Chapter 253: Hongmen Banquet 1
On the day of the Mulberry Silkworm Festival, Jin Su wore the cloud brocade clothes sent to her by Jin Yan to the banquet as promised. She has always been low-key and elegant, even if she is dressed in Yunjin Hua, the makeup on her face is still faint.
The banquet was held in the Queen's Changle Palace, before the official start, the Queen personally led them to the Begonia House to pick mulberry leaves, according to custom, their female dependents need to pick a piece of moderate size, old and tender mulberry leaves back to raise young silkworms.
This was originally a participatory experience game, but in order to increase its fun, the queen specially asked them to make their own marks on the mulberry leaves they picked, and claimed that whoever had the cleanest mulberry leaves would take out the Tianshan snow silkworm as a reward.
The medicinal material of the Tianshan snow silkworm is much more precious than the snow lotus, which is Jinsu, who has never seen it in all these years of practicing medicine. Therefore, when the queen showed everyone the snow silkworms of the Tianshan Mountains, she was so fascinated that she didn't hear Jin Ruolin shouting her several times.
"Jinsu~"
"Jinsu~"
"Ruo ----" Jin Su turned his head, lightly "bah", and shouted affectionately, "Princess Yi~"
Jin Ruolin pursed his lips and smiled, his smile was still as dignified and generous as before, and he didn't seem to mind Jinsu at all when he shouted wrong.
"I haven't seen you for a long time, why are you still thinner than before? It seems that being a princess is not as easy as being a young lady! After Jinsu finished speaking, he smiled gloatingly.
Jin Ruolin pushed Jin Su and said angrily, "Go and go, I haven't seen you for a long time, why do you make fun of me as soon as you meet?" ”
The two of them were talking and laughing, and they were about to follow everyone to Haitang House to pick mulberry leaves, but who knew that Lixiang trotted over to stop the two of them, and said, "Princess, wait, this mulberry leaf, you better not go to pick it, in case you fall again, the slave can't afford it!" ”
"It's okay, where is it so delicate!" Jin Ruolin said calmly.
"Don't worry, Lixiang, why don't you just pick a mulberry leaf, as for it?" Jinsu said.
"However, the prince repeatedly told you to rest and raise, you said that you came to have a good time, forget it, don't go to pick mulberry leaves," Lixiang pleaded, her face looking very embarrassed.
"Get out of the way!" Jin Ruolin said solemnly.
Seeing this, Lixiang immediately pulled Jinsu and begged in a low voice, "Miss An, my princess is pregnant, so it's really not appropriate to be tired!" ”
"Oh~" Jin Su glanced at Jin Ruolin in surprise, and then said happily, "It turned out that I was happy, why didn't I say it earlier?" How long has it been? ”
"It's not been two months," Reika replied.
"Princess, I didn't say you, it's too embarrassing to hide such an important matter from me!"
"Who wants to hide it from you, you are embarrassed to say, I have wanted to find you several times, but you have been grounded, what can I do?" Jin Ruolin said aggrievedly.
"Oh oh, well, well, it's mine, it's mine!" Jinsu smiled and apologized.
Seeing that the army had gone away, Jin Ruolin glanced at her helplessly, and said, "Hurry up, when you come back, we will have a good chat." ”
"Okay, go back and rest, a woman needs to be raised the most when she is pregnant, especially in the first trimester. Everything you eat and drink has to be carefully examined, oh yes, some flowers and trees can't be very close, because ......"
"Got it, when did it become so verbose!" Jin Ruolin said with a smile of disgust, and at the same time pushed her.
Jin Su turned around, the two looked at each other and smiled, and then she trotted to Haitang Residence.
I always thought that there was a chance to talk with Jin Ruolin again at the banquet, but the fact is that she is the daughter of a minister, how can she sit next to Princess Yi?
"Ladies and gentlemen, male ploughing and female weaving is the earliest division of labor between husband and wife, our mulberry silkworm festival today, the purpose of which is also to use such a simple form to express the role that our female dependents should play in the family relationship, we should be like silkworms, firmly guard their own home, the so-called family and everything can be prosperous."
"In addition, this banquet needs to wait for the results of the young silkworms eating mulberry leaves, and it will last for a long time, so the palace has specially arranged folk juggling and singing opera for everyone's entertainment, if you are tired, you can also go to the side hall to rest."
After the queen finished speaking impassionedly, everyone raised their glasses again and shouted "Queen, mighty" three times. After that, it's time to watch the show freely.
Most of the young ladies and concubines, at this time, also gathered together in pairs of threes.
Jin Ruolin is the princess, and there are many people who want to tie up and please her, so she is surrounded to death. And An Xiayu has always been by the side of the concubine Niangniang, perhaps because she is worried about Fengyao, so that the concubine Niangniang, who had infinitely good scenery in the past, looks a little sluggish today.
It was at this time that she found out that the Queen Mother was also there, but she had been sitting in a biased position, talking to Jin Yan and Nuo Min, who were on the left and right, and covering her mouth and smiling from time to time.
It seems that the enemies have all come together, and she is in danger of being doomed today! Originally, I wanted to talk to Jin Ruolin or An Xiayu, but now that I think about it, I should stay away from them.
Just as he was thinking about it, a palace maid behind him heard an "oops" sound, and Jin Su looked back and saw that it was the palace maid who spilled the whole cup of sweet soup on Bai Zhi.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, this sister, I'm sorry," the palace maid apologized again and again.
Without waiting for Jin Su to get up, a grandmother rushed over and scolded the hairy palace maid, and then wiped Bai Zhi's skirt while apologizing, "I'm sorry, Miss, girl, it's not hot, right?" Why don't you take the slave to change your clothes? ”
"It's okay, no need," Bai Zhi refused.
"How? If the girl doesn't agree, she must still not forgive her, right? He turned his head and shouted to the palace maid, "Don't apologize quickly, it's frizzy, but fortunately it didn't spill on the young lady, otherwise you won't have enough ten heads to cut off!" ”
The little palace maid was about to kneel down and admit her mistake, but Jin Su gave her a hand and said generously, "That's it, that's it, it's okay if it's not hot, Bai Zhi, you go and change into clean clothes." ”
"But Miss----"
"Don't worry, I'm here, it'll be fine," said Jin Su gently patted Bai Zhi's hand, took the opportunity to transfer the token to Bai Zhi's hand, and then continued to persuade, "Wouldn't it be a loss of honor for you to go to see the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother like this, go and change into a clean one." ”
Bai Zhi nodded, muttered "Okay", and when she turned around, her eyes were full of worry.
In this regard, Jin Su only smiled faintly and waved her hand, signaling her to leave with peace of mind.
Here we go!
The first step, as she expected, was to transfer Angelica Angelica out of Bai Zhi and let her be alone; The next second step should be to lure her into the game.
