Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Long Palace Feast

Sure enough, the room was brightly lit, and when she pushed the door open, Daddy was seated in the upper seat, and the table in front of him was full of delicious food.

"Daddy, I'm back."

Wuxin trotted over and sat down on his left hand side, and began to eat very consciously.

"How's the dungeon?" Baresley took a slice of fish for her and placed it on her plate.

"Many people have recognized my strength, don't worry, I won't live up to my father's hopes."

She used chopsticks to sort out the fish bones, and the tender fish meat was broken as soon as she picked it up, and then slowly put it in her mouth after sorting out the thorns one by one.

"There will be a palace banquet in half a month, when the queen will feast the ladies of the major families, and you are also among them, deal with it carefully."

Baili Silei seemed a little worried, this palace banquet was a birthday banquet organized for Jun Ruxi, and generally the prince would choose a good couple at this age, he was afraid that Jun Lie would come and give Ruxi no intention.

"What is this palace feast for?" Although Wuxin asked, she knew in her heart that this ancient imperial banquet was like a blind date.

"It's the feast of Ruxi."

It turned out to be Jun Ruxi's birthday banquet, and after understanding it, she began to think about whether she wanted to give a gift, after all, Jun Ruxi gave her a peach blossom hairpin on her birthday.

"Meow~"

Wuxin's feet were kept by a lump of soft and glutinous things, and she subconsciously kicked the steamed bun out, and then remembered that it was the cat she bought.

The steamed buns rolled a few times, got up from the ground dizzily, and ran to the feet of Wuxin with empty steps.

"Meow~"

Unintentionally put down the chopsticks, looked at the steamed bun with an apologetic gaze, and then carefully held the steamed bun in his arms.

"I'm not used to having a pet around, sorry."

"Meow."

The steamed bun waved his paws, rubbing his head against her palm.

Unintentionally grasping its claws, its gaze solemn.

"Why do you have blood on your paws!"

The steamed bun pulled his paws back with some weakness.

"Meow."

Wuxin then remembered that cats eat fish, and she didn't know what Mantou did to that tank of fish when she wasn't at home today.

When Wanqiu saw the blood stains on the paws of the steamed bun, she immediately ran to the table in the back room, she saw that the jar was empty, and shouted.

"Miss! The steamed buns stole the fish. ”

Unintentionally, he grabbed its claws that wanted to run away and beat it violently.

"Eat, eat, you see you're all fat into a ball, do you know who gave the fish?" She had a hard time feeding this fish, but she ate this guy when she was not there.

"Meow~" The steamed bun was still aggrieved and teary, and it kept holding its shoulders.

"Look what you bought!" Baili Silei knew that the fish in the tank was a gift from Xiao Zixiao to Yu Wuxin, and in his eyes, the fish in the tank represented Xiao Zixiao's heart.

So when he learned that the fish was being eaten, he was furious.

"......" she looked at her father and suddenly flicked the chopsticks, picked up the steamed bun and threw it out, and then the steamed bun ran back and forth all over the yard to avoid the sword light and sword shadow of the secret guard.

"That father, after all, it's just a brute...... "The cat I bought with my own money has to feel sorry for the fifty taels of silver."

"Shut up." Balislei picked up the chopsticks and kept picking up vegetables for her, and she didn't dare to say anything more, only eating the food silently.

She is also not worried that someone will be able to catch the steamed bun, this cat is cunning and very spiritual.

Time flies, half a month later, at this time officially entered the summer, June 15, sunny, auspicious, should be married, opened, banquet.

The queen sent a gilded red post, the content of which focused on inviting Wuxin.

Everyone knows that this birthday banquet is a coming-of-age banquet for the sixteen-year-old prince, and it is also a blind date banquet, and the queen's actions directly made her the target of public criticism.

Before dawn on this day, it was only about three or four o'clock in modern time, and I was dug up from my bed and washed in early spring and late autumn because I was sleepy and hazy.

The aunt in charge sent a set of dark blue palace clothes, elegant and generous, dignified and beautiful, the dark gold pattern is lifelike, the embroidery is delicate, and there is a pair of dark blue koi embroidered shoes, the sole is almost five centimeters high, very exquisite, she asked carefully to know that it was produced by Chaoxia Pavilion.

Every detail of entering the palace is not a trivial matter, and the makeup must not be rude, and there are families in history who have been condemned for improper makeup, so she takes the trouble to let the early spring and late autumn fiddle on her head and face.

The original owner has a very good foundation, three-dimensional and exquisite facial features, fair skin and blown, and now it is so beautiful that it will be a rare beauty in the world.

But she had no intention of being in the limelight at this blind date conference, so she deliberately restrained her edge, her makeup was exquisite, and she became a lot more ordinary.

"Okay, okay, early spring, this is already beautiful, give those young ladies a way to live." Be humble.

"Miss, it is rumored that you are ugly and stupid, so you must blind their dog eyes." Late Autumn picked up the rouge and dotted it on her lips.

"You!"

She smiled helplessly, allowing her skills to show off in early spring and late autumn, showing off their perfect makeup skills.

There is also Baili Lu in the invitation list this time, even if she knows that she has no chance to climb the prince, she deliberately dresses herself up gorgeously, and the conspicuous red palace dress is embroidered with a large rich peony, which is extremely public, and it is quite noisy.

"The second sister is good, my sister is really in love with my sister these days." The three of them stood at the door, who looked at the other who was not pleasing to the eye.

"Thanks to the eldest sister and the third sister who occasionally come to have some fun for my sister, this day is okay."

Baili Lu's face changed, remembering that every time she went to Baili Wuxin to show off, she was ridiculed by her subordinates like a chicken in soup when she went back, and she was so angry that she wanted to scratch Hua Baili Wuxin's face.

Li Wan didn't say anything, she looked unintentional with a strange look of kindness.

"They are all sisters, and when I see you living in harmony, I am relieved to be a mother."

As soon as he wanted to refute the two falsehoods, he heard his father's voice coming.

"It's not early, I have to leave for the palace quickly, and I'll talk about it when I come back, I don't want to, get in the car."

Baili Silei was waiting for Wuxin in the carriage at the head of the row, but he didn't see Wuxin get on the car for a long time, and when he lifted the curtain, he saw that Wuxin was stopped by Li Wan and Baililu.

It is well known that there is no bottom line for Baili Silei to favor the second miss, so when Baili Wuxin sat in the first carriage representing the master with Baili Master, the next person just felt that it was normal.

Just as the carriage swayed towards the palace, Bailiqin, who was hiding behind the gate, looked enviously at the distant procession, the looming high palace wall, sooner or later, there would be a place for her Bailiqin there.

The carriage soon came to the gate of the palace, the ministers did not have a special passage to enter the palace, the only passage open to the outside world was as serious as a modern traffic jam, and they had to get off the bus until noon, and they were dizzy with their heads unintentionally, and they understood why they had to enter the palace as soon as possible.

The palace has four gates, the east gate, the west gate, the south gate, and the north gate, but except in very special cases, only the south gate is generally opened.

Because the founding emperor was a reckless emperor, he didn't pay so much attention to it at that time, so he didn't name these gates, and built the palace hastily according to his own preferences.

After thousands of years, on the basis of the thatched house of the founding emperor, the decoration has more than doubled, and it has become a glorious palace.

The palace is centered on the Imperial Garden, the east gate is a shortcut for the royal family, and the east is the direction of the sun rising to the sun, representing hope and strength.

Therefore, the emperor's Qianlong Palace, the queen's Fengyi Palace, and the prince's East Palace are all in this direction, while the palace of the queen concubine is leaning on both sides, in the northeast or southeast direction.

West Gate, where the sun sets, the ancestral emperor built the cold palace and the dungeon two extremely yin palaces here, implying eternal darkness and despair, and the people who are placed in this direction are people and prisoners who are not valued by the emperor.

The location of the north gate is not very auspicious in Qian'an country, and it is a eunuch or a miscellaneous palace maid who lives.

The south gate is located in a pleasant climate, there are many capable people, and the Jinluan Hall of the emperor's last dynasty is also built in this direction.

Unintentionally landed on her feet, she looked at the bluestone floor under her feet, and sighed that she was fortunate that when she went out, she begged her father to arrange a small carriage for the two of them to ride in early spring and late autumn, otherwise they would definitely wear out their little feet all the way from the house, and she was distressed.

On their way to come, the crowning of the prince's coming-of-age ceremony has been completed.

The palace banquet was held in the auspicious hall of Fengyi Palace, and as soon as they entered the door, they attracted everyone's attention, the officials got up and saluted the prime minister, and the ladies guessed about the woman in blue with elegant steps behind Baili Silei

"Isn't it rumored that the second lady of the prime minister is vulgar and arrogant, and she is still a fool?" There was a whisper of chatter from the crowd.

"Sure enough, the rumors are not credible. In two years, it will be on par with the first beauty Yun Yiyi. ”

And those who had seen Baili Wuxin in Jinguang Temple had a little more doubt in their eyes, at that time in Jinguang Temple, it was clear that she was more amazing than today.

Their actions were under the emperor's right hand, and everyone sat down in turn, Wuxin and Baililu sat in the second row, although they were separated by a distance of more than a meter, but her hateful gaze was pierced on Wuxin's skin.

"Everyone is looking at the second sister, and the second sister really gave birth to a good skin."

"After the award, the eldest sister's peony today is also very good-looking."

As far as she knows, there is a favored concubine in the palace, who is a hypocritical and jealous person, and that concubine loves peonies, whether it is clothes or supplies, she loves to embroider peonies.

According to the investigation of the underground palace, there was once a concubine who collided with her peony-colored clothes at the palace banquet, and died in the dry well the next day, the reason for which is known to everyone.

If that concubine Dan saw Baililu bumping into a peony with her today, and she was dressed in red and flamboyant, she would inevitably hate Baililu at such an important banquet.

"What do you mean!" Baililu looked vigilant, and now no matter what she said unintentionally, she felt that there was something else.

"Literally." She deliberately sells off.

"You ......"

Before Baililu could ask why, there was a sharp goose male sang from the eunuch at the door.

"The emperor has arrived, the queen has arrived, the prince has arrived, and Concubine Dan has arrived~"

"Long live the emperor, long live, the queen is a thousand years old, the prince is blessed with Jin'an, and the concubine is auspicious."

The emperor strode up to the high position, waved his sleeve robe and helped him slowly before he said slowly

"Zhong Aiqing is flat."

"Emperor Xie!"

Unintentionally, when he looked up, he saw Jun Ruxi sitting on the emperor's right hand.

He is wearing a golden dress today, his temperament is cold, and his facial features are like carefully carved by God, like a fairy.

Jun Ruxi also noticed her, to be precise, since he stepped into the auspicious hall, he had been peeking at her with his spare eyes.

Today, she has become ugly! Do you really just want to marry him? At this moment, his extremely strong self-esteem was hit, and his heart was even more determined not to let her go.

Shu Qi watched the two of them "secretly send autumn waves" to each other, with affection, and couldn't keep their mouths together, he was happier than Jun Ruxi, and he didn't know what he was happy about.

The banquet began, with a glass of wine and a toast among the ministers.

The dancers in the center of the hall twisted their bodies vigorously, and the cups were staggered, dreamy.

Wuxin looked for Dugu Lian's figure at the banquet, the seat belonging to the General's Mansion has been empty, I haven't seen Dugu Lian for a long time, and I actually miss him a little.

Halfway through the drink, someone finally couldn't wait to be the first to start, and Tang Li, who was dressed in an official robe, stood up and saluted the emperor.

"Your Majesty, Tang Yan, the daughter of the minister, prepared a song for the prince's birthday to wish the prince a long and healthy life."

"Exactly." Although Jun Lie has already had a candidate in his heart, the process still has to be repeated.

Unintentionally eating the citrus peeled in late autumn, isn't Tang Li Tang Sun's father, with a fat head and big ears, and cloudy eyes, no wonder he raised a color like Tang Sun.

But Tang Yan is delicate and lovely, a small jasper, and his temperament is very pure, but it is difficult to say whether it is true or not.

Tang Yan was wearing a beige curly robe, holding a light green lyre and walking to the center of the hall, only to see her kneeling on the ground, the piano falling on her legs, and a pair of plain hands picking up the strings.

Tang Yan sang Qian'an's famous confession song "Shallow Acacia", and his bird-like singing voice echoed in his ears.

It's just that in the end, Luohua is intentionally ruthless, no matter how Tang Yan throws flattery at Jun Ruxi and complains deeply, Jun Ruxi has always had a cold face, and he doesn't give her a look, which makes Tang Yan very unwilling.

As for Jun Ruxi, in fact, he has always had a peeking at Baili Wuxin expression.

His inner world has been shouting, you see, someone is seducing me, if you are not jealous, come and seduce me, if you seduce me, it will be yours.

But there was no fluctuation on his face, and when he saw that Wuxin's gaze had been staying on the seat of the General's Mansion, he almost crushed a mouthful of the cup.

"Emperor, what do you think?" After the song, the emperor turned his head and asked Jun Ruxi.

"Get out."

One word, mercilessly, piercing people's hearts, Tang Yan, who had already sat back in his position, turned pale, clenched his fists and couldn't help but cry.

The emperor coughed awkwardly, this son is too faceless.

"Ahem, Tang Aiqing has a heart, appreciate the jade Ruyi."

"Thank you." Tang Li was very dissatisfied in his heart, but he held back.

"Your Majesty, the concubine thought, today is the prince's birthday, why don't you let the official ladies and ladies all present a dance for the prince, and a hundred flowers can bloom so that the prince can choose well."

Concubine Dan suddenly climbed from her position to the emperor's dragon chair and sat down, her bewitching figure was unobstructed, and the queen's face was as ugly as swallowing a fly, she knew that this Concubine Dan was vulgar and rude, and it was difficult to get into the hall of elegance.

Although the emperor was dissatisfied in his heart and felt that this would damage his majesty, this was his favorite concubine after all, and how could he be willing to push it away.

"What Concubine Ai said is reasonable, so let's start with the smallest official."

The group of flowers is gorgeous, and the bells and whistles are overwhelming, and gradually people begin to be aesthetically fatigued and their attention is scattered.

I have no intention of eating fruit, and I am bored with my legs crossed.

These young ladies dance, play the piano, sing, the movements are too repetitive, and there is nothing new in copying, their focus is to throw a flattering eye at Jun Ruxi, thinking that people will fall in love with you if they throw a flattering eye? I'm afraid I'm living in a dream.

She moved her numb ass, it was going to be dark, and she was halfway through the performance, and she didn't know when it would be her turn.
