Chapter 40: Pushing her out to show off
The Queen Mother's birthday banquet is placed in the imperial garden of the palace, gradually approaching autumn, the autumn stamens are ready to bloom, and the summer flowers are still in full bloom.
Enjoy the flowers, people, and food.
Ni Yueshan followed behind Ni Gaofei, and Ni Yueshan was followed by Ni Yueshuang!
Ni Yueshan has no interest in palace banquets, but Ni Yueshuang can't wait to live in this life.
"As a servant girl, you should have the appearance of a servant girl, so that you can see your nose and nose and heart, you look around, do you want to harm me, or do you want to harm the entire Ni family?"
Ni Yueshan walked forward without squinting, but the words he said were a lesson for Ni Yueshuang.
Ni Yueshuang looked displeased, but knew that she was just dressed as a maid now, and finally did not have a seizure.
Everyone present was seated, separated by men and women, sitting far away, Ni Yueshan as the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, with a noble status, the seat was second only to the royal ladies, she wore a veil, and was always particularly eye-catching among the women.
"This is the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion?" A palace maid stepped forward to ask Ni Yueshan.
Ni Yueshan responded: "Yes." β
The maidservant in front of her was dressed up, and naturally Ni Yueshan also knew about it and wanted to take care of it.
"Then the eldest lady, please come with the slave maid, the imperial concubine wants to see you."
Although she politely made a gesture of please, Ni Yueshan didn't see the half respectful meaning in her eyes.
Ni Yueshan stood up, Imperial Concubine?
After these days of understanding, she knows that the son of the imperial concubine is the fourth prince, and the daughter is the eldest princess, second only to the queen, and she is deeply favored by the emperor, and she is much more beautiful than the queen.
After all, the queen's son died early, and she never conceived again, and finally raised the second prince who had no mother by her side, so she got a son and had a future to rely on.
The second prince Jing Yuchen and the fourth prince Jing Chengzhi, she couldn't afford to offend both of them, but because of a Zou Yangyao, she offended both of them.
Ni Yueshan lowered her head, Ni Yueshuang wanted to follow, and the palace maid advised: "The imperial concubine said it, I only saw Miss Ni!" β
A maid should not keep up......
The maids are not allowed to bring it, but I am afraid that it is really not good.
Ni Yueshan curled the corners of her lips slightly, what do you want to do with her?
Frying and cooking?
Inside the Chengqian Palace.
Ni Yueshan was taken to a large hall, the palace maid went in, and Ni Yueshan brought.
Ni Yueshan looked around with the corner of her eye, and there were maidservants standing next to her, but each of them lowered their heads, and everything felt like they were out of the way.
The outer hall where Ni Yueshan is located is quiet, but there are always laughter and laughter in the hall.
Ni Yueshan is not in a hurry, after all, the queen mother's banquet is about to start, and this imperial concubine will not be long in coming.
The bead curtain was lifted, and the palace maid said coldly to Ni Yueshan: "Come in." β
Ni Yueshan walked in slowly, and in the inner hall, there seemed to be only one eldest princess and imperial concubine sitting.
"I've seen the imperial concubine, I've seen the eldest princess."
When Ni Yueshan arrived, the two women stopped chatting: "This is the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion who amazed everyone with her poems at your poetry meeting?" β
It was the imperial concubine who spoke, and her voice was crisp and beautiful, but Ni Yueshan knelt on the ground and couldn't look up, and she didn't know what the imperial concubine looked like.
"It's her, and you don't look up?" Jing Yu'e's voice was a little more majestic, and Ni Yueshan had no choice but to raise her head slowly.
The imperial concubine saw Ni Yueshan wearing a veil, and she had a surprised expression: "Why hide it?" β
Ni Yueshan didn't believe that the imperial concubine would not know about her face, Ni Yueshan only responded respectfully: "Back to the imperial concubine, the folk girl knows that she looks ugly, so she doesn't dare to show it, for fear of frightening a timid ......."
"What nonsense, the parents who are exposed to the body, no matter what it is, it is the gift of the parents, so secretive, you are suspected of being a mother."
This is a great unfilial piety to the mother!
Ni Yueshan was depressed in her heart, but she was an imperial concubine, how could she be disobedient?
"The lesson of the imperial concubine is that the people are really afraid that someone will be frightened because of this!"
"If it's broad daylight, you'll be scared by your appearance, and there's no need to come out to meet people in the future!"
So it's not that the scared person deserves it, but that she comes out and scares the person who deserves it, so she should shrink into the house and don't come out......
It's not okay to wear a veil, it's not okay to scare people, it's all wrong horizontally and vertically, and now this face is also her fault.
"Yes." Ni Yueshan took off her veil depressedly, and the imperial concubine showed a satisfied expression.
After that, she said kindly: "Your poetry is good, at today's banquet, you will compose a poem in front of the Queen Mother, and now you will start thinking about it, thinking about it, in front of the Queen Mother, there is plenty of time!" β
In front of the Queen Mother, at that time, I was afraid that it was the time when everyone was in the limelight, right?
If she takes off her veil and is seen by others, she will be despised by everyone, and if she writes poetry badly, she will be despised for one more contempt, and then she will become famous.
Maybe she will be rumored, ugly, shameless, self-conscious, and embarrassing.
This imperial concubine is absolutely amazing!
Compared with the eldest princess's methods, it is much more clever.
If she refuses, she will be punished, but if she obeys, she will be spurned and despised.
Ni Yueshan followed out of the Chengqian Palace, and Jing Yu'e followed the imperial concubine talking and laughing, as if Ni Yueshan did not exist.
When she arrived at the entrance of the banquet, Jing Yu'e looked at Ni Yueshan, who had been following behind her: "Miss Ni, do you remember what the imperial concubine said just now?" I will compose a poem in front of the Queen Mother, so that the Queen Mother will be happy, come, go in with the princess and the imperial concubine. β
Ni Yueshan stood stubbornly in place, and said a little timidly: "The folk girl suddenly has some stage fright and wants to go to the toilet, can you give the folk girl some time, and the folk girl will go back when she goes?" β
Ni Yueshan had stage fright at this time, just wanting to hide.
Jing Yu'e took Ni Yueshan's hand, patted the back of her hand, and comforted: "Don't be afraid, the imperial grandmother has always been kind, and it won't take much time to compose a poem." β
"You only flicked your fingers at the poetry meeting that day, and the poem was made, and this time I gave you such a long time, I believe you will be able to do it."
Then she took Ni Yueshan's hand and asked Ni Yueshan to follow her.
Want to back off? That can't be!
Everyone at the banquet was basically here, the imperial concubine came, and the palace people raised their voices: "The imperial concubine has arrived-"
"The eldest princess has arrivedβ"
With the elongated voice, everyone present stood up and saluted, and naturally Ni Yueshan fell into everyone's sight.
Ni Yueshan's expression was as usual, and she didn't retreat.
Since she can't go, her appearance is also doomed, so she won't hide it, anyway, who doesn't know that she is an ugly girl?
"See the Imperial Concubine."
"I've seen Her Royal Highness the Princess."
When Ni Yueshuang saw Ni Yueshan who was following Jing Yu'e and the imperial concubine, the corners of her mouth raised a disdainful smile, today's palace banquet, it was Ni Yueshan who came brightly, but maybe, it will be Ni Yueshan who will be depressed from now on!
"Everyone, hurry up, where can this palace afford your great gifts, or wait for the emperor and the queen mother to come, and then do this great gift."
"Yueshan, follow this princess well, don't run around." Jing Yu'e looked at Ni Yueshan with interest, because she grabbed hard, Ni Yueshan felt some pain in her palm.
She stood behind Jing Yu'e, and the imperial concubine sat in the second place of the queen, but just after she stood up, the eunuch spread the news that the queen mother, the emperor, and the queen were present.
Today's birthday banquet of the Queen Mother is really extraordinary, and all the distinguished people are here.
After the tedious salute, everyone sat down again.
The imperial concubine couldn't wait to speak: "Queen Mother, today's birthday banquet, although the concubines change their patterns every year to embroider as a birthday gift, but after all, they still can't escape the embroidery work." β
"This year is different, the concubine has discovered a genius, she can compose poems at her fingertips, and she is very talented in poetry, at the banquet of the eldest princess's mansion, many people have seen it."
composing poems with a snap of her fingers, this imperial concubine really lifted her, and she was not afraid of overblowing.
It still takes time for her to recall poetry, where is it done in a few seconds?
"Oh?" Sure enough, this gimmick attracted the Queen Mother who had just sat down.
"Who is it that has such ability?"
All kinds of rare treasures, the Queen Mother has seen them, and they are not uncommon in her eyes, but the person who writes poetry with her fingers has really not seen it.
Jing Yu'e stood up at this time: "Imperial grandmother, this person is the concubine of the Prime Minister's Mansion, she said it today, and she wants to use poetry to entertain the imperial grandmother!" β
After that, Jing Yu'e looked at Ni Yueshan behind her, not to mention that her eyes were so friendly.
Ni Yueshan slandered in his heart, and he was the king of the show!
The gazes cast on her really made people feel a lot of pressure, like a man's back.
Ni Yueshan stepped forward in a regular manner: "The people have seen the Queen Mother, I wish the Queen Mother a blessing like the East China Sea, and a longevity better than Nanshan!" β
Ni Gaofei's eyes straightened, when did Ni Yueshan run behind the eldest princess, so many people were present, what kind of limelight was there?
Ni Yueshuang was still standing behind Ni Yueshan's seat, she looked at Ni Yueshan with disdain, to see how Ni Yueshan managed to escape today, after all, she didn't believe that Ni Yueshan had any poetic talent!
Last time, it must have been Ni Yueshan who was cunning and ready to plagiarize!
The civil and military officials on the seat are also all in line, Zou Yangyao among the military generals, when he saw Ni Yueshan, the hand holding the wine glass slowly tightened, the eldest princess's mansion, Ni Yueshan hurt him, and it still hurts, the doctor said, if he is more ruthless, I am afraid that he will really cut off his children and grandchildren.
Ni Yueshan dared to come to the palace banquet to show off, and today she will not let Ni Yueshan lose her skin, and she will not give up!
Jing Yuchen picked up the wine glass in front of him, and his evil eyes squinted at Ni Yueshan, this woman is a controversial one wherever she goes.
I don't know how to become the laughing stock of everyone in the capital after dinner, and discuss it with relish for a while.
"It's a sensible child, get up, don't kneel, raise your head, and let the mourning family take a good look."
Ni Yueshan's head is very low, and her natural appearance has never been seen clearly by the Queen Mother, but there are rumors about her, I am afraid that the Queen Mother has also heard of it a little, and she may have been disgusted for a long time.
