Chapter 231: The Palace Feast
Along Suzaku Street, the crowd followed the fairy to the palace. Such a spectacular scene like a long dragon made Tang An sigh in his heart. In his own world, even the most popular stars don't have this kind of treatment, right? It's a pity that there is no camera here, otherwise you must take a few more photos with Sister Fairy, one for five taels of silver.
The old eunuch Zhang Dayou bowed down to lead the way in front, touching the sweat on his head vigorously. It's not hot, it's scary. If the emperor sees that the fairy did not come on foot in a sedan chair, I don't know if he will condemn himself.
At the end of Suzaku Street, at the west gate of the palace, there was already a group of people standing in the dark. The concierge team of Honglu Temple stood at the door with all the brushes, which can be regarded as the highest standard of welcome. A cadre of ministers wearing official uniforms were lined up on both sides, in the center, Qin Tian stood tall in a dragon robe, and he actually greeted him in person.
Tang An said in a low voice: "Sister Fairy, the one who looks the most handsome standing in the middle is our Tang Emperor." He is the heaven of the common people, even if you ignore everyone, you have to give him a face. ”
Mu Rong didn't react at all, and he didn't know whether he listened to it or not, so Tang An pinched his waist with a look of failure.
Fuck, why is there such a woman with character in this world?
It stands to reason that the greeting should be carried out in accordance with the cumbersome process, but with Mu Rong's cold temperament, he will definitely not cooperate obediently, so he can simplify as much as possible. The process of reading the documents was erased, the sound of ceremonial music sounded, and a group of ministers who had received the news and hurriedly put on their official robes saluted together.
In addition to the emperor, Mu Rong is still the first person in the world who can enjoy this kind of treatment. However, she still looked indifferent, without any expression, and walked straight in front of Qin Tian, as if it was natural for civil and military officials to do this.
She looked at Qin Tian, bowed slightly, and said, "Your Majesty." ”
It's not easy to get two simple words out of her mouth. Seeing her give face like this, Tang An finally swallowed his heart into his stomach. Although this chick has a bad temper, she can still listen to the advice of others.
Qin Tian's eyes flashed with amazement, this unique cold and glamorous temperament, even if you are the emperor, it is the first time you have seen it.
Qin Tian returned the salute and said, "It is reported that Fairy Mu is here, and I am overjoyed. After a tiring journey, I prepared water and wine for the fairy. Please come with me. ”
"Thank you."
Qin Tiandang led the way in front first, thought about it, and then turned back and said, "Tang An, you can come along." ”
Many of the ministers saw Tang An for the first time, and their expressions varied. Some were curious, some were angry, but when they heard that Qin Tian wanted him to attend the state banquet, they were all shocked.
A guy who hasn't been an official for a few days can be so valued by the emperor. What is the origin of this guy?
Tang An smiled bitterly, and also saw that the emperor was pushing himself to the cusp. Sadly, he did not have the right to refuse.
By the time they arrived at the Concierge, it was already dark. However, the hall was lit with candles, and a long table stretched across the end was covered with a yellow tablecloth, on which some fruit snacks were already placed, which looked very tempting.
According to the rules, the envoys of various countries come to worship the Son of Heaven, and after the drums are played, the emperor should enter the palace first. The envoys saluted, the envoys of the Tang Dynasty announced the order, and then led the envoys to sit down, and finally the emperor asked the envoys of various countries.
However, Murong is clearly not among them.
The emperor and Mu Rong entered side by side, Qin Tian naturally took his seat on the main seat, beckoned Mu Rong to sit down on the opposite guest seat, and the ministers sat down one by one according to their official positions. Only Tang An rubbed his hands and didn't know where to sit.
Although he is free and easy, he also knows the dignity of etiquette. If you make a fuss on such an occasion, not only will you be laughed at, but you will also be smeared by the emperor.
Qin Tian saw his contradiction, pointed to the vacant seat beside Mu Rong, and said, "Tang An, you can sit there." ”
Looking at the position of the seat, Tang An knew that the emperor wanted to let him take care of the fairy! With a joy in his heart, he secretly sighed that the emperor was really interesting, and continued to create conditions for himself to pick up girls, and arched his hand: "Thank you for the emperor's grace!" ”
However, just as he was about to sit down, he saw a minister on his right stand up and say, "Your Majesty, no!" ”
Tang An took a closer look, this person was none other than Wan Shanchuan who was hijacked by Xie Qian on the day of the double competition. On that day, Tang An didn't care about his life and death in order to catch the murderer, presumably this old guy had a grudge and deliberately came to find fault.
Qin Tian frowned and said, "What does the Wan Qing family mean by this?" ”
"Your Majesty, the state banquet of our dynasty is a gift for receiving foreign guests, and it is very exquisite. Although this Lord Tang has inherited the emperor's grace, he has no official title. If it spreads, I'm afraid it will provoke right and wrong! ”
The reception of foreign envoys represents the face of the Tang Dynasty, and those who can sit here are all figures with great status. This trip to receive the apprentice of Master Mu, the first person in the world, can be regarded as the biggest feast in these years, if the status is not enough, there is no qualification to sit down at all.
Tang An sneered. This old thing, and it's making a fuss about identity!
None of the old guys stood up to make a statement, they just sat quietly, but their ears were pricked up, obviously wanting to see how Qin Tian responded.
Wan Shanchuan took the rules to talk about things, and it did occupy a courtesy. And Lord Chen of the Ministry of Rites is a person from Xiangguo, so he can't wait to make a little stumbling block for Tang An. It's just that he thought of being scolded by the emperor a few days ago, so he didn't speak.
Qin Tian's brows furrowed even deeper, and he glanced at Wan Shanchuan with an unkind look, but he didn't say anything. But the displeasure on his face could not be concealed.
Expose the emperor's ugliness in front of outsiders in public, Wan Jia's hand, but he forced himself to a dead end!
Tang An saw that Qin Tian was a little embarrassed, pondered for a moment, stood up and said, "Lord Li, why are you here?" ”
Wan Shanchuan's face turned dark, and he said, "The old man's surname is Wan!" ”
"Oh, sorry, misremember." Tang An scratched his head and said, "Last time Feixue Yue Lange was separated for many days, I didn't expect that the demeanor of the people was still the same, which was really overjoying." The two girls in the pavilion, Nanxin and Yuzhu, are talking about you all day long! ”
"What a south heart! The old man doesn't know! Wan Shanchuan said angrily.
Everyone held back their laughter, but they didn't dare to laugh out loud. Some old guys couldn't hide their approval in their eyes when they looked at Tang An.
first poured dirty water on Wan Shanchuan, and planted the impression that this person was not a good thing, and then what he was saying after that, I am afraid that he would not be recognized by the fairy.
seems to be messing around, but he can fight against the army so quickly, this little scholar is really a little anxious.
"Lord Wan, you can't wipe your mouth after eating and don't admit it! The two girls are looking forward to you, it is said that you should also promise to marry the two of you as the eighth and ninth concubines, how sad would it be if she heard this? Tang An looked indignant and looked at everyone: "Ladies and gentlemen, you come to evaluate this ceremony!" ”
"Don't spew blood!" Manzanchuan Express Road.
"Silence!"
Qin Yue, the sixth prince, who had been silent, stood up and said with a sullen face: "Wan Shanchuan, if you want to rebel, you can't do it!" Tang An has been an official for a short time, are you also Wuxia Ameng! If it's noisy again, get out of here! ”
Qin was offside and powerful, and this angry rebuke made Wan Shanchuan unable to fight back at all. This rhetoric of pulling the bias is obviously to help Tang An, but it is reasonable, so that Wan Shanchuan can only break his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.
"Sit down." Qin Tian said lightly, nodded to Mu Rong with a smile, and said, "Let the fairy see it." ”
A bland sentence, but it can't hide the blame for Wan Shanchuan. Embarrassed in front of the fairy, these mountains and rivers are too bold.
Mu Rong didn't smile, nor did she have any expression, as if even if the two quarreled, it had nothing to do with her.
Wan Shanchuan lost his face, even if there was more reason, he didn't dare to mention Fang Cai's matter anymore, so he could only glare at Tang An viciously.
Tang An had a sneer on the corner of his mouth, and secretly gave Wan Shanchuan a middle finger.
The third level... Is it coming so soon? Lao Tzu is not mentally prepared.
