Chapter 51: The Opening
Gu Shendu's mouth was dry when he told the story, but he couldn't drink saliva halfway.
She still remembered that Wang Po had said before that she couldn't leave in the middle of the banquet, and if she drank water, she would be hungry for so long.
Seeing that it was not early, Gu Shendui noticed that some people were already returning to their positions, breaking away from small circles.
I also knew that it was time to stop, "That's all for this time, it's not too early, do you know when the banquet will start?" ”
Wen Yan liked the story very much, although the story was told in the simplest tone.
Even because of his lack of experience, the story told by Gu Shenwan greatly reduced the charm of the story itself.
But after all, she has read poetry and books, and she can still see the value contained in this story.
It was in that wonderful journey, in that magical world, a monkey popped out of the stone, and this monkey went to find immortals and asked, and finally became immortals.
And after learning the spell, he was the king and hegemon, and he got a bunch of hugs, but what about after that?
There are so many things ahead that have not been clarified.
Why the monkey was born, and why the monkey's master did not allow the monkey to mention the teacher.
In the end, he made a fairy monkey born in a famous and righteous family become the demon king.
"It's not too early but it's not too late, and if the banquet really begins, it still depends on when those big names arrive."
"You continue to tell your story, and when the palace attendants shout, it's not too late to take their places."
Wen Yan vaguely felt that the story should have reached a key point, and the monkey who called himself the Monkey King should have just started his journey.
After all, there are still human beings and fairy worlds that have not yet unveiled the veil of mystery.
No matter how stupid Gu Shenwan was, she knew that Wen Yan saw that this story was far from finished, and couldn't help but sigh at the sensitivity of the ancients to words.
Even if it's so vague, you can still be deeply attracted and look at it at the same time.
Just as he was about to continue, there was a shrill voice from the waiter outside.
"The crown prince has arrived, the king of Bei'an has arrived, the king of Pingxi has arrived, and the king of Zhennan has arrived!"
Now I have to sit down quickly.
Although only a few princes and princes came.
But a few of them are here, and the emperor and even the real birthday star of this banquet, the Queen Mother, are also coming soon.
Fang Xiling listened to the sound of the news outside, and there was no lack of envy on her face.
"Sure enough, the face of the Queen Mother is the biggest, and a birthday banquet will take pictures of all the princes scattered outside, and even the emperor will ...... when she comes back."
She knew she had said something she shouldn't have said, and immediately shut her mouth.
But who doesn't have a few feelings in their hearts?
Just by listening to the title, you can tell that these four are the heaviest, and if the young ladies of the appropriate age present pick up one of them, they will be able to immediately ascend to the high position.
At that time, power, wealth, status and everything are at your fingertips, so the reason why many people want to participate in this banquet is to pave the way with their own girls.
It's unlikely, but what if.
Gu Shenwan probably guessed that the Queen Mother was a role model for women in the world, and these princes were all golden men in everyone's hearts.
However, when she heard the word prince, she still had a strange face for a moment, and remembered the past incident that she had heard Kuye talk about before.
"I'm a scumbag, and I have rebellious tendencies." Gu Shenwan didn't dare to let anyone hear it.
muttered in his seat, and suddenly felt a lot happier in his heart, and even those nervousness were basically gone.
She even dared to scold the prince in private!
How could you be afraid of a small banquet.
"Ahh
The prince lost his honor in public, and everyone knew that this man was sometimes not very clear-headed, so scared that he didn't even dare to squeak.
For a while, the needle drop could be heard, and only the sound of the wind blowing the bead curtain remained.
Ye Qianli rubbed his nose strangely, noticed the unusual movement around him, smiled and waved his hand, "It's about the weather that has been a little cold recently, it's time to add clothes." ”
The autumn season is always unpredictable, but today the weather is clearly still a little hot.
No one dared to speak, and the people who served them were trembling, for fear that something would go wrong.
Gu Shendui's stomach couldn't bear the loneliness and protested, she quietly pressed her stomach with her hand, trying to make her stop a little but to no avail.
No one was talking, all the attention was on himself, and the surroundings were very quiet, not even whispering.
It can be said that whoever pours tea can hear the sound of many people.
At this time, there was a rumbling sound in the stomach, and of course it was not too quiet.
The sound didn't come from one place, and after the silence fell down, many small voices were amplified, and not only one person felt hungry.
At present, this matter is worth celebrating, Gu Shendui sat beside the eldest lady and lowered his head in silence.
"Don't lose your manners later, and don't gobble up food, only two more snacks at most."
Gu Shendui heard that this was the voice of the eldest lady, but he didn't see any movement of the eldest lady, and her mouth only trembled slightly.
It turns out that I can still communicate in this way!
It's a pity that she won't, so she can only continue to return to the same state in silence.
Sure enough, the eldest lady didn't say anything else, as if that sentence was not what she said.
Soon, "The Queen Mother arrived!" ”
"The emperor and queen have arrived!"
"Concubine Wen has arrived!"
"Concubine Min and Qin Zhaoyi have arrived!"
Sure enough, when the time comes, there are more people, and everyone who deserves to be notified is a big person.
When the people are basically there, the ladies and ladies of each family will go to the main hall.
Of course, not everyone can sit in the main hall.
There are also some fourth- and fifth-grade officials and family members who come, and these can only be ranked farther away, and they are almost not qualified to meet Shengyan.
Gu Shenwan was originally the last qualified even if he came, after all, her identity was a concubine, but the eldest lady was a saint of the second rank or above.
Borrowing the light of the eldest lady, Gu Shendui also came to a relatively high position, and of course he was more like a quail.
Yan Yan, Gu Houye's new favorite, has also been following the eldest lady, and she has never seen her say a word from beginning to end, nor has she seen the eldest lady reject her.
The matchmaker and Gu Xueyuan were led to the back of the center for some reason, and they did not sit in front of the glory of the eldest lady.
"Don't look left and right, the matchmaker and Gu Xueling are self-inflicted, there can only be three people coming, they are extra."
Yan Yan had a well-fitting smile on her face, her eyes were looking straight ahead, she looked confident and open, but she was always one step behind the eldest lady.
Again, she didn't turn her head, but the voice couldn't have been anyone else but her.
Some things that Gu Shenwan couldn't understand before were also figured out, and the eldest lady chose her, really because she wanted to take out the position of some people.
