Chapter 463: Envy, Envy, Hate
Although he lost a lot of money, the next day, Concubine Bai and Duan Liangdi came again.
This time, the two of them chose a position that was more favorable to them.
Concubine Li still looked full of confidence, and her desire for victory or defeat was almost overwhelming.
Unfortunately, she failed to win the money today, but was defeated by Concubine Bai and Duan Liangdi's practice, and all the silver bills she brought were lost.
The 300 taels of silver bills she won yesterday were not hot yet, so she exported them again today.
She felt very unwilling!
She glared at Concubine Bai and Duan Liangdi: "You two actually practice to bully one of me, it's unfair!"
Concubine Bai smiled slightly: "Look at what my sister said, there are always wins and losses on the poker table, which is normal."
Duan Liangdi actually doesn't care about this little money, but she likes this feeling of winning.
Especially when Duan Liangdi saw Concubine Li's angry look, she felt a delicate sense of balance in her heart. Even if she fell out of favor, it did not mean that she would not be able to do anything else.
Take this mahjong for example, she may not be worse than others.
The next day, the four of them gathered together in the Qingge Hall.
Yao Zhaoxun came after the start.
When Yao Zhaoxun came in, he saw the four people sitting by the table and was stunned.
She never expected that Concubine Xiao could actually play with Concubine Li, Concubine Bai, and Duan Liangdi.
Putting aside the grievances between Concubine Li and Concubine Xiao, just take Concubine Bai as an example. She was taken away by Concubine Xiao before in charge of the internal affairs of the Eastern Palace. Concubine Xiao later gave Concubine Bai a warning. Logically speaking, the conflict between the two of them must be very deep, but now seeing how they are playing cards together, they can't tell at all that they have any grudges!
There is also Duan Liangdi. Hasn’t she completely lost favor and become a transparent person? Why did she suddenly emerge again?
No matter how you look at it, the combination of the four people in front of you is full of strange feeling.
Xiao Xixi asked: "Why are you here?"
Yao Zhaoxun was blessed with blessings: "I came to talk to you. I didn't expect that there were so many people here. Am I disturbing you?"
Xiao Xixi: "It's okay, you've come here, come and sit down."
There were four people at a table, and there was no other space left. Yao Zhaoxun consciously brought a soft cushion and placed it behind Concubine Xiao, and then sat down carefully.
Baoqin put a small table next to Yao Zhaoxun, and then put some fruits and flower tea on the table.
Yao Zhaoxun was drinking tea while watching Concubine Xiao play cards.
Xiao Xixi asked casually: "Why did you suddenly think of coming to me today? Is something wrong outside?"
She knew Yao Zhaoxun, this woman loved gossip the most, and every time she came to her, she would take her to eat melons.
Yao Zhaoxun immediately said: "Yesterday, the Empress Dowager called Miss Xie to Changle Palace again."
Concubine Li took the lead in asking: "Who is Miss Xie?"
Yao Zhaoxun: "It's Xie Chuxue, the adopted daughter of King Xiling. I heard that she is very beautiful, like a fairy."
Concubine Li sneered disdainfully: "Some people said that Qin Fengyi was the number one beauty in Shengjing, but what was the result? She looked like that."
Concubine Bai tried to ask: "I heard that the Queen Mother intended to let the prince marry Miss Xie? Is this true?"
Yao Zhaoxun nodded and said yes.
Concubine Li paused to touch the card: "The prince really likes Miss Xie?"
Even Duan Liangdi raised her head and looked at Yao Zhaoxun, obviously very concerned about this issue.
Yao Zhaoxun shook his head and said he didn't know.
With her ability, she could only find out at most that the Empress Dowager intended to let the Prince marry Xie Chuxue, but she could not find out the details.
At this time, Concubine Bai looked at Concubine Xiao and asked softly: "The prince loves you so much, I must have told you about Miss Xie, right?"
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone else looked at Xiao Xixi in unison.
Xiao Xixi held her cheek with one hand, and her fingers casually passed over the mahjong, and said lazily: "The prince did not agree."
The simple five words immediately made everyone present relieve.
Fortunately, the prince did not agree, otherwise they would have had multiple competitors.
Concubine Bai played a card casually and sighed as if she was envious: "Sister Xiao is worthy of being the most favored among us. Only you are qualified to know about such things."
This suddenly brought everyone's hatred to Concubine Xiao.
Even Yao Zhaoxun couldn't help but secretly envy, jealousy and hatred in his heart.
Xiao Xixi: "I don't know if I'm pampering or not. I only know that you lost this game."
She picked up the card that Concubine Bai had just played, put it in her card, and then pushed the mahjong forward, Thirteen!
Concubine Bai's face changed slightly.
Concubine Li seized the opportunity to take the blame: "You are not focused when playing cards and even deliberately speak sour words. Now you are suffering!"
Xiao Xixi tapped the table with her finger: "Give money."
This game was made by Concubine Bai, and she got all the money.
This is not a small amount.
Looking at the silver notes taken away by Concubine Xiao, Concubine Bai pursed her lower lips and felt secretly annoyed.
Everyone concentrate on playing mahjong.
Yao Zhaoxun took the opportunity to eat two pieces of pastry.
It is difficult for her to eat such a good thing in normal times, and only by Concubine Xiao can she benefit from it.
After Yao Zhaoxun finished the pastry, he took a sip of tea and said, "Miss Xie entered the palace yesterday, the empress dowager was left in Changle Palace by the empress dowager. He said that the empress dowager liked Miss Xie very much and wanted her to accompany her forever."
Originally, she thought the Queen Mother wanted to take the opportunity to match Xie Chuxue and the prince, but the prince did not agree, so this matter should not be done.
In this way, the reason why Xie Chuxue was left in the palace is worth pondering.
Concubine Li did not hide her rejection of Xie Chuxie and said disdainfully: "The Empress Dowager probably wants to choose someone from the princes to marry her."
Concubine Bai said, "This is not necessarily the case. Although Miss Xie is the adopted daughter of King Xiling, she is just an adopted daughter. Compared with her biological grandson, she must be more important. How could the Empress Dowager let an outsider pick among the princes?"
Duan Liangdi continued: "Maybe as the Empress Dowager said, she just kept her by her side because she liked Miss Xie."
Concubine Li tskated: "As long as she doesn't marry to the East Palace, it has nothing to do with me, so I'm too lazy to worry about this leisure!"
Xiao Xixi pushed the mahjong forward: "I'm not bad, all of them."
Everyone paused.
They looked at Concubine Xiao in one go, and she was indeed deceptive again!
The other three people on the table were speechless.
Concubine Li complained while paying for money: "Why do you win every time?"
Xiao Xixi took the silver notes from them and said happily: "There is no way, I am so lucky that I can't stop them."
Today, Concubine Li lost the most.
All the silver notes she brought were lost.
What's worse is that her savings are not much.
She said sadly and angryly: "I feel so poor."
