Ning Yuxi looked up and saw that Concubine Rong was wearing a sky-blue palace dress that made her skin look as white as snow. Her appearance with a hint of exotic style was charming and attractive. Her every frown and smile was full of charm, which made people forget the world.
She frowned slightly. She felt uncomfortable listening to Concubine Rong's words. It seemed like this was the first time she met her.
"You are being too modest, Concubine Rong. Looking at the harem, your appearance is definitely one of the best. Why are you being so modest?"
Rong Fei gently stroked her hair and said with envy, "Even if you are beautiful, it is useless if the emperor doesn't like you. How can you compare to how much love and attention the emperor has for Sister Yi Fei."
Ning Yuxi smiled and said, "Sister, you must not say this. After all, the emperor has been to your palace quite a few times during this period."
"The Emperor comes here so often because it was inconvenient for you to serve him during your pregnancy. Now that you are out of confinement, I'm afraid the Emperor will forget about us."
Hearing this, Ning Yuxi sneered in her heart. This was the first time they met today, and he was already trying to create hatred for her. What kind of hatred and grudge was that?
After thinking about it, she felt that it was probably because of the marriage. Concubine Rong came to Dajin and specifically asked to marry her brother, but Princess Yincheng intercepted her and the emperor even issued an edict to grant the marriage.
She was probably unhappy about this, so she came to find fault with her.
After figuring out the whole thing, Ning Yuxi was too lazy to pay attention to her. Life was so beautiful, why should she waste her energy on such meaningless things? Besides, today was a good day for her two children, and she didn't want irrelevant people to ruin her good mood.
She said with a fake smile, "Whether the Emperor has forgotten you or not is his business. It is also his freedom to go to whomever he wants. Why does Concubine Rong have to drag this into my hands?"
Rong Fei seemed to have not expected that she would suddenly say it so bluntly. She was surprised for a moment, and then she said with a face full of self-blame: "Sister, you misunderstood. This is not what I meant.
I was just envious of you. Oh, it's all my fault for making you so angry. Please punish me, I have no complaints."
As she spoke, she suddenly stood up and apologized to Ning Yuxi with an uneasy look.
Her movement attracted the attention of many people in the seats behind her.
Ning Yuxi frowned slightly, feeling very unhappy, but she still smiled and said, "First of all, I don't take this matter to heart, so why should I be angry?
Secondly, Concubine Rong, you always say that you are wrong and apologize to me in a panic, but you and I are both concubines, there is no difference between high and low. Aren’t you sincerely trying to make people think that I am domineering and bully my fellow concubines at will?
Furthermore, all the ministers of the imperial clan are here today. If you act like this, you will be laughed at. The emperor values his reputation the most. If the emperor knew about this, how would he punish you? "
Ning Yuxi had a decent smile on her face, and her eyes looked straight at Rong Fei who was standing in front of her, as if she could see through people's hearts.
Rong Fei's intentions were exposed by her. A moment of unnaturalness flashed across her face, but she quickly adjusted her composure and said with a look of grievance: "Your Majesty, I absolutely did not mean that. I was just afraid of angering Your Majesty..."
Before she could continue her mischief, Ning Yuxi interrupted her: "Then don't be afraid, I'm not angry. Okay, please go back to your seat, the banquet is about to begin."
After saying that, Ning Yuxi stopped looking at her and picked up the tea beside her and started sipping it.
Rong Fei was left standing there awkwardly.
"Pfft!" Concubine Xin on the side couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Ever since Concubine Rong entered the palace, she has been trying to lure the emperor to her side, always setting traps for him with an innocent look on her face. She has suffered losses from her many times, and now she is very happy to see her being speechless after being confronted by others.
She originally hated Concubine Yi, and now that Concubine Yi gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl, and their father was conferred a title by the emperor, she hated her even more. But now she decided to hate her a little less.
Jingpin couldn't help but say, "Empress Rong, the banquet is about to begin. You're blocking the way by standing there."
After she finished speaking, she couldn't help but cover her lips with a handkerchief and laughed.
After she gave birth to the fourth prince, the emperor was not very fond of him because he was born on the Ghost Festival, which was unlucky. He seldom visited her. Later, when the emperor finally visited her once, he was kidnapped by Concubine Rong. How could she not be angry?
Although she also hated Concubine Yi, she also hated Concubine Rong. Now it was really refreshing to see these two annoying people fighting each other.
Rong Fei almost lost her composure. After a moment of composure, she turned to Jing Fei and said with a half-smile, "Don't worry about it, Jing Fei. When you have time, you should take care of your Fourth Prince. The Emperor hasn't even visited him once in such a long time."
After saying that, she hummed softly and returned to her seat maintaining her elegant demeanor.
Jingpin's face darkened instantly after she was exposed. Just as she was about to open her mouth to retort, she heard the eunuch's announcement from outside: "The Empress Dowager has arrived, the Empress has arrived."
She almost choked to death because of a breath stuck in her throat, but she could only endure it and go to greet the Queen Mother and the Empress.
Ning Yuxi stood up and saluted along with everyone else. Yu Guangzhong suddenly saw a nanny following behind the empress dowager, holding a delicate little boy in her arms.
She looked straight ahead, and from this position she could only see the little boy's profile, but she still recognized him; it was her Cheng Zhao.
I haven't seen him for almost ten months. The baby who was still in swaddling clothes has grown a lot. He is now more than one year and four months old, almost five months old.
The little guy was very well-behaved. He didn't move around in the wet nurse's arms. He was not at all shy when he suddenly saw so many strangers. His round eyes looked around curiously.
The little body was dressed in a soft brocade dress, which was very cute. The only flaw was that the little guy looked like his father, as if they were carved from the same mold, not like her at all. It seemed that she was just a porter.
Ning Yuxi's eyes were always on little Chengzhao until the empress dowager suddenly called her and she came back to her senses.
"Concubine Yi, today is the full moon banquet for the fifth prince and the fifth princess. Hurry and bring the two little ones to me for a good look. They are the first twins of the royal family."
Twins, a boy and a girl, are rare, and have never appeared in the royal family before. Her twins, a boy and a girl, are very rare.
Ning Yuxi hurriedly asked the wet nurse to bring Cheng Yao and Shu Xun over. The two little guys were probably tired from playing with Ning's father and mother, and were sleeping soundly at this moment.
The Queen Mother looked at the two children with a smile on her face, and her crow's feet became deeper from laughing.
