Huan Yue entered the Linde Hall.
An official came to greet them.
Everyone was afraid of her, but the mooncakes were quite delicious.
The eunuch led Consort Huan forward, explaining in a low voice, "There was just an imperial decree to move Consort Huan's seat to the front."
Huan Yue was dumbfounded. Wouldn't it be better to just sit back and watch the show?
Don't help her up, she won't get up!
Di Baose and Guo Bing really couldn't help her. The seats for the two concubines were in the back. Although they could go to the front to accompany her, it wouldn't look very good.
Princess Yongmu didn't go either, but the two concubines could stay with her and keep her company.
There were many people in the hall. Some were looking at Princess Yongmu, while others were shocked to hear that He Yuzhi had been deposed!
And look at this Lady Huan, she's been killing people since she got up this morning?
Putting that aside, the fact that Consort Gui became Consort Shu shows that she had truly fallen out of favor.
So, who will be the next imperial concubine? Who wouldn't want to be an imperial concubine?
When everyone looked at Consort Huan's seat again, the feeling changed.
The sage naturally sits in the highest and most central position.
Previously, the Empress was to the left of the Emperor, and the Imperial Concubine was to the right. The Crown Prince was below the Empress.
Now, the Empress should still be to the left of the Sage, and the Crown Prince should sit next to the Empress.
The seat to the right of the emperor, which should belong to the imperial concubine, should no longer be occupied.
A seat was set up at a distance, in a position corresponding to the Crown Prince.
The Crown Princess went straight up from the middle to sit at the top!
Huan Yue sat there, one hand supporting his head, the other clutching his heart. His head ached, and his chest felt tight.
The palace maids around her were all tense.
The seats up there are really uncomfortable. At least a third of the people don't like her.
In fact, even if Huan Yue sat properly, chest tightness wouldn't affect his dignified demeanor.
The sage's platform is three feet high, while she is only one foot high beside it, slightly higher than the platform.
Looking at someone from the opposite side is like a student in the back row not being able to see the blackboard.
The Linde Hall is so large that you can't really see much in front of it, although the front row has a better view.
There were many elderly men and women in the front row, their eyes were sharp.
It's never as sharp as an X-ray. Huan Yue's various antics and exhaustion have left her numb, not an experienced driver. Her gaze can't kill anymore; otherwise, she could wipe out a whole group more efficiently.
Now, the point is, one must sit properly, after all, it's for the sake of the sage's reputation, and Huan Yue can at least meet this minimum requirement.
Besides, the table is placed here, and although it doesn't completely block the view underneath, it does block part of it.
Cuizhu watched the Empress for a long time before realizing that she was trying to slack off.
Although Huan Yue doesn't sleep in class, he has heard of some methods for doing so.
I'm comfortable with myself now, there's food and drink on the table, what others think doesn't matter at all.
The sage offered her a seat. Huan Yue had to make the most of this position.
Other people who come in feel uncomfortable when they see her!
However, he didn't dare to challenge them directly. Otherwise, it was hard to say who would suffer the first loss if they fought.
Huan Yue observed that the group still had some self-awareness.
Our ancestor has arrived.
Huan Yue came over and kowtowed to the ancestor.
The old ancestor held her hand happily.
Huan Yue noticed that Prince Yongning hadn't come over. She then complained to the old lady, "Prince Yongning is so adorable. I asked him to make the old lady happy, but he slacked off."
The old ancestor laughed and said, "Why are you bullying him?"
Huan Yue said, "All you do all day is think about how to bully people, right? Besides, I only bully him because he's cute. He's ugly, and he's despicable."
The ancestor watched as the Grand Princess of Chu came over to invite a scolding.
The Grand Princess of Chu was over seventy years old and of high seniority. Huan Yue, being a junior, should have been respected, but she simply squatted down in front of her ancestor and ignored her.
The people from the Song Prince's residence and the surrounding area only offered token greetings. After all, the Grand Princess of Chu was leading a group and didn't care about formalities.
If the princess of the Song royal family is too polite, then the Grand Princess of Chu should also return the courtesy.
Because of his high seniority, several of his granddaughters were specially granted the title of Princess by the Empress Dowager.
Now, everyone is watching the Grand Princess of Chu.
The one she was leading was the Bai family's precious daughter, the only legitimate granddaughter of the Grand Princess of Chu.
Her status was similar to that of Di Baose.
However, the Grand Princess of Chu relied on her status, and the Bai family was far more powerful than the Di family.
So this golden nugget is even more pampered than a royal princess.
We've all seen plenty of pampered children; whose child isn't pampered?
In short, the person corresponding to Miss Bai is quite strange.
The Grand Princess of Chu asked her grandmother, "What does Auntie think of her?"
The old woman spoke slowly and deliberately, pointing at her face: "At your age, you can't even tell the difference between fragrant and foul smells, so why are you still out here making a fool of yourself? Aren't you in poor health? Don't blame other people for your aches and pains. I don't believe you even if you say so. If you know you're sick, don't come out and humiliate people."
The eldest princess of Chu was so embarrassed that her face turned red.
The old ancestor didn't let her off the hook either: "You've been confused your whole life and you still think it's not enough? You want to take it to your coffin? Just keep being confused, I guarantee I'll make sure you take it to your coffin. You won't die from this illness, let's see if you die from your confusion."
The noble and precious Miss Bai shouted, "Don't go too far! You're the one who's going to die!"
The patriarch didn't argue with her, but instead reprimanded the Grand Princess of Chu: "This is the kind of granddaughter you raised. Look at all the people in my family, none of them dare to speak like that."
The Grand Princess of Chu quickly said, "Auntie, why bother arguing with a child?"
Huan Yue retorted, "He who steals a needle when young will steal gold when old. He's already a teenager and still a child, while other adults are already married and have children. They have to serve their mothers-in-law, husbands, and children."
Miss Bai's expression changed: "I'm not that kind of worthless person."
The onlookers remained silent.
The Grand Princess of Chu has truly raised her granddaughter well. Is she not going to marry?
