Chapter 83: Spring Feast
In the evening, Qi Ye came to Yinghua Palace for dinner, and the voice of the eunuch from afar shouting "The emperor has arrived" came into Yu Miaorui's ears, making her whole spirit for a while.
Yin Lingyuan took everyone to take over, Yu Miaorui knelt in the distance, quietly looked up, and saw the emperor's heroic figure, handsome appearance, and majestic momentum, only to feel that she had a heart.
Qi Ye picked up Yin Lingyuan and asked with a smile: "What delicious food have you prepared today?" ”
"The emperor will know when he sees it." Yin Lingyuan welcomed people into the inner room, including Lu Baosheng to accompany him.
Seeing this, Yu Miaorui also wanted to follow up, but was stopped by Chu Hui's eyes: "Girl, slow down." ”
Yu Miaorui turned her head and frowned at her, and Chu Hui said unhurriedly: "Miss Baosheng said, girl, you haven't finished learning the rules yet, so you can't come to serve." ”
"Why?" Yu Miaorui asked.
"I'm afraid that there is something wrong and it will make the emperor unhappy." Hatsuki said.
Chu Hui insisted on blocking it, Yu Miaorui couldn't go in again, she looked at the hall unwillingly, she could vaguely catch a glimpse of the bright yellow figure, and told herself in her heart that she couldn't be in a hurry, and there would be a chance in the future.
Entering March, the weather finally gradually warmed, Yin Anlu took the seeds given by Yin Lingyuan, and set off for Zhili again, he wanted to build his vegetable planting base as soon as possible, this name was still taken by Yin Lingyuan, Yin Anlu felt very appropriate.
The whole north has had a bleak New Year, from the end of the month to now, the palace has not held a decent banquet, now everything, in time for the spring and March, the palace will hold a spring banquet, which can be regarded as making up for the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet.
The banquet was scheduled for the third day of the first month of March, and Yu Miaorui wore the uniform of a palace maid, but she was dressed in an ingenious way, which was the jewelry that Yu later sent in.
She was dressed up delicately and pretty, and she rushed to greet Yin Lingyuan before the banquet.
Yin Lingyuan looked her up and down playfully: "My sister is dressed up today, which is very chic. ”
Yu Miaorui smiled lightly: "How can I compare to my cousin's brilliance, this hosta is smooth and smooth, and it is even more white and snowy for my cousin." ”
Many discerning people can see Yu Miaorui's plan, and Hanlu couldn't help asking: "I don't know if Miss Biao's palace rules have been learned?" ”
"I've finished learning", Yu Miaorui said, "In order to serve the master earlier, I have been pestering Baosheng to explain the rules for me in the past few days, but I am so tired that Baosheng is too tired to have no skills." ”
Hanlu looked at Bao Sheng, who nodded slightly with a big dark circle under his eyes.
Since the first time she wanted to go to the emperor and was stopped, Yu Miaorui was ruthless and wanted to learn the rules in the shortest possible time, so she did not hesitate to pester Baosheng day and night, and Baosheng didn't sleep for several nights.
Yin Lingyuan nodded: "Today's spring banquet, you accompany me, and Baosheng goes back to have a good rest." ”
"Thank you, master." Yu Miaorui responded softly, and walked behind Yin Lingyuan in small steps, no matter how respectful and proper she was, she couldn't hide her excited heart that was about to fly out of her throat.
When Yin Lingyuan arrived, there were already many people in the hall, Le An's eyes were sharp, and when he saw her, he trotted over: "Little aunt, you are here." ”
Yu Miaorui's pupils shrank and she unconsciously lowered her head.
"The county lord of Le'an is good." Yin Lingyuan greeted with a smile.
"Oh, what are we polite about", Le An took her hand affectionately, and couldn't wait to ask: "I heard my brother say, what kind of charity bazaar did you hold in your cyclamen building a while ago?" It's lively. ”
"It's to raise money for disaster relief, and the county lord knows about it?" Yin Lingyuan asked.
"Yes, yes", Le An nodded excitedly, and then was a little unwilling, "It's a pity that I didn't make it, my mother didn't ask me to go, saying that it was a place where men go, hey, it would be nice if I could get a sale party in Xianming Xiaozhu, and then I could contribute my wood carving." ”
She said this, which reminded Yin Lingyuan of the fairy dream residence made by Zhongyi Wangfu before, and the Linghua hairpin of Liu Lingsha made countless sons rush to it, if you get an auction of Dijing celebrities, auction the hairpin ring jewelry of celebrities, and the merry boys smile for the Pomeranian, they must be even more willing to spend a lot of money.
It's just that last time with the emperor's help, they were able to get those adults' calligraphy and paintings, this famous thing in the imperial capital, she couldn't get it, it's a pity.
Yin Lingyuan didn't know that her thoughts were already being thought about, the mothers of the bustards in Dijing were inspired by the charity bazaar, and since then, this situation of openly bidding for the girls' personal things has gradually become a new trick to attract wealth in the Qinlou Chu Pavilion, and it is very popular.
"What do you want?" Seeing that she didn't speak for a long time, Le An stared at her curiously and asked.
"I'm thinking that although the county lord wants to join in the fun, the so-called charity sale can only be used when there is an emergency, and there is no such excitement in normal times." Yin Lingyuan said with a smile, she had no doubt that if she dared to make money like this, Qi Ye would never spare her.
"Hey", Le An sighed, "Then next time there is any excitement, you must send someone to inform me first." ”
The two of them walked to Yin Lingyuan's seat, Han Lu stepped forward to help her pull the chair, Yu Miaorui couldn't help but look around secretly, the emperor hasn't come yet, the whole hall is prosperous and magnificent, there are all kinds of fruits and wines on the table, and even the tray of fruits is carved with complex and beautiful patterns, it's so beautiful!
She was distracted for a while, and she didn't notice that the person in front of her had stopped, so she directly hit the county lord of Le'an.
"Oops", Le An was hit coldly, although they walked very slowly, this impact really had no impact, but the royal banquet, how could anyone be so reckless?
Le An turned back angrily, looking at the person who bumped into him, if it was an ordinary palace maid, she should have knelt down and pleaded guilty, but this one just buried her head low and took half a step back.
"Where are you a palace maid? Why is there no rules like this? Le An was furious, "Beware of turning around and telling my little uncle to break your legs." ”
Even if Le'an is innocent, she is also a lady of heaven who has grown up pampered since she was a child, and she has her own domineering side.
"Don't be angry, this is my new palace maid, and I don't know the rules." Yin Lingyuan played a round field, and in front of the public, it would not be good if Le'an made trouble.
"Don't kneel down and plead guilty to the county lord." Han Lu also rushed over and said to Yu Miaorui in a low and stern voice.
The latter reluctantly knelt down and whispered: "The county lord forgives me, I was careless just now......"
The county lord of Le'an was about to raise his foot and kick it up, but was dragged by Yin Lingyuan: "The county lord is angry." ”
Han Lu hurriedly reprimanded: "What are you, me, you want to call yourself a slave in front of the county lord." ”
"Slave, slave accidentally bumped into the county master...... Conviction of sin. Yu Miaorui said as if she had endured humiliation.
"Such a minion is also worthy of being an errand by your side?" Le An pointed at Yu Miaorui, widened his eyes and asked Yin Lingyuan, "Little aunt, is there anyone in this palace who is angry with you?" Could it be that she still has something behind the scenes? ”
Le An said, noticing that the jewelry on Yu Miaorui's head was much more gorgeous and beautiful than ordinary palace maids, and was even more sure of his guess: "Seeing her dressed up so swaggeringly, she must not be at ease." ”
As he spoke, he stepped forward to see what this bold palace maid looked like.
"County Lord ......" Yin Lingyuan was not in a hurry to stop it, Le An had already seen Yu Miaorui's face first, and recognized it at a glance.
"You, aren't you the cousin?" , Le An looked at Yu Miaorui, and then at Yin Lingyuan, "What is Yu?" ”
Yin Lingyuan was helpless, pulled Le An and explained to her in a low voice: "Yu Miaorui, it's my cousin." ”
"How can she ......" Le An unconsciously raised his voice.
"Shhh ”
"No, why did she enter the palace?" Le'an didn't give up, and asked in a low voice.
"The emperor has arrived! The concubine has arrived! At this moment, the eunuch's sharp and high voice sounded, the emperor and the concubine arrived, and the banquet officially began.
Yin Lingyuan secretly patted the back of Le An's hand and motioned for her to go back to her seat first.
Le An glanced at Yu Miaorui fiercely and left.
The banquet is still the same content, singing and dancing, toasting, singing merits and praises, Yin Lingyuan has attended so many times, there is no novelty.
No matter how urgent Yu Miaorui was, she had to stand obediently behind Yin Lingyuan, raising her eyes from time to time to glance at the upper dragon chair. It's a pity that there are many people attending the banquet, and the ladies of the palace are even green, fat, red and thin, so how can the emperor pay special attention to her little maidservant?
Han Lu really couldn't stand it, leaned over slightly to block Yu Miaorui's sight, and lowered his voice to warn unceremoniously: "Be honest, do you want to die?" ”
Yu Miaorui glanced at her with a green look, and then withdrew her gaze.
When the whole spring banquet was happy, the guests and hosts were happy, and when it was about to end, Concubine Yi invited Le'an and the eldest princess of Ningchang to sit in her palace: "There is some good tea prepared in the palace, I don't know if the eldest princess is willing to appreciate her face." ”
"Concubine Yi was invited, she shouldn't have refused, but she hasn't met her mother when she enters the palace, and I hope that Niangniang will forgive me", how could the eldest princess of Ningchang not know what Concubine Yi's idea was, and politely refused at the moment.
"In this case, this palace will not force it." Concubine Yi was not angry, and left with a smile.
"Mother, I want to go to my aunt's palace to sit down," Le An whispered to her mother.
The little aunt in Le'an's mouth can only be one person, and Concubine Yi has already left, and the eldest princess of Ningchang glanced at her little daughter helplessly and dotingly: "Go, I'll send my grandmother to call you when I leave the palace." ”
"Thank you, Mother." Le An happily thanked her mother, her eyes swept to Yu Miaorui, and the corners of her lips curled proudly.
