Empress is in the harem again

Chapter 78 Domineering
About half an hour passed, and the palace people in the palace came slowly.

The father-in-law from the Ministry of Rites breathed a sigh of relief when he saw him, but he didn't see the other people behind him for a long time.

He frowned, feeling a bad premonition in his heart.

"Concubine Xian, please wait a little longer, my empress is having a meal, she will come later."

A trace of strangeness flashed in Concubine Xian's eyes, but it quickly faded away, as if it had never appeared before, but it was just an illusion.

The maidservant's expression changed, and she glanced at Concubine Xian who was nothing unusual.

"My empress has been waiting here for a long time, could it be that Empress Li deliberately made things difficult?"

The palace man smiled at them inexplicably, coughed twice with a certain awkward expression, imitated Shen Xi's expression and said in a tone:
"If you are not willing to wait and everyone is willing to let you wait, you can't let people have an empty stomach. If you faint, you are responsible?"

"..."

The maidservant's eyes widened, her face was extremely distorted, she probably didn't expect Shen Xi to say such words.

The sharp tone blurted out, "Presumptuous!"

The palace servant immediately knelt down and kowtowed in panic, breathing heavily, "I ask the concubine Xian to make amends, this is not what the servant said, the servant is passing the message for my mother."

"you--"

Concubine Xian interrupted the next words of the maid behind her, and smiled slightly.

"It's okay, what Sister Li Concubine said is not unreasonable, if you talk on an empty stomach, it's really bad for your health, I just wait here, get up, I'm a good slave."

The harmless and calm look on his face made it impossible to see the emotions inside.

The palace man lowered his head and trembled a little. He almost collapsed when he first heard Shen Xi's words.

But she is her own master, even if she is given death, she can only bear it.

Passing on her words in every word and deed, I was actually terrified in my heart.

And the other father-in-law, who was like an invisible person, didn't even dare to say anything, he could only secretly admire Li Concubine's domineering, and waited peacefully.

I thought to myself, it seems that Concubine Li is a good target to curry favor with.

Shen Xi ate breakfast slowly, not worried that the waiting people would leave immediately.

On the contrary, Tao Hong and Cai Die were worried, and they kept urging Shen Xi to move.

Shen Xi was not affected by this, and ate carelessly.

Hearing the news reported by the palace man, he curled his lips.

"Didn't you say leave?"

"It's the maid beside me who made a few troubles."

Shen Xi smiled softly, and there was a gleam of interest in his eyes.

"Concubine Xian?"

She leaned against the back of the seat, tilted her head, stared at the fragrance that was still smoky, and her mind was a little deep.

The hall was so quiet, a clear and lazy voice came from somewhere.

"Yo, I'm really sorry, I'm a bit late in coming, so sister Xianfei won't blame me."

She smiled innocently, although there was a hint of embarrassment in her words.

But that pretty little face, which was as bright as a flower, didn't seem to want to apologize at all.

Concubine Xian's hands under her sleeves were slightly clenched, with a kind smile on her face.

"No problem."

With a soft and soft sentence, the waiting of a moment and hour was resolved.

Shen Xi's curved lips deepened. Sitting directly in front of her, leaning slightly on the handle, with the back of her hand resting on her head, she inadvertently saw the father-in-law who was bending over her, and raised her eyes.

Concubine Xian naturally followed her gaze to see it, and she was not in the mood to reminisce, so she just said it straight to the point.

"I'm here this time for the Mid-Autumn Festival. My sister has some unique tricks."
