Chapter 1 The golden autumn chrysanthemum feast hides its edge
|i^|i^
Autumn is passing and winter is coming. All things are flourishing. In the inner garden of the palace, under the careful care of the gardeners, the flowers are blooming in full swing, showing off the splendor of autumn. Xue Xichen strolls in the imperial garden, admiring the beautiful and fragrant flowers. Gently pinch the petals with your fingertips and smell the fragrance of the flowers.
"The Queen."
Xue Xichen looked back and looked at the little eunuch behind her. The little eunuch said respectfully: "Queen, Your Majesty, please go to the Jade Cui Garden for a banquet."
"I understand. Lead the way."
Xue Xichen waved her hand and followed the young eunuch to the Jade Cui Garden.
Jade Cuiyuan is Baidieyu's palace. When Xue Xichen arrived at Jade Cuiyuan, there were bursts of laughter and joy in the garden. She heard Baidieyu say: "The sky is bright and clear today. It is the golden time in the garden. The chrysanthemums are fragrant. I specially held a banquet in the garden. I invited the emperor, sister Qiu Luo and all the adults to attend."
She heard Feng Biqing's gentle voice. "Thank you, Concubine Hui, for your kindness. Your Majesty is pregnant now. Please pay more attention to your health."
She heard Leng Qiuluo say half truthfully: "What the Sixth Prince said is. Sister Dieyu, you have to worry about your body size now. You must pay attention to your health. If someone accidentally miscarries, it will not be good." ah."
She heard Leng Junyi scold lightly. "Qiu Luo. Stop talking nonsense."
"The Queen has arrived."
The little eunuch's announcement instantly broke the lively atmosphere in the garden. Xue Xichen strolled in. Her eyes swept over everyone in the garden one by one. Her expression was unruly. She moved towards the empty seat beside Feng Qingge. go.
Everyone stood up in a hurry to salute. "Kowtow to the Queen."
"I, my concubine, see you, Your Majesty."
After Xue Xichen greeted Feng Qingge, Feng Qingge raised her hand to signal everyone to sit down. He looked indifferent and seemed not to care about Xue Xichen's arrival. Xue Xichen had long been used to Feng Qingge's treatment of her over the past few months. Her attitude didn't seem to matter at all. As soon as she sat down, a palace maid came over to pour her tea.
"Sister Queen, you are late."
Bai Dieyu smiled slightly reproachfully, caressing her round belly. She looked at Xue Xichen with a proud look on her face, her eyes full of provocation.
Xue Xichen pouted, not caring about Bai Dieyu's naivety. It should be said that after knowing that the father of this child was actually Feng Biqing, she had no other feelings for Bai Dieyu except contempt and sympathy.
However, since people have come to the door with provocation, it is not Xue Xichen's style to not fight back. Xue Xichen replied leisurely: "Sister Dieyu, you invited the emperor and all the adults here in the winter. Could it be just to see you?" Big belly."
Bai Dieyu's face instantly turned livid. She clenched her fists tightly and her eyes were on fire.
Bai Biluo was afraid that her sister would have a bad temper and might conflict with Xue Xichen. She quickly replied: "The Queen has not arrived yet. How can I dare to hold the banquet first?"
"Hey, General Bai, your words are really embarrassing for me. Your Majesty, the Emperor, I am late. I am already very frightened. When General Bai said this, he is blaming me for being a pampered child. Even the Emperor is not Do you take it seriously?"
"This..." Bai Biluo was speechless and quickly explained. "I made a mistake. I never meant it. Please forgive me, the Queen."
Originally, she was ridiculed by Xue Xichen. Bai Dieyu was already dissatisfied. Now she saw her brother being ridiculed by Xue Xichen. She was filled with anger. Bai Dieyu said angrily: "Xue Mei Tong, don't think that you are great just because you are a queen." .Don’t forget your own identity. A lowly brothel girl. Why should you be on an equal footing with us?"
Bai Biluo's expression suddenly changed. She shouted sternly: "Dieyu, don't talk nonsense."
If it were Wang Yingjun from the past, she would have been furious when she heard this sentence. But she, Xue Xichen, was not Wang Yingjun. She sneered at Bai Dieyu's extremely childish provocation. "What does Hui Fei mean? Could it be that she was sarcastic about Tangtang Yi?"
The mother of the country is not as good as a brothel girl?"
"No. My little sister has absolutely no such intention."
Bai Biluo quickly explained to Bai Dieyu. He stopped Bai Dieyu who wanted to argue and said respectfully to Xue Xichen: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. My little sister spoke uncontrollably and bumped into the Queen. Please forgive her."
A crime of respect.”
Xue Xichen folded her hands around her chest, raised her eyebrows, and looked arrogant. "General Bai, you are serious. Mei Tong doesn't dare. General Bai, you have a high position of authority. Concubine Hui is about to give birth to a prince again. And Xue Mei is about to give birth to a prince."
Tong is nothing more than an idle villain with no status. How dare you blame General Bai and Concubine Hui?"
Bai Biluo knelt down in fear. "I don't dare."
Feng Qingge glanced at Xue Xichen indifferently. "That's enough. Tongtong. Don't make any more trouble."
Xue Xichen curled her lips. Seeing Bai Dieyu's angry and round eyes, she felt relieved. She finally entered the palace as Wang Yingjun, and was locked in the palace all day doing nothing. She was like a wandering spirit.
She had long been bored. Xue Xichen thought more than once that her refusal to return to the palace with Feng Qingge was definitely the wisest choice.
Life is so boring. All I can do is find someone to talk to.
Don't blame her for being picky. Who told her to dislike Bai Biluo and Bai Dieyu?
Mu Qingfei smiled and slowly shook the paper fan in his hand. "Once you leave the palace, the Queen becomes more sharp-tongued."
Don't blame Mu Qingfei for being careless. Although his appearance is the same and his voice is the same, no matter how he talks or behaves, he is no longer like the original Xuemei Tong. His seemingly perverse words are not offensive at all; look.
He seems to have a proud temper, but it is not annoying. On the contrary, it makes people feel very friendly. He is very much like Xue Xichen back then...
He is proud, willful and unruly. He behaves erratically and fiercely. He never acts according to common sense. Although he often causes headaches, he is not annoying.
Xue Xichen curled her lips and said sarcastically: "Mu Xiang, what do you mean by this? Could it be that I was mute before?"
"Don't dare. Don't dare."
Look, even his unwillingness to lose a word is very similar to Xue Xichen's.
Is it really possible for a person to change so much in a short period of time?
Mu Qingfei shook the paper fan lightly and asked himself silently.
Is this snow-enchanted pupil really that snow-enchanted pupil?
Xiao Liuyue opened her mouth to break the tense atmosphere among everyone. He smiled and said: "Today's banquet coincides with the golden chrysanthemums blooming in the garden. Why don't we use chrysanthemum as the theme and write a poem to promote elegance."
"OK."
His proposal was unanimously approved by everyone.
Bai Dieyu would never let go of the opportunity to humiliate Xue Xichen. In her eyes, Xue Xichen was a coquettish fox who only relied on beauty to seduce men. She wanted to make Xue Xichen public.
Make a fool of yourself.
Bai Dieyu deliberately lowered her voice and said softly: "Queen, you are the head of the Sixth Palace. Why don't you take the lead?"
Provoke her.
Xue Xichen curled her lips. She didn't even bother with Bai Dieyu's childish provocation. Who is she, Xue Xichen? How could such a trivial matter faze her? She said casually: "When autumn comes on September 8th, I will bloom and then all the flowers will bloom."
Kill. The towering incense array penetrates Kyoto. The whole city is covered with golden armor."
