Chapter 697: 715: Gunpowder Dinner

Chapter 715: Gunpowder Dinner

Madam Qu was so angry that her hand was trembling. She really wished that she could tear off the mask of Concubine Su so that Nan Shu Cheng would return to her side.

Beside Madam Qu, Nan Hou Xiang was relatively calm. After he was punished after interfering with his mother's affair with his father, he realized that it wouldn't do him any good to make a move directly.

He had to be more covert.

Looking at his raging mother, Nan Hou Xiang sighed internally. Would he be able to help his mother when she was so consumed by rage like this?

"Mother, have some food."

"I know." Madam Qu tried her best to calm down and looked at her son. At the very least, her son was still the legal heir in Nan Shu Cheng's Residence. Since Nan Luo had no plans to become an official, the one who would be following on nan Shu Cheng's steps would be her son.

Still, it infuriated her when she thought that Concubine Su was taking everything.

At this moment, Concubine Su looked so happy as if she had won the biggest lottery in the world. She leaned close to Nan Shu Cheng, enjoyed his embrace as he caressed her hair and took care of her.

Madam Qu was so angry with jealousy.

She slowly stood up and walked towards the two of them. "Congratulations, Concubine Su."

"Many thanks, Elder Sister." Concubine Su was smiling so widely that her face showed dimples. She was over the moon and looked so happy.

At this moment, Nan Shu Cheng nodded his head. He didn't have any child for the past few years because he was so busy to clean up the mess left by Madam Nan. In addition to that, he spent most of the nights with his legal wife, who was already growing older.

Concubine Su was a rather new concubine that Nan Shu Cheng got after he elevated Madam Qu's status. She was so pleasing in his eyes that he wanted to spend more and more time with her.

Now that he finally got another child, Nan Shu Cheng was also in good mood.

He just received news of Nan Xin's failure yesterday and felt that the daughters he had given birth to were all not good. It would have been better if he could have more sons who were better one after another.

"Let's all eat together."

"Yes~."

Seeing Concubine Su acting so coquettishly in Nan Shu Cheng's arm, Madam Qu was so angry that her knuckles turned white. She really wished that it was possible for her to rush up and smack that woman so hard that she would sprawl on the ground.

At the side, Concubine Mu was drinking tea unhurriedly. Watching Madam Qu was so angry, she looked like she had watched a good show.

'Do you never think there'll be a day like this for you?'

Concubine Mu had been staying in Nan Shu Cheng's Residence for so many years and naturally had seen Madam Nan before. She had to say that Madam Nan was already treated by Madam Qu like how Concubine Su treated her just now.

It could be said that karma sure came.

Even though it was late by so many years, Madam Qu finally tasted what defeat feels like in the hands of that young concubine.

"Sister Mu, are you happy that you drink so much?" Another concubine asked in confusion.

Nan Shu Cheng didn't only have Concubine Su, Concubine Mei, and Concubine Mu in his residence. There were two other concubines who didn't usually speak much. They were mostly staying at the side and avoided the confrontation with the other ladies.

They didn't want to seek their deaths yet.

"I'm thirsty." Concubine Mu arched her eyebrows. She smiled faintly. "Sister Yu sure is joking."

Concubine Yu merely passed a smile but didn't pay any other attention. She had no interest in trying to win over Nan Shu Cheng's heart and mostly stayed low. It was not like she didn't want to do anything, but she was not as brave as Concubine Mu who still challenged Madam Qu from time to time.

For her, it was already good enough that she had shelter to stay during rainy days and place to rest when she needed it. As for the mistreatment and so on, they were better than the treatment of her own family members.

So, she felt that living here was good.

Of course, the constant drama tires her out, but she didn't exactly do anything but watch. It was not that had.

She just had to stay vigilant.

The dinner proceeded in this manner. Everyone was having their own minds while Nan Shu Cheng was simply happy that he would be having another child. Besides, due to the fact that Emperor Yang Zhou would be preparing for his marriage, the court no longer has such tense mood.

Everyone was congratulating the Emperor on the surface and gave their well wishes to him.

For the time being, it would be quite peaceful.

When the dinner was almost over, Madam Qu suddenly stood up and walked towards Concubine Su. She waved to the servant who had prepared the cup of tea that she instructed not long ago.

"Sister Su, in order to congratulate you, I have prepared a special tea."

"Tea?" Concubine Su furrowed her eyebrows. As the servant brought it closer, Concubine Su could smell the flowery smell inside. She pushed the tea away. "I'm sorry, but the smell makes me nausea. I think it doesn't sit well for me during this time."

"I see. That's quite unfortunate." Madam Qu's eyes glinted as she waved her hand to have the servants brought the tea back.

"But since you have prepared it for me, wouldn't it be better for my servants to drink it on my behalf." Concubine Su raised her chin towards her servant by the side.

The servant trembled a bit but she still stepped forward to take the teacup.

"That's…"

Before Madam Qu could say anything, the servant had chugged the tea inside. Her expression looked like she was prepared to die.
