Someone complained a little, and the queen said magnanimously: "Feng Yi has always been a little bit temperamental, so please be more tolerant of her."
"The Queen is spreading rumors about the birth of a child here so early in the morning. Aren't you afraid of getting your tongue bitten?" Su Chenyu came over. "Fei Cui informed me that the banquet would start at 9:00 p.m., but now it's 7:00 p.m. The time was advanced. Didn't the Queen send someone to inform me?"
Su Chenyu wore a goose yellow dress that day, and her outfit was quite simple, but it did not conceal her elegance at all. She emerged from the apricot blossom forest like a fairy. She was truly the most beautiful woman in Dayu, worthy of the title.
When the queen saw the aura surrounding Su Chenyu, she always felt that something was wrong, as if a pearl covered in dust had wiped off the dust and was now blooming with a unique brilliance.
When Feicui heard Su Chenyu mention her, she quickly knelt down and said, "Empress, I informed Fengyi at that time that the banquet would indeed start at chen time. I never said it would start at si time."
The Queen looked at Su Chenyu and said, "Feng Yi, it's too late, why bother the maid?"
"Your Majesty, do you think that the words of a palace maid are less trustworthy than those of a palace maid?" Su Chenyu went straight to the queen.
Looking at the expressionless Su Chenyu, the queen inexplicably felt the pressure: "Fei Cui has been with the concubine for many years and has always been careful. It is impossible for her to make such a mistake."
"Really?" Su Chenyu picked up Feicui from the ground and slammed her head hard on the low table in front of the queen. With a "bang", the queen saw blood on Feicui's forehead.
"Feng Yi, do you dare to commit a crime in front of the empress?"
Su Chenyu picked up Feicui again and knocked her head against the low table again, causing more blood to flow. Feicui couldn't break free and quickly shouted, "Please spare my life..."
"How can I be considered as a murderer? Feicui has a bad memory. Please help her think about when she told me that the banquet would be held when she informed me in Weiyang Palace!" Su Chenyu held Feicui in her hand and stared at the queen. "If she can't remember, I can only ask the queen to think about it again."
Su Chenyu's eyes were filled with murderous intent, which reminded the Queen of the scene in Weiyang Palace that day when she killed so many palace maids. She was terrified, "Initially, the banquet was scheduled to start at noon, but it was later moved forward. I didn't expect the palace maids to miss it and didn't notify you again. This time, it was the Queen's negligence!"
Su Chenyu let go of Feicui, and Feicui fell to the ground like a dead fish.
"Although I am magnanimous, I cannot tolerate others misunderstanding me. If such a situation happens again next time, I will not be polite."
Su Chenyu went back to her seat and sat down. Everyone watched what had just happened and felt a chill towards Su Chenyu. This Feng Yi was really unscrupulous.
Old Madam Baili narrowed her eyes and looked at Su Chenyu who was sitting in the upper seat. A dark light flashed in her eyes. This Feng Yi was not a quiet person. Once she entered the Baili family's house, she would have to be dealt with carefully.
"It's past noon, let's start the banquet." There was a hint of exasperation in the Queen's voice.
Throughout the meal, the Queen felt a little uncomfortable.
Although the table had been cleaned, she couldn't eat because she thought of the blood on it.
On the other hand, Su Chenyu had a huge appetite and finished all the food on the table.
After the meal, the most important thing in the Yulan Festival is to express love and blessings.
The queen prepared sachets for everyone attending the banquet. They came forward, took the sachets one by one and hung them around their waists, which was equivalent to accepting the blessings bestowed by the queen.
For the first few people, the queen personally hung sachets on them.
Soon it was Su Chenyu's turn. She looked at the apricot blossom pattern on the sachet and asked, "Why do I feel that the apricot blossoms on this sachet are not as exquisite as those on Rui'an's?"
The queen panicked, but she still kept smiling: "They are all made by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so what's the difference?"
Su Chenyu didn't say anything else. The Queen hung up the sachet and breathed a sigh of relief. This time, there shouldn't be any problems.
By the time everyone had put on the sachets, it was already late, and a palace servant came to report that Emperor Jing of Wei had brought his male relatives to the Imperial Garden to enjoy the flowers.
Hearing the palace maid's words, everyone's minds began to become active. Seeing this, the queen said, "The palace will not restrict you anymore. Go away and enjoy the flowers on your own."
