The reborn general girl is the emperor

Chapter 17
Concubine Li Gui was very displeased that all her calculations were in vain.

Especially when I heard that the wife of Wang Dechang, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, actually invited those two people to sit together, spoiling her good deeds and making her look like a clown singing a one-man show, which made Li Guifei even hate Wang Mengshi.

"Since someone wants to lick their cheeks to curry favor with the mother and daughter, let them sit like that!"

Li Guifei flicked her handkerchief, and dusted the air with a mean and disgusted face, as if there was something annoying in the air, which made her disgusted and sneered: "The seats are all arranged, where can I give them two?" Can't get on the table to change positions?!"

The female officer is in trouble.

I can't afford to offend those two from the Yan family, but I can't afford to offend this noble concubine in front of me!
But if he really did this, if he provoked the dissatisfaction of the emperor and empress, wouldn't his life and death be more unpredictable?
At this moment, the female officer felt that someone was holding a knife around her neck. No matter what she chose, the knife would fall down and kill her!
But after all, she is an old man who has lived in the palace for many years, and she has her own set of rules for weighing the pros and cons.

"These people have annoyed the empress, it is not a pity to die, but the empress must not do this at the banquet!"

The female official buried her head even lower, and her whole body lay on the ground, trying to persuade Concubine Li Gui, "The Holy Majesty has a lot of reliance on the Yan family, and now he also has the intention of flattering the orphan girl of the Yan family. If the Holy Majesty sees the empress acting like this, the empress will Didn't it make others talk, and let those damned see the empress's joke?"

Concubine Li Gui's face darkened, she picked up the things at hand and threw them at the female officer, scolding her head and face, "What kind of bastard are you?! How dare you come to teach me how to do things?!"

The female officer did not dare to hide, and was smashed straight.

The small copper censer is surprisingly heavy, and it hurts swollen and swollen when it hits the body.

The black ash spilled out of it, with unburned sparks, jumped out and landed on the back of her hand, making her shiver, but she didn't dare to withdraw her hand.

The female officer gritted her teeth and endured, and continued: "Your Majesty, please calm down. This servant is not fair for your Majesty!"

Without waiting for Concubine Li Gui to respond, the female official continued: "Those are just petty people, how can it be worthy of the empress' dissatisfaction for them? The empress wanted to deal with them, so she found a reason in private, and still Don't you eat them to death? There's really no point in breaking your own face for a few villains at a big banquet."

Concubine Li Gui thought thoughtfully, although she felt unhappy, she felt that what the female officer said made sense.

"Then add another table and let these two people who share similar smells stay together!"

Concubine Li Gui waved her hands irritably, turned around and looked at her makeup carefully in the mirror, not planning to worry about it any more.

Seeing Concubine Li Gui let go, the female officer breathed a sigh of relief, agreed, and went down to ask people to rearrange.

Not long after everything was settled, the servant's singing came from outside the hall.

"His Majesty the Emperor—Empress Empress—to—!"

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live, empress, thousand years old, thousand years old!"

A hall full of people knelt on the ground on both sides, shouting long live, and their voices shook the sky.

The emperor and the empress sat down on the highest seat in the middle, looked down at the ministers, and said slowly: "All the ministers are flat."

"Thank you, Lord!"

After some etiquette procedures were completed, the emperor announced the opening of the banquet.

The sound of orchestral strings and bamboo strings suddenly sounded, and the charming and charming dancers danced in the hall, drinking and drinking, and the candlelight in the hall reflected blurred light and shadow in the singing and dancing.

Yan Qing touched the cup with Wang Shuyu, drank the tea with a smile, but secretly glanced at the empress who was the first.

There was an empty table there.

The person who was supposed to be sitting there was the coordinator of this banquet, Concubine Li Gui, who is currently second only to the empress in the harem.

It's a pity that the imperial concubine is not feeling well, so today's banquet has been postponed.

Yan Qing gently put down the teacup, looked away, and smiled softly.

what a shame.

Seeing that Yan Qing's tea cup was empty, the maid who waited came forward to pour tea for her. The rich tea fragrance was mixed with a faint medicinal fragrance.

Yan Qing lowered his eyes, and a cold light flashed across his eyes, as if he didn't care, he picked up two longan and ate them dry.

The maid serving tea suddenly stumbled, and the warm tea splashed all over Yan Qing.

The maid was startled suddenly, her face full of panic, she knelt on the ground with a "plop", and kowtowed to Yan Qing to beg for forgiveness: "My lord, forgive me!"

The palace lady's voice was clear, and there was a lot of movement for a while. Countless pairs of eyes looked at it, and the singing and dancing in the hall were all extinguished.

The emperor lowered his eyes and asked displeasedly, "What's going on?"

The court lady didn't expect to be so far away, and the movement here would attract the emperor's attention. She became even more terrified in an instant, she quickly turned around on her knees, and kowtowed to the emperor to apologize: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for your dereliction of duty! "

The emperor frowned deeply, with visible displeasure on his face, and slightly glanced at the queen beside him.

The queen naturally understood, and she winked at the female officer who was waiting beside her, and in an instant, someone dragged the female officer who made a mistake out.

Then he said to Yan Qing: "The palace people have no status, it's because the palace is not strict in governing. After the banquet is over, the palace will order people to train them well!"

Speaking of this, the queen ordered the people around her to say: "Ranqiu, take General Yan down to change clothes."

"Thank you madam."

Yan Qing thanked the queen respectfully, and followed Ranqiu who walked down to the side hall to change clothes.

Seeing that the empress had sent a maid beside her to lead the way for Yan Qing, all the people under the banquet immediately regarded Yan Qing a little higher, and they all calculated Yan Qing's value in their hearts.

A faint sight hidden in the eyes of many sizing up, but it made Yan Qing's spine feel cold for no reason.

Yan Qing subconsciously looked at a certain position at the banquet.

However, the emperor sat at the first and fourth table, a decent middle-aged man, wearing a crimson embroidered flying crane court dress, with a smile on his face, very elegant and easy-going. The calmness of anger and prestige, and the calmness of strategizing.

Xu Xiangfeng, the prime minister of the current dynasty, from the emperor's ascension to Wen Zhemao's ascension to the throne, experienced two emperors, and sat firmly on the prime minister's position. He is now the queen's biological father, and the current emperor's head of state. He can be said to be extremely powerful.

Seeing Yan Qing looking over, Xu Xiangfeng was slightly surprised, then smiled and nodded to Yan Qing as a greeting.

Yan Qing also nodded in greeting, and looked away.

Xu Xiangfeng is a man of great means, and he is loyal to the emperor and patriotic to the point of almost foolish loyalty.

But whether in the previous life or in this life, I have no conflict of interest with him, so Xu Xiangfeng should have no reason to take a stand against him.

Yan Qing frowned slightly, hoping it was just his own illusion.

Without thinking much about it, Yan Qing put this matter behind her. Right now, she has other important things to do.

His cold eyes swept over the emperor's first seat, Wang Sunxi, and had a panoramic view of the small movements of Wen Zhemao and Yan Linger. Yan Qing was hidden in the backlight, like a ghost peeping in the dark.

Wen Zhemao suddenly felt a chill down his spine, and subconsciously looked in Yan Qing's direction, only to see Yan Qing following Ran Qiu respectfully and politely, passing behind Yan Ling'er to the side hall.

Wen Zhemao frowned slightly, thinking that he was dazzled, before he could think about it, Meng Shulan handed him a glass of wine from the side: "I'm going to the frontier, I don't know when I'll see you again, my little brother respects my cousin."

Naturally, Wen Zhemao would not take Meng Shulan's face away, drank the wine in one gulp, chatted with Meng Shulan and then looked over, Yan Qing was no longer there.
