61. Chapter 61 Provocation [2]
"yes!"
Cui'er, whose hair was messy after being sprayed, stood up, lowered her head respectfully, jogged a few steps and walked a little in front of Xiyan's left to lead the way for her. Her hands hanging on both sides clenched her fists hard, her nails digging into her flesh.
Here, she wants herself to remember this pain and the insult she suffered today.
Fenglai Pavilion was quite far away from Cixi Palace. It was so far that Xiyan walked for nearly two-quarters of an hour to get there. This was half an hour. She even secretly wondered if Cui'er was out for revenge and deliberately allowed her to travel more. If
She knew that Cui Er had to take a shortcut that few people took in order to bring her to Cixi Palace early to watch her make a fool of herself. She would probably be grateful to Cui Er for her thoughtfulness. She didn't like walking the most!
When they reached Cixi Hall, Xiyan began to wonder if the snacks she was going to treat her should be eaten by Concubine Leng herself?
Walking into the front hall of the main hall, I saw Mrs. Liu sitting on the side. The table was full of untouched snacks that looked very appetizing. I began to admire her for keeping the delicious food for so long.
If you were tempted, if it were you, I would probably have only empty plates on the table now, not even a scrap left!
Walking towards Concubine Liu, she blessed her body with a smile, and said gently and obediently, "Xiyan has met the concubine, please say hello to the concubine! Why does the concubine need to ask someone to greet Xiyan? She just needs to say that Cixi Palace is good."
Naturally, I will come over right away to have a taste..."
"The queen is really good at talking, she has such a sweet mouth..." Concubine Liu was also very kind and chatting with Xi Yan about her daily life. She raised her hand and was about to touch her head like an elder, but she made a tiny shake of her head.
She avoided it, and while avoiding her, she happened to notice that Cui'er behind her lowered her head and said nothing, and the hair on her forehead seemed to be... dripping with water?
Seeing that her eyes were starting to turn cold, Xi Yan smiled sweetly at her, "Your Majesty, your slave just bumped into me, so Xi Yan went out of bounds and punished her on my behalf. Your Majesty, you won't blame me!"
Concubine Liu still looked kind and said calmly, "What did the queen say? The palace people are ignorant and bumped into the queen. The queen should be punished. How could the Ai family be in trouble because she is the person next to me?"
What about blaming the queen?"
Xiyan nodded, "Well, it's fine if the concubines don't blame them. You really shouldn't pamper them too much. Some slaves think they are their masters when they are pampered..."
Concubine Liu interrupted her, she was afraid that she couldn't bear to turn over the table if she continued, "I have always heard Ru Yue talk about how delicious the food outside the palace is, and today I specially selected some snacks for the Ai family to bring to the palace. The Ai family thought that the queen had been living there for a long time since she was a child.
In the palace, people must rarely eat snacks on the street. Someone specially invited the queen to come. The maid was slow and it took some time to invite the queen. Come and sit down and have a taste. Some things will not taste good if they are cold.
Got it!"
"What the concubine said is that if Xi Yan is so respectful, it would be better to obey her orders!"
She walked to the other side and sat down, looking at the steaming food and pouting. She was really embarrassed to say that it was cold, but the food was first, so if you don't eat it, you won't eat it for free!
After eating half full, Xi Yan put down the tableware, took the silk scarf handed to her by the eye-catching palace maid, and wiped her lips elegantly.
Concubine Liu across from her put down the tableware when she saw that she didn't want to eat, took the silk towel and wiped her mouth, then ordered people to remove the snacks and clear the table.
The palace attendant was busy and unhurriedly organizing the work. When she saw that it was almost done, she ordered people to prepare tables and chairs under a big tree in the yard. After a while, a palace attendant came to report that they had been prepared. It must have been the right thing to say.
