The useless daughter-in-law is going to turn the world upside down

Chapter 448

In Qiankun Hall, as usual, men and women share different seats in the same hall.The male and female seats are divided into east and west sides and sit opposite each other.

Almost all the guests have arrived, only those big names are missing.

The fifth prince and several underage princes had already taken their seats, the tenth prince stayed beside Shangguan Ruoli as usual, and the elder sister-in-law talked about what she thought was interesting.

Of course, although he is only four years old, he also knows the basic etiquette. He does not speak loudly, but he does not appear petty in a low voice.

This made Shangguan Ruoli like him even more, such a beautiful and sensible child is really pleasing.

Dongming Ziyu and several officials came in, and saw the tenth prince sitting beside Shangguan Ruoli, obediently eating snacks.Shangguan Ruoli looked at him with gentle eyes, peeled the grape skins for him, and even fed them into the little guy's mouth!

Dongming Ziyu suddenly felt sore in his heart, and had an urge to rush over to pick up the little thing and throw it out of the hall.

This kind of tenderness should belong to him!
The grapes she peeled should only be fed to him!
"His Royal Highness King Xuan is here!" Following the eunuch's chanting, everyone stood up and saluted.

"Exemption." Dongming Ziyu said two words indifferently, glanced at the tenth prince's little bun in warning, and then walked towards his position.

The tenth prince blinked his beautiful big eyes, leaned into Shangguan Ruoli's ear and whispered, "Brother Dahuang seems to be upset."

Shangguan Ruoli raised his eyebrows, "How did you see that?"

If it wasn't someone who had been with Dongming Ziyu for many years, it would be difficult to discern the change of expression from his iceberg face.

The tenth prince pouted and thought about it seriously, and said: "I don't know, I feel."

Shangguan Ruoli scratched his little nose with a smile, "Little guy, you still know the feeling."

The tenth prince blushed, a little ashamed.

Concubine Li next to her smiled and said, "The tenth prince and the first emperor's wife hit it off very well."

Shangguan Ruoli said solemnly: "Because I am beautiful, kind, and virtuous."

Uh!The smile on Princess Li's lips froze.

People around who heard Shangguan Ruoli's words also had weird expressions for a moment.

The tenth prince was quite cooperative, nodded solemnly, and said, "Yes, the elder sister-in-law is a fairy sister."

Shangguan Ruoli touched the corner of his head with a smile, and said: "Yes, children are the most discerning."

Well, as long as you like it.People around turned their faces away, unable to look directly.

Shangguan Ruoli felt someone was looking at her from the opposite side, looked up and saw Dongming Ziyu was looking at her, with little smiles in his eyes.

Obviously, he has high internal strength, because he heard her and Xiao Baozi compliment each other.

Shangguan Ruoli blinked at him, and there was a flash of pampering and helplessness in his eyes.

At this time, Eunuch Zheng's voice came: "The emperor is here! The empress is here! His highness the crown prince is here, his highness is King Li and King Qin! The imperial concubine Rou is here..."

Everyone stood up, knelt down and bowed to welcome the holy driver.

Surrounded by concubines and attendants, the emperor climbed up the jade steps and sat on the dragon chair.

The Empress and Concubine Rou were separated on the left and right, sitting next to the Emperor.

The emperor raised his hand slightly, "Excuse me, take your seat."

Everyone thanked the emperor for his kindness, got up, and went back to their seats.

The emperor said with a faint smile: "Today's Mid-Autumn Festival, all the nobles gathered together to enjoy the moon and drink tea together. I am very happy..."

The emperor said an opening remark, and then he raised his glass to have fun with everyone.

The queen's beautiful eyebrows frowned. In the past, the emperor asked her to say a few words after finishing his toast. Why did he forget her today?

Or did the emperor deliberately skip this procedure?
Most of His Highness were also aware of this problem, and looked at the Queen intentionally or unintentionally.

The queen and the prince are almost empty now. If the emperor doesn't even give the queen the dignity on this stage, does it mean something?
No matter what everyone thinks in their hearts, they are happy on the surface.

After three cups of congratulatory wine, Shao Yue started, and the dancers of the two teams danced their sleeves like fairies descending to the earth.

The prince stood up, raised his glass and said to the emperor: "Congratulations to your father on your health, long live, long live."

A strange color flashed in the emperor's eyes, he raised his glass and said with a smile: "The prince has a heart."

He put the wine glass to his lips and dipped it, but didn't drink it.

The queen saw it, and gently persuaded: "The emperor's body is just right, don't drink too much wine."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to pick up the spoon, filled half a bowl of soup for the emperor, and handed it to the emperor with both hands, "Your Majesty, drink some soup to relieve the alcohol, so as not to hurt your stomach."

The emperor stretched out his hand, but he didn't take the bowl, he directly grabbed her wrist, his eyes full of terror.

"Your majesty, what are you doing?" The queen's face turned pale, she let go of her hand, and all the soup was spilled on the table.

Concubine Rou exclaimed, and took a handkerchief to wipe off the splashed soup on the emperor's body, "Oh, what's the matter? Is the emperor scalded?"

The emperor pushed Concubine Rou away with one hand, and grabbed the queen's hand with the other, as if if he let go, the queen would turn into a demon and escape.

All the ministers were astonished, staring wide-eyed for no reason.

The music stopped, and the dancers ran out in fright.

There was silence in the hall for a while, and everyone looked at the emperor and queen as if they had been immobilized.

The queen's face was as white as paper, her eyes were full of fear, and she asked with trembling lips: "Emperor, Your Majesty, what are you doing? You hurt my concubine."

"Hehe, what did the empress say I want to do?" The emperor sneered, and with force on his hand, he turned the empress's hand upwards, and said in a deep voice, "Imperial doctor!"

The imperial doctor hurriedly bowed and ran over, and was about to kneel down to salute, but was stopped by the emperor, "Come here! Take a look at what's inside!"

The imperial doctor hurriedly stepped forward, "Your Majesty..."

Where are you looking?So much stuff on the table.

Seeing his bewildered look, the emperor said: "Idiot, check the queen's armor cover! I just saw something in her armor cover fell into my soup bowl."

The queen closed her eyes in despair, "Your Majesty, I am wronged!"

Eunuch Zheng hurried forward, took off the queen's two armor sets, and handed them to the imperial doctor.

The imperial doctor took the armor cover with a handkerchief, examined it carefully, and reported: "Your Majesty, there is an organ on the empress' armor cover, and there is a highly poisonous crane crest hidden inside, and the throat is sealed with blood."

"The concubine was wronged. The concubine didn't know about it. The servants brought it over, but the concubine just chose a set at random. Please look into it!" The queen knelt on the ground with tears streaming down her face.

The prince hurriedly stepped forward, knelt down in the tunnel and said: "Father, please be careful, the queen mother must not know about it, and someone must be obstructing it!"

Concubine Rou also said softly: "Yes, Your Majesty, the matter is very important, we still need to be careful, and don't wrong the queen."

King Li frowned, "Father, can you let the imperial doctor see if there is any poison in the soup bowl?"

The queen breathed a sigh of relief, she sprinkled the medicine powder into the soup bowl, and then spilled the soup bowl, it should not have melted yet.

And the soup had seeped into the tablecloth, so it might not be so easy to check.
