178, the princess eats cake
The cruelty in Concubine Qin's eyes was fleeting, and her face returned to calm in an instant. Most people didn't notice it, but Gu Qianxue was keenly aware of it.
Concubine Qin couldn't let go of her hatred at all, it was just a cover up before.
Gu Qianxue understood very well, not to mention that Concubine Qin couldn't let go, if she were Concubine Qin, she would find a way to fight to the death with the poisoner.
To be harmed by someone and to swallow your anger is not the Holy Mother, that is useless! Losing everything but being able to be calm and calm, that is not disillusioned, that is an idiot!
Concubine Qin was indeed easy-going and generous in the past, but she was almost murdered to death. She suffered more than ten years like a living dead. Thinking about it, the last kindness must have been obliterated.
Gu Qianxue suddenly had a premonition that Concubine Qin wanted revenge!
If Concubine Qin takes revenge, what should she do? Give her a hand, or...
"Qianxue, what are you thinking?" Concubine Qin asked Gu Qianxue tenderly, her voice was softer than usual, if you listened carefully, there was even a slight tremor in it.
What is Gu Qianxue thinking? She was thinking about a profound question—should she stay alone or choose a team to take a stand
If Concubine Qin really wants to take revenge, she can pretend to be ignorant. In this case, Concubine Qin will not be implicated if she loses, and Concubine Qin will not lose if she wins. This is called being alone.
But she can also help Concubine Qin take revenge. In this way, if Concubine Qin wins, there will definitely be some benefits for her.
"I was thinking..." Gu Qianxue murmured.
Suddenly I remembered the poem inscribed on the Holocaust Memorial in Boston, USA:
When they arrested Jews, I didn't speak up because I wasn't.
When they arrested the communists, I didn't speak up because I wasn't.
When they arrested the Allied Anti-Fascists, I didn't speak up because I wasn't.
When they arrested me, there was no one to speak up for me...
"Your Majesty, the empress is hosting a banquet in the palace tonight, don't you know you will go?" Gu Qianxue's voice was clear and melodious with a smile on her face, "The banquet must be very lively, if your empress wants to go, Qianxue will definitely accompany you to have fun Play."
Naturally, the Empress would not send invitations to Concubine Qin, she wished Concubine Qin would disappear from this world forever, and if Concubine Qin wanted to attend the banquet in the palace, she would naturally have to come without being invited, she needed a reason.
Gu Qianxue gave Concubine Qin this excuse.
The eldest princess was furious, and raised the flag, "Shut up, what is your identity, the itinerary of a concubine of a country is something that grassroots people like you can point and draw?"
Concubine Qin covered her mouth with a smile, "Bifu, don't scare the child, Qianxue is filial after all."
Since she didn't refuse, it means that Concubine Qin intends to enter the palace.
The eldest princess was taken aback, "Wan Qing, do you want to participate in this banquet? Didn't you want to go back to the palace before?"
Gu Qianxue felt sorry for the IQ and EQ of the eldest princess. No wonder the princess of a country was forced to return to the princess mansion to be a widow. With such an impulsive and careless temper, how could she hold a man in her hands
The eldest princess should be grateful for her honorable status, otherwise, she might be reduced to cannon fodder.
Gu Qianxue guessed that it's not that Concubine Qin really doesn't want to enter the palace, but that she can't enter the palace! In the past, Concubine Qin could be poisoned when she was in high favor, but now more than ten years later, Concubine Qin's influence has long since disappeared, and it is only when she returns to the palace that she is truly a sheep.
If one wants revenge, one must win back the emperor's heart, and the best way is to live outside the palace, but appear in front of the emperor from time to time.
There is a good saying that a wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as a prostitute, a prostitute is not as good as stealing, and stealing is not as good as stealing.
Concubine Qin is going to be the one who makes the emperor feel itchy even if he can't touch her.
Concubine Qin was very helpless for her unscheming sister, but fortunately Gu Qianxue helped her out, "It's too boring to stay in the palace all day, you should go around, besides, even if you are attending a banquet in the palace, you have to go back to join us." Joining in the fun doesn't count as going back to the palace."
There was approval in Concubine Qin's eyes, she smiled and said nothing.
The eldest princess was completely angry, "Presumptuous, who dares to dare to contradict me with your courage, come here, slap your mouth!" As soon as the voice fell, she felt that it was not fun to let others take action, "Do it yourself!" Wide sleeves rolled up, revealing thick arms.
Gu Qianxue couldn't laugh or cry, how could she be so unlucky, first she offended King Li, and now she offended Princess Eldest, could it be that she doesn't match the surname Gong? No, it is obvious that His Royal Highness is so gentle...
Concubine Qin burst out laughing, "Bifu stop making trouble, why is she still like a child at such an age, if Qianxue really wants to go, what if we accompany her?"
Although the eldest princess is hot, the gentle Concubine Qin is like her nemesis. After hearing what Qin Fei said, the eldest princess said reluctantly, "Since Wan Qing wants to go, let me go too. It's true that I haven't returned for a long time. It's the palace." After speaking, she gave Gu Qianxue a hard look.
"Okay, it's only noon, it's still early," Concubine Qin reassured her best friend, "Bifu is here to try Qianxue's craftsmanship. Today Qianxue cooks herself and made a matcha mille-feuille cake."
"What kind of cake is it with thousands of layers? It's a sensationalist. If you don't have a thousand layers, let's see how I will deal with you." The eldest princess said harshly to Gu Qianxue.
Gu Qianxue really wanted to find a corner to draw a circle, she must have dug up the Gong family's ancestral grave in her previous life.
Concubine Qin also smiled wryly, and turned her head to comfort Gu Qianxue, "Don't be afraid Qianxue, your foster mother likes to joke the most."
— Mother-in-law
Gu Qianxue wanted to cry, but Qin Fei hadn't forgotten about this. If she could, she really wanted to pretend that this didn't happen.
A group of people entered the main hall, a servant girl made tea, and Gu Qianxue cut the matcha mille-feuille cake with a knife, divided it, and put it on a plate.
Concubine Qin likes desserts, and Princess Eldest loves them even more!
Not to mention anything else, the fat on the eldest princess's huge body is the result of eating desserts.
With a serious and critical attitude, the eldest princess cut the entrance of the almost green cake with a spoon. For a moment, the world seemed to stand still.
What a wonderful feeling that was? It melts in the mouth, soft and silky, the thick milky aroma and tea aroma immediately fills the mouth, from the mouth to the abdomen, it is a kind of satisfying sweetness.
The eldest princess continued to eat without saying a word, and soon, a small piece of cake was eaten.
Although the eldest princess is rude and delicious, she will not eat up all the cakes rudely, she just raised her eyes that were squeezed into a line by the fat on her face, and pointed at Gu Qianxue, "You, go again Give me some, no, more."
"..." Everyone.
Seeing Gu Qianxue's ugly face, Concubine Qin smiled wryly and said, "Bifu, Qianxue is also a guest after all, how can she cook as soon as she cooks? Besides, just now Qianxue has given the cooking method to the cook, let the cook do it That's fine."
The eldest princess didn't do it, "Gu Qianxue, don't you even listen to what your stepmother says?"
"..." Gu Qianxue stared at the eldest princess dumbfounded. Could it be that the eldest princess willingly accepted her as a righteous daughter just because of a piece of broken cake? But she doesn't want this foster mother, can she refuse
179, if you want to be pretty and filial
