Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Struggle
Mrs. Li thinks that her sister and brother-in-law are really good at drilling, it seems that the emperor is very fond of the queen, and she used to often go into the palace to chat with the queen, because the lord was angry and went to the border, and she gradually lost her mood, so she didn't expect to let her sister pick up a bargain. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Mrs. Li is very open-minded, just like her father said, they are all her own people, but she is annoyed that her sister competes for favor, but she always steps on herself, and she has to compare her own family.
"It seems that you entered the palace not an hour before us!" Mrs. Li had a smile on her face, but her tone was very light, "It's hard to get up so early in the morning." ”
"It's not hard, we haven't been here for long, but the emperor has already asked people to guard the palace gate, so my father and mother went to talk to them as soon as they came in." When Mingyue said this, she swept her gaze to Ye Wuwu, today she was wearing a light green dress, which was very fresh.
"Today is the emperor's birthday, worry-free, is it appropriate for you to wear this dress?" Mingyue said defiantly.
Hearing Mingyue say this, the people next to him focused their eyes on Ye Wuwu's body, as if they were also saying that green clothes are not suitable, and girls should look good in pink.
Mrs. Li also regretted it when she heard it, she didn't like pink, and she didn't emphasize the carefree dress, but now the young ladies in the hall seem to be all kinds of pink, like pink peach blossoms blooming, but it looks more carefree and alternative.
"Sister Mingyue, you don't understand this, it's because it's the emperor's birthday, I should dress plainly, I can't take the lead! Besides, no matter how beautiful the safflower is, it also needs green leaves to help it, I am sacrificing myself to fulfill you! Ye Wuwu said one by one, and the answer was also the head.
Mingyue turned her face angrily, and Ye Wuwu also turned to the side and ignored her, what a lady is beautiful, she is just a willful young lady, what is the big deal.
The lord and the lady were silent, but they felt that Ye Wuwu had given himself a breath of relief, which was particularly bright.
At this time, everyone's eyes suddenly gathered on the side of the main hall, and it turned out that the emperor and the queen appeared with the support of everyone, the emperor was wearing a golden dragon robe, and the queen was wearing a purple dress, which was particularly luxurious.
Mingyue happily waved to her father behind the emperor, the emperor and the queen sat down, and Mingyue's parents also came over to greet her brother-in-law and sister.
"Sister, this is the righteous daughter you recognize? Has the daughter of whose family investigated her background? You can't just pull a girl and admit that your relatives will suffer. ”
It was Mingyue's mother who spoke, that is, Mrs. Li's sister, Ye Wuwu really wanted to slap her when she heard it, and let her see who picked it up on the street, why it was a sister, and why was there such a big difference in quality?
The woman in front of her is quite beautiful, and she should have been a beauty when she was young, maybe she is more pretentious, and she looks older than Mrs. Li.
"Madame can't say that, my sister is also an elegant person, how can I recognize a daughter casually, I think this girl is very clever, she should be extraordinary." A man said, this is Mingyue's father, he is medium-sized, thinner, with good facial features, and he doesn't look like a big evil person, but compared with the old man, he owes some manliness.
Ye Wuwu thought that it was really not a family that did not enter the door, she wanted to fight back, but she still held back.
"This is the emperor's birthday banquet, if you have anything to say, go back to your place." Mrs. Li ordered displeased. Their position is on the left, and that side is mainly the position of the civil officer, and the military attache sits on the right. Ye Wuwu thought that it seemed that the emperor must be a martial artist, otherwise he would not let the military attache sit on the right. Hasn't the right been the right since ancient times?
Mingyue's parents took Mingyue to sit opposite.
The emperor was very happy to look at the full number of civil and military ministers in front of him, and suddenly his gaze swept to the lower right of him, and there was one person missing, he asked Mrs. Li, "Why didn't you see the Sixth Emperor Uncle?" ”
Mrs. Li stood up and returned to the emperor and said: "When my father returned from the palace yesterday, I was happy to drink two more glasses, but I didn't know that I fell at night, so I didn't say anything about it, and now my father is in good health, but he has a wound on his face, and it is inconvenient to attend." ”
"Why didn't Master Ming tell me just now, otherwise I would have sent someone over to take a look." The emperor asked Mingyue's father. Lord Ming was embarrassed, the old father-in-law fell, and told the eldest daughter that he didn't tell himself, which made him lose face now, and he was really angry and annoyed.
"My sister also said just now that my father doesn't want to ruin the emperor's interest, so it is inconvenient for me and my husband to tell the emperor and the queen, and ask the emperor to forgive me." Mingyue's mother was clever and hurriedly answered for Xianggong.
The emperor nodded, and then beckoned everyone to sit down, no need to be formal. The queen looked at the emperor and said, "Just now I heard Ah Zhi say that Mingyue wants to perform a show for the emperor today, will the emperor watch it now or later?" "The Ah Zhi that the queen said is Mingyue's mother.
The emperor said with a smile: "Don't talk about it, I forgot about it, then enjoy it while holding a banquet, and I will give her a chance to show what other ladies want to show, and those who perform well and brilliantly will win awards." ”
As soon as the emperor's words came out, the ladies present were not calm, and they were all discussing whether to act, and what to play in order to get the love of the emperor and the queen.
Mingyue gave her mother a look, and her mother immediately came to her senses, she stood up and told the emperor that she must let other female relatives show it first, and if they saw Mingyue's talent, they would be embarrassed to show it.
Although what Ah Zhi said made people unhappy, everyone was still convinced of Mingyue's talent, because she also performed a song and dance yesterday, which was impressive.
But everyone was very squirming, and no one was embarrassed to perform first and pushed each other. Ye Wuwu looked at them coldly, his heart was full of disdain, he obviously wanted to perform, why did he pretend to excuse himself? It's too artificial.
"I think it's not in order, let's start with the worry-free of my sister's house!" Master Ming suggested. As soon as these words fell, everyone applauded, and the emperor and queen set their eyes on the carefree body.
"Presumably this girl is General Li's daughter-in-law?" The emperor was chubby, with a kind smile on his face, and he looked like a gentle elder, but Ye Wuwu thought in his heart that behind this kind smile was a conspiracy, maybe he had an old treacherous heart, and he couldn't let this smile be confused.
General Li had no choice but to let Wuwu stand up, and he also stood up and returned to the emperor: "Wuwu is my daughter-in-law, but she was born in a small family, she doesn't understand many rules, and she doesn't have any talent, so she should wait for my wife to train her and give the emperor a boost next year." ”
The emperor laughed when he heard this, waved his hand and said: "I want to have a lively birthday after a birthday, otherwise General Li would not have come all the way here, so no matter what you don't have to worry about, I will have a heavy reward." ”
The queen also took over and said: "Presumably this is General Li's self-humility, the mourning family feels that this girl is generous, the first time she entered the palace, she was neither humble nor arrogant, how can this be like the daughter of a small family?" ”
"It's mainly my sister who can be trained." Mingyue's mother stood up and added, "I've heard Mingyue say that this worry-free meeting is quite a lot, so it's just modest to excuse yourself." ”
