Chapter 262: Megumi Yanagishita
The banquet hall was full of light, some bureaucrats were talking about the recent mess, and the ladies and relatives were all talking about the children of the family and some of the daughters' families.
Are you married? How old are you going? Are you having someone you like? These old topics go around and around, but everyone is still chatting happily.
Fan Yao didn't care about that, she just grabbed the grapes in front of her one by one and ate them, Jiang Yunyu occasionally brought some acquaintances over to say hello, and she could also be polite and deal with it easily.
Zhao Ruotong, who was left aside, was naturally reluctant, feeling that his limelight was completely stolen by the mother and daughter, otherwise he would be able to amaze the audience with his talents.
She slowly raised her head to look at the king of Zhennan, the angular handsome face, the dark eyes of the autumn water, all of which made her spring heart sprout.
"Today's queen's birthday, I heard that the queen mother has a lot of research on Buddhism, this Buddhist scripture concubine with cinnabar mixed with blood hand-copied, I hope that the queen mother phoenix body is healthy, blessed and long-lived. ”
When everyone heard the sound, they looked around, and saw a woman wearing a long-sleeved jacket with smoke green satin cuffs and a neckline hooked with gold threads, holding a scripture book and handing it to the maid beside her.
Looking at the bright smile on the corner of her mouth, you know that this person is Concubine Zhang of the harem.
Fan Yao suddenly heard a few women sitting on the seat next to her, and the slightly powerful female relatives in the family began to whisper to each other.
She likes to listen to this kind of gossip the most, so she put down the pastry in her hand, and Fan Yao moved to them without a trace.
I only heard the woman wearing a navy blue coat next to her say: "I have a relative who works in the palace on an errand day, and they are all good this year's grandmothers, I heard her say that this concubine Zhang and the queen are rivals, why are they getting better today." ”
The corner of the person she was talking to glanced down at the corner of his mouth: "Harm~ Pretend, this civil and military officials and their families are all here, and they are always not good at-for-tat." ”
The woman in the green hat opened her mouth, and then lowered her already small voice and whispered:
"This queen is not a good child, otherwise how could she be childless but stable in the back position for so many years?"
The person next to him continued to pick up the stubble, "It's not, if you want me to say, there is no simple, simple-minded woman in this palace, who has been buried in the loess for I don't know how many years." ”
"Tsk...... But isn't it, this concubine Zhang's son has been made a prince again, and she will have no worries in the future. The green-cloaked woman replied, turned around, picked up the pastry on the table, and ate it herself.
There is no gossip to listen to Fan Yao is getting more and more bored, she saw that the ladies at the table were holding a golden silk jasper cup filled with purple wine, so she was also interested, picked up the small wine jug on the corner of the table and poured a small glass in her hand.
There was a burst of fragrance and sweetness in the mouth, Fan Yao was a little surprised, and drank several glasses in a row, after reacting, Fan Yao was not only secretly happy, but fortunately the fruit wine was not intoxicating, otherwise if Su Ran made some trouble, she would not be able to withstand her tossing.
Thinking of this, she wanted to look up at Su Ran, but she never expected that this look would meet the eyes of King Zhennan with three points of ridicule, three points of disdain, and four points of coldness.
Fan Yao was startled at first, but then reacted and raised her eyebrows.
I thought to myself, "It seems that this Zhennan King and Su Ran are really in love, they have to stare at each other when they eat, is it possible that they both think that the other party is eating?"
She pondered in her heart, and her eyes unconsciously looked at Zhao Ruotong.
I saw that Zhao Ruotong was holding a piece of pastry in his hand and didn't eat it in his mouth, so he kept staring at it with empty eyes, Fan Yao was curious, could it be that she would let it go of such a good opportunity?
Don't you use all your strength to seduce her apocalyptic brother......? It's really unusual.
She turned and continued to watch the geisha dancing and playing the piano in the middle of the banquet hall, and her bewitching figure almost brought tears to her lips.
Fan Yao was happy to see it, but Zhao Ruotong was distressed in her heart, now that men and women were separated, how could she put that thing into the food of King Zhennan......
"Father and queen mother, the son is a little overwhelmed, so he went back to rest first. The prince got up and bowed to the emperor and queen who were seated in the banquet hall, and then he floated and retreated.
The emperor raised the wine glass in his hand, and looked a little drunk, "Come on, add wine, I want to be with you Aiqing without getting drunk and returning." ”
As soon as the words ended, a group of small palace maids walked in through the side door, holding jugs that were slightly larger than the wine jugs on the table, and filled the tables with wine.
Zhao Ruotong noticed sharply that the pot of the palace maid who put the head was out of wine, and the palace at the beginning of the palace was slow, so it poured five tables.
So she suddenly had a plan, and when the maid on her side came up to her, she inadvertently spilled a pinch of powdered things in her hand into the flask.
As she expected, the little palace maid went to King Zhennan's table with the pot, and Zhao Ruotong watched the string of purple-red fruit wine gurgling into King Zhennan's cup, and her heart was infinitely happy.
This first step is considered a success, and now we have to start implementing the second step, how can we get him to drink that wine? Zhao Ruotong fell into another round of contemplation.
Unless someone toasts, it has to be a big man who moves the audience, otherwise he won't drink it, Zhao Ruotong's eyes began to look around, but there has been no suitable candidate.
People who practice martial arts have always had a better sense, and she was afraid that Shangguan Tianqi would find out that something was wrong if the glass of wine was left for a long time.
So she gritted her teeth and was about to stand up to toast, but found that Shangguan Tianqi's cup had already been handed to her mouth.
"God help me. Zhao Ruotong muttered to herself, overjoyed, and almost couldn't control her excitement.
She poured a full glass of fruit wine and drank it, the fragrance lingering in her mouth and nose, and she was instantly refreshed.
The eldest lady invited a few of her close friends to greet Fan Yao.
"Mo'er, this is the eldest lady of Deng Zhizhou's family. Jiang Yunqiu smiled and said to Fan Yao.
"The big lady is dressed up. Fan Yao stood up and saluted, the smile on her face was just right.
That Deng Zhizhou's lady is a good Zhang Luo, seeing that Fan Yao is so decent, polite, and dignified, she couldn't help but ask a few more words.
"I don't know how old your girl is, but there is a gift for you?" Deng Zhizhou's lady's eyes narrowed, as if she was about to laugh.
"Back to the eldest lady, it just passed last year. Fan Yao was rich and blessed, with a smile in her eyebrows, which made the Diao woman nod again and again, secretly praising her in her heart for being sensible, and she was even more satisfied on her face.
