Traveling to the ancient harem

Chapter 381 Snacks and Tea

Cining Palace.

The Queen Mother showed special satisfaction with Concubine Du.

"The deposed queen made a big mistake this time. It looks like it won't work."

The Queen Mother sighed.

"Princess Du, you have the ability to manage the harem, and now the eldest princess is raised by you, from now on..."

She didn't finish the rest of her words.

She believed that everyone present was smart and would understand what she heard.

Concubine Du was not as overjoyed as the empress dowager had expected. She stood up as dignified as before.

"Thank you for your kindness, Queen Mother. Your Majesty has entrusted this harem to me, and I will do my best..."

The Queen Mother's face twitched involuntarily.

This bitch, Concubine Du, is stubborn and it seems that it will be difficult to persuade her to rebel.

But there was still a long time to go, and she didn't believe that Concubine Du had no idea about that position.

As long as she has it, it is only a matter of time before she and Concubine Ye fall out.

"Princess Yi, now that Gao'er has been sent to Ningyuxuan, you should also relax."

When Concubine Yi heard the Queen Mother mention her name, she quickly stood up and saluted.

"Gao'er likes Concubine Ye and cried about wanting to go to Ningyuxuan to play. It was the Emperor who asked him to stay at Ningyuxuan for a while."

From what Concubine Yi said, it turned out that she was also reluctant to let her child leave her side.

It was just an order from the emperor, and she didn't dare disobey.

"Ye Jieyu still has the temperament of a child. Children, if they want something, they will get it first."

The Queen Mother shook her head pretentiously.

"Ye Jieyu, Concubine Yi and her son have a deep bond. You should not separate them."

The Queen Mother began to look at Huang Ye.

She never looked at Huang Ye after she came in. She was afraid that she would accidentally expose her deep hatred for this person.

"Your Highness, the eldest prince likes to live in Ningyuxuan. Even if I don't want to, I can't kick him out."

Huang Ye stood up and replied respectfully.

"Besides, the Emperor has spoken. Your Majesty, you don't know how difficult it is to serve the eldest prince."

Huang Ye took advantage of his young age to complain to the Queen Mother.

"The child complained of heartache after eating a few mouthfuls of food, and complained of hunger after not eating..."

The Queen Mother knew this would happen. This Concubine Ye is still a child, how could she raise a child well?

The emperor doted on her so much that he didn't care about Gao'er's health.

"The Emperor has entrusted Gao'er to you, so you should take good care of him with all your heart and responsibility. How dare you complain here..."

The Queen Mother felt that if she didn't teach her a lesson at this time, it would be unfair to the current good atmosphere.

"You don't know, Empress Dowager, that the eldest prince lives in Ningyuxuan, and I am worried about him day and night."

The yellow leaves complain.

"Your Majesty, if you don't believe it... or what?"

"Please bring the eldest prince to your Cining Palace to play for a few days... so that I can relax for a few days."

Huang Ye discussed the matter with the Queen Mother.

How could the Queen Mother be willing to take on this hot potato?

"What nonsense are you talking about, Concubine Ye? Since the emperor has handed Gao'er over to you, he must have his own intentions."

"Don't say this kind of nonsense again."

Huang Ye thanked him reluctantly and sat down. It was obvious that she was very disappointed.

Everyone understood that she had been severely tortured by the eldest prince.

It seems that this favorite concubine also has her own reasons.

Look at her, how lively Ye Jieyu used to be, but now she is so worried.

Although Concubine Yi looked expressionless, her heart was actually in turmoil.

Even the Empress Dowager, her own grandmother, avoided Gao'er, but Concubine Ye was willing to take Gao'er to Ningyuxuan for treatment.

The difference in the attitudes of these two people towards Gao Er is obvious.

She made up her mind that she would follow Concubine Ye's lead from now on.

With Ye Jieyu's current demeanor, if she really takes that position in the future,...

With her love for Gao'er, she will definitely protect Gao'er.

Not to mention what Concubine Yi was thinking, the Queen Mother was also feeling unhappy at this time.

Of the two people who were originally planning to rebel today, Concubine Du was unmoved and Concubine Yi seemed useless.

She didn't even dare to say a word of dissatisfaction to Concubine Ye.

She looked at Shi Yaoyao and asked if she had drunk the bowl of tea given by Concubine Ye.

Shi Yaoyao shook her head imperceptibly.

The Queen Mother suddenly felt a surge of anger for no apparent reason.

Since Concubine Ye refuses to accept my toast, don't blame her for being rude.

"You have all been sitting here for a while, the tea in front of you may have gotten cold."

The Queen Mother picked up the tea bowl in front of her.

"Someone, refill the tea in front of them."

Then a palace maid from the Cining Palace came in with a teapot and refilled everyone's tea bowls.

"Take a sip and drink it. It's cold and a sip can warm you up."

The Queen Mother lifted the tea bowl in her hand, put it to her mouth and took a sip.

Everyone in the hall was very polite and picked up their tea bowls to drink from them in small sips.

There were only yellow leaves. She held the tea bowl and looked at it left and right, but refused to put it into her mouth.

"Ye Jieyu, why don't you drink? Are you dissatisfied with the tea in the Cining Palace?"

The Queen Mother saw that Huang Ye didn't drink tea and started to call out his name.

"Your Highness, I didn't eat breakfast this morning, so I can't drink tea."

Huang Ye stood up and replied confidently.

There was a sinister light in the Queen Mother's eyes.

This bitch, could it be that she saw something?

"Ye Jieyu means that the Cining Palace didn't prepare food for you?"

The Queen Mother felt that Concubine Ye was her nemesis and nothing went smoothly for her.

"Yingchun, since Concubine Ye has raised her opinions, bring her some snacks."

Madam Yingchun quickly agreed and left.

"I feel bad for eating so much alone. Everyone here should have a share."

Huang Ye smiled again and looked at the Queen Mother and made a request.

"Your Highness, do you think this is true?"

Since the Queen Mother wanted to harm her, why should she be polite to her?

Huang Ye felt that the Queen Mother was also stupid.

It hasn't even been a few days since the house arrest was lifted, and she's already jumping out to cause trouble again.

And he used such vicious means.

She suspected that Xu Rou had a lot to contribute to this. Shi Yaoyao was a scheming person and was not so impatient.

In fact, Huang Ye guessed correctly. Shi Yaoyao had originally disapproved of Huang Ye's drugging.

But she could not resist the hatred that the aunt and niece had for Huang Ye, so she could only let them do whatever they wanted.

She actually has a secret expectation in her heart...

What if...what if their plan succeeds?

As for the Queen Mother, she did not comment after hearing Huang Ye's words, nor did she say whether she would give snacks to other concubines.

It didn't take long before the snack for Huang Ye was delivered, which was a plate of noodles.

If you are hungry, it is best to eat this snack with tea.

Huang Ye picked up one of the flower-shaped snacks and held it in his hand.

"The snacks here are different, the Queen Mother. They look so good. I can't bear to eat them."

"If you like, ask Yingchun to pack some for you when you leave later."

The Queen Mother said, holding back her anger.

"Didn't you say you didn't have breakfast? This snack goes best with tea."
