007: fight hard
007: Ever since Douxun knew that Concubine Shu was likely to be Le Wang’s partner, the Queen had been particularly thoughtful about this aspect. When Concubine Shu said this, the Queen glanced at her and then said: "Oh my god/
The soldiers of the imperial court are brave and good at fighting, but King Le is just a bunch of rabble. If such a small formation is disrupted, how can we stand beside the emperor? Or does Concubine Shu have no confidence in the soldiers of the imperial court?"
"I really don't dare to agree to what the Queen said. I am just a woman and a child. How can I dare to discuss the government?" Concubine Shu immediately regained her consciousness and became cautious. She was a little dissatisfied with herself after hearing what the Queen meant.
Because I saw Lan Niang's anger, I couldn't suppress it for a while. If you want revenge, you can't be impatient. You have been waiting for decades, and you still care about this moment?
Thinking of this, Concubine Shu calmed down and naturally knew what to do.
When the Queen saw Concubine Shu, she knew the opportunity and did not continue to be embarrassed. She walked in, and everyone naturally followed. The hall was brightly lit, and the palace people stood on both sides with their hands lowered. When the Queen came in and bowed, the Queen extended her hand.
He raised his hand and said, "Everyone, get up and go see how the banquet is being prepared."
"Yes." Someone responded immediately.
Aruo didn't say a word and just stood where she should be. She was still the same as usual, but her heart was always a little worried. She didn't know who she should worry about. Le Wang had his own cheap girl, and here
But she has a man she loves. No matter which party fails, she will be the one who suffers.
She was surprised, how could God allow a person like her to live in the world? She was really born to suffer. Maybe she owed them money in her previous life, so she had to repay the debt this time? But this unjust debt was really
It costs lives.
Wine and delicacies were served like a stream, and the concubines sat down in their respective positions one after another. The Queen sat steadily above them, looking down at them calmly with a smile on her face. Aruo had to admit that no one here could
To have such magnanimity, courage and mind as a queen, to be able to approach the city without chaos, to raise a cup and shout with a smile on her face, is truly the style of the mother of a country.
"First of all, I would like to congratulate my Daqi soldiers with this glass of wine. They will be able to surrender the rebels and restore peace and tranquility to the people. My emperor is so wise and powerful that he will definitely be able to repel the enemy soldiers and behead the bandits. His wisdom will be passed down tomorrow." The queen stood up, raised her wine glass high, and shouted loudly.
The congratulations. The voice carried a steady force and swirled around in the vast hall. When you heard it, the blood was faintly rising in people's hearts, and they couldn't help but join in.
After drinking it all, everyone's hearts relaxed a little, and the atmosphere became more lively than before.
"After all, she is the empress. She is much more knowledgeable than my concubine. I only do embroidery and raise birds. In this case, this kind of magnanimity is unique. The mother is worthy of the world.
, I respect you." Concubine De is the most afraid of flattery. Listening to her words, she is really hard to flatter.
Everyone is willing to listen to good words, and the Queen is no exception. Her tense face softened a little, and she looked at Concubine De and said, "You are so smooth-tongued. No wonder the third prince is the most likable, but he has accepted your true legacy."
Concubine De pursed her lips and smiled, "Don't say that. Who doesn't know that the third prince has been in your palace for as long as he is young? As my biological mother, you don't need to put gold on my concubine's face. The big guys can see clearly. Even if
No matter how thick-skinned I am, I don’t dare to be greedy for credit at this time, so please spare me. If you really think that I am a good person, and you give me a jar of your treasured pear blossom wine, you will be taking advantage."
Everyone laughed, and the queen looked at everyone and pointed at Concubine De and said: "Look, this scumbag has a lot of nice things to say. He is thinking about my good things. I'm so happy today. I'll look back.
I’ll reward you with a jar.”
"Concubine, please thank your empress first, I can have a good time this time." Concubine De smiled so hard that she was so happy.
It was not without some scheming that Concubine Nian De raised the third prince so well. The queen's thighs held her well, and both mother and son were safe.
"Concubine De has spoken. I can't just give her an advantage. At today's banquet, we will try the pear blossom wine I made to see if it suits your taste." The queen smiled and clapped her hands, and asked someone to bring the wine.
.
The palace maids in pink clothes lined up one by one, each holding a jade bottle in their hand, which contained fragrant pear blossom wine. As soon as the cork was opened, the aroma of the wine spread out, and there was a refreshing smell.
The sweet fragrance that enters the lungs.
"The queen is in such a high mood today that she is even willing to take out your pear blossom wine?" Emperor Zhengxian strode in, followed by Qin Shifeng and three others, each with a faint look on their face.
smile.
"Of course good things must be shared with everyone. This pear blossom wine has been buried underground for three years. How can I enjoy it alone." The queen bent down and saluted, then stood up and said with a smile.
The concubines also immediately saluted and shouted long live. Emperor Zhengxian waved his hand to let everyone get up. His eyes glanced at Lan Niang, darkened slightly, but looked at the queen and smiled: "You are thoughtful and have always been generous. However,
I brewed more than ten jars, which shows that I am really willing to give it up."
Emperor Zhengxian sat down next to the empress, and the empress poured the wine in front of him. "It's a coincidence that the emperor came here. I haven't had a drink here yet."
"Oh? I came at the right time." Emperor Zhengxian smiled.
The queen immediately had a table set up for the three princes. Food and wine were immediately served, as well as pear blossom wine. Then she smiled and said: "You three have worked hard tonight. Let's have a glass of wine to relieve your fatigue. As a
The prince can take the lead and never flinch in the face of national calamity. This is the dignity of my prince, Da Qi. My mother is proud of you."
The Queen raised her glass, and Qin Shifeng and the other three hurriedly raised their glasses, "This is the responsibility that sons and ministers should fulfill. I dare not accept the praise of my mother and queen."
As soon as Qin Shifeng explained, everyone realized that it was Pingbei Hou who led the soldiers and horses to guard the imperial city, and Ye Mingxuan led the troops and horses of the five cities to resist with all their strength. Wanrong's Jinyi guards also came out in full force. Although King Le's deployment was careful, it was
He didn't get much advantage either. The situation at the front had eased, and Emperor Zhengxian took his sons back to take a breather.
In this way, our army won the first battle, and Fengyi Palace became more and more lively. All the concubines fought for me to say a good word, and the flattering words seemed to be free of charge. After the queen started, she sat firmly aside and held hands.
The overall situation. Aruo's eyes only fell on Qin Shifeng from beginning to end, but he didn't dare to do it blatantly, just secretly.
Lan Niang's attention was all on Concubine Shu. She watched Concubine Shu's jade hand pick up the jade bottle of pear blossom wine, sweep her long armor across the mouth of the bottle, then stand up and walk towards her side.
"I would like to offer you a drink, Your Majesty. Good news about the Mid-Autumn Festival comes frequently, which shows that all of us are heroes. Your Majesty has such a powerful army, so what worries do you have?" Concubine Shu picked up the jade bottle and poured a glass of wine for Emperor Zhengxian.
Emperor Zhengxian smiled all over his face and was in a very happy mood, "What my concubine said is absolutely true. Speaking of which, my concubine has contributed to raising the eldest prince. Today, the eldest prince does not change his composure when facing a powerful enemy. His command is appropriate and I am deeply impressed by it."
Heart, change reward."
"There is no need for a reward. After the emperor drank this glass of wine, I will be very happy." Concubine Shu said with a smile, as if she was really happy because of Emperor Zhengxian's words.
"My beloved concubine, this request is too low, but a glass of wine will naturally satisfy you." Emperor Zhengxian laughed, picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
"Wait!" Lan Niang shouted loudly.
Everyone was stunned. They didn't expect Lan Niang to be so bold. Everyone's eyes immediately fell on Lan Niang.
Aruo's face turned pale, and he stretched out his hand to tug on Lan Niang's sleeve. Lan Niang was not moved, but looked at Concubine Shu with a smile, "Just now, Concubine Shu invited me to Changle Palace. With great kindness, Concubine Shu
I have nothing to repay, so I have to offer you a glass of wine first. Your Majesty is kind and generous, and I think you will be able to fulfill your wishes."
Lan Niang strode up as she spoke, reaching out to take the wine glass that Emperor Zhengxian had placed on the left side of the table. There were two identical wine glasses on the table, one of which was presented by the Queen, and the other was presented by Concubine Shu.
The one on the top, Lan Niang could see clearly just now, the one on the left was the wine glass presented by Concubine Shu.
Concubine Shu raised her eyes slightly and looked at Lan Niang with a soft smile, "Aunt Lan is really a person who understands etiquette. I will have a drink with you."
The two drank each other, and Lan Niang was a little confused. Concubine Shu drank the wine poured from the flask, and she was not sure whether there was anything else added to the wine. Concubine Shu seemed not to know that Lan Niang
Suspicious, he smiled and said: "Aunt Lan has paid your respects to me and you can go back now. I still have to pour wine for the emperor."
Lan Niang didn't realize that it was wrong. She thought maybe she was overthinking it, so she retreated with a little peace of mind.
Concubine Shu poured wine to toast Emperor Zhengxian, who drank it down without hesitation. With Concubine Shu in front, the other concubines came forward to toast one by one, and the banquet became more and more lively.
Lan Niang suddenly felt some cramping in her stomach, and she sat there with a pale face, her expression a little distorted.
Aruo first noticed something was wrong with Lan Niang and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
A thin layer of sweat broke out on Lan Niang's forehead. She held Aruo's hand and said tremblingly: "The wine is poisonous."
Aruo was shocked and immediately screamed, alarming everyone for a while. Emperor Zhengxian's expression changed drastically, and he ran over from his seat almost immediately, held Lan Niang's hand and asked: "What's going on?
What happened? Doctor Xuan, Doctor Xuan!" He clearly remembered that he had changed the wine glasses, so why would something happen to Lan Niang?
"There's no need to announce it. Du Qingyi has been hit by the colorless and tasteless Duanqingsan, and she won't be able to survive more than a moment or three." Concubine Shu said with an almost ferocious smile. She had finally waited for this moment!
