Regent, your poisonous concubine is going to defy the heavens

Chapter 15 Mid-Autumn Festival Banquet (1)

For three consecutive days, Su Shengsheng stayed in the pharmacy and did not allow anyone else to enter.

In the study.

Mo Chenyuan propped his head up with one hand and asked calmly: "Have you been in the room these days?"

Ling Yu replied respectfully: "Yes, Your Majesty."

"What has Murong Ye been doing recently?"

"He has been staying at the post station. He usually goes out just to stroll around the streets. The place he goes to most often is Zuihonglou."

"Which official didn't you meet?"

"No."

Mo Chenyuan stroked the Buddhist beads in his hand, with a cold look on his face, "You are quite calm."

"Keep staring."

"Yes."

The Mid-Autumn Festival soon arrived. Su Shengsheng was sleeping soundly that morning when Qiu'er ran in in a hurry.

"Princess! Princess! Get up quickly."

"Oh, Qiu'er, what's wrong again?" Su Shengsheng looked at Qiu'er with a look of despair.

"There is a Mid-Autumn Festival banquet in the palace today. You have to attend."

"I won't go. Shouldn't we spend the Mid-Autumn Festival at home together? Why should I go to the palace?"

"You are the princess, so you must go with the regent."

Su Shengsheng was pulled up by Qiu'er, "Guard Ling came this morning and told me that the princess must attend the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet on time."

Su Shengsheng sat up from the bed, "What do you mean? The prince won't come with me?"

"The prince has already gone to the palace, saying that the emperor urgently summoned him."

"Then can I not go?" Su Shengsheng said with a pout.

Qiu Er immediately shook her head and said, "No, if you marry into the Prince Regent's Palace, there will be many eyes staring at you."

"Why are they staring at me?"

"They are betting outside that you will not stay in the Regent's Palace for more than a month, or you will be tortured to death by the Regent."

Su Shengsheng frowned, "What kind of statement is this?"

Qiu'er squatted down and lay beside the bed and said, "Actually, I have something to hide from you. Someone has stuffed women into the Regent's Palace before."

Su Shengsheng's gossiping spirit came to her head again, and she immediately asked anxiously: "Really? What female relatives?"

"I heard that the daughter of an official loved the Prince Regent, so she asked His Majesty to ask for permission to enter the Prince Regent's Palace to serve the Prince. His Majesty agreed on the spot, but I didn't expect that the young lady was carried out less than a quarter of an hour after entering the Prince Regent's Palace that night."

"Ah, what happened to her?"

"There are many rumors. Some say he was frightened to death by the regent, while others say he was tortured to death by the regent. When he was carried out, his body was covered in blood."

"So is this rumor true?"

Qiu Er shook her head, "I don't know either, but these rumors are so widespread that I'm afraid they are probably not much different."

Su Shengsheng sat cross-legged on the bed, "They all want to see what happens to me?"

"Well, so Princess, we can't let them talk about us."

"What's the big deal? It's their business to talk about it. We just need to do our best."

Su Shengsheng got up from the bed and after washing her face, she sat at the dressing table and began to paint.

Qiu Er quickly stopped him and said, "Princess, your face has been healed, why do you want to cover it again?"

"Now is not the time."

"Ah?" Qiu'er scratched her head in confusion.

Su Shengsheng glanced at Qiu'er and said, "According to what you said, I think the girl was not scared to death by the Regent, but was murdered."

"why?"

"Who is the regent? He is the only person in Tian'an Country who has been crowned as a king and holds the power of life and death. Many people admired him before. Although he has a hidden illness, no one admires him openly, but secretly we know that they are not doing anything tricky."

Qiu Er suddenly realized: "No wonder!"

"What's the wonder?"

"After the eldest lady was granted marriage by His Majesty, those young ladies from the noble families did a lot of things behind her back, and even pushed her into the river."

"That's right. I exaggerated my ugliness. Plus, I entered the palace alone tonight. They definitely wouldn't bother to fight me because they think I lost at the starting point."

Qiu Er said with an admiring look: "Princess, you are so thoughtful."

"Okay, according to my intuition, tonight's Mid-Autumn Festival banquet must be very special. Please help me with my hair."

"Yes."

Qiu'er simply fixed Su Shengsheng's hair and said, "Princess, let Yi Liu dress you up before you leave. She knows what to wear and what to wear when you go to the palace."

"Okay, I understand." Su Shengsheng stood up and was about to leave.

Qiu Er asked quickly, "Princess, we haven't had breakfast yet."

"Oh, I'll go to the pharmacy first. I might be back late at night."

Su Shengsheng was tinkering with lunch in the pharmacy when Qiu'er called her out. After a simple meal, she began to dress up.

When Su Shengsheng was about to fall asleep, Yi Liu's voice rang out, "Princess, it's done."

Su Shengsheng woke up suddenly, "Okay." Just as she was about to leave, she felt her head was very heavy. She touched it upwards and found that it was money on top of her head.

Su Shengsheng stood in front of the bronze mirror and looked at herself in her gorgeous attire. The two tassels on her ears swayed slightly. She was wearing a light blue palace dress that was delicately embroidered. There was a light pink flower that was cool and refreshing on the left corner of her waist.

It outlines a winding curve like flowing water, and wearing a veil gives people a sense of mystery.

"Do I...have to wear so many?"

"Yes, Princess, this is according to the palace's requirements."

"Okay." Su Shengsheng was helpless, "Let's go."

Su Shengsheng only brought Qiu'er into the palace, leaving Yi Liu and Yi Wan in the palace.

After getting on the carriage, Qiu'er reminded: "Princess, the eldest lady will also go."

"Yeah." Su Shengsheng replied, supporting her head and squinting her eyes.

Su Shengsheng yawned and said, "How long will it take for us to get there?"

"The palace is not far from the imperial palace. It only takes 25 minutes to get there by carriage. If you are tired, Princess, please take a nap first."

"it is good."

The night is dark and the sky is full of stars.

Tonight the banquet hall is brightly lit, with singing and dancing, and the scenery is magnificent. The royal relatives attending the banquet are entering the palace one after another, and there are laughter and congratulations in the hall.

As soon as Su Shengsheng got off the carriage, she bumped into Su Qingqing, who was wearing a light pink palace dress with light blue butterflies embroidered on the skirt that seemed to spread their wings and were about to fly. She was draped over a layer of white gauze. She had a slender figure and a thin waist, which made her look even more charming.

There was a faint smile on his face. The moment he saw Su Shengsheng, the smile froze on his face. Then he immediately ran to Su Shengsheng and asked, "You little bitch, what poison did you give me last time?"

"Sister, be careful with your mouth. You are the only one allowed to cast a spell on me, but I am not allowed to poison you?"

Su Qingqing's eyes changed slightly, "Who cast a spell on you? Don't talk nonsense."

"Besides, who is your sister? I am the eldest daughter of the mansion."

"Why? Your mother hasn't told you yet that she personally admitted in front of the Regent that I am the eldest daughter. Otherwise, do you think this crime of deceiving the king is so easy to fool?"

"you....."

"Qingqing!" Gu Qingxue slowly got down from the carriage, "How do you talk to your sister like that?"

"Mother, she is not my sister."

"Shut up!"

Gu Qingxue gently stopped Su Qingqing, then smiled and said to Su Shengsheng, "Shengsheng, Qingqing has been spoiled by me, don't take it to heart."

"How dare I, Madam!"

"Why are you being so sarcastic? This is your mistress, you have to call her mother." Su Qingqing said sternly.

"Oh."

Su Qingqing stamped her feet in anger, "Mother, look at her..."

"Okay." Gu Qingxue put her hand on Su Qingqing's hand, indicating that she should not be too aggressive as so many people were watching.
