The Imperial Concubine Just Wants To Be a Salted Fish Every Day

Chapter 291 Flattery on the horse's leg!

The Mid-Autumn Family Banquet is held in the Country Pavilion.

There are osmanthus trees planted around the Country Pavilion. At this time, it is golden autumn, and the osmanthus trees are fragrant.

People can smell the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus before they can go to Country Garden.

In order to meet the occasion, Shaofu deliberately moved many chrysanthemums from other places and put them in the Country Pavilion. There are various kinds of chrysanthemums, and the colors are also various.

Looking around, it almost became a sea of ​​chrysanthemums.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Xixi couldn't help but think of a song.

Chrysanthemum residue, wound everywhere.

...

The main role is still the three big men, the emperor, the queen, and the queen mother.

The prince sat on the right, and his concubines sat behind him.

The four side concubines and two Liang Di had a total of six people, two people at one table, which happened to occupy three tables.

Below the prince are the eldest prince and his family, and further down are the second prince, the fourth prince... and so on.

Opposite them sat the emperor's concubines and princesses.

No outsiders were invited to this family banquet, all the royals were present, but there were more than 60 people in total.

Concubine Jing secretly vowed not to talk to Concubine Xiao before, but she would be slapped in the face soon.

Because she was assigned to the table with Concubine Xiao.

Concubine Jing side had a gentle and generous smile on her face, and she just wanted to curse.

Who the hell arranged for them?

Why arrange her with a poisonous woman like Concubine Xiao? !

Xiao Xixi had no idea about this arrangement.

For her, the important thing is to eat, and the rest are trivial things that can be ignored.

Concubine Li and Concubine Bai are sitting at the table on their left, and Duan Liangdi and Qin Liangdi are at the table on the right.

Concubine Li's mood at this time is similar to Concubine Jing's. The whole East Palace knows that Concubine Li and Concubine Bai are not dealing with each other. Now they are sitting together and neither of them speaks. The atmosphere can be said to be very embarrassing.

Duan Liangdi and Qin Liangdi are slightly better.

The two can occasionally say a few scenes.

But Duan Liangdi has always been absent-minded. At this time, her mind is full of the fried eggs that the prince said.

Damn fried eggs!

In the eyes of the prince, her carefully selected gorgeous dress turned out to be a fried egg!

She didn't dare to blame the prince's vision, she could only blame the maid who helped her choose dresses for being so incapable of doing things, why did she choose such a dress for her with so many beautiful dresses? !

The minds of the people present were different.

The maids filled in with delicious food and wine, and soon all the tables were filled with delicious food.

According to the practice of previous years, the emperor made a few opening remarks, and then everyone raised the wine glasses and toasted the emperor.

After this cutscene is over, tonight's family dinner will officially begin.

Since it is the Mid-Autumn Festival, there must be crabs and osmanthus stuffed on the table.

The crabs in the tribute to the palace are all big and fat, just looking at them makes people move their index fingers.

There are eight crabs on the table. The concubines from aristocratic families are familiar with this set. They picked up the tools and began to skillfully peel the crabs.

Only Xiao Xixi ignored those tools.

She directly picked up a big crab, broke it open with her bare hands, and then ate all the crab roe inside in one go.

The concubine Jing Side next to her stared blankly.

How can anyone eat crabs like this? This is too unsightly!

After Xiao Xixi finished eating the crab roe, she began to bite the crab's claws and legs. After biting through the shell, she sucked out the crab meat inside.

The crab meat is extremely delicious, even without the sauce, it is still delicious.

She noticed that Concubine Jing Side was staring at her, and asked curiously, "What do you see me doing?"

Concubine Jing said with difficulty: "Why don't you use a tool to peel off the crab shell before eating it?"

Xiao Xixi answered confidently: "Because it's too troublesome."

There were only a few crabs on the table, so she had to eat quickly.

Concubine Jing did not agree with her approach. As a concubine, how could she be so rude?

Kejing Concubine will not say these thoughts, let alone remind the other party to restrain a little.

She wished that Concubine Xiao was embarrassed outside.

Concubine Jing put away the surprised look on her face and said with a smile, "Well, this is the first time I've seen someone eat crabs like you."

As she spoke, she cut the crab legs with small scissors, and used a small spoon to dig out the crab meat inside.

Skilled and graceful in action, it is pleasing to the eye.

Concubine Jing quickly peeled off a crab, but she didn't intend to eat crab meat, but wiped her hands with a silk handkerchief and said to the maid next to her.

"Dong Ling, help me send this bowl of crab meat to His Royal Highness to taste."

"Here."

Dong Ling held the small white jade bowl in both hands and took a few steps forward.

She knelt down beside the prince and whispered respectfully.

"His Royal Highness, this is the crab meat that Concubine Jing side peeled for you. Please taste it."

The movement here immediately caught the attention of the other two concubines and two Liang Di, they all stopped and stared at the prince in unison.

Concubine Li scolded inwardly, this concubine Jing is really petty, but it's just a little crab meat, and is it worth sending her to please the prince? !

At the same time, Concubine Li was a little annoyed, why didn't she think of sending some food to the prince? !

Concubine Jing side seemed to be tasting wine, but her eyes kept looking at the prince's back.

She wanted to know the prince's reaction after accepting the crab meat, would he have a little liking for her?

Luo Qinghan looked at the crab meat that was brought in front of him, and said lightly, "Take it away."

Dong Ling didn't expect the prince to react like this.

She was heartbroken.

If the crab meat was returned, Concubine Jing would be embarrassed.

Concubine Jing side must not dare to do anything to the prince, but as a palace maid, she will inevitably be punished when she looks back.

Don't look at Concubine Jing side always being gentle and generous in front of outsiders, but in fact she is very strict with people in private.

Dong Ling begged in a low voice: "Your Highness, this is what Concubine Jing side wants. Even if you don't want to eat it, you can keep it aside and at least save some face for Concubine Jing side."

Luo Qinghan didn't speak.

He is the prince, why should he save face for a concubine?

The ink painting waiting beside him came over.

She said to Dong Ling in an unquestionable tone.

"You should go."

Dong Ling had no choice but to bite the bullet and return to Concubine Jing.

She put the small white jade bowl with crab meat on the table and knelt down.

"Niangniang, it's the servant girl who is ineffective, please punish me."

The two side concubines and the two Liang Di next to them wanted to laugh when they saw this scene, but because the prince was sitting in front of them, they were afraid of leaving a bad impression on the prince, so they could only hold back abruptly. .

Look, look, the flattery hits the horse's leg! She deserves to be ashamed!

Concubine Jing pursed her lips, looked at the crab meat in the bowl, and couldn't say a word for a while.

If she didn't express her position, Dong Ling didn't dare to move, so she could only kneel all the time.
