Chapter 389: Imperial Merchant

When they came in, they ignored her, and only allowed her to stand alone, and some people secretly laughed at her, thinking that she was so stupid, that they had come to this kind of banquet.

But now, the queen took the initiative to talk to her, but these ladies didn't know what to do.

They looked at each other, and they all felt very ridiculous.

What a noble status the queen mother is, how can she chat with the women of merchants with such an underground status, looking at their faces, they still look like they are talking happily.

Just when these ladies hesitated, Hua Rong also walked towards Mrs. Dong, which made them even more afraid.

After all, they also took the initiative to isolate Mrs. Dong just now, and now the two most honorable women at the banquet have talked to her, wouldn't it be a slap in their faces.

There are also some people who are secretly mentally prepared and decide to wait for the queen mother and the queen mother to leave, and then go to talk to her, even if it is to probe the tone.

"This is Mrs. Dong, the mourning family often hears the queen mention you, and she has really admired her name for a long time." At the banquet, of course, Hua Rong couldn't show so close to Shen Xingyue in private, let alone call him by his name.

This is not that the two want to hide their relationship, who doesn't know that the queen mother and the queen have a good relationship? They were only for the sake of etiquette.

"The women have seen the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother is really as beautiful and moving as rumored." When Hua Rong came over, her voice was gentle with a smile, and she didn't mean to target her. Of course, Mrs. Dong returned the favor with a smile.

"Madame is also good, very beautiful." Hua Rong replied and stood aside.

Hua Rong didn't have the idea of getting acquainted with Mrs. Dong, if it weren't for Shen Xingyue begging her to give Mrs. Dong a long face, she wouldn't have taken the initiative to come over.

Although I don't know what Shen Xingyue thinks, as long as it is something that Shen Xingyue wants to do, Hua Rong will try to help, and this time is no exception.

"I discussed with Your Majesty before, thinking of giving the Dong family an identity as an imperial businessman, so that the Dong family will not lag behind in front of the ministers, what does Mrs. Dong think?" Shen Xingyue asked tentatively.

If ordinary people knew about this, they would definitely be happy, but the Dong family was different, so she had the intention of asking them what they thought first.

Sure enough, Mrs. Dong's face showed some embarrassment: "The queen also knows that the Dong family has never been involved in these things......"

"Of course, the government will not let you participate, and your being the emperor is to give you an upright and equal status with the ministers, and to avoid you being looked down upon." Shen Xingyue also reassured.

"Your Majesty said, the Dong family has made a lot of contributions to the Great Southern Dynasty, and if you are allowed to use the identity of a civilian all the time, you will really be sorry, so you came up with such a method. At that time, even if it is something that is taken care of by the official family, it can be bought and sold by the Dong family. Shen Xingyue once again walked through the good path.

At this time, Mrs. Dong was also moved, but she didn't agree immediately, but said embarrassedly: "What the queen said is really very tempting to the people's women, but the Dong family is now managed by Xiaoyu, and when I go back today, the women will tell Xiaoyu about this matter and let him decide." ”

Shen Xingyue wanted this effect, she handed the token she had prepared a long time ago to Mrs. Dong: "This is the token given by His Majesty, as long as Young Master Dong makes a decision, he can use this token to enter the palace at any time, and there is no need to summon him." ”

"Thank you for the grace of the Queen!" Mrs. Dong didn't expect Her Majesty to think about it so thoroughly, and she didn't even fear their Dong family, which made her particularly surprised.

Even if the Dong family has more silver, it still can't surpass the royal family. They don't have any big ambitions, they just want to live their lives in peace, that's all.

But in history, too many emperors were suspicious of the Dong family, and even suppressed them, resulting in when they were at their most depressed, they didn't dare to say that they were the Dong family when they went out, for fear of causing disaster.

But now it's different, today's saint is a person who understands, has a big heart, and is even willing to use such good conditions to win over the Dong family, Mrs. Dong is grateful at the same time, but also a little sighing.

If the ancestors had met such a good emperor, they would not have been so depressed at that time.

But such a thought was only crossed in an instant, after all, now the queen mother is still standing beside her and waiting for her to speak, and she can't ignore people.

Those ladies who were still waiting for the queen to leave and then talk to Mrs. Dong also watched the queen and Mrs. Dong talk happily, and even let Mrs. Dong sit at the first table during the banquet, which is so special.

"Today's banquet is not in any form, everyone just eats and drinks well." Shen Xingyue obviously didn't mean to communicate with them more, and when the banquet was held, she stood up and said aloud to everyone.

If it was an ordinary banquet, it would definitely be a place for them to meet, and if they really wanted to eat, they wouldn't be able to eat much.

But this is the order of the queen's mother, and no one does not obey it, and they all agree in succession.

They had already used some of the cold dishes and snacks on the table, but they didn't eat much, and soon someone came and removed them, and replaced them with new dishes.

Shen Xingyue was in charge, and let the first dish come up was a snack made of hawthorn, which aroused their appetite and warmed their stomachs.

Everyone ate the hot hawthorn cake, and even if they weren't very hungry, they all had a great appetite this time, looking forward to the next dish.

But there are still some people who want to restrain themselves, Shen Xingyue saw this, and said again: "After today's banquet, this palace has a gift for you, of course, the people who can get gifts are those who are full in this banquet and have eaten every dish, there will be palace records next to them, if anyone misses some dishes, they will not get the gift from this palace." ”

As soon as they heard that there was a private gift from the queen mother herself, the young ladies who had only planned to order it were also ready to enjoy the food.

They don't want to go home and be boasted about by other people, saying that everyone else has received gifts, but they don't.

Eating more is nothing, not to mention that the craftsmanship of the imperial chef is better than the other, and the things made are also delicious, making people almost swallow their tongues.

With Shen Xingyue's words, the others also ate harder, but Shen Xingyue also controlled the time of serving, so that they had time to chat for a while in addition to the feast, which could be regarded as a chance to socialize.

"What is the Queen's gift?" Mrs. Dong has been losing weight recently, but the thought of being a gift from the queen mother makes her a little nervous.
