I am cultivating myself in the palace

Chapter 79 Shu's Toast

The banquet reached the middle game, and the wine was hot.

While Qingyan was enjoying herself feeding cats and flirting with sisters here, Shu's heart was so unbalanced that it was about to explode beside the queen mother.

She really couldn't calm down. Originally, at the palace banquet, except for Feng Yi, the Major General of the Black Banner Army, she was the most proud of the spring breeze. Sitting at the top, what a honor it is, you must know that she is also with the Queen Mother, but Emperor Yin's favorite Princess Fengyang, that almost indirectly shows that she is in the same position as Fengyang in the Queen Mother's heart !The envious eyes of all the ministers and women's family members came from all directions, which made Shu enjoy it quite a bit, but this enjoyment soon disappeared with the flower knot incident provoked by Concubine Rong.Shu Shi never imagined that Yue Qingyan, who had been reduced to a laughing stock, would rely on his eloquent teeth.Not only did he successfully reverse the disadvantage, but he also won the favor of the ministers and women. Now, everyone's eyes are on Yue Qingyan, and they are discussing how Princess Yan is not afraid in the face of danger, and how to speak righteously.No matter how majestic and majestic, people often go to toast Yue Qingyan!Who still remembers her, the newly promoted side concubine of King Yan?

Thinking of this, Shu couldn't help resenting Concubine Rong a little. If she hadn't made such a move, she would still be the focus of everyone's attention!

What made Shu's sour water flood even more was Yan Wang Mu Zheng's attitude.From the beginning to the end, the man never looked directly at him, but kept staring at Yue Qingyan. The ambiguous interaction between the two made Shu's eyes burst into flames.She was not feeling well, and her face was naturally a little gloomy. The Queen Mother saw it and said with concern: "Shu girl, are you feeling unwell?"

Shocked in Shu's heart, she quickly shook her head, collected her thoughts, and put on a gentle smile on her face: "Go back to the Queen Mother, Hua Xiu is fine."

In front of the Empress Dowager, she was the dignified, filial and virtuous concubine of the King of Yan, who could be called a model daughter-in-law. Such things as resentment and resentment must not be seen by the Empress Dowager.

The queen mother did not doubt it: "I think you are absent-minded, if you feel uncomfortable, you can tell the queen mother, don't hold on."

Empress Dowager Wei likes Shu Huaxiu, and treats her closer in words. She has not formally accepted her, but she already treats Shu as her daughter-in-law and calls herself Queen Mother.Compared with her attitude of raising eyebrows and jumping eyes when she first met Yue Qingyan, the difference between closeness and intimacy should not be too obvious.

Shu Shi could naturally sense the empress dowager's discriminating treatment, so she changed her mind and said softly: "Hua Xiu is just recalling the awe-inspiring demeanor of the princess just now, and I feel very admirable."

Sure enough, the queen mother turned cold when she heard it, and snorted disdainfully: "What is there to admire, like a lunatic!" After speaking, she did not forget to ask Shu: "Shu girl, you don't want to learn from her. How decent is she?" The queen mother said, and cast a dissatisfied glance at Yue Qingyan, her highness, and seeing that woman whispering to the maid beside her, her face beaming with excitement, she became even more disgusted, and felt that Yue Qingyan was a xiaomen after all. Those who came out of Xiaohu did not have the dignity and majesty that a princess should have.

Although Shu said yes, but looking at the Empress Dowager's face, she cautiously added: "However, Huaxiu sees that Wang Ye seems to like a hot-tempered woman like Wang Concubine..."

"Nonsense!" The Empress Dowager raised her eyebrows: "This kind of rough and slutty woman. Zheng'er won't like it!"

That being said, when the Queen Mother thought of Mu Zheng's attitude just now, her heart beat a little again, but she felt that she still knew this adopted son very well, so she comforted Shu: "Shu girl, don't worry. Zheng'er likes you like this No one would like a gentle and virtuous woman like Yue Qingyan."

"Huaxiu doesn't dare to extravagantly ask for the prince's favor, she just wants to serve the prince with all her heart and do her part as a side concubine." Shu Shi smiled shyly, her blushing cheeks were endearing.

The empress dowager was very happy, and she praised Shu's good boy, the more she liked it, the more she liked it, and she said that she liked Shu's presidency of Zhongfu - in fact, according to what the empress dowager and Emperor Yin had discussed in advance, they had to wait After the Shu family formally married into Prince Yan's mansion, they will announce this matter.It's just that the queen mother was thinking about the moth that Concubine Rong accidentally made just now.Let her lose some value in front of Shu Shi, and just took this opportunity to regain her face, and Shu Shi's seemingly inadvertent words gave the Queen Mother a feeling of Shu Shi being gentle and weak, and Yue Qingyan domineering and arrogant. Worried that Shu Shi, who had nothing to scratch her head, would be bullied by Yue Qingyan, so she gave her a chance in advance to lay the groundwork.Moreover, the Empress Dowager was very skillful in her bottom line, she was the one who asked Emperor Yin to let Shu Shi host the Zhongfu, but at this moment she just said that it was Mu Zheng who was satisfied with Shu Shi.Let her host Zhongfei.As soon as these words came out, Shu Shi was ecstatic: "My lord really likes Huaxiu?"

"That's natural." The queen mother lied without blinking her eyes: "He even told Aijia that he likes you very much!"

Shu Shi was really happy, the previous gloom was swept away, and her beautiful eyes fell on Mu Zheng, seeing him drinking alone.So he raised his glass and stood up on his own initiative, walked in front of Mu Zheng and Qingyan, and offered the wine glass to Mu Zheng: "The little girl thanked the lord for saving her life. To be favored by the lord is the blessing of the little girl for several generations. Serve your lord with all your heart."

When she said this.Qingyan was secretly stuffing the chicken legs for the little cat in his arms, with one hand in his arms - take it, the chicken legs will be exposed, don't take it, the image is really worrying, it's really hard to advance or retreat, it's embarrassing.Fortunately, Shu's mind is not on her at all. This girl's eyes are full of Mu Zheng, and her small face is blushing with embarrassment. Qing Yan guesses that he will not attract attention if he dances in front of her, so he quietly took out his hand , Throw the kitten's leftover chicken legs aside.

In that room, Mu Zheng didn't care about Shu's family at all, his mind was full of the playful and seductive look of Yue Qingyan when he ran away just now, and his heart was full of anger provoked by that woman, and he was annoyed!Naturally, he didn't take Shu's wine glass, and he didn't even stand up, so he casually raised the glass in his hand, which was considered a correct answer to her.

Shu was bored by herself, so she glanced at Mu Zheng rather sadly. She had a special status and attracted everyone's attention when she stood up.Seeing her come down to toast, all the ministers and women's family immediately talked about it, and their eyes rolled around - this glass of wine is amazing, it is obviously to respect the king of Yan, but in fact it is provoking Princess Yan!Good show, good show!

Unexpectedly, Mu Zheng gave a cold face when he came up, Shu Shi could not advance or retreat, the glass of wine in her hand was not toasted, she must have no face to go back, so she could only bite the bullet and respect Qingyan: "Little girl respects the princess, In the future, I will do my best to assist the princess and take care of the inner courtyard."

Qingyan said in his heart, Yoho, it seems that the Queen Mother has already expressed her intention of favoring the Shu family to host Zhongfei, and this Shu family can't wait to come over and swear an oath of sovereignty to herself, hehehehe, since everyone stretched their faces over to let her She hit, how could she have no reason not to fight?

So she didn't accept Shu's wine either.He just looked at her with a smile on his face, and said with small words: "Miss Shu hasn't entered the door yet, the one who saved you is the prince and not the concubine, I can't drink this thing in your hand, don't worry, if it comes true in the future Sister, naturally there will be time for you to serve tea. Otherwise, you should go home and practice first, so as not to panic in the morning and evening." Shu's face turned pale and red from embarrassment. Reasonable, but also can not find a fault.

She bit her lip, now that she can't come down to the stage, there are some whispers in the hall, she can certainly use this to pretend to be pitiful and win some sympathy, but if the Queen Mother and King Yan see that she can't handle even a small situation on the fly, I'm afraid In my heart, I would doubt her ability to preside over Zhongfu, so I turned my heart and poured the wine as soon as I raised my head. After I poured it, I snatched the jug from the hand of the maid next to me, filled it myself, and poured it again. .

After drinking three cups like this, Qingyan raised his eyebrows.

After drinking three cups of Shu's, she lightly covered her red lips. Thinking about it, she seldom drank fast wine, and she was obviously a little dazed when the alcohol was aroused. Now she is all supported by will, and it is not easy. Qingyan saw that she was stable Calm down, take a step back and knelt down, performed a serious salute to the Wanfu ceremony, and said loudly: "I would like to follow the teaching of the princess, the little girl overstepped, and punished herself with three cups. Please forgive me."

In order to find a decent step down for herself, this Shu family is really willing to let go, so Qingyan can't say anything more, and has to go to help Shu family, after all, she has kneeled down to her, if she shouldn't, it is She became more and more arrogant and rude, so she had no choice but to get up reluctantly and walk over, as if to help Shu Shi.

As a result, as soon as I bent down, I heard: "Meow~"

Shu Shi was stunned, and his eyes fell on Qingyan's arms: "Cat?"

Then, it was too late to say it, but it was too fast, and I saw Qingyan's sharp little claws stretched out from his arms, wrapped in Li Feng, and greeted Shu's face politely!
