Chapter 127: Woe to Huaimin
Although the emperor wanted Ancheng to marry Qinghai, on the surface, he still gave Qinghai a lot of face, and held this banquet to invite Shuyuan from Kyoto for Ji Shuyu to see, and he didn't know how many boudoir daughters believed it was true, and his heart was like a deer snickering and rejoicing.
The people of Dayong are simple and open-minded, and the rules and etiquette are not as strict as those of the neighboring Daqi, and it is not uncommon for people to toast to men in such a large court.
Ji Shujue was bitter in his heart, but he had a gentle and dense personality, and he couldn't bear to refuse people, so he had to pour a glass of mellow wine into his throat.
Still Li Huang didn't see it right, and said with a smile: "This bamboo leaf green has a lot of stamina, and the sisters of each family are merciful, don't let Shu Jue get drunk, then it will ruin the scenery." This relieved Ji Shuju.
He already had three points of drinking, and he felt that his heart was bitter and unspeakable, and a pair of starry eyes fell on Leyu in the crowd from time to time, with three points of love and three points of loss.
Cheng Lingye's gaze sometimes wandered over Le Yu's body, and sometimes fell on Ji Shuyu's face, seeing him like this, his heart was even more worried, and he poured two sips of wine. He is used to being arrogant and domineering, and now he regards Le Yu as the love of his heart, where can he tolerate the admiration of other men to fall on his sweetheart?
As the representative of the royal family, the eldest prince first got up and took a glass of wine and said with a smile: "The king of Qinghai and the princess came from afar, Dayong is overjoyed, I will first salute the two of you, and wish the king and princess the white head of the same heart." ”
After he finished speaking, he first leaned his neck and drank it all, turning out the bottom of the cup. This face has to be given no matter what, Lihuan and Ji Shuxuan raised their glasses and drank it all. Ji Shuxuan is not in good health. can't drink, all that's in front of him is ****.
He began, followed by a series of toasts. First a few princes, and then the princes of each royal family, were dazzled and annoying.
Le Yu was not interested in such a boring banquet at all, she just sat upright with a decent smile, and whispered a few words to Le Wan beside her from time to time.
The old lady of the Duke of Miguo also sat on her seat, and her eyes swept over Leyu in the distance from time to time, revealing a ray of cold light.
Thoughts crossed her mind. Showing a malicious smile, he pulled Jiang Mengyao and whispered into her ear. Jiang Mengyao was surprised at first. Gradually, the expression on his face became excited and proud, a trace of cruelty flashed in his beautiful eyes, and he glanced at Le Yu without a trace. Then he got up and took the glass of wine and went to the ladies gathered together.
She thought that Le Yu didn't notice it because she was fearless, but she didn't know that before the banquet began, Le Yu told Qingmei to pay attention to the movements of the grandfather and grandson. This qiē fell on her eyes without any cover.
Wait until Le Yu comes back from Yizhen's seat. Qingmei leaned into her ear and whispered in detail, not even missing the subtle expression in Jiang Mengyao's eyes.
After listening to it, Le Yu pondered for a moment, and then looked at that place, several noble girls huddled together and laughed happily, and it didn't seem abnormal, but when Le Yu's eyes wandered to a brilliant figure, she paused, and was shocked, and she was secretly attacked.
That's Huaimin. At this time, she was talking to the county lord of Huai'an County Palace, and Jiang Mengyao was standing next to her. From time to time, his eyes swept over the county lord of Huai'an, obviously absent-minded.
Le Yu lowered her eyes, and anger flashed in her eyes. Who doesn't know that Huaimin is infatuated with Cheng Lingye? If Jiang Mengyao informs Huaimin of the scene just now, with Huaimin's arrogance and cruelty, it is conceivable how Huaimin will treat Le Yu.
Le Yu sneered suddenly, muttering to herself, "Damn!"
She leaned her body half on Qingmei, as if she was overwhelmed by alcohol, but in fact, she said in a voice like a mosquito: "Go and sue Cheng Lingye, cooperate with me ......"
Qingmei listened without blinking, and only nodded after a long time, taking advantage of the buzz of people in the hall, she quietly came behind Cheng Lingye, she was just a girl, and no one cared about her. After Qingmei relayed Le Yu's words one by one, she saw Cheng Lingye's thick eyebrows, her black eyes blazing, but she couldn't bear it, and only nodded silently.
Over there, Jiang Mengyao had found an opportunity, and while the county lord of Huai'an was pulled away by Qin Mushuang, he had come to Huaimin's side and whispered, looking at Le Yu from time to time. Huai Min was careless at first, and when he heard half of his eyebrows, his eyebrows were getting tighter and tighter, and his bright eyes gradually showed murderous aura, and he looked at Le Yu coldly.
Her gaze was like substance, staring at Le Yu with goosebumps all over her body, Le Yu's eyes were heavy and she didn't feel it, and she didn't smile until Qingmei came back.
No one noticed this small undercurrent in the hall, just like a little splash in the sea, and in an instant it was calm.
When the banquet is over, it is just an ordinary pastime, the ladies all go to listen to the play and play cards, and the ladies sit in twos and threes to chat and laugh.
There are also those who have a mind for Ji Shuju, and they refuse to disperse, but accompany their respective mothers very well-behaved, scrambling to please Lihuan, wanting to please Lihuan.
is even more bold, running straight to Ji Shuyu, or missing something, or discussing poetry, all kinds of tricks, and so on.
Le Yu accompanied Gu to listen to the play, and was supported by Gu. Jun Chen clapped his hands and smiled: "I remember that there is also a glazed crystal pavilion behind the Qifeng Palace, let's go there and sit, and you can also bring a food and wine couplet to play with the wine order, wouldn't it be good? It just so happened that I didn't eat enough just now." ”
Everyone laughed loudly, and the sound was as pleasant as a silver bell, attracting the sideways glances of the son who was about to throw the pot. Yizhen laughed and fell, "You just remember to eat." ”
Jun Chen pouted unconvinced, "You all laugh at me." Aren't you?"
Which of these ladies who want to maintain their graceful demeanor would chew on such a banquet? Naturally, they were all not full, so they all said that she had a good idea, and sent palace maids to prepare, and surrounded Baoqing and Ancheng to Qifeng Palace.
There are a lot of people in the group, and there are a lot of sisters in the Xiao family, and Qin Mu Shuang'an Susu is also added, which is mighty and valuing, fragrant and fragrant, like delicate flowers, and beautiful.
The palace maids in the palace were all well-trained, and by the time everyone walked and played with the glass pavilion that Jun Chen said, they were already ready.
The hexagonal light green glazed pavilion flying eaves and arches, the arrangement is warm, and the ice and snow are viewed through the light green glaze, which is extraordinarily elegant and chic.
Because of the large number of people, two layers of felt carpets were spread out in the gazebo, a few tables were put on the table, and many colorful soft brocade cushions and pillows were thrown at will, and people sat on the ground at will, very leisurely.
The desk is full of all kinds of food, what sesame rolls, golden silk crisp birds, butterfly rolls, spiced pigeon, eight treasure rabbit dices, osmanthus sauce chicken, wordless salted buffalo meat, hundred flowers duck tongue, honey spicy cucumber, three loofah rolls, a dazzling variety of patterns.
Bao Qing shook the elegant blue and white porcelain fish lotus wine pot between his thin white fingers, and said with a smile: "This is this year's osmanthus wine, which is as sweet as honey, and it is not very strong.
Everyone applauded, and the wine poured out was golden and very viscous, and it really had a sweet osmanthus aroma, which made people want to be drunk.
Yizhen crouched on Le Yu's shoulder and smiled: "How can this cup have a penny, it's not for nothing to eat more than a dozen cups if you're unlucky, no matter how sweet it is, you'll get drunk."
Le Xian knocked on the red sandalwood dwarf table and said with a smile: "What question should be used for the couplet, and how to do it?"
Jun Chen was unwilling to be lonely, his apricot eyes widened, and he jumped out and shouted: "Since it is a snowy day, I will make a snow scene poem, two sentences per person, starting with Sister Ancheng, how about it?"
No one objected, so Ancheng pondered for a moment, "In this case, I am not welcome." She thought for a moment and said, "The night is snowy."
Sitting next to her was Baoqing, and she continued without thinking: "Tianming is actually Qiong Yao, and the cold mountain has lost its green,"
Jun Chen, who was on the left, had bulging cheeks, chewing a piece of beef, and said indistinctly in his mouth: "The ice lake does not smell the tide.
Le Xian is calm and gentle, "Baolian people speak away.
Yizhen held the wine glass in her hand, "The fragrant dyed emerald sleeve robe.
"Three rounds and three dynasties, long overdue," Le Wan lowered her eyebrows and frowned, thinking.
Le Yu's starry eyes counted the time, but her mouth was not idle: "Steaming clouds are drunk.
Le Yan stammered for a long time before she stammered: "Qiong wine suckling lamb, the world is three feet cold," she usually doesn't work these, which will make her short of breath and weak heart, and she can't speak.
Qin Mushuang glanced at her dissatisfiedly, and said contemptuously: "Rui Shi Nine Heavy Jiao, Silver Bone Rong Baoding,"
An Su was interested in showing his talents, and said with great interest: "Qi sleeve cage golden mink..."
Before she finished speaking, someone lifted the heavy red flower felt curtain that blocked the wind, and Qing Lingling's voice seemed to smile and said, "You guys have found a good place to go."
The cold wind poured straight in with the opening of the felt curtain, and everyone who was on the rise shivered together, and then looked at the people standing in front of the pavilion, and the smile froze on their faces.
Huai Min's heart was on fire, and she stood in front of the pavilion vividly, looking at this group of delicate noblewomen, none of whom were pleasing to the eye.Her eyes fell straight on Le Yu, and the cold and vicious flashed in a flash, and she put on a reserved and arrogant smile, "Why don't you call me?"
Jiang Mengyu leaned into her ear and said mysteriously Cheng Lingye came forward to defend this Xiao Leyu, she still didn't believe it, what is the origin of this Xiao Leyu?
But the girl in front of her is elegant and beautiful, and her eyebrows are calm and noble, especially her eyes, which are like full of stars, reflecting the sparkling waves, and she is indeed not a vulgar fan.
An Cheng looked around and saw that most of the people showed fear on their faces, so he had to stand up and said with a smile: "You like to dance and play with swords, and you have always been the least interested in these poems and songs, haven't you?"
Huai Min snorted lightly, how much did he want to give Ancheng some face, and said with a smile: "I heard that Miss Xiao is very good at playing chess, and the county lord wants to ask for a lesson or two, I don't know if it's okay?"
Le Yu secretly came, she knew that there were some things that she couldn't hide from no matter what, so she simply ignored Yizhen and Le Wan pulling her sleeves a few times on the case, and generously pushed the case and got up and said: "Since the county lord has a life, Le Yu should naturally obey her fate."
Huai Min smiled, her bright face was radiant, "In this case, the county lord has already prepared a tea chess game, the fourth girl will come with me?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the pavilion who had befriended Le Yu all sweated on their foreheads, joking, when did the county lord of Huaimin, who had always only liked to swing whips, like to play chess? (To be continued.) )
