[R18] There’s too much meat, I don’t want it anymore – “Too Much Meat, I Don’t Want Any More” Chapter 81 [English]
by0081 Palace Banquet (3)
“Hey! The Sixth Princess is here, Xiaoyan, why don’t you give me a seat quickly?”
Upon hearing Concubine Shu’s summons, the ladies all made way for Hua Xuan. This made Hua Xuan not sure whether to thank Concubine Shu for saving her or to be frightened. After all, people who could survive in this palace were not so easy to mess with.
The palace maid took Hua Xuan all the way to Concubine Shu’s annex without any obstruction. Just as she imagined, the annex was full of luxury. The golden color made it difficult for Hua Xuan to open her eyes. Hua Xuan lowered her head all the way, humbly and orderly.
Hua Xuan saluted Concubine Shu, and then raised her head to look at the woman who was doting on the harem. They left in a hurry at the last banquet, and Hua Xuan was cautious, so she did not take a good look at the woman in front of her.
Concubine Shu has a pretty face, just like the girl next door, but her figure is unusual, with a bulging front and back. In addition, Concubine Shu is not the kind of woman with big breasts and no brains. Thinking about the time when Li Yi took her to peek at her, Hua Xuan knew that the woman in front of her was the kind of woman who was very good at using her own strengths.She was able to use her pitiful appearance to seduce the emperor, protect her to the extreme, and then use her body and skills to hold the emperor tightly on the bed, which is really admirable.
“Today is the day of reunion on New Year’s Eve. I wonder what the important thing is for Concubine Shu to summon my concubine?” Hua Xuan sat upright with a decent look. She has been like this for so long anyway, and she doesn’t care about this moment anymore.
Concubine Shu walked down from the host’s seat and said enthusiastically: “Actually, it’s nothing. It’s just that the VIP card of Luye Pavilion that the Sixth Princess gave me last time is useful, but it’s not convenient for me to leave the palace often, so it’s a pity.”
Hua Xuan suddenly frowned when she saw Concubine Shu’s beautiful appearance. She became a little uncomfortable. After all, she was not very familiar with Concubine Shu now. How could she not be surprised when faced with Concubine Shu’s enthusiastic reaction?But luckily she was prepared in advance.
“My dear concubine, don’t worry. The Spring Festival is coming. To congratulate your concubine, I have brought a special gift.” Hua Xuan motioned to Fang Fei, who had been standing by pretending to be dead, to present the gift she had prepared.
Concubine Shu saw the gift wrapped tightly in a gift box. She was really embarrassed to open the gift, so she could only say with a smile: “I wonder what kind of gift the Sixth Concubine gave me?”
“These are the clothes I specially ordered the master of Luye Pavilion to design for the imperial concubine. This clothes will help to increase the happiness of the imperial concubine and the emperor. I hope the imperial concubine will like it.” In order to show the effect, Hua Xuan lowered her head to show shyness.
Originally, the reason why she called Hua Xuan over was to win over Hua Xuan and let Li Yiwen be used by her, but she didn’t expect that Hua Xuan could actually bring her such a treasure, which made her impatient to see it.
However, Concubine Shu, who had been trained for so many years, could still hold back her excitement. She held Hua Xuan’s hand and said like a relative, “Oh! Thank you so much, Concubine Six, for taking so much trouble.”
Sensing the change in Concubine Shu’s mood, Hua Xuan took advantage of the wind and said, “This is what I should do. I was hesitant to come out in a hurry and did not notify the Sixth Master. I was afraid that the Sixth Master was still looking for me, so I resigned first.”
Concubine Shu did not forget her purpose, but she heard that Li Yiwen was waiting, and summoning Hua Xuan this time was too conspicuous. If something went wrong, she was worried that this year would not be good, so Concubine Shu immediately made a regretful look and said: “Originally, I wanted to chat with the Sixth Princess more, but since the Sixth Prince is waiting, it is inconvenient for me to stay longer. I hope that the Sixth Princess will come to the palace to visit me more in the future.”
Hua Xuan saw that Concubine Shu was still determined to win her over, so she talked nonsense with Concubine Shu. The most important thing at this time was to escape from the palace. Anyway, after she got out, she could talk about everything in the future.
Hua Xuan lowered her head and adjusted her stiff face. She followed the palace maid out of the other courtyard. She turned her head and motioned to Fang Fei to hurry up. After all, after Concubine Shu found her, if there was no accident, the queen would definitely come back.
As expected, for some unknown reason, the palace maid who had just led the way took them away from the original route and came to a pavilion. Hua Xuan, who was observing the terrain along the way, certainly knew that she had been targeted. If she resisted, she might be killed, so it was better to take advantage of the trap.
“The Sixth Princess won’t be angry with me for taking my own initiative, right? I haven’t seen the Sixth Princess for a long time, and I miss her very much. If I have offended, I hope the Sixth Princess will forgive me.” The Queen was sitting in the pavilion, her slender hands skillfully handling the tea set. She poured out the first tea one by one, and the palace maid standing aside understood the situation and immediately replenished the tea.
Hua Xuan had already expected such a situation, and she immediately saluted the queen. Fortunately, Li Yibai had warned her that her entry into the palace would not be peaceful, and asked her to be prepared, otherwise she would have been exhausted from the torment again and again.
“The Sixth Princess must have caught a cold from walking all the way. Why don’t you sit down and have some tea with me and chat?” The queen filled the teacup with water. Although she talked to Hua Xuan, she never glanced at Hua Xuan from beginning to end.
Of course Hua Xuan knew what the Queen was thinking. Didn’t she just want to know what she had talked about with Concubine Shu, and how she wanted to win over Li Yiwen through her? Anyway, she still had some use value now, and the Queen would definitely not do anything to her, but she was too tired today and really didn’t want to get entangled with them.
So Hua Xuan decided to speak frankly: “What the Empress said made me really scared. I just presented clothes to Concubine Shu. If the Empress doesn’t mind, I would also like to offer clothes and jewelry to the Empress.”
The queen did not expect that Hua Xuan would be so stupid as to tell everything without her asking. It seemed that the rumors outside the palace were accurate. Such a stupid person would be able to grasp it well without her having to put any effort at all.
“Clothes? Since the Sixth Princess has this intention, then show them to me!” After the queen ordered Hua Xuan in her mind, she made a plan in her mind.
After Hua Xuan saw Fang Fei handing the gift to the queen, she still maintained her kneeling posture. She had no choice but to do it. It was such a troublesome thing in ancient times. The etiquette of respect and inferiority was very important. Without the queen’s permission, Hua Xuan could not get up at all.Being blown by the cold wind, Hua Xuan cursed the queen’s ancestors dozens of times in her heart, and silently wrote down this account, which she must repay tenfold in the future.
“I have accepted the clothes and jewelry. Furong brought my Hetian jade and gave it to the sixth princess last time.” The queen looked at Hua Xuan who was sultry in the cold wind, and the corner of her mouth couldn’t help but curl up.
Hua Xuan took the initiative to offer a gift to Concubine Shu, rather than intending to make good friends. If she became intimate with Hua Xuan now, it would definitely make the emperor suspicious. The emperor hates women in the harem intervening in politics. SheIt’s better to be a little indifferent to Hua Xuan now and let Hua Xuan be more intimate with Concubine Shu. When the time comes, go to the emperor to give Concubine Shu some trouble. Even if Concubine Shu cannot be brought down, it will be enough to make Concubine Shu suffer a little.When the time comes, Li Yiwen will have no choice and will definitely seek refuge with the Third Prince. In this way, he will really kill two birds with one stone!
After hearing the Queen’s last words, Hua Xuan was not only a little flattered, but she also had to look very stupid and greedy, kowtow excitedly to thank her.
“Okay, it’s a little late for me to see the weather. The Sixth Princess should leave the palace as soon as possible!” The queen picked up the crystal clear tea cup. The tea in the tea cup was clear. The queen tasted it carefully, always acting supremely.
Hearing the Queen’s proud gift, Hua Xuan’s heart had already blossomed with joy. She thanked her immediately, and she had to leave this place of right and wrong immediately. It was too torturous here, it was cold and not allowed to eat, and most importantly, she had to deal with these difficult people, which really made her extremely irritable.
