Yin Wei knows how to pretend to play a loving mother there, and Lin Qiantan's acting skills will not be bad. It's just to give each other a face in front of people, who won't be able to play.

It's just that when you touch each other's skin, it still makes people feel very uncomfortable. Yin Wei's skin was slightly cold, and Lin Qiantan liked to be held in Yin Wei's arms when she was still close to Yin Wei in the past.

Now she only felt like she was touching snakeskin.

Soon.

It's time to go.

The weather outside is excellent, and you can even see the shape of the blue sky and white clouds in the sky. Such weather is indeed suitable for moon viewing.

Palace feast. It's not the first time Lin Qiantan has participated, so there's nothing to be nervous about. But at this time, she just felt that something was wrong in her heart, but she couldn't say what it was.

The streets are full of tourists.

Along the way, there were also many dignitaries and dignitaries who also went to the palace for banquets. I was able to meet a lot of acquaintances.

The Gu family, the Chen family, the Yan Guogong Wang family, and several families that have a good relationship with the Lin family.

Lin Yangde is old enough to ride a horse. He walked in front, followed by the daughters of the Lin family.

In a huge carriage here, there were only a few people in the third room. Except for a few words to each other at the beginning, in the end, it was simply silent.

Yin Wei occasionally peeled some orange flesh for Lin Bixiang with her own hands, and the tiger poison did not eat the seeds.

The pulp handed by Zhang Cheng's daughter-in-law on the side, but she put it aside and never touched a mouthful.

Zhang Cheng's daughter-in-law secretly scolded the "little slut", she didn't eat it, didn't she smear something on her hands in vain?

Lin Qiantan pondered in her heart. Her instincts were fairly accurate. At the Mid-Autumn Festival Palace Banquet on August 15, she always felt that there would be some program.

I just don't know if such a show has something to do with her.

When she entered the palace, it was always safer than Yinping Pavilion, which was her own place. Zhang Cheng's daughter-in-law looked sneaky, and Lin Qiantan couldn't smell a piece of fragrant orange flesh, whether there was any other smell that was masked.

Yin Wei and Lin Bixiang talked, occasionally raised her head to glance at the other two "daughters" in the car, the smile on her face was loving, as if Lin Qiantan and Lin Shuchen were really her own children.

When they got off at the palace gate, Lin Qiantan was not with Yin Wei and them. Concubine Xiao sent someone to bring Lin Qiantan over, saying that she was going to talk to her first.

Lin Qiantan then went over according to the order.

Yin Wei glanced at Lin Qiantan's back from a distance, and then turned around and talked to Lin Bixiang with a smile: "Later, you go to your aunt's place and talk to your aunt to relieve your boredom." At the end of the palace banquet, my mother sent someone to call you, and you came to meet again. ”

Lin Bixiang answered, and followed the eunuch sent by Yin Qiang.

Yin Qiang is now four months pregnant, her belly is bulging, and Emperor Tianlong does not let her participate in the banquet, saying that he told her to stay, so as not to catch a cold from the wind outside.

People inside and outside the palace couldn't help but wonder if she had fallen out of favor......

Even Yin Qiang herself suspected that Emperor Tianlong was jealous of the Yin family, so it was indeed not impossible to say that there was such a possibility.

But......

Yin Wei thought about what she was going to do later, thinking that if her daughter was not around, she could concentrate better. It can't be done - Lin Qiantan doesn't eat the oranges peeled by Zhang Cheng's daughter-in-law, so there are other big gifts to give.

Lin Bixiang has become more and more impetuous in the past year.

Although she was able to enter the palace, Yin Wei still didn't worry about asking her daughter to follow her. It's better to throw it away and give it to my sister.

So for a while, there was only Lin Shuchen left by her side.

On the other hand, Lin Yangde walked into the palace alone with his three sons.

Shen Ningpi smiled and brought a group of daughters to greet him: "What are the third brothers and sisters still doing in a daze?" Let's get inside! ”

Yin Wei ignored her, and only warned Lin Shuchen one last time: "Later, you give me an honest reason and behave well in front of Gongzi Qi......"

Lin Shuchen is as her name suggests, Yin Wei has never taken this concubine who was firmly pinched in her hands in her eyes. The son of the Qi family had tuberculosis on his body, and he couldn't marry a wife after running for three years, so the two elders discussed and discussed in private, and decided that he would marry Lin Shuchen.

Lin Shuchen reluctantly pinched his finger joints in his sleeve pocket......

Yin Wei didn't take Lin Shuchen seriously, so when she spoke, she was a little less shy about her.

Lin Shuchen pricked up his ears to listen, and heard Yin Wei and her personal grandmother say something like "Baiyun Heavenly Master".

The Baiyun Heavenly Master of Baiyun Temple can be regarded as a person who is very famous in the capital. He calculates the heavens, and he is very accurate. In the past two years, he has become famous, and the five princes plan to introduce him to Emperor Tianlong.

His name, even Lin Shuchen has heard of it.

As an emperor, Emperor Tianlong's main concern is nothing more than those, and Baiyun Heavenly Master also knows that he has earned ...... this trip It's hard-earned money to put your head on your belt.

It is said that the heavenly machine cannot be leaked, and the Baiyun Heavenly Master is also afraid that he will leak too many heavenly secrets and encounter God's liquidation. can't stand that greedy heart for money.

Only then did I think that if I had one more vote, I would roll up and leave, away from right and wrong!

Therefore, when the people who entered the palace outside the palace gate to attend the banquet arrived one after another, at a hidden palace gate, Baiyun Heavenly Master was also invited in unconsciously......

This was Emperor Tianlong who invited him to come and calculate divination for the Great Shang Dynasty.

The questions that Emperor Tianlong might ask, Baiyun Heavenly Master knew in his heart. He knew that it was a big crime to deceive the king, but he didn't dare to tell the Great Shang that he was going to die in front of Emperor Tianlong.

It is also a coincidence that Bai Yuntian entered through the west gate of the palace and went to the emperor's bedroom, so he happened to run into a few female guests......

The second princess glanced at it from a distance, as if she recognized the white clouds that were hiding under the shadow of the trees and walked over in a panic. Her eyes sparkled slightly, as if she had something in her head.

This is the palace banquet of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

A Taoist priest from outside the palace appeared here at this time......

The lady next to her, who was talking to the second princess, saw the second princess distracted, and shook her specially and asked her who she was looking at.

The second princess smiled and said, "I just saw our Royal Highness walking over there."

A group of female relatives laughed at the love of the second prince and his wife.

The second princess looked at the situation and said, "Elders and sisters, let's go over to the venue first, I have to go to the concubine here."

Everyone knew in their hearts that the "concubine" mentioned by the second princess would only be surnamed Xiao. She's here to meet her real grandmother......

About Concubine Xiao and Emperor Tianlong, these women who eat melons and watch dramas know more or less.

One is the princess of the Xia Dynasty, and the other is the emperor of the Great Shang Dynasty......

Back then, Concubine Xiao made a plan to bring the second prince to her side to raise her, and the second prince and Concubine Xiao did have a little bit of true feelings. The second princess, as the concubine of the second prince, also knows who is close and who is close to each other between Concubine Xiao and the imperial concubine.

Emperor Tianlong's treatment of this concubine of the former emperor is indeed Sima Zhao's heart.

There were rumors that the first emperor was seriously ill when he was dying, and Concubine Xiao once sued Emperor Tianlong in front of the first emperor, which made the first emperor regret the idea of making Emperor Tianlong the crown prince......

Emperor Tianlong's cup bow snake shadow is very suspicious of forcing the palace to usurp the throne.

These things are also palace secrets, and they just talk about them in private......

The Concubine Xiao in their mouths, at this time, had just met Lin Qiantan who had spoken to her in her own bedroom.

Lin Qiantan has been here many times, and she is also familiar with the way, and she doesn't need others to guide her. In the palace of the concubine, where is the door and where is the wall, she knows it.

There are only two places that I don't go to often. One is the inner room of Concubine Xiao's forbidden place. The other place is a small garden at the back gate of Concubine Xiao's bedroom.

The scenery of the small garden is very good, Lin Qiantan once wanted to take a look, but was politely stopped by the grandmother beside Concubine Xiao......

*

Lin Qiantan was sitting in front of Concubine Xiao, but there were two other things in her heart, one was Chu Jiang and the other was Yin Wei. When Concubine Xiao talked to her, she couldn't help but feel a little absent-minded.

The moon on August 15 seemed to be impatient to rise into the sky, and Lin Qiantan had just sat down with Concubine Xiao for a while, and the color of the sky began to darken. In autumn and winter, the days are short and the nights are long, and a round of silver in the sky seems to be floating faintly, Lin Qiantan glanced at the sky, and thought of the two dogs who were thousands of miles away at this time.

The moon that everyone sees, no matter where it is in the Great Shang Dynasty, should be the same, right?!

The letter sent back by Ergouzi on August 11 said that the moon there was also about to get chubby.

The northern land has been in turmoil recently, and at the beginning of the year, Emperor Tianlong ordered a slaughter under a moment of anger, like a fire, a spark that can start a prairie fire.

The soldiers and horses that were originally used to garrison and stay behind have now become used to quell the rebellion.

The imperial court blocked the news, but according to Wang Yuanzhao, in the past half a month, there have been more people gathering to make trouble than a month or two ago. In the past few days, he has been running around and running, and he has not stopped much.

The group of people that Wang Yuanzhao incorporated into his hands also had a place to use. It's just that after all, the sword doesn't have eyes, and Wang Yuanzhao is not the same as three heads and six arms, Wang Yuanzhao himself said that he was accidentally injured by a dark arrow.

In her ears, it was Concubine Xiao's smiling voice: "...... Let's try this, this is a fresh mountain crab from the northern prefecture, and it tastes excellent. ”

It is clear that there is still war outside, but most of the people in the capital here receive some good news but not bad news......

When Lin Qiantan heard this, she smiled, and was as kind as flowing: "This is rare, if it weren't for the concubine's love for me, I don't know if there would be any chance to eat it."

Concubine Xiao smiled.

The crab meat is crisp and sweet, with the clear fragrance of the mountain and river water, Lin Qiantan is dual-minded, sitting with Concubine Xiao and talking for a while.

*

As he was talking, the second princess came.

The second princess naturally came over to say hello to Concubine Xiao. When Concubine Xiao saw her, she rarely had some good looks to the other party.

Lin Qiantan knew that the second prince had been acting more heavily in the court recently, and he also needed the support of Concubine Xiao more. The second princess moved around frequently, also for her husband.

When the two of them spoke, Lin Qiantan consciously silenced. Unconsciously, I thought of Wang Yuanzhao again.

Wang Yuanzhao also mentioned his family in the letter. Naturally, he was not referring to the Wang family in the Yanguo Mansion, but to his biological mother Xia Sanniang and Wang Dagou.

Wang Yuanzhao seemed to be gossiping, and babbled on letters and told Lin Qiantan a lot of family things.

Lin Qiantan knew that he had a very good relationship with his mother, and this was the first time he had been separated from his mother since he was born, and he did not stay with his mother and brother when the family should have been reunited.

Lin Qiantan then thought about whether she would let someone go to the Wang family to take care of her after the banquet in the palace.

But in what name?

She thought about this for a while, but Concubine Xiao called her back to her senses, and Concubine Xiao said, "Have you heard of this Heavenly Master?" She and the second princess had already spoken to the White Cloud Heavenly Master.

Lin Qiantan seemed to have just reacted, and the second princess had just ...... It seems to mention that he saw the Baiyun Heavenly Master on the palace road......

Concubine Xiao then jokingly said: "Baiyun Heavenly Master is very accurate in fortune-telling, and the divination marriage is also very powerful, later, the palace will call him and calculate a hexagram for you alone......"

Lin Qiantan and Chu Jiang are fiancés, and Concubine Xiao is also well-intentioned.

Lin Qiantan couldn't refuse, so she responded to it all, thinking that anyway, when the time was almost up, whether she and Concubine Xiao could meet or not was not necessarily ......

Besides, it doesn't matter if it counts or not, she and Chu Jiang, since they have become relatives, they will always stay together for the rest of their lives.

When the moon began to show a very obvious outline in the sky, it was time for Lin Qiantan to leave Concubine Xiao with the second princess.

Lin Qiantan and the second princess were not familiar with each other, so they always maintained a distance and walked out of Concubine Xiao's bedroom without intimacy.

On the palace road, many lamps have been lit.

Lin Qiantan and the second princess took a while to walk to the venue. The venue there is already very lively.

Lin Qiantan saw that because it was a palace banquet at night, the layout of the furnishings was also very different from the previous Flower Dynasty Festival. The ceremonial officials who arranged these also seemed to have the intention of currying favor with the emperor, and in many ways, it took a lot of effort.

Among them, the stage that is said to be used to perform singing and dancing talents is a highlight that is hard to ignore.

The circular platform is set in the center of the square, and the outward projection is to set up guest seats according to the direction of the auspicious gossip of the upper and lower Kun. The stage in the middle is decorated with a circle of osmanthus flowers, a piece of floral fragrance, and the meaning of the Mid-Autumn Festival is inside.

Lin Qiantan also became a little looking forward to the palace banquet for a while.

Lin Qiantan naturally separated from the second princess. The second princess went to find her own acquaintance. Lin Qiantan is the team that returned to the Lin family.

*

On the seat, the situation of the Lin family is not much different from when Lin Qiantan left. Shen Ning and Yin Wei sat separately as much as possible on all occasions, as they were, and they were distinct.

It's just that due to the huge disparity in the number of people in the two rooms, Yin Wei is too deserted here.

Even Yin Wei herself has to admit that when she competes for face, she can see the benefits of having more concubines.

Division of labor and cooperation, many children and grandchildren.

Lin Qiantan sat down between them, but she couldn't see that there was an undercurrent between them. She doesn't care about herself.

She was not slow to react. When he just sat down, Lin Shuchen stuffed something soft in his hand. She didn't move, she just didn't think there was such a thing. When no one around the table paid attention to her, she glanced down from the corner of her eye, and then turned back to observe Lin Shuchen as if she were nothing.

Lin Qiantan didn't know what kind of sugar gourd Lin Shuchen was selling. However, she knew that Lin Shuchen would not be without trouble.

Lin Qiantan also found an opportunity after a while, quickly opened it and glanced at the small note, the handwriting on the paper was crooked, and at a glance, she knew that it was written by Lin Shuchen in a hurry.

Lin Shuchen told Lin Qiantan to be careful, saying that it was possible for Yin Wei to use Baiyun Heavenly Master to do some calculations.

Lin Qiantan frowned, she could be regarded as receiving Lin Shuchen's kindness. Lin Shuchen has never been profitable, and I am afraid that it is also because he considered that she still needed to match her in the middle of the matter of the Zhongyi County Mansion last time, so he did not hesitate to help.

As for how Lin Shuchen knew that Yin Wei might have such a plan, Lin Qiantan didn't know.

Yin Wei has been quiet for a while recently, and she hasn't made any moves, which is what Lin Qiantan is worried about.

Lin Qiantan is not afraid of Yin Wei's move, what she is afraid of is that she will be like that and do nothing, but Lin Qiantan has a feeling that she doesn't know where the knife above her head will fall from.

What Lin Shuchen said, when she was still with Concubine Xiao, Lin Qiantan already had some guesses when she heard the second princess talk about Baiyun Heavenly Master.

Although she still didn't know what Yin Wei's plans were, she couldn't just sit still.

Just as he was thinking about it, a eunuch came over there and sang that the emperor would come over in a while.

Everyone in the banquet then straightened their looks, waiting for the emperor to bring a few important ladies in the palace to come over, there was no one on the main seat, and it was not a matter how to look at it.

Lin Qiantan was thinking about what Yin Wei wanted to do......

Speaking of which, she still relied on what Concubine Xiao said in the dormitory, so that she suddenly had a bold guess.

Concubine Xiao repeatedly said that Baiyun Heavenly Master's fortune-telling was very accurate, and asked him to calculate the marriage between her and Chu Jiang......

Lin Qiantan couldn't help but speculate a little, others didn't know about the situation outside the capital, could she still not know?

If someone said something in front of the emperor at this time, would Emperor Tianlong, who cared about Jiangshan Sheji, really believe the words of the Taoist priest?

Lin Qiantan thinks that her guess is definitely not unreasonable.

This Baiyun Heavenly Master went to Lin Yangde's study, and when Lin Yangde looked at her, there was something wrong.

Forget it - she laughed, since she wasn't sure about the other party's plans, then she simply took the initiative and took a salary from the bottom of the kettle.

Attack is the best defense.

Lin Qiantan was thinking about this, Yin Wei happened to turn around, and glanced at her, the color of calculation in her eyes, although it flickered quickly, but it still made Lin Qiantan react quickly to catch it.

Lin Qiantan also smiled at Yin Wei, and then called a few girls behind her: "You go with me to the clean room to serve......

Yin Wei only took her urgency to urinate.

And Lin Qiantan did not go out for too long, and after a short time, she still came back with someone.

All around, laughter, laughter, all kinds of wine and delicacies, are also sung.

In the midst of this excitement, Emperor Tianlong brought his favorite concubine Lotus to the scene.

Although the forty-year-old emperor has a slightly old face, he is still strong and heroic, and with a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl like flowers and bones, there is no disobedience at all. It's just that Lin Qiantan doesn't like those two, and she can't help but say that they are indeed talented and beautiful.

Emperor Tianlong walked through the crowd of people who knelt down and bowed down with his arrival, and sat down with a few concubines. Concubine Lian attended in full costume, which undoubtedly attracted the most attention from everyone.

Concubine Lian smiled skillfully, her appearance was gorgeous, her eyes as charming as a fox exuded bewitchment, and her figure was as delicate as a water snake. It's no wonder that Emperor Tianlong would like such a demon girl who is indeed quite capitalized.

The demon girl is consciously or unconsciously touching herself with one hand in a posture of guarding her abdomen.

Lin Qiantan lowered her eyes, like many people on the field who also had their own thoughts, thoughtful.

Concubine Lian, who is also pregnant and has an unstable placenta, can be allowed to sit on the table and blow the wind, but the imperial concubine, who is already pregnant in April, is ordered to stay in the palace at this time and "raise the fetus" with peace of mind.

Many people looked at Yin Ren with a vague gaze, as if expecting to see some emotion on his face.

However, Yin Ren didn't reveal much displeasure and other emotions from beginning to end, but he didn't see that the emperor was unabashedly expressing his joy to the new concubine.

The sight in all directions, the yin tenacity can be ignored, but there is only one person, he can keenly catch it, and smile back with yin and evil.

Lin Qiantan was laughed at by this, and she saw that the hair was straight behind her.

Even if she had seen a lot of Yin Ren's smile, no matter how many times she saw it, Lin Qiantan still couldn't adapt to it.

That smile, Senluo's white bones, is like a poisonous snake spitting letters, which makes people feel chilled.

To be born with such a terrifying appearance is really a great talent.

Lin Qiantan hurriedly lowered her head and didn't look at it again, her heart was beating suddenly, and she was very uncomfortable.

Therefore, she naturally ignored the gaze projected from the other position.

Chu Jiang had already "looked at each other" with Lin Qiantan, and was smiling, but the cold Lin Qiantan lowered his head, he was also slightly stunned, and said it was a pity.

He's been busy with business lately, and he hasn't seen his cousin in a while. Just as he was thinking of finding an opportunity to ask his cousin to walk in the garden of the palace later, a person next to him happened to raise his wine glass and came in, interrupting his thoughts.

I knew it earlier, so I called someone to go over and make an appointment with my cousin in advance.

Chu Jiang was a little regretful, and then, looking at the people who came to toast with him, he smiled back and greeted him.
