Chapter Eighty-Nine: Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet
Yumei blinked her round eyes: "Yes, why don't the slaves know?" "How can my own young lady have any suitors? It's just the people outside chewing on the root of their tongues. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Okay, Yumei, just that white background sprinkled plain gauze dress."
Shen Qing's voice interrupted the conversation between the two, and Yumei said hesitantly: "But wearing that, will it be too elegant?" It's also a palace banquet. ”
Her eyes stayed on the two extraordinarily luxurious dresses, and she whispered, "Miss must be very beautiful in those two dresses." ”
Zhou Ji saw that she was still a little unwilling, so he put away the folding fan in his hand and knocked lightly on her head: "You stupid girl, your cousin was already born with a beautiful crown, if you dress up gorgeously, in case you rob the queen of the limelight, aren't you making trouble for your cousin." ”
Yumei was taken aback when she heard this, raised her head and asked Shen Qing timidly, "Miss, is this really the case?" ”
Seeing the woman's affirmative nod, she was reluctant to put down the clothes in her hand, originally Miss didn't like to dress up on weekdays, but today she finally had a chance, but Miss was still unwilling.
Zhou Ji looked at her as if she was deeply shocked, and quipped: "I said Yumei, this is not worn on you, why are you so anxious." ”
Yumei snorted lightly: "Young Master Cousin doesn't know how beautiful my young lady is dressed up." ”
Seeing her look of longing and pity, Zhou Ji couldn't help but shudder, could it be said that this woman also loves to see beauties.
In the evening, Shen Qing and Shen Yushi took a carriage to the palace respectively, and as soon as they got off the carriage, a slender white figure appeared in front of them.
Shen Qing bowed his head and saluted: "Shizi." ”
Lian Mo walked over, "You don't need to salute me. ”
Shen Qing explained with a light smile: "Now that you are in the palace, the ceremony cannot be abolished. ”
Lian Mo looked at her and suddenly stretched out his hand.
Shen Qing looked at the big palm spread out in front of him, and was slightly surprised in his heart, today's Mid-Autumn Festival Jingui, only couples are allowed to go hand in hand, if they hold the hand in front of them, I am afraid that they will no longer be able to explain the relationship between the two.
"If you don't want to become the emperor's concubine today, give it to me."
Shen Qing took a breath and slowly raised his head to look at him, his face looked extraordinarily white in the evening afterglow, delicate and not like a man's skin, and his flawless facial features did not show a trace of femininity.
The lips that were as pale as water didn't know if it was because of nervousness, and they pursed slightly.
He looked at her beautiful face with a struggling look, but he didn't urge, just stretched out his hand and waited quietly.
"How do I know that the son of the world is not the second?"
His eyes burned like the sun in the middle of the day, "I promise you that I will never force you, unless, one day, you will marry someone else." ”
Shen Qing quickly weighed the situation in his heart.
She didn't plan to remarry, and in addition, Lian Che was already the emperor's supreme, so she didn't have the confidence to retreat.
However, if she wants to use the identity of the person in front of her as a cover, she is unwilling, who knows if she is seeking skin with the tiger.
In a fundamental sense, what is the difference between Lian Mo and Lian Che, if she believes him credulously because of the promise he blurted out, then she will live one more life in vain.
After thinking about it, she raised her eyes and smiled, "The prince of the world laughed, the emperor is the king of the Holy Ming, how could he do such a ridiculous thing, my father is already waiting in the palace, forgive me for not talking more with the prince." ”
The burning heat in his eyes gradually fell silent, "Are you really not afraid?" ”
Shen Qing smiled faintly: "If you say you're afraid, it's not like that, I'm not a submissive person." ”
"But now, you don't have the ability to resist at all."
She smiled a little slyly, "If I really can't resist, then won't there be a son of you?" If the prince really likes me, he shouldn't have watched me enter the palace as a concubine, and there is no need to be in vain at this time. ”
Lian Mo was choked by her words, and had to say that the taste of being seen through was not very good, and he smiled reluctantly: "Then let's go in together." ”
Shen Qing didn't refuse, he only lowered his head and walked into the Changqing Hall with half a step behind him.
Looking up, except for the emperor and the queen mother, almost all of them have arrived, and when they saw the two of them entering the hall on the same road, the lively hustle and bustle was a lot quieter.
Not surprisingly, Shen Qing heard whispers in the crowd, vaguely arguing with words such as 'fox' and 'adultery'.
Lian Mo looked at her with some concern, only to see that she had just the right gentle smile on her face, I don't know if she didn't hear it or didn't care.
He glanced at the crowd, and the chill in his eyes was fleeting.
Ling Lingshan, who arrived early, sat on the right side above the main hall, dressed in a red queen's suit. This is her first appearance since she was crowned queen.
The bright red robe showed her skin even more snowy, and the placket and cuffs were printed with dark lotus patterns, shining luxuriously under the light of the candlelight.
A thick black hair is held in a bun on the top of his head, and a red gold phoenix crown is worn on the bun, and a nine-tailed gilt phoenix hairpin and a red agate dotted cuibu are inserted between the temples.
The palm-sized little face wears just the right amount of makeup, bright eyes and bright teeth, a small cherry mouth, and a dignified and noble smile.
Shen Qing saw the salute, Ling Lingshan said with a warm smile on her face: "Miss Shen, hurry up, I heard that Miss Shen doesn't like to go out, this palace took it upon herself to invite Miss Shen to participate in this Mid-Autumn Festival, Miss Shen won't blame this palace, right?" ”
Shen Qing immediately replied: "It is Shen Qing's blessing to be invited by the queen's mother, where can you dare to blame the queen's mother." ”
Ling Lingshan smiled and nodded: "Miss Shen's appearance and bearing are all of the highest grade, when I see it today, she is humble and obedient, and she is even favored by the palace. ”
Shen Qing looked frightened, "How dare the concubine dare to sit at the same table with the queen, it's really scary." ”
Now she has enough rights and wrongs on her, I don't know what this queen thinks, sitting beside her, it is Lian Che's concubine seat.
Ling Lingshan was about to say something more but was picked up by Lian Mo: "The queen's mother is naturally a blessing that everyone can't ask for, but after all, the queen's side is the position of the concubine, and it is unreasonable for Miss Shen to sit down rashly." ”
Ling Lingshan was annoyed by Lian Mo's dismantling of the stage, seeing that everyone in the hall had an expression of approval and it was not easy to refute it in public, so she had to smile, as if she had just remembered that something was wrong, and explained: "Also, this palace is confused. ”
Shen Qing thanked again at the right time: "Niangniang's great grace, Shen Qing remembers it in his heart." ”
Ling Lingshan's expression eased slightly, and she waved her hand.
took her hand again, and said affectionately: "Since the banquet can't be at the same table, then enjoy the moon and make laurels for a while, Miss Shen has to talk to the palace." ”
Shen Qing naturally didn't dare to refute, and the queen pulled her to greet her for a while before letting her go back to the table.
Shen Qing had a respectful smile on her face, but the feeling of uneasiness in her heart was getting stronger and stronger, and she wouldn't feel Ling Lingshan's defensiveness against her.
is such a person, pulling her with a smile, but it makes people panic from the bottom of their hearts.
Shen Yushi's face was not very good, Shen Qing saw his worry, patted his hand gently, and signaled him with his eyes that he didn't need to worry.
If that person really has a heart for her, she is not easy to get along with. (To be continued.) )
