"Don't want to see anyone, but want to die?" Jing Rong smiled and shook his head. "The deity never said I wanted your life, so ...... You can't die yet. ”

Just then, there was the sound of the mechanism being opened again.

Jing Rong lifted his eyelids and looked up, only to see the green housekeeper holding a bunch of medicinal herbs walking in.

"Master. The green butler curtsied and saluted Jing Rong. "It's time for a change of herbs. "In the past few years, these rare medicinal materials have supported the physical needs of human sticks, making people want to die but can't die.

"Hmm. Jing Rong replied lightly. "When I was changing the herbs, I would tell him about the interesting things that happened in the house. ”

"No. The green housekeeper responded indifferently, and when he looked up again, he only saw the back of Jing Rong leaving.

It was the day of the Queen Mother's birthday banquet.

Jing Rong, dressed in a moon-white brocade robe, led Zhuo Nan, who was dressed up, and was walking outside the Jinmo Residence. The two men talked as they walked.

Jing Rong glanced at Zhuo Nan, who was shining brightly today, and wanted to hide her, but when he thought that something more interesting would happen when he entered the palace today, he could only wronged himself and let others appreciate his wife's beauty.

"This is entering the palace to congratulate the queen mother's birthday, the ministers gather and conspire to the end, if the lady is afraid, the husband's shoulder will lend you to lean on?"

Zhuo Nan raised his eyebrows at him defiantly and said, "You are the target of everyone now, you should worry about yourself first." ”

Jing Rong smiled slightly, as if the ice and snow had melted, and suddenly dazzled Zhuo Nan's eyes.

While she was stunned, Jing Rong's fingers flicked on her head, crunching.

Zhuo Nan covered his red forehead and glared at him.

Jing Rong smiled and lowered his voice seductively like a seductive fox spirit and asked, "Tell your husband, how are you going to deal with the Queen Mother?" poison her and ruin her appearance, or send Qing Yan to pretend to be an assassin and disrupt her birthday banquet?"

Zhuo Nan stuck out her tongue at him. "If you guess wrong, I won't tell you, huh!"

Jing Rong looked at the pink tongue she confided, and the tip of her eyes darkened.

Zhuo Nan sensed the danger and shook off his hand as soon as possible, and ran away in a few steps.

The palace banquet is not allowed to bring any servants and maidservants into it, in order to prevent the assassins from being mixed, so Zhuo Nan took the lead in stepping on the stool and getting into the carriage, and then Jing Rong got into the carriage, and Qing Yi drove it himself.

On the way to the palace, I bumped into many other ministers' carriages rushing to the palace.

The originally wide road suddenly seemed a little crowded.

But no coachman dared to approach Jingfu's carriage, and when he saw Qingyi driving, he was like a sword unsheathed at any time, and the other coachmen who were driving the car did not need to be instructed by their own masters, and took the lead in avoiding Jingfu's carriage to pass first.

When I arrived near the palace gate, there were many carriages and sedan chairs that were congested.

Qing Yi directly parked the carriage on the side of the road and turned around to explain. "Eldest son, madam, the carriage can't get in, please get off. ”

Zhuo Nan lifted the curtain and glanced at the situation outside the palace gate, then put down the curtain and got out of the carriage.

The couple stood in place and watched Qing Yi drive the carriage to another empty road and wait.

Jing Rong stretched out his hand to Zhuo Nan. "Let's go, madam, Qing Yi won't be able to enter the palace today. ”

Zhuo Nan handed his hand to Jing Rong, and the two of them interlocked their fingers through the gap between the carriage and the sedan chair, and gradually approached the palace gate.

Zhuo Nan watched many officials greet Jingrong with their wives.

Jing Rong responded with a light smile on his face.

Walking to the gate of the palace and watching the crowd line up to enter the palace gate, anyone who meets an unfamiliar face will be immediately stopped and interrogated by the Praetorian Guards guarding the door.

If he followed closely the ministers who were familiar with the Praetorian Guard, he would not be interrogated, such as someone like Zhuo Nan who followed his husband closely.

Passing through the Taihe Gate and entering the Taihe Palace, this is the place where the feast is held.

Originally, it was planned to have a birthday banquet in the imperial garden, but considering that it was the queen mother's birthday, not only all the concubines in the harem would participate, but the ministers would also bring their wives.

There are so many people that the Imperial Garden can't be placed at all.

The Taihe Hall was already overcrowded, and each of them found a position suitable for their official position and sat down.

After all, Jing Rong is only an official from the third grade, so the seat is in the middle of the place.

After Zhuo Nan sat down next to Jing Rong, his eyes looked around.

At a glance, I saw that the crown prince and the crown princess were sitting in the first position of the lower right head, followed by the second prince, the fourth prince, the fifth prince and Zhuo Ran, and the fifth princess Zhao Huiyi.

Just as Zhuo Nan was looking at the fifth princess, the fifth princess smiled in her direction.

Zhuo Nan knew very well in his heart that the fifth princess was smiling at Jing Fox, and he turned his head to look at Jing Rong beside him with pantothenic acid in his heart. Seeing that he was lowering his head and drinking tea from the teacup, he didn't notice the autumn wave secretly sent by the fifth princess, Zhuo Nan's heart instantly burst into flames like fireworks.

Next to the fifth princess is the mother of the dead three princes, the imperial concubine, who looks glamorous but can't hide the haggard after losing the third prince, and the next is the concubines who rank from high to bottom in the palace.

As for the other unfavored princesses, I don't know what kind of corner they are lined up into.

Zhuo Nan noticed that Concubine Hui, the mother of the fifth prince, was just diagonally opposite her, and quickly retracted her gaze and looked at the first position in the lower left, where it was not the prime minister, but the Taishi and Mrs. Taishi, who were over eighty years old.

Next is the prime minister and the Li family, and the one sitting next to him is the divine doctor Yan Huichun, but he didn't see Zhuo Qing.

Zhuo Nan thought that being a concubine of Zhuo Qing was not qualified to participate in this kind of palace banquet, unless it was appointed by the emperor or the queen mother. Even if she has already married Situ Weiguo, she is not the general's wife before she has passed the door.

The next seat between the prime minister and the Li family was General Situ, and he brought his sister Situ Yanfei to the banquet, as well as ...... Tong Yuwen?

Tong Yuwen was talking to Situ Yanfei beside him, smiling as if he had not been affected by his father's affairs at all.

At this moment, the eunuch shouted. "The Queen Mother has arrived!" followed by the sound of music.

Immediately everyone got up and fell to their knees.

There are also people standing, such as the privileged Prime Minister, Taishi, Yan Huichun and Zhuo Nan, just bow their heads slightly.

The Queen Mother walked in front of everyone with Mama Yao's hand, walked to the highest seat and sat down.

"The emperor has arrived, the queen has arrived!" the eunuch screamed again in a high-pitched voice.

The emperor took the empress by the hand and walked in front of everyone's eyes. then sat on the left and right positions below the Queen Mother, but still in a high position.

The sound of the music stops just right.

The Queen Mother's phoenix eyes swept over everyone. "Flat, sit down. ”

Then everyone got up and sat down.

The emperor was the first to raise his glass and congratulate the queen mother on her birthday. Next, the princes and others walked to the center of the hall to bow down to the Queen Mother, and after saying the congratulatory speech, they presented the birthday gift and returned to their original positions.

Basically the congratulatory words are the same one by one, and there are all kinds of congratulatory gifts and treasures, but after seeing too much, I will be numb, and I feel that there is nothing new.

Zhuo Nan looked at it and lost interest, staring at the delicacies placed on the banquet table in front of him, including jade palm offerings, pearl tofu, shou wu chicken, and baihua duck tongue...... It's all good dishes, but it's a pity...... It's all cold .......

Tea is the best Lushan clouds.
