The days passed without wind and waves, and before I knew it, it was the beginning of May.

On the first day of this month, Xi Ze rested in the Middle Palace.

Wang Ningxuan served Xi Ze gently.

Xi Ze picked up the tea cup on his side, took a sip, put it down again, and said to Wang Ningxuan: "Ning Xuan, during this time, no one in the harem seems to be talking about the affairs of Qushu people anymore, you have done a good job, and the harem is calm!" ”

Wang Ningxuan said: "In fact, the concubine just conveyed the emperor's meaning, and didn't do anything, the emperor is shengming, deal with it in time, and suppress the public!" ”

Xi Ze smiled slightly, straightened his face again, and said, "But this matter is far more than what it seems on the surface, I just let this matter pass for the time being!" ”

Wang Ningxuan frowned slightly and asked, "What is the emperor suspecting?" ”

Xi Ze said seriously: "I have carefully analyzed this whole matter, the death of the Qushu people is strange, I suspect that the blood letter was not written by the Qushu people, but left by the people who killed the Qushu people, and it was used to confuse everyone's eyes!" This matter is closely related to the poisoning of the imperial concubine, but the murderer is very cunning, and I can only secretly investigate! ”

Wang Ningxuan listened carefully to Xi Ze's words, and quickly kept up with Xi Ze's footsteps, and asked, "How does the emperor want to check?" ”

There was an elite light flashing at the bottom of Xi Ze's eyes, like a beating flame, Xi Ze looked at Wang Ningxuan, and said: "Actually, it's very simple, the peony flowers in your palace are all blooming, you can invite all the concubines to participate in the flower banquet you held, remember, all the concubines must be invited, and no one should be missed!" ”

When Wang Ningxuan heard this, he nodded thoughtfully and asked, "Is the imperial concubine also invited?" ”

Xi Ze replied: "Her body is already healed, please come too!" ”

Wang Ningxuan nodded and said, "Yes!" Your Majesty, rest assured! ”

Xi Ze said again: "I will also come to the flower banquet then!" ”

Wang Ningxuan, who seemed very happy, asked, "Then when does the emperor want to hold a flower banquet?" ”

Xi Ze thought for a while, looked at the mural on the wall, and replied, "Just four days later, on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival!" ”

"Dragon Boat Festival?" Wang Ningxuan muttered faintly.

Xi Ze turned his head, looked at Wang Ningxuan, and said, "Is the time too rushed, too late to prepare?" ”

Wang Ningxuan smiled slightly and said: "That's not it, four days is enough time to prepare, it's good to invite them to come to the Middle Palace for the Dragon Boat Festival, when they are relaxed, they won't be suspicious!" ”

Xi Ze nodded with satisfaction and said, "The easier it is to hold this flower banquet, the better!" ”

Time passed quietly, and when it came to the Dragon Boat Festival, Yun Tian's body was completely good!

On this day, Wang Ningxuan held a flower banquet in the middle palace to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival, and in the afternoon, Yun Tian picked up a scarlet palace dress and came to the back garden of the middle palace.

In the distance, Yi Jieyu was standing in a light blue palace dress admiring the peony flowers.

Yun Tian gently approached Yi Jieyu and called with a smile: "Jieyu! ”

Yi Jieyu was very happy to see Yun Tian, slightly blessed, and smiled brightly: "Niang Niang Wanfu Jin'an!" ”

"Flatten!" Yun tilted a hand and asked, "Jieyu likes peony flowers very much?" ”

Yi Jieyu smiled and replied, "Yes! The peony is graceful and luxurious, it is the king of flowers, and it is so beautiful when it blooms! The floral fragrance is rich and fragrant, refreshing and pleasant, and the smell is really pleasant! The concubine likes it very much! Do mothers like peonies? ”

Yun tilted to look at the peony on the side, it was really delicate, beautiful and fragrant, and replied: "I like it, all the beautiful flowers are liked by this palace, but if you talk about the appearance, this palace loves the enchantment of the moon season even more!" ”

Yi Jieyu continued: "Yueji is charming, she is the queen of flowers, and she is indeed beautiful!" She looked at Yun Tian carefully, and said, "Niangniang looks very good today, is her body better?" ”

Yun Tian smiled more and more flatteringly: "Lao Jieyu is worried, the body of this palace is already very good!" ”

Yi Jieyu nodded happily when she heard this, and said: "That's really good, Niangniang's body is very good, but you have to go out and walk around more and bask in the sun, which is more beneficial to your health!" ”

Yun Tian nodded and said with a smile: "Thank you Jieyu for reminding me, this palace must move around a lot, maybe one day I will go to Jieyu Palace!" ”

When Yi Jieyu heard this, her eyes narrowed into a slit, and she said happily: "The concubine is waiting for the mother in the palace!" ”

In the distance, the concubines came one after another, greeting each other. After a while, Wang Ningxuan also came to the back garden.

Soon, the palace people of the Middle Palace presented the food of today's flower banquet, of course, mainly wine and various kinds of zongzi!

The concubines sat down according to their ranks, and soon heard the shouting of the chamberlain: "The emperor has arrived!" ”

Everyone was overjoyed, and they all got up and knelt down to greet them: "The concubines see the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

Today, Xi Ze came to the flower banquet in casual clothes, and said to everyone with a pleasant face: "Get up!" ”

"Emperor Xie!" Everyone got up and sat down.

Xi Ze sat next to Wang Ningxuan, looked at the arrangement in front of him, and said with satisfaction: "The queen of this Dragon Boat Festival flower banquet is very well arranged, the queen has worked hard!" ”

Wang Ningxuan: "Thank you for the emperor's appreciation, this is what the concubine should do!" ”

Xi Ze nodded, picked up the wine glass and said to everyone: "Concubines, today is the Dragon Boat Festival, I celebrate with all the concubines, may God bless the Great Jin and prosper forever!" ”

Everyone raised their glasses to Xi Ze and said in unison: "The concubines respect the emperor, may God bless the Great Jin and prosper forever!" ”

Xi Ze was very happy and drank this glass of wine very happily.

Xi Ze put down the wine glass and said to everyone: "Every time there is a banquet, we always sing and dance to celebrate, today let's change something fresh and celebrate with literature and ink!" Today, the sun is just right, the wind is smooth, the peony is beautiful, all the concubines will take the scenery in this garden as the theme, write a poem to me, and I will comment one by one, whose poem is the best today, and I will stay there tonight! ”

When the concubines heard this, they immediately talked about it, and a few families were happy and a few were sad.

Wang Ningxuan gestured to Ling Wei, and the palace people in the middle palace presented paper and pen to the concubines.

Seeing this, some of the concubines had begun to meditate, while others were secretly worried.

Yang Meidao: "Your Majesty, it's too difficult to compose poems, and the concubines can't make poems!" ”

With her saying this, the bottom instantly echoed, and Xiao Yuewu, a nobleman, also frowned and said: "Your Majesty, the concubines can't write poems, how can this be good?" Let's eat zongzi! ”

Qiu Guiren beside her pushed her and said, "Oh, Xiao Guiren, why do you only think about eating, composing poetry is a matter of vassal elegance and pleasant sentiment, how elegant, write quickly!" ”

Xiao Guiren frowned and looked at Qiu Guiren, and said, "I don't know, how can I write it?" ”

Lu Tian also frowned and looked at Xi Ze and said, "Your Majesty, the concubines can't write poems, why don't you change something else?" ”

Why are there so many people who can't write poetry, Xi Ze suddenly felt very disappointed!
