Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Reception Banquet

With the emperor's opening of the banquet, everyone can move chopsticks.

The royal banquet, even if it is a relatively simple reception, has a prescribed process, and it is certainly not as simple as eating.

After the feast, musicians played music on the side.

Da Miao is not used to this, and as soon as the music sounds, he feels like he has returned to the heavenly palace of the eighty-sixth version of Journey to the West.

I feel like I'm going to turn into Zhu Bajie in the next second.

The music begins, followed by the dancers. They danced in the middle, and everyone sitting around them could see clearly.

However, Da Miao was not in the mood to look at it, and the food on the table was enough to attract her attention.

All kinds of vegetables, fried meat, fruits are plated, fragrant tonic soup, and this table is full of food.

Between Da Miao and Qinhua, there is also a wine jug, which is said to be fruit wine.

Da Miao, a person who has never bought alcohol before, also wanted to try it, and after this attempt, he actually found that he had a good amount of alcohol.

People watched the dance, or admired or commented. Those who wanted to appease the emperor took their wine glasses and went up to toast.

Princess Qinhua didn't have the leisure to care about that, she kept thinking about how to make the people next to her drink less.

I hope that Concubine Liang will find out that Princess Xinhua is drunk later, and don't blame her.

After the dance, the dancers need to rest, and the guests need to listen to the host of the banquet for a while.

Concubine Qi above spoke, "The palace has been away for many years, and I haven't seen you children for a long time, you have all grown up a lot, but I don't know how your etiquette knowledge is?" ”

As soon as this person spoke, the queen's originally bad face became even worse. Da Miao watched from below, worried that the queen would give her a mouth with her backhand.

Concubine Qi's angle couldn't see the queen's face, and she continued unconsciously: "Since the palace is back, you should share some of it with the emperor, and the palace will teach you etiquette in person." ”

Da Miao Xin said what was this doing? What are you going to do again?

The emperor was also a little embarrassed when he heard this, teaching the princes and princesses that it was the queen's obligation, in other words, this is something that the queen can do, isn't the concubine slapping the queen in the face when she says this?

However, the emperor believes that the concubine should be unintentional, a person with a pure nature like her, was too well protected by the emperor and him, and it is estimated that there are such twists and turns.

The emperor said: "Concubine, you have just returned to the palace, you should have a good rest, I guess don't think about that." ”

Concubine Qi nodded, "The emperor always thinks a lot about this palace." ”

The emperor smiled awkwardly, "This is as it should be." ”

"It's really not interesting to watch the dancers do the same dance all the time." Concubine Qi sighed, as if she was not satisfied with the entertainment project prepared by the empress.

She didn't know that the queen had been in charge of this reception banquet at all.

Concubine Qi turned her head to look at the person next to her, "Lin Lin, they all say that you are the most talented person in the city, why don't you write a poem for the palace, how about it?" ”

When Concubine Qi said this, Zhenhua, who was at the end of the table, stared at Lin Lin with a look in her eyes that was almost like a spark.

Da Miao also raised her head from the many delicacies, she wanted to see if the protagonist could still recite ancient poems, and she dared to report if she dared to read Da Miao. See how you can get through.

Lin Lin noticed Da Miao's gaze, stood up and saluted the concubine and the emperor and empress, and said slowly, "What's so unusual about the courtier's verses? I have heard that the eleventh princess's piano skills are a must, so it is better to let the eleventh princess play a song. ”

Da Miao didn't expect it, and this one!

Isn't the original body doing something? Isn't it okay to just study? The piano art is still a must!

Da Miaoxin said, this is over, she can't do it, she can only play cotton when she goes up.

Da Miao stood up, but did not go up, nor did he look at the musician who brought the piano up. There is a crepe sentence: "The piano is really an art of self-cultivation, not a skill for fun." Does Miss Lin think she is my bosom friend? ”

The emperor was angry when he heard this, what did this kid say? obviously looks down on Lin Lin.

However, before the emperor had time to say anything, the queen applauded directly, "Xinhua is worthy of being a princess taught by the palace herself." ”

Concubine Liang finally gave Da Miao a positive look, which means that although you didn't use your talent to make people kneel, your pretending skills are also a must.

Well, after this whole link, the most embarrassing ones are Concubine Qi and Lin Lin.

Concubine Qi asked Lin Lin to read the poem, but no one read it. Lin Lin asked Da Miao to play the piano, but they didn't play it, and they scolded her.

It's just that Lin Lin was scared and didn't dare to speak, but Concubine Qi dared to speak. She didn't talk about Lin Lin, but talked about Da Miao.

Concubine Qi: "Princess Xinhua is so arrogant, I'm afraid she won't be gregarious in the future." ”

The queen sneered, "Xinhua was originally a royal princess, how can she be as gregarious as an ordinary woman." ”

Well, finally Concubine Qi was also scolded.

Zhenhua, who was at the bottom, looked at Xinhua, thinking in her heart: I didn't expect that after many years, this Xinhua would be able to match her appetite.

In the second half of the banquet, the atmosphere became dull, because the protagonists of the banquet were all depressed, who would dare to laugh.

Da Miao ate almost the food in front of him, and because he drank a few more pots of wine, he couldn't hold back and wanted to go to the toilet, and said to Qinhua next to him, "You sit here, I'll go change my clothes." ”

Qinhua stood up and wanted to go with her.

In the West Palace, they don't come often, and they have to be taken by the palace maid to go to the toilet.

After the two of them were settled, they didn't plan to go back immediately, Qin Hua leaned on Da Miao and whispered: "Sister Xinhua, I'm afraid the harem will not be peaceful." ”

"How so?" As soon as Da Miao finished speaking, another person came in from the door.

This person is Zhenhua, she walked up to Da Miao and saluted decently, "I've seen my sister." After saying this, he looked at Qin Hua with another face, "Qin Hua, can you stop taking me in your eyes now?" ”

Qin Hua is so cowardly, he will confess the crime now.

But even if Qinhua confessed, Zhenhua still didn't have a good face for her.

On this side, Zhenhua no longer has a good impression in Da Miao's heart.

But Zhenhua is a person who doesn't care about other people's opinions.

She didn't care about Da Miao's face, and took a step closer and said, "Sister Xinhua, my sister can see that Lin Lin has bad intentions towards you." She thinks that your piano skills are not as good as her poetry, and she makes fun of you in her heart. ”

is so obvious to sow discord, Da Miao can still see it.

"So what?" Da Miao wanted to see what this person could say, she had a hunch, and this person's words would most likely refresh her three views.

"This Lin Lin, relying on herself to be able to recite a few broken poems, is loved by the concubine." Zhenhua said, "I think she is only the same size as us, so she dares to call herself a talented woman, which is simply arrogant." ”

Zhenhua suddenly laughed, and Damiao saw the conspiracy hidden under her smiling face.

Sure enough, "In case this Miss Lin eats something, she shouldn't eat it." Zhenhua smiled weirdly and ambiguously, "Isn't that jealous of talent?" ”
