the palace and is not very familiar with these trivial matters. I think the princess is tolerant and generous, and I won't blame the princess. ”
With a soft sentence, all the accusations against himself were transferred to Baili Lan's body, and Yuehime can be said to have done a beautiful job. It's just that she was full of calculations, and she didn't notice a figure behind her that was getting closer and closer.
Looking at Yueji's cunning appearance, Bai Xuan'er thought of the little sluts in her yard who were unwilling to be lonely, and she was even more angry, and just wanted to say a few sarcastic words, she saw a woman in an ice blue dress walking towards her. Bai Xuan'er was shocked, she didn't know that there was such a beautiful character in King Chen's mansion.
Seeing that Bai Xuan'er was silent, Yueji thought that she had listened to her excuse and counted the black cauldron on Baili Lan's head, and she couldn't help but be secretly happy in her heart. But before joy could climb into her eyes, she heard a sound behind her that would wake her up from her dreams.
"Who prepared this dinner?"
There was a wild beat in her heart for no reason, Yueji suppressed the panic in her heart, and said with low eyebrows, "Returning to the princess, yes, it's Steward Zhao." ”
"Zhao You?" Bai Lilan slowly walked into the courtyard, and her beautiful face made everyone suffocated, "As far as I know, the power in Zhao Zhi's hands is not enough to decide the banquet dishes of the palace." ”
"This ...... I don't know, it's just the princess, I don't know what's wrong with these dishes? ”
Baili Lan smiled coldly, then raised the steamed sea bass on the table next to her and said, "What's wrong?" If I'm not mistaken, Tsukihime was the daughter of a fisherman before she entered the palace, right? ”
Tsukihime nodded uncomfortably.
"As a kid growing up by the sea, there's no reason why you shouldn't know the difference between sea bass and salmon, right?"
Yueji only felt a bang in her head, and then looked at the steamed sea bass in Bai Lilan's hand in shock, and muttered in disbelief, "Impossible, impossible, I obviously remember that the freshest sea bass was bought by the next person, how could it become salmon?" ”
"Only you know the answer." Bai Lilan gently put down the plate in her hand, and let out a slight "click" sound, listening to Yueji's ears, but it seemed to be a loud bang, "I originally believed in you, so I handed over such a major matter to you, but I didn't want to disclose it in a small matter, I really don't know if you were unintentional or intentional." ”
Seeing that Yueji, who was still showing off her martial arts just now, was pale at the moment, trembling all over, Bai Xuan'er said proudly, "Oh, how can this be good." If the other dishes are wrong, it's fine. It's sea bass! Our country of Bac Ninh has many mountains and rivers and few Heze, and fish is very precious, especially sea bass, which can be eaten by people with distinguished status. Salmon is different, lowly and vulgar, and can be eaten by ordinary people. Hey, although the side concubine can't be compared with the main concubine, but she gave the Ou family this kind of thing for no reason, I don't know what people will think! ”
The more Bai Xuan'er spoke, the paler Yueji's face became. After the chaos just now, Tsukihime can clearly remember that it was indeed sea bass sent by the fishermen today. It seems that these are all ghosts made by Baili Lan, digging a trap and waiting to jump by themselves! But she Yueji is not a person to mess with, since she wants to pull her to carry the black cauldron, then she has to bear the consequences!
Her eyes narrowed, Yueji's heart sank, and she said with her heart in her arms, "Princess, it's not right for you to hit a rake now, isn't it the salmon you asked me to prepare so that I can give the princess a dismount?" Now let me carry this black pot alone, how am I unwilling! ”
The corners of her mouth were slightly hooked, and Baili Lan walked leisurely to Yueji's side, and her insightful gaze made Yueji suddenly regret it, thinking that it would be a terrible thing to tear her face with such a woman.
"I'm going to give the princess a dismount? Hmph, how the hell is your brain, and you can think of such a low-level excuse! Not to mention that the prince didn't take a fancy to this side concubine at all, even if he did, what if he did, with the queen mother supporting me, who could still take my place? But you, who have always been timid and afraid, why did you take the initiative to take on the heavy responsibility this time? I didn't think much of it, but if you think about the cause and effect at this moment, it seems that you were instructed by someone. Baili Lan's deep eyes looked straight at Yueji, and the bottom of her eyes seemed to be flashing with a bewitching luster, which made people sink with it, without the strength to struggle, "Quickly tell who instructed you, maybe you still have a chance of life, you don't want to be sold to an unknown place at a young age, and be a man's plaything for a lifetime, right?" Tell me, who is it? ”
"Yes, who is it? I don't know! ”
"You don't know?" Slowly approaching Yuehime, Baili Lan smiled unpredictably, "Do you really not know, or are you afraid that if you say it, that person will not spare you?" Who acquiesced to your wedding banquet in the first place, who made you dare not disobey, and who made you willing to die for it? At this point, are you still going to take on everything for such a person? Tsukihime, Tsukihime, I never knew you were such a stupid woman! ”
She actually wants to blame the prince for this, oh my God, is this woman crazy!
Looking at the stunned Yuehime, Baili Lan slowly stood up straight, and looked around at the glamorous ladies and ladies around her, and suddenly felt in a good mood.
The words just now have been remembered by someone with a heart, and for the rest, without her Baili Lan participating, naturally someone is willing to help the trouble. The more chaotic the situation, the better, only in chaos, Baili Lan will have a chance to reverse the disadvantage!
Gently pulled down the long skirt, Baili Lan's eyebrows and eyes were lowered, and her posture was beautiful, and she was not aggressive at all. But at this moment, no one dares to underestimate this resolute woman.
Inside the new house –
Ou Zhilan's maid Yingge wandered anxiously at the door, and looked out from time to time.
"Miss, the front hall has been quiet for a long time, why haven't you seen the prince."
"Don't wait." As soon as Yingge finished speaking, Ou Zhilan uncovered the red hijab by herself. The soft light of the red candle is reflected on a dignified and quiet face, and the shadows change.
"Oh miss, why did you remove the hijab yourself, unlucky!" Ying Ge hurriedly squatted beside Ou Zhilan and persuaded bitterly, "You are waiting, maybe the prince will be able to come in a while." ”
Ou Zhilan smiled dismally, her eyes were empty, "You haven't heard of his style, even the concubine will worship with a rooster, and today I can give me a wedding completely, which is already to give the second uncle's face." Let's not expect anything else. ”
"How can the young lady be the same as that abandoned woman!" Yingge's eyes were red, and she bit her lip and said, "Baili Lan is a well-known straw bag beauty, except for being pretty, what can she compete with Miss." But you are different, not to mention that the second master is in an important position, you are a famous talented woman in the capital, how many people are subservient to your talent, and the person who wanted to ask for marriage almost stepped through the threshold of the European mansion. You can rest assured, the prince is like a mirror in his heart, and he will definitely find your good! ”
Ou Zhilan smiled faintly, as if she was comforting Yingge and herself, "I hope it will be like this." Yingge, do you see that the red lantern has been extinguished outside? ”
Yingge looked out and nodded tearfully.
In Bac Ninh, red lanterns are lit all night only when the main room is married, and others, even the side concubines, can only light red lanterns at the night banquet. At the end of the feast, the red lantern symbolizing the wedding is extinguished.
Getting the expected answer, Ou Zhilan's eyes couldn't help but pass a cold teardrop, as if sighing, as if screaming, "Although before marrying into the palace, I thought that I would be treated coldly, but I didn't expect everything to come so quickly. Yingge, in the future, only our master and servant will depend on each other. ”
Seeing that the most perfect woman in her mind was treated so unfairly, Yingge cried and secretly swore that she must protect Ou Zhilan and get what she deserves!
***
On the wedding night, Prince Chen still did not spoil the bride, but lived in a favored concubine. But unlike the last time when the whole capital was watching the excitement, this time, whether it was the government or the opposition or the people in the teahouse, there was a saying that Prince Chen was not satisfied with the emperor repeatedly pointing him to marry, and the object was still the niece of the mighty general, so he was dissatisfied and never touched the side concubine. Such statements intensified, and in the end, the Queen Mother had to summon Su Yichen and ask him what he really thought.
Although Shu Yichen coveted the position of the crown prince, he was unwilling to join forces with Ou Qingshan. That old fox is cruel in his mind and does not act in a downright manner, far from being a gentleman.
However, he didn't want to join forces with Ou Qingshan, some people wanted to tie the knot, but they couldn't get the point.
Listening carefully to Bai Xuan'er's clear account of what happened that day, Su Yiling couldn't help but laugh and exclaimed, "What a smart woman in ice and snow, her methods are ruthless enough, and even her own man dares to calculate." ”
Seeing Su Yiling praising other women, Bai Xuan'er couldn't help but feel a little surprised, "Hey, that's your second sister-in-law, don't beat other people's ideas!" ”
Shu Yiling knew the temperament of this vinegar jar, so of course she couldn't reveal her thoughts in her heart, so she had to be patient and reassure, "What do you want, that woman is a hot potato, how can we Xuan'er be intimate and lovely!" ”
"Hmph, you'll coax people." Although she said this, Bai Xuan'er still leaned on Su Yiling's shoulder with a happy face.
And in front of Su Yiling, there was the figure of the cold and arrogant woman.
