Chapter 51 Head-to-head confrontation

Upon hearing this, the eunuch was so frightened that he cried out in fear. He immediately picked up a plate of Baiyun cakes weighing more than ten kilograms and walked out.

Concubine Chen stood there, thinking about what Concubine Wen was going to do. Did Chunxiang lie, or did she do this on purpose?

Just in case, Concubine Chen carefully inspected all the places in the entire sacrificial ceremony, and told all the craftsmen involved in the construction that, except for the emperor, anyone who asked to change the layout of the hall or add anything should do so. Report to her first.

After settling in here, Concubine Chen took a few maids to go to Concubine Wen to find out more.

Funing Palace

Gu Luosheng was sitting at the table, and next to her was a bachelor from Shang Xuetang. The emperor had called her a few days ago to teach her how to speak and read. Gu Luosheng was already literate. In modern times, she had graduated with a master's degree and could also write. Well, she can even write oracle bones.

I never thought that after reading the book, I would have to act like I don't know anything.

The bachelor taught very seriously, and Gu Luosheng also pretended to be very serious.

In the blink of an eye, two hours passed. The bachelor gave Gu Luosheng some homework and would come over in the afternoon to continue teaching Gu Luosheng.

The little people have one head and two heads.

She suddenly felt that pretending to be a fool was very tiring.

After finally resting for a while, Gu Luosheng lay down on the table tiredly and fell asleep. The little man even made a snoring sound. Chunxiang happened to come over. When she heard the sound, she couldn't help laughing.

She gently shook Gu Luosheng and said, "Sixth Princess, get up and go to bed for a while. You may catch cold if you sleep here."

But Gu Luosheng didn't want to move as soon as she fell asleep. She reluctantly shook off Chunxiang's hand without opening her eyes, tilted her head in one direction and continued to sleep comfortably.

There was no other way, so Chunxiang had to bring a small quilt and put it on her body.

Here, Concubine Chen has arrived at the door of Concubine Wen's palace. At this time, Concubine Wen is sitting on the stool and drinking Tremella and Lotus Seed Soup. When she heard the announcement outside, she almost vomited from the soup she just drank. come out.

The maid Xiao Liu hurriedly handed over the handkerchief and patted Concubine Wen's back gently, "Mother, are you okay?"

"No...it's okay."

At this moment, Concubine Chen also walked in. Seeing the scene in front of her, she wondered, "What's wrong with my sister?"

Concubine Wen hurriedly stood up, pretending to be decent and bowed slightly, "I am attending Concubine Chen. My younger sister didn't know that my elder sister was coming. She didn't go out to greet her in time. I hope that my elder sister will atone for her sins."

"No need to be polite. I came to see you today because I wanted to ask you about the Baiyun Cake during the sacrificial ceremony. I was too busy earlier, so I asked Chunxiang to come over and tell you that the sacrificial ceremony is a ceremony to honor the gods in heaven, and you cannot show up. No sweet food is allowed, but today I went to the sacrificial ceremony to check, why is there Baiyun cake?" Concubine Chen's words were very direct.

After being stunned for a moment, Concubine Wen saw that Concubine Chen, who had always been introverted and timid, actually came to find her. She was so angry that her teeth itched, but she did not show it.

"I feel that... although the sacrificial ceremony is a ceremony to worship the gods, the most important thing is that it must be in line with the emperor's appetite. The emperor likes sweets, so I want to make a Baiyun cake alone and let the emperor taste it. "

Concubine Chen frowned, "Then why did you agree to Chunxiang in the first place? And why did you make the decision without consulting me?" Concubine Wen looked embarrassed, "Sister misunderstood, sister...sister asked Chunxiang to tell sister. Ah, didn’t Chunxiang tell her sister?”

"What?" Hearing this, Concubine Chen clenched her fingers tightly, her face was indeed expressionless.

Concubine Wen's eyes were looking around furtively, as if she was looking for something. At this moment, maid Xiao Liu came over with two cups of tea. She put a cup of tea on the plate in front of Concubine Wen. On the table, another cup was placed on the opposite side.

The two of them made eye contact, and then Concubine Wen turned into a cute face begging for forgiveness, "Sister Concubine Chen, I'm really sorry. It seems that Chunxiang forgot to tell you. I also want to give the emperor a surprise. I don't know what the consequences will be. With such serious consequences, please sister, please atone for your sins."

Concubine Chen knew Chunxiang's character best. She certainly didn't believe that Chunxiang would make such an omission. It seemed that this was Concubine Wen's trick.

"Tomorrow is the sacrificial ceremony. I don't want to make any mistakes. I also hope that my sister will not make such mistakes again. If I commit the dragon's wrath, who will bear the consequences?" Concubine Chen's face was expressionless, and she was not as timid as before. .

Concubine Wen's face changed. She smiled and said in a sinister manner, "Sister is really attentive. The careful sister is a little ashamed. Your Majesty asked my sister to organize the sacrificial ceremony with her. I didn't expect that my sister would be so caring. I would also like to Learn more from my sister.”

Hearing this, Concubine Chen did not look strange as Concubine Wen had imagined. Instead, she smiled slightly and said, "There is no need to learn from me, as long as my sister is obedient."

Just be obedient...

The implication of this sentence is that it would be nice if Concubine Wen stopped making petty tricks.

Immediately, Concubine Wen's expression dropped, and her stern gaze fell on Concubine Chen. She continued, "Thank you for your advice, sister. I will definitely perform well at the ceremony, and will also praise you well to your majesty. "

"No need, sister, please continue to drink porridge. I have something to do, so I'll leave first." After saying that, Concubine Chen turned around and was about to leave. In desperation, Concubine Wen stood in front of Concubine Chen and said, "Sister, why are you like this once here?" Come on, let’s sit down and have a cup of tea. I didn’t drink the tea that my sister made for my sister last time. I can’t stop drinking it this time.”

Concubine Chen turned her head and glanced at the tea on the table, picked it up and took a sip without warning, "It's quite delicious."

After taking a sip, the woman put it down.

Concubine Wen and the slave looked at each other with meaningful expressions on their faces.

"Do you need me to go to the sacrificial ceremony with my sister?" Concubine Wen changed the subject, but her eyes could no longer hide the joy.

"No need, I just came back from there, so I'm leaving first." After saying that, Concubine Chen turned around and left without looking back.

Keeping eyes on her leaving figure, Concubine Wen hugged her shoulders and revealed a hint of evil charm at the corner of her mouth, "This time, I don't see how she can participate in the sacrificial ceremony tomorrow. It is estimated that in a few hours, she will have diarrhea and collapse. Bar."

Xiao Liu pursed her lips and chuckled, "Don't worry, my dear, I've put in more laxative powder this time than last time. The effect of the medicine is very strong. I estimate that Concubine Chen will have to have diarrhea for several days."

"Hahahaha, hahahaha, great, you did a good job this time, and you will be rewarded." Concubine Wen was very satisfied. She always looked down on Concubine Chen. Why was her natal family's backstage lower than hers, but she was She is a noble concubine, and she is just an ordinary concubine?
