Concubine Shu's plan was so straightforward that everyone could tell what she was planning.

Of course the emperor and empress can do it too.

But even such a straightforward strategy has become extremely useful because it bears the name of the late emperor. The people present are all juniors and have no privileges. Who dares to openly disrespect the late emperor?

Not even Yan Chujing can do it.

He hates being threatened the most, and the second hates it when someone uses the late emperor who has been dead for many years to suppress him.

Concubine Pian Shu has completed the first and second episodes today.

Almost as soon as Concubine Shu's words fell, Yan Chujing's eyes became uncontrollably cold for a moment. A cold light suddenly appeared in his eyes, as if the next moment, the person he targeted would be torn apart by his sharp claws.

.

"Your Majesty!" Chi Xinian quickly and quietly tugged on his sleeve.

At the same time, Yan Chujing quickly adjusted his mentality and completely hid the fierce light in his eyes.

It only happened in a split second. If you hadn't focused entirely on Yan Chujing before, you wouldn't even have noticed anything unusual about him.

During the whole banquet, only a few people in the center of the whirlpool realized that His Majesty the Emperor was angry just now.

"Your Majesty, calm down a little bit." Chi Xinian was worried that he would be impulsive and recklessly make an extreme move like handing Chen Jingshan a knife.

She had no choice but to get close to him and quietly clasp his wrist under the table so that she could catch him as soon as possible if an emergency happened.

But such a nervous move looks extremely intimate to outsiders.

It's like a pair of beautiful people cuddling together...

Concubine Shu is that outsider.

She first felt the oppression imposed on her by the emperor when he was displeased, and then she saw the queen approaching the emperor, whispering to him intimately.

The extreme contrast caused a surge of shame and anger in her heart, as well as a hint of grievance.

She just wanted to save her face, was it worth what they did?

Especially the Queen, who was leaning next to His Majesty and looking at her like that. Was this a deliberate provocation?

Concubine Shu's heart was full of resentment, and the more clearly she showed her feelings, the deeper Yan Chujing's dislike for her became.

Ha... She was clearly the one who started the trouble, but in the end she was the one who got wronged first. Do you really think that the entire harem has to revolve around her?

His eyes narrowed slightly, and the previous warmth disappeared at this moment, and his tone became colder: "Concubine Shu is right, the traditions left by the late emperor should naturally be followed by those of us who are younger.

“But there are many ways to obey, and your thoughts don’t have to be measured in gold or silver.

"In my opinion, expensive fragrant tea is respected, and unique scented tea is also respected. There is no distinction between high and low.

"As for the cost reduction you mentioned... The queen and the others have worked so hard to save the money, and they have not misappropriated a single coin. All of it has been given to the families of the soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country in the past few years.

"The cost of the banquet in the harem can be saved as a reward for regaining the territory. I think even if my father is still alive, he will greatly agree to it."

Isn’t it just to give weight to your words? It’s like no one can do it.

Yan Chujing snorted softly and looked at the person coldly.

He would like to see how embarrassed Concubine Shu was to mention his fatuous father after he had carried out the task of regaining the territory.

If he hadn't doted on his concubines too much and favored a Xue family, how could there have been such a chaotic fight for the right to inherit the throne when he died?

The name of the late emperor is usually easy to use, but it is full of flaws when it comes to the loss of territory.
