At this moment Ji Yu Qing was glaring at the trembling Zi Su kneeling on the floor, she really was her good maid, she really was too kind, she didn't expect to have actually raised an ungrateful wretch.
The tears on Ji Yu Qing's face had not dried, a trace of violence flashed through her red and swollen eyes.
Zi Su shivered looking up at Ji Yu Qing, she explained: "Mistress...it's not what you think..."
Pa! The crisp sound of a palm meeting Zi Su's cheek.
Ji Yu Qing sneered: "I won't listen to your lies, you've now changed your fortune by being prince's concubine, I ought to congratulate you, our mistress and servant relationship is now broken, you're on your own." Having spoken she brushed her sleeve and walked away.
Zi Su gaped thinking of something to say, finally she only followed Ji Yu Qing's back with her gaze as it disappeared at the door into the night.
Zi Su used her sleeve to wipe away the tears on her face, slowly standing up, she was no longer a maid, she no longer had to deal with Ji Yu Qing's changing temper, and didn't need to bow and bend the knee humbly to anyone.
Zi Su laughed, Ji Yu Qing already treated her as the enemy, her life won't be easy from now on, she wasn't scared.
The banquet hall, JI Yu Qing arrived late to sit to the left of Xiao Yi Chen, Ji Ling Xue sat to Xiao Yi Chen's right, Xiao Yi Chen who had a beauty to his left and right became the focal point of everyone, even the emperor Xiao Yi Mo couldn't help tease Xiao Yi Chen.
Xiao Yi Chen stood up pouring three cups of wine as punishment drinking them in one go, only then did he pacify the emperor.
The banquet began, the dancers began dancing on the stage, everyone offered and exchanged cups in respect to the emperor and prince Chen before they began to eat.
Ji Yu Qing absent-mindedly ate, from time to time her gaze fell on Ji Ling Xue.
Ji Ling Xue's gaze remained on the dancers, completely ignoring Ji Yu Qing's piercing eyes.
Xiao Yi Chen drank with an annoyance.

After three rounds of drinks, emperor Xiao Yi Mo said: "We see singing and dancing every year, we are already bored of it, imperial brother, we heard this imperial concubine of yours is a person of many talents, why doesn't she perform a song to liven things up."
Ji Yu Qing's eyes moved around, she stood up greeting Xiao Yi Mo: "Your majesty, today is the mid-autumn festival, if I be so bold as to play a song on the qin in dedication to your majesty, may all your wishes be fulfilled, live in harmony, only..."
Xiao Yi Mo raised his eyebrow asking: "Only what?"
"Only this servant in her haste to come to the palace didn't bring her qin." Ji Yu Qing said in distress, she had intended to show off today, to make Xiao Yi Chen understand she was the only wife who can make perfection more perfect, a fool like Ji Ling Xue could only make him lose face.
Xiao Yi Mo waved his large hand smiling, "That's not a problem, we have a black ice qin in the palace, the qin is entirely white, the sound it produces is like jade beads falling on the ground, you can borrow it to play."
"Many thanks your majesty!" Ji Yu Qing promptly kowtowed in thanks, when she raised her head she looked at Ji Ling Xue out of the corner of her eyes in provocation, she wanted to make her name from one song, let Xiao Yi Chen view her in a new light, her position was not going to be rattled by Zi Su being promoted.
Ji Ling Xue picked up a melon seed, her gaze turned to Xiao Yi Chen, Xiao Yi Chen's expression was very stiff, it wasn't clear what he was angry about.
The palace maids very quickly took the black ice qin that Xiao Yi Mo spoke of from the storeroom offering it with both their hands, when the cover was lifted, everyone present fell quiet, the entirely white qin quietly laid in the maid's hands, the light from the night pearls hitting the qin reflected multi-coloured rays.
Xiao Yi Mo said: "Concubine of prince Chen, if you play well, we will give you this qin."
Ji Yu Qing happily thanked him, carefully taking the qin from the maid she sat cross legged, placing the qin on her knees.
Ji Ling Xue spat out the melon seed shell from her mouth, a light flashed through her eyes.
