Jian Yang smiled but remained silent.
Jian Fei added, "Later I will have Yu Zhu go back to the palace to fetch some good tea for you, sister. Please don't refuse it."
"My sister is so thoughtful."
"I heard that you've been eating in the palace kitchen lately. It just so happens that the Emperor heard I love Huaiyang cuisine a few days ago, so he summoned a chef from Huaiyang. If you need him, I can lend him to you for a few days."
“Okay.” Jian Yang’s smile remained unchanged from beginning to end.
This left Jianfei somewhat frustrated.
She came here specifically to provoke her older sister.
Why is there absolutely no effect?
No way, if I don't infuriate Jian Yang today, I'll be doing this outfit a disservice!
She quickly glanced around the main hall, trying to find something else to criticize.
Suddenly, her gaze fell on the food box on the table.
As soon as she entered the room, she smelled a rich fragrance.
It must have been the food box that was emitting the odor.
"Speaking of this, I'm actually getting a little hungry. Yuzhu, go and get the food from the table for me."
Lianxia's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this.
These are the egg yolk pastries she didn't have time to take away!
Jian Yang wanted to stop her, but it was too late. Yu Zhu, who was quick and efficient, had already brought the food box to Jian Fei.
Forget it, just consider it as feeding the dog!
However, for chefs, the happiest thing is watching others eat the food they make.
So despite her rejection, Jian Yang still harbored a little bit of anticipation.
Jian Fei raised her delicate fingers, picked up a piece of egg yolk pastry, and carefully took a bite.
Then, her expression changed drastically, and she threw the egg yolk pastry into the food box like it was trash!
"Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey, this tastes awful."
Jian Yang's eyes widened immediately.
In her past life, she was a master in the kitchen for over a decade, and everyone who tasted her food praised it highly!
If she hadn't just tasted the box of egg yolk pastries, she would have almost believed Jian Fei's nonsense.
Jian Fei rinsed her mouth and then said earnestly, "Sister, your cooking skills are really terrible. You made such disgusting food. You deserve to be punished two hundred times."
“But sister, if you really like snacks, I will ask the Emperor to find you a chef. We don’t need to eat these.”
As they talked, Jian Fei noticed that Jian Yang's face was filled with gloom.
Oh ho, finally angered them!
Although she found the pastry delicious, she naturally had to criticize it harshly in order to annoy Jian Yang.
As long as I can make her angry, that's fine.
Then, Jian Fei became more and more enthusiastic as she spoke, while Jian Yang's face grew darker and darker.
For Jian Yang, it's fine for others to criticize her, but criticizing her cooking skills...
That would be absolutely unacceptable.
But Jian Fei, who was always courting death, kept crossing her bottom line.
It would be a miracle if she could hold back!
"Someone come here!"
Jian Yang slammed her hand on the table. "Consort Fei has committed insubordination, spoken rudely, and insulted the Empress. Slap her two hundred times!"
Jian Fei: "?"
When did she insult the Empress?
"Sister, is there some misunderstanding between us?"
She had been extremely restrained today, at most showing off the emperor's favor and taking the opportunity to belittle the cooks at Weiyang Palace.
How did it become insubordination and rude speech?
Jian Fei panicked when she saw several tall and burly eunuchs walking towards her!
"Empress! You have persecuted the concubines of the harem without cause. Aren't you afraid that the Emperor will punish you?"
Jian Yang gave a cold, enigmatic laugh: "Since you find my desserts so hard to swallow, then you'd better eat a slap! Give me a slap!"
Jianfei then realized where she had gone wrong!
But then, a barrage of slaps left her unable to think straight.
Yu Zhu took advantage of the chaos to run out and fetch reinforcements.
A moment later, the emperor arrived at Weiyang Palace.
By this time, the two hundred slaps had already been delivered.
Jian Fei was sitting on the ground, her head swollen and red like a pig's head, looking dazed.
She was completely stunned.
The emperor had no choice but to immediately order Yuzhu to help Jianfei back.
Upon seeing the emperor, Jian Yang couldn't help but speak sarcastically, "Your Majesty, you've come to rescue your beloved concubine so quickly? Sorry, I've already finished fighting."
The emperor gave her a reproachful look.
"Your Majesty, how can you punish Consort Fei like this?"
Jian Yang lifted her eyelids, stared coldly at him, and remained silent.
She suddenly felt a chill in her heart.
She worked hard to manage his harem and tried to reduce expenses to replenish the national treasury, but the scoundrel, in order to please his beloved concubine, gave her dozens of kilograms of gold jewelry.
Isn't this a direct slap in the face to her?
It's like an employee trying every possible way to save money for the boss, only to find that the boss is using the money to support a mistress!
Then they criticize the employees for not taking their work seriously!
Who wouldn't be angry in that situation?
“It’s understandable that Consort Fei is young and a bit spoiled, but she is still your own sister. As the Empress, you really shouldn’t have been so cruel to her.”
So what if she's my sister? Does being my sister give me the right to constantly provoke and humiliate her?
We're all experiencing life for the first time, so why should we tolerate someone with a foul mouth?
Jian Yang sneered and turned to walk towards the bedroom.
A moment later, she took out an exquisite brocade box and shoved it into the emperor's arms: "Your Majesty, whoever wants to be empress can be empress, I'm not going to be one!"
Zhou Jingzhi looked bewildered.
He opened the brocade box; it contained a phoenix seal.
Jian Yang is determined to resign this time!
To hell with the murderer, to hell with the queen!
She didn't want to care about any of it anymore.
She couldn't bear to live like this for even a day longer.
