Chapter 18 Coquettish and rude
After Concubine Shu comes to make a big fuss over the Spring Banquet, His Majesty can take the opportunity again to stir up the relationship between Concubine Shu and the Queen.
By then, I am not afraid that the Chi family and the Xue family will not undermine each other.
Thinking like this, Li Fusheng made a wrong step in the chaos and "accidentally" let Concubine Xue Shu into the royal study.
At that time, Yan Chujing was looking through the latest construction plan for the southern water canal submitted by the Ministry of Industry.
This plan was re-submitted by Xue Chuo after he scolded him yesterday. It can be seen that he has made changes with intention, but it is still... very poor.
As soon as Yan Chujing lowered his lips and showed a look of disgust, Concubine Xue Shujing rushed to him angrily and snatched the book from his hand, saying angrily: "What do you mean, Your Majesty?!"
"What do you mean?" Yan Chujing slowly raised his eyes, and the sarcasm in his eyes was gradually replaced by coldness.
He didn't say anything harsh, or even raise his voice.
But with just one glance at his clear and piercing gaze, most of Concubine Shu's arrogance was extinguished.
Although she relies on the support of her family and her aunt and never takes anyone seriously, she still instinctively feels some fear when facing this cold-hearted cousin.
However, when she thought of her purpose, she immediately regained her composure: "Of course it's about the Spring Banquet! I heard that Your Majesty gave the Spring Banquet to the Queen, what does this mean?
"The spring banquet was originally a banquet organized by my uncle for my aunt, and my aunt taught me step by step for three years. Logically speaking, I should be the one to make the final decision on this matter from now on. Why did this job fall into place as soon as the queen entered the palace?
On her head?!"
Oh, uncle?
Listening to Concubine Shu's eloquent words, Yan Chujing couldn't help but have a hint of ridicule in his eyes.
He hadn't seen Concubine Shu for a few days, and he had forgotten that when his father was still alive, he had done many ridiculous things to please beauties. Among them, Concubine Xu's niece called her uncle.
pieces!
Aunt, uncle...
Such an affectionate name makes it seem like they are a natural family. As for him...
As his thoughts changed, Yan Chujing recalled many bad things. As a result, his eyes towards Concubine Xue Shu became colder.
"When the father was here, it was true that this matter was brought to the attention of the mother and concubine, but now, the father is no longer here." Yan Chujing tapped his fingers on the table, interrupting Concubine Xue Shu's chatter, "Now, I am the one in charge.
This harem is also my harem.
"Since it is my harem, I believe that everything in the harem should be handled by the queen, and others cannot say 'no'. Do you understand?"
"I don't understand!"
Where did Concubine Xue Shu hear such warning words?
Yan Chujing turned his face, and she immediately lost her temper: "It's true that the queen is the middle palace, but even if she is the middle palace, it is not her turn to make the decision on things that should not be done by her!
"Besides, does a rough man who only hangs out in military camps know how to organize a banquet?
"Leave the matter to her, wouldn't it..."
"Presumptuous!" Yan Chujing patted the table and stood up, lowering his eyes coldly, "Xue Qingyan, you have crossed the line!"
At this moment, Yan Chujing was really angry.
It wasn't that Concubine Xue Shu spoke rudely to the queen that made him feel defensive, but Concubine Xue Shu's every word and deed expressed to him that she did not take him as the emperor seriously!
In her world, even the emperor was shorter than her aunt and her family.
