The palace concubine is charming and chaotic: the country is still the same

Chapter 62 Long Night Walk (8)

Long Night Walk (8)

"Let her kneel outside for half an hour before coming to see me." Bai Xin said unhurriedly, then glanced at Concubine Yun Gui: "Let's continue drinking tea."

After Zi Lan got the order, she immediately went out of the room and passed Bai Xin's order to her. Xia Lanyue just smiled and knelt down in the hall.In fact, she understood that as long as she stepped into this Yongle Palace, Bai Xin would not easily spare her. Being punished to kneel in this palace is already commonplace, and she is used to kneeling.

For half an hour, Zilan stood aside and looked at Xia Lanyue, laughing from time to time, and after a while, half an hour passed, Xia Lanyue got up with numb legs, and entered the room together with Zilan.

When Bai Xin and Concubine Yungui saw Xia Lanyue coming in, their smiling faces turned cold.

"I heard from Zilan that you want to make tea from Butterfly Spring for the emperor." Bai Xin looked completely cold and unfamiliar to Xia Lanyue.

"Your Majesty is tired today, and my maidservant knows that the spring water of Butterfly Spring is the best among all the springs in the palace, so I took the liberty to come to Butterfly Spring, not intending to compete with your empress." Xia Lanyue also answered cautiously.

Bai Xin snorted and smiled, as if she knew it in her heart, she said mockingly: "You can pretend."

"The slaves are indeed for the emperor's well-being."

"Really? Then do you know how to make tea?" Concubine Yun Gui interrupted at this time, and before Xia Lanyue could reply, she continued: "To make tea, you must first serve tea, Zilan, go and serve a cup of hot tea Come."

Zilan understood, and immediately went down to fetch a cup of hot tea, and walked cautiously, for fear that the hot tea in the cup would spill on her hands if she was not careful.

"Beside the emperor, you must do your best in everything you do. If you want to get the first bucket of spring water from Butterfly Spring, you must first show your ability to serve tea." Concubine Yungui approached Xia Lanyue, saying each Words contain infinite danger.

Xia Lanyue understood what she meant, and reached out to take the tea in Zilan's hand, but Concubine Yungui said again: "I'm not asking you to hold it, but to hold it."

Concubine Yungui looked at Xia Lanyue with her hands in mid-air proudly, and said with a smile: "Don't you want to show your loyalty to the emperor? Don't you dare now?"

"If the servants hold this cup of tea, the empress will agree to give up the first bucket of spring water from Butterfly Spring?" Xia Lanyue looked at Bai Xin questioningly.

At this time, Bai Xin was sitting quietly, looking at her coldly with soft and charming eyes, never saying a word.

Xia Lanyue took a deep breath, stretched out her hands that were frozen in the air, and held the cup of tea in Zilan's hand, a scalding pain spread all over her body, and beads of sweat suddenly appeared on her forehead.

Concubine Yungui curled her lips and said sarcastically: "You are willing to fight for the emperor, but you still don't admit your ulterior motives. After this bitter plan is staged in Yongle Palace, do you want to go to the emperor to win sympathy? To be able to fly on a branch is just wishful thinking!"

Xia Lanyue gritted her teeth, endured the burning in her hands, and said word by word: "I don't have any."

Concubine Yun Gui scolded angrily: "How dare you speak hard!" After finishing speaking, the slap in her hand fell and slapped her face fiercely: "In this dynasty, there has never been a palace official who dared to have delusions about the emperor, you..."

"The emperor is here." A high voice sang, interrupting Concubine Yun Gui who was about to continue.

"Yongle Palace is really lively." Su Chen strode in, glanced at the situation in the palace with cold eyes, and finally set his eyes on Xia Lanyue.

"Your Majesty, she..." Concubine Yun Gui was about to speak, when Su Chen interrupted coldly: "She is someone close to me, no matter what happens, I will make my own decision."

Concubine Yun Gui noticed the obvious anger on Su Chen's body, and immediately knelt down in panic and said: "I am guilty."
