Chapter 52 Xi Chuyu makes a fool of himself in public
While Su Yiting was drinking heavily, Xi Chuyu followed him quietly.
She had just said kind words for Concubine Dong, but in the blink of an eye, Concubine Dong was defeated by Prince Li and Concubine Jiang.
Now, the people who stayed at the banquet immediately took advantage of the situation, and they all gathered around Concubine Jiang to flatter her and compete for her favor.
But Xi Chuyu had just stood on the side of Concubine Dong Gui. If he suddenly turned against Concubine Jiang and stood on Concubine Jiang's side and let His Highness Su Yiting see it, then it would be a disgrace to both sides.
Xi Chuyu thought about it again and again, and finally set her target on Concubine Dong Guifei and her son.
Because whether it is Concubine Dong or His Highness Su Yiting, they have only lost power temporarily. As long as Concubine Dong is still His Majesty’s favorite concubine and His Highness Su Yiting is still His Majesty’s favorite son, then everything Xi Chuyu has planned
It will not fail easily.
"Your Highness, the world is bright and the sky is clear. It's boring for you to drink here alone. Why don't you let me have a few drinks with you? What do you think?"
Xi Chuyu avoided the other women, carrying a wine bottle, and deliberately sat next to Su Yiting.
Such a move has already crossed the line.
Although His Majesty held a grand begging festival in the capital in order to attract more young men and women, their national customs still have many constraints on unmarried women.
For someone like Xi Chuyu to take a man to drink in public, it was already an outrageous move.
"Xi Chuyu, how dare you look down on me in a sly manner now? I am drinking here alone and being happy, how can you be so bored in your eyes?"
Su Yiting was already sensitive. When Xi Chuyu came forward, he felt that the other party was ungrateful. When Xi Chuyu said that he wanted to accompany him, Su Yiting felt more and more that Xi Chuyu was deliberately mocking him!
"Xi Chuyu, I am a nobleman from Tianhuang. I need a yellow-haired girl to accompany me? Do you think you have the qualifications to accompany me?"
"...!"
Xi Chuyu never expected that the "seduce" he had planned several times in his mind would be misinterpreted in this way by His Highness Su Yiting.
"Your Highness, how dare I disrespect you? I really wanted to drink with you just now!"
"Since His Highness is enjoying himself alone, then I will not be an eyesore in front of His Highness!"
Xi Chuyu was furious when she saw Su Yiting, and she quickly wanted to run away. She originally wanted to help her and her mother in this Qiqiao Festival.
Unexpectedly, without the support and help of her mother, she would be so weak and unable to achieve any big things!
"Let's go? Is this hall scary? Xi Chuyu, what do you think this place is? You can come and leave whenever you want?"
Su Yiting felt particularly aggrieved now, but he couldn't get angry without any reason.
In that case, it will be misinterpreted by some people into other meanings!
After the tax evasion incident of Lin Haishan, the magistrate of Fuxian County, there were countless pairs of eyes staring at him behind him. If he acted rashly at this time, he would surely be found out!
And now Xi Chuyu, who deliberately approached him, was the best outlet for him to vent his temper.
Therefore, no matter what Xi Chuyu said to him today, Su Yiting would not let him go easily!
"Xi Chuyu, you just showed your courtesy in front of my mother and concubine, and now you are sarcastic and sarcastic towards me. After all, you are also a lady from the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Rites. Mr. Xi, the Minister of Rites, is in charge of the etiquette and rules of our court. He is in the Shangshu Mansion.
Is this how you taught your daughter when you were young?"
"Your Highness, I never meant to ridicule Your Highness! I just...just saw His Highness finish all his drinks, and wanted to bring you a bottle of wine."
Xi Chuyu could not tell her true purpose in front of everyone, so she could only keep making excuses, hoping that His Highness Su Yiting would let her go and not continue to attack her.
"Xi Chuyu, what do you think this place is? This is the palace! You didn't see there were so many people serving at the palace banquet.
A palace maid?"
"If we have really run out of drinks, they will come over to refill our cup!"
"I am a prince, and all the food you eat needs to be carefully inspected one by one before it can be served in front of me!"
"Xi Chuyu, you walked up to me so directly with a jug of wine, is it possible that there was some medicine in your wine?"
Su Yiting encountered too many unpleasant things today, which brought out the worst aspects of his temperament.
"Your Highness! Your Highness, how could I possibly kill you in front of everyone?"
As soon as Xi Chuyu heard His Highness Su Yiting said that she had poisoned her, her seven souls suddenly lost her six souls. Poisoning the royal family was a capital crime for everyone!
"Your Highness, I have realized my mistake. I should not bother you so self-righteously. I will leave now!"
"As for the jug of wine in my hand, in order to prove my innocence, I am willing to drink it myself and show it to His Highness!"
Xi Chuyu was worried that everyone in the Shangshu Mansion would be executed, so she quickly opened the wine bottle in her hand and drank the wine directly in front of everyone.
The wine at the palace banquet was already a rare fine wine. Now, Xi Chuyu drank it in such a hurry that her face instantly became dizzy.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, there is really no poison in this drink... There is really no poison in the drink..."
Xi Chuyu, who was under the influence of alcohol, was still trying hard to explain all this with a big tongue, while everyone on the side was already talking about Xi Chuyu's public embarrassment.
"This Xi Chuyu is really stupid! Now I feel that it is really embarrassing to know her!"
"Look at her stupid look. No one here doesn't know that she wants to seduce His Highness Su Yiting, so she grabs a drink and goes to provoke His Highness!"
"Xi Chuyu's father is the Minister of Etiquette! Didn't he teach Xi Chuyu that women should not be so wild in such a long river?"
"Have you all forgotten that this Xi Chuyu is the daughter of Lord Shangshu Xuxian? What kind of good daughter do you think a woman from a small family can teach?"
Among those who were watching the excitement, Xi Chuyu was the one who scolded her at first, and the scolding was directed at Mrs. Shangshu's head.
For Xi Chuyu, her mother, Mrs. Shangshu, was her closest relative, so when she heard her mother being so insulted by this group of people, Xi Chuyu immediately became unwilling!
"What nonsense are you talking nonsense here! Let me tell you, my mother is the most noble lady of Shangshu Mansion! The head mistress of Shangshu Mansion!"
"You all are still here saying that my upbringing is not good! You don't even look at yourselves! Look at your appearance. Do you think you are still some high-ranking young lady?"
"I tell you, you don't have to laugh at me here, one day you will be like me!"
Because the great anger in her heart supported Xi Chuyu, she cursed at everyone in one go. In her drunken state, she was so smart that she cursed.
"Miss Liu, you think your mother is powerful, but Mr. Liu has many wives and concubines in his house, and he is still in his seventies and has to carry a young girl to the house. Don't you feel ashamed?"
"Ms. Li, you said that Xi Chuyu's mother is Xu Xian. Didn't your mother also fill houses for others? Moreover, your mother is the sister of the first lady! Two sisters serve the same husband together. This is what you call a polite and genuine wife.
?』
Xi Chuyu went to many occasions with her mother, Mrs. Shangshu, so she knew everything about the so-called relatives of famous families in Kyoto!
Since these people don't want her to have an easy time today, then she, Xi Chuyu, will simply make it difficult for everyone!
Why should it be she, Xi Chuyu, who is wronged?
Xi Chuyu felt indignant and cursed directly at everyone.
"Xi Chuyu, no matter how bad our mansion is, our mother is still the one who is in charge! But what about you? Your mother, Mrs. Shangshu, doesn't even have the right to run the house now. She is still the head of the house like this.
Mistress?"
"Xi Chuyu, now that your mother is not a serious mistress, then your daughter can't be considered a legitimate young lady, right?"
"Today is the Qiqiao Festival. Those who can enter the palace to participate in the banquet are all legitimate descendants. How dare you, a legitimate descendant with a dishonest reputation, continue to stay here?"
No matter how sharp-tongued Xi Chuyu is, she is still alone.
Now, when a group of people are attacking, Xi Chuyu seems to be very powerless to deal with it! As soon as Xi Chuyu can't deal with these women in front of her, she feels aggrieved!
If the dead Xi Qingyan hadn't been resurrected inexplicably, her mother, Mrs. Shangshu, would have been the head mistress of Shangshu Mansion!
Xi Qingyan is the culprit for her humiliation today!
Xi Chuyu figured out the cause and effect, and she attributed everything that happened now to Xi Qingyan's head. When she looked at the crowd in front of her drunkenly, she saw Xi Qingyan in the crowd standing aside and watching!
This group of people scolded her and insulted the Shangshu Mansion so much! As a member of the Shangshu Mansion, Xi Qingyan actually looked on with cold eyes?
The anger in Xi Chuyu's heart was immediately angered after seeing Xi Qingyan's calm expression. Xi Chuyu directly smashed the wine bottle in her hand towards Xi Qingyan!
"careful!"
Xi Qingyan didn't expect that Xi Chuyu would become so crazy after being drunk, and she didn't expect that Xi Chuyu would dare to do something in public.
So when the wine bottle thrown by Xi Chuyu hit her, Xi Qingyan didn't react much.
Su Lixiao on the side had long been accustomed to sudden changes, so he reacted immediately. Su Lixiao not only pulled Xi Qingyan over, but also held the wine bottle as well.
"Xi Qingyan, aren't you usually very clever? Why are you so stupid even after a wine bottle was smashed on your head?"
After Su Lixiao rescued the person, he frowned slightly and cursed at Xi Qingyan in front of him.
He did all this so naturally, but when Xi Qingyan saw her son Xi Xiaochen trying to get close to her, she quickly stopped her with her eyes.
She is still the "famous" ugly girl in Kyoto, Xi Qingyan, and Su Lixiao, father and son, are so close to each other, and they will be in trouble if someone finds out!
"My dear, thank you, His Highness King Li, for saving me. Your Highness, you can let go."
Xi Qingyan collected her emotions, and then thanked Su Lixiao in front of her. Su Lixiao also knew that the current occasion was inappropriate, and finally let go of Xi Qingyan's hand.
"Come here, drive the second young lady of the Xi family out of this palace who is drunk and causing trouble! How can such a person who doesn't understand the rules stay in the palace!"
In the absence of Concubine Dong, Concubine Jiang gave orders to the palace guards.
"Yes, my dear!"
The guards dragged Xi Chuyu out forcefully.
Chapter completed!
