Chapter 133 The Noble Concubine's Banquet

Xie Guifei actually served the soup for Ling Yuechan with her own hands. The concubines present were very surprised, but they turned into envy. Naturally, a small concubine is not worthy of the noble concubine's treatment like this. The fundamental reason is that the emperor valued it. If it hadn't been for the emperor's favor, how could Xie Guifei, who has always been arrogant, be wronged to do such a thing?

Looking at Xie Guifei, there was no "aggrieved" on her face. On the contrary, she was very gentle and amiable, with a smiling face. She only handed the butterfly-patterned small porcelain bowl in her hand to Ling Yuechan and said, "Xiaofei?"

Ling Yuechan did not reach out and take it. Her eyes were a little stunned. She looked at the bowl of fragrant winter mushrooms and fresh bamboo shoots and duck soup. If she looked carefully, she seemed to find that there seemed to be a trace of fear in her eyes.

Other people's eyes began to show doubts. Even if this concubine is flattered, she won't be so gaffe, right? The noble concubine herself filled the soup for her. She actually let the noble concubine hold it like this, but she didn't move. Even looking at her expression, aren't you afraid that the noble concubine will hurt her?

Cheng Jiajie sat on the edge of Ling Yuechan, quietly pinched her under the table under the cover of her wide butterfly sleeves. Cheng Jiajie sighed in her heart, I hope this is not a fight that can't be helped. Not to mention that Xie Guifei didn't pay attention to her at all, even if she wanted to harm her, how could she choose at such a time? What's more important is that the emperor has just drunk this soup. If something happens, Concubine Xie can't bear the responsibility even if she has ten lives.

Feng Yuqi was also a little dissatisfied when he saw this. Seeing that Xie Guifei was like this, he felt a little comfort in his heart. Of course, he understood that Xie Guifei was deliberately friendly to other concubines in front of him just to please him. But even so, it is extremely rare for Xie Guifei, who has always been used to being arrogant. It can be seen that after the beating some time ago, Xie Guifei has restrained. Therefore, Feng Yuqi is very happy to see this scene.

However, he didn't expect that Ling Yuechan would be so disgrateful, so ignorant, so unwise, so unsmart. Of course, his dissatisfaction is not mainly these, but more importantly, Ling Yuechan clearly distrusts him. His emperor is sitting here. Does anyone dare to do anything in the meal?

Seeing that Feng Yuqi looked at her with a little dissatisfaction and disappointment, Ling Yuechan suddenly woke up and a panic came. It suddenly occurred to her that it was not easy for her to get to where she is today. If she went on like this, I'm afraid she would have to give up all her previous efforts.

At that time, she and her mother tried their best to please her father, suppressed Ling Xiao and her mother, and even asked her father to agree to exchange her with Ling Xiao and send her to the palace. However, at the last moment, it failed! That feeling was like falling into hell from the sky. Now, have you made the same mistake again?

Suddenly, he was sealed as a concubine, and he was in the limelight for a while. Originally, he thought that he would be complacent and spoiled the harem in the future, but the emperor seemed to be more and more dissatisfied with himself. If it goes on like this, won't it be doomed? How can she stand this?!

Thinking of this, Ling Yuechan hurriedly pulled out a smile and reluctantly thanked Xie Guifei, "Thank you for the soup. My concubine just lost her temper. I hope you will forgive me." With that, he took the soup bowl respectfully, but his fingertips trembled slightly. I

"How has the noble concubine ever been so honorable, that is, the concubine can have such a supreme glory." Cheng Jiajie smiled and explained to Ling Yuechan intentionally or unintentionally, "No wonder the concubine was stunned. Isn't it because of the Empress's favor?"

Feng Yuqi's face also looked better, and he said, "Xiao Concubine, then you can drink it, so as not to violate the noble concubine's heart."

At this time, a breeze came leisurely through the cracks in the window lattice, and the leaves outside the hall rustled with the wind. Unconsciously, the autumn clothes had been quietly caged. At this time, Ling Xiao also looked at Ling Yuechan for a moment, and there was some pleasure in his heart. She thought, when did she become so vicious?

Ling Yuechan has a dark disease and usually does not have an attack, but there are a few things that can't be touched. At this time, there are a lot of things in the bowl of soup in her hand that she can't touch at all - such as winter mushrooms and fresh bamboo shoots. In addition, there are a lot of flavoring spices in the ingredients of the soup, such as fennel, star anise and so on. Although these are not absolutely untouchable, they should not be eaten too much.

Naturally, others don't know these things, but Ling Xiao knows them clearly. Ling Yuechan's illness is not noticed by anyone. Even if there is occasional discomfort, there is no particularly big problem. Just take more care of yourself. When she was ten years old, after the New Year's Eve dinner, she suddenly felt extremely uncomfortable, painful and itchy. She told Qiluo that she didn't feel right.

You know, at that time, she was only a half-year-old girl who had not left the cabinet. How could she get this disease for no reason? It really made both mother and daughter anxious, but they couldn't hire a doctor. The doctors outside are almost all men. She is a girl. She has this kind of disease. How can she let a man see it?

Don't say that it is very difficult to find a doctor. Even if you can invite her, it is difficult to say this kind of thing just from your mouth. What's more, we should also consider Ling Yuechan's reputation. Once it spreads, it will be really shameless. Others won't care whether you are a half-sold girl or not. They will only think that it's a careless life.

Although Qiluo was born as a cleaning maid in the hospital, she has never learned anything. In addition to being able to distinguish a few medicinal herbs, she has no knowledge of medicine. Even if she regrets it now, it is already too late. After thinking about it, she came to find Shen Murou. In those years, when she had not hooked up with Ling Guan, they also had a good relationship. She knew that Shen Murou had read some medical books and somewhat understood some medical science, so she wanted her to help Ling Yuechan.

Shen Murou has never been a vicious person. Even if Qiluo came to ask her for help with a not so friendly attitude, she still did not refuse. Naturally, there are also elements to consider for Ling Xiao. After all, they are all surnamed Ling. If Ling Yuechan has a bad reputation, it is not good for Ling Xiao.

In fact, Qiluo and Ling Yuechan have never known that although Shen Murou knows some medicine, she is not proficient in it. Ling Yuechan's illness was mainly favored by Ling Xiao. She has studied with Liu Bo of Baicaotang since she was a child, and she was willing to study hard, so she was quite capable when she was only 11 years old.

That time, Ling Xiao asked Ling Yuechan what she had eaten before she fell ill, what she had used, and if she had any other questions, and specially checked the meal that day. After observation and reading the basic relevant medical books, I guessed in my heart that Ling Yuechan was probably due to my physical problems. Some foods could not be eaten too much by nature, and even more, she couldn't even touch them.

According to Ling Yuechan herself, she felt that a soup was very delicious that day, so she used a lot, including a large number of mushrooms and fresh bamboo shoots. Maybe she had encountered it before, but she didn't notice it in a small amount. This time, she ate too much, and maybe she inadvertently ate something else, so she suddenly sent it out.

Since then, Ling Yuechan has never touched mushroom food again, and she doesn't even eat bamboo shoots. After that, I found several other inappropriate ingredients once or twice, but they were not serious. Gradually, I never encountered them again. Even she herself almost forgot about this. If she saw the relevant dishes at the banquet, she would automatically ignore them.

After entering the palace, even if there was a corresponding meal according to the grade, she did not eat, and naturally no one forced her. What's more, with her status, she will tell the people in the imperial dining room which dishes she doesn't like, and no one will deliberately go against her wishes. But I didn't expect to encounter this situation today.

If she doesn't eat it, she will despise the noble concubine and the emperor. But if she eats it, the consequences will be really unimaginable! However, there are still words of suffering. Did she tell the emperor that she had a secret disease? At present, there is nothing I can do. I can only force my scalp to drink the soup in my hand and drink it in one gulp, just like drinking poison, but I still want to show gratitude.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, this soup is really delicious." Ling Yuechan's face was slightly red, as if she was very grateful and respectful.

"As long as you like it." Xie Guifei smiled charmingly and began to cook for Feng Yuqi, and also greeted other concubines to start eating.

Ling Xiao also filled a bowl of soup, looked down and tasted it carefully, sighing that it was really good. This winter mushroom and fresh bamboo shoots are not to mention it. They are all good soups. They are extremely delicious. Even this duck is also fat but not greasy, fresh and mellow. However, this old duck has a warm stomach, which is the most nourishing for ordinary people, Yu Ling Yuechan... I'm afraid it's easier to accelerate the aggravation of the disease.

It's just that today's facts are strange. If Princess Xie doesn't know anything about it, will it really be so coincidental? What's more, with her nature, Ling Xiao really can't believe that she will respect a little Ling Yuechan like this. So, how did Xie Guifei know such a secret thing about Ling Yuechan? Does she really want to go to this point? Only Ling Yuechan's personal maid and Ling Xiao know about this matter. Is it...

By the second half of the banquet, Ling Xiao noticed that Ling Yuechan had begun to feel a little restless. There is an abnormal blush on the face, but because several concubines are like this - they naturally don't look very special because Feng Yuqi is present. But from her white joints and the different sitting posture, it can be seen that she has begun to feel uncomfortable.

"Concubine Xiao, what's wrong with you today?" Feng Yuqi also found that she was a little abnormal, so she asked.

"My concubine, my concubine is fine." The words Ling Yuechan are very reluctant.

Feng Yuqi took a serious look at her, turned his head and stopped looking at her. He said lightly, "If you are not feeling well, don't walk around and have a good rest in your own palace." This words was vaguely blaming, which immediately reminded people of Ling Yuechan's private visit to the imperial study. For a moment, everyone's eyes were different.

Xie Guifei also said kindly, "Sister Xiao, why don't you go back first? If today's dish is still to your taste, I'll invite you to have a good taste some other day. How about it?

Ling Yuechan listened, and her whole body was awe-in, and she was no longer forced to hold on. She got up and thanked: "I miss you so much." After saying that, he said goodbye and left in a hurry.
