No wonder she felt uncomfortable on her face, when she looked back, she caught Shen Zhongyi's pair of phoenix eyes coiling on her face, his eyes were always cold and threatening, and he was vaguely colder than usual, as if he owed him a thousand eight hundred times.

Liu Chenxing has never made mistakes on the bright side.

Since her eyes were met, and Shen Zhongyi was the Prince of Yipin, she felt that she couldn't afford to provoke it, and she didn't care that Shen Zhongyi's gaze seemed to be unhappy, and the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned, and she pulled out a smile at him.

Although Shen Zhongyi has the appearance of a big man with a dragon son and grandson, but after a few exchanges, he never lost his due politeness, and he should be quite well educated, in this case, even if he doesn't mean to pull the corners of his mouth, even if he responds to a smile, he will nod his head without a smile, and he will be regarded as accepting this gift.

Unexpectedly, I saw that Shen Zhongyi's face, which had always been unsmiling, was more cold, and the two eyes were sharper on her face, and her brows were directly furrowed.

……

Is this her smile too palatable......

She is not a person who likes hot faces and cold faces, the smile on the corner of Liu Chenxing's mouth just narrowed down and moved her eyes away.

It is estimated that there are a lot of eyebrows and eyes lawsuits today, and as soon as I moved away, I looked at Cui Yao.

Cui Yao actually came out too?

Liu Chenxing's eyes widened slightly, and then he thought that Cui Yao was a disciple of the Cui clan in Qinghe, and Cui Xiang was covered, that is, the official rank was not enough, and it should be easy to come to today's banquet.

They are also old friends, she first went back to her hometown, and then returned to Chang'an, she was busy practicing calligraphy at work all day, but Xue Yuan only met once, and Cui Yao had no time to contact him.

When the old friends met, Liu Chenxing smiled happily, revealing a mouthful of small white teeth.

Seeing Liu Chenxing smiling so happily, Cui Yao thought of what Cui Xiang said a few days ago, and grinned without any burden.

Under the bright sun of the Dragon Boat Festival, a young man in his early twenties and a fifteen-year-old girl looked at each other on the platform of Ziyun Tower, looking at each other and smiling simply and sincerely.

Shen Zhongyi looked at Liu Chenxing and directly lost his smile, his phoenix eyes sank, and then he saw Liu Chenxing smiling brightly, which was completely different from the smile just now.

In the next moment, the phoenix eyes followed Liu Chenxing's gaze, and it was one of the few dozen or so people in blue-green official robes, and it was easy to find the Cui family's disciples who were also smiling as if no one was around, this should be the successor pushed out by the Qinghe Cui family.

Looking at the smiles on the faces of the two, Shen Zhongyi faintly withdrew his gaze, but his eyes were dark.

In the end, there are hundreds of civil and military officials here, there are too many lawsuits, and it is not good to laugh all the time, after Liu Chenxing and Cui Yao laughed, they both looked away with a tacit understanding, and Liu Chenxing stood quietly with his eyes and nose.

After a while, the empress's honor guard all entered the palace, and the civil and military ministers, female dependents, and female officials who they took over on the left and right returned to the palace one after another, and took their seats in turn according to the seats just now.

The empress is getting older, and people are more and more fond of luxurious and lively scenes, looking at the ministers of civil and military affairs gathered under the dragon chair, she said with a smile: "There is a dragon boat race at three o'clock in the afternoon, and everyone Aiqing will drink it now." ”

The Empress's voice, she had heard, was slow and powerful.

However, the hall is too big, she is still sitting in the front position, in the first row of the fifth row on the right, but it is only a small voice to hear clearly, but there are more than 30 rows of seats under her until the entrance of the main hall, it is estimated that the empress can't hear anything, and when she encounters the bad look, she may not even be able to see the empress's dragon face clearly.

It is no wonder that the imperial court stipulates that the grand court meeting on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month may announce the edict, but it will not be done, and it will not be discussed, it is just a symbolic court meeting, and it is as empty as the main hall of the Xuanzheng Hall and the Ziyun Tower, what the empress says, or what the courtiers say, they can't hear each other, and they have to pass the microphone to communicate.

The thought flashed, the empress picked up the wine bottle, and the eunuch who was in charge of the ceremonial on the side shouted: "Toast—"

The voice came one after another, and one eunuch after another carried the voice from the dragon chair where the empress was sitting to the outside of the main hall.

Listening to the voice, Liu Chenxing smiled slightly, raised the wine glass with the crowd, and saw that everyone did not get up from the couch, she also continued to sit, holding the wine glass high in front of the empress, and then heard the eunuch shouting again and again, "Thank you, Your Majesty", so she chanted with the crowd, and then raised her neck and drank the wine.

It turns out that this is the case, one command and one action, Liu Chenxing is quite novel.

The courtesy of the monarch and the ministers came over, and the next thing was for the royal family and the ministers of the humerus to toast the empress alone.

King Wei was placed first on the left side of the empress, followed by the empress's nephews, King Jin and King Liang.

But the first to stand up and toast to the empress was the king of Jin, in the absence of the empress's own son, the toast was not Shen Zhongyi, the eldest son and grandson, but also by the empress's only daughter, the eldest princess, but the aunt and nephew did not care about the king of Jin to wish the empress good health, let the king of Jin preempt the first is not in a hurry, and wait for King Liang to stand up and finish toasting, Shen Zhongyi toasted to the empress, the eldest princess did not toast directly, and then Cui Xiang toasted to the empress on behalf of the ministers of civil and military affairs.

Of course, the empress will not drink a glass of toast from everyone, and a little dip her thin lips will be considered very face-saving.

After everyone has finished toasting, the ceremonial ceremony of today's banquet will be over, and the banquet will officially begin at this time.

It's not yet noon, it should be almost an hour after the luncheon, it's time for the dragon boat race, as if the dancing queen who came out of the Dunhuang murals returned to the main hall again, and one by one the palace maids who were as delicate as delicate flowers began to come up with delicious wine and food.

At this time, the alcohol content is probably not high, and the banquet has been drinking since the morning, Liu Chenxing has drunk a lot of wine greedily, and has eaten a lot of various melons and fruits, and his stomach is already slightly full, but now he is only serving the staple food, and some have to eat it while it is hot.

To eat a wine bowl is to eat with an open stomach.

This is the first time to participate in the palace banquet, and its specifications are quite high, of course, you have to feel the food standard of the palace banquet, so the palace dress on her body is slightly larger, and she doesn't let A-Niang collect a few injections for her behind her back, and today she just let go of her stomach to eat and drink.

Especially for a while, I don't know what is going on, but now while the atmosphere of the banquet is not warm, everyone has not started to push each other's glasses and exchange lamps, and it is not easy for her to toast or talk to anyone, so she can enjoy the wine and food.

Liu Chenxing picked up the chopstick, and took a sip of food and wine, while concentrating on appreciating the high-level dance of the dancing girl in the palace.
