Chapter 23: The Family Banquet Stirs Up Turmoil

The so-called family banquet, in fact, there are not many people, Leng Yue thinks it's funny, just a man is surrounded by dozens of women, like what? A male version of the queen bee? At the time of the feast, the outside of the hall was already dark.

Everyone sat down according to their identities, the queen and the emperor were in the middle of the main seat, and the concubine was Leng Yue, and then the others.

"Concubine Yue, sit down next to me!" The emperor said to Leng Yue with pity.

Leng Yue looked at it, the queen must not be able to move the place, then there is only the concubine, she is sitting next to the emperor. Hearing this, Concubine Pian got up meekly and pulled Leng Yue over to sit down, and Leng Yue smiled at her awkwardly.

"Today is a family dinner, let's be casual." The emperor gave an order, and the first one raised his chopsticks and took a bite, and the others dared to move.

Leng Yue observed the queen carefully, her mind was incredibly peaceful, she laughed when she should laugh, ate and drink, where did she look like she had fallen out of favor? This kind of calm and relaxation is really elusive!

During the banquet, the little princess ran to Leng Yue's side and said softly, "Can I sit next to you?" ”

Leng Yue smiled lovingly: "Of course you can, come, sit here." With the company of the little princess, the sense of oppression on Leng Yue's body suddenly disappeared, and she worked hard to pick up vegetables for the little princess.

After the family banquet, Concubine Lian smiled and pulled the little princess out of Leng Yue's arms: "Thank you, sister, for taking care of Yu'er." ”

Leng Yue separated after greeting her for a few words, returned to Luoxia Palace, Leng Yue couldn't wait to remove her makeup, and then climbed into bed and fell asleep. Xing'er, who was watching, snickered, and took Leng Yue's pulse at the age of nine years, and left with peace of mind after finding that there were no signs of poisoning.

I don't know what time it was, Xing'er woke up Leng Yue: "Niangniang - get up quickly." ”

"What's going on?" If it weren't for the big thing, Xing'er wouldn't dare to wake her up in the middle of the night. Leng Yue suddenly had an indescribable feeling in her heart, she was panicked, what was the big mess again?

Xing'er looked flustered and said, "Niangniang, Princess Tian'er has been poisoned and died." “

Leng Yue heard the words like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and was stunned! At the dinner party, she was still jumping and dancing, one moment clamoring to eat that, the other clamoring to eat this. Okay, it's only a blink of an eye, and it takes less than two hours to die? That lively and cute little girl, dead? Two lines of tears, meandering down, shed for the little princess who died, but also for another person.

The sky revealed the white of the fish's belly, and a scroll of holy decrees came, "Niangniang, please accept the decree!" Ruan's urging voice shattered all of Leng Yue's hopes.

"Niangniang, alas, ......" Father-in-law Ruan looked at Leng Yue, who was expressionless, and sighed softly, as if he had something to say, but when he spoke, it was, "The emperor said, please move to the cold palace today." ”

"Thank you for your grace. I'm going right away! Leng Yue held the holy decree embroidered with gold silk and slowly got up, without a trace of expression on her face.

"You two send your mother to the cold palace! The old slave retreated first, and the mother took care. Commanding the two eunuchs behind him, the old eyes of Gonggong Ruan seemed to convey something to Leng Yue.

"Father-in-law, go slowly!" Leng Yue stood up and raised his eyebrows, his surprisingly calm made him worry.

"Mother, you have to take care." He instructed him again and again, and walked away from the temple.

"Xing'er, pack up your clothes for me." Staring at the bright sky, Leng Yue shouted thoughtfully, and the two eunuchs who stood up straight like stone statues were a little strange at her.

"! This is frame-up! The slave is willing to go to the cold palace with you. Chun Xing'er's sincere words made Leng Yue a little moved.

"Niangniang, the slave is also willing to go to the cold palace with you." Ruyi didn't know when he stood in front of her, and his expression seemed to protect her to the death.

"You are not allowed to go. The emperor just asked me to go, what are you going to do? The merits have their own opinions, don't worry, I'll be fine. Leng Yue held the holy decree that symbolized the emperor's grace in his hand and sneered a few times. Concubine, you're too poisonous! Even his own daughter couldn't bear to be hurt! No wonder she instigated the little princess to come to her side at the banquet! Wait, when I step out of the cold palace, it will be your death!

Leng Yue looked at the pale sky and said lightly: "I sympathized with her before, but I didn't expect her to do such a cruel thing!" Originally, I didn't want to occupy the emperor's favor and fulfill your happiness, but you failed my friendship with you, in this case, from today onwards, I will no longer pity anyone, and you must not come to provoke me, I am not a god, and there is not so much mercy at all. ”

At dawn, Leng Yue moved from Luoxia Palace to Leng Palace. Xing'er and Ruyi reluctantly said goodbye, and the master and servant were in tears. Leng Yue didn't cry but comforted them with a smile: "What are you crying about?" I'll be out soon! They all cried and laughed, and they said that they would serve her well when she returned to the palace! finally sent them away, and Leng Yue also fell into a quiet body, carrying her baggage and walking inside.

"Yue ......" Hearing this title, Leng Yue thought that Fang Qingzhuo was back, but when she turned around sharply, she saw that she was nine years old, and she couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

Nian Jiuling saw the disappointment in her eyes, and her heart ached: "Concubine Yue, write a letter to Fang Qingzhuo, I will find a way to help you send it out." ”

Leng Yue nodded and smiled: "I will, you can come back in two days." Nian Jiuling nodded and turned to leave, without a trace of worry on his face.

When she stepped into the gate of the cold palace, Leng Yue wanted to laugh a little, but she didn't expect that she would live in, and it was the room where Long Lan'er once lived.

There was a faint sound of footsteps, presumably someone who heard the sound of the palace door closing and walked out. Unexpectedly, it was Concubine Yan who came out of the corner, she lost a lot of weight, and the clarity in her eyes became more and more dusty.

"I'm here to accompany you!" Leng Yue said hello very politely, and smiled in her heart: What is this? The two out-of-gas concubines reached a consensus in the cold palace?

"I know about you, but the first day to seal the concubine, the next day was the first to be beaten into the cold palace." She overflowed with a nonchalant smile.

"It's true, I forgot if you didn't say it." Leng Yue thought to herself: "It's really ironic that two women who were once hostile have reached a tacit understanding in this cold palace!" ”

"This is the consequence of being favored, no one dares to harm him, but someone will definitely touch you!" She was telling the truth. "The battle between the queen and you is imperative, even without you, the battle in the harem will not stop."

Listening to her words, Leng Yue suddenly felt so stupid, she only thought of the concubine but didn't think of the queen. "Thank you! From this day forward, we are neighbors, and maybe, I can discuss her with you. "She, of course, means the Queen.

It took an afternoon to clean the house, and when everything was done, Leng Yue looked at the clean room with satisfaction, and admired his ability to survive. "How? Not bad, right? ”

"Good." Concubine Yan laughed, "I didn't expect you to clean up the room and look decent." ”

"Aren't you too?" I wiped my face and asked rhetorically.

The two actually became confidants on such occasions.
