Chapter 46: Palace Banquet Battle, Strategy

"My mother doesn't like people to compliment her on her beauty. The palace maid whispered, looked at Fu Rongyue, pursed her lips and went to the door.

These words made Fu Rongyue stunned for a moment, and then, she hurriedly lifted her skirt to catch up and thanked her in a low voice.

Although the queen is not the master of the palace, but in terms of appearance, Emperor Shou's most beloved concubine is famous all over the world because of her gorgeous appearance, and Shen Guifei, who was favored after Concubine Hui, her beauty is also obvious to everyone in the world, plus the triennial draft, there are not many beautiful women alive in the palace, and praising the queen's beauty is indeed the most distracting compliment, and it is never liked by the queen.

Fu Rongyue lowered her head and pondered for a moment, and then had an idea in her heart.

The palace maid went into the palace to report, and the crowd inside suddenly stopped, and Fu Rongyue heard the voice of the inner supervisor: "Fu Rongyue, the daughter of Fu Xingjian, the Marquis of Xuanzhong, has come to see you——"

Fu Rongyue tidied up her clothes, carefully lifted her skirt, and slowly walked up the steps with small steps, and walked into the Zhonghe Palace.

As soon as she entered the temple door, she immediately felt dozens of eyes fall on her, probing, gloating, and strange...... There are all kinds of eyes, which makes people's backs heavy.

Fu Rongyue always lowered her head, walked very steadily and slowly with every step, until she walked to the steps of the queen's throne, then knelt down uprightly, kowtowed and said goodbye: "Fu Rongyue, the daughter of Fu Xingjian, Marquis of Zhongsu, see the queen's mother, may the mother be healthy and happy!"

"This is the daughter of the Marquis of Zhongsu?" a rather soft voice sounded overhead, with a slight smile: "Raise your head." ”

Fu Rongyue raised her head as she said, and suddenly, a thin inhalation sound sounded in the Zhonghe Palace.

I don't know who muttered: "The queen is so presumptuous, she dares not to show her face!"

"What a guts!"

Fu Rongyue didn't care about this, her eyes fell on the person sitting tall, and after a quick glance, she immediately withdrew her gaze, An An looked at the hands on her knees, and made a deferential gesture. In her previous life, she fell into her liking for Wei Mingyu, turned a deaf ear to the harem battles and the court party, and most of her impressions of these harem concubines were indifferent, and she only remembered the appearance of Wei Mingyu's mother, Shen Guifei, and even the queen didn't care. It was at this glance that she had seen the queen's appearance clearly.

The queen was born in the famous Liu family, and is a well-known scholarly family in Dawei, she herself is very delicate, her eyes are gentle, and she has a strong bookish taste, but she is diametrically opposed to her son Wei Mingchun.

The queen obviously saw her mask as well, and couldn't help frowning, and asked, "Why do you wear a mask to the temple?"

Fu Rongyue had already been prepared, and replied in a deep voice: "Returning to the queen's mother, the courtiers have an ugly appearance, and they wear masks to cover the large birthmarks on their faces. If the birthmark of the courtier's daughter frightened the mothers, Rong Yue was terrified, so she had to make this decision. ”

"Birthmarks?" the queen looked incredulous.

A servant girl behind her stepped forward and whispered in her ear for a while, and then she nodded and smiled, "In that case, then wear it." ”

Fu Rongyue breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, only to hear the queen smile and say, "Give me a seat." ”

A palace maid brought a stool for her and placed it in her place. Fu Rongyue sat down in gratitude, and then dared to raise her head and quietly look at the people around her.

Marquis Zhongsu is the Marquis of the Second Rank, as his daughter, Fu Rongyue's seat is naturally not in the front, and this position is very convenient for her to observe.

As soon as she sat down, Fu Rongyue immediately looked for the person she was most eager to see, and sure enough, in the second position of the first row, a tall figure fell into sight. She was so excited that she burst into tears, and hurriedly raised her head slightly, lest the tears fall and ruin her makeup, and she would be held accountable for disrespect.

It was a tall girl, sixteen or seventeen years old, with a high cloud-chasing bun, a face that was extraordinarily small, and a pair of big eyes sparkling, like a weak and harmless little white rabbit.

Fu Rongyue knows what kind of passionate and uninhibited heart is behind this simple appearance, and what kind of power is hidden in this slender and charming body, which is Mei Yanshan, who has the best relationship with her. The stepmother died early, and the father-in-law devoted himself to teaching Mei Ruanyi, ignoring this daughter a lot, and when the stepfather finally figured out to take care of his daughter, Mei Yanshan had become a wild girl who was not afraid of heaven and earth, and could never come back.

Mei Yanshan is gifted and intelligent, has learned good medical skills, and was selected as a imperial doctor at a young age, and is now enshrined in front of the emperor. But Mei Yanshan's mind is not on medical skills, she is more optimistic about her father-in-law and Ruan Yi's brother, she dreams of fighting a sword to go to the end of the world, so she secretly learned a good martial arts.

Don't look at her soft, weak, delicate appearance, it's easy to beat seven or eight big men with bare hands.

Mei Yanshan was boredly counting how many grapes were on the plate in front of her at this time, and suddenly felt that someone's gaze fell on her fiercely, and she accurately found the other party as soon as she raised her eyes.

Fu Rongyue didn't avoid her attention, and when she saw her, she smiled generously, revealing a little warmth.

This made Mei Yanshan very strange, she frowned, searched in her memory, and after confirming that she didn't know this person, she hurriedly smiled.

She has a somewhat bad reputation among the women in the boudoir, and usually no one wants to be friends with her. And Mei Yanshan, who grew up as a single parent, is particularly sensitive to the kindness and malice of others, whether it is because of Mei Xiangrong's relationship to please her, she can find out almost immediately.

The smile just now was clear, and she was sure that it wasn't because she wanted to get close to her, for this kind of person, Kyoto was too rare, and she wanted to cherish it when she met one.

Fu Rongyue nodded slightly, looked outside the house, looked at the sky again, and made a gesture with her hand.

Mei Yanshan suddenly understood and nodded.

The two of them were making small movements, and they heard someone in the hall talking again: "Queen Mother, it's tasteless to sit in, the imperial garden is cool at this time, why don't you move to the imperial garden and chat while enjoying the flowers, how about it?"

Fu Rongyue looked at the person who spoke, and her heart sank suddenly.

The one who spoke was a concubine dressed upright, wearing a dark purple palace dress, wearing a jade phoenix hairpin on her head, and a slender tassel hanging down to her ears. She is very beautiful, she belongs to the type that is beautiful but not glamorous, and people can't take their eyes off it. With this appearance, it is hard to believe that she will have a son in his twenties.

This person is Wei Mingyu's biological mother, and now the only concubine in the harem, Shen Guifei!

As she spoke, her eyes inadvertently fell on Fu Rongyue, causing a little wave, and then turned away.

But this glance made Fu Rongyue's heart ache, and the memories of her previous life were also surging.

The harmless woman in front of her, after Fu Rongyue married Wei Mingyu in her previous life, almost used herself completely, step by step from a noble concubine to an imperial concubine, from an imperial concubine to a queen, and finally became the queen mother. It was also her, while using the power of the Mei family behind her, while trying her best to encourage herself to share her husband with Fu Rongqin, and even when she was first pregnant, she sent someone to use medicine to make Jin'er stillborn, just because she didn't want Fu Rongyue to give birth to an ugly child, a child with the blood of the Mei family!

is a scheming mother, a good help from Wei Mingyu, after doing so much, does she still want to be safe and sound?

Fu Rongyue lowered her eyes, hiding the resentment and reprimand in her heart, pretending not to understand Shen Guifei's hint at all, she knew that in the imperial garden for a while, Shen Guifei must have a back move, and she must be cautious, and she must be cautious, and be cautious!

The queen listened to Shen Guifei's proposal, and did not doubt him, so she bowed her head and said, "It's okay, then let's move." ”

She should start driving first, and Shen Guifei followed closely behind, taking the palace concubines to the imperial garden.

The ladies of each family were led by their mothers, and they all went to the Imperial Garden behind them, Mei Yanshan walked in front, Fu Rongyue almost came to the end of the line, and while no one found herself, on the way to the Imperial Garden, she turned into a palace in the south corner.

After a while, only the sound of footsteps outside the palace was heard, and the figure of Mei Yanshan probing her brain crashed into her eyes.

Seeing that she was really here, Mei Yanshan showed a big smile, strode over, and said, "You are really here." ”

"Sister Yan Shan. Fu Rongyue was excited, she didn't pay attention to her habits over the years, and opened her mouth to shout. But when the voice fell, I felt that it was inappropriate, and I couldn't change it, so I could only make a mistake: "This kind of palace banquet is the most boring, I'm afraid my sister can't sit still, right?"

Mei Yanshan nodded, and after recalling her title, she smiled and said, "Call me sister, this is also fresh." Hee-hee, you're new to Kyoto? There is no young lady in Kyoto who is not afraid to ride me in and dare to call me sister. What did you ask me to come over? It's also thanks to my cleverness, and your gesture is too secretive. ”

First looked outside the house, and then looked at the sun, she came out and suddenly remembered that there was a Zhongtai Hall near the Zhonghe Palace, and she should be asked to meet here.

"I grew up in the country. Fu Rongyue pursed her lips and smiled, she knew better than anyone else about Mei Yanshan, and she didn't ask questions, the top priority was to get rid of Mei Yanshan's troubles first, and said: "Sister Yanshan, in the banquet today, you must not be careless." ”

"Why?" Seeing her serious expression, Mei Yanshan became a little interested.

Fu Rongyue said: "Today's palace banquet, Your Majesty wants to give marriage to Sister Yan Shan, and the objects of marriage are the unmarried princes. ”

"Really?" Mei Yanshan jumped up suddenly.

Fu Rongyue nodded: "** Not far from ten." ”

Mei Yanshan was suddenly anxious and restless, walked a few steps in the hall, and muttered to herself: "It's over, I haven't traveled the rivers and lakes yet, and I don't want to get married so soon." Wei Mingchun, Wei Mingyuan, Wei Mingyu, Wei Mingzheng...... It's too painful to choose one of the four of them to be a husband, and they are not good people!"

"Sister Yanshan, don't panic. Fu Rongyue hurriedly held her hand, looked outside the hall, and lowered her voice: "At the banquet later, sister, you want to be so ......"

It's about her own life, Mei Yanshan didn't dare to be careless, nodded while listening, asked if she didn't understand, and when she got out of the Zhongtai Palace, she was already smiling, and she was a little excited about today's events as if she were a game......
