Rebirth: Hug Chu Guogong's Thigh Tightly

Chapter 29
Originally, utensils in the color of peony can only be used by the queen, which can be regarded as an unwritten rule.

Xia Kelian wanted to flatter her, but she caught the horse's hoof.

The high-ranking imperial concubine was so angry that her face was distorted by the broken peony picture. Seeing this, the fifth princess hurriedly directed to the maid:
"What are you still doing in a daze, quickly throw this unlucky thing to me, the farther you throw it, the better."

The fifth princess spoke without restraint, and the word "unlucky" pierced the heart of the imperial concubine again. She immediately became angry and said:

"Come here, pull this blind thing out for me, and beat it with thirty boards."

Everyone at the scene was shocked. Thirty big boards, not to mention a weak girl like Xia Kelian, even a strong man might not be able to bear it.

When Xia Kelian heard that she was about to be beaten with a cane thirty times, her face turned pale like a ghost, she almost fainted, and she hurriedly winked at the fifth princess beside her.

The fifth princess wanted to rely on Xia Kelian to frame Xia Keyu. Seeing this, she turned her head and said:
"Mother Concubine, calm down, today is Mother Concubine's birthday, don't get angry over such a trivial matter, and ruin Mother Concubine's good mood."

"It's not intentional to want to come to Miss Xia. I heard that the Xia family has an eldest daughter who is her elder sister. I don't know if that girl knows about it."

Xia Kelian who was at the side heard this, and hurriedly seemed to have grasped for a life-saving straw, and said: "The imperial concubine, please forgive me, I did not complete this painting alone, my sister and I completed it together."

This is like a mad dog, desperately trying to drag Xia Keyu into the water, and even bite Xia Keyu when he is dying.

Naturally, the imperial concubine is not an idiot, knowing that Xia Kelian definitely didn't come to touch her bad luck on purpose, there must be someone playing tricks behind her, seeing this, she said coldly:
"Which one is the eldest daughter of the Xia family?"

Even if it is punishment, the members of the Xia family must be punished together.

Xia Keyu knew long ago that Xia Kelian would not be able to let it go, so she stood up without being humble or overbearing, walked in front of everyone, and saluted:
"Little daughter Xia Keyu, pay homage to the imperial concubine~"

The imperial concubine couldn't hide her anger, and asked: "I heard that you also participated in this painting?" This meant that they wanted to punish the crime together.

Xia Keyu remained calm in the face of danger, and said neither humble nor overbearing:

"The courtier also wants to contribute to the imperial concubine's birthday, but unfortunately, the courtiers are stupid, and they don't know everything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, so naturally they can't paint."

There were some dull things about the original body, but they didn't spread. Everyone didn't really believe it, and the imperial concubine was half-believing.

Seeing this, Xia Kelian at the other end pretended to weep and said, "Thanks to our sister's deep love, how can my sister ignore her like this and let her bear the responsibility alone?"

Seeing this, Xia Keyu raised his right hand, which was still bandaged, and said:

"I dare not lie to the imperial concubine. My daughter fell into the water last month and injured her arm. She has been afraid to move, let alone draw. I believe everyone present has heard about it."

Xia Keyu fell into the water, saying that he had seen the deceased Mrs. Liang. This incident caused a stir in Beijing, and indeed many people present had heard of it.

When the imperial concubine saw Xia Keyu's bandaged arm, she immediately believed it.

When she thought that Xia Kelian was not only disappointing, but also full of lies, she immediately became angry.

Immediately said coldly: "Come here, pull the second lady of the Xia family out for me, and punish the thirty bosses."

Xia Kelian's legs weakened and she repeatedly begged for mercy, but was dragged out by the eunuchs.

Not long after, the sound of the staff hitting one after another, mixed with Xia Kelian's sharp screams, made people shudder.

Soon, Xia Kelian's voice disappeared.

The little eunuch came in and reported: "I want to report to the imperial concubine, that girl has passed out."

The imperial concubine snorted coldly and said: "Pour cold water on me, and continue beating when I wake up. I have to finish beating the [-] big boards today."

Hearing this, everyone present was trembling with fear, and kept silent like a cicada.

Concubine Ning Gui didn't seem to want to let Xia Keyu go, after all, she was the sister of that scumbag, and she was an eyesore.

He just said coldly: "What gift did you bring up?" Naturally, he wanted to criticize.

Xia Keyu knew that as long as the anger in Concubine Ning Gui's heart remained, no matter what she offered, Concubine Ning Gui would find fault.

At the moment, I paid my respects, and said in a calm and unhurried way:
"The imperial concubine, please calm down. The picture of peonies presented by Sister Cai just now is just last year's peonies. Presumably they are old and withered peonies."

"It's futile for Sister She to use her painting skills to keep the withered peony. I'm afraid it's God's will."

As soon as these words came out, Concubine Ning sat up straight, her eyes lit up.

Xia Keyu continued: "This spring's peony flowers haven't bloomed yet, don't you think that the capital needs new peonies to replace them this spring?"

Speaking of this, she raised her eyes and looked at Concubine Ning sincerely, as if she was very sure of what she said.

Not only Concubine Ning, but everyone present also tasted what Xia Keyu said.

Old peony flowers, old and withered peony flowers naturally refer to the queen outside the palace.

The need for new peonies to bloom naturally means that the palace needs a new master, and the world needs a new mother.

Concubine Ning looked into the woman's watery eyes, finally calmed down the anger in her chest, and said three times in succession: "Okay, okay, okay!"

After saying that, Xia Keyu took out her present, which was a simple and elegant Yu Ruyi prepared for her by Prince Liang's mansion, and said:
"My daughter presents a jade ruyi, wishing my mother all the best~"

Everyone present was impressed by Xia Keyu. With a few simple words, he was able to convince the furious Concubine Ning, and also changed the form on the court, and even won the appreciation of Concubine Ning.

This woman is definitely not simple.

However, the little eunuch at the other end was playing vigorously, and Xia Kelian had already finished playing her [-] big boards.

After Xia Keyu finished speaking, she slowly returned to her seat.

Seeing that Xia Kelian, who had already fainted and was dying outside the house, was dragged out by the eunuch, she was afraid that she would be sent back to Xia's house.

A hint of sarcasm flashed in Xia Keyu's eyes.

The stupid Xia Kelian thought that she could be framed.Now that she has made a move, she is absolutely sure of getting out.

This time, Xia Kelian shot herself in the foot.

The palace banquet was still going on, and the unhappiness just now was dispelled by Xia Keyu's words.At the beginning, the daughter of the minister played music and played the piano, and the scene became harmonious.

However, Xia Keyu's actions just now naturally aroused some people's dissatisfaction.

For example, the fifth princess was very displeased that Xia Keyu was praised by his mother and concubine, and immediately provoked:
"This Miss Xia is so eloquent, why didn't she come out and speak for her sister earlier?"

This is to question why Xia Keyu didn't save Xia Kelian.

Xia Keyu stood up neither humble nor overbearing and said: "My daughter is stupid, how to deal with my younger sister, my daughter will obey the imperial concubine's orders. My daughter dare not make decisions without authorization."

In short, I was stupid one by one, pretending that I didn't think of it before.

The fifth princess was so angry that she had nothing to say immediately, she couldn't refute her concubine mother.

But when she rolled her eyes, she had another bad idea.
