Chapter 54: Meeting Father
And the emperor's affectionate ministers were at the end of the seat, barely able to see the emperor's face.
This time, because it was a celebratory palace banquet, it was more of a royal family banquet, so it was looser in terms of etiquette, and it was also allowed to bring female dependents to attend.
Many royal relatives will bring their wives and daughters, and because of this, the county lord of Qingtao can also come to the banquet generously.
The guests had already begun to enter the venue one after another, and Lin Xiaojin drank some hot porridge in his palace and ran to the Qinzheng Hall with great interest.
You must know that the winter solstice is a big day, and many imperial relatives will be invited to a banquet, and her father, General Lin, will also enter the palace.
I haven't seen my father for more than half a year, and Lin Xiaojin misses it very much.
Just don't know when the father will come?
If she saw her father, she wanted to ask how the family was doing, and whether the fourth brother was naughty again?
And why didn't you reply to the letter she wrote in the Taoist temple?
Now that she has returned to the palace, it seems that the days of praying for the king's help will get better!
Lin Xiaojin walked into the door of the Qinzheng Hall and saw many busy palace people hurriedly shuttling among them.
Since all the officials and dignitaries who came to the palace banquet were dignitaries, most of the eunuchs and palace ladies only bowed their knees.
Otherwise, if you worship every person, I'm afraid that a room full of people will be enough for these minions to kowtow.
At this time, the main banquet has not yet opened, and there are active royal relatives who are already sitting in the banquet seat eating melons and fruits, and they are lively and lively.
Lin Xiaojin glanced over, didn't see a few familiar faces, and naturally didn't see her father.
"Queen Mother, do you want to go in and sit?"
Lu Zhu looked at the venue of the banquet, the candles in the lampstand were shining, and the carpet was also bright red and gold-wried, which was really extravagant, it seemed that Concubine Su had put a lot of effort into it.
Lin Xiaojin raised his eyes and saw that the positions of Concubine Su and His Majesty were empty, and shook his head: "No, it's boring to go early, let's go around the venue." ”
Lin Xiaojin turned around and went out with great interest, she still wanted to see if her father had come, and besides, she had stayed in the Taoist temple for a long time, it was too clean, and it was so lively all of a sudden, which was both cheerful and a little uncomfortable.
"The Queen Mother wants to see General Lin, right?"
Hong Su said with a smile and thoughtfulness: "General Lin is a military general, if he arrives early, he will probably rest in the side hall on the left side of the Qinzheng Palace, why don't you go over and take a look?"
Lin Xiaojin smiled when she heard this, she happily stretched out her hand and tapped the tip of Hong Su's nose: "You still know me! It's really like a roundworm in my stomach!"
Hong Su raised her hand to cover her lips and smiled.
Lu Zhu sighed instead, and sighed with one hand on his waist: "Hey, when I was in the Taoist temple, the Queen Mother said every day that I was a worm in her stomach, but I didn't expect that after returning to the palace, with Sister Hongsu, I would fall out of favor~"
Lin Xiaojin laughed: "What kind of vinegar are you eating Luzhu? I've never seen someone competing to be a worm! Do you want to laugh at me to death?"
"Queen Mother, you should call yourself a mourner, you have to remember!"
Hong Su hurriedly reminded.
Today's palace banquet scene is grand, but there is no room for mistakes for half a day, otherwise it will become a laughing stock.
Lin Xiaojin stuck out his tongue: "Okay, okay, I know! No, it's the mourning family who knows!"
The three of them walked all the way to the side hall, and sure enough, many generals gathered outside the side hall on the left.
General Zhengyuan, Zhixinhou, Qi Zhiyuan, etc., all gathered here to chat.
When everyone saw Lin Xiaojin coming slowly, they immediately saluted in unison, and Lin Xiaojin hurriedly raised his hand to signal that everyone did not have to be formal.
It was at this moment that she saw her father, Lin Suzhi, standing not far away.
She walked over to her father with joy.
