Chapter 61:
Reluctantly at this banquet, people came and went, so many eyes were watching, even if Furong wanted to do something, she couldn’t find a chance.
In addition, seeing that Prince of Wa country was not her ideal, she was still somewhat reluctant to take the initiative to do something.
Slowly, like Linglong, he started to eat. The banquet was ordered by the empress to be carefully prepared. The food on the banquet was naturally very delicious.
It was just that even after she finished the plate of splendid meat on her table, she was still a little bit unsatisfied. After all, the portions of these dishes were not too much.
Then she stared at the plate on the table next to Linglong.
This dish was something that both sisters liked to eat, and it was no secret in the palace.
But when Furong ate, she always liked to eat what she liked first, while Linglong tended to eat something she didn’t like, but she still ate it first, saving her favorite for last.
Father said that children should not be picky eaters.
Therefore, at this moment, the plate of meat on the Linglong table had not moved at all.
“Sister Linglong, if you don’t like this meat, please give it to me.”
As Furong said, she stretched out her hand first, and she didn’t mean to ask Linglong’s permission at all.
She had been used to this since she was a child, anyway, no matter what, as long as she wanted, Linglong couldn’t and didn’t dare to stop her.
The dish of splendid meat, as long as the two appear together on occasions, almost all of them were hers, unless she did not eat it, only then, Linglong could eat it.
“Sister Furong, this dish is my favorite. Sister Furong will not take it from her sister, right?”
Ever since Furong drove her father out of the palace, Linglong has been completely chilled towards her sister, and naturally she was not willing to give in to each other as she used to.
Father told her that Furong was bitter in her heart and was a pitiful person, so she had to let Furong do everything, and sooner or later Furong would understand her kindness.
But the fact was that Furong didn’t know what kindness was at all.
No matter how nice Linglong and her father were to Furong, Furong did not appreciate it. Instead, she recognized the thief as her father and helped others to persecute her father.
She could forgive the mother Empress who already knew repentance, and ran to her father several times to ask her father to forgive her, but Linglong couldn’t forgive her for hurting her father, and she didn’t know repentance at all. On the contrary, she felt that it was a very proud thing to drive Linglong and her father out of the palace.
“If It’s your favorite, why don’t you eat it?”
Furong had never thought that Linglong would object, she had already stretched out her hand, just came back empty-handed, how embarrassing? So many people were watching!
With a dry laugh, she said.
“Not everyone is the same as the emperor sister. Good things must be devoured. Good things need to be cherished. It should stay at the end and taste slowly.”
After Linglong said that, she stretched out her hand and moved the plate of splendid meat on the far side, where Furong couldn’t reach it.
Then slowly picked up the chopsticks, picked up the meat, and really savored it little by little.
But, she was obviously afraid that Furong would try to grab it again, so she ate it quickly.
“Ha~~ It’s just a plate of meat, my sister is so stingy…”
After being slapped in the face by Linglong like this, Furong felt very embarrassed and said it jokingly while snorting and looking around nervously to see if anyone had noticed them..
This Linglong was too embarrassing! This was the royal banquet, just for a plate of meat, she let others look at the jokes of the two of them, unfortunately they didn’t know, and they thought they were so poor in Dale country!
The two princesses actually even created a small fuss over a plate of meat.
It was really confusing why the mother Empress wanted Linglong to attend such a banquet.
“Yes, it’s just a plate of meat, why does sister Furong have to come and grab her sister’s? Just ask the cook to make another one.”
Linglong didn’t intend to just take the blame, it was all now in the past, it was obvious that every time Furong bullied her first, but she still had to suffer silently and carry all the blame.
Now, she didn’t plan to give Furong a face, but she didn’t plan to bully her casually.
Why?
Once upon a time she was her own royal sister, she gave in and helped.
Now that she could even drive her biological father out of the palace, what was the use of this royal sister thing?
It would be better if they were not sisters at all.
“You ……”
Furong didn’t expect that Linglong, who had always been submissive in front of her, and who was always looking at her back, would have such a sharp tongue, not even giving her a step to take.
She had to swallow the embarrassment by herself. Did she have to be so reluctant and make a fool of herself in public?
How could there be a princess who was so gluttonous, one serving was not enough, and she wanted to order another one?
“If the royal sister is embarrassed, I will go and tell the mother, anyway in the past this kind of thing was said by my sister, but today, my sister may have to say something else, whoever eats it is who wants it.”
However, Linglong didn’t feel Furong’s embarrassment at all, and she had to say something about her.
If it weren’t for the relationship between the mother Empress and father, Linglong would have wanted to ask Furong, where she and her father had wronged her and why she framed father so much.
Now it was just a few words of truth, which was considered cheap for her.
“Linglong! What exactly do you want today?”
Furong was anxious and glared, but still didn’t dare to raise her voice, just whispered and came closer to Linglong’s side, gritting her teeth.
“I don’t want to do anything, just say what the royal sister wants, and I will do it.”
Linglong calmed down, and the meat on the table had been eaten, so she had the people around her remove the meals from the table and serve tea and snacks.
She didn’t eat much, but she liked dim sum very much.
Father said that she could eat an extra hibiscus cake today.
Humph, she couldn’t eat the royal sister, but she could eat some hibiscus cake to help her father avenge the head office.
“……”
Furong was choked to speak suddenly, and then she saw Linglong grunted eating hibiscus cake, eating a piece, and looking at her, it seemed like she was not eating hibiscus cake, but eating her, Furong.
Linglong, that stupid girl, had become so fierce now?
Or was she always like this? was she always underestimating her?
Also, like her father, she always pretended to be soft and weak. In fact, there were too many plans in her heart! People who were so far-sighted as the lord were afraid of him!
She was stupid, and she always thought that Linglong was delicate and weak and easy to deal with. It turned out that she was pretending to be.
Look at her now, how sharp-tongued and how cruel she was to talk!
If Linglong ate hibiscus cake, didn’t Furong know how to eat exquisite fruit?
[T/N: In Chinese Linglong means exquisite and Furong means hibiscus.]
Soon, everyone saw the two princesses eating one after the other as if they had a grudge against dim sum.
Then, they all looked at each other’s food very sweetly.
And then look at the two kinds of snacks on the table, tsk …… What was the allusion in the middle?
The lord was looking from the other side, his eyes twitched. Furong, that idiot! He asked her to pay more attention to the prince of Wa country at the banquet. Now that she didn’t care about the prince, what did it mean that she was in the quarrel with Linglong and ate more than anyone else?
Sure enough, he couldn’t afford it any longer.
He winked at Yang over there, Yang took a step forward and politely reminded Furong.
Furong was still reluctant to let go of the dim sum on the table, but she still glanced at him a little frightened, then she stopped her hands unwillingly, and stared at Linglong next to her.
The lord who was watching, scolded Furong idiot in his heart.
As an heir to the Empress’s throne, how could her vision be so narrow? How could a princess raised by a small man compare to a princess raised by him, the lord?
What if your majesty treated her father better? As long as your majesty still needed to rely on their Yang family, and they needed their Yang family girls to perform meritorious service on the battlefield, this Empress’s throne could not be Linglong’s.
Not to mention, that Linglong clearly had no intention for the Empress’s throne. Her Majesty pampered her because of her love for her daughter and compensation for her father who was expelled from the palace.
However, Furong couldn’t understand this, her eyesight was short-sighted, and she didn’t pay attention to the forces that wooed the Wa country. Instead, she was fighting against a Linglong who was no threat at all.
Besides, reminding her that she just admitted to herself that she was wrong.
Should she care about her own opinions? What she should care about is his highness, the prince of Wa country!!
Since he was her father and had a daughter like her, he would be on her side no matter what, their Yang family needed to be the father of the next empress.
What did she have to fear for herself?
It was a pity that no matter how much the lord thought of this in his heart, in front of so many people, from such a distance, there was no way to say or do anything.
He could only stare at Yang’s again, making Yang stare at Furong.
At this moment, Furong was also thinking of what she was going to do today.
It was a pity that the banquet was coming to an end and she really wanted to do something, but it was already too late.
Fortunately, God was helping her. At that moment, a palace servant accidentally spilled wine on the little prince of Wa country.
The little prince of Wa country went out to change clothes.
Furong was overjoyed, an opportunity finally came.
“Mother, I’m going to change clothes.”
She stood up and asked Mingyue to leave without hesitation.
Mingyue hadn’t noticed the undercurrent between the two sisters, her mind was all about the origin of the envoy of the Wa country.
Hearing that Furong was going out, she just waved her hand casually, not caring what she was going to do.
This look, in the eyes of the lord, turned into Mingyue’s dissatisfaction with Furong, and she was too lazy to pay attention to her.
A trace of hatred flashed in his eyes, and then it turned into that calm look again.
It didn’t matter, it wouldn’t be long before he would be the most powerful person in this Country. As for the woman who never wanted to look at him, he didn’t need it!
Power was never only in the hands of the person sitting in that seat.
As long as he wanted, he could too.
As long as his next plan could be implemented as scheduled, everything would be in his hands. He no longer had to suffer such grievances, and Furong no longer needed to look at other people’s faces so carefully.
What she needed to look at, was only her own face.
At that time, the two of them were really like a father and daughter, they did not care, and did whatever they wanted.
Ming Yue at this time, raised her head to look at him, she always felt a hint of killing intent?
Was it the Lord?
No? was she wrong? This man, although in the palace, had always been obsessed with maintaining his dignity as the lord, but also did not do anything else.
It could be said that he was a very qualified master of the palace, and his temperament is gentle and kind, even a little too stereotyped and boring.
Such a man, how could he kill an empress?
