"Brother, don't be impatient. You have to trust my sister. I have my own plan for everything."
Wang Zhenying picked up the wine cup and presented it to her eldest brother.
Intend?
What could she have planned?
Wang Gong didn't believe a word he said.
"Look at you, this rare opportunity has been wasted by you like this. Let me see how you can still hang out in the harem in the future."
Wang Gong could completely imagine that today, his sister would be trampled on by Zhang Guiren in public. Even if she returned to the palace today, not to mention tomorrow, Wang Zhenying would immediately become the laughing stock among the female family members in the harem.
Wang Zhenying was not afraid, kept her feet up, and continued to drink and eat. Not only that, her toast scope also expanded from Xie Shi and Wang Gong to further places.
Xie Shi's heart has been pounding for several times. From the beginning, he was a queen who could also drink, to the current queen who drinks a lot.
I finally understood why Wang Gong kept trying to stop the queen from drinking.
It’s almost impossible not to drink it. Once you drink it, it’s amazing!
However, after witnessing Wang Zhenying's good drinking skills with his own eyes, Xie Shi had more doubts in his heart.
Why did the Queen pretend to be crazy and act stupid at Zhang Guiren's birthday banquet, and also degraded herself and showed no dignity?
Xie Shi believes that everything will not be so simple.
…………
"What kind of dish is this? Why do you add sweet-scented osmanthus!"
The atmosphere of the banquet became more and more lively, the guests exchanged glasses, and even Sima Daozi was already half drunk.
Zhang Guiren's exaggerated complaints did not attract many people's attention.
She picked up her chopsticks and plucked the dishes a few times.
That’s right!
Those things that are not very clear, but dotted, are the osmanthus flowers that stick to the dishes!
That’s not true!
"Your Majesty, this is sweet-scented osmanthus and lotus root." Xiao Guiya, who had no idea, replied diligently, and it was he who brought this dish to Zhang Hezi.
In order to get the chance to appear in front of His Majesty, Xiao Guiya tried his best.
When dealing with noble people, Xiao Guiya followed a policy, was diligent and considerate, and smiled from time to time.
Regardless of Xiao Guiya's background, he still has good looks and is eloquent. Otherwise, Sima Daozi would not have taken a liking to him.
"Osmanthus sugar lotus root?"
"Did you arrange this dish?" Zhang Guiren frowned and his tone was not kind.
Sima Yao immediately noticed the change in Qinqin Baobao's expression, and quickly came forward and put his arm around her shoulders: "My dear, what's wrong with this dish?"
Zhang Guiren sighed, after all, this man didn't care about anyone.
"Your Majesty, I told you that I don't like to eat sweet-scented osmanthus."
"You can't even look at it!"
The more Zhang Guiren thought about it, the angrier she became. She used her chopsticks to poke several holes in the sweet and delicious sweet-scented osmanthus lotus root.
Xiao Guiya's heart skipped a beat, it was broken!
This flattery has hit the donkey’s hooves!
"Your Excellency, please forgive me. This dish is a famous dish in Juxian Tower. In order to prepare a birthday banquet for the empress today, King Langya specially ordered all the delicacies in Juxian Tower."
"I didn't take good care of you, and I didn't know that the noble didn't like to eat sweet-scented osmanthus. It's all my fault. Please forgive me, noble lady!"
As a sycophant who is good at flattering, Xiao Guiya is well versed in the principle of slipping and kneeling, and is skilled in the business.
As he spoke, he knelt down with tears streaming down his face.
Zhang Guiren was extremely angry. A birthday banquet that was just fine was disrupted by the queen, and now she even saw her least favorite osmanthus.
This day is really unbearable!
"Who do you think you are, you deserve to apologize to me?" Zhang Guiren's face turned red and he kept puffing out his mouth.
"Your Majesty, Nunu is not happy, please find a way!" Whenever he feels dissatisfied, he goes to Sima Yao. This has become Zhang Guiren's habit.
As a nine-five-year-old, is there anything that Sima Yao can't solve?
In Zhang Guiren's eyes, Sima Yao is omnipotent and the real controller of the Jin Dynasty.
Sima Yao, who has never had a sense of existence and can only be used as a decoration, can satisfy all his vanity in Zhang Guiren.
At least, in front of Xiao Zhang, I am still the Emperor of the Jin Dynasty!
Fulfilling Xiao Zhang’s wish is my greatest success, Sima Yao!
Sima Yao stroked Zhang Guiren's shoulder and said with a smile: "This is not easy, just drag him out and give him a good beating."
Sima Yao thought for a while: "Twenty big boards!"
Twenty big boards?
When Xiao Guiya heard this, his legs went weak and he almost fainted.
"Xiaya, why don't you kowtow to the empress and apologize!"
At the critical moment, Sima Daozi quickly stood up.
He didn't want to defend Xiao Guiya, but just wanted to find a chance to talk to Zhang Guiren.
Xiao Guiya, who collapsed on the ground, was stunned for a moment and immediately understood.
"It's all the slave's fault. Your Majesty is magnanimous. Please forgive me!"
"Your Majesty, please spare this slave!"
"I don't dare to do it anymore!"
Langya Prince's Mansion is gorgeously decorated, and the floors are all paved with bluestone tiles. The bluestone tiles are not just simple bluestone tiles, but are carved with exquisite patterns.
Xiao Guiya's big head knocked on the bluestone bricks again and again, making a banging sound. As soon as he heard the sound, he knew that Xiao Guiya must be knocking seriously and with real material.
Zhang Guiren was originally angry and thought that the twenty-big board was a bargain for this blind servant. He was about to add a few more boards, but when he saw Sima Daozi's smile, he lost his temper again.
"King Langya, please explain to me what your servant does?" Although Zhang Hezi has not yet let go, his tone and demeanor have softened a lot.
Sima Yao, who was holding her shoulders and looking for the feeling of being a real emperor, was still unaware of the transformation of his beloved concubine.
Sima Daozi raised a glass of wine and said with an apologetic smile: "My lord, please forgive me. Xiya only came to the palace recently and I don't know many things."
"Besides, strictly speaking, this matter cannot all be attributed to Xiya. This dish was brought in from outside, not made by the palace."
"It is indeed a famous dish of Juxian Tower. When the owner of Juxian Tower heard that the palace was going to entertain a distinguished person, he immediately expressed his willingness to help, and then he used all his housekeeping skills."
"In order to organize a birthday banquet for the noble man, I heard that the Juxian Building is not open to welcome guests this afternoon, so I ask the empress to spare Xiya for the sake of everyone's sincerity."
Regardless of whether he has fine or coarse teeth, Zhang Guiren doesn’t recognize any of them.
The only thing she knew was Daozi's smile, and it was not impossible to raise his hand.
The corners of his lips curved, Zhang Hezi smiled sweetly, his charming eyes were as silky as silk, and his soft eyes moved to Sima Daozi: "I didn't expect that King Langya would be so considerate of his subordinates."
"I am not showing sympathy for my subordinates, but I am showing sympathy for Your Majesty and Your Majesty. It is not worth getting angry and hurting yourself for such a new slave."
"Your Majesty, if you don't like osmanthus, just remove this dish."
Sima Daozi waved his hand, and the little maid who had been preparing behind the guests ran out and took down the sweet-scented osmanthus and lotus root.
In this matter, Sima Yao completely obeyed the command of his beloved concubine. If his beloved concubine said to beat him, he would beat him. If his beloved concubine said to forgive, it would not matter if he forgives.
That charming look was focused on Sima Yao again. Zhang Guiren smiled and said: "Your Majesty, how about giving face to King Langya."
Sima Yao raised his face and pretended to be calm: "Of course I have to give King Langya his face."
"Get up and be more careful in the future."
After Sima Yao spoke, Xiao Guiya dared to stop kowtowing. When he raised his head, his big head was already bleeding profusely.
Sima Daozi clicked his tongue twice: "Go and deal with it quickly, it's bloody and weird!"
Xiao Guiya felt like he was being pardoned, he raised his feet and ran away without looking back.
This dish is really unlucky. The little maid held it in her hands, but she couldn't help but feel happy.
Very good!
No one cares about the dishes that were taken away, this sweet osmanthus sugar lotus root is mine!
The hem of her skirt was fluttering, and the little maid walked away quickly with light steps. Just as she passed the corner of the desk, a shout suddenly came to her ears.
"Bring me the candied lotus roots!"
The little maid paused in her steps: What?
what happened?
You heard that right!
Turning her head, the little maid discovered that the person tapping on the table and looking at her passionately was none other than the current queen, Wang Zhenying!
"Queen, this is what Zhang Guiren has left, isn't it good?"
Xie Shi had seen clearly Wang Zhenying's strange behavior today, and he had nothing to say.
As for the Queen's brother, he has already given up.
whatever!
It's all casual.
Wang Zhenying said cheerfully: "Hey, Xie Pushe, you are worrying too much!"
"Noble people don't like osmanthus, but I like it best. To tell you the truth, I even have an osmanthus tree planted in my yard. I planted it myself."
Even the little maid dare not disobey the Queen's request.
After hesitating for a while, the dish was brought to Queen Wang.
Tsk tsk...
This cunning woman is really a waste of things.
The sweet-scented osmanthus sugar lotus root in front of me is still so soft and cute, but the beautiful shape has completely collapsed.
On a plate of five slices of sugared lotus root, the first two slices had been poked with holes by Zhang Guiren. It was impossible to even look at them, let alone eat them.
Wang Zhenying sighed, picked out the last three pieces that were still intact, gave one piece to her elder brother, and gave the other piece to Xie Shi.
"Xie Pushe, this is really strange. Even my eldest brother doesn't know that I like to eat sweet-scented osmanthus and lotus root, but King Langya knows that Zhang Guiren doesn't like sweet-scented osmanthus."
Xie Shi looked stern, and Wang Zhenying put the intact piece of candied lotus root on his plate, seemingly just casually.
However, the two ministers present immediately smelled an unusual smell.
this……
Could it be that the Queen is saying...
This matter is so big that no one dares to think about it deeply...
