It had to be said that the person most surprised by Feng Fen Dai's arrival was Consort Li because she did not send an invitation to Feng Fen Dai. She truly could not understand what this person wanted to do by coming uninvited.
Consort Li stared at Feng Fen Dai until she arrived in front of her. She then looked at the child that had come with her. He had dark skin and looked quite cute, but with him being held by Feng Fen Dai, there was no way for anyone to like him. In fact, Consort Li even began to feel irritated.
Because the banquet was not organized in a despicable manner, Consort Li was already unhappy from hearing the complaints of the people. In addition to this, Feng Yu Heng deliberately distanced himself from her and sat with Xuan Tian Ge. This made it so that she could not continue to get closer. Consort Li had a belly full of anger that she had nowhere to vent. Now that she saw Feng Fen Dai come with a rotten child, she immediately found an outlet to vent her anger.
Just as Fen Dai stood still, before she could salute, she heard Consort Li raise her voice and ask in a cold voice: "What have you come here for? Who allowed you to enter the palace? What sort of place do you think the imperial palace is? A girl of no rank and no rank comes and goes as you please. Who exactly is it that is supporting you! "
Once these words were said, Feng Fen Dai laughed on the spot, and her laughter was very unrestrained. Giggling, it caused Feng Yu Heng to think that this girl had been possessed by Han shi. But Feng Fen Dai's laughter was occasionally a bit similar to Han shi's. When she spoke, however, she was completely different from her charming mother. Consort Li not liking her, but she did not mind. At the same time, she did not like Consort Li. She had sought out Consort Li just to make use of their relationship. Also, in this sort of use, there was now a bit of a threat. She said: "Whether or not I can enter the imperial palace is not something that Consort Li can decide. At the same time, anyone that enters or exits the imperial palace does not need to report to an imperial concubine. The reason I was able to enter the palace was definitely because of the Fifth Prince. Why? Does Your Highness have any objections? "
Consort Li also knew that what she had just said was lacking in skill. That was just how she was. She did not have any ideas, and her mind was prone to being impulsive. The words that came out of her mouth in a moment of impulsiveness were not considered. Now that Feng Fen Dai had found fault with her, she felt that she had lost face. However, she was still able to force herself to be reasonable. "I'm talking about Zhang Ning Palace! Who allowed you to come in? "
Fen Dai blinked, "Isn't this place hosting a banquet? When the Empress returned to the position of Imperial Concubine, everyone came to send congratulatory gifts. All the princes also made their own preparations out of respect for His Highness the Sixth Prince. Today, I have come on behalf of His Highness the Fifth Prince to deliver a congratulatory gift to Her Highness. "
After she finished speaking, she signaled the servant girl behind her, Dong Ying, to hand over the box in her hands. Consort Li was a little embarrassed. Fen Dai had used the excuse of delivering a gift, so it was not good for her to say anything else. Moreover, she had said that she was delivering a gift on behalf of His Highness the Fifth Prince. If she continued to nitpick at this time, the one she would offend would not be Feng Fen Dai. Instead, it would be His Highness the Fifth Prince. No matter how muddle-headed she was, she understood that she should not make too many enemies for her son. Even if those princes were her son's competitors, they should not start with her. Thus, she adjusted her mood and said: "Since you've come, let's join in the fun!" After saying this, she gestured to Zuo to give her a seat, but she reached out and pointed to the nearest seat near the entrance: "Just let the Feng family's young miss sit there."
Fen Dai did not care where she was given a seat. Holding Xiao Bao's hand, she followed Zuo. After sitting down, her mood was calm, but her eyes continued to stare at Consort Li. This caused Consort Li's hair to stand on end. She had entered the palace today to see this business partner that she had approached of her own accord. Despite her repeated threats and temptations, this woman did not move or react in the slightest. She could not help but wonder what exactly Consort Li was planning.
Of course, Fen Dai could naturally figure out that Consort Li did not want to help others. Instead, she wanted to push her son onto the throne. But based on her understanding, the Sixth Prince was not someone who could take on the throne. The Sixth Prince was already rejecting it. No matter how much Consort Li wanted it, how could she succeed? But she understood this reasoning. Consort Li would naturally also understand it, but Consort Li was still working hard towards this goal. This caused Fen Dai to have a few more guesses. Could it be that Consort Li had some other support?
She glanced sideways at Zhu Kongshan and evaluated it in her mind. If it was said that Consort Li's support was Noble Lady Yuan's side, that was even more impossible. Noble Lady Yuan had a son of her own. The Eighth Prince was a popular candidate for the throne. How could she possibly turn around and support Consort Li. Could it be … that Consort Li had decided to give up on the Sixth Prince's fight for the throne and turn to help the Eighth Prince?
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this was a possibility. If that was the case, there would not be any benefits for her. The Fifth Prince was all alone and did not have any hope. If Consort Li could not be taken down, perhaps her beautiful dream would be shattered once more.
The more Fen Dai thought about it, the angrier she became. Clenching her fists tightly, she squeezed Xiao Bao's hand. Xiao Bao gently cried out "it hurts." Only then did she recover. But at this time, she saw Consort Li walk down from the main seat and rush toward Feng Yu Heng with a fervent expression. Not caring that Xuan Tiange was to the side, she squeezed forward and tugged at Feng Yu Heng's sleeve, saying: "Heng Heng, look at how far you're sitting. The two of us don't even have the time to talk properly."
Consort Li's fervent attitude caused Xuan Tiange, who had been pushed to the side, to frown. She could not help but quietly mutter to her two sisters: "When did they become mother and daughter? Is there such a way to claim kinship? "
Fung Tianyu thought for a bit then said: "Could it be because of the relationship with His Highness the Sixth Prince? After all, His Highness the Sixth Prince and Heng Heng have a good personal relationship. Didn't Heng Heng ask us to come together to give His Highness the Sixth Prince some face? "
Xuan Tiange thought for a bit. Aside from this, there was no other possibility, thus she nodded; however, she still could not help but say: "You made yourself feel closer to Ah-Heng than Imperial Concubine Yun, what sort of situation is this? Could it be that Sixth Brother did not have a girl that he liked all this while and Consort Li was too anxious? So much so that she kissed whoever she saw? "
She could not figure it out after much thought, but Feng Fen Dai was able to see some things at a glance. In addition, a Young Miss not far away said sourly: "Oh! Those who don't know would think that Royal Consort Yu is Her Highness Consort Li's daughter-in-law! Look at how close they are, it really makes people envious. " Fen Dai seemed to have guessed Consort Li's thoughts in an instant, but she also wanted to slap herself in an instant.
This was truly laughable! If Consort Li really had such thoughts, then Consort Li was crazy! How could she think of plotting with a crazy person? Working together?
She laughed, but she was also a little expectant. Who knew what Consort Li would do when she had these thoughts. She really wanted to see something out of the ordinary. That would make things lively! It would be best if the Ninth Prince beat Consort Li and her son to death in a fit of anger. This way, Dashun's future throne would have one less person to worry about.
Consort Li pulled Feng Yu Heng over and chatted passionately. Not to mention whether Feng Yu Heng's attitude was cold or warm, the guests in the parlor were all very unpleasant to look at. Those people who felt that the banquet was not like a banquet began to feel that it was unfair. There were even people who said: "If I knew earlier, I would not have sent such a grand gift. Consort Li is so stingy. Just looking at her makes people feel annoyed!"
"But of course! Could it be that we're just going to be left to sit around for the entire day? " Another young miss slapped the table, "We've already finished eating all of the rotten fruit, yet there's no mention of sending any more. Is this Zhang Ning Palace or the cold palace! Why is it that she doesn't have the bearing of a favored imperial concubine at all? "
Zhu Kongshan looked at this scene and felt that she had lost control. Thinking a bit, she simply stood up and walked over to Consort Li. Ignoring the fact that she was chatting passionately with Feng Yu Heng, she forcefully interjected: "Aunty, how about Kongshan plays a song for everyone present? It can also be considered a celebration for this Yang Palace banquet. "
Consort Li raised an eyebrow and very impolitely said: "What is it? Do you think that this One's place is too cold? Do you think that this One's hospitality is not good enough? Don't rush. Your eldest aunt should be coming in a bit. When the time comes, you can go back with her and avoid this boredom. "
Zhu Kongshan was stunned and quickly bowed to apologize: "Second aunt, please do not blame me. Kongshan did not mean it that way."
Consort Li, however, no longer paid any attention to her. Turning her head, she looked at Feng Yu Heng with a smile.
Zhu Kongshan secretly gritted her teeth and got up to return to her seat. She could not understand. Was it something that Noble Lady Yuan had done to cause Imperial Concubine Li to be unhappy, or was it that Feng Yuheng was trying to push them aside? If it was intentional, then what exactly had she used to attract all of Consort Li's attention?
Finally, Noble Lady Yuan arrived. Feng Yu Heng stopped Consort Li from continuing with the topic of the Sixth Prince and kindly reminded her: "Your Highness should return to the head seat. Only like this will it be more convenient for the guests to greet you."
Consort Li really did not want to leave Feng Yu Heng's territory, but Feng Yu Heng's words caused her to take it to heart. Looking at Noble Lady Yuan, who had already entered the parlor, she nodded and said: "It really is Heng Heng who has thought things through." Only then did she stand up and return to her seat.
Just as she left, Xuan Tiange's group came forward and asked her in a very gossipy manner: "What exactly did Consort Li eat wrong?"
Feng Yu Heng snorted coldly and did not hold back in the slightest, saying: "It seems that Sixth Brother really did inherit all of his intelligence from Father Emperor! If she takes after Imperial Concubine Li in the slightest, it really would be a headache. "
Before Xuan Tian Ge's group had a chance to guess the meaning behind her words, they saw Noble Lady Yuan walk over to Imperial Concubine Li and very politely salute according to rank. She then respectfully said: "This concubine greets Your Highness Imperial Concubine Li. I wish Your Highness good health."
At this time, Consort Li was the complete opposite of the fawning and fawning attitude that she had when speaking with Feng Yu Heng. Her face was solemn and rigid, as she slightly raised her head. Her posture as an imperial concubine was immediately revealed, causing Noble Lady Yuan's position to become even lower.
Faced with Noble Lady Yuan's salute, she did not immediately respond. Instead, she looked at her with disdain and unfamiliarity for a while before slowly saying: "Oh, this One was wondering who it was. It turned out that it was a noble lady living in a side hall of Cun Shan Palace. You may rise! Everyone who has come is a guest. Zuo, please sit. "
Noble Lady Yuan stood up; however, she did not care about Consort Li's attitude. After that big play, it was impossible for Consort Li to not know that she was the culprit, unless she was incredibly stupid. And it was clear that Consort Li was not stupid to that degree, but to display such an attitude in front of others, it was clear that she was not that smart.
She refused Zuo's offer to lead her to where the other noble ladies were sitting. Instead, she looked all around the parlor and could not help but shake her head. She then took a few steps forward and sat down at Consort Li's side. With a smile on her face, she said: "His Majesty said that our sisterhood is deep, and our niece has done good deeds outside. Whether he rewards you or me, it's all the same. Younger sister, what do you think? "
The words' sisterhood is deep 'had been used against Emperor Tianwu. Even if Consort Li did not like it, she did not dare refute it. After struggling internally for a long time, she still nodded and awkwardly said: "Yes." However, she secretly gritted her teeth, as her hatred for this elder sister reached a peak …
