Chapter 273: Palace Banquet (2)
A woman of about sixteen or seventeen years old, her cheeks were flushed, she was shy, her eyes were full of aura, mixed with a little panic, she raised her head, and before she could speak, she attracted a whisper around her, and the woman begging for mercy next to her hurriedly tugged at her daughter's cuffs.

"It's okay, today is a feast, I can keep you from raising your head, let's live, forgive you for your innocence. ”
The queen was slapped in the face, and she was naturally angry in her heart, but her face followed the emperor up and down the steps.
"The emperor is generous, don't you hurry up and thank the emperor for his grace. ”
"Emperor Xie forgives sins, Queen Xie forgives sins......"
The woman was the first to admit her mistake, pulling her daughter to kowtow again and again, complaining bitterly.
The emperor and the others took their seats, and the girl in the corner was like an episode, gliding gently by, but it seemed to have received great grace.
Bao Qi only interjected at this time, beckoned to them, and said very lightly,
"Mrs. Yan and Miss Yan are the guests invited by the palace today, and they are also old acquaintances from the past, hey, I didn't expect that in the past few years, the third miss has also become a moving big girl. ”
Bao Qi sighed a little, Yan Shi and the three of them happened to be in front of him, and the two girls followed their mother to salute, and thanked the concubine, standing respectfully aside.
"Which family is the lady of this palace, it turns out that it is the person invited by my sister, Fang Cai, it is no wonder. ”
didn't finish the words, but it was no different from finishing speaking, Shangguan even threw away the last bit of cover-up, and directly slapped Bao Qi in the face.
Fortunately, in this huge palace feast, once relaxed, everyone has lost the restraint at the beginning, even if they have the heart to listen, only some of the characters in the front can hear clearly, and then in the future, they can only listen to a rough Qi, or guess a little.
If Mrs. Yan's previous only words were pretended, then now, she has been neglected for many years, her husband's family has a hard time, and she has too many days to look at people's faces, and that promise is really engraved in her bones.
Hearing the queen's silent punishment and ridicule, she also knew that the concubine was dragged down by herself, and she was so frightened that she wanted to pull her daughter to kneel and kowtow to make amends.
At this moment, Bao Qi smiled and stretched out his hand, just at Yan Shi's three people, Yan Ruoshi was the most astute, as if she had a tacit understanding, and she just happened to block her mother who was going to kneel, and the two Yan Ruoqi sisters just happened to be in front of Bao Qi.
Bao Qi smiled gently as if he hadn't heard the queen's words at all,
"Yun'er, go get the things. ”
If there are people who haven't heard the queen's words, then now, no one can't hear and can't see what the concubine is doing.
The concubine first pulled the two daughters of the Yan family to ask, and then asked the maids around her to present two good jade pendants, and the concubine Niangniang, in front of everyone, gave these two exquisite jade pendants to the two young ladies of the Yan family, not to mention the grace and dignity represented by this jade pendant, just by the title of the concubine Niangniang in the back, it can make more than half of the people present envious.
The concubine affectionately called this Miss Yan family her sister, although the title of the superior is not true, and even many times it is polite, but this politeness is too polite, even if you don't give any reward, it is enough to show the closeness of the relationship between the concubine and the sisters of the Yan family.
What's more, this Yan Mansion is nameless, and the matter of Chen sesame meal and millet in Lord Yan's family is also well known, and the current concubine Niangniang favors them alone, which is enough to show the relationship.
The sisters of the Yan family were rewarded, and hurriedly knelt down to thank them, and Yan Ruoqi followed her second sister to do the same.
"The courtiers thanked the concubine for her reward and thanked the emperor. ”
Yan Ruoqi looked like a girl, her voice was crisp, very ear-catching, a little less reserved and restrained, and her face was light red and she looked at the concubine, but she couldn't help but glance at the Son of Heaven on the side.
The Son of Heaven on the side didn't pay attention to her thoughts, but when he saw that Bao Qi was happy, he was happy, and smiled to make these people even,
"This is all a reward from the concubine, thank me for what, if you want to come to the palace to have fun in the future, you can ask the concubine directly. ”
A burst of laughter and laughter turned the queen aside, maybe it became clear at this time that this real episode, who is right and wrong, but the world is short-sighted, maybe in many years, this episode has something to change the scene, but who knows what happened at that time, everyone is just looking at the present.
It's like many years ago, the current dignity, back then, wasn't it a small episode, or even, not as good as an episode.
The palace banquet lasted for a long time, but the emperor did not stay at the banquet for too long, and the emperor and the queen and the concubine soon left, which also made everyone at the banquet more relaxed, smiling and laughing, of course, also having their own thoughts, observing words and feelings.
"Your Majesty!"
Walking to the depths of the palace, only the palace people were left, Shangguan stared at the back of Qi Rong leaving, and opened his mouth in a panic, the back finally began to settle for a while, but he didn't even turn his head,
"The queen is tired, send the queen back to the palace to rest. ”
"The Emperor's ......"
Under the dim palace lamp, the emperor, who had no time to take back a sentence, blurted out, but it had no effect, maybe she didn't know herself, even if she shouted Qi Rong now, what could she do.
Bao Qi left the palace banquet, and went straight to see Qi Heng'er with his entourage, and did not forget to ask Qi Heng'er about his performance in the afternoon along the way, Fang Cai's unhappiness seemed to have been left behind, and the smile on his lips was a rippling maternal love.
Maybe it was the darkness at night, or the unsteadiness of his feet, Bao Qi stumbled and almost fell, Fang Cai's brain seemed to be suddenly empty, and he shook his head, but fortunately he was supported by Helan in time.
"Niangniang be careful, what is uncomfortable with Niangniang?"
The people around him asked with concern, and did not forget to look at the ground according to the lantern, and then they saw a stone lying on the ground, and the culprit was generally lying in the center.
The blank of Bao Qi's talent was only for a moment, and when he saw the stone, he waved his hand with relief, so that everyone did not have to be nervous, and Yun'er did not forget to tell the palace people to clean up the road in time.
Before the group arrived at Qi Heng'er's residence, the palace maid who broke out halfway was already sweating profusely in a panic, and when she saw that the person who came over was the concubine, she was covered in cold sweat and trembled.
After asking carefully, I found out that it was Qi Heng'er who saw that his mother had not come over for a long time, and took advantage of everyone's inattention, so he secretly ran out and went straight to the palace banquet to find Ling Sijing.
Where did the palace people who were left know where the eldest prince went, so they could only look around, hoping to find this treasure as soon as possible, not to mention that there was a banquet in the palace today, so don't cause trouble.
However, Bao Qi guessed the whereabouts of her son, she saw that the palace people were nervous, knowing that they were derelict in their duties, but she didn't think that the matter was serious, she just said quietly,
"You take someone to the palace banquet to look for it, and at the same time pay attention, but there is still the young son of the Ling family. ”
The palace people who ran over were a little relieved, and they quickly took people to set off, praying in their hearts that this little ancestor could really be tossed.
Bao Qi thought for a while, and then turned back, planning to go to find Qi Heng'er together.
