The Divine Physician’s Overbearing Wife Chapter 1590 - A Moment of Shame IV

Chapter 1590: A Moment of Shame IV

Qi Fang was a bit embarrassed. He understood that the empress was still angry, so he did not say much and simply turned to look at the little fatty and Qi Qin’er.
“Yu’er, Qin’er, you guys follow Father…”
“Lady Nan!”
“Sister Xiao Qing!”
The little fatty and Qi Qin’er were filled with joy and swiftly ran to Feng Ruqing.
Of course, neither of them dared to act rashly in front of Nan Xian and could only look at Helian Yue.
“Give me that seat!” The little fatty raised his chin, exuberantly.
Qi Qin’er did not say anything but looked at Helian Yue unblinkingly, hoping that she would give the seat to them.
If it were in the past, even if Helian Yue were arrogant, she would still be quite restrained in front of the emperor and the empress.
But now…
She slammed her hands on the table and growled, “Why should I give you my seat? I stole this seat by my own merit, why should I give it to you? Who asked you to be late!”
The little fatty snapped, “I’m the prince! You’re the minister’s daughter, and I’m sure I’ll be the one who deserves to sit next to Lady Nan!”
“The prince deserves to be on the throne. Why are you taking this seat from me? Isn’t there a seat next to Feng Lianyi? Just go to her.”
Helian Yue snorted.
The little fatty looked back at Feng Lianyi with disgust in his eyes and turned his head again. “I don’t want an ugly and fierce-looking servant to sit with me!”
Qi Qin’er also raised her head stubbornly. “I don’t want to be with Feng Lianyi either. I want to sit next to Sister Xiao Qing.”
She had almost died before.
But Feng Ruqing had saved her life…
It was because of this incident that had made Qi Qin’er very dependent on her. She who had always only known how to endure had actually dared to argue in public.
“Alright… All of you stop arguing…” The empress smiled faintly. “Maiden Helian, there is something that I would like to talk to Maiden Feng. Could you excuse us, please…”
Well, Helian Yue still had respect for the empress.
She bit her lip and looked at a young man sitting next to her.
The young man had just put a mouthful of pastry in his mouth, but when his eyes met Helian Yue’s, he almost swallowed it in one mouthful and nearly choked to death.
“Young… Young Lady Helian…”
“Can you move, please?”
Helian Yue was more polite this time, not as fierce as before.
The young man was about to cry. “But there are no more seats here…”
“Oh, it’s alright. Xiao Qing taught me a secret for cultivating. She said if one eats standing up, one can cultivate faster. Do you want to try it?”
Helian Yue smiled.
It would have been fine if she was more fierce, but this smile scared the young man, so he immediately stood up.
The young man smiled helplessly. “Please sit here, Young Lady Helian…”
***
Feng Ruqing sat in between Nan Xian and the empress.
Sitting next to the empress in order were Helian Yue, the little fatty, and Qi Qin’er…
Only the emperor was left standing alone in the banquet hall, looking somewhat uncomfortable.
There was only one seat left at the moment, which was next to Feng Lianyi.
Qi Fang still understood some sense of propriety. He smiled and turned to Feng Lianyi. “Maiden Lianyi, could you please stand up. After all, the consorts in the harem could not sit next to me at dinner… Just now… Young Lady Helian said that standing could help you in your cultivation and help to control your temper…”
