Chapter 128 is even more good at acting
Just as the third princess said the words of the competition, suddenly everyone heard the eunuch's loud singing and shouting at the door.
"Rui Concubine Niangniang has arrived!"
With this singing, everyone moved their eyes to the door, and after a while, they saw a pink blue figure, holding the hand of the palace maid with his stomach up, and entered the house.
"The concubine has seen the queen's mother."
Rui Concubine was supported by the palace maid, and made a symbolic shallow salute, which was quite perfunctory.
And Fang Yu had already observed that from the moment Rui Concubine entered the house, Empress Li's face had already become gloomy.
Sure enough, at this time, Queen Li followed and reprimanded.
"Rui Concubine, you are pregnant and about to give birth, don't stay in your own residence, what do you do when you come out, this mountain road is difficult to walk, no better than the palace, in case you fall and hurt the emperor's heir in the abdomen, how can you explain to the emperor."
"Thank you for the queen's concern, the concubine went out, it was because the imperial doctor said that the concubine was the first child, and she had to move around more, so that she could give birth at that time."
In the face of Empress Li's reprimand, Rui Concubine did not panic at all, and replied slowly with a smile.
"The emperor felt sorry for his concubines, so he deliberately found the eunuchs with the best foot strength in this villa to carry a soft sedan chair for the concubines, but it was very stable, and the mother didn't have to worry about it."
When she said this, Rui Concubine naturally had a bit of a show off in it, and only darkened Queen Li's face a little more.
However, Rui Concubine didn't care about this, and instead swept around, and continued.
"Yo, Niangniang is really lively here today, it seems that the concubine has come to the right place, I heard that Niangniang has good tea here, and a banquet is being held, and the concubine is uninvited, Niangniang won't be angry, right?"
"How can it be, come here, give a seat to Rui Concubine."
Although she was very reluctant in her heart, Queen Li still didn't drive people away.
At present, the holy concubine Rui is thick, and she is pregnant and about to give birth, she can't be scolded, in case her belly has three long and two short, people are in her own place, Queen Li can't eat and walk around.
Everyone silently watched the two of them fight in the ring, but they didn't make a sound.
However, there are also braver ones, such as Fang Pei.
Seeing that her mother-in-law was unhappy, she thought that she had been disgusted by Queen Li for a while, but now that Queen Li's attitude towards her had improved, she had to take the opportunity to brush up her good feelings, so she had her head up at this moment.
"Rui Concubine Niangniang is pregnant, it is not suitable to drink tea, this banquet is a tea banquet, Rui Concubine Niangniang is not suitable to participate, it should be more for the sake of the emperor's heir."
When she spoke, Rui Concubine was still standing in the center of the hall, and before she was seated, she followed the prestige, her eyes swept over the area where Fang Pei was, and then said coldly.
"Who is talking to this palace, there are no rules, and I don't know how to get up and salute first, why is this palace not an elder?"
Those present today are Emperor Chengjing's nephews, daughters-in-law and daughters-in-law, and Rui Concubine is already the mother of the lord of the first palace, of course, her seniority and status are above this group of people.
As soon as she said this, Fang Pei's face stiffened slightly.
But at this moment, he could only stand up and bow in a proper manner.
"Say hello to Concubine Rui."
"Are you the daughter of the Fang family?" Rui Concubine glanced her up and down, and there seemed to be some disbelief in her tone.
Then he turned his head and looked at Fang Yu again, then smacked his lips slightly, said nothing, and turned to sit down.
But such a move is easy to think about.
Therefore, Fang Pei's face turned red in an instant, and after sitting down, he glared at Fang Yu on the other side.
Fang Yu didn't pay attention to her actions at all, and the moment his eyes met her, his lips hooked up with a sarcastic arc.
This made Fang Pei even more explosive.
But this is not her territory, she can go wild casually, and she has to endure it if she is angry.
And Queen Li, who was sitting at the top, took this scene in her eyes, and she didn't like Fang Pei a little more in her heart, and she only felt that she was stupid.
But no matter how stupid she is, she is also her daughter-in-law, and she is her own person, so she has to spearhead the outside world.
So at this moment, he made a gentle appearance and said to Rui Concubine.
"You are indeed not suitable to drink tea when you are pregnant, although this child is straighter, but it is also a piece of filial piety, this palace ordered someone to prepare some pastries and milk that you can eat."
"Thank you for your trouble." Rui Concubine changed her attitude towards Fang Pei just now, and smiled at Queen Li, "The concubine is also having fun, although she can't drink tea, she can satisfy her cravings by smelling the fragrance of tea." ”
It seems that the two are very harmonious and close.
Fang Yu couldn't help but sigh, the ladies in this palace are even better than them.
And the two women here were playing, and the third princess on the side spoke again.
"The queen mother, the son just said that the tea guess the name, at this time Rui's mother came and asked her to watch us play, can't participate together, it's boring, the son has thought of a new way to have fun, the queen mother wants to listen?"
When she spoke, she smiled and groaned, completely harmless.
But Fang Yu's intuition told her that these three princesses were not simple, and she was afraid that she would hold back some calculations.
Sure enough, after getting the permission of Queen Li, the third princess said with a smile.
"Erchen thinks about all the sisters-in-law, the queen mother and Rui's mother and concubines, all of whom are talented and good-looking, why don't we come and show off our talents, draw lots, and do what we catch, okay?"
"That's good." Empress Li bowed her head and looked at Rui Concubine symbolically, "What does Rui Concubine think?" ”
"The mother and the princess both think it's good, and the concubine naturally has no opinion." Rui Concubine smiled.
In this way, even if the rules are set, after all, Fang Yu and the others are not qualified to express their opinions.
The third princess personally went to prepare the things for drawing lots.
After about a stick of incense, he came back.
"Queen Mother, the sons are already ready, why don't you start with the Queen Mother?" The third princess said with a smile.
Empress Li understands her daughter, so she naturally has no opinion.
Sure enough, the first one to draw for Queen Li was to write a poem in the name of tea.
This is naturally no problem for Queen Li, who is full of poetry and books, and the second is Rui Concubine, and the third princess drew a group of flower arrangements with the theme of Zen.
Rui Concubine was also easily done.
According to the order of the eldest and youngest, they are followed by the ladies of the East Palace, and Concubine Yang is the first to bear the brunt.
And this time, when the third princess read out the contents of the note, Concubine Yang actually drew a dance.
Suddenly, Concubine Yang's face was not very good-looking, she smiled awkwardly, and said to Queen Li.
"Aunt Huang, look at how this is good, although Erchen is from Jiangmen and knows some martial arts, but this martial arts is not the other dance, this dance, Erchen really can't."
"It's a coincidence, why don't you smoke another one?"
As Queen Li spoke, her eyes glanced at the third princess, obviously waiting for the third princess to make a move.
And the third princess was really prepared, and immediately picked up the conversation.
"It's because I was negligent, I didn't prepare everything, I didn't expect what Concubine Yang is good at, but it's rare to get together today, and no one in our family is allowed to leak out, so we all have to show it."
As he spoke, he showed a somewhat thoughtful expression on his face, and then suddenly clapped his hands and said with a smile.
"I often hear people say that people who practice martial arts can dance swords, both rigid and soft, and they are also extremely beautiful, I don't know if Concubine Yang can do it?"
