Chapter 220: The Banquet of the Fang Palace

Shenghua's face immediately darkened: "Leave you gloating!" ”

Qingli admitted solemnly: "I'm sorry, I'm indeed gloating! When Shenghua heard this, he only wanted to turn his back in one breath, this person was also disgusted, knowing that Liu Ruxue's incident caused a storm in the city, ruining his face and destroying his face with nothing, so that his mother thought that he really planned to make a private agreement with Liu Ruxue for life, and was stunned to clean him up, at this time he not only didn't help him to think of a way, but also gloated, don't you want to lose it so much

Qingli smiled, got up and patted Shenghua on the shoulder, "Don't worry, the last incident is already the worst, believe me, there will never be a more tragic situation than yours tomorrow!" ”

He instructed Su Niang to say a lot of good things about Qingyuan, and also asked Su Niang to amplify Qingyuan's current situation many times and relay it to Liu Ruxue, making her think that Qingyuan had the heart to protect her but was limited by lack of power, he believed that Liu Ruxue would be even more unbearable to see Qingyuan so reluctant and incapable after understanding Qingyuan's intentions for her.

It's just that although his plans have been arranged, looking at Shenghua's jumping, tangled, and helpless expression because Liu Ruxue will attend tomorrow is still quite "pleasing to the eye", so he temporarily decided to tease him again, and for the time being, he will not tell him about the fact that he has already arranged a qiē.

The next day, at the east gate of the palace, carriages lined up in an orderly manner, one by one to be inspected by the forbidden army, and then allowed to enter the palace.

This is the first time that the new emperor has chosen a concubine banquet, not to mention that if he is elected by the new emperor this time, he will have a better chance of getting the back position. It is the people invited to this banquet, they are all the daughters of high-ranking and powerful officials in the middle of the court, and they are also the candidates who were personally selected by the national teacher.

In addition to the emperor, the rest of the invited princes and princes of the family should be seated according to the number of courtesies. Waiting for the emperor's arrival. Shenghua was also present because Liu Ruxue was also present, and he was living and dying in Lanyue Zhai, for a moment. Two quarters, half an hour, half an hour

It wasn't until Qingli's carriage stopped outside Lanyuezhai to urge him that he pulled his robe unhappily. followed and got into Qingli's carriage.

Why didn't he ride in his own carriage?

There's only one reason for that, pretending to be poor!

Sheng Huafu got into the carriage. I saw Qingli wearing a purple brocade robe, with an agate jade crown on his head, and a branch of Su Lan embroidered on the collar, which made him more and more heroic. Shenghua pursed his lips and sat down beside him, ignoring the fact that his ass pressed the corner of Qingli's brocade robe. "Lili, are you crazy?"

"Huh?" Qingli held a small white ball in his hand. was staring at it with his eyes down, hearing Shenghua's complaints, and squinting at him.

"You dress plainly on weekdays, why is it suddenly gorgeous today, tsk, look at this Sulan purple robe, my mother gave it to you and haven't seen you wear it once, at this time the emperor wants to choose a concubine, you wear this body, don't you want to steal the limelight from the emperor?"

Shenghua suddenly came up with a thought, today Qingli cleaned himself up so handsome and beautiful, cough cough, forgive him for his words, it's just that Qingli's outfit today touched his heart just now, presumably those official women at the banquet couldn't resist Qingli's attraction, he was thinking, Liu Ruxue would have a good impression of him, but his handsome appearance at the rain prayer ceremony was glimpsed in front of her eyes, maybe today Liu Ruxue saw his shabby appearance, and then took a look at Qingli, Just shifted your attention to Qingli?

Today, he deliberately found a worn-out clothes from the shopkeeper and put them on himself, in order to be able to narrow the target as much as possible, not to attract attention, he didn't want to be forced to marry early, what fun was there in that life, in order to create his poor and sour image, he didn't even hang his favorite tea-scented purse, so he simply tied a dark belt.

Thinking about Shenghua, he laughed and made a "sneer" sound, if it became like that, he would like to see if the Qingli in front of him, whose face did not change when Mount Tai collapsed on the top, would be as he was at the beginning, and was frightened by Liu Ruxue and suddenly changed color.

If you want to say that Shenghua is a person, he is always sometimes reliable and sometimes unreliable when it comes to serious things, but if it comes to his crow's mouth and whimsy, he can really be regarded as a hundred tests, of course, this conclusion was only realized by himself during the banquet.

The carriage soon arrived at the gate of the palace, and after stopping, the forbidden army lifted the curtain of the carriage, and when they saw Qingli and Shenghua sitting inside, they hurriedly bowed their heads and saluted, and at the same time waved their hands to signal their companions behind them to let them go.

After entering the palace, the carriages were parked in accordance with the predetermined places, and Qingli didn't wait for Shenghua to come out of his fantasy, so he got out of the carriage one step ahead of him.

Shenghua heard the movement, and then suddenly came back to his senses, hurriedly got out of the car, and chased forward to follow Qingli to the Fang Palace.

As soon as the two of them entered the Fang Palace, they attracted the attention of many official women who had already taken their seats, of course, at this time, they could ignore Shenghua, Qingli stepped over the threshold, his movements were elegant and uninhibited, and the whole person came in from the door of the palace, as if he had his own brilliance, and his extraordinary outfit, handsome face, and his warm smile, all of which made those official women look fascinated.

Shenghua followed him as if he was his attendant, which was also the effect Shenghua wanted, the two sat down next to each other in the banquet, and the eyes of the official women opposite also followed, Qingli as if he didn't see it at all, first slowly took off his robe and sat down, then straightened the hem of his clothes, and put the white ball he had been holding in his hand on the table in front of him.

Since the banquet has not yet begun, the drinks and dishes on the banquet have not yet been moved, Shenghua has been half-hanging his head since he sat down, showing people with a small half of his hair, and he is silently reciting in his heart: "You can't see me, you can't see me, you can't see me."

Qingli glanced at him, and listened to the whispers in his ears, and laughed to himself, Shenghua was really scared, it seems that this joke seems to have gone a little too far, and he actually forced Shenghua to be like this.

Shaking his head helplessly, he looked sideways at Shenghua: "Xiao Shengsheng, it's almost over, I have already planned, Liu Ruxue will not eat you!" ”

When Shenghua heard this, he immediately raised his head, and his eyes were glued to Qingli's face for the next moment, as if he wanted to see if he was making fun of him, or if he really had an arrangement, Qingli nodded helplessly, Shenghua's eyes narrowed, and he grinned: "Lili, from last night to just now, you deliberately scared me?" ”

Qingli was noncommittal about his accusation, and laughed it off, he even dared to provoke his eldest princess, how could he let go of him, a brother who was even easier to tease?

"The National Teacher has arrived!"

With the sound of the palace supervisor, Liu Rumo entered the hall, and the originally noisy Chufang Hall quieted down, and everyone looked at the people who came in at the door, not daring to chat wantonly.

Qingli stopped gossiping with Shenghua at this time, raised his eyes to look over, and was facing Liu Rumo's gaze, after the two eyes met for a moment, Liu Rumo took a step away and slowly walked to his seat.

"Today is the day to choose a concubine for the emperor, everyone should not be formal, just relax!" Liu Rumo stood in his position and raised his voice.

"Yes, follow the teachings of the National Teacher!" The women of the official family replied in unison.

Liu Rumo bowed his head slightly and sat down, and his position was only separated from Qingli by a narrow aisle.

Yao Su followed Liu Lin to prepare to enter the palace early today, but after Liu Lin sent her to the gate of the Chufang Palace and left, she couldn't help but feel angry when she found a seat according to the sign issued to her by the palace supervisor.

She now occupies Liu Ruxue's body, and she can be regarded as the sister of the national teacher, but the position arranged is actually the last seat of the women of the official family, that is, the closest position to the palace gate, so how can she let Qingyuan see herself at a glance?

is so far away, not to mention whether Qingyuan can see her, it is herself, and it is a big problem to see Qingyuan on the throne from most of the palace.

It was also because Yaosu focused on the issue of the seat, and did not notice the fact that Qingli and Shenghua came in, otherwise she would not have the heart to continue to dwell on the issue of the seat, with the same appearance of Qingli and Limo, she was afraid that she would not be able to think of hooking up with Qingyuan again, and she couldn't help but run to Qingli for a long time.

When Qingyuan came, everyone stood up according to the ceremony, facing the direction of the throne, and followed Qingyuan slowly out of the back of the hall and sat down on the throne, until Qingyuan waved his hand and signaled the tips of his ears beside him to give an order, so that everyone was seated, and when the banquet began, they all sat down one after another.

First of all, the performance of the dancing girls arranged in the early morning is counted as the opening of the whole banquet, and then according to the previous arrangement of the Ministry of Rites, the performances of the women of the official family will begin in order of seating.

Yao Su actually didn't need to prepare anything, Liu Ruxue's body was very soft, she began to prepare when she learned that she could participate in the concubine selection banquet, tried the dance she knew at the beginning, and found that Liu Ruxue's body wanted to dance her original dances without any obstacles, on the contrary, because Liu Ruxue's waist is slender, her body is soft, and many movements are more smooth, how can her dance be comparable to these mortal women?

Yao Su was convinced of this, but she ignored one point, that is, since her position was arranged at the end, Liu Rumo naturally would not let her be in the limelight, at least she would not be allowed to win the place of Qingyuan's concubine with one move. (To be continued)
