Chapter 80: The Qianqing Palace Banquet

The next ceremony was cumbersome and complicated, she felt uncomfortable, and she didn't like such an occasion, but she had to be patient, and when all the ceremonies were held, it was already dinner time, and the emperor set up a banquet in the Qianqing Palace to invite the ministers, and the whole world celebrated.

As soon as she entered the Qianqing Palace, according to the rules, she bowed three times and bowed to the queen's mother, and Queen Zhou sat beside the emperor with a proud and arrogant face.

After she finished saluting, Concubine Yuan came forward to salute her again: "See Concubine Liniang!" "The etiquette is thorough, but there is no respect.

She was not annoyed, and hurriedly returned the salute: "Concubine Yuan, we live together as concubines, how can there be a reason for Niangniang to salute me." ”

Concubine Yuan's face was already displeased, and her tone was also a little dissatisfied: "Concubine Liniang, although we live together as concubines, but Niangniang has more titles than concubines, and concubines dare not go beyond them." ”

She wanted to say something more, but Mama Jinyun squeezed her hand quietly, she understood, smiled, and said no more. The rules in this palace are indeed like this, although she doesn't agree with it, but it exists after all.

After a long day, she was already tired, so she went back to her seat and sat down.

Most of the banquets toasted to the emperor and queen in waves, saying what kind of deep affection between the couple, what kind of piano and string sounded, what kind of compliments made in heaven, and drank the wine of the ministers one by one with a smile, but his eyes kept falling on her through the crowd.

Hearing those words, she was not without discomfort in her heart, and she couldn't help but feel a burst of annoyance in her heart, and she didn't even notice his gaze.

In the eyes of the world, Queen Zhou is his only wife, no matter how well he treats her, she is just a concubine, a concubine!

He is now the king of a country, he will have his harem in the future, when the beauties are three thousand, who does you remember......

But isn't it all your own choice? Who can blame it?

She suddenly laughed at herself, laughing profusely, but laughing with tears.

At this time, some people she didn't know came to pay respects to her, and she couldn't listen to those disguised compliments and flattery, but this wine was not shirked, and she raised her head and drank it refreshingly, one cup after another......

Xin's gaze became deeper and deeper, and her brows furrowed slightly, she was indeed beautiful today, and the heavy makeup on her face that she had never seen on weekdays added a bit of atmosphere and dignity, as well as a bit of seductiveness...... Charming!

She doesn't drink alcohol on weekdays, but today she doesn't refuse to come, so he doesn't know her thoughts.

"Concubine Li!" The emperor suddenly spoke at this time, and the ministers didn't know what he meant, so they all retreated to both sides.

And she was immersed in her own thoughts and drinking wine, when she suddenly heard his voice, she was surprised, she never knew that he had been paying attention to herself in such a lively time.

However, she quickly calmed down, left her seat, and knelt down in front of him: "Your Majesty ......"

Credible had already stood up to support her, he didn't like her to kneel, he didn't allow her to kneel, even if he was already the emperor, even if there was already a distinction between him and her!

"Come on, give me a seat!"

As soon as the emperor spoke, a eunuch immediately brought a stool, but he didn't know where to put it.

Xin pulled her with a smile on his face and walked to his seat, where the clever eunuch had already understood and set the mahogany chair in place.

"This ......," she said, looking at the empty seat, full of embarrassment. The seat was to the left of the Emperor's seat, and the Queen was sitting on the right hand side of the Emperor's seat!

Since ancient times, only the queen can sit side by side with the emperor, she is just a concubine, how dare she in front of everyone!

"Your Majesty, the concubines don't dare!" Saying that she was going to kneel again, Xin frowned and immediately held her up.

"Before I ascended the throne, Concubine Li's mother disregarded her own safety and made great contributions to controlling Wei Ke and the two, I ascended the throne so smoothly, Concubine Li's natural contribution is indispensable, everyone Aiqing said, Concubine Li's mother deserves this seat!"

The emperor raised his eyebrows and looked down at the ministers, his face full of the domineering and majesty of a king.

Although the rumors that she deliberately killed Yuan's children have not been completely calmed down, but when the new emperor ascended the throne, how dare the ministers arouse the emperor's interest at this time, but there was a moment of silence, and the ministers echoed and said: "Concubine Liniang is smart and virtuous, and she can naturally afford it!" ”

Although the queen was shocked and indignant in her heart, the emperor and the ministers were there, and she didn't dare to show it on her face after all, she smiled awkwardly, and echoed the words of the king indiscriminately.

The emperor smiled with satisfaction, and sat down beside him by her shoulder, his eyes full of tenderness.

But Yuan couldn't hide his emotions, his teeth were creaking, and his eyes were already about to erupt with fire!

Although the letter has been holding her hand, she is still sitting on pins and needles, only to feel a burst of eyes, as if to eat herself alive, she naturally does not know the taste, the letter has been carefully serving her vegetables, but she only felt embarrassed, but did not dare to excuse herself in front of everyone, ate some randomly, and after a meal, but did not eat a few bites.

I wanted to find an excuse to leave as soon as possible, but after all, I felt that it was inappropriate, so I had to sit down patiently.

Since she sat next to the emperor, there were more people toasting her, and there was a little more respect in her eyes, she was about to drink, but she was taken away by the emperor: "Aiqing, Concubine Li's mother is weak and can't stand the strength of this wine, how about I drink it on her behalf?" ”

The minister who toasted naturally had no objection, this toast was originally made for the emperor to see, and the emperor was willing to drink with his face, but he couldn't ask for it.

Then, ignoring the annoyance in her eyes, Shin raised his head and drank it all!

She secretly pinched his hand, and she already had some annoyance in her heart: You ignored me a few days ago, and treated me like this in front of people today, what is this!

After all, these innermost thoughts dare not be shown on their faces.

Next, whoever toasted her, the emperor personally drank it on her behalf, completely ignoring the jealousy in the eyes of the queen and the Yuan family.

He just wants everyone to know that no matter what, there is only one one he loves the most, and that is his Xin'er, his concubine Tian!

When the new emperor ascended the throne, all the ministers wanted to leave an impression on the emperor, and they all hoped that their careers would be smooth and prosperous in the future.

And the emperor's actions were so obvious, everyone had already understood the emperor's thoughts, so they gradually snubbed the Yuan family who was drinking on the side. And those who toasted the queen also raised their glasses to her.

Even if the queen can endure it again, she can't hold it on her face at the moment, and she can't hide her emotions gradually, don't turn her face, she can't see her expression clearly.

The anger and jealousy in Yuan's heart were rampant, but he couldn't find an outlet to vent, his eyes were already red, and he just sat in the corner and drank stuffy wine.

At the banquet of the enthronement celebration, the emperor made such a move, and the rumors that Concubine Liniang was no longer favored because of the miscarriage of Concubine Yuan had long been self-defeating, and the ministers also secretly muttered whether Yuan's miscarriage had another reason.

And all this is exactly what the emperor wants!
