Inside the Palace of the Moon Shadow.

Su Yang lay on the top of the collapse and flipped through the records of state banquets and expenses recorded by previous dynasties, raised her hand and rubbed her swollen and painful temples, she had seen all these things today, and still couldn't figure out anything.

It stands to reason that the Ministry of Rites basically has a similar response plan for these things, but since Mo Lieguo is here to sue for peace, then the pomp and circumstance of Yingguo's greeting cannot be the same as before, and it has to be a little different to show sincerity.

But the most terrible thing is that Su Yang has only seen a state banquet, but she has never handled it herself, she doesn't understand the process of a state banquet at all, and how to match Mo Lieguo's taste.

Thinking of this, her head ached again.

"Niangniang, the emperor sent someone, saying that he told Niangniang to hurry up and eat, and the state banquet will be done tomorrow. ”

Just when Su Yang had no clue after thinking about it, Ruo'er walked in with a spring breeze on her face, still holding a bowl of chicken soup in her hand.

"The emperor sent someone to ask the mother if she had a meal, this is a great honor!"

Ruo'er said, put the bowl of chicken soup on the table, and leaned over to pinch Su Yang's shoulder.

"It's a good honor, but the palace is really lacking, and these banquet matters have made the palace dizzy. ”

Looking at Su Yang's bitter gourd face, Ruo'er didn't say much, and gently pinched her shoulders.

After a while, Mingyu walked in, looked at Su Yang's ugly face, and couldn't help but speak: "If Niangniang needs it, she can apply to His Majesty to go to the Ministry of Rites, and discuss with the people of the Ministry of Rites in person. ”

Mingyu's words woke up Su Yang, she sat in the palace this afternoon and didn't come to any conclusions, if someone could discuss with her, maybe it would be different.

So, with such an idea, she decided to fill her stomach first, and as for the rest, she would talk about it when she was full.

"Pass the meal!"

After Su Yang had eaten, it didn't take long for Murong Jue to come with someone, his expression was a little tired, Su Yang saw this, walked behind him and pinched his shoulder for him, and said softly: "Your Majesty, is this kind of strength comfortable?"

"It's straightforward. ”

Murong Jue thinks that she is either a traitor or a thief if she has nothing to do, and she is the kind who wants to have almost no contact with him except for meals and sleeping, and now it is unusual, there must be fraud.

"Ahem, the emperor is really wise and martial, and he can guess that the concubines have something to ask for. ”

"You can say it, there's no need to hide it. ”

Seeing that Murong Jue didn't intend to be polite to her, Su Yang told Murong Jue about his request.

The concubine thought that the state banquet was a big matter, and the concubine was alone in the harem, so it was inevitable that the pattern would be small, and it was still necessary to discuss with the adults of the Ministry of Rites before this state banquet could be held. ”

"You mean, want to get out of the palace?

When Murong Jue heard this, his brows furrowed, the last time she held a flower-viewing banquet, she also asked to leave the palace once, and she wants to leave the palace again today, it is really incomprehensible, could it be that she has any intentions?

"If you want the people from the Ministry of Rites to discuss with you how to hold a state banquet, just call them in, and you don't have to go out of the palace on a special trip. ”

After Murong decided to say this, Su Yang's heart was cold, she wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to go out for a while, but who knew that she was rejected, it was really ......

"Concubine, Emperor Xie!"

Although she was unhappy, Su Yang couldn't show it, because if Murong Jue could see it, her hard work these days would be in vain, so she could only make a happy appearance.

"By the way, you forgot to eat again today?"

"Ah...... Not really, it's just that I've been working hard for the state banquet and eating some food, but I still thank the emperor for his care and specially ordered someone to remind the concubines. ”

Su Yang said, a smiling face flushed slightly, looking at her shy appearance, Murong Jue frowned, and said, "Well, in the future, you remember to have a good meal, I am staying here with you today, for the state banquet, you don't know, you can come and ask me,"

Su Yang didn't expect Murong Jue to say this, she couldn't help but be slightly stunned, she thought that Murong Jue was only here to deal with the Queen Mother, who would have thought that he was actually here to share his worries, it was really abnormal.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, the concubine will go to bathe first, and then discuss with the emperor later. ”

Saying that, Su Yang asked Ruo'er to help her go out to bathe and change her clothes, and then returned to the main hall after dressing up.

On this night, because the two needed to discuss the state banquet together, the two sat very close, which was also the closest to Murong Du since Su Yang entered the palace.

"Your Majesty, what should be done with the accounts of this place?"

"The amount required for the state banquet must be strictly in accordance with the previous dynasty, Mo Lieguo's envoys are good at chess, you need to pay more attention when you operate, invite two chess players to come and play against them. ”

Murong Jue couldn't help but feel a little headache when he saw that Su Yang was always taking detours, so he simply named the most important point of this state banquet, how to please the envoys and prevent her from taking detours and wasting her efforts.

Hearing him say this, Su Yang remembered that since the envoy likes to play chess, the best way to please him is to set up a game!

It's just that it's not enough to set up a chess game, but also to have a famous player in charge, and she really knows that there are two famous players in Beijing, but they are both hidden people, and they don't often show their true faces.

"Your Majesty, the concubines know that there are two famous men in Beijing, but ordinary people go to look for them, and most of them can't see their deities, so why don't you let the concubines go and see if you can invite the two of them out of the mountain?"

"There are a lot of officials who can play chess in the DPRK, so you have to leave the palace?"

Regarding Su Yang's idea of wanting to leave the palace, Murong Jue had a lot of complaints, and asked angrily.

"Your Majesty, think about it, since we want to please the envoys, the best way is to set up a chess game, but it is not enough to have a chess game, we also need to make the envoy feel the fun of the game, the average chess player is only afraid that he will not look down on him, and he still needs those rare ones to make him interested, right?"

Su Yang was able to speak well with a small mouth, and he found a legitimate excuse for himself, and Murong would never be able to refuse.

"Three days, I will only give you three days, if you can't find it, you will stop there. ”

Although he had no reason to refuse Su Yang, he also understood that the holy hand was difficult to invite, and giving her a set time was just to let her retreat from the difficulty, and by the way, he would not let her run away.

"Yes, the concubine will obey the emperor's will!"

With Murong Jue's permission, Su Yang was instantly full of energy, and after spending the night as usual, he changed into civilian clothes and took Ruo'er out of the palace to find the Holy Hand.

The two came all the way to the outskirts of Beijing, and Su Yang heard that one of them lived in seclusion here, but it was difficult for ordinary people to find the house where he lived, saying that there was something strange about Dunjia.

"Mother, you walk slowly, watch your step!"

There was a light rain just last night, and the ground in the suburbs was a little muddy and difficult to walk, Ruo'er reminded Su Yang loudly.
