I have guests, drummers and shengs.

This is the second time in Gu Jin's life to set foot on the gate of the palace, the holy banquet, the courtiers are not slacking off, they would rather come early and wait for an afternoon, than dare to come late and fall into a disrespectful charge.

Gu Jiangyuan is a straightforward person, without the nine-song bowels of these civil officials, the Gu family and his party would come later than others.

Because of this, when Gu Jin followed his father to the table in the evening, he happened to see the last afterglow falling on the golden and jade bricks and glazed evenings of this imperial city, and the entire palace exuded ancient water in the twilight, which made people feel that the imperial palace had been prosperous for a hundred years.

Tonight's palace banquet is set in the Taiye Pool, a seat of people sitting near the water, men and women, can only vaguely see the figure on the opposite side, and the face is not clear.

Gu Jin sat with He and Gu Xiang on the top of the female dependents, not far from Mrs. Wei and Wei Yuchuan, and she felt a little relieved in her heart.

It's just that the officials and relatives who came today looked more or less sincerely afraid, just because the scene of today's palace banquet is really a bit like the banquet in the Qinyang Marquis Mansion a year ago, and they are also sitting near the water like this, every time they think of the scene when Zuo Rui falls into the water, everyone's faces are full of pity, but full of disgust.

However, in just two months, the Qinyang Marquis Mansion, which was famous and bell-mingling, no longer exists.

When the last trace of afterglow completely dissipated, the entire Taiye Pool fell into a dark silence, and the young lady of the family, who had followed her father and brother into the palace for a few afternoons, was already a little impatient at this time.

Immediately afterwards, a group of small inner supervisors rushed in, and lit the palace lantern by the Taiye Pool, and the palace lamp suddenly rose, and the scenery here was magnificent and bright.

If it is said that the Houhu Lake of the Marquis of Qinyang is elegant and charming, the night of Taiye Pool can be said to be the first night scene in the world.

A glorious glazed palace shines with brilliant light on the Taiye Pool, and there are countless inner eunuchs and palace maids standing on the side, which only makes people feel in a trance in a fairyland for a while.

As soon as the palace lights were on, he could vaguely see the appearance of the courtiers on the opposite side, Gu Jin looked around without a trace, and saw Lu Chengxiu and Lu Guitang sitting at the top, followed by Prime Minister Wei Cheng and Ning Guogong, and then Gu Jiangyuan and Gu Haomian and others.

Lu Guitang had already found Gu Jin in the crowd, and was glancing at him through the Taiye Pool, but Gu Jin quickly withdrew his gaze and didn't look at him again.

She had just seen a fire and a figure in the distance, presumably the saint had arrived.

The concept of time of the current saint is very well grasped, and after saying that Youzheng has a banquet, he really stepped into the Taiye Pool at this moment of Youzheng, and there are not only saints who come, but also the queen who accompanies him.

This was the first time Gu Jin saw the emperor and the queen, and he saw that the saint was wearing a bright yellow red dragon robe, without a crown on his head, and only wearing a gilt crown, which was extremely valuable when he looked at it from a distance.

The saint is over forty years old, not much different from Gu Jiangyuan's age, but he looks more than ten years older than Gu Jiangyuan and Wei Chengxiang. People say that the heart is wide and the body is fat, although the saint is more than Gu Jiangyuan, although the body is two points rich, but he may not have a wide heart, just look at it from a distance, you can see the silver thread on his forehead, which is even more dazzling under the background of the palace lamp. However, the saint's face is kind and steady, and his eyebrows and eyes are slightly similar to that of Brother Lu Chengxiu.

The queen walked behind the saint all the way, and after looking at the saint, she set her eyes on the queen.

I saw that his person was luxurious, full of pearls and jade, and his face was even more fragrant and national, although he was nearly forty years old, he could not see the traces of time, and he only made people feel that he was majestic and natural, and he was a person who deserved to sit firmly in the middle palace.

The corners of the queen's mouth condensed a smile, and after Gu Jin saw it, she turned her gaze to Lu Guitang again, and the mother and son laughed a little similarly.

The corners of the queen's mouth condensed a smile, and after Gu Jin saw it, she turned her gaze to Lu Guitang again, and the mother and son laughed a little similarly.

I only heard the chief of the inner prison beside the saint shouting: "The saint is here——! The phoenix drives to ——! ”

At that moment, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty and the family members on the opposite side stood up and saluted, and the four words were no longer enough to describe this grand scene.

The emperor and queen didn't say anything, but only took care of themselves and sat down, and the saint raised his hand with a smile: "All the ministers are exempt, today is just a family banquet, no need to be restrained." ”

Everyone got up according to the words, but they didn't dare to deviate from the norm in their behavior, although the saint said that it was a family banquet, but they all knew in their hearts that this was a state banquet.

Only to hear the sound of the silk and bamboo orchestra, there are palace mermaids rushing in to put the delicacies.

The dazzling array of dishes on the table is a sight to behold, a pomp that has not been seen for many years.

After the palace people retreated, there were musicians and dancers who boarded the Huatai in the center of the Taiye Pool, and the dance music was in an uproar, playing this prosperous long night.

Yo yo deer chirping, eating wild apples. I have guests, drummers and shengs. Blowing the sheng drum spring, bearing the basket is the will. People are kind to me, show me to walk.

Yo yo deer chirping, eating wild artemisia. I have a guest, Deyin Kong Zhao. If the people are not ashamed, the gentleman is effective. I have a purpose to drink, and the guest style Yan Yiao.

Yo yo deer chirping, eating wild Qin. I have guests, drums and pianos. The drums and drums are harmonious and harmonious. I have a purpose to drink, with the heart of Yanle guests.

……

Everyone seemed to be thoughtful and contented, but the dishes on the table were very little, and the courtiers and officials only used some refreshments, and they used them carefully, for fear that they would accidentally touch the chopsticks and play the bowl, which would make the saint unhappy.

The musicians and dancers were all from the court, and the saint had naturally heard and seen it many times, and now he was sipping his wine with great interest, and he couldn't see how happy he was.

At the moment, there was only Lu Guitang alone in the entire Taiye Pool, eating wine and using palace food, and his eyes were raised from time to time and landed in the center of the Taiye Pool, which seemed to be a little interested in the figure of this dancing girl.

Gu Jin pursed his mouth, knowing that he was not looking at the dancing girls, but his eyes fell on him through those dancing girls.

She didn't know whether to be happy or angry for a while, but she was happy that even though there was a beautiful woman singing and dancing in front of her, he could still communicate with her; The anger is above the palace banquet, and in front of everyone's eyes, he dares to flirt with his eyebrows!

After a while, the sound of the silk and bamboo orchestra faded, and the saint beckoned everyone to drink two rounds of wine, and then there was no sound again.

Everyone was bored waiting, or drank some wine to strengthen their courage, and then a team of three or five people began to whisper and chat.

Gu Jin closed his eyes and listened to the whispers of the people around him, talking about only two topics:

First, His Royal Highness King Xian is very suave.

Second, His Royal Highness King Shu is so handsome and handsome.
