Chapter 48: The Mid-Autumn Festival
Yue'er gently poked into the treetops, just like a jade plate hanging in the hazy night sky, and the glass palace under the night added a layer of mystery. The Anlin Palace, where the pen is fun and the pavilion www.biquge.info is feasted, are full of lights and shadows, and from a distance, it seems to be dotted with sparks in the mortal world.
The women have brought the nobles of the various families to sit in the hall, from time to time there are low-level concubines to come, the women and some of the concubines who were invited to the banquet are sisters or mothers and daughters, relatives see each other, the hall is suddenly lively, all the nobles gather together and laugh in a low voice, laughing only to listen to the hall outside the inner servant singing, "Concubine Yi Niangniang, Shao Wanyi arrived." ”
Concubine Yi only entered the palace in March this year, and when she heard that she was famous in the grassland at the age of twelve, she was the most beautiful girl in several tribes on the grassland. At the time of birth, the shaman prophesied that "the world can be prosperous, but the world can die", so His Majesty took her into the palace, and as soon as she entered the palace, she was sealed as the second concubine, called Yi, and then crowned the six palaces. It is said that even Concubine Ning has to retreat.
Concubine Yi seems to be a mysterious existence in the Lijing women's circle, few people see the true face, all the women look at the palace door, the nobles of the family can't sit still, and even more have already stood up.
I saw two women walking into the palace gate, the younger one was born in a stunning posture, wearing a snow blue moon gauze brocade skirt, hair combed to the sky, like ink-colored brocade-like cloud temples wearing gold silk dotted cui step shaking, the sound of the ring on the willow waist between the lotus steps is pleasant. Du Dao looked back and smiled, the six palaces have no color, but the light smile on the corner of Concubine Yi's lips is enough to make them embarrassed as women, only read in the book, graceful like a dragon, I am afraid that even the goddess of Luoshui is just like this.
I saw a smile on the corner of her lips, and whispered something to Shao Wanyi beside her, Shao Wanyi smiled, and the two came together, which shows that the relationship is close. The women and nobles hurriedly got up and saluted, and heard a gentle and nice voice from the hall from a distance, full of laughter, "Get up quickly, you don't need to be polite." ”
After the nobles got up, they whispered, their voices full of envy, "Dudao Concubine Yi Niangniang was born stunningly, she is the first beauty of the grassland, and now it seems that the rumors are true." ”
There are some melon and fruit snacks on the Huanghuali case, some candied begonias are contained in the crystal glass bowl, and a few pale pink wood hibiscus are inserted in the porcelain bottle on the case.
Lai'er stepped forward to pour a glass of wine for Jiang Mi and Su Dai, Su Dai took a sip of osmanthus wine and said with a smile: "The wine of the Si Brewing Division is still as delicious as ever, but I don't know when I can taste the osmanthus wine that my sister wants to brew?" ”
"You just have to rest assured, when it's ready, I mean you take the first share, and you will definitely be indispensable." Jiang Mi glanced at her, her eyes full of smiles.
Su Dai put down the wine bottle, and a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes: "Then I will be disrespectful." ”
Jiang Mi raised his hand lightly, picked up a candied begonia in the glass cup and put it in his mouth, and laughed in a low voice: "This concubine Yi has just entered the palace, and she only hears her name and doesn't see her person, but this Mid-Autumn Festival banquet is to call the women and nobles to have a good look." ”
Hearing what Jiang Mi said, Su Dai noticed that there were eyes looking at him in the hall from time to time, and when he looked back, he pretended to look away as if nothing happened, she looked helpless, lowered her eyebrows and said softly: "When you enter the palace, you have a banquet, is it the same?" ”
"Me? I didn't. Before entering the palace, I had been to a lot of flower-viewing banquets of various families, so most of the people here knew each other. And you, Dai'er, you are the princess of Uzhuerqin, and this layer alone is enough to make them interested. Jiang Mi looked at Su Dai playfully.
Su Dai was a little helpless, and at this time, the voice of the waiter outside the hall sounded again, "Concubine Ning Niangniang has arrived." ”
Concubine Ning walked in from outside the hall, passed in front of Su Dai, stopped slightly, and said with a smile: "Sister Concubine Yi arrived so early, I'm late." ”
"Sister Concubine Ning is not late, I came early." Su Dai said with a polite smile on his face.
Concubine Ning smiled slightly and didn't speak, Lianbu walked to her seat.
But after a long time, the prince came with the princes and emperors, Rong Sheng sat down with a smile on his face, the nobles in the room looked at his handsome face, and couldn't help blushing, I heard earlier that the prince was talented and learned, His Majesty loved it very much, and now when I see it, I don't want him to be even more handsome, this is the most noble person in the future of Da Chu, so that the nobles of the family in the palace are like a deer, and they are bumping into each other.
At this moment, the big and small concubines in the palace have arrived, Rong Bingye arrived with the virtuous concubines, and after everyone got up and saluted, he laughed loudly, "Flat." ”
After the banquet began, the palace ladies entered from outside the palace, and the dishes served were carefully prepared by the imperial dining room.
On the occasion of the three rounds of wine, the virtuous concubine ordered the noble ladies of the family to light up the palace lamps made by themselves, and every time a noble girl arrived, the virtuous concubine had to praise it, and the atmosphere in the palace was very harmonious and lively.
"The courtier Wei Shu pays a visit to Your Majesty and all the mothers, may Your Majesty be blessed and safe, and all the mothers will be forever." During the banquet, Wan Ting walked out of a girl, only to see her eyebrows smiling, and a pair of apricot eyes like smart jade.
Su Dai raised his eyes and looked over, it turned out to be Concubine Zhuang's niece, Miss Wei Wu.
"Hurry up." Rong Bingye looked at Concubine Xian with a smile and asked, "Which girl's daughter is this?" ”
Concubine Xian smiled gently: "It's the daughter of Brother Xinyi's family." ”
Rong Bingye bowed his head slightly, and said in a low voice: "Oh, it's the granddaughter of Wei Guogong." Referring to Concubine Zhuang, he paused and asked, "Concubine Zhuang didn't come today?" ”
Concubine Xiangui's face was full of pity, and she shook her head before she said softly: "Xin Yi is weak, the summer has just passed, and the weather is just cooler, I heard the palace maid in her palace say that she was sick again after the wind blew." ”
"Ask a doctor to take a good look." Rong Bingye couldn't help but sigh lightly.
After the virtuous concubine responded softly, she smiled and said to Wei Shu: "What kind of lamp is yours, light it." ”
The corners of Wei Shu's lips were full of sweet smiles, which were very flattering: "Back to the noble concubine, the courtiers are not talented, thinking that autumn should be the day of abundant grains, so she made a wheat ear palace lamp." After speaking, he took out a palace lamp from the position, and saw that the palace lamp was made in the shape of a golden ear of wheat, and the long ear of wheat hung down, looking delicate and lovely.
"Today, most people make palace lamps such as Chang'e and Jade Rabbit, but you are the only one who is delicate and ingenious, and has grains and social grains in your heart, and I am very relieved." Rong Bingye smiled and looked at the wheat ear palace lamp presented by Huan Yuqi, and exclaimed.
Everyone was busy laughing and responding, and the virtuous concubine smiled: "Your Majesty wants to reward her?" ”
"It's a reward." Rong Bingye's face was full of smiles, "Hmm, what reward do you want?" ”
Wei Shu hurriedly curtsied, and her voice was full of humility: "Your Majesty, the courtiers are just making palace lamps, and they should not be rewarded." But the courtiers wanted to dare to ask His Majesty for something. ”
There were some discussions in the hall, and Rong Bingye looked a little unhappy, but he still asked, "What do you ask for?" ”
Wei Shu lowered her eyebrows and continued: "Last year's heavy snowfall, there were many homeless people from other places in Lijing, and the courtiers were full of unbearable hearts when they saw it, and they dared to ask Your Majesty to build a homestay in the western suburbs of Lijing in winter today, so as to give the homeless people a place to live in peace. ”
After Wei Shu's words, Rong Bingye couldn't help laughing loudly, and exclaimed: "You have the people in mind at a young age, Wei Yixu will teach his son!" Okay, I've answered you, and I'll make an order tomorrow! ”
After Wei Shu was praised by His Majesty, her expression was still respectful and gentle, not arrogant or impatient.
Jiang Mi lowered his eyebrows and laughed, and said softly to Su Dai: "It's a character, and I can see that the city government is quite deep." Su Dai smiled slightly and did not speak. Caring for the people of Li is something that the future talents of the world need to consider.
