Chapter Ninety-Four: The Palace Banquet
When Lingzhu and Li'er came back, Wanyao was already sitting in front of the desk and having breakfast as if nothing had happened. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Lingzhu hurriedly leaned over and stared at Wanyao for a while, but Wanyao didn't think so, and continued to drink barley porridge.
After half a sound, Lingzhu said: "Sister Wan, you insulted the emperor's brother so much, he didn't get angry, he must like you very much, right?" ”
Wan Yao took a bite of the lotus-flavored glutinous rice chicken and said, "Hurry up and eat with your hands clean, you still have to practice in a while." ”
Lingzhu blinked her smart apricot eyes a few times, and continued: "Sister Wan, but why do I feel that you don't seem to like the emperor's brother very much?" ”
After Wan Yao swallowed the food in her mouth, she sat sideways in front of Lingzhu, her expression was extremely serious, and said: "Lingzhu, you are still young, you don't know **** yet, what you see is all superficial, there are many dark sides in this world, Sister Wan hopes that you can be like a sunflower, always open to the light." Those dark calculations and conspiracies, interests and filths can leave you. ”
Lingzhu looked at Wanyao suspiciously, not understanding what she meant.
Wan Yao then said, "Lingzhu, when you grow up and grow to the same age as Sister Wan, you will understand what I said today." Let's go wash and eat, don't you want to be a blockbuster at the palace banquet? ”
Lingzhu pouted and stood up, and when she came back with her clean hands, her face was shining again, and she asked, "Sister Wan, is it true that as long as I dance well, the sixth brother will fall in love with me?" ”
Wan Yao shook her head helplessly, she was still a child after all, and all her joys, sorrows and sorrows were written on her face, but in the backyard of this deep palace, such a simple kindness was a big taboo. If it can really promote a good marriage, Lingzhu will leave the harem with Yuwenzhi, which may not be a good thing.
Lingzhu has a high level of understanding, but is a little lazy. In the past few days, Wanyao's supervision has been tight, and Lingzhu also knows why she is practicing, so she learns quickly, and on the day of the palace banquet, she can already fully grasp the strength of the fan and the slow speed of the dance steps.
On the day at the end of the old calendar, the girls in Jinmoju got up very early. The division of labor is very clear, Mo Yi went to Lu Yuanxuan and asked Master Zhang for a few red lanterns, decorating Jinmoju with red and prosperous, even if it is a little deserted, it is full of New Year's flavor.
After Wanyao woke up, she couldn't help but feel sad when she saw this scene, she stood on the ground and looked at the red lantern for a long time, her heart was full of flavors, and she didn't know if Lao Li was also preparing for the New Year? Without her troublesome essence, has Lao Li had a better life?
The palace started in the unitary time, and Wanyao was the last to enter the palace. The reason is that Mo Yi and Li'er said that they had to dress up carefully for Wanyao before allowing her to go out, saying that it was rare for the harem ladies to get together, and they must be competing for beauty. What I know is that her family's Mrs. Wan has a beautiful face and no need to make up, and those who don't know think that the girl of Jinmoju doesn't know how to be polite and doesn't serve her master well.
Wanyao was annoyed by Li'er's chatter, so she let her slap her face indiscriminately. The palace banquet officially began, and after everyone was seated, Li'er walked slowly with Wanyao in her arms
came in, and Mo Yi was accompanied by the most rigorous Jinchun.
Wan Yao was wearing a crimson placket wide-sleeved robe, with a neckline open to her waist, a snow-white high-necked caryophyllum robe, and a floor-length skirt of the same color, with a snow-white cotton silk ribbon around her waist, and her long fluttering with her steps.
Wan Yao applied light makeup slightly, half-raised her lips, and her crescent eyes smiled innocently. A butterfly hairpin was inserted into the cloud bun, and a lock of black hair floated casually in her ears, revealing her delicate and delicate jaw. Her eyebrows are crooked, her face is as clear as jade, and her tender snow muscles are like ice and snow.
Wanyao held her long skirt in her hand, her posture was dignified, and she walked leisurely.
Yuwen Yong sat on the upper seat, a pair of dragon eyes were cold and dark, since Wan Yao entered the hall, he didn't look at her, but sat in the lower seat of the Empress Dowager Yunu, Mrs. Feng opposite the guard Wang Yuwen directly exclaimed, he smiled cheerfully, and said: "It is rumored that Mrs. Wan is lively and cheerful, and her face is captivating. ”
Yu Wenzhi's voice was not big or small, but it just reached Yu Wenyong's ears.
Yu Wenyong raised his eyebrows, and did not raise his eyes to look at her, but raised his hand to look up at the jade brew in the jasper cockroach pattern.
The Empress Dowager was wearing a Shen Dan-colored wide-sleeved cardigan embroidered with red peonies, and sat beside Yuwen Yong with kind eyebrows, but after seeing Wan Yao, her cheeks, which were still smiling, suddenly turned cold, and she didn't forget to glance at Wan Yao.
Mrs. Feng sat at the bottom of the queen's mother, with a humble smile and a gentle and virtuous smile. On the right is Xue Shinu, who is pregnant with Liujia, her eyes are full of arrogance, and she sees Wanyao sitting beside her, and smiles disdainfully.
Wan Yao didn't pay attention to it, and pretended to say goodbye to Yu Wenyong, the queen mother and the queen mother, and then sat down safely.
Because the king of Qi went to the Northern Qi Dynasty, Zheng Ruyan was left alone in the palace, Feng Ji looked pitiful, and couldn't bear it, so he begged the emperor to want Zheng Ruyan to come to the palace to celebrate the New Year together, Yuwen Yong readily agreed, so when Wanyao looked around, she accurately captured Zheng Ruyan who was staring at her diagonally. She was dressed in red, her eyes were full of arrogance, and she looked straight at Wanyao, full of provocation.
As if she hadn't seen it, Wan Yao sat down with her skirt in her tugging back.
Li'er behind her tugged at Wanyao's sleeve and whispered closely: "Sister, no matter what happens today, you don't have to be strong, don't be angry, you must endure everything." ”
Wan Yao responded, she knew that her eyes were full of eyes, except for her who was not welcomed, the rest of the people were fragrant and sweet, how could she dare to cause trouble?
After the New Year's celebrations, the exquisite dishes were served from top to bottom by the female officials and the palace maids.
Wanyao eats happily, and the rest of the people like to talk about what they want, anyway, it has nothing to do with her.
The wine offered is also delicious and tight, with a little sweet taste, like juice, Wan Yao drank cup after cup, and raised her head to eat. People who don't know still think that Wanyao is using wine to drown her sorrows.
Yu Wenyong lowered his eyes, frowning from time to time, and when the queen mother saw this, she couldn't help but ask worriedly: "Is this dish not delicious?" Why do you see that the emperor is always frowning? ”
Half-loud, Yu Wenyong's voice was a little gentle and said, "Today's jade brew is really not in harmony with my appetite, so it's better to withdraw." ”
The queen mother hid her face and smiled, and said, "The concubine still thinks that something bothered the emperor, and she doesn't like to drink it." ”
After saying that, he turned sideways and explained to the female officials who served Shang Qiong Palace, and the rows of palace people dressed up and removed the jade brew one by one.
Seeing this, Wan Yao hurriedly poured another full cup before the palace maid arrived.
Yuwen, who was not far away, looked over with a smile, and raised his wine glass in the direction of Wan Yao to say hello.
That was also the first time Wan Yao saw Yu Wenzhi, the sixth brother who made Lingzhu unforgettable. He has a lovely smile, a clear mind, not as cold as Yu Wenyong, his eyebrows and eyes are seven points similar, the bridge of his nose is straight like a knife carving, and his smile is like a spring in March. In the same single eyelid, Yu Wenzhi's eyes are warmer and more cheerful, perhaps because he grew up beside the Queen Mother.
Wanyao thought inwardly, and smiled at him again, holding up the wine glass and drinking it all.
