"Lianqiao, Liu'er, remember what I told you. The fun is about to begin."

"Yes." The two of them immediately perked up and were ready at all times.

When Jianqiu came back, she gave her a beautifully embroidered handkerchief, "This is embroidered by my own hands, I hope Your Majesty will accept it."

Yi Xin took it and exclaimed as she looked at it, "I didn't expect Aunt Jianqiu's embroidery skills to be so exquisite. The scent of this handkerchief is also nice. I like it very much."

"As long as your Majesty likes it."

The other side of the flower viewing banquet.

"This peony is in full bloom, but it is only pink, which is a secondary color after all and cannot be displayed in a formal hall."

Hua Fei turned around and plucked a peony flower. "It's not as good as this peony. Although it's not the king of flowers, its bright red color is eye-catching. This is the proper color for elegance. Pink is used by concubines, and only the proper red and bright red are used by the official."

She looked at the queen's gradually solidified face and laughed out loud, "In fact, as long as a person is young, does it matter what color the flower in his hair is?"

This time, without Zhen Huan reciting Liu Yuxi's "Appreciating Peonies", the Queen felt like she was being roasted on fire, losing both her dignity and her face.

Fortunately, Concubine Xin couldn't bear it and stepped forward to ridicule Concubine Hua for not distinguishing between superiors and subordinates, which made Concubine Hua so angry that she jumped to her feet.

Jianqiu had been keeping an eye on that place, waiting for the Queen's hint to take Yixin over there.

When Jianqiu saw the Queen being ridiculed by Concubine Hua, she almost wanted to rush over, but she still remembered what the Queen had asked her to do, so she could only hold back her anger and watch the Queen being humiliated.

After a while, Jianqiu finally received the Queen's signal, "Today's weather is really nice."

"Since Her Majesty the Queen said the weather is good, why don't you bring Songzi out?" Concubine Qi said with a smile.

"The cat that Concubine Qi loves the most is Songzi. Well, Huichun, go and get Songzi out."

Jianqiu glanced at Yi Xin who was sitting leisurely, a hint of viciousness flashed in her eyes, but she leaned down and said with a smile: "How is your Majesty resting? I saw that the Queen was talking about something, and it was very lively. Do you want to go and have a look?"

"Then go and have a look."

This time, Yi Xin walked to a position about one meter away from the queen before standing still. "What are the sisters talking about?"

The queen hesitated and wanted to move away from her, but when she saw the handkerchief in her hand, she felt relieved.

Concubine Qi really liked Songzi, so she stepped out to explain, "We are talking about the Queen's cat named Songzi, which is furry, soft, and cute. Concubine Qiong has never seen Songzi, you must take a look later."

So a few people started chatting about pets.

A moment later, Yi Xin saw Songzi running out of the hall and jumping onto the stone pillar next to them.

Yi Xin knew that the time was coming.

So she also imitated Jianqiu's actions just now, staggered and sat on the ground, and threw the handkerchief in her hand at the queen's face, and very "coincidentally" it got caught on the hairpin on her head.

The queen was so frightened that she hurriedly tried to pull down the veil, but Yi Xin would never give her that chance.

Seeing that Songzi was about to rush over, Yi Xin grabbed the queen's right hand and said, "Your Majesty, my leg is cramping."

The queen was still holding the pink peony in her left hand, so she was unable to react in time and use her other hand.

Yi Xin moved quickly, and Songzi ran even faster. Jianqiu and Huichun had no time to do anything before they saw Songzi pounce on the queen's face and scratch the handkerchief desperately, leaving a large spot of blood on it.

"Ah!" It was the queen's miserable cry, and soon the sound stopped abruptly. She must have fainted from fright.

"Queen!"

Everyone shouted loudly, but they didn't dare to move forward. It was because Songzi's manic appearance was too scary.

Jianqiu was loyal to her master, but as soon as she stepped forward, she was scratched by Songzi's claws, and three cuts appeared on the back of her hand instantly, making her grimace in pain.

But even so, she still stepped forward and tried to get the pine nuts down.

Seeing that the blood on the handkerchief was about to drip down, Yi Xin winked at Liu'er beside her.

Liu'er understood and grabbed Songzi's neck with one hand to prevent him from moving. With the other hand, she picked up the handkerchief covering the queen's face. The queen's rotten face instantly appeared in front of everyone.

Everyone took a step back in fear, and after taking a few breaths, they all rushed to the queen's side. Some were really worried about the queen, some wanted to see the queen's fun, and some had their own selfish motives.

For example, An Lingrong took the opportunity to get close to the Queen, and in the name of concern, she kicked the Queen's knees hard several times with the bottom of a flower pot while no one was paying attention.

"Oh my god!" It was Concubine Hua's exaggerated cry, with a tone of gloating, "Could the Queen be disfigured?"

Lian Qiao helped Yi Xin sit down on a chair nearby, then squatted down and rubbed her calves.

Jianqiu and the others quickly carried the unconscious queen into the palace.

Jianqiu didn't want the queen to be laughed at by them, so she immediately surrounded the main hall with Jiang Fuhai and others, not allowing anyone to approach.

Concubine Hua wanted to force her way in, but she brought two maids, Songzhi and Lingzhi, with her, so there was no way she could get in.

I can only give up in disappointment.

But no one left, whether they wanted to watch the fun or laugh at the joke.

When the Queen Mother was injured, the concubines had to come and take care of her. Even if they couldn't get in, they had to wait at the door.

Although Concubine Hua was happy to see the Queen's miserable appearance, as a concubine holding the power in the palace, she had to stand up and take charge of the situation at this time.

"Songzhi, go and ask the Queen Mother to come over."

Then he glanced at everyone and asked, "What happened just now?"

Lipin: "I saw that the pine nut was flying straight towards the Queen."

Concubine Cao rolled her eyes and landed on Yi Xin's face, saying meaningfully, "Why do I feel that Songzi was going for Concubine Qiong's handkerchief? It was just that the handkerchief fell on the Queen's face, and that's why the Queen was hurt."

Everyone turned their eyes to Yi Xin again, and Yi Xin waved her hands innocently.

"Why are you all looking at me? I didn't do anything. Besides, that handkerchief was given to me by Aunt Jianqiu. She got my handkerchief wet when she was pouring tea just now, so she gave me another one as compensation. If you don't believe me, check it out. None of the maids in my palace can make the embroidery pattern on this handkerchief."

Upon hearing this, Liu'er took out the handkerchief and deliberately passed it over Songzi's little head. Songzi instantly became angry again.

Now what else is there that people don't understand?

Hua Fei laughed a few times and pointed it out directly, "It turns out that the one inside is the one who stole the chicken but ended up losing the rice!"

Concubine Qi always thought that the Queen was the most virtuous and generous person, and that she definitely did not do this, so she defended the Queen and pointed angrily at Yi Xin.

"How can you prove that this handkerchief was given to you by Jianqiu? I can see that it is clearly yours. Are you trying to wrongly accuse the queen?"

"Anyway, I'm not afraid of being investigated. When I went out today, Aunt Fangcao personally helped me put on my clothes and handkerchief. Aunt Fangcao also manages my clothes and jewelry. Does Concubine Qi suspect that Aunt Fangcao wants to harm the Queen? Oh, that's not right. Jianqiu gave me that handkerchief. Is she trying to harm me and the baby in my belly?"

Yi Xin immediately pretended to be scared.

At this time, Concubine Xin played the role of a mouthpiece and stood up.

"When Aunt Jianqiu gave Concubine Qiong a handkerchief, I saw it. Concubine Chun and Concubine An were right next to me, so they should have seen it too, don't you think?"

Not to mention that An Lingrong really saw it, even if she didn't see it she would say that she saw it. She hated the Queen to death.

Chun Changzai might have been frightened. She was stunned for a moment, turned her head and looked in the direction of the main hall. As if she had made a decision, she also nodded, "Chun Er did see it."
