Chapter 4: Celebration Banquet
Near evening, two carriages were parked in front of the Su Mansion, and Master Su slowly walked out with Su Yunian and Su Jinrou.
Su Yunian had a veil on his face, and he could also see the posture of the alluring city from his looming appearance. Su Jinrou was secretly happy in her heart, just now her aunt said that Su Yunian had a rash on her face, and today's banquet was the day she was in the limelight.
Su Jinrou didn't restrain herself, and said mockingly: "Why is Sister Yan wearing a veil?"
Su Yunian just glanced at Su Jinrou lightly, ignored her, and went straight to the carriage.
The carriage that Su Yunian was riding stopped in front of the palace gate with Master Su, and Su Yunian stood in front of the palace gate, looking at the majestic palace and looking at the magnificence.
The two red lacquered Zhujin Palace doors slowly opened to both sides, and Su Yunian followed Master Su on the promenade, flying eaves and arches, carved railings and jade masonry, magnificent.
The pillars carved with auspicious dragons are shining with golden light, and the palaces are scattered and stand majestically.
Su Yunian felt that this was the most luxurious cage in the world, trapping the fresh lives in it, with red faces and dry bones, and white bones piled up into mountains.
The beauty is in the twilight, and it is the most ruthless emperor's family.
When Master Su and the others arrived, the banquet had not yet begun, so he took his two daughters and sat down in the middle.
As soon as he sat down, Su Yunian felt that there was a gaze staring at him tightly, and he followed the gaze, it was His Royal Highness the Prince. Su Yunian retracted his gaze and suppressed the throbbing in his heart.
"Master Su is really blessed, his son is on the battlefield, and his daughter is so beautiful!" The seat next to him was the Chen family, the secretary of the military department.
"Master Chen is polite, your daughter is also very beautiful!" Master Su was naturally happy when he heard others praise his children.
"Your Majesty and Empress have arrived!" shouted the eunuch's father-in-law at the top of his voice.
All the courtiers fell to their knees. "Long live the emperor, long live the queen, long live the queen!"
"All Aiqing is flat, today is a celebration banquet, there is no distinction between monarchs and ministers. ”
"The king of war and others have been rehabilitated and meritorious, and they will be rewarded with a thousand gold. "The emperor sits on the top, majestic and majestic, and the spirit of a king is natural.
"The minister (son) thanked the emperor (father)!"
"Your Majesty, the little girl is good at piano, chess, calligraphy, painting and dancing, I wonder if I can offer a dance today?"
"Okay! If anyone else has this in mind, they can also come forward. "It can be seen that the emperor is in a very good mood.
Everyone knows that today's banquet is obviously a celebration banquet, but in fact, it is also to choose a concubine for the second prince and the crown prince.
The vocal music sounded slowly, and the woman took her right foot as the axis, please stretch her long sleeves, and her delicate body rotated with it, turning faster and faster. Suddenly, she rose from the ground, waving her jade hand, and several blue ribbons flew out lightly, and the girl flew to the ribbon in the air, with slender feet and fluttering clothes, like a Lingbo fairy. There was applause in the hall, and the sound of surprise was endless.
"Father, I'm a little depressed and go out for a walk. Su Yunian felt that there were many people, and he was very depressed, so he told Master Su.
"Then be careful and come back early. "Master Su is now full of attention to the emperor and the daughter in the hall, and he only cares about Su Yunian a little.
On the other side, a man followed Su Yu out of the banquet hall.
Walking on the road rendered by the night, Su Yunian looked up to admire the moonlight, and suddenly felt that there was someone behind him, and sighed. "Why did the prince also come out of the banquet hall?"
"I'm just here to see you, I'm afraid you're not safe. The prince smiled softly, and his eyes were doting. is really a stranger, like jade, and the son is unparalleled in the world.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said with a smile, how can it be unsafe to be in the palace?" Su Yunian endured his emotions and said lightly.
"Niannian, I...... I've liked you since I saw you at first sight when I was a child!" Nan Yuan couldn't wait to say what he had always wanted to say, feeling a little relieved, he was too trapped by this lovesickness.
When I was a child, Su Yunian tilted his head and looked at Nan Yuan suspiciously, Nan Yuan felt that the current Su Yunian was simply cute!
"Do you remember when you were a kid and you got lost with your family, and a little boy rescued you?" Nan Yuan fell into memory, and the corners of his mouth kept slightly hooked.
Su Yunian remembered. When I was a child, I went out with my family, but I got separated because of the crowd, and I squatted in the corner and cried all the time, and a little boy came to comfort her, and later she found her family, and the little boy left. Over the years, she has been looking for the whereabouts of the little boy, but she didn't expect it to be Nan Yuan, it turns out that Nan Yuan has long been deeply in love with her!
In her previous life, she was really blind, and she didn't want to be a man who spoiled her like this, but she liked a beast with a face.
"What does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince mean?"
"After the banquet is over, I will ask my father for my father's order to make a marriage contract with you, how about it?" Nan Yuan's eyes were tentative, asking for Su Yunian's consent.
"The prince decides. Su Yunian felt sweet in his heart, and turned around to go back to the banquet hall, since he couldn't hide, then let it be, and change her to protect him in this life!
"Yu Nian, do you agree or disagree!" Nan Yuan caught up with Su Yu Nian and asked anxiously.
Su Yunian saw that the prince was so nervous about her, she laughed out loud, looked at Nan Yuan's eyes with a straight look and said: "Since His Royal Highness the prince has a deep love for the courtiers, how can the courtiers refute the prince's face, then I will reluctantly agree." ”
After Nan Yuan got the answer, he hugged Su Yunian excitedly, and felt that it was not very good, so he immediately let go. The two returned to the banquet hall.
Just after the two of them left, a person came out from behind the tree next to him, his face was cold and cunning, and the light flashed in his eyes, called ambition!
In the hall.
Someone took the lead, and naturally other women were indispensable to show it, after all, they were still choosing concubines.
The emperor is also a dragon's heart, Tianyuan Kingdom is really talented, men can go into battle to kill the enemy, and daughters are good at singing and dancing.
"Your Majesty, this time the courtier brought back a rare object from the northwest, and I heard from the northwest that it was also a musical instrument. "After three rounds of wine, the talent is almost shown, and the king of war presents a treasure to the emperor.
"Oh, take it out and take a look!"
The king of war ordered his subordinates to carry it up, and it was a large object.
With 88 keys, the keys are smooth and the wooden body gives people a comfortable and atmospheric feeling. If you play a song, it will give people beautiful enjoyment. If you don't listen to the sound of the piano, just looking at the body of the piano is already deeply shocked, and it seems that you are intoxicated by it.
"What is this?" the emperor stood up and walked down, taking a closer look at the large object.
"Brother Huihuang, the Northwest people call it the piano. The War King bent slightly.
"Can anyone here play this instrument?" the emperor inspected for a week, but no one made a sound.
"Your Majesty, almost all of you here have shown their talents, only Miss Su of Sufu has not, so it is better to let Miss Su try it. A woman spoke up below.
Su Yunian looked at the woman and keenly captured the jealousy, resentment, and unwillingness that flashed in the woman's eyes. Su Yunian knew that this person was the concubine of the Zhang Mansion, and he had always liked the prince.
Su Yunian hooked the corners of her mouth slightly, since this instrument was brought up, she felt very familiar, and she always wanted to try to play it herself, Zhang Xin'er spoke, but she was exempt from her abruptness, and she should be thanked.
Just when Su Yunian was about to speak, the second prince took a step forward and said: "Father, this kind of musical instrument has been introduced to our country for the first time, and everyone has never touched it, how can Miss Su be?
"The second prince is too worried, I really want to try. The second prince was slapped in the face, his face turned purple, and he secretly said in his heart that Su Yu Nian didn't know what to do.
The prince looked at Su Yunian and was only kind to himself, but cold to the second prince, not to mention how happy.
"Wait, Miss Su is known as the first beauty in Tianyuan Kingdom, it is better to take off the veil and show her true face. Zhang Xin'er raised her head with a provocative expression, she had heard Su Jinrou say it before, and Su Yunian was disfigured. Although she has always felt that Su Jinrou is a concubine and is not worthy of being too close to her, it makes Su Yunian ugly, and she feels throbbing when she thinks about it......
Su Yunian slowly took off the veil, revealing an amazing posture, with a little powder, still beautiful and dazzling.
Su Jinrou's face was incredulous, her aunt clearly told her that Su Yunian had drunk poisonous bird's nest, and her face was covered with rashes, and Zhang Xin'er glanced at Su Jinrou viciously.
Su Yunian walked to the piano, sat down, staggered keys pregnant with a variety of different beautiful music, gently touched a group of Hyun, Hyun vibrated out an incredible music, the piano is so charming, it is simple and vivid, any sound you unexpected can be expressed on the clean keys, when the hands fall on the keys to play the music, it is a painting, Su Yunian is the person in the painting at this time, beautiful. Everyone was immersed in the beautiful sound of the piano, only Nan Yuan, immersed in the painting.
It's a miracle that everyone hasn't come back to their senses at the end of the song!
Nan Yuan took the lead in applauding, pulled everyone's consciousness back, and began to praise Su Yunian's temperament.
Nan Yuan was beautiful, thinking: It's useless for you to praise again, this is my person!
Walk into the hall and slowly bow down. "Father, the son has something to plead with the father!"
"What's the matter with the emperor?" At this time, the emperor's face was full of smiles, but it did not reduce his majesty.
"Erchen and Miss Su are in love, and I hope that my father will be fulfilled!"
Su Yunian also knelt beside Nan Yuan.
The emperor was slightly puzzled, his own son had never seen the daughter of the Su family, how could he have a deep love? But this son was born to him by his beloved, and he was so good, so the emperor almost responded to Nan Yuan's request.
Because the emperor and the queen are also in love, it does not restrict the freedom of love of their children. "Okay~ You have also reached the age of marriage, and it is rare to meet someone you like. The order went down, and the daughter of the Su family was named the lord of Chang'an, and made a marriage contract with the prince to get married on a certain day!"
Everyone below was whispering, and Master Su and the others were also shocked. Chang'an is always safe, and national security can be Chang'an. It seems that the emperor has high expectations for the crown prince!
"The courtiers (sons) have thanked the emperor (father)!"
The two looked at each other and smiled, their eyes full of love.
The second prince clenched the cup in his hand tightly and drank a sip of wine.
"Father, the son also has something to ask for!"
