Chapter 355: Greeting Party
So, the treacherous two sisters began to prepare non-stop for the Hongmen banquet that tried to completely bring down Gu Ruoxi. With the consent of the Queen Mother, the banquet time for welcoming Gu Ruoxi back to the palace was nominally chosen a week later.
After receiving the invitation from the palace maid in the queen's palace, and seeing the square few small seals inside, "Welcome my sister back to the palace", Gu Ruoxi couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Even if I go back to the palace, I have to hold a banquet, Wan Yanling really looks up to me!" After reading it, he continued to fiddle with a sword that he had just taken from the imperial study like a nobody. This is the long-lost Qingying Sword in the rivers and lakes, it is really nowhere to find it when it breaks through the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it, how many people have been trying to find the whereabouts of this sword, but they have easily found it! It seems that she has to stay here in Xiahou Bing for a while longer, and turn a few more treasures in his palace, who told him to keep himself to live here!
But Qing'er on the side was already in a hurry, pacing around the room, muttering: "How is this good? The queen must be jealous that our young lady has won the emperor's favor, and must have dug some trap waiting for the young lady to jump down! ”
"I knew early on that the queen mother usually didn't have a good heart for our young lady, and she sent this and that every day, and she must have been expecting our young lady to be poisoned behind her back! Now the fox's tail is finally exposed, what kind of banquet is held, and my stomach is bad. Alas, how can I help the young lady push it off?"
Looking at Xiaoqing's anxious appearance of the loyal protector, Gu Ruoxi was half moved and half funny, and decided to tease this simple little girl.
"Hey, my stomach hurts!" Gu Ruoxi suddenly laughed at her belly, and took advantage of the situation to fall to the ground, her brows furrowed, her eyes closed, and she had a very painful expression.
Whatever you are worried about, this frightens Xiaoqing. "Miss, don't scare me, did you eat the osmanthus cake that was sent, oops, it's over, Miss must be poisoned, I have to hurry up and call the doctor, Miss, you hold on, Xiaoqing will find someone to save you immediately!"
Glancing at her little maid's sad expression, Gu Ruoxi knew that the effect had been achieved, and if she continued to tease her like this, Xiaoqing would be so angry that she wouldn't make snacks for herself for three days. So she stopped in moderation, quickly reached out and grabbed the corner of Xiaoqing's clothes, and winked her smiling apricot eyes mischievously, "Xiaoqing, I lied to you, I'm fine!"
Seeing the master's playful eyes, Xiaoqing was both relieved and very annoyed, how could the master make fun of this? Thinking about it, she became more and more aggrieved, and simply cried louder, and couldn't stop it.
Looking at the kind Xiaoqing's aggrieved pitiful appearance, Gu Ruoxi couldn't help but regret a little, alas, how could she forget that what Xiaoqing was most afraid of was that she was sick, and now that it was good, she had to make amends for her naughtiness.
"My good sister, don't cry, isn't my sister okay? Sister is wrong, I won't joke with you like this next time. ”
Knowing that Xiaoqing's softest thing was that she and her were commensurate with sisters, Gu Ruoxi immediately made a killer move.
Finally, after coaxing for a while, Xiaoqing burst into tears and laughed, and repeatedly asked her to promise that she would never joke about her safety again.
can have such a kind and lovely sister, Gu Ruoxi vows to protect her well and treat her sincerely for the rest of her life.
"Miss, please don't go to the banquet, although Xiaoqing is stupid, she has always been very accurate in knowing people, and the queen is not a good person!" After a while, Xiaoqing remembered this serious matter, she was really stupid.
"Xiaoqing, is your young lady and I such a cowardly and incompetent person? You have to remember that when you encounter a sinister bad guy, you can't run, but you must be brave enough to face her head-on and strike her back, so that those bad guys won't get worse and think that we are easy to bully!
Seeing that it was rare for the young lady to speak so seriously and with such a solemn expression, the light in her eyes was overflowing when she spoke. Yes, how can the young lady, who has always been radiant and omnipotent, be afraid! Miss is the best! What she wants to do is not to retreat, but to cheer for the young lady behind her back, and not to be her burden.
In this way, the master and servant who are like sisters hugged each other affectionately.
In the blink of an eye, the week flew by, and it was the day of the banquet.
The venue was chosen in Hongjing Palace, and the queen was worthy of being the lord of the first palace, and she arranged the size of the banquet a few days ago.
That night, countless glass lamps were lit in the palace, which were brilliant and dazzling. The blue eaves and golden diaphragms are reflected in the Chenghu Lake in front of the palace, just like the Yao Pond Qiong Feast. Every three steps in the hall, there are attendants holding candles and standing, and the hall is as bright as day. The fish of the palace are running in, holding the marigold in her hand, her feet are light, and the long skirt of the floor is fluttering, and she is surrounded by Qingyue, with the fragrance of wine. The singer in the hall is good at dancing with long sleeves and graceful and colorful, and after the song is finished, she retreats like a cloud.
The queen Wanyan Ling was dressed in a crimson gold and silver silk Luan Bird Chaofeng embroidered court dress, with a calm and graceful bearing, and the emperor was dressed in a dark gold dragon pattern smoke brocade dress, luxurious and dignified. The two of them sat on the highest seat, and on either side were the concubines dressed in various brocade clothes, and they were seated in order from high to low. The Queen Mother did not attend due to physical discomfort, and only told Gu Ruoxi to play harder.
That night, Gu Ruoxi wore a light blue silver embroidered top with 100 butterflies, only the sleeves were wider than the average, and it was sassy in the wind. The waist is tightly cucked, and below is a moon-white embroidered red plum dress. Comb a simple peach heart bun, only wear a few stars of milky white pearl Yingluo, reflecting the cloud silk black and bright, oblique a branch of jade hairpin hanging a thin silver tassel. A delicate plum blossom in the center of the eyebrows is vaguely enchanting and beautiful.
Seeing this chic, playful, and lovely child, Xiahou's cold eyes were full of amazement and tenderness, and his heart was churning, and he couldn't take his eyes off it anymore.
Seeing Gu Ruoxi, who had to kneel down in front of the palace and laugh in her sweetheart's eyes, the queen on the side was already jealous and jealous, and she couldn't wait to drive her out of the palace immediately, but she had to pretend to be dignified and decent in front of everyone, otherwise what was the difference between her and those concubines who were grandiose and had nothing to do! She had to try her best to hide her unwillingness, and smiled lightly: "I thought about it, Sister Gu was not a canonized concubine, and she couldn't sit in the concubine area, so she originally wanted her sister to sit next to the queen mother." Unfortunately, the queen mother is unwell and can't come to the banquet, so is it okay for my sister to sit next to me?"
