Chapter 173: Autumn Night Banquet (1)
A round of jade plates rose high into the air, reflecting the brightness of the Guanghan Palace into a pool of calm and waveless autumn water.
The silk and bamboo orchestra of the Mid-Autumn Festival night banquet sounded in the Fusang Water Pavilion above the autumn water.
The evening breeze blows lightly, blowing the full moon, sending a rich fragrance of osmanthus flowers.
The dancing girl's shawl is chaotic in the joy; The elixir of the bargain is staggered in the candle shadows.
After eating the five flavors, the holy car ascended to the viewing platform of the Fusang Water Pavilion.
The royal relatives rose from the guest seats one after another, climbed up the stairs of the water pavilion, and waited at the screen.
According to the status rank, the tea ceremony was given to the emperor and queen in turn.
As soon as King Yan's congratulatory speech passed, Murong Qian led the light dust, crossed the screen, stepped on the fragrance of osmanthus flowers, and walked into the flowery moon-watching platform.
Murong stretched out his robe and bowed down to the lacquered gold dragon chair: "The son and the princess visit the father and the queen mother, and wish the father and the queen mother good health and a long life!" ”
Hu Qingchen raised the teacup to his forehead, and bowed down: "The concubine to the father and the queen mother, please be safe, congratulations to the father and the queen mother, spend a good moon and a long time 1 The emperor Li Jing raised his eyes lightly, his eyes wandered on the face of the light dust, and after examining it for a long time, he said lightly "um", which is an answer. "Today is a family dinner, you don't have to be so formal, hurry up!" The queen smiled lightly, covered her mouth with her sleeves, took a sip of tea, and beckoned to Hun Qingchen to go over, "Come, give the queen mother a look at 1 Hun Qingchen is a little blessed, hand the cup to the surrounding palace maids, step forward, silent, and stand on the side." The queen looked at each other with a smile in her eyes, and couldn't stop looking: "Your Majesty, this Miss Situ is really born to captivate the country and the city, no wonder Congjia is infatuated with mile 1 "Alluring the country and the city?" Li Jing put down the teacup heavily, and the soup gradually spilled onto the golden cake, "I don't know, which country and which city is being poured out?" Hearing this, Hu Qingchen was taken aback, and hurriedly withdrew his hand from the queen's hand, took a few steps back, and bowed down. The queen turned her head slightly, with a decent smile on her mouth, and leaned over to apologize to the emperor: "The concubine's words and deeds are immoral, and I ask the emperor to forgive her sins!" "Although the queen's wording is inappropriate, it is Mingde's words, what is the crime?" Li Jing raised his eyes slightly, signaled the queen to flatten his body, his eyes turned, his gaze was like a torch, and he burned on Hun Qingchen's face, "Emperor Zhou E, do you know the guilt 1 Although Hun Qingchen knew that the dark tide of the Mid-Autumn Festival Night Banquet was surging, he didn't expect it to come so suddenly, and it was difficult to distinguish the middle joint for a while, so he had to bow his head and say nothing, like a chilling cicada." Murong Qian stood with his hands arched and said loudly: "Father, my sons don't know what crime Empress E has committed?" "What crime?" Li Jing snorted coldly and looked at Murong Qian, "You should ask yourself about this!" "The son doesn't know what his father wants, and he asks his father to make it clear!" "Father? Do you still have my father in your eyes? Li Jing stared at Murong Qian, and his voice came from his nose, with a thin layer of anger, "Let me ask you, since you got married, why have you asked the government and government, and why have you ever attended the night banquet of the palace?" Before, your princess was sick, and you didn't care about it, so that's it, but now that her illness has been cured, how can you still be so impertinent! If it weren't for your royal brother who made a special trip to invite you, I'm afraid that today, I still won't be able to see you and your wife! "Father! There are loyal ministers in the government and good generals outside, so why do you need to ask about the ministers? The night banquet in the palace is a happy reunion, the princess is seriously ill, and how can the sons and daughters participate alone? Murong Qian's voice was extremely sincere, and he said without humility or arrogance, "Emperor E is Situ's daughter, and her son's relationship with her is a royal marriage, and her son's minister does not dare to slack off!" In order to ask Emperor E to wake up as soon as possible, the sons and daughters saluted the Buddha every day, and drummed towards the bell at dusk. Although the sons and daughters did slack off their fathers and queens, they were helpless! ”
