Chapter 156 Make a mistake
Why did the emperor come?

Everyone was shocked.

Yu Lantao stood up quickly, looked left and right nervously, "Cousin, should we hide?"

"Why are you hiding? As a concubine, I invite a few noble ladies to the palace to listen to an opera. What's wrong with him? You all stay here and don't run around, and pay your respects with me later." Bu Yao, frowning slightly, seemed to be mocking himself, "Besides, whether he comes or not has nothing to do with me."

"Yes."

Jiang Xian and Yu Lantao looked at each other, followed Yubi and others to kneel outside the hall to welcome them.

The sound of trampling footsteps gradually came, Jiang Xian knelt at the end of the crowd, and caught a glimpse of bright yellow out of the corner of her eye.

She quickly raised her eyes and looked at the old emperor up close for the first time.

Emperor Xianqing's face was old and his hair was gray, perhaps because of his status. He was wearing a five-clawed golden dragon robe and a crown exquisitely inlaid with pearls, giving people an invisible oppression.

"My concubine welcomes the emperor."

Jiang Xian thought that the emperor would have a private conversation with the jade concubine, holding hands and entering the palace to be courteous and so on.Unexpectedly, when Emperor Xianqing saw this scene, he only glanced at it lightly, and asked calmly, "Concubine Yu is listening to an opera again?"

"I have nothing to do, so I invite my sisters into the palace to relieve boredom." Yubi respectfully.

"It's also good."

Emperor Xianqing seemed not interested in Yubi and his gang.

He went straight to the large garden of the palace, and raised his hand to caress the leaves of a pot of rhododendrons, "How are these pots of rhododendrons? Will they bloom next year?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, through this winter, the flowers will surely bloom."

"Can a different color grow out?"

"The concubine has been trying."

Emperor Xianqing stood up straight, and the eunuch Bingbi next to him handed him a cotton handkerchief.While wiping his hands, he looked at the large flower garden, "Concubine Yu, you have worked hard to take care of the flowers and plants all these years."

After finishing speaking, Emperor Xianqing threw the handkerchief to Eunuch Bingbi.The eunuch Bingbi winked at the little maid holding the vase behind her, "Cut some Clivia sprigs."

The little maid took out the scissors, picked out a few beautiful Clivia sprigs, cut off the flowers, and put them in the vase as instructed.

Concubine Yu was not surprised when she saw this scene, she smiled and said: "The concubine is just raising grass and planting flowers, how can it be compared to the emperor who manages every day. Being able to share the burden for the emperor is the blessing of the concubine's tenth generation."

Emperor Xianqing praised: "You are a virtuous person."

At this moment, the little maid who was holding the vase slipped her hands and dropped the vase on the ground, the porcelain fragments were torn apart.The little palace maid's lips were pale, she screamed, she was so frightened that she quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Your Majesty, calm down! Your Majesty, calm down! Your Majesty, calm down!"

"Good you bastard!" The eunuch Bingbi next to Emperor Xianqing got angry, and kept beating the little palace lady with his dust whisk, "It's nothing to kill you bastard, how dare you break the vase of Lord Long Live, punish me!" You Nine Clans are not exaggerated! You..."

"Okay, okay." Emperor Xianqing's face turned livid.

He waved his hand and closed his eyes irritably, "Drag on."

"Your Majesty, spare your life! Your Majesty, spare your life—" the little maid screamed hoarsely, but her strength was too weak, and she was dragged away by the two eunuchs on the left and right.

Jiang Xian didn't dare to vent her anger.

Her mind was a little muddled, and she didn't dare to imagine what happened to the little palace lady who broke the vase. She was sorry, sympathetic and angry, but she must not stand up rashly and foolishly intercede.

Her identity is inappropriate, and her position is inappropriate. In the feudal society, she can only turn a blind eye.

Emperor Xianqing bent down and picked up a porcelain vase, wiped the non-existent dust on it repeatedly, and muttered to himself, "He is like this vase, he will never come back..."

Immediately, without looking at Yupin and the others, he picked up a few Clivia sprigs and left slowly.

Yupin was not surprised.

She knelt in front of the palace gate with no expression on her face, and said "Respectfully send off Your Majesty".After the emperor left, he started to listen to the play again, as if the appearance of Emperor Xianqing just now was just an illusion.

Jiang Xian knew it wasn't.

In just a short while, the little court lady who broke the vase has...

She closed her eyes and sighed softly.
