856 Mid-Autumn Festival
The emperor thought of the accident that happened in the main hall just now, and if it was normal, he must have felt very sorry in his heart. But now, there was only a faint exhaustion left in his heart.
If it weren't for the fact that Yigui had to take the jewelry made by Ye Lanqing himself, maybe things wouldn't have developed like this.
He knew very well that with Ye Lanqing's temperament, he would never allow others to get involved in her hard work. Therefore, the jewelry worn by Yi Guiren just now suddenly fell apart, and it must not be an accident.
"I'm tired today, I'm not going anywhere, you should go back early." The emperor said in a light tone, "Today's incident is my mistake, and tomorrow I will reward you with a better set." ”
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Yi Guiren to react, he left with a group of palace maids and eunuchs.
Yi Guiren stomped her feet on the spot, she didn't understand, it was obviously the five-flavor jewelry that caused her to lose face, and the emperor didn't care at all.
Could it be that the emperor likes Shen Wangxin so much, and likes her so much that he has to protect her in every way even if he gets married?
The emperor returned to his bedchamber, but he couldn't fall asleep. At last, he suddenly got up from the bed and said to the personal eunuch who served him, "Go and bring me the clothes I wore when I left the palace, I want to go out of the palace to take a look." ”
The one who was called in was just a small eunuch who was keeping vigil, and although he served the emperor personally, he had no power in his hands.
Hearing the emperor's order, he immediately panicked: "Your Majesty, the night is already deep. If you have anything to do, you might as well talk about it tomorrow. Or, send a minion out to do things for His Majesty? ”
The emperor sat on the edge of the bed and said impatiently: "If you want to go, where is there so much nonsense?" ”
The little eunuch did not dare to disobey the emperor's order, so he had to take the set of clothes that the emperor often wore as instructed. At the same time, the great eunuchs around the emperor were notified.
After a while, the great eunuch rushed to the emperor's side, but he didn't dare to persuade him, and said anxiously: "If Your Majesty wants to go out, take the slave, Your Majesty will go alone, and the slave is really not at ease." ”
The emperor was silent for a while, knowing that they would never let him out of the palace alone, so he acquiesced to the great eunuch following him.
In the middle of the night, an inconspicuous carriage drove out through the side door of the palace.
At the same time, the Qin Palace's Mansion was still lively.
This is the first Mid-Autumn Festival that Shen Wangxin has spent in the capital, and it is also the first year of Shen Damiang and others in the capital.
On this day, although Zhou Yanchang and Jiang Xian both received invitations to the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet in the palace, both of them coincidentally pushed the banquet and stayed at home to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with their families.
Aunt Shen started to prepare what she was going to eat at night when she got up in the morning, and first began to make a kind of food called snowy skin mooncakes according to Shen Wangxin's description.
A few days before the Mid-Autumn Festival, this kind of mooncake has been sold at Wuwei Restaurant, because it looks like it is carved out of jade, and it tastes very good.
For a while, Wuwei Restaurant was also sold out, so Aunt Shen had to make it herself.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is naturally indispensable for wine and crab, as well as countless delicacies that come to mind, and Aunt Shen began to make them.
Shen Wangxin was afraid that Aunt Shen would be tired, so he asked the cooks of the Qin Palace's Mansion to help.
The entire Qin Wangfu was shrouded in the smell of food all day, and although everyone had eaten a lot, they still drooled in anticipation when they thought of the sumptuous dinner in the evening.
Finally, when it was time for dinner, everyone gathered together to eat.
Aunt Shen has always been kind-hearted, even the big and small servants of the palace, she prepared a few dishes, so that the people could gather by themselves.
The old housekeeper of the Qin Wangfu was so excited that he wiped his tears, and said to Shen Wangxin: "It's all thanks to the blessing of the county lord, since the princess got married, the prince and the princess went to Jiangzhou, and the whole palace has been nearly ten years, and it hasn't been so lively." ”
Shen Wangxin knew that the old butler was happy in his heart, and said with a smile: "It will only get better and better in the future, so don't serve here." The weather is also cold, so let's go down and eat some food and drink to warm up your stomach. ”
The old butler nodded and answered happily.
Shen Wangxin looked at the bright moon hanging in the sky and sighed, and went to a courtyard in the Qin Palace's mansion to find Ye Lanqing.
Ye Lanqing was infected with a cold a few days ago, and it was almost the Mid-Autumn Festival, seeing that she didn't want to stay in that house, Shen Wangxin took people to the palace to take care of her.
She stepped forward and probed Ye Lanqing's forehead with her hand, and found that she was no longer burning, so she said with a smile: "There are so many delicious foods and drinks outside, you don't go out yourself, do you want me to invite you?" ”
Ye Lanqing was reluctant to go out, but as soon as she was tempted by the snowy mooncakes brought by Shen Wangxin, her appetite followed.
The two joined hands in the dining room to join the banquet, and Shen Wangxin drank a lot of wine because he ate crabs.
Although Ye Lanqing's health was just right, no one stopped her from eating and drinking at the Mid-Autumn Festival, and there were a lot more things in her stomach, and her mood was much better.
Finally, when the family banquet was over, everyone was a little drunk, looking at the bright moon hanging high in the sky, the laughter just now gradually weakened.
Zhou Yanchang and Jia Shi looked at the moon and thought about their daughter, Princess Ningguo.
Aunt Shen and Li were looking at the moon and remembered their family members who were still in Xitou Village.
Shen Wangxin and Ye Lanqing looked at each other and smiled, and the look in their eyes was only understandable to the two of them.
