Chapter 903: Giving Vegetables
Concubine Xian followed her towards the hall, and when she was about to take her seat, her steps slowed down.
Today's table was invited by Zhao Guiren to the Xue family, so naturally there is no reason for her Concubine Li Xian to take a seat.
Xue's so-called throne is only afraid that it is also humble.
She stopped, "Today, the princess is the guest of honor, I am just a guest, where is my turn?" Let's take a seat with the princess. ”
Xue Shi also politely excused himself, "How embarrassing is this?" Let's take a seat. ”
Zhao Guiren and the two of them often look at me when you look at me, I look at you, and finally Zhao Guiren stood up and said, "Today's table is my thank you to the princess, so naturally the princess should be seated." Concubine Xian's status is noble, please sit next to the princess, and the three of us will sit with you at the bottom. ”
Today, this Zhao Guiren is the lord, but she gave up her position to Concubine Li Xian, and she can be regarded as sensible.
A few days ago, she and Concubine Li Xian fought like a in the Imperial Garden, with a red face and a thick neck, and today she suddenly got better, which is strange.
Concubine Li Xian was surprised how she could be so sensible, and Xue Shi had already laughed, "Then it's decided, Concubine Xian, please take a seat." ”
The five of them all sat down, and at this moment, the dishes covered with lids on the table were revealed, and Concubine Li Xian took a cursory look at the dishes, which was a good table.
Zhao Guiren actually invited the Xue family with such a good banquet, but she was afraid that she would have a pain in her flesh for a month after this meal.
Concubine Li Xian suddenly remembered Zhao Guiren's words, and couldn't help but say: "Zhao Guiren just said that he wanted to thank the princess, what is the thanks?" As for such a good table, please. ”
Concubine Li Xian remembered that the Xue family entered the palace a while ago, and she vaguely heard in her ears that Zhao Guiren also went to Kunning Palace to accompany her, and now that she thinks about it, it has something to do with this matter for a long time.
Zhao Guiren smiled, "Hey, it's a trivial matter in the end." To be honest, today's table is not only for Princess Xie, but also for Concubine Xian. ”
"Me?"
Concubine Li Xian turned her face and saw Zhao Guiren with a smile on her face, her bright face with a smile was particularly good-looking, and she couldn't see that she was sarcastic in the imperial garden a few days ago.
Such a face.
If Concubine Li Xian didn't know that she was hostile to her, I am afraid that she would be deceived by her face.
"yes."
Zhao Guiren said, looking at the Xue family.
Xue Shi took the words, she smiled and picked up the wine glass, "Isn't it?" Because Zhao Guiren invited me today, I wanted to invite Concubine Xian Niangniang to come over, and I happened to think of a place with Zhao Guiren. I'm about to ask for a concubine too. ”
"Why is that?"
Concubine Li Xian was confused, and only listened to Xue's slow words: "Last time, the emperor and the queen took you to the imperial garden together, and I heard that the eldest princess also went, but I was not there at the time." If I were here, I wouldn't have let you and the concubine have a discord. It's good now, everyone is a family, how ugly is the face? ”
Xue raised his glass, "I'll give you a glass for that day's events first, and please don't hold a grudge against your concubine." ”
She took the initiative to drink it all, and Concubine Li Xian had no choice but to pick up the wine glass and drink it all, playing a dumb riddle in her heart.
Before she could speak, Xue Shi said again: "I heard about the events of that day afterwards, but in fact, it was just a misunderstanding, and no one was right or wrong." In the end, you apologize first, and when it comes to it, we owe it to you. ”
It turned out that the Xue family came to make amends on behalf of the noble concubine.
Concubine Li Xian's waist suddenly straightened.
She was always worried that she would have to be punished by the Xue family, but she didn't expect her to apologize today.
So Zhao Guiren......
Concubine Li Xian looked at Zhao Guiren, and Zhao Guiren hurriedly picked up her wine glass, "Oh, I also salute Concubine Xian's mother." I annoyed Niangniang by my disrespectful remarks in the Imperial Garden before, and asked Niangniang not to be angry with me, you don't remember the villain, okay? ”
If it were in normal times, Concubine Li Xian might not take care of her.
But the Xue family had done the foreshadowing before, and now in front of the Xue family, Concubine Li Xian could not directly refute Zhao Guiren.
After hesitating for a moment, she picked up her wine glass, "Well, I didn't suppress my anger that day, and I gave you no face, so don't mention it again from now on." ”
Zhao Guiren hurriedly raised the bottle and drank it all, and Concubine Li Xian also drank it.
She knew in her heart that Zhao Guiren could not change his personality all of a sudden, there must be a reason for this, but no matter what the reason, it was still necessary to maintain a superficial friendship with the concubines in this harem.
She didn't want to tear her face for no reason, as long as Zhao Guiren didn't provoke her next time.
The two Chang Zai sat down, glanced at each other, and hurriedly picked up their wine glasses, stood up and said, "Princess, Concubine Xian, we also salute you two with a glass......
……
Lunch Yuanzhi went to Kunning Palace and accompanied Queen Zhou to use it together.
Queen Zhou's fetus was stable, her morning sickness was relieved a lot, her appetite was opened for a while, and the amount of dishes sent by the imperial dining room was much more.
Yuanzhi and Empress Zhou both felt that it was too extravagant to eat.
Queen Zhou glanced at it and said to Dan'er: "If the emperor doesn't eat that steamed pigeon, send it to Chuxiu Palace." There is also the cold salad with bamboo and chicken shreds, and the eight treasures of abalone fish, all sent over. ”
"Hey."
Dan'er answered and ordered someone to take the food box and put it up.
Yuan Zhi looked puzzled, "Why don't you ask who your master sent to Chuxiu Palace?" Isn't there three masters living in Chuxiu Palace? ”
Dan'er smiled when she heard this: "The emperor doesn't know, the three masters of Chuxiu Palace are all dining together today, and the queen didn't name anyone, so she asked the slaves and maids to send them to add a seat." Mother, is the slave right? ”
"Yes."
Empress Zhou smiled and waved her hand, "Go, let them eat and drink raw, and they don't have to come over to thank you." ”
"Yes."
Dan'er went out with a food box to the little palace maid, and Yuan Zhi said: "What is the festival today, whose birthday is it, and what kind of banquet is it to open in a good manner?" ”
Only then did Empress Zhou explain to her, "It's not a festival or a longevity, and it's not just the three masters of Chuxiu Palace in one place, but also Concubine Li Xian and the second princess." Zhao Guiren wanted to thank the second princess, so he set up a table, and the second princess invited Concubine Li Xian to accompany her. So at this moment, in the harem, several masters are all in Chuxiu Palace. ”
It is rare for a few of them to get together in one place, no wonder Queen Zhou wants to send food to add to the banquet.
Yuan Zhi knew a little about Zhao Guiren's request for help from the Xue family, and he said: "Zhao Guiren should invite the second princess, how could the second princess invite Concubine Li Xian too?" She is such a smart and clear person, don't you know that Concubine Li Xian and Zhao Guiren have never dealt with each other? ”
These two people don't deal with even Yuanzhi, and it seems that no one in the harem knows about it.
Empress Zhou shook her head amusedly, "No, even the emperor knows that they don't deal with it, so they have to hurry up and think of ways to make up for it?" Especially Zhao Guiren, she has a low position, and took the initiative to invite Concubine Xian over for dinner, plus the second princess said peace there, won't this grievance be resolved? ”
