"I didn't see anything!"
Nan Shaotian saw this sentence in her eyes.
It's really like trying to cover up one's own mistake.
Nan Shaotian was amused by her funny look. He reached out and couldn't help but pinch her pink face.
When the two men left the kitchen, the palace maids put the cakes on a plate and sent them into the palace.
"This pastry goes best with jasmine tea. Your Majesty, please try it."
Bei Yutang handed the tea to him, and Nan Shaotian took a sip and said, "Not bad, not bad."
After hearing his praise, Bei Yutang's beautiful phoenix eyes suddenly lit up, and her charming face immediately revealed a smug expression of "I am very good".
Nan Shaotian stayed in Chenxiao Palace for the entire morning. If no minister had asked to see him, he would probably have stayed in Chenxiao Palace the entire day.
After Nan Shaotian left, Bei Yutang's eyes fell on the pastries on the table.
"Jinchai, send these cakes to the Qianqing Palace. Oh, and also send a packet of jasmine tea. Tell the Qianqing Palace's chief steward that they must be eaten together for the best taste."
"yes."
All the concubines knew about Jinchai's affair with the food box in the Qing Palace. Especially when they learned that the box of pastries was made by the Southern Emperor and the Imperial Concubine, the whole harem was filled with jealousy.
They knew that Concubine Chen was favored, but recently they discovered that she was even more favored.
Hanxuan Hall
After Xia Yuwei heard the news, there were banging sounds and the sound of porcelain breaking in the hall. The palace maids serving in the hall were frightened and shrank their necks, not daring to look at her.
The Empress's appearance at this moment was something they had never seen before. Her fierce and resentful eyes completely destroyed the cold and indifferent image she had always maintained.
This was the first time that the palace maids discovered that the master they served could become so terrifying, so terrifying that they felt unfamiliar and terrifying.
Xia He, a personal maidservant, stepped forward and advised, "Your Majesty, don't be angry. It's not worth it to ruin your health. Don't look down on her now. After the Bei family is destroyed, she will be nothing."
Seeing that the Empress had listened, Xia He continued, "Now everyone in the harem wishes her death. Given Concubine De's jealousy and Concubine Shu's methods, she will definitely not have an easy time."
"My Lady, just wait and see. They'll make their move soon. All you have to do is sit back and watch the show."
Xia Yuwei clenched the handkerchief in her hand and said, "No, I want to see her in trouble right away."
In the other three concubines' palaces, almost the same drama was being played out, the only difference was that they did not smash things hysterically.
Jingren Palace
Shufei was listening to the report from her subordinates. When she heard that Guifei and Southern Emperor were making pastries together, she stopped drinking tea, but quickly returned to normal.
If the jealousy in her eyes was not so strong, she would seem to have some of Concubine Liang's indifference to the world.
After hearing this, Concubine Shu's expression was very calm, so calm that it was difficult to understand.
"When did Concubine Chen become so powerful?"
Nan Shaotian used to dote on Bei Yutang, but that doting was mostly material. Once upon a time, they had this closeness.
They all knew in their hearts that the emperor favored her only because of the Bei family army and because she had a father and brother who were good at fighting.
When the war around them subsided, they all knew that Bei Yutang's good days were coming to an end.
