Chapter 217: Night Banquet

When Sui'er woke up, it was dusk, and Zhao Yu told him that the emperor had come to see her and then went to Deyang Palace.

Sui'er got up lazily and put on her makeup, and Zhao Yu came in with a bracelet with an excellent emerald color. Sui'er's eyes lit up, this bracelet was even better than the one she was forced to give to Yuan Meiren.

"Miss, this is just sent by the emperor. It is called Biluo Bracelet, it is said that this bracelet is polished with the emerald stone that has just been mined on the Tianshan Mountain, and it has to go through a total of 9981 processes. After it is created, the color is clear and blue, like a clear blue sea. Not only that, the emperor also said that this emerald stone is a treasure in the jade, which can collect the aura of heaven and earth, and the woman wears such a bracelet, which can calm the mind and calm the inside, so that the face is delicate and the skin is delicate. ”

Sui'er took it in her hand and played with it for a while, and felt more and more cute and liked it even more. "Is it really that amazing?"

"Miss, the one you gave to Yuan Meiren last time was also specially chosen by the emperor for Miss, the emperor said that Miss doesn't like gold and jade, only likes jade, and every time she encounters jade, she pays special attention. This is so precious, Miss don't give it away again. ”

Sui'er put the bracelet on her white lotus-like jade arm, and her complexion matched the jade, making Sui'er's complexion like jade.

"This is the emperor's heart, and I will not give it away lightly. The hour is coming, when does the emperor's dinner start? ”

"The head of Caisun also asked, saying that if the mother is rested, she will leave, and the ladies in the palace have all gone to the Changqiu Palace!"

"Then let's go too!" Sui'er stood up and let Zhao Yu put on her cloak. She deliberately wore the cloak made of Xuanhu skin given to her by Yin Li, the skin color was excellent, and the tip of the hair trembled slightly, which reflected Sui'er's skin tone very well.

"This Xuanhu fur cloak was given to me by the Queen of Yin, although she may not have any heart, but this skin color is still excellent." Sui'er touched the fluffy fur and said.

"Yes, this one is the best in the mother's cloak, but I think the white fox one is also good. The mother brought it in from outside the palace was also full of warmth. Zhao Yu said casually.

Sui'er's face changed slightly, and her eyes instantly became gloomy, "Sister Yu." The matter between the outside of the palace and the prince of Qinghe must not be mentioned again, we are already struggling step by step, don't have nothing to do! ”

"Miss, it's me who is too talkative. I just said it casually, and I didn't mean anything else! ”

Sui'er closed her eyes, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, "I know you don't mean anything else, but if the emperor hears such words, I will never recover!" ”

Zhao Yu nodded hurriedly, "Miss, I remember, I don't dare to talk nonsense anymore." ”

Zhao Yu knew that Sui'er was favored. But everyone's eyes in the palace are staring, which shows that Sui'er must be careful everywhere, once someone catches something, it is not only a matter of falling out of favor, but he may not know how he died. She was brought into the palace by Sui'er, and she is also her only relative, so she naturally has to be more attentive.

"The world in this palace is hot and cold, and many things are not up to us. The emperor favors me again, but he is also suspicious of the relationship between King Qinghe and me, although I covered up the past last time. But what the emperor will think in the future, I don't know. So, don't bring it up again, never again. ”

Su Lan'er came in from outside the door. glanced at the two of them, and deliberately coughed and said, "Niangniang, the slave is guarding outside, and when you talk in the future, you have to look outside." ”

Zhao Yu's face changed, and he nodded, "Sister Lan'er bothered." ”

When Sui'er entered the Changqiu Palace. Seeing that all the concubines had arrived, the palace lamps of various colors reflected the Changqiu Hall as if it were day. The moon hung like a silver plate on the black satin-like canopy, and the bright moonlight was like a light veil, shrouded in every corner of the pavilion layer by layer.

On the tall crane lampstand in the hall, several night pearls exude a soft light, shrouding the Changqiu Hall in a peaceful light. The gold-lacquered screen of the silk lotus yarn is embroidered with the pattern of a hundred birds and a phoenix, shining under the illumination of the night pearl, as if alive.

In front of the screen is a soft collapse of rich gold and jade, and the four corners are carved with peach bats, symbolizing the longevity and longevity. The couch was covered with a three-color crescent mattress cushion from Persian tribute. On each side is a row of rosewood tables, each with snacks and fruits. Sui'er's seat is near the screen, the closest position under the tooth seat.

The palace maids who served the incense lit red candles mixed with ambergris on the eight-treasure lampstand, and a luxurious sweet fragrance spread in the air. Sui'er took off the Xuanhu cloak, Yin Li saw it, and said with a smile: "This cloak and the color of this Xuanhu are in harmony, it's really beautiful!" ”

Sui'er saw the salute, sat down and said: "Thank you for the reward of the queen's mother, this cloak is extremely warm, Sui'er has always been afraid of the cold, but now it is much better!" ”

"It's good for your body, today is the day when you and the emperor return to the palace, the palace specially sets up a banquet, everyone is a family, and they all treat this place as if they were in their own palace, and they don't have to be restrained. When the emperor comes, let's have a banquet! ”

"Whoa!" The concubines agreed in unison. Talk in a low voice. Sui'er glanced at it, Su Zhao'er still didn't come, thinking that it was inconvenient for the child, but for some reason, thinking that the child should also be full moon, probably because she was afraid that the child would catch a cold.

Yin Li smiled and said something to Cui Huang beside him, Cui Huang gave another order to the little eunuch behind him, and the little eunuch ran to the back with a smoke.

The dense beat of the drums sounded, and everyone fell silent, and three or four men in short beats carried out a large red drum in the sound of the drum, which was about three feet wide, and was surrounded by golden bells, which swayed gently with the steps of the men, making a crisp touch sound.

On the big drum sat cross-legged a girl in blue clothes and blue pants, only seven or eight years old, with two pigtails in the sky, and a little cinnabar in the center of her eyebrows, shaking her head and shaking her head was cute.

The four big men lifted the drum to the center and lowered it, and the girl stood up and slowly saluted the four blows, grinning. Then he continued to sit cross-legged on the drum with his hands folded, and the four big men lifted the drum steadily off the ground and lifted it above their heads with their horses.

The beat of the drum gradually became quieter, and another little girl in red clothes and red pants with pigtails turned over eight times in a row from behind to the drum, and it turned out to be the shoulders of the woman and child on the drum. Two slender wrists pressed against her shoulders and stood upside down on the girl's shoulders. The four men carrying the drum did not move at all, and the girl in blue still sat on the drum with her hands folded, without even blinking her eyes.

"Good!" The concubines let out an uproar, but before the applause was over, a girl in the same costume came out from behind, a little on tiptoe, and actually stood upside down with her hand on the sole of the girl in red just now. The girl below flickered. Immediately stabilized, the virtual palm slowly opened, and the ten fingers flipped out the shape of the flower.

"Good!" Again, the applause was endless. Sui'er looked at it with a smile, full of interest. I feel that this yin glass is for this reception banquet. It's a lot of work. I just don't know what the emperor thinks.

was thinking about it, but he heard applause outside, and knew that it was Liu Zhao coming. Sure enough, I saw that Liu Zhao had already stepped into the Changqiu Palace.

All the concubines stood up to greet each other, Liu Zhao smiled and waved his hand: "Sit down, the emperor has a banquet, it's really troublesome." It's all your own family, so you don't have to be so polite. ”

His eyes swept to Sui'er on the side, and when he saw her smiling and her face slightly ruddy, he relieved himself, sat next to Yinli, and said, "I can hear the applause inside just outside, isn't it what kind of program the queen arranged?" ”

Yin Li said with a smile: "The concubine did arrange some small programs, these days the emperor and Deng Guiren have suffered outside, and it is time to relax when they return to the palace." Take good care of your body. The concubine, that is, Emperor Bo, smiled with all the sisters! ”

"The queen bothered! Then what other programs, I'll take a look! Liu Zhao said very happily when he saw her so bothered.

"Your Majesty, the sisters are hungry, why don't you let everyone watch while eating!"

"Okay, all the concubines are casual and eat more. I went to see the little princess, who looked like pink jade, very cute, and very strong. The three nurses can't provide milk. I was very happy. Queen, take Liu Zheng out, I haven't seen the emperor for a long time, let me kiss him. Hug it. ”

Yin Li's face changed, and she forced herself to laugh and said, "Okay, Lian'er, you go and come out with the nurse and the prince!" ”

Lian'er went to the back, and Yin Li gave Cui Huang a look, and Cui Huang understood. I clapped my hands, and there was another drum sound, and I saw two big men carrying a woman out with both hands, the woman was covered with green veil, and her eyes were turquoise, which was very weird. Sui'er remembered that Su An also had such eyes, not only strange, could this woman also be from Karasuma?

I saw that the woman saluted Liu Zhao and Yin Li, and then stepped on the two big men with her feet, dancing, and her feet landed on the shoulders and top of the heads of the two big men. The two big men didn't move at all, their eyes were wide open, and they looked very ridiculous. The sound of silk and bamboo is like a demon like a charm, extremely feminine, the woman twists her waist, her waist is like a willow, and it is thrilling and beautiful. Suddenly, the woman's feet slipped as if she were about to fall, and everyone let out an exclamation, but when they saw that she had landed steadily, they gave a gentle salute. The crowd began to shout "yes" again, and the cheers were thunderous.

Liu Zhao said: "Okay! This woman is a bearded girl, and this dance doesn't seem to be owned by the Central Plains. ”

Yin Li replied: "The emperor is right, her name is Ruth, and she is a Persian. The concubine also felt strange when she saw her for the first time, but she got used to it and felt that these eyes were also beautiful. And her skin is also a strange white, which is not used to it at first, but she feels good when she gets used to it. ”

Liu Zhao nodded and called the woman: "You show your arms, I will take a look!" ”

The woman really lifted the veil and exposed her arms, which were strangely white, but with a faint golden hair, which looked very strange. But it is not as good as the Central Plains woman, the skin is like a beauty, smooth and soft.

Liu Zhao shook his head and said: "Yiren is not as good as a woman of the Han Dynasty, but this dance is excellent, reward!" ”

After the Hu girl retreated, she saw Lian'er bring three nurses to hug Liu Zheng out. Liu was in swaddling clothes, but he looked extremely weak. Liu Zhao took the child, and saw that Liu Zheng was sleeping soundly, and his little face was quite soft under the light, but he was very light, he frowned and said, "Why is the child not as heavy as the little princess, wasn't he born first?" ”

Yin Li hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the little prince was born prematurely, his body was already weak, congenitally insufficient, these days the concubines are taking care of them day and night, but they have not seen any improvement, please forgive the emperor." ”

Liu Zhao kissed the child's forehead and said, "The queen worries about the child day and night, it's too hard. ”

"The concubine doesn't have anything, I just hope that the little prince will be safe and sound and grow up quickly." A compassionate look appeared on Yin Li's face, and Sui'er's heart was cold! The purpose of her holding Liu Zheng is not clear, just to stabilize her position in the harem and plan for the future throne. But pretending to be in front of Liu Zhao is really a sigh.

Liu Zhao asked, "Can the doctor see it?" What's the best way to do it? If the imperial doctor in the palace can't do it, go outside and find Imperial Doctor Lu to come in and have a look! ”

Yin Li said: "The concubine went to invite, but it was said that Imperial Doctor Lu went out to travel, and I don't know where he went?" I just hope that she will come back early and take a look for the emperor. If it can be adjusted well, it is also a blessing for the Han. ”

Liu Zhao nodded, "Exactly, Cai Lun, you pass on the decree, quickly find Mrs. Lu Qingying and come back!" ”

Liu Meiren said lukewarmly: "Are all the imperial doctors in the palace vegetarians?" What can a child have, this idea is not good. Your Majesty, it is better for the world to publish a list and find a capable person to treat the child. ”

Yuan Yi said: "Look at the appearance of the prince, it is mainly recuperation, and the concubine heard that it is not easy to raise folk children, so she gave the child a nickname, don't name it too big, the smaller the better." For example, there was a little girl in the concubine's original house called a puppy or something, hehe, I heard that he was weak when he was a child, and later he grew stronger than a bear! ”

As soon as she said this, all the concubines covered their mouths and smiled, and Liu Zhaoyin said with a gloomy face: "Nonsense, how precious is the emperor, how can he have that kind of name?" ”

Sui'er said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the concubines think it's okay, the nickname was called when I was a child, and when the prince grows up, I don't call it." ”

Liu Zhao thought for a while and said, "It's okay, but it can't be called a puppy, how about calling it Zhuangzhuang?" ”

Sui'er nodded, "This name is very good, I hope the little prince can grow strong." She can eat like a little princess, and the more she eats, the more beautiful she becomes. ”

When Liu Zhao heard this, he also thought about what Chu Lu said, and couldn't help laughing, "Okay, the more you eat, the more beautiful you are." ”

Everyone watched the two of them talk intimately, and they all had to laugh awkwardly, how awkward they were.

At this time, Liu Zheng suddenly woke up, stared at Liu Zhao with a pair of big eyes, and suddenly let out a crisp laugh, the child's voice was pleasant, Liu Zhao was very happy, and kissed the child again: "Look at this child, he has this name, and he is also happy!" ”

Yin Li was originally very impatient with any nickname or something, but when she saw that the child was laughing, she also said happily: "Congratulations to the emperor, the little prince really likes this name!" (To be continued.) )
