Qin Su looked at Xue Yunheng from afar. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

It seems that he has lost a little weight, and his spirit is not as good as usual.

She stared at him and carefully searched his face, hoping to find the traces left by his hanging color.

Maybe her gaze was too focused, Xue Yunheng seemed to feel something, and suddenly turned his head to meet her eyes.

In an instant, there seemed to be some emotions flowing through his quiet phoenix eyes, as if they had traveled thousands of miles and stretched.

It was a look that Qin Su had never seen in the eyes of others, it seemed to have deep meaning and ruthlessness, and it was inseparable from her at the touch of a touch.

Seeing Xue Yunheng quickly turn his head and speak in a low voice to Xue Siniang who was sitting beside him, Qin Su couldn't help frowning.

What does this mean?

He looked at her with a clear look, but he didn't give her time to speculate at all, so he withdrew.

It's quirky.

Qin Su subconsciously raised his hand, and then put his hand down again.

The banquet hasn't started yet, and her every move must not be casual, lest she, the princess of Jinling, be laughed at and unruly.

She raised her head indifferently, and with the corner of her eye, she looked at the most famous ladies in the capital.

Sure enough, more than half of the eyes of these famous ladies were on her.

It was the first time they had seen the princess so closely, and there were several glances that seemed friendly and eager.

Tsk, this is for fear that I won't be able to occupy the position of those two big waiters, these little ladies have a lot of thoughts.

Qin Su shook his head secretly, and heard a pleasant chime sound in his ears.

The auspicious time has arrived, and the twilight palace banquet in the fourteenth year of the Middle Yuan Dynasty has officially begun.

Stepping on the melodious tail note of the jade chime, Emperor Zhongyuan stood up, raised the jade bottle, and said with a smile: "Tonight is not a palace banquet, and Lone is not so particular about it with Zhongqing, the only thing to send is: Green Sauce Deep Cup, Qiong Yao Tiankuo, Lone and Zhongqing have fun." After speaking, he raised his head and drank all the wine in the bottle, then stretched out his hand to the door of the temple, and laughed loudly: "The wine is exhausted and the snow falls, this is also a good thing." ”

When everyone heard this, they all turned their heads, but they saw that outside the half-open palace gate, under the reflection of countless palace lights, it was snowing in the sky.

It's snowing.

The winter solstice and twilight are auspicious days, and the two auspicious sunsets and snow also indicate the prosperity of the Great Chen in the coming year.

"Your Majesty's virtue is all over the world, towering in the world, and the ministers are congratulating. All the ministers led by the three princes bowed down and praised, Qin Su and other royal families also followed, and everyone in the palace shouted "Long live, long live, long live."

Emperor Zhongyuan looked up to the sky and laughed: "Flat, flat." ”

Everyone rose up in response, Emperor Zhongyuan looked around proudly, with the momentum of the world in mind, and the faction was full of style, after looking around, he smiled again: "Sit down, don't stand." Lone Du said, this meal is a family banquet, everyone is lively and lively in one place, there are not so many false courtesies, you all sit down. Then he said, "Come, feast." ”

Everyone was seated in obedience, and there were palace people holding food boxes, wine bottles, cups and other things rushing out, and the wine and delicacies were soon filled with tables.

After Emperor Zhongyuan picked up the first dish, everyone began to really eat and drink.

The underground of the Linhua Hall is burning the earth dragon, this is also the only palace with the earth dragon in the imperial city except for the Shoucheng Palace, therefore, even if the palace door is half open, the north wind hunts outside the door, the palace is still very warm, and the wine offered today is the "jade dew spring breeze". This is a kind of special soju made in the palace, quite stamina, often three cups of belly, can make people warm up from the cracks in the bones, so although everyone is sitting and eating, one by one looks is pleasant.

The only advantage of the New Year's feast is that the Linhua Palace is really warm, and this meal is not too difficult to eat.

Because there was something important for a while, even if there was a good wine in front of her, Qin Su didn't dare to drink more, she only touched her lips a little and stopped, and asked someone to replace it with honeydew.

In the midst of this heartbeat, the banquet was already half over, she turned her eyes to Emperor Zhongyuan, and a smile immediately appeared on her face.

It seems that she is lucky today, Emperor Zhongyuan is in a very good mood at this time, and he is drinking glass after glass of wine under the persuasion of the four beauties, and laughs a few times from time to time, which shows that this Ruixue makes him very happy.

Qin Su turned his gaze to the side again.

By this time, everyone at the table had eaten and drunk, and was no longer as restrained as they had been at the beginning. After all, the rules of this year's twilight banquet are much more relaxed than ordinary palace banquets, even if there is a little loss of honor, Emperor Zhongyuan will not blame.

In previous years' New Year's Eve banquets, some of these ordinary and serious ministers were drunk and singing, some were drunk and vomited, and some were so drunk that they slept at the banquet, etc., and their behavior was much more profligate than usual.

In fact, this is just a game between kings and ministers, these ministers will never really get drunk, and there has never been a drunken driving incident.

Qin Su sat patiently on the chair, entertained a few ladies and their children who came forward to toast, and drank a few honeydew with the royal brothers and sisters-in-law and the imperial brothers, and saw that in the left corner of the main hall, a celebrant had already picked up the jade plate and began to knock on the jade chime hanging on the copper frame.

Three long and two short, the long and clear chime echoed in the Linhua Palace, which means that the banquet is halfway through, and the female dependents retreat.

The next banquet will also have singing and dancing, and the type of wine should be added to the same "Yidouhuan", this wine is still strong, and it is easy to get drunk. In order to avoid colliding with the ladies and ladies in the banquet, it is natural to let the ladies withdraw from the banquet. The ladies will not leave immediately, but will be placed in the "Warm Wind Pavilion" not far from the Linhua Palace, and as for the rest of the male guests, they can drink and have fun to their heart's content.

The women's banquet of Warm Wind Xuan, with the dignity of the princess of Jinling, does not have to participate.

Almost with a sense of joy, Qin Su stood up, bent his knees to Emperor Zhongyuan, and said in a soft voice: "My father is above, and my son is retired." ”

Emperor Zhongyuan was already drunk at this time, and when he heard this, he smiled and said, "Go ahead." After a while, there will be a ritual outside, so don't forget to take a look. Yu Yu smiled again: "Are you ready for the mask of the play?"

Qin Su smiled and said: "Back to my father's words, my son has prepared several big and beautiful masks, and I will definitely have a good time tonight." ”

Emperor Zhongyuan laughed out loud and said, "That mask is very heavy, don't blame your father for not reminding you, if you have a headache tomorrow, don't complain." ”

Qin Su covered his mouth and smiled: "Erchen knows, and he will definitely not complain tomorrow." After speaking, he put down his sleeves and said softly: "My father also drinks a few glasses, the wine hurts his body more, and he will have a headache when he catches up with Ming'er." ”

Emperor Zhongyuan laughed again, pointed at Qin Su and said, "Look at you who are cautious, I can't help but say a word to you, but you have returned a sentence back." ”
