Two hundred and eighty bitters
The others sitting in the hall stopped cups and chopsticks, and their gazes with unknown gazes turned to the seat of the imperial concubine. (Pin#Shu¥.com)!
This trick of watching tiger fighting across the mountains is the favorite among the people in the palace. Chen Jieyu always gave people the impression that she was irritable and brainless. Last year, she suffered a big loss because the imperial concubine suddenly fainted at the New Year banquet. Although it was found out that it had nothing to do with her, she was also jailed for a whole month and she fell out of favor since then.
Speaking of which, why doesn’t Chen Jieyu have any memory? Last year, it was unlucky, but this year it actually jumped up again. This is what the saying goes, remember to eat but not to beat?
Some people also thought that Chen Jieyu might have been in love with the scene. Looking at the lively scene this year, I remembered the incident that was blamed by the emperor for no reason last year, so I became angry and became angry and became brave, so I went to trouble the imperial concubine. Anyway, it was New Year's Eve, and the imperial concubine could not tear her face off and let her drag her out, right? Then the imperial concubine was disgraced and her prestige disappeared.
Chen Jieyu drank the second cup, lit up the empty cup for everyone to show, and looked at Xie Ning with a smile: "Don't the concubine even give her face?"
Now Xie Ning is not right to drink, nor is he not right to drink. If the others present come out to smooth things out and persuade a few words, the situation will not be like this. But the others seemed to have made an appointment, and no one made a statement.
Xie Ning didn't have to look at the people around him, and he knew that they were all pretending to be stupid now.
Only now did she realize more deeply that her popularity is so bad.
Her favor will naturally arouse jealousy and anger from others.
Cao Shunrong hesitated for a moment, finally got up and approached the seat, holding a hand of Concubine Gao Jie's arm: "Concubine Chen Jie was afraid she had drunk a few more glasses, so follow me to walk outside the hall and let go and dissipate the alcohol."
As soon as she stood out, the eyes of the people in the palace inevitably fell on her again, and many of them looked at her with contempt.
Isn't it just to stand up at this time, just to sell it in front of the imperial concubine? It seems that Cao Shunrong has made up his mind to curry favor with the imperial concubine? When Shunrong was still there, wasn't Cao Shunrong quite a talented and arrogant woman? Why is Shunrong now being overtaken by the imperial concubine? She immediately becomes so conscious of the current affairs? I am afraid that she will not be promoted this time, and she is afraid that she will die in her youth and want to find a backer for herself?
If Chen Jieyu took the opportunity to go out, Xie Ning would not really hate her. She could see that Chen Jieyu's eyes were surprisingly bright, her cheeks were a little flushed, and she looked a little drunk. She had just started the meal, and I don't know how she was trying to make herself like this?
But Chen Jieyu did not accept Cao Shunrong's affection, but instead shook her hand without hesitation: "Who said I was drunk? I didn't drink too much!"
She turned her head, raised her chin, and looked at Xie Ning with a squinted look, and her posture made her point clear.
She is just looking for trouble, so what can Xie Ning do to her?
Xie Ning didn't say anything, but Qinghe couldn't help it. She signaled Lu Shanggong, the two Shanggongs sent by the emperor who served, to quickly get Chen Jieyu out.
But there is another person who is like Xie Ning who is looked at by such a gaze.
Princess Yuyao suddenly stood up next to Xie Ning.
She had no appetite for eating the banquet, and Xie Ning didn't plan to let her stay here for a long time. Princess Yuyao was still young after all, and she went to bed early every night. Xie Ning originally thought that in another quarter of an hour, someone would send her back to the palace first.
Princess Yuyao suddenly stood up, which made Concubine Chen stunned.
"What's your name?"
Chen Jieyu was stunned for a moment. Princess Yuyao's unceremonious question made her wake up. She had a good alcohol tolerance, but now she seemed to have overdose, and her head was a little dizzy. It was Cao Shunrong who pushed her behind without any trace, so she said fluently: "Go back to the princess, I am Jieyu Chen."
Princess Yuyao was short, but she stood in front of the table and her aura covered up Chen and Cao Cairen.
Princess Yuyao pointed to the glass of wine she poured for Xie Ning just now and said, "You drank it."
Concubine Chen blinked and said nothing.
"Don't you like drinking? Then I'll give you this glass of wine, drink it."
Qinghe finally came to her senses and shouted to the princess a few times in her heart!
Chen Jieyu was rude, Shen Fei and the others stood by and watched, Qing He and the others were slaves. After thinking about it, they never expected that Princess Yuyao would stand up.
"I……"
Chen Jieyu never expected that Princess Yuyao would stand up, and she was so rude to her and did not leave any face for her.
Cao Shunrong was also stunned.
But she knew even more that the situation had completely reversed.
Chen Jieyu attacked the concubine. The concubine was weak when she didn't care about it, and she became a weak person. She was not pleased with both sides. But the princess said something different. To put it bluntly, what are these concubines? They are just maids and concubines. The princess is the precious daughter of the emperor, with golden branches, jade leaves, dragons, sons, and grandsons. Her identity is naturally nobler than them. Besides, the princess is a child and they are adults. Today, this matter is out of the blue. Isn't it that it will not fall into the princess, or are they ignorant and rude?
At present, Chen Jieyu is not good at drinking this wine, nor is it good at not drinking it.
If she dares to turn her head and leave, let alone the emperor has to settle the score later, even the imperial concubine cannot spare her now, and she cannot lose the princess' face. If she drinks, Chen Jieyu will be very embarrassed today. You can imagine that no one will take her seriously from now on, and anyone can ridicule her, and she is worse than a dog from a frenzy.
But Cao Shunrong didn't sympathize with her at all.
Who can blame this? I can only blame Chen Jieyu herself, she asked for it. She just gritted the bullet and advised her, it would be great if she wanted to go out. With a moment of thought, the princess became anxious. Now she can't afford to take it.
Concubine Shen wiped the corners of her lips with a veil: "Concubine Chen is really drunk as soon as the banquet started. Not only was she rude in front of the imperial concubine, she even collided with the princess. Where did the people who served? Why don't you help her away quickly?"
Concubine Jin sneered in her heart.
Concubine Shen remembered to come forward and rescue the situation? What did you do just now? Everyone had the same idea and no one could hide it from anyone. Just now, I watched Concubine Chen attacking Concubine and wait to watch the show. Now that the princess has stepped forward, she wants to pretend to be a good person in front of the princess again?
Concubine Jin knew that Concubine Shen had always wanted to raise Princess Yuyao, but the emperor refused to agree to her.
If she also raised a princess, or the healthy and smart Princess Yuyao, wouldn’t she be suppressed by her?
This is a ready-made cheap one, so she can't pick it up.
Concubine Jin also laughed: "No, I think the princess is right. Although our eldest princess is not old, it is not bad at all. Chen Jieyu, the princess is rewarding you with wine, didn't you hear it?"
Concubine Gao Jie said on the side: "That's right. Concubine Chen, don't make the princess unhappy. Come and go to the table after drinking wine."
Originally, the imperial concubine or Chen Jieyu Concubine was happy, but she was disliked by the unlucky concubine. Since Shen Fei wanted to rescue Chen Jieyu Concubine, then Gao Jieyu had to let Chen Jieyu drink this glass of bitter wine by herself today.
In her opinion, Concubine Chen also went to the banquet at Yanfu Palace last time, and the time of the meeting was pretty good. When Concubine Shen was ridiculed by Concubine Shen, Concubine Chen did not express any expression. Maybe she had already been interested in Concubine Shen and became a person on her side. Concubine Gao also hated Concubine Gui, but she hated Concubine Shen even more.
You can see now that although Xie Ning has no good popularity, Chen Jieyu has offended all the people who can offend with her bad temper. At this moment, even Cao Shunrong, who was standing beside her, would not help her.
Princess Yuyao frowned: "Do you drink it? Aren't you very happy to drink the two glasses just now?"
The princess’s words may not have any other meaning, but others will understand it as soon as they hear it. If she doesn’t drink this wine, it means she will not give face to the princess. The emperor will definitely not be able to forgive her. It would be okay if she offended the imperial concubine alone, but if she offended the princess, she will definitely guarantee that she will have no room for reversal in the future.
Chen Jieyu's mind was a little drowsy, and she felt her hands and feet became a little heavy.
She glanced at the people around her.
Those people looked at her coldly.
Cao Shunrong was afraid that the New Year banquet would be completely ruined. He didn't want to stop it at that time, so he quickly urged her: "Concubine Chen, just drink it quickly."
Chen Jieyu's face looked very bad and she brought the glass of wine.
Princess Yuyao sat down again, next to Xie Ning.
Qinghe looked at Chen Jieyu's unlucky look and felt completely relieved.
It is difficult for her master to deal with her, but a princess has made a fortune now. No wonder everyone wants children. She also said that her daughter is good, and she is the mother-in-law's close-fitting little cotton jacket. The master really hasn't raised the princess in vain. These days, the princess doesn't talk much, but now she can make a fortune for her master. Who doesn't like such a child?
From the first time when Chen Jieyu Concubine Chen used the camellia to humiliate Xie Ning in Wangyun Pavilion, Qinghe hated her in her heart. Even though Chen Jieyu confirmed that she was not guilty after being confined by the emperor last year, Qinghe felt that she still looked disgusting.
But I finally got all this anger back today. I felt so happy that I was even happier than eating a large piece of iced watermelon in the dog days.
Chen Jieyu drank bitter wine from her own brew, and wanted the imperial concubine to make a fool of herself, but in the end she made a fool of herself.
Concubine Gao looked at Concubine Chen with interest and raised her glass stiffly, raised the glass of wine to the end, and glanced at Concubine Shen very proudly.
However, Concubine Shen closed her eyes and turned her head slightly, and the expression on her face looked complicated and unspeakable at this moment.
It seems that Chen Jieyu may be really hers, so she is so unbearable to see her now?
Don't care about her.
Concubine Gao has figured it out now.
The imperial concubine is annoying, but the imperial concubine's temper still seems to be as others say, not a tough guy. But Shen Fei is different. Her speed of turning against others is simply jaw-dropping.
If Concubine Gao is not as good as her, she should not think of mercy and favor from the emperor. If she wants to avoid being angry with Concubine Shen in the future, she will have to find a supporter for herself.
Concubine Jin?
Concubine Gao shook her head secretly. She couldn't do it.
Concubine Jin is a petty concubine, and she may not be a rival to Concubine Shen.
Thinking of this, it seems that it is not unbearable to defect to the imperial concubine.
