Although the emperor's words were very plain, Concubine Li felt that it was a satire on her, especially when she saw Concubine Li who was smiling happily, her face suddenly turned cold.

The emperor actually mentioned in front of so many people that he has been living in the Furong Palace for the past few days. This is obviously a fight for Concubine Li Gui in front of everyone. In this way, Concubine Li Gui will definitely suppress her even more unscrupulously in the future .

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Her pretty face, which was originally pink and tender, was now livid with anger, and the fingers of both hands were firmly digging at her palms. He gritted his teeth with hatred.

Leng Yu clasped his hands together and solemnly replied:

"Father, the royal garden has been newly decorated. You will be in a happy mood when you see me later. After admiring the flowers and scenery, I will arrange for some of the royal heirs to present their talents to you. Today's luncheon will be held as scheduled. A standard dinner is prepared for a grand ceremony in the palace. In the afternoon, the ministers' families will perform dances to add to the fun. When the moon is full, everyone will enjoy the moon together. There will be pastries, fruits, and moon cakes for everyone to enjoy. In addition, My son has also prepared fireworks, which will be set off when the moon is full..."

Listening to Leng Yu's introduction, the emperor nodded with satisfaction. Since his illness, he has become more and more satisfied with Leng Yu's work.

"Okay, Yu'er is doing business, I don't worry, Liu Xi, move to the imperial garden, I'm going to enjoy the flowers and scenery."

Liu Xi hurriedly raised his voice and shouted loudly:

"The emperor has a decree, everyone moves to control the garden."

After everyone heard the words, they rushed to the sides one after another to make way for the emperor. Just as the emperor was about to get up, Concubine Li Gui suddenly stood up from the chair, without any explanation, came to the emperor and knelt down, accusing with a serious face:

"Your Majesty, I heard that the Emperor has been lingering in Furong Palace recently. I have some doubts in my heart. Please allow me to speak out."

The emperor's brows were directly twisted into the word Sichuan, and he looked at her with displeasure in his eyes,

"Today, the Mid-Autumn Festival reunion day, don't disturb everyone's good interest, if it's not a very important matter, let's talk about it later, I am in a hurry to enjoy the flowers."

Hearing Concubine Li Gui mentioned Furong Palace, Concubine Li Gui's face became extremely quiet. It seemed that what Concubine Li Gui wanted to say had something to do with her Furong Palace.

Recently, she has been staying honestly in Furong Palace, so she shouldn't have caught anything?What is she trying to say?

Concubine Li saw that the emperor didn't want to hear her finish her sentence, so she said reluctantly:

"Your Majesty, the reason why I want to speak out now is because there have been a lot of rumors in the harem recently. For the sake of the royal family's face, and in order to stop everyone from talking, I want to speak out about this while everyone is here. It also prevents everyone from maliciously speculating behind the scenes, please allow the emperor."

After listening to Concubine Li's words, everyone began to whisper something among themselves, and Luo Lan even looked at Leng Yu with puzzled eyes.

What kind of trouble is this Concubine Li going to make?

The emperor's face became as cold as ice in an instant.

He raised his hand impatiently,

"Speak quickly, don't disturb everyone's interest."

Obviously, the emperor had already reminded her for the second time, asking her not to say anything that would affect his mood at this time.

I don't know if Concubine Li really didn't hear it, or if she deliberately pretended not to understand.

She tightened her throat and said with a serious face:

"The concubine heard gossip from someone in the harem, so she sent someone to inquire, and it turned out that the reason why the emperor has been infatuated with Furong Palace recently is because there is a special pot in Furong Palace. It can heat and cook meat and vegetables. Out of curiosity, the concubine ordered someone to inquire. It turned out that Concubine Li Gui had never been out of Furong Palace during this period of time. The pot seemed to come out of nowhere. The concubine finds it very strange. The most important thing is that as far as the concubine knows, Concubine Li Gui does not know how to cook. Fascinated, the concubine wondered if Concubine Li Gui was possessed by something? Or, did she learn some kind of unknown sorcery?"

After listening to her words, Luo Lan couldn't help but lift up her veil, covering her mouth and snickering. How could the always smart Concubine Li ask such a stupid question in public?

Leng Yu also looked at her and shrugged helplessly.

There was no expression on the emperor's face, he looked sideways at Concubine Li Gui who was sitting there blushing, and said in a deep voice:

"Aifei, please explain this matter!"

In fact, the emperor was quite curious about the pot, but after asking several times, Concubine Li Gui was unwilling to tell him the source of the pot, and after a long time, he didn't bother to ask again.

Since Concubine Li raised her doubts on this occasion today, it was a good opportunity to ask Concubine Li to explain the origin of the pot.

Concubine Li Gui's expression was a little nervous, she came before the emperor, knelt timidly, and replied in a low voice:

"Emperor... Your Majesty, my concubine... my concubine..."

Seeing that Concubine Li Gui was speechless, Concubine Li Gui was even more sure that there must be something wrong with Concubine Li Gui, so she struck while the iron was hot and continued:

"Concubine Li, everyone is here today. Please explain this matter clearly so that everyone will not make wild guesses behind their backs. This will not only hurt your reputation, but also insult the emperor's reputation."

Seeing Concubine Li's aggressive posture, Luo Lan just wanted to step forward to explain, but Leng Yu shook her head to stop her.

He winked at her, and Luo Lan stopped moving forward.

Concubine Li Gui knelt on the spot, her face flushed red, she seemed a little embarrassed.

Seeing this, the emperor frowned, raised his voice impatiently and asked:

"Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. I am in a hurry to enjoy the flowers. If I have something to say, hurry up."

Concubine Li Gui clenched her teeth, and said directly:

"If I get back to the emperor, this pot and this dish were... made by Princess Yu and my concubine."

Princess Yu?

As soon as her words fell, everyone turned their eyes to Luo Lan, and Concubine Li looked at Yesterday in astonishment.

Why did this matter have something to do with Princess Yu again?Why is this woman involved in everything?Is she haunted?

Concubine Li Gui turned her head to look at Luo Lan in embarrassment,

"Princess Yu, I'm sorry..."

Luo Lan shook her head freely,

"It's nothing. Concubine Li Gui is telling the truth. Father, this pot was indeed brought to her by my minister. A few days ago, I heard that Concubine Li Gui didn't think about eating and drinking. She was so hungry that she lost a lot of weight. My son I wanted to get her something she likes to eat, but I didn't expect to be favored by you, father, by accident..."

Concubine Li Gui would not believe her explanation at all, she stared at Princess Yu, shook her head vigorously,

"No, it's impossible. Concubine Yu must be making excuses for Concubine Li Gui. Your Majesty, please look into it."

Looking at Concubine Li's hysterical shout, Luo Lan lifted her lips slightly, and continued in a slow voice:

"If Concubine Li doesn't believe it, you can ask the guard who guarded the gate three days ago to testify. That day I brought A Cai, A Hong, and two men into the palace, and the guard who guarded the gate personally inspected it. , he must have a memory."

Speaking of the guards guarding the gate, beads of sweat rolled down Concubine Li's forehead.

In the past few days, she sent someone to ask the guard at the gate, but those people said that no one had ever seen such a strange pot. Could it be that the guard at the gate lied?

So she suddenly sneered,

"Hmph, I sent someone to ask the guard at the gate. No one has ever seen this pot. If someone says someone has seen it now, then I have to wonder if Prince Yu will have colluded with the so-called guard in advance. How about cheating and deceiving people together?"
