Red Mansion Rebirth: Ghost Phoenix

However, the meal at Yi Qiu Palace was not so smooth.

He Ke and Tao Ge'er were having a great time playing together, not wanting to eat, but also not wanting to separate.

The Crown Princess coaxed them again and again before finally allowing them to eat at the same table and use the same small pot. The two children then chatted and laughed while being dragged away to wash their hands and sit down.

The meal dragged on and on until three o'clock in the afternoon, when Wang Xifeng was already starving, and the meal had just begun.

This practice of everyone eating their own food is indeed very comfortable.

Wang Xifeng even ordered the kitchen to put all the vegetables on plates, and whoever liked something could ask the maid to take it. This way, the embarrassment of forcing someone to eat something they didn't like could be avoided.

At this, even the Crown Princess, who had been sitting in one place for the whole morning, felt delighted. She came down to the table where the vegetables were placed, selected the dishes herself, and praised Wang Xifeng:

"Wang Chenghui is young and smart after all. He is very knowledgeable and experienced, which is far inferior to us. Is it because he traveled a lot when he was young?"

Wang Xifeng laughed and said with great gratitude: "You are right, Crown Princess. When I was young, I went to Guangzhou with my parents for a trip. So after I came back, I couldn't tell the difference between north and south in terms of food, toys and daily necessities!"

"That's why they say, reading ten thousand books and traveling ten thousand miles. Your perspective and perspective will naturally be different." The Crown Princess sighed, pointed to four or five plates of her favorite dishes, and slowly walked to her seat.

Wang Xifeng looked back and saw the cushion with gold-woven purple satin and peacock embroidered on it. She knew that it was the cushion that the Crown Princess had specially brought from Cheng'en Hall. She was afraid that she would not be able to sit on anything else except this one.

Before he could finish his thought, a laugh suddenly came from outside the palace: "The Crown Princess is hosting a banquet for all the concubines, why did she leave me out?!"

Wu Liangyuan!

Wang Xifeng finally understood where her uneasiness this morning came from.

From last night's incident until this moment, she actually forgot to ask Brother Crow to check on this person!

Has she played herself to the point where everyone is ignoring her?

Then why did she jump out at this moment?

"Greetings to the Crown Princess, may the Queen be blessed." The corners of Wu Liangyuan's mouth curved into a deep arc, and her charming eyes now emitted a cold light.

Tao Ge'er accidentally met them, and was so frightened that he lost his grip on the spoon, and the spoon fell into the bowl. He grabbed his sister with his little hand and hid behind He Ke.

He Ke was surprised, and when he turned around to look, Wu Liangyuan had already started talking to the Crown Princess with a smile.

"I was just in a good mood and came to Yiqiu Palace to avoid the fumigation and let Brother Tao and Heke play together. This is not a formal banquet.

“Besides, when I came here, I was the guest, and these three were the hosts. They were the ones who invited me to dinner.

"If Wu Liangyuan wants to find fault, she should find fault with them. Why did she come to me?" The Crown Princess explained with a smile and in a kind and gentle manner.

Wu Liangyuan hid her sleeves and smiled: "Your Majesty is right. In this case, I will go and cause trouble for them!"

She turned to look at the other two, with a fierce look in her eyes and a raised mouth. "Come on, you three, tell me, whose idea was it to invite the Crown Princess to a banquet but exclude me?"

Mei Ruoqin felt annoyed and wondered how she could have forgotten this person. She felt that she was in the wrong and didn't know how to make peace for a moment.

Geng Simiao was even more flustered. He looked at Mei Ruoqin, then Wang Xifeng, then Wang Xifeng and then Mei Ruoqin in a panic.

Wang Xifeng smiled and stepped forward to perform a standard bow: "I am Wang Chenghui, and I pay my respects to Liang Yuan. It is our first meeting, and I wish Liang Yuan the best of luck."

Wu Liangyuan then looked at her in surprise: "Oh, you are the Wang who was sealed in the palace to observe mourning. But, wasn't it your grandmother who died?

"You are a woman, a concubine who has married off, and not the heir of a family. If it is not enough for you to wait for one year, why did you wait for three years?

"Moreover, the so-called three years of mourning is actually twenty-seven months. You haven't been unsealed for twenty-seven months, and you haven't been unsealed for three years. It seems that you have been sealed for three years and three months?"

Everyone could see that Wu Liangyuan didn't like Wang Xifeng.

I don't like to use the word "death" openly in front of others to refer to their deceased elders.

He Ke's face suddenly became tense, and he stood up and was about to go to Wang Xifeng.

Wang Xifeng stopped her in her tracks with a glance, and smiled, saying, "In reply to Liang Yuan, I was conferred the title of Imperial Concubine for three years in compliance with the order of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

"His Royal Highness said that I am the eldest granddaughter of the eldest son's family and grew up under my grandmother's care. In addition, I have to accompany the princess to show my filial piety to her biological mother, so I might as well observe the mourning period and study for three years.

"If Liang Yuan feels that this is inappropriate, why not wait until your grandmother dies and ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince how you should observe the mourning rules!"

Wu Liangyuan's face turned pale with anger: "How dare you! My grandmother is the Princess of Kangle County. Even the Crown Prince has to call her Grandmother! How dare you curse her like this!?"

"I didn't curse! Besides, I'm uneducated and don't know these etiquettes. I just use the same words as Liang Yuan."

Wang Xifeng looked at her calmly, "Liangyuan feels that I am wrong, so let's go to the emperor and argue with him!"

"You are so shameless! Do you think you are worthy enough to go to the emperor?" Wu Liangyuan laughed and pointed at the Crown Princess. "The mistress is here. You are just a concubine. Just let her make the decision!"

At this moment, the black cat suddenly came out from behind He Ke, squatted beside He Ke, looked at Wang Xifeng, gurgled in its throat, and tapped the ground with its tail, looking extremely impatient.

Wang Xifeng raised her eyebrows and immediately said without waiting for the Crown Princess to speak, "Liang Yuan just said it herself, even if it's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he should call your grandmother "Grand Aunt", so shouldn't the Crown Princess be the same?

"You brought this matter to the Crown Princess, aren't you just trying to bully me and the Crown Princess together?

"You just said that the Crown Princess is the mistress and I am a concubine, so aren't you also a concubine?!

"Or, you came to our Yiqiu Palace and acted so aggressively towards other concubines in front of our mistress, have you already considered yourself the mistress of the East Palace?

"What do you base your judgment on? On your grandmother? Or on the touch of your upper lip to your lower lip?

“Are you worthy?

"Our Eastern Palace's Crown Princess isn't dead yet, is it your turn to be here shouting and making trouble?!

“Still judging?

"The manner and courtesy you used when speaking to the Crown Princess just now would have been taken away and beaten with a stick if it were someone else! You've already given your grandmother a lot of face, don't be so ungrateful!"

How could Wu Liangyuan endure such a scolding?

He immediately flew into a rage, pointed at Wang Xifeng's nose, and shouted, "Come here, slap her in the face!"

The Crown Princess had been watching for a long time, but now she spoke coldly: "Wu Liangyuan, did you hear what Wang Chenghui said just now?

"I'm not dead yet, East Palace Back Palace, when will it be your turn to make the decision?"

Wang Xifeng was eager to try, and she lifted her cloak to reveal the whip wrapped around her waist: "Madam, let her beat me! Stand further away and watch me whip her until she is worn out..."

"Cough cough!"

The prince's voice interrupted Wang Xifeng's excitement.

Wu Liangyuan's face suddenly changed.
