Chapter 018 No Negotiation
Li Tingting was stunned.
She just wanted to get away with it and didn't think about such details.
"It's clear at a glance. According to what Miss Li said and the stains on her back, it's clear who is lying." Xia Xue spread her hands.
The maid looked at Xia Xue with gratitude, as if she couldn't wait to kowtow to her.
Concubine Rong's face looked very ugly.
Prince Lu quickly spoke.
"It's all a small matter, it's all a small matter, why bother about it, it's all because of the ignorant maids in my house who disturbed the emperor and the queen's interest, it's a sin, a sin."
"Your Highness, this is no small matter. Miss Li just bullied the king!" Xia Xue smiled.
Li Tingting's face turned pale instantly, and she knelt down hurriedly, "Your Majesty, please forgive me, Your Majesty, please forgive me, I really didn't pay attention to these details just now, I just thought that the soup brought by the maid had wet my clothes, and I was in a hurry and ignored my own mistakes."
"So, we can see that Miss Li is a normal person. When something happens, she first looks for other people's problems instead of looking at herself."
What this means is that you, Li Tingting, have bad character and poor family education.
"Madam Chu, are you questioning my Li family's education?" Concubine Rong spoke slowly.
Concubine Rong is the troublemaker. The topic was changed perfectly.
"Of course I dare not. It is inappropriate to discuss family education at this time. We are discussing deceiving the emperor."
Xia Xue said it lightly, but it made Rong Fei so angry that her teeth itched. If the occasion wasn't wrong, she would really have slapped him.
But it doesn't matter, a trickle of water will go a long way, and there will be plenty of places to clean up your place in the future.
Yang Junyi laughed out loud, "Today is the prince's big day, all sins will be forgiven."
The dog emperor is good at doing favors.
It’s better not to pursue the matter. Then I’ll kick Li Tingting again. Anyway, I won’t pursue the matter.
Chu Zhenxuan seemed to know that Xia Xue was going to act up again, and he frowned and glared at her.
Xia Xue pouted and didn't act rashly again.
The little episode passed quickly. Li Tingting looked at Xia Xue angrily and went to the back room to change clothes.
The emperor, Concubine Rong, and Chu Zhenxuan went to the front hall.
Xia Xue always felt that something was wrong.
Logically speaking, although Li Tingting was domineering, she always pretended to be gentle and weak in front of others, so there was no need for her to make things difficult for a maid.
Why did he deliberately pick on that maid?
Also, that maid just looked at Ningxiang three times!
Xia Xue felt something was wrong and asked Xia Chun to find the maid again.
Under questioning, the maid admitted that she and Ningxiang were from the same hometown!
"Ningxiang asked you to do something, and you refused, right?"
The maid looked at Xia Xue in shock.
"What do you want me to do?"
The maid lowered her eyes and spoke slowly.
Ningxiang, in the name of the old lady, said that she was afraid that the Prime Minister would drink too much today, so she gave him some sobering medicine in advance and mixed it into his wine.
Maybe that's what the old lady meant.
Xia Xue thought about the old lady's various behaviors in the morning and suddenly felt that it was possible.
"Do you have the medicine she gave you?"
The maid shook her head. "She handed it to me, and I smelled it. I thought it was not a hangover cure, so I gave it back to her."
"How did you get the medicine?"
The maid passed it around.
Xia Xue smelled it.
What a familiar taste!
It’s all her fault for not studying pharmacology well, otherwise she would be able to identify it by just smelling it.
In desperation, Xia Xue summoned Bibi with her consciousness.
[Xia Xue: Bibi, can you tell what kind of medicine is on her hand? ]
Bibi yawned.
【Bibi: 50 points are required.】
【Xia Xue: Go ahead and knock. 】
As the points decreased, a few words appeared on it: X欢草.
Depend on!
Li Tingting is really going crazy about men!
Finally, the maid told Xia Xue that Ningxiang was in Prince Lu's mansion and had a fellow villager.
The banquet started soon.
Prince Lu and the Princess invited the guests to take their seats. According to Chu Zhenxuan's official position, Xia Xue also took advantage of the situation and sat very close to the front.
Because the mistress of the Li family was there, Li Tingting sat opposite Xia Xue.
The banquet began with a song and dance.
Xia Xue watched with great interest.
But not far away, there was always a burning gaze staring at her.
Xia Xue took a sip of the fruit wine on the table without caring.
Should I tell Chu Zhenxuan?
Chu Zhenxuan was stunned for a moment. What bad thing had this girl done again?
Forget it. Anyway, let Li Tingting do the math. He won't suffer any loss. Maybe he may not be willing for the sake of appearance, but he will be happy inside.
Chu Zhenxuan frowned.
If this plan succeeds, Li Tingting will come in and annoy me every day.
Can't draw it.
However, exposing Li Tingting would drag the old lady into it. Even though the old lady was quite annoying, it was still the Chu family to the outside world.
These contradictions among the people cannot be made a laughing stock for outsiders.
Chu Zhenxuan curled the corner of his mouth imperceptibly. This girl still has a sense of the overall situation.
It’s just that I haven’t heard her voice all day today, so how come I can hear it again now?
I think I encountered the same situation last time in the palace?
At this time, the singing and dancing came to an end, and the servants began to serve the meal.
A variety of exquisite dishes and delicate snacks are served throughout.
At this time, Concubine Rong looked down, then leaned over to Yang Junyi's ear and whispered.
Concubine Rong said that she wanted to take advantage of the prince's good fortune to ask for a marriage for her sister.
The emperor said, "Don't make random comments. Today people have made their points very clear."
Rong Fei said that she just said it casually in the morning. If you ask it yourself, the result will be different.
The emperor said, okay, I will ask.
Afterwards, Xia Xue was named by the emperor.
Xia Xue nodded in greeting.
"Are you willing to let Miss Li Tingting enter your Chu family?" asked the emperor.
"Of course I don't want to." Xia Xue replied.
Concubine Rong was stunned first.
She really didn't expect that Xia Xue, this woman, was so ignorant that she actually rejected the emperor and her face in front of so many people.
Yang Junyi also found it a little unbelievable.
His ministers responded to his questions by thanking the emperor for his kindness and hastening to express their gratitude, but this woman refused so straightforwardly.
Yang Junyi: +2.
It became "2"? It's really masochistic.
Chu Zhenxuan didn't say anything either, with a faint smile in his eyes.
Let Concubine Rong be offended, it’s not the first time anyway.
Fortunately, the old lady was asleep, otherwise she would have climbed up the stairs happily.
Chu Zhenxuan glanced at Xia Xue from the side.
Mother is asleep? What did this girl do?
No wonder my mother hasn’t shown up yet even though she said she would come this morning.
Chu Zhenxuan: +30.
Yang Junyi chuckled a few times and took Rong Fei's hand. "I know that my beloved concubine loves my sister very much, but today is the prince's big day, so naturally we have to go along with the happy mood. The mistress of the Chu family is unwilling, so of course I can't force her."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Yang Junyi: You don’t know what’s good for you and yet you are so righteous!!!
Yang Junyi: +2+2+2.
Looking at Chu Zhenxuan’s 30 and then looking at Yang Junyi’s 2, I really feel bad.
Thinking of Bibi's words, the base is large, so it depends on the favorability value.
You can't seduce him, can you?
Seduce whom?
