Rebirth: Hug Chu Guogong's Thigh Tightly

Chapter 97

After the queen sat down, she found that in the harem, Ning Guifei did not come to the palace banquet on time.

Ever since the Queen returned to the palace, everyone knew that the Queen and Concubine Ning had a close relationship.Now that the queen is holding a palace banquet, but Concubine Ning does not come, isn't this a blatant slap in the face of the queen?
The queen was about to get angry, after all, this was also a good opportunity to punish Concubine Ning, just a charge of disrespecting the queen was enough for her to drink a pot.

Xia Keyu who was at the side felt that Concubine Ning Gui was so cunning, and she deliberately didn't come this time, fearing that there might be fraud, so she coughed lightly and said:
"Ma'am, why don't we start first?"

Seeing this, the queen had no choice but to say, "Have a banquet~"

The maids hurriedly filed in and brought up all kinds of wine, clear tea, refreshments, etc.

The purpose of the Queen's palace banquet this time is to practice it for Liu Ruhui, the daughter of the salt transport envoy who is going to marry Goryeo.

"Princess Yonghui, when you go to Korea in the future, remember that the relationship between the two countries is the most important thing in everything. This Palace represents the entire Great Zheng Kingdom, and I offer you a toast."

The queen raised her wine glass and raised her hands and feet, showing everyone's demeanor.

Hearing the sound, Liu Ruhui hurriedly stood up and raised her wine glass, "Thank you for your teaching, Empress, I will always keep your words in mind."

The queen nodded when she heard the sound, and taught everyone: "As women, we should also follow the example of Princess Yonghui and put the righteousness of the country first."

Everyone could also hear that what the empress meant in her words was to blame the fifth princess for running away and not wanting to marry far away.

Before the words fell, I heard the voice of a woman laughing and charming outside Kunning Palace, interrupting the Queen's words:

"Hey, my good sister, the concubine is late."

Everyone also hurriedly heard that it was Concubine Ning's voice.Sure enough, Concubine Ning Guifei appeared at the gate of the palace dressed in Chinese clothes and expensive hair.

It's just that in her words, there was no trace of regret for being late, but a bit of indescribable provocation.

The empress was interrupted by Concubine Ning, but she didn't show the slightest bit of sullenness on her face, she just pretended to be indifferent, and continued: "Let's offer a toast to Princess Yonghui." As she spoke, she took a sip of her wine.

Everyone hurriedly raised their wine glasses and began to respect Liu Ruhui.

Xia Keyu had never drunk alcohol before, and Bai Xiaoxiao secretly licked the wine glass, stuck out her tongue and whispered: "It's so bitter, it's so hard to drink."

On the contrary, this aroused Xia Keyu's curiosity. She also took a sip, feeling a strange fragrance.

Concubine Ning Gui was left aside by everyone.It's just that she has been immersed in the deep palace for a long time after all, so she didn't feel embarrassed at all, but asked deliberately:

"The concubine is late, but the empress will blame the concubine?"

The queen glanced contemptuously at Concubine Ning Gui, and said generously: "It's good that people come."

Only then did Concubine Ning greet behind her: "Your Situ, come in quickly~" Behind him, a woman with a big belly walked into the palace slowly.

Concubine Ning said with a smile on her face: "I hope the empress will forgive me. The concubine had already set off, but she met Mr. Situ on the way, so she slowed down and wanted to take care of her."

If Empress Cai just said that Concubine Ning Guifei was late, it means that Empress did not understand the general situation and deliberately found trouble.

Seeing this, the queen pretended to be considerate and asked: "Master Situ is inconvenient. I have already excused you from asking for your greetings. You really shouldn't come."

Guiren Situ puffed out his belly, and bowed awkwardly: "Thank you, Empress, for your compassion, I also want to come out to be lively."

The concubines at the side all looked at Mrs. Situ's belly with jealous eyes. I'm afraid that Mrs. Situ was not here to join in the fun, but to show off the dragon fetus in her belly.

In fact, Mrs. Situ was suffering and couldn't tell. She didn't want to come, but Concubine Ning went directly to her palace and threatened her to come.

Situ Guiren's father was a Zuo disciple, and he had been working under Concubine Ning's father, Grand Master Ning. She was also a general in Concubine Ning's camp, so naturally she had to come or not.

When the two were seated, Concubine Ning happened to sit opposite Xia Keyu.

She only raised her eyes slightly, sizing Xia Keyu up and down with a pair of sharp eyes, and then retracted her eyes again, the show is about to begin.

Xia Keyu looked at nobleman Situ, whose stomach was slightly bulging, and finally recalled that Jin Zhen'er in her previous life was once accused of losing a fetus in a nobleman's womb.

Then Concubine Ning caught the handle and let the Concubine Ning at that time punish her.

Looking at it now, it is feared that the child in the womb of nobleman Situ would be lost in the previous life. After all, there has been no concubine pregnant in the palace for a long time.

Thinking of this, Xia Keyu lowered his eyes and looked silent on the surface, but in fact his heart was full of alarm bells.

The queen continued to speak to Liu Ruhui: "Princess Yonghui, you can ask King Jin for advice about the customs of Korea."

The noble man mentioned by the queen is Jin Zhen'er presented by the Goryeo Kingdom.These days, Jin Zhen'er has been favored by His Majesty in the harem and has become a thorn in Concubine Ning's side.

Concubine Ning Gui's methods of torturing people are excellent, so as soon as the queen came back, Jin Zhen'er obediently defected to the queen's camp.

Hearing the empress mentioning herself, Jin Zhen'er immediately got up and said in a crappy accent, "Everything is under the empress's command. There are some things that need to be paid attention to in Korea, and there are also some special diets."

As she said that, Jin Zhen'er signaled her maids to bring a few bowls of soup, and introduced:
"This is our Koryo country's unique ginseng chicken soup. It is made with Korean ginseng and young chicken. You can taste it."

As the maids lifted the lid, a scent filled the air. It was indeed top-grade chicken soup.

Xia Keyu looked at everything in front of him calmly, seeing a glint of complacency in Concubine Ning Guifei's eyes, and began to taste the soup.

Her mind was spinning rapidly, if Ning Guifei wanted to use Jin Zhener's hand to get rid of the fetus in Situ Guiren's womb, this was the best time.

Besides, maybe he could also take the opportunity to stumble the queen.

It can be described as a good strategy to kill three birds with one stone.

Situ Guiren also greedily picked up the spoon, ready to start eating this ginseng chicken soup.

"Wait." Xia Keyu said lightly.

Sure enough, as she spoke, Concubine Ning Gui looked at Xia Keyu with a poisoned gaze, as if she was afraid that Xia Keyu would spoil her good deed.

Her attitude further confirmed Xia Keyu's guess.

Seeing this, the empress asked with concern: "Ke Yu, what's the matter? Is this chicken soup not to your liking?"

Xia Keyu shook his head, then scooped up the chicken soup a few times, looked at Situ Guiren on the opposite side and said, "I feel that there may be something in this chicken soup that is not suitable for pregnant women."

As soon as these words came out, Situ Guiren was so frightened that he threw the spoon on the table and dared not speak again.

Seeing this, the empress's eyes froze, and she said in a deep voice, "Tell the imperial physician to see you."
