Like a peony blooming in the sun.
The beauty caressed her legs.
She was looking at him with tender eyes.
Reaching out toward him,
She cried, "Your Majesty..."
She looked so pitiful, and I felt even more sorry for her, as if she would break down and cry at the next moment.
Xuan Ling narrowed his eyes slightly, raised his thin lips slightly, and paused for only a moment.
He walked down the steps and towards her.
Before he got there, Wang Shurong came forward.
"Your Majesty, the Concubine Chen slapped me."
Xuan Ling pushed her away and walked straight to Sheng Xiyan.
Her pair of peach blossom eyes were shining, her eyebrows were slightly furrowed, her eyelashes were slightly drooping, and she was lightly biting her red lips. She was charming and beautiful beyond words.
"emperor...."
Sheng Xiyan whimpered, and Xuan Ling pursed her thin lips.
"My dear, why did you fall?"
Sheng Xiyan said in a delicate voice:
"I was greeting the princess when I fell. Your Majesty, please don't blame the princess. It has nothing to do with her. I just didn't stand firmly."
Wang Shuyi quickly knelt down,
"Your Majesty, it was Concubine Chen who hit me, and then I fell down. She framed me. Look at this on my face."
Xuan Ling said coldly:
"Shut up, I just saw you push the Concubine Chen down, and you still dare to quibble?
Since you are new to the palace, I will not pursue this matter. If you dare to confuse the superiors and the inferiors again in the future, please do not blame me for being ruthless."
"Your Majesty, I am wronged..."
"Go back to your bedroom and reflect on your actions. You don't need to attend the palace banquet."
Wang Shuyi stood up crying and left the banquet in embarrassment before she even had time to eat the crabs!
Xuan Ling looked down at the beauty. This woman was extremely beautiful even when she was dressed up casually. The layered dress did not hide her alluring body at all.
You just want her body.
You are useless!
With this thought, his fierce expression softened a little. He bowed slightly and stretched out his hand wearing the white jade ring in front of Sheng Xiyan.
"My dear, please get up."
Sheng Xiyan whimpered slightly and said aggrievedly:
"Your Majesty, I fell and injured my legs and waist, and I can't get up..."
Her lips were slightly pouting, as tender and juicy as roses.
Everyone in the audience is watching, eager to start a bet: Will the emperor hug her, or not?
The Empress Dowager was not angry, but watched the wonderful scene in front of her with a smile.
Because she remembered that she was once a favorite concubine and had shown her temper with the late emperor. At that time, she was the most favored by the emperor.
Empress Duan, however, was displeased, and wanted to go up and scold her, "You little bastard, why don't you get up quickly and wait for your husband to pick you up? Who the hell are you?"
Sheng Xiyan was like a poor and precious little kitten, licking its own fur.
She said in a delicate voice: "Your Majesty..."
I was about to burst into tears in the next second.
Xuan Ling sighed slightly, bent down, and picked her up skillfully.
She is soft and fragrant. I want to take a bite of her, nibble on her, many bites.
He tightened his hands on her clothes, feeling her warmth through the fabric.
Sheng Xiyan took the opportunity to put her arms around the emperor's neck and kissed him on the neck.
Xuan Ling's eyes brightened and his heart trembled violently.
He placed her in the front seat and stared at her for a moment, seemingly with deep meaning.
Then he returned to the throne and sat down.
He said majestically, "Let's get started."
There was a constant stream of palace maids coming to the imperial kitchen, serving crabs and many crab-themed dishes.
The Imperial Kitchen Manager introduced:
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Queen Mother,
The servants prepared steamed crab, crab with orange, braised crab, stir-fried crab with lotus root, drunken crab...
The drinks that go well with crabs include ginger wine, rice wine, plum wine..."
The Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction.
"Manager Liu has put a lot of effort into this. This year's crab feast is much more exquisite than last year's."
Xuan Ling said, "There is a reward."
The palace servants in the imperial kitchen knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, we thank you for your reward."
Empress Duan saw the rouge marks on the emperor's neck and took out a handkerchief to wipe them off.
Xuan Ling pushed her hand away coldly.
There were so many eyes staring at her, and the Empress Dowager was there too, so Empress Duan timidly withdrew her hand and forced a smile.
She felt so bitter that she cried. The emperor was still angry. She was just dealing with the concubine according to the palace rules. What was wrong with that?
The steaming crabs on the table make people drool, and there are eight crab dishes on the side.
Sheng Xiyan was already impatient. Today's mission was completed. After driving Wang Shuyi away, she could finally enjoy a feast.
After washing your hands, pick up eight tools to disassemble the crab.
After eating a crab, he thought of the emperor on the throne and looked up at him.
But the emperor did not look back at her like before. He did not have to do anything himself and was very free.
Holding a glass of wine in his hand, his eyes were deep and affectionate, as if he was looking at someone.
Sheng Xiyan looked in that direction.
Is he looking at her?
