Chapter 670: Banquet (1)
"Princess, a slice of sour almonds in your mouth." Liu Siyi's pregnancy was not easy, and she had severe morning sickness, so she basically couldn't eat anything, so she could only eat some fruits and snacks, so she often had candied fruit in her pocket.
The sweet and sour taste temporarily washed away the nausea that came up, and at today's banquet, there were many people and mixed tastes, so they were mixed together, despite the suppression of the ability, Liu Siyi still felt a sense of nausea coming up one after another.
There is no comfort and kindness that is about to be a mother, but giving birth to an unwarranted disgust, an unblessed child, even if it is to be born, it is with a calculated expectation, and after all, it becomes a means for people to climb up.
Rong Ruo's tea didn't drink it, and a thought came to her heart, it turned out that Liu Siyi was pregnant?
No wonder Duanwang looks even more proud today!
When thinking like this, the emperor of the main hall sat next to a door and walked out of a few figures, accompanied by a sharp shout in his throat: "The emperor has arrived--Concubine Yi has arrived-"
Rong Ruo knelt down and kowtowed with everyone, shouting long live, spitting on this evil old society in his heart, and kowtowing at every turn.
The emperor is not particularly mediocre and lustful, the harem concubines are really the least Rong Ruo has ever seen, except for the dead Concubine Lin Hui, now Concubine Jin has a phoenix seal in her palm, Concubine Yi is in charge of the six palaces, and there are only a few nobles and people who are always there, the queen does not say, the four concubines are vacant three.
However, Rong Ruo found that there were two new faces in the concubines, both of whom were ten **** years old, probably when she was not in the capital, Concubine Jin filled the harem for the emperor.
If you want to say that the women in the world are not the harem as a model, not only can they not be jealous, but they also have to be the master of the world's demeanor, and personally select women with both ability and political integrity to be sent to the emperor's bed, so as not to make people say indecent.
"Beidi Baimao has seen the Jokhang Emperor, long live His Majesty the Emperor Jin'an." After the courtiers of Zhao worshipped, as one of the objects of being picked up, the prince of Beidi stood up first.
Beidi is located in the northeast, in addition to the summer warmth throughout the year, the temperature is very low throughout the year, and in winter it is ice and snow, freezing three feet, so the Beidi people are usually tall and big, the skeleton is magnificent, and they are much taller than the people of the other three countries.
The eldest prince's white cole was not obvious when he was sitting, and when he stood up like this, it was like an iron tower in the center of the hall, and a large black shadow was forcefully pressed.
He spoke in a very heavy voice, heavy like a stone dragging the ground, not rough, but his facial features were profound, especially his eyebrows were thick, and his eyes were deep and sharp, and he was not good at first glance.
Beidi was defeated and sued for peace this time, so his posture was not high, but when the eldest prince Bai Mao spoke, he was not so groveling, and he still had Beidi's unyielding arrogance.
Rong Ruo listened to Mu Beichen describe the people of Beidi, if they are compared to animals, they are bears, the most bulky bears, but they have rough skin and thick meat, commonly known as - durable!
Of course, the last two words are summarized by Rong Ruo by describing himself.
"The eldest prince lives in Dazhao, can he still adapt?" Although everyone knows that what to talk about this time, the emperor must also care about it on the surface.
Bai Mao retracted a pair of piercing and fierce eyes, and laughed: "The Jokhang scenery is beautiful, the people are more beautiful, the water and soil raise people, it is really not our barren land that can be raised, the land of the prince's path, is thriving, and it is His Majesty the Jokhang Emperor who has managed well, which makes the place prosperous and the people healthy." ”
In this kind of praise, there is a faint covetousness, but the emperor is still happy when he hears it, because the Beidi people do not have it, and only in Dazhao can they see such a scene.
"Hahaha-okay, then you can stay for a few more days, so that you can deeply experience my Jokhang and see the lives of the people."
Bai Mao retreated, followed by the land phase of Dongling, less than fifty years, probably by the sea, the skin was a little black by the sea breeze, not showing the weakness of the literati, but with a bit of military style, he hooked the corners of his eyes inside, revealing a little shrewdness, but subtle, laughing, always a little out of sight.
Lu Xiang just paid a visit, and quickly retreated, just like the purpose of their visit to Jokhang this time, it seemed that he was a little soy sauce, but he came to wait and see, and he didn't specify what to do, so it was the most relaxed.
Rong Ruo touched the teacup with his palm, and saw that Dongling Lu Xiang was a low-key person, but it was this kind of person who was the worst, for some reason, this Dongling Prime Minister gave her an unfathomable feeling, and it seemed that the other party was very difficult to deal with.
In comparison, the prince of Beidi is arrogant and exposed, and he doesn't know how to restrain himself, and the king of Xiliangqing is as elegant as an immortal who doesn't know the depths, and this Lu Xiang is definitely the most treacherous and treacherous.
Then it should be Xiliang's turn, but without waiting for King Qing to get up, Princess Fushan seized the opportunity, she walked out generously, wearing a red dress and shining brightly, and the entire hall was suddenly dazzling.
The eyebrows reflect the golden light, and the air is sprinkled with nine radiances!
Princess Fushan is indeed a rare beautiful woman, she is lively and bright, like the glow of the nine days, reflected in everyone's eyes, it is the best gorgeous sunset.
"Meet His Majesty the Jokhang Emperor." It is not a woman's curtsy that is good for good deeds, but a man who clenches his fists and arches his hands, his eyebrows are raised, his chin is raised, and the confident look on his face is rarely imitated.
This is the temperament that can only be cultivated by the imperial power of the Heavenly Family, high and arrogant, looking down on the world, she smiled, "Guifei Niangniang, my father asked me to say hello to you." ”
Only then did everyone in the palace remember, oh - isn't Concubine Jin from Xiliang, this Princess Fushan is her mother's family.
Concubine Jin's phoenix eyes moved slightly, a small arc, and then she was gentle and dignified, with a slight chin, with a friendly smile: "Is the imperial brother in good health?" ”
Princess Fushan and Concubine Jin are not close, before Concubine Jin left Xiliang and kissed Dazhao, she had not yet become the righteous daughter of the emperor of the dynasty, so naturally she had no chance to meet Concubine Jin, so after arriving in Zhao, although Emperor Xiliang asked for her life, she did not go to ask Concubine Jin in advance.
In the eyes of Princess Fushan, Concubine Jin has not become a queen for so many years, if it weren't for the high mountain of Xiliang, I am afraid that she would only be an inconsequential little concubine in the Jokhang harem until now, so she felt a little contemptuous in her heart.
But now that she saw it, Concubine Jin had a noble demeanor, and her phoenix eyes glanced at her lightly, with a sense of majesty, which seemed to be different from what she imagined.
Princess Fushan secretly glanced at Concubine Jin's face, and saw that she was not displeased, but showed closeness, and couldn't help but be proud in her heart, that's right, she is now the favorite princess of Emperor Xiliang, even if those biological ones are not as good as her. If Concubine Jin is a smart person, she should know how to treat herself, as long as she does not lose the backer of Xiliang, her position in the harem of Jokhang can sit more steadily.
"Father and emperor are healthy, don't worry about the mother." Princess Fushan doesn't look behind her, and she doesn't care about the inquiry in the eyes of others, or whether she is right or not to give King Qing a son like this.
Concubine Jin's phoenix eyes were half-closed, and the face of the young man who was always faintly concerned about herself floated in her mind, and she waved away, looking at the woman in front of her, as open as fire, and she didn't know why the imperial brother valued her so much.
On the other hand, the Qing King sitting on the side, she had seen it earlier, and she was not good, her breath was like a quiet orchid, unusual, but her body was too weak.
The emperor came, the banquet officially began, and the dishes were exquisite and beautiful, but they had been left for a long time and the taste was not good.
Rong Ruo tasted a few mouthfuls with interest, and Liu Siyi next to her felt that her stomach was also a little uncomfortable.
Mainly every time he serves a dish, Rong Ruogang uses chopsticks to put it in his mouth, and he can always receive the suppressed retching sound on time, others can't hear it, and the one Rong Ruo listens to is real, and he can't ignore it.
It's so unappetizing!
Well, forgive her for being a pregnant woman, Amina.
After three rounds of wine, the prince of Beidi first toasted the emperor and all the Dazhao officials, which began the cultural exchange of the wine table of Chinese civilization.
Women lean against each other and talk about men the most-
"Meimei, you see that this Qing Wang is about to give me a second spring." Lin Yuanxiu knocked on the melon seeds, and his speech was always direct.
Xiao Hongmei took a piece of dessert and plugged her mouth directly, saving her from saying something embarrassing.
On the Zhan family's side, Mrs. Zhan was asking Zhan Ruge, "Where did you go just now, why did you come back so late?" ”
Zhan Ruge avoided the important and light, "I lost something, and I went back to find it." ”
Mrs. Zhan didn't ask, she was also afraid that there would be many nobles in the palace, Zhan Ruge was afraid of life since she was a child, and she saw that there was little in the world, so it was okay.
It's just that the two little girls behind Zhan Ruge glanced at each other, and then immediately lowered their heads, they found that their young lady had more and more secrets, but they didn't dare to tell Madame.
There is also the mother and daughter of the Shen family, Shen Xing hugged He's arm, "Mother is still thinking about my sister?" Sister Jiren Tianxiang, she will definitely be fine. ”
The Shen family's guards came to report that Shen Yue disappeared halfway and has not been heard from so far.
Shen Hou sent a group of people to look for it, and it took dozens of days to go back and forth, but now no one sent any news.
In the end, it is the daughter who was conceived in October, and she can be sent to her hometown to be raised in Zhuangzi, so that she is alive, and Mrs. Shen feels that she is also benevolent and righteous, but she disappeared in such an unknown way, and Mrs. Shen is uneasy in her heart.
Above the main hall, He Shi didn't say anything, shook his head, and said, "Mother is fine." ”
Shen Xing leaned over and rubbed He's arm with his face, well-behaved and caring, which made He feel a little relieved from the bottom of his heart, although he was not his own, he could be raised under his knees since he was a child, and he was like flesh and blood.
No matter how much you think about it, the hall seems to be lively on the surface, with wine glasses constantly colliding, and the wine spilling, rolling up a smell of aged wine.
The banquet also had all kinds of singing and dancing, but at this time, after a dance, suddenly a touch of bright red moved out of the seat, and walked to the center of the main hall, when everyone's eyes were all cast over, he smiled confidently and said: "Your Majesty the Zhao Emperor, I heard that the women of your country have both ability and political integrity, and outstanding qu arts, I don't know if there is a competition, let us see and understand." ”
"Oh? How to compare? The Emperor rested his arm on the dragon chair, holding the glass in his hand, and the wine swayed as he leaned forward.
