Anyway, no matter how much trouble these women in the harem make, in the end, they will become the target of everyone's attention.

The only happy event before the New Year Festival in the palace was that she was titled, and all the palace concubines naturally rushed to toast her.

The women ate different spirits from the men, and they drank a fragrant wine blended with fruit juice from bamboo leaf wine, which was very light and fruity, and it was very strong, somewhat like a modern pre-mixed cocktail.

But even if it's such a low-alcohol blended wine, you will get drunk if you drink too much.

Everyone who came had different words on their lips, Shen Ci couldn't refuse that cup after drinking this cup, and in the end, Li Mobai saw that she was surrounded by people and poured wine and had the intention to relieve her, so he pointed at her on the face and said: "Rong Guiren is not strong enough to drink, and if you drink it again, I am afraid that you will go crazy." Pei'er, Qi'er, take your master back to the palace to sober up. ”

Secretly waiting for Shen Ci to come out of Tonghuatai, Sanfu greeted him with a smile and whispered: "Your noble little master, the emperor entrusted the servant to tell you, so that you don't forget tonight's agreement~"

Shen Ci complained secretly: [Phew! Drink too much and don't forget to think about Lucky's ass, this dog man! 】

So I don't know if it's because of anger or jealousy, on the way back to the palace, she instructed Pei'er: "Go back and tell the palace people to go to bed early today, so it's easy to catch up with the New Year's Festival, and you can relax and relax, so you don't have to keep vigil and wait." ”

*

About half an hour later, the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet is truly over.

Li Mobai 'borrowed wine to pretend to be crazy' but was caught by the Queen Mother, "If the emperor is drunk, the queen's palace has prepared a sobering soup early in the morning." Tonghuatai is not far from Fengluan Palace, and the emperor can go to the queen's palace to drink sobering soup and rest. ”

Ancestral rules, Chinese New Year's Eve, the empress and empress.

It has been a long time since he has been to the queen's palace, and the queen mother asked him to give an explanation in front of him, and Li Mobai is not too good to follow his own temperament.

I had to say: "Look, I'm drunk and confused." Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, so you should be in charge of the Phoenix Palace. ”

When the Queen Mother heard this, she smiled and bowed her head, and did not forget to glance at the queen during the period.

The queen returned to Fengluan Palace with the queen and found that there were very few palace people waiting tonight.

The queen has always attached importance to her position, and Fengluan Palace is a 'door to the city' that cannot be shaken by thunder all year round, as if there are more people who serve her in order to show her dignity.

"It's clean in your palace today."

"The palace people have worked hard for a year and served diligently, and the concubines allowed them to rest for two days." The queen said and instructed Xiangling: "Present the decanting soup prepared for the emperor in the morning, and you can also retreat and rest." ”

Xiangling bowed down after briefly meeting the queen's gaze.

Li Mobai and the queen sat opposite each other under the candlestick, and the queen pretended to be ashamed and embarrassed, and he didn't look at it at all.

He only looked at the luxurious and cold gold and emerald decorations up and down the Fengluan Palace, and asked, "I remember that this is still the decoration when the first emperor Empress Zhaorong lived, why did you never think about replacing it all these years?" ”

"Queen Zhaorong has many sons, and Xiangshi said that the blessing is also related to the feng shui of the palace. The concubine thought that this was a good fortune, and she was used to living in these and felt comfortable, so she didn't think about moving the decoration. The queen smiled lightly and peeled a milk orange and handed it to Li Mobai, "The emperor and a few princes have a good time drinking today?" ”

Li Mobai did not take the cucumber, but sat still, leaving the queen aside, showing that her behavior was quite embarrassing.

"Queen Zhaorong has many sons, eldest brothers, the eighth, the ninth, Princess Huiqing and Princess Duanhe are all from her. But the eldest brother provoked the Qinglou woman to get sick and died, and it was not dignified to go; The eighth attempted rebellion and was imprisoned in the Zongren Mansion for many years; Lao Jiu has a broken leg on the battlefield and can't work, and when I drink today, I still complain that my joints hurt every rainy day; Princess Huiqing died after only three years of marrying Fanbang; Only Princess Duanhe married as she wished, and now her life is going well. ”

Li Mobai paused for a moment, looked back at the queen, "Such a blessing, but it is also what the queen wants?" ”

The scene was embarrassing for a while, but fortunately, at this moment, Xiangling served the decanting soup to break the situation.

The queen took the opportunity to put the milk orange aside, took the decanting soup and handed it to Li Mobai, "The emperor has drunk too much wine, and he has drunk the decanting soup to wake up the bar." ”

Li Mobai took the bowl and took two sips, and said slowly: "Actually, if you think less and think less, the position of the queen and the power of the six palaces will never change hands." Can you understand what I say? ”

The queen replied in a harmonious voice: "Yes, the concubines follow the emperor's teachings." ”

Somehow, her words were soft and soft, and when she heard them in Li Mobai's ears, they aroused his strange throbbing.

He looked at the queen's spring-like eyes, and bursts of unprovoked heat spread from his chest to his whole body.

"Your Majesty, you're sweating."

The queen sat next to Li Mobai, wiped the sweat droplets on his forehead for him, and his weak and boneless palm moved dishonestly to his neckline, "If you feel hot, the concubine will change your clothes for you, right?" ”

The last trace of reason left in his mind dominated Li Mobai's actions, and at this moment his body had become limp, but he still mustered up all his strength to push out the queen's hand that had been stuffed into his clothes.

At this moment, I suddenly heard someone shouting outside Fengluan Palace, and the voice was like Qiu Xi waiting beside Concubine Xi.

"Your Majesty, the concubine has a chest tightness and a headache, I want you to go to Yaohua Palace to have a look."

The queen's face changed suddenly, and she called out of the hall: "Go and see who is making noise outside the palace and the emperor to rest, teach a lesson and send people back!" ”

Li Mobai only thought that he was drunk, and took the opportunity to slip away.

He staggered and stood up, "The concubine is not hypocritical, her palace people can come here to invite me, she must be very uncomfortable." I'm going to see what's going on, and I'll come back to you later. ”

"The emperor~~~" The queen pulled Li Mobai's sleeve and didn't let him go, "Concubine Xi is sick and has the imperial doctor to take care of her, even if the emperor goes, what's the use?" ”

However, Li Mobai was already hot and unbearable at this time, and he no longer had the strength to talk nonsense with her.

He insisted on leaving, but the queen couldn't stop him.

Seeing him go out of the door of the dormitory, Xiangling, who didn't know why, hurriedly ran in and asked the queen what happened.

"Niangniang, the emperor is just leaving?" She glanced at the decanting soup that had already been drunk, and sighed, "Ah! Lord Zhu said that the effect of this medicine is violent, even if it is mixed with water, even if it is just a small sip, it will work immediately, if the emperor goes to Concubine Xi, won't Niangniang's hard work be wasted to make a wedding dress for others? ”

"Do you know why don't you go and chase the emperor back!?" The queen said angrily: "The royal car outside the door was sent by the palace early in the morning, and the emperor can't go far!" ”

"Queen Mother! The queen is not good! Lai Xi shouted, stumbled in and knelt in front of the queen, "The people in the palace of Concubine Xi were sent to the sedan chair, and as soon as the emperor came out of our palace gate, he was invited to the sedan chair ......by Qiu Xi as soon as he came out of our palace gate."

"Presumptuous! Monkey business! The queen was shocked and angry, her facial expression became very distorted, and she tried her best to scream: "Go and stop the sedan chariot for the palace!" No matter what, I have to invite the emperor back today! Just go!! ”
