CHAPTER XIII

The annual Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is also called the Reunion Festival. At this time of the year, the emperor will invite ministers of three grades and above to bring their families into the palace to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival together.

In previous years, the queen handled it herself, but this year the emperor still wants to hand over this matter to the queen. Since the queen was taken away by the emperor, she doesn't seem to have the spirit she used to have. In the past, when the three princes were there, she was full of confidence, and she had weight in words and deeds, but now that there is one less helper, the queen looks at her waist and is not straight.

The queen is afraid that she is really sad this time, and her eyes when she looks at the emperor are no longer as hot as before. Shen Xuanxin doesn't love the queen, so he can't feel it at all, and it doesn't matter to him whether the concubines in the harem love him or not. He still hated it when his concubines looked at him like nymphomaniacs.

"What is the so-called matter of the emperor calling his concubines over?"

Shen Xuanxin frowned when he saw the queen's particularly fake face when he saw Zhang Xiao, he just took away the right to support and didn't dig into her heart, as for her, who did she show like this for how many days.

He didn't have a good face either: "The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming, and this is also a grand day in the palace every year." The queen has experience in organizing banquets, and this year it is still handled by the queen. ”

Zhao Nianzhi knew that the emperor would not call her over if he was fine, and sometimes she was thinking about why the emperor was always so hot and cold to the women in the harem. There should always be a dozen women in the harem that the emperor likes, as if he is similar to everyone. The emperor really doesn't understand the affairs of men and women, or does he not like women in the first place.

"Yes, the concubine must prepare a banquet when she goes back."

After the queen left, Li Dezhong stood next to the imperial case and looked like he wanted to say something, he wanted to say it but didn't dare to say it. Shen Xuanxin looked at Li Dezhong like that and said, "Say what you want to say."

"The emperor's servant said don't be angry."

Oh, he was bold, and he didn't get angry.

"Don't say it if I'm afraid I'll be angry."

Li Dezhong really shut his mouth and didn't say anything, and after a while, he heard the emperor say: "Say it, the province will suffocate you."

Li Dezhong knelt on the ground: "The slave thinks that the queen's state just now is not very good, is it that the queen is too disappointed."

The pen in Shen Xuanxin's hand was thrown to the ground, revealing a gloomy face: "Presumptuous, a minion actually commented on my affairs."

Li Dezhong kept kowtowing on the ground, and he didn't know why this thing came out of his mind just now, causing him to say it. Seeing that the emperor was angry, he also knew that he had made a big mistake: "The emperor is angry, the emperor is angry."

Li Dezhong didn't know how many kowtows on the ground before he heard the emperor say let him get up: "Don't you know why she raised the third prince?" Don't you know what the situation of her Zhao family is? ”

Li Dezhong's brain must have been confused by paper just now, and he knew what the emperor said. The former dynasty and the harem were connected, and the Zhao family was bullying outside, and the harem was dominated by the queen. The emperor did this for the sake of the country.

"The minion was kicked in the head by a donkey and said nonsense for a while, please punish the emperor."

Punishment, he has a few heads enough to cut off. He is not an emperor who will kill people if he disagrees. "Eat more walnuts to replenish your brain."

Is the walnut thing unbearable or whatever, Cui Jieyu ate the walnut, and the emperor let him eat it.

……

Tingxue took a few Luo skirts and held them up in front of her Cui Jinxi: "Master, which one to wear tonight?"

The women of the harem of such a big banquet will dress up well, and she will not be conspicuous if she wears anything.

"Whatever, it's all the same."

Tingxue took a pink and a light blue and asked An Chun: "Sister An Chun, which one do you think the master wears looks good?"

"Everything."

Tingxue put the light blue back in the box, and she took the pink Luo skirt: "The master wears pink, pink shows skin color."

Cui Jinxi changed into Luo's skirt and Anchun combed her hair in a bun and put it on before walking towards the Qianqing Palace, as soon as she arrived at the gate of the Qianqing Palace, she saw a concubine wearing the same color dress as her entered.

She didn't see the concubine's face clearly, and she didn't know which one it was. Cui Jinxi decided to go back and change her clothes on the spot, she should be in time to hurry up.

Li Dezhong, who was guarding the gate of the Qianqing Palace, saw that Cui Jinxi was almost at the door, but he hurriedly turned around and went back, it was almost time for the banquet, and he didn't know what Cui Guiren was going back to do.

Cui Jinxi walked quickly, changed his clothes and hurried back to the Qianqing Palace after going back, but fortunately there was no delay. She sat in her place after being helped in by An Chun, and she was sweating because she was walking too fast and anxious just now. This son wiped his sweat and saw that it was Li Guiren who was wearing a pink dress.

She simply went back and changed it, otherwise it would be really embarrassing. The two of them are the same position, and their clothes are the same color, and they still sit together and don't know how to be ridiculed by everyone. It seems that pink is better to wear less, otherwise it is easy to hit the shirt.

When it was time for the banquet, the emperor and queen walked in, and the big shots were the last to appear. As soon as they came in, everyone had to bow down, just like worshipping the Buddha. After coming here, she also got used to kneeling every day, and her legs were also trained.

After Shen Xuanxin sat down and said some official words, the banquet began, and a group of palace maids and eunuchs came in with plates of food and began to serve food to each table. Cui Jinxi glanced at it with a dissipation, it should be that the things in front of everyone are the same.

The emperor doesn't like waste, so there are not many dishes, but every dish is exquisite, and Cui Jinxi has never eaten it. She didn't know if others had eaten it, but she knew that she had never seen it, let alone eaten it.

After the emperor spoke, she began to eat. An Chun knew what she liked, she ate fast, An Chun clamped it fast, anyway, no one saw her sitting in the corner.

After eating for a while, a dancing girl came in to perform, Cui Jinxi took a look and found that the dancing girls were all good, especially the one who led the dancer was simply white-skinned and beautiful with long legs.

The body is soft and jumping, and she is reluctant to take her eyes off a woman, let alone a man. Cui Jinxi glanced at Shen Xuanxin, and she found that she didn't see anything in his eyes.

He looked serious on the surface, and I don't know if he was already fascinated by the dancing girl in his heart.

Cui Jinxi looked at the ministers below again, the age of the third grade and above is not young, Cui Jinxi can call them grandfather. The ones one by one can't hide the little desire in their eyes, and there is nothing worse than the women present.

Her father and mother also came, and Cui Jinxi didn't want to see them more. Her aunt didn't come, they weren't close to her, and Cui Jinxi didn't have her own family below.

Cui Yayue's eyes kept looking at Zhang's place, yes, it was her biological mother, and the mother-son relationship was deep. When Cui Jinxi looked at Cui Yayue, her eyes met for a moment, and Cui Yayue's smug look seemed to say: Look at my mother, your aunt can only stay at home.

What happened last time was not enough for Cui Yayue to remember, looking at the worried look of the Zhang family sitting below, what could she do if she knew that her daughter had been wronged, but she had nothing to do in the palace here, so she could only worry blindly.

Zhang looked at his daughter: "Alas, I don't know how my daughter is doing in the palace?"

Cui Yi came directly: "Didn't you see it, how can you be glamorous."

Zhang's was instantly annoyed, and she didn't dare to make a loud noise: "What do you mean, don't think that Cui Jinxi's concubine has any hope when she enters the palace."

Cui Yi felt that Zhang was crazy: "Cui Jinxi is not called by you, let me sober up and don't scream." We can't take care of them. ”

This is the palace, not the Cui Mansion, and Cui Jinxi is not the concubine who is slaughtered by others, everything has changed, and it has become beyond the control of the Zhang family.

Cui Jinxi doesn't care what others do, she just eats and drinks well by herself. Not to mention that there are really a lot of women in this palace who like the emperor, even the Li Guiren next to her looks at the emperor differently.

Concubine Xian looked at the figure of the dancing girl and praised: "This dancing girl's figure is really good, but in terms of dancing skills, Concubine Rou dances well, the emperor said yes?"

Concubine Xian threw the topic to Shen Xuanxin, Shen Xuanxin drank the wine handed by the queen, looked at the dancing girl below and smiled lightly, as the saying goes, good-looking skins are the same, and the interesting soul is one in a hundred: "Concubine Rou's dancing skills are excellent in the palace."

When Concubine Shu heard what the emperor said, she also said: "What the emperor said is that how can the dancing girl be compared with Concubine Rou."

The queen watched everyone talk about the dancing posture of the dancing concubine one by one, and she also added a little blockage to Concubine Rou: "The concubine also thinks that the dancing girl dances very well, although it is not as good as Concubine Rou's dancing, it is also good." Suyun Reward. ”

Only Concubine Rou smiled bitterly in her heart, the emperor had been watching the dancing girl dance just now, if Concubine Xian didn't mention him, I'm afraid she would have to forget that she could also dance. A dancing girl just fascinates everyone.
