These ladies usually look dignified and elegant, but what they say is more piercing than a knife. Yang Shi was stunned by what you said and I had no chance to refute.
Afterwards, she was not too close to Yang's here, and she was surrounded by many people, so she didn't notice Yang's predicament immediately. I don't know if it's because of the blood relationship between the sisters, but then I suddenly glanced at Yang's side. Seeing that Mrs. Yang was surrounded by a group of ladies, her face was very ugly.
Then he frowned, and said a few words to You He in a low voice, and You He separated from the crowd and went to Mrs. Yang: "Mrs. Guo, Empress Empress, please go over and talk."
The appearance of Youhe was really timely for Yang, and he hurriedly dragged his daughter to follow Youhe away.
Although these ladies were not reconciled, there was nothing they could do. After all, no one dared to offend the queen. However, when Mrs. Yang left, this topic did not go away. Instead, it became more and more serious. Some wives were afraid to speak because of Mrs. Yang's presence. Seeing Mrs. Yang left now, they also joined this topic.
Hua Ling has been standing there blankly, his eyes glazed over, and his expression is a little dazed, as if he can't believe that Yang's kindness to him in the past was actually to harm him on purpose.
The ladies felt softer seeing him like this, alas, what a poor child. After a few words of comfort, they asked him how the Yang family treated him in the mansion in the past.
Hua Ling looked like she wanted to say something but didn't want to, and there were still tears in her eyes, which seemed to be about to overflow. Under the half-comfort and half-coaxing of the wives, Hua Ling, with tears in his eyes, whispered about his daily relationship with Yang.
In the end, she asked without giving up: "My mother, my mother, all these years... Has my mother really never regarded me as her own son?"
The trembling voice and the sad expression made those who heard it feel sad and the listener shed tears. Some ladies with weak emotions even wiped their red eye sockets with a handkerchief.
A lady comforted: "It's not a bad thing, it's a blessing in disguise."
"This Mrs. Yang has used a good plan," some wives said angrily, "Why is this person so dark-hearted. She also acts like a loving mother, which is really disgusting. I thought she was good at first." Well, bah!"
A lady said again: "I wondered before, if Mrs. Guo really treats this stepson as well as she said. Why didn't he marry King Zhao instead marry King Ruiying?"
As soon as the lady said this, the topic was brought to a new climax.
Not long after, a lady suddenly coughed, and all voices stopped abruptly.
I saw a servant girl coming from not far away: "Ladies and gentlemen, the empress invites you to go over."
These wives and ladies straightened their hair, tugged at the hem of their clothes, and walked towards the queen with the steps of begging Tingting.
Hua Ling still followed at the end, and when the crowd was about to leave, he followed up and left.
"You're so blind. You can't tell the difference between a human and a dog for so many years." Hua Ling looked in the direction of the voice, and saw a tree a few steps away from him. Leaning his arms on the tree trunk, this is exactly what he said. It seems that this man is also a man's wife.
Seeing Hua Ling looking over, the man walked after those ladies and ladies without waiting for him to speak.
Later, he ordered people to set up two rows of tables and chairs in the imperial garden, with a small table on the right side of each chair. The flower viewing feast is not only to enjoy flowers, but also to eat flowers. Every year before and after the flower viewing feast, the imperial dining room will make various delicacies with flowers as raw materials, and this year is no exception.
Now the table is already full of delicacies, and then they are called to come over, and they are also called to taste.
There were already many people sitting at the banquet, Yang Shi and Hua Luyao had already entered the table.
Hua Ling didn't rush over, he looked back and saw Princess Huojia walking between the two rows of tables and chairs with the help of Empress Debi.
Hua Ling frowned, thinking about it, and quickly picked up a small stone from the ground. When Princess Huojia walked to Hua Luyao, Hua Ling whispered "I'm offended", and with a flick of his hand, hit Hua Luyao's knee with a small stone.
Hua Luyao's legs stretched forward uncontrollably, Princess Huojia was unprepared, and was tripped by her and fell to the ground.
"Ah! The princess fell down!" The servant girl following her exclaimed, and several ladies and ladies who were nearby hurriedly surrounded her.
It was really painful for Princess Huojia to fall to the ground, but she was used to patience and didn't feel anything, so she wanted to stand up from the ground. At this moment, I felt a force pushing her back, it was Empress Depin's hand.
Princess Huojia was extremely intelligent, and immediately understood what Empress Depin meant, and hurriedly made a painful expression: "I can't stand up anymore."
Empress Depin ordered the maid to help Princess Huojia sit on the chair next to her: "Huojia, what's the matter? But what's the matter if it's broken?"
"The leg hurts badly." Princess Huojia's palm was already stained with blood, and she looked at Hua Luyao again, "Why did you trip me on purpose?"
Hua Luyao didn't know what happened just now, she suddenly stretched out her legs involuntarily, although she was used to domineering at home, but this is the palace, the one who fell was the princess. I was dumbfounded for a moment, and only said in my mouth: "It's not me, I didn't trip her on purpose."
Empress Debi's expression was worried: "Miss Hua, I just saw you sticking out your leg. Could it be that that leg is not yours?"
There were a lot of people here, and many people saw Hua Luyao stretching out her legs. At this time a lady said: "I saw it too."
Seeing that it was time for Hua Ling to appear on the stage by herself, she walked over a few steps, and said with a sad face: "Sister, you can beat and scold me as you like on weekdays. I know I made you angry again just now, but you can't Spread this anger on the princess. Although the princess is the prince's own sister, she didn't provoke you."
Hua Ling's words were tantamount to adding fuel to the flames, and the faces of the ladies had changed when they looked at Yang's mother and daughter.
"It's not me, I didn't, don't talk nonsense!" Hua Luyao was on the verge of crying, and didn't know what to say, so she kept retorting.
Mrs. Yang also saw that scene just now, but she couldn't admit it, so she hurriedly said, "This must be a misunderstanding, how could Luyao have the guts to deliberately let the princess wrestle. Luyao, hurry up and apologize to the princess. "
Empress Depin said angrily: "Mrs. Guo, do you think we are all blind? There are so many eyes watching, why are you so open-eyed and talking nonsense?"
Mrs. Minister of the Ministry of Officials also chimed in: "This is what Mrs. Guo is used to doing. She usually acts like a loving mother and loves her children, but her heart is more vicious than snakes and scorpions. Now she is turning black and white under the eyes of everyone." Heh, do you think you can cover the sky with just one hand? You people in Kangleguo's mansion are so bold that you don't even pay attention to the princess. Isn't your daughter more noble than the princess?"
Their place is not far from the successor, and what they said faintly spread there. Then, with the help of the servant girl, she walked up to him: "What happened?"
Yang replied: "Responding to your mother's words, the princess just fell down." Yang naturally erased the cause of the fall.
Debi said coldly: "Mrs. Guo, why don't you tell me why the princess fell down?"
"Madam Guo, how dare you say that." The woman who spoke was none other than Prince Ding's mother, Concubine Shugui, whose status in the harem was second only to the empress.
There were four noble concubines in the Dayuan Dynasty, one was Shu, and one was Mu Wang's mother, Xian. The sons of the three were fighting in the court, and the three were also fighting in the harem.
Concubine Shu said: "Empress, my sister could see clearly just now, it was Miss Hua who deliberately stretched out her legs to trip Princess Huojia."
"Empress, I saw my sister too." It was Concubine Xian who spoke, and it was rare for the two of them to stand on the same front, "I was shocked just now, I have to say that Miss Hua is really nice Big guts."
The situation was not good for Jihou, although Jihou was already furious, but her face remained unchanged, she looked at Hua Luyao and asked, "Is that so?"
Since her aunt is here, Hua Luyao is not as scared as she was just now. She boldly said: "If you go back to the empress, the minnv didn't do it on purpose, and the minnv didn't know what happened. Her leg suddenly went wrong. Listened to orders."
Concubine Shu sneered: "How could this leg be so disobedient when it grows on the body? Could it be that Ms. Hua treats us all as fools?"
"Minnie don't dare," Hua Luyao hurriedly lowered her head, "everything Minnie said is true, I hope Madam will believe it."
"Don't say I don't believe it anymore," Concubine Shu continued, "There are so many people here, as long as they have eyes, they won't believe what you say."
Concubine Xian continued: "Miss Hua looks young, but she is so eloquent. Are all the people in Kangle Kingdom's mansion the same as you?"
The matter has already spread to the Duke of Kangle's mansion. To say that the Duke of Kangle's mansion is not good is to slap the successor in the face. Then he said: "The matter has not been clarified yet, is it too decisive for my sister to speak like this?"
"How can you be decisive? So many of us can see clearly." Today, it was hard to find out the fault of the successor, how could Concubine Xian give up such a good opportunity, and said immediately, "I'm afraid only the empress The empress doesn't believe it."
Concubine Shu's thoughts were the same as Concubine Xian's, and she followed suit: "Empress, you can't just take sides just because Miss Hua is your niece. This would be unfair, how can we convince you in the future? "
"The emperor is here—" These four words sounded like thunder over the imperial garden, and no one expected that the emperor would come. In previous years, the emperor never came to the Flower Festival to avoid suspicion, why did he come this year? It was such a coincidence.
Everyone was speculating in their hearts, and knelt down to receive him: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
