52. Chapter 52 Throwing a Hongmen Banquet
Compared with Long Yu's ruthless revenge, Ling Xiaoxiao's revenge methods are very gentle.
She didn't do anything. She just held a Hongmen Banquet for Lin Guifei the next day under the guise of a banquet for the concubines.
The Imperial Garden is located in the center of the palace. It is filled with ancient cypresses, old locust trees, exotic flowers and rare herbs, which complement each other with the dotted pavilions and pavilions and the criss-crossing flower and stone paths, making the entire garden both elegant and quiet, without losing the palace atmosphere.
This is where the emperors and empresses rested and had fun after dinner.
Near noon, concubines came in twos and threes, either by car, on foot, or in small groups.
There are never secrets in the palace. The night before last, Chuntao in Fengqi Palace failed in her attempt to murder the queen and committed suicide. The news that many palace residents were punished flowed into various palaces as if they had grown wings.
There is no such thing as a good banquet. I wonder what the little queen’s idea was to entertain all the concubines at this time? Everyone was worried.
Some good people couldn't help but look at Lin Wan'er who was sitting on the Fenghu. The person who was most suspected of murdering the queen was the one in front of her.
This Lin Guibin has been having a heated argument with the Queen recently, but the Queen actually escaped unscathed after having a fight with the Queen Mother Lin. With the vicious characters of the Queen Mother and Lin Guibin, how could they swallow this dumb loss?
Lin Wan'er leaned on the phoenix in a charming manner, turning a blind eye to the concubines' guessing or gloating glances. She used her profound strength to suppress her voice into a line, and asked Jinxiu: "Are you sure you will kill all those ****?"
Cleaned up?"
Jinxiu followed Fenghu step by step and replied: "Don't worry, Madam, everything has been cleaned up. I won't let Ling Xiaoxiao get any hold on it."
"Well, that's good. I want to see what she wants to do." Lin Wan'er closed her eyes in contentment.
In the boat-shaped pavilion in Laide Lake, plates of covered dinner plates have already been placed on the stone table.
There are ten groups of stone tables, each group has one table and five stone piers. Each table has three huge dinner plates and five pairs of bowls and chopsticks.
The concubines sat down according to their positions, and some careful and clever people discovered that the queen had prepared the banquet according to the number of concubines the emperor currently had, no more, no less, exactly fifty concubines and fifty seats.
Xiaoxiao sat behind a separate table in the bow of the stone ship with a smile on her face, holding a small, hairless black bird in her hand. In front of her, there was a gleaming glazed tripod, which exuded a faint fragrance.
aroma.
This cauldron is very beautiful. Within the body of the cauldron, which is like green drops, there are seven colors of light flowing inside the cauldron. Its colors are like flowing clouds, changing in a magnificent and beautiful way.
Such a beautiful cauldron is hard to ignore. As soon as Lin Guibi saw the cauldron, her eyes widened and her face was full of covetous expression.
The Eight-Treasure Glazed Cauldron, this cauldron is a rare treasure that can help mystics of the sixth level and below to quickly cultivate. It actually fell into the hands of this good-for-nothing girl who cannot cultivate. It really makes people envious and jealous.
Lin Guibi was fascinated by the cauldron, as if possessed by a demon. She picked up the incense cauldron and tasted it carefully.
At this moment, what the cauldron was refining was the crystal core of the ice monster. A dense aroma was constantly being emitted, and this fragrant gas made her, the possessor of the ultimate ice magic, feel particularly comfortable.
She felt that under the fragrance, the ice element was extremely strong. If she could practice on the spot, she would definitely get twice the result with half the effort.
Ling Xiaoxiao saw Lin Guibi's greedy look and smiled slightly: "Does Lin Guibi like my eight-treasure glazed tripod?"
Lin Guibi snorted coldly, reluctantly moved her greedy eyes away from the tripod, and said sourly: "This tripod is so fancy and tacky, it is not suitable for me."
After saying that, he reluctantly turned around and returned to his seat to finish his work.
Looking at the eight-treasure glazed cauldron that was constantly smelling of fragrance, Ling Xiaoxiao showed an unknown smile.
