Chapter 007: Going to the Banquet

On the fifteenth, the moon viewing banquet in the palace was held as scheduled.

This banquet did not have the participation of the princes and ministers, it was a family banquet of the royal family, just because of the addition of the word royal, it became tall.

The Du family has always been a queen, so they are naturally a member of the royal family and are also among the invitees.

Although the highlight of the moon viewing banquet is in the evening, almost everyone will take advantage of the free time in the afternoon to enter the palace early to meet everyone and greet everyone, and by the way, predict the interesting anecdotes that will happen at this year's banquet.

Almost every year at the moon viewing banquet, the queen mother and her old man will always open Chrysostom to complete one or two pairs of lovers, and over time, just like wearing pink clothes, the finger marriage at the moon viewing banquet seems to have been customary.

The hottest thing this year is nothing more than the marriage between the prince and the daughter of the prime minister, in fact, everyone knows it, just wait for night to fall, put this matter on the table and talk about it, so that the Du family has both face and lining, and the elders will add up the good days like this, and they will wait for the prospective princess to enter the door.

Today, Du Wanruo has done his homework in a single outfit, from the color of the clothes to the style, the hairstyle from the hair accessories to the hair oil, the makeup from rouge to the flowers, every process is like getting married.

So when she went to the banquet that night, their Du family could be said to have earned enough face, and who didn't praise Du Guoxiang for giving birth to a daughter who looked better than a fairy, so that no one watched the wonderful songs and dances being staged on the stage, only her.

Du Wanruo didn't mind being looked at by so many people, but she felt very uncomfortable at the waist, because this gorgeous dress was very cumbersome to wear, in order not to cover her slender waist, the Prime Minister's wife deliberately wrapped several strips of cloth in it, so that she couldn't breathe.

If she hadn't applied a thick layer of fat powder, I am afraid that the blood gas would be poor from the complexion.

"Like, come and sit."

As soon as Du Wanruo wanted to sit down, she was cordially called by the Queen Mother, and knelt down at the next long table after the emperor and the queen, that is, by the side of the prince.

Originally, when she walked over, she wanted to find a reason to refuse, but when she saw so many pairs of eyes, especially the expectant little eyes of the Queen Mother and her parents, she dispelled the idea.

Isn't it just sitting next to each other, what's the matter?

Du Wanruo knelt beside the prince slowly and dignifiedly, deliberately keeping a distance from him, and he couldn't see anything from a distance.

Looking at the pair of people at the table, many people nodded frequently.

Du Wanruo pretended not to see it and continued to enjoy the song and dance.

It is said that if you want to be noble in front of people, you will inevitably suffer in the future, this sentence is not wrong at all.

Today, she didn't know how much she suffered in order to wear this dress, and she was ruthlessly taken away by the Prime Minister's wife after eating half of her lunch, saying that she ate too much and her waist would not be able to wrap around at night.

It's a pity that she has been hungry for nearly three hours from noon to now, and the table is full of her favorite snacks, but her waist is too tight, and she loses her appetite at once, and she is evil~evil~

As the king of Qi, Li Mufeng attended this banquet himself, but he came a little late.

His position was right to the left of Du Wanruo, and the two tables were side by side but not next to each other.

When Li Mufeng arrived, he almost didn't recognize her at first sight when he saw Du Wanruo.

In order to avoid suspicion, he saluted the emperor, the queen mother, and the queen in turn, and never said a word after taking his seat.

This kind of cold-hearted feeling of alienation made Du Wanruo suddenly recall the days after she became the queen, and the chill in her heart strengthened her determination to sabotage the wedding.

I must not repeat the mistakes of the past!

Thinking of the past, she couldn't help but look at the people around her, tonight's prince is as quiet and handsome as he was at the beginning, if compared with King Wei, his temperament is more like the gentle and clean Haoyue that day.

is obviously the crown prince, but he does not have the arrogance of the children of the royal family, and he is obviously mild-mannered, but he can be decisive and ruthless.

Sure enough, people can't look good, and you have to be very careful to know people with three points into the skin and seven points into the bones.

From now on, she Du Wan has to get to know this prince again.

Her insightful speculation was seen by many people, perhaps her eyes were too hot, the prince quietly drank a small glass of wine, and the palace maid who was with him immediately stepped forward to fill it for him, and took the palace maid back to his position, he turned his head elegantly and looked at her, or the spring breeze smile, and instantly fascinated how many concubines and county lords in the banquet, and the palace maids around were all without exception.

"So handsome~"

"He is worthy of being the most beautiful man in the dynasty."

"If only you were smiling at me."

It was a voice of envy.

Once upon a time, Du Wanruo was also one of these, and it was ridiculous to think about her.

But having said that, as a senior nymphomaniac, she can understand everyone's current mood very well, and she can also say very responsibly that if those things don't happen, she will also be a flower that is willing to be a flower of clay, forever immersed in the beautiful dream that Li Muchen weaves for her, and slowly let it eat until death comes.

Fortunately, God let her start over, no matter how stupid she is, the same pit will definitely not fall again!

Since she met the prince's smiling face, for the sake of the Du family and the royal family, Du Wan seemed to be self-conscious, so she also politely responded to the prince with a faint smile, but it was only a light smile, and she quickly turned her head and stopped looking at him.

After singing and dancing, another person who was long overdue finally arrived.

The queen first came down from the seat to greet her, this person was none other than her own son King Wei, who had been missing her for a year.

The emperor saw that the queen was teary-eyed, and he was a little out of shape, so he hurriedly let King Wei enter the table, but he didn't ask him why he came late, which shows that the rumors of loving the fourth son are not false.

However, when the Queen Mother saw that everyone was reacting from ear to ear, a trace of displeasure welled up in her brows, and she asked, "Why did you come to the banquet so late?" ”

King Wei cast a reassuring look at the queen's mother, and the queen nodded with the overall situation as the priority, and returned to her position.

I saw that the King of Wei first greeted the Queen Mother, and then replied, "Grandma Huihuang, grandson is because of ......"

Before King Wei finished his sentence, he heard the sound of the Queen Mother's interruption.

"Okay, okay, the mourning family won't listen to your explanation, so I don't have to waste this good time, I lost my interest, you can sit down quickly."

The queen mother's move was equivalent to giving King Wei a big mouth, and at the same time breaking the queen's face, and uneven discussions began to sound everywhere.

King Wei secretly pressed his fingers, his face was impermanent, and after a moment he strode to his seat, looking like he was nothing.

It is said that this kind of scene will be staged every year, which is one of the reasons why Du Wanruo did not look at King Wei back then.

The queen mother loves the prince, it is the kind that she loves in her heart, just because the prince is twelve points similar to the first emperor, according to people who have seen the first emperor, the prince is almost exactly the same as the first emperor.

At that time, the queen mother and the former emperor were very affectionate, as we all know, so when Empress Huiren gave birth to the prince, the queen mother liked it very much, and she should have forced the emperor who was still in the prime of life to canonize the prince.

Xu is emperor later set up his favorite concubine Zhao as the queen, and the queen mother was afraid of endangering the status of the crown prince, so she tried her best to send the king of Wei to the border to guard the country.

In fact, Du Wanruo has thought more than once that the Queen Mother's move is really too much.

No matter how you say it, they are their own grandsons, even if they want to protect the prince, there is a great way not to hurt the peace, and choose a fief far away from the capital to the king of Wei.

Dispatched to the borderland, where in addition to the yellow sand, there are only battles in Fanbang from time to time, birth and death, life and death are uncertain, which is the life of the prince.
