40.

On the third day of the banquet, the emperor set up a banquet to entertain the relatives and ministers, this banquet set up singing and dancing, eating, and playing in one, all the famous families vied to show their faces at the banquet, the scene was grand and luxurious, and the people who went to the banquet all wanted to wear the coats given by the heavenly family, but there was no requirement for clothes, shoes and hats.

"Miss, let's go with you today, the old slave moved some game yesterday and flashed his waist, I'm afraid I will lose my ugliness at the banquet."

Granny Yan didn't see anyone early this morning, but now that the banquet has begun, she has come to say goodbye to Rumeng.

"Mother-in-law is okay, right? It's okay, I've been at the table for a short time, and Heping Er will come back after a few glasses of wine. ”

The old slave was relieved. Oh, the cage slave who will return tomorrow has been picked up, and the young lady can leave tomorrow morning. ”

"Okay, my mother-in-law is the safest in acting herself, and Meng'er is very worried."

Granny Yan politely said a few words, and then bowed her waist and retired.

"Miss, I saw Granny Yan in the yard last night, why did I twist my waist today. I don't think it's that simple. ”

"Grandmother's people are not easy for me to interrogate, I will be with Sister Ling'er at the banquet in a while, you can take advantage of the situation to take a look."

"Well, the slave knows. Miss, will you bring this pair of Huasheng today? ”

"No, I'm not old yet, so it's too early to bring this. Let's change the style, it's better to comb a bun. ”

"It's okay, that pair of pearl head ropes are more plain, and they make Miss more lively."

The master and servant packed up and came to the banquet, which was already full. Two people sit on each table, and the table utensils are roast lamb shank, roasted hare, and a few other seasonal dishes.

After Rumeng entered the scene, I don't know who said anything, the scene was quiet for a while, and a few others whispered. Fortunately, Bai Ling'er relieved her and pulled her to her desk.

"How long has Sister Ling'er been here?"

"It's been a while, Dongyue was dragged by several generals to eat and drink, but it's good that you came."

"Sister, what happened when I started just now?"

"Oh, some people are looking at you and chewing on the root of your tongue."

Bai Ling'er seemed to know, but she didn't want to mention it, and she wanted to cover it up.

"Mo Li, try this, it's better than our cook."

"Sister Ling'er, Meng'er treats you as her own. Sister don't deceive. ”

Bai Ling'er didn't know how to deal with it, and asked her to teach those leather monkeys that they could also beat and scold, but she was a little at a loss in the face of the delicate Rumeng.

After thinking about it again and again, I still don't want to make my sister angry in front of me.

"Sister Meng'er, if my sister wants to hide it from you, I'm really afraid that you will be angry if you know. If you ask, I'll tell you. Now it is rumored that you have climbed up to the concubine and want to marry you to the prince. You've also got a royal decree. ”

After Bai Ling'er finished speaking, she waited for the case to rise up like a dream, and angrily reprimanded Song Wei. But after waiting for a long time, she didn't move. Shook her hand in front of her again, isn't my sister angry?

"Sister Meng'er, how about you say something. I'm really desperate. ”

"Sister, don't be afraid, I'm just thinking about the cause and effect of this matter. I always feel that something is wrong. ”

"Oh, sister Meng'er, don't think about it, have you seen the two sisters over there?"

Rumeng looked in the direction of Bai Ling'er's finger, and two beautiful and elegant women sat at the desk, their bright eyes were deep, and they looked in both directions.

"Sister, these are the two nieces of the national teacher, I heard that they have been cultivated as princesses since they were children. One is the prince of Man, and the other is the king of Hejun. When you walked into the concubine's dormitory that day, you must have been looked at by the national teacher, and at this time, the wind was released, so that you became the target of the public. ”

I don't know if it's a coincidence, one of the younger women looked at Rumeng, and they all saw a hint of clue when they looked at each other for two days.

"My sister won't talk to her in a while, they are all jealous to death, and I am afraid it will be bad for you."

"The emperor and queen have arrived."

Rumeng was just about to open her mouth to explain, when the voice of the inner supervisor sounded in the hall.

The emperor in bright yellow clothes led the queen mother into a table on a high place.

After sitting down, the emperor patted the queen's hand with a smile before facing the courtiers.

"See the emperor, see the queen."

"Get up and take your seats, don't be inhibited. Today, I and the queen are also here to join in the fun. Aiqing are casual. ”

"Yes"

It's still a neat answer, or a bow on the spot. The national teacher Yan Jinxiu was not very happy when he saw the emperor, and immediately stepped forward to offer advice.

"The emperor is blessed, since it is a banquet today, there will be singing and dancing, and the minister's two nieces have prepared some programs, and I hope that the emperor will be gracious."

"Okay, the national teacher has a heart, please come up quickly. I will add some color today, and if the queen has a favorite, we will be rewarded. ”

"Thank you, Emperor, Niangniang's grace."

Rumeng admits that the sisters are quite talented. The older sister played two phoenix dances, and the younger sister danced a dance. With tacit understanding, eye contact is seamless, and it must have been practiced for a long time.

The queen mother loved it very much, and rewarded the sisters with a pair of golden hairpins.

The later performances are slightly inferior, but they are also better than the implication and are lively. Everyone became more and more relaxed and toasted the emperor one after another. Just as she was enjoying herself, the queen stood up and raised her glass and said.

"Today's emperor is rarely happy, and some time ago, he was annoyed for a few days because of the heavy punishment of Pingyang Hou. I heard that the fourth lady of the Pingyang Hou Mansion came to the banquet, I don't know if the mourning family may have a glass of wine with her? ”

"Oh? The girl from the Hou family in Pingyang is also here? Which is? ”

Rumeng didn't dare to slack off, bowed his head and walked to the front of the royal car, and made a big salute.

"The little girl Liu Rumeng sees the emperor and the queen."

"Get up, it's a lot of etiquette today."

"Your Majesty."

Rumeng stood up, and the inner supervisor brought a wine cup and poured a glass.

"Like a dream, thank you for your love, I wish my mother a golden face forever."

"I love to listen to this child's talk, and it's comfortable to look at."

The queen drank the wine in the cup with a smile and called the palace maid.

"This thing is still what I brought when I didn't marry into the palace, and now I see you as a girl, so I'll reward you."

The palace maid presented a flower hairpin with both hands, and the coral double petals and rice beads made the leaves for the jade. In the poem, Zeng Yun, the hibiscus is not as fragrant as the pearl cui, I am afraid that it is the beauty of the pearl cui.

"The little girl is very loving."

"It's good to like it, I'm really afraid that you will dislike these outdated styles. Dream girl didn't see you perform just now, but what will happen? Let everyone open their eyes too. ”

The queen must have been prepared, first took out the girl's headdress, and now asked her to perform in front of everyone. Presumably she can't refuse, if a girl from the Hou Mansion can't say anything, I'm afraid that people will fall into the handle.

After thinking about it, I asked for a guqin like a dream. What you are best at is not to be embarrassed.

"The queen mother, she is not good at learning, and the little girl is ugly."

Suddenly, the banquet was quiet, and I saw the green fingers plucking the strings, and the soothing sound of the piano came, and I could feel the majesty of the mountains and rivers, and the hidden ambition of the birds.

The melody rises and falls, stretches endlessly, and is beautiful and beautiful; The tone is quiet and beautiful, but there is movement in the stillness, as if a hidden dragon is dormant, waiting to fly.

At the high pitch of the piano music, the flute sound came from the northwest corner, echoing the piano sound, the melody was low and long, and the song showed tiredness and sleepiness, like a thousand mountains covered by clouds.

Like a dream, he gradually entered the artistic conception, did not want to be trapped by the mountains and rocks, wanted to break through the sky, a dragon roared, and finally went straight to the sky.

At the end of the song, no one dares to make a sound, just like the people who are still trapped in the painting at the end of the song.

"Okay, I didn't expect the girl to be so good at the piano, I don't know what kind of repertoire you played?"

"Back to the emperor, this is the little girl's private enjoyment, and she has not yet taken a name, and today I have this opportunity, and I hope that the emperor will give her a name."

"This song is soothing and slow, moving and quiet, and there is a tendency to gallop for thousands of miles, so it is better to call the tiger roaring and the dragon chanting."

"Thank the emperor for the name."

"Very good, Your Majesty, it's better for the concubine to ask the musicians in the palace to learn this song, and it will be good for you to play in the future."

"Okay, the queen will arrange it."

"Then I'm still tired like a dream, the girl gave me a score, presumably this song will be passed on to future generations"

"The mother has praised it, and when the little girl returns home, she will tidy it up and present it to you."

"I was so busy talking about music that I forgot that the girl was still standing, so go back to the table and sit down."

Rumeng was indeed tired of standing, and sat down after thanking him.

"If I heard it right, then the flute is Zishi, right? I still know your bass. ”

"Zi Shi sees the emperor"

There was a person standing in the corner, with a purple and purple hairband, looking a little like Song Wei from a distance, but he was more humble and introverted than him.

"Zishi's flute is becoming more and more proficient, presumably Uncle Huang has been teaching him a lot on weekdays."

Prince Zheng was frail when he was young, he liked the flute, and he once had the nickname of the Jade Flute Prince, and he visited the people many times.

"Back to the emperor, my father has just been in good health recently, and he can only give one or two pointers, and Zishi has not played for a long time, and he is a little rusty."

"Today you are in harmony with the ensemble of the Dream Girl, and you are humble. Come and sit down, and hide in a corner. ”

"Yes, Zishi obeys."

He Jun Wang held the wine cup, and the inner supervisor served new utensils.

"Why don't you see Zi Jun?"

The emperor just thought of his younger brother here, and looked around.

"Back to the emperor, Lord Man took leave today, saying that he was unwell."

"This kid hasn't liked to be lively since he was a child, so let him go."

Seeing that the emperor was still in high spirits, the queen continued to arrange the next song and dance.

Rumeng was really tired, and he couldn't wait until the banquet was over, so he said hello to Bai Ling'er and retreated. The banquet staff was mixed, and no one would have noticed that she had withdrawn.

After standing in front of the palace gate for a while, she still didn't see Ping'er come back, and the inner supervisor asked if she needed someone to send her back to the house. If you dream of two steps away, you can see the courtyard at the gate of the palace, and you can just shout if you have something. Declined the kindness and walked to the house.

I meditated on the stone bricks on the road in my heart, and only counted ninety-one pieces, where a big hand was born, covering my mouth and nose, and even my arm was clamped.

It's broken, forget that it's night, if you can't call for help, the inner prison in front of the palace gate will not know her safety.

There are also feet that can be moved, and after kicking back a few times, I found that not only was it useless, but I couldn't even stabilize my body, but I was hugged tighter by the "bad guys".

"Don't move, where do you want me to lie if I fall?"
