Yun Xiyao's begonia red palace dress was almost bright red, her face was condensed, her chin was high, and her back was straight, and she walked in slowly. Behind her were Aunt Xu and two little palace maids.
When he reached the imperial steps, he bowed gracefully and said, "I see you, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Queen."
When the words "Empress" were mentioned, everyone could faintly hear a bit of gnashing of teeth.
Dongfang Chen snorted lightly, "Shu Fei, you are late."
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I have been feeling unwell these past few days. I originally wanted to ask for leave from the Emperor. However, I later thought that today is a day of great joy for my cousin, so I decided to hold on and come to congratulate her." Yun said.
Xiyao is good at judo.
Dongfang Chen's eyes flashed slightly, and then he said in a deep voice: "You should call her the queen, not your cousin."
After a country, even the biological parents dare not call their daughter in front of others. They have to respectfully call the queen empress and kneel down to salute. A mere cousin has no right to call the queen of a country her cousin.
Yun Xiyao's kneeling body seemed to shake a little, and her voice was trembling: "Yes, I was negligent for a moment. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
"Get on your back." Dongfang Chen's voice was cold, without any warmth, "Go and sit down in your seat."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yun Xiyao stood up, and then her body shook violently. Seeing this, the palace maids on the side quickly exclaimed "Empress" and held her on the left and right.
On the throne, Dongfang Chen watched all this quietly, with deep eyes, not knowing what he was thinking. Yu Wenjin, on the other hand, had a look of worry on his face and asked softly: "Is Concubine Shu okay?"
Yun Xiyao's already pale face turned even paler after hearing this. After a moment of silence, she said: "...Thank you, Queen, for your concern. It's okay."
After saying that, the two palace maids helped Yun Xiyao sit next to Concubine Dong Xian.
After a small interlude, An Fuhai once again announced the banquet. Beautiful maids lined up one by one and served delicious food to each long table.
Yun Jingchu looked away from Yun Xiyao, lowered his eyes, and hid the coldness in his eyes.
Yun Xiyao, you must hold on and taste the feeling of being betrayed by your husband and sister at the same time. I also tasted that heart-breaking feeling back then, and now it's you who can taste it.
The banquet continues.
In the center of the hall, a dancer in tulle was singing and dancing. The princes, ministers, and concubines were admiring the performance while turning their heads to talk to the people on the left and right, looking very happy.
Wang Yuyan, who had a big belly, was sitting among the concubines, with a faint smile on her face, and no hint of happiness or anger in her heart.
Yun Jingchu had already eaten half full and was chatting with her mother. While asking her about her life in the palace during this period, Zhu told her to be careful and not to be reckless.
Suddenly, I heard Ali exclaim from the opposite direction near the throne: "Empress Shu, what's wrong with you? Empress Shu..."
Yun Jingchu followed the crowd and looked up, and saw that Yun Xiyao's face was pale, with a little black in it, and she was spitting out blood...
"Your Majesty, call the doctor quickly. Your Majesty is poisoned." Nanny Xue looked anxiously at Dongfang Chen on the throne.
Dongfang Chen's eyes flashed slightly, and he was silent for a moment before speaking loudly: "Pass the imperial doctor!"
