food queen

Chapter 379 Ten boards! (3)
"The servant was negligent and forgot to order to go down." Pingguo'er hurriedly knelt down to plead guilty, "I beg your empress to forgive me."

"Neglected?" Han Qian smiled lightly, "You can even neglect my diet, what else do you not neglect?"

"Slaves should die." Pingguo hurriedly fell on the ground and touched his forehead to the ground.

"It's fine if you die. I have raised you for so many years, not to kill you." Han Qian glanced at Pingguo'er coldly, then turned to tell Sun Defu, "Deduct her half-year monthly silver rice, pull it down, and give it to me." Ben Gong played ten boards to give her a long memory."

"Yes." Sun Defu was already in a cold sweat. After listening to the Queen Mother's order, he dared not neglect, waved his hand outside, called two little eunuchs in, and took Pingguo out to beat the board.

All the people sitting here didn't understand what was going on, especially Gu Ningshuang, who always thought that Pingguoer was the queen's number one confidant, and never thought that she would be reprimanded and slapped by the queen in front of so many people.

For a long time, as a queen, Han Qian has not established a majestic image in the hearts of everyone. Everyone treats her like a child, thinking that the emperor spoils her, and makes plans for her everywhere, even taking care of food, drink and toilet for her. .More people thought that the reason why Han Qian was able to enter the Central Palace was entirely because of the military power of the Han family, because of the plans of the Eldest Princess, and because her unparalleled appearance was liked by the emperor.

Today, it was the first time for everyone to see her showing off her power, and she was also the closest person to her.For a moment, everyone was dumbfounded.Even Wei Xiyue was a little at a loss, turned her head to look at Han Jin, and suddenly thought of what Han Jin said to herself on the way here: My aunt is not an easy person to get along with.

Han Jin just sat there quietly, looking at his nose and heart, as quiet as a porcelain doll.

Not long after, the sound of boards being beaten and Apple's moaning in pain came from outside, and the complexions of the ladies and ladies in the room suddenly changed—everyone was pampered at home and had never heard a serious word , where did you hear this?
Han Qian glanced at the crowd as if nothing had happened, and asked with a smile: "I was begging for a clever banquet yesterday, and I drank a few more glasses. I didn't accompany you to the end. I don't know what interesting things I missed?" , Han Qian's eyes just fell on Su Lan's body.

Su Lan hurriedly stood up and replied: "Go back to Empress Empress. After Your Majesty and Your Majesty left the banquet, everyone dispersed. Su Lan also went back to Sleeping Moon Pavilion early to rest because of too much alcohol. I just don't know if there are other people. What's interesting?" After speaking, Su Lan turned to look at Wei Xiyue opposite.

Wei Xiyue forced a smile, and replied: "Yesterday, I went fishing with Sister Xiao and Sister Yao. Sister Xiao and Sister Yao were doing poem couplets in the water pavilion, and I was dizzy listening to them. and fell asleep."

"He actually fell asleep in the water pavilion." Han Qian sighed and shook his head, "Aren't you afraid of catching a cold?"

Wei Xiyue hurriedly replied: "Fortunately, Sister Xiao brought a cloak, otherwise there would be a lot of moisture in the night, and the cold wind would blow, and you would definitely catch a cold."

"Yesterday, I only heard those talented scholars from the Imperial Academy reciting poems and composing Fu, but I forgot that you guys are also capable." Han Qian smiled lightly.

Wei Xiyue smiled and said, "Actually, the talents of Sister Xiao and Sister Yao are not inferior to those of the Hanlin Academy."

Han Qian glanced at Xiao Lianqing and Yao Pingting, then nodded with a chuckle, "The daughter of a scholarly family, who has been enriched by poetry and books since childhood, is naturally better than those humble scholars."

The two girls from Xiao Yao hurriedly got up, and were deeply blessed: "The empress's concubine praises it absurdly, and the minister's daughter is ashamed."

"How about your couplets last night? Tell us, although I don't have the talent to judge and criticize you, but there are many talented girls here, so it's good for everyone to listen to it together."

Xiao Lianqing hurriedly bowed and said: "Last night, the ministers and daughters had a few glasses of wine, it was just a random joke, it is really difficult to be elegant. Please forgive me."

"Even if it's just for fun, you should set up a high ground, right?" Han Qian asked with a smile, "You two are modest and refuse to say, Xiyue should know?"

"I just found out early this morning that it was Sister Yao who won Sister Xiao, and I don't know what the two of them gambled for. The empress wants to make decisions for Xiyue, and Sister Yao must not forget me when she gets the benefits."

Han Qian smiled and said: "You said that. If you get benefits, everyone should share, and you can't be the only one to share."

Wei Xiyue smiled and asked, "Your Majesty, do you still lack this advantage?"

"It's a good thing, so it's not too much." Han Qian smiled, and the atmosphere in the hall eased a lot.

Xiao Lianqing hurriedly got up and said with a smile: "I originally lost a piece of piano music to sister Yao. If the empress does not dislike it, Lianqing is willing to make a fool of herself."

"You guys are talking about qin music, but Miss Gu's song last night surprised Ben Gong." Han Qian said with a smile, "Even His Majesty praised it."

Gu Ningshuang has been in a bad mood, and the matter of Wang Yunling is still in her heart. Seeing Su Lan's arrogant appearance today added another layer of depression. Later, Han Qian's seizures made her heart startled again. At this moment, she was at a loss and didn't know what to do, when she suddenly heard the empress mentioning herself, she stood up in a daze, bowed and said, "Ningshuang is panicked."

"You don't have to underestimate yourself, your piano is very good." Han Qian glanced at Yao Pingting with a light smile, and asked again: "I just don't know if Miss Xiao is interested in comparing with Miss Gu, and let Bengong open it up." vision."

Xiao Lianqing was blessed, and replied: "Lianqing, but according to the empress's orders."

"Well, good." Han Qian nodded with a smile, then asked Gu Ningshuang, "Miss Gu, how about you?"

"Ningshuang obeys the queen's arrangement in everything." Gu Ningshuang hurriedly replied.

Han Qian smiled and nodded: "Very well, I heard that Princess Su's piano skills are also very superb, why don't you join in the fun and join Miss Gu and Miss Xiao?"

Su Lan was dissatisfied with Gu Ningshuang's showing off at the begging banquet last night, when she suddenly heard the empress talking about herself, she suddenly regained her spirits, got up and responded: "Su Lan respectfully obeys the empress's order."

Han Qian nodded and smiled lightly, "This evening, I will hold a banquet at Qushui Liushang. No one here today can shirk." After speaking, she smiled again, and added, "I will strongly invite Your Majesty Participate, you three must be well prepared!"

Everyone hurriedly stood up, saying yes to Fushen.

"I'm tired at the moment, you all should leave." After Han Qian finished speaking, she stood up and went to the back.

A group of ladies in the hall each dragged their acquaintances to whisper.

Su Lan cast a cold glance at Gu Ningshuang, turned around and left.
