Chapter 733: Full Moon Banquet
The dark clouds shrouded the capital for nearly three months, and finally there was a little joy because of the concubine's child.
But for Wandedi, it's more than just a little simple.
On the day of the birth of the prince, Emperor Wande not only issued an amnesty, but also went to the southern suburbs to worship, and even wanted to change the name of the era.
The last one could not be made due to reasons such as timing and the minister's advice, but it was enough to prove how much Emperor Wande attached importance to the little prince.
In other words, who is in charge of the East Palace has been revealed.
On the day of the prince's full moon banquet, Emperor Wande even issued a decree to be carried out in a big way.
It is said that during the National War, it was not appropriate to be so extravagant, but Zheng Guogong moved out the folk custom of rushing to rejoice, and others were helpless.
Since it is necessary to operate it on a large scale, it is natural to invite high-ranking officials and their families.
Dabao was among them, and even Ji Yu received a message from the palace, saying that Concubine Zheng wanted to see her.
She was not surprised, since she entered the palace, she expected that there would be this day.
It's not that she treats herself as a dish too much, but as Dabao's sister-in-law and Dabao's closest and most trusted person, the Zheng family didn't think that there would be a ghost to make a fuss from her.
It's just that due to the chaotic situation some time ago, and Concubine Zheng has been concentrating on protecting the fetus, it was postponed.
If you are nervous, you are naturally nervous.
In Ji Yu's eyes, if the capital is Longtan Tiger's Den, then the imperial city is about to catch up with the eighteenth layer of hell. Who knows what's in there? In short, it won't be a little angel flapping its wings.
But she is more worried about Dabao than about herself.
Since Dabao was named King Min, except for the time when he sent the army out to fight, he has almost never left King Min's mansion.
In addition to not wanting to provoke the suspicion of Emperor Wande, there is also a most important reason - for him at the moment, King Min's Mansion is the most dangerous, but also the safest place.
It's a bit contradictory to say this, after all, she only entered the mansion because of Dabao's poisoning and nine deaths a year ago.
However, in the past few months, Feng En has investigated clearly, and the poisoning should not have been instructed by Emperor Wande and Concubine Zheng, but Fan Xian did it without authorization.
Fan Xian didn't know about Feng En's involvement with Dabao, but he felt that Feng En and Lao An Wang were getting closer, and he expected that he would inevitably get involved in it, and he didn't want him to have any chance of gaining power, so he thought about solving this trouble.
Of course, the main thing is to share the worries of Emperor Wande.
It's just that the horse's fart slapped on the horse's hooves, not only did he not share it, but he deducted a big pot for Emperor Wande.
It is not appropriate to poke things in the open, Emperor Wande did not punish him openly, but secretly he was inevitably reprimanded.
That's why Feng Enneng finally decided that it was him.
However, it can't be done if it's confirmed, after all, the evidence is not perfect, and Emperor Wande is determined to cover it, so Fan Xian will inevitably be saved.
The relationship between the Imperial City and the Min Wangfu is already in danger, and if the carriage and horses are displayed at this time, it is equivalent to completely piercing the last layer of window paper, at least in terms of the current situation, it is very unfavorable to the Min Wangfu.
It's better to take a step back and take a breather.
Ji Yu made a note of that Fan Xian in her heart, but she was also more convinced of one thing - if Emperor Wande didn't want to add the notoriety of "going back on his word" and "mutilating the emperor's nephew" in addition to the "improper position", if he really left a stench for 10,000 years, even if he wanted to do something to Dabao, he would not be in the Min Wangfu and the Imperial City, and at the same time, he would also restrain the Zheng family.
But there are no absolutes in everything, in case Fan Xian repeats his old tricks, in case there are some messy people in the middle......
Ji Yu thought about it and almost couldn't sleep all night.
Before leaving the next day, Teng Xiu was specially found.
"I think Dabao likes Basil a lot, so why don't you let Basil serve him today."
Although they went to the banquet together, men and women sat differently, and Dabao couldn't always be under her nose, which was what Ji Yu was most worried about.
Teng Xiu said: "Miss Ji doesn't know, whether it is Basil or the guards and eunuchs who went today, they will not be able to enter the imperial city. ”
Ji Yu patted her forehead.
Yes, in front of Zhengyang Gate, civil officials get off the sedan chair and their facial features get off the horse, this is the rule.
Those who are highly respected or have special status may be given a ride on their shoulders, and the rest can only rely on foot, let alone bring people in......
Teng Xiu knew where her thoughts were: "Fortunately, the slave can still follow the side, Miss Ji can rest assured, the slave will never let the prince have an accident, but if the prince has the slightest mistake, the slave will raise his head ......"
Ji Yu shook her head and interrupted him: "Your life is also your life, it is enough for you to protect him with all your might." Then please. ”
Teng Xiu paused and said with a smile: "I don't deserve the girl's request, it's all within the slave's business." ”
Ji Yu pulled Dabao to the inner room, gave him a big push, and fed him a pill from Xinzi Period.
Although it is called a poison avoidance pill, Xin Ziqi said that it can only target some common and slight poisons, and if there is another one like the last one, Daluo Immortal will not be able to save it.
"Don't eat indiscriminately, the water handed to you by strangers can't drink it no matter how thirsty it is, without Teng Xiu's hands."
Dabao nodded his head.
When Ji Yu bent down to help him tidy up his clothes, her dark eyes stared at her with an extremely serious expression.
"It's the same with Sister, don't talk to strangers."
Ji Yu couldn't help but smile and pinched his face: "I'll be dumb today." ”
Dabao went to look through the purse that Ji Yu was carrying, and the small porcelain bottle containing the pill just now was taken out of it.
"Do what?" Ji Yu handed him the purse.
Dabao took out the porcelain vase, shook it, heard the sound inside, and was slightly satisfied.
Uncorked the bottle, poured one in the palm of his hand, and handed it to Ji Yu's mouth.
He didn't speak, but he said it.
Ji Yu smiled, picked up the pill and took it on her neck.
Afraid of death like her, in fact, she had planned to feed Dabao one and take one before she entered the imperial city, but Dabao's concern still made her feel that my family had a younger brother growing up.
patted him on the head: "Let's go, come back tonight and tell you the story of the Son of Heaven." ”
"Who is the Son of Heaven?"
"He's a great character......
The atmosphere in the palace is even more lively than that of the New Year, and being in it almost makes people forget the smoke that rises around, and there is even a sense of prosperity and peace between drunken dreams and death.
The full moon banquet is set up in the Baohe Palace, the male and female guests are divided into two compartments, sitting through the screen screen, in the middle is the place of dance and music, Emperor Wande is at the top, and it is not Zheng Guifei who sits beside him, but the queen who has no sense of existence.
Banqueting, proclamation, feasting, music and dancing, and composing...... The complexity of etiquette makes people one head two big.
So much so that Ji Yu looked at the roasted venison, willow steamed sheep, chopsticks spring, and milk-stuffed fish in front of her...... There are also gold merchants and jade, wisps of golden phoenix crabs, puffer fish clams, four swallows and four ducks, all of which have completely lost their appetite.
However, there were only a few people present who had an appetite, and they were all symbolic moves.
The attention is not on the dancing girl, and they all seem to be staring at the top position.
