Chapter 235: Envoy

Yan Hanyu hung her head, tears sprouted. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the end, she still overestimated herself, and after so many years she thought that her heart had already been tough.

Even in front of her mother, she will not win her mother's pity by crying now. She is now grown up, strong as a man, and has always told her mother with actions that she has grown up and sensible, and she can protect her mother.

However, now that she is calculated, she is still full of grievances.

He just stood in front of her, but he silently gave her support.

The tears in her eyes only had time to roll in her eyes when she heard a familiar voice in the distance.

"Sister Hanyu!"

She held back her tears and raised her eyes to look at the man in front of her, her eyes were like stars, her jade face was picturesque, and she was elegant and clear.

His brow soothed and he smiled warmly, soothing her heart.

"Don't be afraid!" he said.

Thinking of the embarrassment that she almost cried in front of him just now, she couldn't help but be shy, half-lowered her eyes, and nodded.

"Sister Hanyu!"

"Fourth brother?"

When Yan Hanyu raised his eyes again, his eyes were already clear.

Yan Jingxiang came over from a distance and saw her, ran over with her skirt, took Yan Hanyu's hand and hurriedly asked, "Sister, are you okay?"

A King of Qin, and another King of Chu, all gathered at the gate of Mingyue Palace for people to see, it was really inappropriate, Yan Hanyu only gave Zhao Weiji who came a shallow salute, and then turned around and saluted Zhao Xian, and thanked him, and left with Yan Jingxiang.

Yan Hanyu didn't explain too much along the way, but only said that he would go back and talk about it if he had something to say.

After the sunset, the night gradually fell, the lanterns were hung all over the palace, and the lights were bright everywhere, and the lights were bright in three steps, as bright as day.

On the emperor's birthday, the whole country celebrated, and the feast in the palace was even more lively.

On the emperor's birthday this year, the courtiers congratulated him differently from previous years.

In previous years, the emperor's birthday officials wore official uniforms and worshipped in the Jiying Hall according to etiquette, and the scene was never seen by the officials' relatives.

First, the relatives of the hundred officials entered one by one from the side door of the Shengping Palace, and sat down with the inner supervisor.

Then the big and small officials humbly entered the door and sat down.

Officials of all sizes are dressed in regular clothes, and they have never worn official hats, and they can be seen that they are civil officials, or some military officials with nets on their heads, which are the easiest to distinguish. Most of the military officials were of lower rank and were located outside the temple. All officials will wear brocade ribbons, jade pendants, jade chuan, or jade swords, and black leather shoes.

The color of the brocade robes on the big and small officials can distinguish the size and rank of the officials, and the officials wearing gold and silver fish bags around their waists can distinguish the size and rank of the officials. The emperor intended a family banquet, so he made it clear that there was no need to wear official robes to the banquet.

There are also tables and chairs outside the hall, which are used by officials of lower ranks.

When Yan Hanyu and Yan Jingxiang arrived at the Shengping Palace, nearly half of the officials were seated.

At this time, the Shengping Hall is all talking in a low voice, the civil and military officials are seated, and the noble ones are all behind, and when they hear which eldest princess arrives, or the prince of the country, the prince of the county, or the prince, the officials have to stand up to receive them.

I heard the shrill voice of the inner supervisor again, "Master Lu is here! Mrs. Yan is here!"

After everyone stood up, they didn't sit down again, they waved their hands and bent down to greet them, and they all brushed up on the loud voices.

"See Lu Xiangye!"

"See Mrs. Yan!"

One on the left and one on the right, the two adults waved their hands at each other and walked to their respective positions.

"King Qin has arrived!" another voice was announced outside the door.

The man in brocade clothes woven with ruyi cloud patterns entered the main hall, and more than 100 pairs of eyes looked over.

King Qin lived in the room due to illness and had not left the house for many years, if he hadn't suddenly appeared at the banquet, he was afraid that all the officials would have forgotten about this person, and he saluted after realizing it.

The son of Piqi is beautiful, walking without wind but with beautiful clothes.

Obviously, they had only met not long ago, but when she looked at it from a distance, her heart was still pounding, and she only felt that she was going to jump out of her throat.

Everyone looked different.

The inner prison leads all the way, and the position is in the top position of Master Taifu.

Zhao Xian's footsteps did stop in front of Taifu Yan, his eyebrows were clear, and he said softly, "Master Taifu." ”

"Lord Wang. Mrs. Yan bowed her head.

In front of the prince, the prime minister and the prince are in an equal position, and there is no need to salute.

"Lord Taifu is a hero of the country, hard work, and an elder, although I am on the throne, but I have been in vain, compared to Lord Taifu, please take a seat. ”

Mrs. Yan stood up, waved his hands and said, "The prince is generous, if the lower officials sit in the position of the prince's head, it is really not polite." ”

"King Chu has arrived!" This voice was louder than the "King Qin has arrived" just now.

I saw a man in a black robe wearing a vermilion bird embroidered pattern striding into the hall and striding towards the position of Mrs. Yan.

He smiled heartily and said loudly, "Lord Taifu doesn't have to be humble, the position of this king is also under Lu Xiangye." Master Taifu quickly take a seat. ”

The position of the king of Chu is side by side with the king of Qin, and Lu Xiangye is above the king of Chu.

Except for the golden seat on the stage and the partial sitting of the concubines of the two palaces, Lu Xiangye's position is at the front, but he is two positions higher than that of Lord Taifu. If it is said that this is intentional by the Ministry of Rites, but as a member of the first rank and a prince, no matter how presumptuous the Lord of the Ministry of Rites is, he will not dare to subordinate the Taifu to the two positions of the Prime Minister without permission, which is nothing more than the meaning of the Holy Lord.

The prince was young, and the emperor, in order to prevent them from developing a proud disposition, warned them that they must respect their courtiers, and that even if they were princes, they could be humbled in the face of the older princes of the kingdom if they needed to be taught.

Mrs. Yan didn't have time to argue, so she heard the King of Chu laugh and said, "Come on, add a seat here, this king wants to sit with my fourth brother and have a drink." ”

Mrs. Yan was squeezed out by the two princes, so she had to sit on the top with her hands folded.

"King Qi has arrived!"

Zhao Shilin, the king of Qi, is the younger brother of the emperor, and he sits at the head of the emperor, opposite Lu Xiangye.

"The emperor has arrived", and all the officials and their relatives stood up together.

At this time, the Shengping Hall was even more lively than the New Year's Day court meeting, and the entire hall was full of people, kneeling down neatly to the side, and prostrating to the ground, "Long live the emperor, long live, long live!"

The sound is like a bell, and it reverberates endlessly.

The emperor walked in the front, the two palace concubines followed, and a group of palace people followed, and they rode up the steps.

"Zhong Aiqing is flat. The emperor looked down, raised his hand, and continued, "Today's Mid-Autumn Festival is the meaning of reunion, and today's palace banquet can also be a family banquet, so you don't have to be restrained!"

The emperor sat on the throne, and the princes and officials sat according to their ranks, and their families sat behind them, making it easy to distinguish which family they belonged to.

"The Khitan envoy has arrived!"

The emperor's words fell, and with loud laughter, several figures strode into the main hall.

The man at the head of the group, with a long beard, broad shoulders and a broad body, and a heroic posture, entered the temple laughing.

He folded his hands and half-bent over, "Xiao Baoshan, the Khitan envoy, see the emperor of your country." ”

Everyone's eyes were all looking at the Khitan envoy, only Yan Hanyu and Yan Jingxiang looked at the familiar figure behind the envoy.

Yan Jingxiang half-opened her mouth in surprise. (To be continued.) )
