The Queen Mother entertained several peasant women from Linqing County in the cabin, and during the reception, Xing'er played a song for everyone. The sense of strangeness and restraint between the guests has gradually been put aside, the Queen Mother is approachable, there is no shelf at all, and the atmosphere here is getting better and better.

"Empress Dowager Qi, the cloud mud yam cake you ordered us to specially steam is already ready, do you want to bring it to everyone to taste?" Liyue bowed and asked.

"Hurry up and bring it up, and bring a jar of fruit wine from the Western Regions attack, let's drink it together, and everyone will be happy."

After a while, Liyue led everyone to bring pastries, fresh fruits, dried fruits, preserved pulp, etc., one per person. Xiao Xing'er also has one in front of him. After the fruit and pastry were distributed, I saw two palace maids carefully carry up a one-person tall green translucent, like an altar and like a vase, through the bottle, the liquid in it was dangling, it was clear to see, there was a section of wood at the bottom of the **, Xing'er and everyone were curious, they had never seen such a thing.

The palace maids put the thing on the shelf that had been prepared, and then another line of palace maids came in with a tray, Xing'er looked at the tray, the things in the tray were fat on the top, and then thin in the middle, and there was a round base below, not too big, the shape of the palace maids was roughly the same, and it was not the same, some were tall and some were short, some were round and some were long and thin, but they were all big heads and thin bodies, and there were bases, some transparent, some translucent and some opaque.

Liyue put a tall and a short and fat one in front of the Queen Mother, but they were all yellow and transparent, and some took a short and fat pink opaque one to Xing'er, and the others, regardless of height, short, fat and thin, each of them were assigned one by one.

When all the women saw the exquisiteness of this royal thing, they carefully groped for it, and held it in their hands as if it were broken at the touch of a touch. Xing'er also picked up the one in front of her, looked left and right, put it in front of her eyes, she could see everything in the room through this thing, she thought it was very interesting, she happily looked at everyone, and finally her eyes fell on Zhou Liang's body, Zhou Liang signaled her not to be too presumptuous, Xing'er immediately put away her gaze, and put the thing on the table steadily.

"The Queen Mother, we are from a small family, and we are not blessed to see the precious utensils of the family these days, dare to ask you, what kind of treasure is this?" A woman asked.

"You guys, don't think this is some kind of treasure, these are all things that the people of the Western Regions use to drink."

"Drinking? ......" the people turned their heads to each other again.

"Taibai, the wine fairy of the previous dynasty, once went to the countries of the Western Regions with the mission, tasted the wine of the Western Regions, and once had a poem saying: Grape wine luminous glass...... This luminous cup is in the hands of you and the mourners! The Queen Mother introduced.

"There is a very small and very small country in the Western Regions called 'Moon' (meat sound)."

When the Queen Mother mentioned the name of the country, all the mothers-in-law and women present laughed. One of them, a pleasant-looking peasant woman, stood up.

"Queen Mother, we are lonely and unheard, the name of this country in the Western Regions is really ...... It's really, so funny, just like our own children's names, why should girls be called Zhen'er, Feng'er, and boys should be called strong, strong, how can the name of this country be called 'meat'? Listen, it looks like our girls have fallen into the pigsty. ”

After the mother-in-law finished speaking, everyone laughed, although the words were rough, but they were very reasonable, not only the queen mother and the maids laughed, but even the guards at the door couldn't help laughing, grinning, and even bent over with the little maids.

"Liyue, look at it, we still have to be with the people more, they are naturally happy, next time, the mourning family will not summon them, you, the mourning family, and Gui Chun, the three of us will change into the people's clothes, and sit in the field, and talk to these mothers-in-law, what a happy thing."

"It's okay for a slave to pretend to be a village woman with Liyue, how can you hide your bearing, in the end you are noble." Mama Gui Chun stepped forward and smiled and filled a cup of tea for the Queen Mother.

"That's what Pure Mama said! Queen Mother, how can you hide your noble temperament and coarse linen clothes? Aunt Liyue smiled and said, Liyue is usually the most popular with the Queen Mother, and as soon as she opened her mouth, the Queen Mother's attention was all drawn by her, "Queen Mother Lafayette, let's put it aside for the time being, we who don't know anything are still waiting for you to tell us about the anecdotes of the Moon (Flesh Sound) Country!" Look up, our eyes, take pity on us. ”

After Liyue finished speaking, everyone laughed again, and the Queen Mother opened her mouth again.

"Speaking of the matter of this moon country, or the mourning family in Guanlong when I listened to the guests who came and went at home, the 'month' word of this moon country, written as the moon of our moon, don't look at his country is small, the people are less than 10,000 people, and the land is only tens of thousands of hectares, but that small country should not be underestimated, because this small country has three treasures, all of which are sought by the surrounding countries!"

The Queen Mother's words paused, picked up the cup and sipped the tea, but she didn't say anything. Everyone waited and waited, and when they saw that the Queen Mother still didn't mean to speak, they couldn't help but turn their heads and ears.

"Queen Mother Lafayette, please tell us what good treasures there are in this Moon Country, let's wait. We farmers are straightforward and can't wait. A thinner peasant woman stood up eagerly and asked, but the Queen Mother still smiled and said nothing.

"If you want to know, you need to promise the mourning family." The Queen Mother pretended to be mysterious.

"You say." Everyone responded in unison.

"You must drink to your heart's content for a while, don't listen to those magistrates, who are vain-headed and mourners, and pretend to drink a few sips, which are not at all enjoyable." The Queen Mother smiled but also made a slight face.

"Hey......" The women saw the queen mother's face, and they were in an uproar and looked at each other.

The woman at the head stood up and held her teacup in her hand. "The Queen Mother can rest assured, the people of our Great Xia are loyal to the imperial court, and they have no second hearts, and our peasant family is even more selfless, as long as the imperial court does not raise taxes and does not pursue last year's affairs, we will definitely surrender to Great Xia."

As she spoke, the peasant woman who led the crowd knelt down, and everyone shouted in unison.

"As long as the imperial court does not raise taxes and does not pursue last year's affairs, we are willing to swear with more than 100 net worth of lives to be loyal to the imperial court forever and loyal to Great Xia! Forever for the people of Great Xia! Long live my emperor, long live! I wish the Queen Mother a thousand years of life! ”

At this moment, it was finally revealed the true purpose of the Queen Mother's banquet for peasant women, Linqing County is an important town along the canal, because of last year's drought, in order to ensure the navigation of the river, there was no canal water for irrigation, many crops were not harvested, Linqing County Order is also an incompetent, lazy government, almost provoked the people's uprising, or Emperor Yude personally issued three holy decrees, even sent three Qin cha, and finally the emperor personally sent a second product Gu Ming Qin Cha to calm down, the local farmers who took the lead, the court did not reduce the serious crime, just appeased, this year the Empress Dowager patrolled along the canal, Specially arranged the itinerary of Lin Qing County, stayed for three days, in addition to summoning local officials, the most important thing was to change the way to show the appeasement of the heavenly family, and then invited the peasant woman on the boat.

The Queen Mother finally waited for what she wanted, and immediately spoke in a pleasant manner, smiling, and speaking slowly.

"The mourning family invites everyone to get on the boat, it is the meaning of friendship, the meaning of rejoicing with the people, just thinking about it and wanting to joke with everyone, deliberately faceless, you see that you don't have to admit it, what kind of oath do you make?! The court, the emperor, and the mourning family, naturally know that the people of our Linqing County are good, if it is not for the chewing grain, it will not be born last year, this is also the incompetence of the magistrate, the emperor has told the mourning family, is planning, to Linqing County for a good county master, Linqing has been a place of virtue since ancient times, will not be disloyal to the court, after the dispersion of today, you also scattered the meaning of the emperor and the mourning family, the people live and work in peace and contentment, which is the blessing of the emperor and the blessing of the mourning family. Flatten down! Rejoice, you're rusty on your knees! Get up! The Queen Mother said, giving Liyue a look, and Liyue immediately led a group of maids to help.

"Empress Dowager Xie is aware of the people's feelings and loves the people. Queen Mother Chitose Chitose Chitose! The crowd didn't insist anymore, but stood up one after another and sat down.

"Hurry up, calm down, sit down, let's continue to sit in the pigsty and talk about the Moon Kingdom!" As soon as the Queen Mother spoke, the hall was full of laughter, and the atmosphere returned to the same as before.

"If you want to say that the treasure of this moon country, there are three things, the first two are related to the war, the first is a purebred sweat and blood BMW, the second is the steel on the weapon, and the third is a thing that makes the surrounding countries drunk and dream......" The Queen Mother pointed to the translucent jar, "It is the wine in this jar!" With these three things, the surrounding countries will not dare to bully the Yue Country no matter how much they fight. It is said that the people there in the moon country like grape wine the most, this cup is also they with the wine tribute, the taste of the wine is sour, I am afraid that everyone will not be used to drinking, so I use this fruit wine to entertain everyone, this wine is sweeter, it is made of grapes mixed with several kinds of fresh fruits, and the fragrance of fruits, it is very delicious. Rite the month, quickly, pour it for the guests. ”

Liyue took a few maids, holding a white transparent utensil in her hand, pulled out the wooden cork at the bottom of the jar, and a stream of pulpy red liquid gushed out.

The vessel had a large opening, one end resembling a spout, but it had no handle. The red liquid slammed into this transparent vessel was a sight to behold. After half a pillar of incense, the palace maids poured the wine for everyone.

"Come, mourning family and drink this cup with you." The Queen Mother pulled out to toast.

"I wish the Queen Mother a long and blessed life~" After speaking, everyone drank it together.

In Xing'er's small cup, there is only a little bit of fruit wine at the bottom of the cup, Xing'er looked at everyone, and took a sip gently, the pulp red liquid flowed into the mouth, it was sour at first, and there was indeed a taste of fruit in the back, swallow it, from the throat to the stomach suddenly warm, the mouth was indeed slightly sweet, it was a wonderful experience, Xing'er had never been, and he had only drunk before the New Year's Festival, and the big brother secretly dipped a small point with the tip of the chopsticks for her to taste, she still remembered the first time she tasted it, and she jumped up when she was spicy, Then she fell asleep all afternoon, and the second brother said that she was drunk to death.

Today's fruit wine is different, and there is no feeling of drunkenness, and there is a feeling of wanting to drink it again, because of the sweetness in his mouth, Xing'er secretly glanced at the glass in front of him, and there was not much left of the small glass of wine just now...... I felt a little sorry in my heart.

During the banquet, the queen mother and everyone talked about their daily routines, saying that she had also done farm work with her family when she was in the boudoir, and said how the emperor attaches importance to the people today, and hoped that these peasant women would bring back the royal heart and tell the people that Yunyun......

Xing'er listened to it in a daze, Xing'er may think that she didn't feel drunk, but in fact, there are still some, when Xing'er listened, she looked at everyone in the banquet, some spoke, some hurried to eat, and some quietly listened to the Queen Mother's speech, and ...... One, who doesn't eat, but doesn't drink either, doesn't have a trace of expression on his face, the wine glass from the previous year is still full, and the fruit hasn't been touched.

Xing'er felt very strange, so she kept looking at that person, that person was simply sitting respectfully, hanging his head, and glancing at the direction of the Queen Mother from time to time, but it looked different from other mothers-in-law and mothers-in-law, suddenly, the person leaned over and pulled down the corner of her clothes, revealing her snow-white neck, Xing'er recognized her at once, she was the person who Xing'er secretly looked at and felt strange when she got on the boat, Xing'er's drunkenness woke up a little, and she also remembered the task given to her by Liyue.

Xing'er leaned back on the Queen Mother's leg and hit the Queen Mother's leg, the Queen Mother felt her legs warm up and looked down at Xing'er.

"You little baby, are you already drunk?" The Queen Mother still had a kind face and opened her mouth with a smile.

"Queen Mother, is Xing'er drunk? Why does that mother-in-law's face not move like a mask? She doesn't drink or eat good food either......"

After Xing'er finished speaking in a milky voice, everyone looked in the direction of Xing'er's finger.
