Chapter 41 Hate
Sorrow to sorrow, the queen's lotus feast has to go.

At least Xu Sini should be more reluctant than her.

She probably wishes now that she could be completely forgotten by the world.

With such a comparison, Su Xiaosi's mood became much clearer.

But this time when going to the palace for a banquet, you still have to be careful that the Empress Empress is unhappy with her and wants her to die, so it's better to keep a low profile.

Therefore, five days later, on the day of entering the palace for a banquet, seeing Su Junning, who was dressed so plainly like never before, the rest of the Su family were stunned.

"Today is the Empress's banquet, are you sure that Fourth Sister will stop dressing up?" Su Yuxuan asked tentatively.

In his image, his little sister has always been full of flowers, delicate and bright, although today she is also as elegant as a lotus flower, but she is a bit too plain.

Su Yu'an also nodded, "Dressing like this, I'm afraid that others will think that we don't pay attention to the queen's banquet."

In response to the doubts of the two brothers, Su Junning raised her arms and showed off her clothes calmly.

"Although it is more plain, the clothes are still made of Shu brocade, but I chose the color of crescent moon white. Although there are few hairpins on my head, I also use the best Nanzhu steps, and it is by no means shabby. gone."

Seeing what the two elder brothers wanted to say, Su Junning had a showdown.

"Miss Xu's family just had a scandal in our house. I'm afraid that it will be too conspicuous and the empress will target me."

In this way, the two of them reacted.

"That's right, let's keep a low profile today." Su Yuzhen nodded silently.

After finishing speaking, the four people boarded the carriage.

It would not be too ostentatious for four people to arrange four cars, so this time only two cars were arranged, with the two brothers at the front and the two sisters at the back.

The number of times that Su Junning and Su Zhiyi rode in the same carriage is almost rare, so the two of them tacitly did not speak.

The carriage arrived outside the palace gate.

After the four of them got out of the car, they showed the queen's invitation card, and the eunuch led them to the Furong Terrace where the banquet was held.

The origin of the name of Furong Terrace is because the lotus in the pool next to it blooms extremely beautifully every year, so this high platform was built beside the pool, and the view is very wide.

The brothers and sisters of the Su family didn't want to show off today, so when they arrived at the place, they all chose corner seats to sit down.

On the court, men and women were seated on the left and right, and Su Junning and Su Zhiyi were sitting together, on the right.

Perhaps it was because she always liked to wear brightly colored clothes, but today she suddenly became sober, and no one really noticed that she had come.

So Su Junning sat silently in the corner and observed the people who had arrived on the field.

There are still many familiar faces, such as Wang Xuwei, Li Lingxi, Xu Ruofu, etc., are already there.

For the banquet in the palace, no one dares to be late.

In fact, there is still half an hour before the banquet starts.

She glanced around, but she didn't see Xu Sini's figure, Su Junning couldn't help wondering how she would appear on the stage today, so that everyone would forget the scandal half a month ago.

But there is also a possibility that she will not come.

However, Su Junning thinks that she will still come. After all, this kind of thing can be avoided on the first day of the junior high school but not on the fifteenth day. Sooner or later, she will come out to meet people.

Especially today when the empress is present, with such an aunt who is less than one person and more than ten thousand people supporting her, no one dares to mention that scandal, it is really the best time to come back.

If it drags on for a long time and never subverts that image, not only will the incident not fade out of people's hearts, but it will be deeply imprinted in everyone's hearts and become an eternal laughing stock.

And the matter is just as Su Junning guessed, at the moment Xu Sini is in the queen's palace.

"Your Majesty, Miss San has already dressed up, please take a look at her."

Tanxi came out from the inner room and saluted the queen who was drinking tea.

The queen put down the teacup, nodded slightly, and saw Xu Sini holding the hand of the servant girl, walking out from behind the screen slowly.

Although she was dressed very grandly today, she still looked not in a good state of mind. She had lost a lot of weight and her head was drooping.

"Aunt." Xu Sini called in a low voice.
"Come here." The queen said softly, and when Xu Sini came to her, she took her hand, "You look up at aunt."

Xu Sini raised her head slowly, with a decadent expression.

That's right, going through such a scandal is not bad for a high-ranking lady who values ​​face very much in this era.

Today, she is willing to enter the palace to participate in the Lotus Appreciation Banquet, which is already a great courage.

The queen took Xu Sini's hand and said seriously.

"I know what you are thinking in your heart. You are just worried about the ridicule of everyone, but you have to know that things have already happened and are irreversible, and the only thing you can do is to cheer up as soon as possible and overthrow those unsightly past events. They don't dare to laugh at you, the purpose of this Palace to support you today is to ask you to show off the air of a young lady from the Duke's Mansion again."

"The ancients said that a man can bend and stretch, and this sentence is also applicable to women. You have read a lot of poetry and books. You don't need to tell me the stories of the past and present. You also know that if you really don't recover from this setback, you will have fulfilled the wish of the Su family. .”

When Su Junning was mentioned, Xu Sini's eyes burst out with strong hatred.

It was all because of that bitch that she became the laughing stock of Bianjing. If it wasn't for her, how could she have ended up like this!
"I will remember what my aunt said, she loves you so much, I will definitely live up to your expectations!" Xu Sini gritted her teeth and raised her head.

Hatred is one of the best weapons to cheer people up. At this moment, Xu Sini's heart was filled with hatred.

Seeing that her condition had met her expectations, the queen patted her on the shoulder with satisfaction.

"Yes, Xu's daughter, it should be like this. After a while, aunt will go to Furong Terrace with you."

Xu Sini nodded and straightened her back again.

And the other side.

In the imperial study room, the Crown Prince, King Jin, Fourth Prince and Seventh Prince were greeting Emperor Jianning.

Although they entered the palace to go to the queen's banquet, they had to go to Emperor Jianning first.

"It's rare to be lively in the palace, and you should take some time to relax today. The prince has been very busy recently, and I just took this opportunity to relax. There are also the third and seventh children. You all look at each other. Is there any woman you like? If you really choose the good ones, and the emperor will give you a marriage, this man still has to marry a wife to be considered a family."

Emperor Jianning held the teacup and looked at his four sons with a smile.

Although he doesn't have many heirs, it's rare for him to be in harmony with his brothers, which makes him feel at ease.

But after he finished speaking, the Seventh Prince smiled and cupped his hands.

"Father, my son is still young, and I don't want to start a family so early. Originally, my son made an appointment with Qianwei to go horse racing today. I didn't expect to meet with the Queen's banquet. Qianwei is still in the palace right now. Waiting outside the door for Erchen, Erchen thinks about going to Furong Terrace to report to his mother later, and then sneak out of the palace, so it is third brother who should start the family business."

Upon hearing this, King Jin also stepped forward and bowed his hands.

"Father, my son's concubine has passed away for less than three years, and my son is still unwilling to remarry."

Emperor Jianning snorted softly, glanced over the two of them, and put down the teacup in his hand.

"All of you, the third one, you have guarded the Li family for two years, and you have done everything you can, and the seventh one, you are almost twenty, and you are still young? Let me go to Furong Terrace!"

"But Qianwei him"

Before the Seventh Prince could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Emperor Jianning.

"The Shen family boy is not young anymore, he should start a family and start a business, Wang Lianyi, go to the gate of the palace and send a message to let the Shen family boy come in for the banquet!"

The prince responded and went away in a hurry.
