101 Palace Banquet(1)
In the spacious open space in front of the Imperial Garden, invited civil and military officials gathered in groups to discuss national affairs.
There are two people who are the most unsociable, one is Wu Qingwen, who was scolded by Xiao Jingyan a few days ago, the old man's knees trembling when he knelt in front of the Taihe Palace, and at the moment when the old bones fell apart, Xiao Jingyan, who was panicked, was afraid that he would die at the gate of the Taihe Palace, so he hurriedly asked the old man Wu to be forcibly carried back.
Although the old man Wu stubbornly staged a drama of "swearing to the death", in the end, his body was not angry, and he was obediently carried back.
This humiliating incident that is known to all the people in the dynasty makes Old Man Wu look at everyone with three points of "fierce" anger now, knowing that he is rigid, in order to prevent innocent people from being scolded, everyone consciously stays away from him.
The other is Xiao Kun, the third prince of the current dynasty who was only lifted by the regent early this morning, and the evil spirit of that body can summon the bull-headed imps in the underworld, and no one dares to get close to him.
Moreover, now that the situation is unknown, Xiao Kun was imprisoned for a month. When he came out, he saw that those who had supported him in the court were exiled, and those who were beheaded were beheaded...... Rounded up, it's almost dead.
Half of the power in his hand was lost in an instant, and there was no doubt that this half naturally fell into the hands of his "amiable and respectable" imperial uncle.
In the eyes of outsiders, this is a plot to seize power!
In the end, the regent won from the undefeated "ruthless", and the third prince lost a poor and white one.
At this time, if anyone rushes to make friends with the third prince, maybe the next moment will become a thorn in the eye of the regent, and another "lucky person" will be added to the exiled army.
These courtiers are all human spirits, and they think that they can see the situation of the Liang Dynasty clearly, and they will suffer in a hurry.
When the "male protagonist" - the regent who was discussed by the ministers and their families appeared on the stage, everyone couldn't help but brush their heads to the side, and suddenly many female dependents gasped.
They all know the demeanor of the regent, it is the posture of heaven and man, but this princess regent, Chiba Begonia, is lifelike and beautiful; The flying warbler of the perched branch was vivid, as if it was about to fly out of the girl's skirt, and the palace dress of the same color as the regent complemented each other, and the two stood together, and for a while they couldn't tell the winner.
Or that the regent who is used to seeing the cold and cold, and the princess regent, who is suddenly simple and has a cold look, is even better.
Many young ladies of the family looked down at their outfits piled up with money, and they were jealous and ashamed.
It turned out that the orphan daughter of the Mu family was so beautiful.
Especially Xiao Kun, the moment he saw Mu An, he was stunned for a moment - is this still that little slut?
After a closer look, he inadvertently looked away.
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then shouted in unison: "See the prince, see the princess." β
For the first time, Mu An was "welcomed" by so many people, and moved the corners of his mouth a little unnaturally, it was cool to follow the big guy!
These people in front of them, no matter how unhappy they are, they have to hold back obediently!
Especially Bai Shiji and Bai Li, seeing that Mu An's eyes were about to burn with anger, Mu An sneered, and he was not afraid to burn himself into a dry corpse.
Mu An's escape from Baifu intact has always been Bai Shiji's heart attack, and his depression is difficult to settle, but Xiao Kun was imprisoned by Xiao Ci, and he couldn't mess with himself for a while, so he self-righteously let Mu Anduo live happily for a while.
As everyone knows, the praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind, if he really does something to Mu An, the guillotine will have his place.
Bai Susu glanced at Mu An from a distance, she no longer has dealings with the young ladies in the Beijing circle, these young ladies are respectful in front of her, and when they come to the back, the broken words never stop, before Bai Susu obtained her noble superiority in these young ladies, but since she was framed by Mu An, stay away from these people.
Bai Susu suddenly found that these people in their bones were not worthy of her face at all, but they saw a lot of things more clearly.
Mu An gave a smile back from afar, Bai Susu sneered coldly, and looked at Xiao Kun, who was alone, she lowered her head and her eyes darkened.
To be honest, she doesn't have any hope for Mu An anymore, in her eyes, Mu An is a scheming and vicious person, mostly to get away and deceive her.
Now it's the real princess of Daqi, and the palace banquet is today, what can she do?
Maybe after today, the third prince of Daliang will have one more concubine.
The eunuch who was hanging shouted like a magpie: "Princess Daqi has arrived-".
Princess Daqi saw the emperor in the Taihe Palace, and then rushed to the imperial garden to participate in the banquet, and the civil and military officials were silent in an instant, waiting to see this princess.
Mu An secretly pinched Xiao Ci's tiger mouth and teased in a low voice: "Brother Xiao Ci, your crazy suitor is here." β
Xiao Ci: "......"
As she was talking, Jiang Xue was dressed in a gorgeous shadow veil and swayed, and she was gently helped in by the maidservant girl, she looked around contemptuously, enjoying the courtesy of the hundred officials.
After a deliberate pause, he nodded mockingly: "Get up." β
This gesture didn't take the Liang courtiers in his eyes at all, and the courtiers looked at her with a little dissatisfaction.
Mu An smiled, secretly pulled the octagon next to her, and said in her ear: "You see that Princess Daqi is wearing this statue and does not look like a walking candle. β
Octagonal: "......"
She took a closer look, it was really quite similar, and Octagon held back a smile and reminded in a low voice: "Miss, be cautious." β
Mu Annunu mouthed, and when he looked up and saw Xiao Ci staring at her, he was afraid that he heard her words, his face twitched for a while, and Mu An secretly made a grimace at him.
Sure enough, the next moment, Jiang Xue walked over quickly regardless of the maid's obstruction, and when she saw Mu An's expression, Mu An gave her a kind look in her eyes: Be obedient.
Jiang Xue's chest was heavy, and she was about to be angry, her mouth full of dirty words was pressed down by the last bit of nerves, and she endured full of anger and jealousy - today's Mu An is really radiant, and no one has covered her scenery in this huge imperial garden.
Turning her gaze to Xiao Ci, Jiang Xue quickly changed to an admiring and shy look, and curtsied: "I've seen the prince." β
The very eye-catching regent smelled the sour smell from his wife, and just nodded slightly, and his expression didn't even change, how perfunctory he wanted to be.
Jiang Xue's body couldn't help but shake, and she was aggrieved to death.
The eunuch's long voice sounded again: "Your Majesty, the queen has arrived-".
"The Queen Mother has arrivedβ"
"The concubine has arrivedβ"
After a few long voices like a gift list, all the officials consciously dispersed, and went over to salute and sit down.
Mu An raised his head and said to Xiao: "You go first, I'll wait." β
After speaking, he deliberately pushed Xiao Ci, and Xiao Ci turned around step by step to go to the upper position.
Jiang Xueqi's tears were about to come out, and she hated Mu An more and more in her heart, and her expression became gloomy.
"Princess, don't look at me like this", Mu An approached her and whispered: "Don't forget, I have a firm grasp of the princess's lifeline, and if I want to stay in Daliang, the princess had better be obedient today." β
Jiang Xue glared at her angrily, almost biting her lip: "Mu An'an, you wait for this princess." β
"Oh, the princess had better be polite? I'm a person with a lot of mood swings, and the more I think about it, the more unhappy I become, but I like to sue, especially when there are so many people today, which is exactly what I want. β
If it weren't for the presence of so many people, Jiang Xue could slap Mu An in the face, eager to tear her face.
Ah Tao trembled and pulled Jiang Xue, cautiously: "Princess, don't be angry." β
"Get out!" Jiang Xue shook off Ah Tao and scolded her in a low voice.
It's nothing more than a dog slave who doesn't know what to do, Mu An felt that his ears were dirty, he reached out and took it, and said with a smile: "The princess is a guest, so she naturally sits in the front, almost in the same row as the princess, since this is the case, the princess will cooperate a lot." β
After Mu An finished speaking, he deliberately raised his chin arrogantly following her example, returned his contemptuous gaze to her, and looked at Jiang Xue's distorted face full of hatred, almost in the direction of Xiao Ci with arrogance.
When she passed by Bai Susu's side, she patted Bai Susu while people were not paying attention, and when Bai Susu turned around, she found that the stunning figure had reached two steps away.
Mu An sat down beside Xiao Ci, and without looking up, she felt a few beams of gaze above her head, including Xiao Jingyan's, the queen's, and white agarwood...... and so on colorful concubines.
For better or worse, she is narcissistic and jealous of her beauty.
As soon as Fang sat down, Xiao Jingyan raised his hand, the eunuch next to him read Daqi's gift list, the ministers exchanged their heads and sighed at each other, Jiang Xue's face softened slightly, and he got up and said: "I would like to express my condolences to the emperor on behalf of my father, long live the emperor, long live the emperor." β
Jiang Xue did this string of palace rules and regulations to be generous and smooth, and the queen couldn't help but look at it twice and nodded with satisfaction.
Xiao Jingyan squeezed out a little smile: "The princess doesn't need to be polite, I have been sick for many days, but I have neglected the princess." β
Jiang Xue said with a smile: "Shengjing is prosperous, Xiaoxue has been playing for a few more days, but I like it very much." β
Bai Agarwood fiddled with her nails, stared at Jiang Xue for a while, her expression was slightly dark, and she said in a strange manner: "What the princess likes is not the scenery of Shengjing, but the people of Shengjing." β
Xiao Jingyan glared at her, and Bai Agarwood hung his head and shut up.
After being silent for a moment, Jiang Xue lowered her head very appropriately, as if she had been told what she was thinking, she was embarrassed, and her eyes deliberately pretended to peek and shot at the regent on the side.
Everyone said that following her gaze, the regent didn't seem to take the princess of Daqi in his eyes at all, and affectionately hugged the princess regent next to him, bowed his head and said something, with a little smile on the corner of his mouth.
Jiang Xue hurriedly retracted her gaze, curtsied, and retreated.
This scene of Lang's love for concubines really shocked many people, and the ladies behind them admired Mu An's eyes a lot.
Mu An took Xiao Ci's hand and explained with a smile: "I just don't drink today." β
"Madame, this king is willing to bow down", Xiao Ci restrained the smile at the corner of his mouth, and his fingers gently hooked in Mu An's palm.
Mu An shuddered, raised his eyes tightly, and apologized softly: "It was an accident last time, I drank sobering soup in advance, you see I'm not drunk, anyway, I didn't embarrass you, don't be angry, okay." β
Xiao Ci said in a deep voice: "Consider it as appropriate." β
