Chapter 426 The Feast (Part Two)


    Luo Qingyan had been wearing a cold face all the time. He didn''t say a word from beginning to end as


    if he was watching an irrelevant farce.


    Hearing the empress'' words, he raised his head and nced at the empress. he sneered and said,


    "are you ming your majesty for having three thousand women in the imperial household so you can


    not be the only woman of his majesty?"


    Hearing that, the empress'' face changed slightly, but in an instant, she put on a smile again. "Why did


    you say that, Prince rui? I am only admiring your love for your wife, but I also know that it is a crime for


    women who are jealous and can''t tolerate other women of her husband. Of course I didn''t mean that."


    Prince Jing sneered coldly and retorted, "actually, my wife is not jealous of anyone at all. It''s just that


    I''m so jealous that I don''t allow anyone to get any attention from her. I don''t want my wife to distract her


    attention on other things that she can''t stay with me all the time. "


    When the banquet was quiet for a while, Luo Qingyan''s cold voice sounded again, "I''m always having a


    bad temper. If someone always likes to harass my wife in my mansion, then don''t me me for being


    rude to you."


    The empress was embarrassed by Prince Jing twice. She kept silent for a moment and said, "Your


    Highness has just arrived at the state of Xia. Don''t be so cold to us. Be careful not to frighten the


    delicatedies here." Then she added, "Your Majesty, didn''t you ask us to have a smallpetition


    together? Will you reward the person who wins a lot?"


    Xia Huanyu nodded his head with a smile. "The state of Xia has always worship a man who worships


    the literature, so let''s y the flower poem today. Today''spetition is not for punishments, and there


    are only rewards and no punishments. I will say a sentence about the flower first, and anyone who can


    say another sentence about the same kind of flower can stand up and say it out aloud. In the end, if


    there is no one can say any more


    sentences, then thest person wins. Do you have any objections? "


    Yun Shang heard about the flower poem of the state of Xia before. The flower poem game was not


    held in the state of Ning. In the State of Ning, the person will beat the drum and issue a flower. In the


    State of Xia, the person who initiate this game must recite a poem about flowers, and the name of the


    flower mentioned must be in the next person''s sentence.


    Since no one answered him, Xia Huanyu said with a smile, "If no one opposes that, then I will give the


    first sentence to you. Peach blossom are beautiful on human faces. "


    As soon as he stopped, the Princess Tai An said with a smile, "The peach flowers are so red under the


    sun."


    Then several other people, who Yun Shang could not name, said other sentences, but it took more and


    more time. Yun Shang looked at them indifferently, and did not speak. A young man had stood up. "We


    can hear the rain on the flower leaves."


    After a long while, no one said no more words. With a smile, Xia Huanyu said, "No one else? nothing


    else? Then Vice Minister Su wins? "


    Princess Tai An also smiled, "my sister-inw really came from a literary family, each of your siblings is


    super talented."


    Yun Shang''s eyes fell on the young man. He didn''t have a good looking, but had arrogant eyes and


    looked down upon Princess Tai An''spliments.


    A maid walked up to Yun Shang with a wine pot in her hand at this time. Seeing that Yun Shang''s cup


    was empty, she bowed to her.


    "Wait!" Qingyan shouted, everyone in the garden turned to looked at him. Hearing that, a faint smile


    yed at the corners of Xia Huanyus mouth. He looked at him and said in a soft voice, "did Prince Rui


    Luo Qingyan seemed to be stunned, ncing at the people on the table, and smiled. "I''m sorry, I don''t


    want to join thepetition. I just saw that the maid was pouring wine for my wife, so I asked her to


    wait. My wife has just recovered from illness, and it''s not proper for her to drink. Please


    change it to tea instead. Well, you all can continue... "


    All the people at the table had different expressions on their faces. They looked at the maid who was


    bending over to pour wine for Yun Shang. Being stared at like this, the maid was a little nervous. As the


    wine pot was tilted, she spilled the wine on the table. The color drained from the maid''s face when she


    saw the scene in front of her. She knelt down before Yun Shang, and apologized, "please forgive me,


    your highness! I didn''t mean it! Please forgive me!"

    There was a sudden silence at the table. With a "snap", Luo Qingyan''s ss was thrown on the table


    and he looked at the maid with a hostile look. The maid trembled more and more.


    Yun Shang saw that the atmosphere was a little cold, so she smiled softly. She turned and helped that


    maid stand up, "I''m fine. It''s not your fault. Did his highness frighten you?"


    The maid stood unsteadily, and the empress said slowly, "She should be punished for what she did."


    "Your Majesty, it is clear that the sudden order of Prince Jing scared the maid. If the maid were to be


    punished, his highness would be punished more severely. The maid is innocent." Yun Shang looked up


    at Luo Qingyan, who sat opposite her with a cold face.


    Xia Huanyu pondered for a moment before he said, "it should be a good thing for Prince Rui to return.


    Since it is a good thing, we should not spoil the atmosphere because of a small thing. Just


    get the maid out of here."


    The maid kowtowed to them and withdrew quickly. Yun Shang''s eyes darkened when she looked at the


    spilled wine on the table.
