Chapter 564 Banquet Gifts
Seeing that the two were talking happily, the woman felt more and more that the two were laughing at her, and immediately became even more annoyed. She clenched her fingers tightly, veins burst out on her forehead, and beads of sweat appeared on her nose. Suppressing his temper, he still panted heavily from his nasal cavity.

"Earlier, I heard that the two ladies are polite and eloquent," she snorted heavily through her nose, her face flushed with white powder, and she snorted heavily. The officials have grown up a bit, and now they are killing others like this."

She stared at Tang Luoyu with wide-eyed eyes, rolling her eyes around the two of them, her chest heaving and falling, she was obviously very angry, but she insisted on pretending to be indifferent, not only was there no oppression sense, but more ridiculous.

As soon as Tang Luoyu raised his eyes, he saw her looking like an inflated clay doll. He couldn't hold back for a moment, chuckled, and quickly raised his wide sleeves to cover the lower half of his face, as if calmly curling up the corners of his lips. Wipe the raised arc clean.

But this move did not escape the other party's eyes, she was immediately annoyed, and her voice was a little higher, "What is Mrs. Xue's intention? Are you laughing at me?"

Tang Luoyu didn't say a word, and she was already furious again, the powder on her face fell down with the fluctuating facial features, like dry putty on the wall.

The female family members around were a little displeased when they were attracted by her voice.

"Ma'am, you're joking." Madam Zhao was the first to speak. She has no body, and naturally she doesn't care if she is impatient or not, "We are sitting at the same table today. We should be in harmony and celebrate the festive season together. If you are so aggressive again Don't blame me for being rude, then you will have no chance to go around and say that I am bullying others."

There was an obvious threat in Mrs. Zhao's dark eyes, but her voice was still gentle and calm, like the surface of a lake blown by the wind, without any waves on her face.

The woman was startled, and then her face turned pale, with some panic showing on her face, but she was still unwilling, "Could Madam Zhao be threatening me?"

"Whether it's a threat, Madam knows it well," Madam Zhao's gentle lips curled up, "I remember that Lord Yushi Zhongcheng always likes to impeach Lord Xue. Could it be that you gave him the idea this time, specially to do so at the banquet?" Let me pick Madam Xue's thorns? Let me tell you plainly, Madam Xue is thin, and now she is pregnant again, if you feel unwell after the banquet, I will ask you!"

She put the cup in her hand on the table in a gentle manner, made a crisp "pop" sound, and some tea splashed out.

The woman trembled in fright, her facial features twisted, her shoulders trembled slightly, then her brows frowned, and she stood up angrily, "You!"

She just yelled a word, but she didn't think she moved too much, and knocked over the wine glass beside her, and the wine glass fell on the table with a "bang", and the wine dripped down, and the hem of her clothes was dyed in the blink of an eye. It was dark, and the air smelled of alcohol.

She subconsciously let out a scream and took half a step back. Unexpectedly, her feet were unstable, but she staggered back again and fell to the ground with a "bang".

There was too much commotion, and a small commotion soon ensued, which finally attracted the attention of the entire audience. All eyes fell on the woman, either in surprise, blame, or doubt.

"What's going on?" Although Liu Xiang was old, his eyes were extremely sharp. "There was so much noise at the banquet, what's the proper way?"

The woman's face turned pale again in an instant, and she got up from the ground with her hands and feet, and kept saluting and apologizing, "My lord, calm down! My lord, calm down!"

Liu Xiang's eyebrows became tighter and tighter, and he was about to scold, but suddenly he saw Zhongcheng, the imperial censor, standing up in a hurry, saluted the emperor and all the ministers, and apologized, "The emperor calms down, my lord calms down, this is my lord. Officials, this person is inherently stupid, he was clumsy at home in the past, and he was excited and happy when he attended the palace banquet today, so he accidentally fell down and disturbed everyone's interest, please calm down your majesty and lordship."

The little emperor has always had a good temper, so of course he will not pursue it, "Today is a festive day for the palace banquet, so there is nothing wrong with being happy, so let's talk about disturbing, come, someone, take her down and tidy up, there is no need to investigate the fault."

Seeing that the emperor didn't say anything, Liu Xiang was even more embarrassed to get angry on the spot, but curled his lips, snorted coldly, and didn't express his opinion.

Censor Zhongcheng seemed to be pardoned, his forehead was already full of sweat, he turned his head and gave the woman a hard roll of his eyes, "Did you hear that? Hurry up and get down here! Don't be an eyesore here!"

"Yes……"

The woman obediently agreed, and the previous arrogant and domineering arrogance disappeared as if a basin of cold water had been poured on it, replaced by a mumbled, shivering pitiful expression.

Several court ladies came up and made a gesture of "please" to her, the woman stood up tremblingly, her eyes no longer dared to look around, she just lowered her eyebrows desperately, wishing she could put her chin on her chest, It quickly disappeared at the entrance of the main hall.

Mrs. Zhao felt relieved, looked at the back of the other party going away, poked Tang Luoyu's shoulder with her elbow, and answered in a low voice: "The person who made trouble again and again is Yu Shi Zhongcheng's wife. People like to care about every detail, they are obviously just a pleasant person, but they have a hot temper and don't know how to measure."

Tang Luoyu listened to it, and secretly wrote it down.

At this time, the atmosphere of the palace banquet reached its climax, and it was already the meat part, and the ministers presented their congratulatory gifts to the emperor one after another.

Since it was the emperor's birthday, all the ministers naturally showed their talents, and the congratulatory gifts they presented were all just right. Because the little emperor opposed extravagance and waste, advocated learning from others, and loved literature, most of the things presented by the important ministers were related to books.

Although Liu Xiang has a bad stomach, he has a solid literary foundation, which is almost unmatched by anyone in the court. He spent several months annotating the Four Books, just to present them to the emperor at this time.

Jing Shan loves antiques and cultural relics, so he presented the ancient books he annotated and repaired. The regent is a martial artist, and the so-called six arts of riding and shooting are the most difficult for a gentleman. The big bow that has been given to the emperor for many years has some special intentions.

When it was Xue Lince's turn, he calmly presented the Monopoly game board he had made.

The surface of the plate was inlaid and carved with various colored glazed gemstones and gold and jade. It was extremely shiny and dazzling. Although the color looked a bit vulgar, it was something that no one had ever seen before.

After all, the little emperor was just a teenager, and he still had a playful nature, so he immediately attracted attention.
