Chapter 160: The Royal Family Banquet
"Well, I heard that the prince just woke up this morning and has been in a coma for three days!" Er Qing replied.
"God bless!" Bai Luoyun said, "This time your father and I were able to come out of the enemy camp alive, it is also a kind of creation, perhaps it is a deliberate arrangement of God, so that we can see Xiyue again in our lifetime!" Bai Luoyun cried, "I just don't know if she will forgive me and your father!" ”
Er Qing was a little distressed when she heard this, her father and mother had made so much effort and risked their lives just to see Shang Xiyue, who were her parents in the end!
"Daddy, don't worry, Xiyue is a kind person, she will be very happy to see you! If she knew that you had gone through so much danger that you almost lost your life, she would have felt guilty! "Er Qing understands Xiyue.
The family said that they had arrived at the Yanwang Mansion.
Steward Qin led them to see King Yan first.
In Xiangruixuan, Ge Yuntai and Bai Luoyun met King Yan, and he looked pretty good!
"The second elder is here!" King Yan was full of smiles.
"See King Yan, Princess Yan!" Ge Yuntai and Bai Luoyun saluted King Yan and Concubine Shu.
"Hurry up, please!" Concubine Shu hurriedly went to help the second elder.
Although this Ge Yuntai is said to have gray temples, there is a heroic spirit in his eyes, kind eyebrows and kind eyes, and he must have been a handsome young man when he was young.
Needless to say, this Bai Luoyun is a, but the charm still exists, and she is also a beauty embryo.
Concubine Shu couldn't help but sigh, no wonder they gave birth to such a beautiful Concubine An?
"Second elder, I'm really sorry, I originally planned to take the second elder back to the house to live for a while as soon as the battle was over, but I didn't expect to be injured, and it has been delayed until today, how lazy! I hope the second elder will not be surprised! King Yan felt that he had neglected the second elder, and he was a little embarrassed.
"Lord Wang, don't say that, you are tormenting the old man when you say that!" Ge Yuntai hurriedly got up and bowed.
"Your second elder is Concubine An's father and mother, and you are the king's parents-in-law, and this king should be filial!" King Yan said humbly.
When Ge Yuntai saw that the prince treated them with such courtesy, he knew that he would not be wrong with Xiyue!
"It's getting dark now, I've already prepared a family banquet, and today I'm going to pick up the wind and wash the dust for your second elder, and by the way, I want to thank Master Ma for his great kindness this time!" Concubine Shu said with a smile.
"What a mess for you!" Bai Luoyun was really embarrassed.
"Where? Then I'll go out and get ready, and you'll have dinner with the prince in a while!" Concubine Shu said and withdrew from Xiangruixuan.
In the hall, it is ready and waiting for the food to be served.
The scale of today's family banquet is relatively large, and the concubine invited all the ladies from each room.
This family banquet is not only for Concubine An's father and mother to pick up the wind and wash the dust, but also to celebrate the recovery of King Yan!
Concubine Shu also specially added singing and dancing to the family banquet.
Everything was ready, and the ladies of the house also came to the banquet one after another.
Although most of them were reluctant to come, after all, this banquet focused on Concubine An's family.
Then Concubine An really has face, isn't her family here? There is even a banquet! This is a treatment that no one in this Yanwang Mansion has ever had!
"Sister Ruifei, you said that this is also a family, why are these treatments so different?" Li Ji and Concubine Rui sat in their seats and kept complaining.
Li Ji couldn't help but think that last year, her father and mother in Goryeo came to see her, and King Yan excused herself that she was busy and didn't show up for a few days, and her father and mother were still received by herself. Thinking about it, this father and mother are also people with heads and faces in Goryeo, why is this King Yan so indifferent?
And although this concubine's father used to be the general of the imperial court, he has already returned to his hometown! It's just an outdated person, is it worthy of such hospitality from this prince?
Li Ji and the ladies were indignant in their hearts, but because it was King Yan who set up a banquet and Concubine Shu was invited, no one dared to shirk it.
"Sister, it's not right for you to say that, what is our family? Even if Concubine An's father and mother are out of breath, don't they still have a brother who is a concubine, I heard that after this Tatar war, if it weren't for this brother, maybe our Beiping would have fallen a long time ago! Therefore, if this prince does not entertain them, who will he entertain? When Concubine Rui was cold, she felt uncomfortable in her heart.
Xiyue knew that King Yan was going to set up a dinner party to wash the dust for his family, and since the afternoon, she has been restless.
When the dinner was approaching, Concubine Shu sent a maid to invite her.
Bi Luo dressed up Xiyue, "Miss, it's the lord and the lady who came to see you today, you have to dress up decently, let them know that you are doing well in this mansion, so that they can rest assured!" ”
Xiyue held Biluo's hand, "Biluo, I'm really a little nervous, you said that I would think of them on weekdays, and even see them in my dreams, but now I really want to see them, but my heart is uneasy!" ”
"Miss, don't be so nervous, they are your biological parents, why should you be nervous? Let the previous grievances disappear for him! You said that you are far away in Beiping City, and they are in Nanjing City, it will be even more difficult to meet in the future, and the two of them are also old, so they really see each other less......" Bi Luo chattered and enlightened Xiyue, she knew that their young lady still wanted to see them in her heart.
"Got it, Bilo, I got it!" Shizuki felt the urge to cry.
Daddy, Er Qing! She's going to see them soon!
Dressed up, accompanied by Biluo, Xiyue arrived in the hall.
The hall was already very lively, and the ladies were already seated.
When Mrs. Ning saw that Xiyue was coming, she hurriedly waved her hand.
Shigetsu walked towards her seat.
Today, she changed into a pink robe, and only a hairpin was pinned to her simple bun, but the hairpin was also covered with pink pearls, and even her earrings were pink pearls.
Pink and delicate, it is very conspicuous.
Xiyue has always dressed up like this, although it looks ordinary, but it shows an extraordinary temperament.
She took a light step and walked towards Mrs. Ning.
Passing by Concubine Rui's seat, Concubine Rui didn't raise her head, since her personal maid was executed by King Yan, she blamed all this on Concubine An, and hated her in her heart, so she didn't even want to see her.
It was Li Ji, who took a closer look at Concubine An's outfit, compared with them, Concubine An was too plain, but she made no secret of her difference, and Li Ji was a little jealous.
Xiyue walked straight up to Mrs. Ning and sat down.
At this time, the families of King Yan and Xiyue had not yet taken their seats.
"Sister, you're so beautiful today!" Mrs. Ning admired.
"My sister has won the prize! By the way, how is your brother and sister-in-law? Xiyue asked in a low voice, seeing Mrs. Ning running out of Mingyue Pavilion in a hurry this morning, she never saw her again, and she didn't bother to ask her.
Mrs. Ning sighed, "Don't mention them in such a peaceful scene!" Rain on someone's parade! Mrs. Ning pursed her lips.
Xiyue knew that what she said was not what she said in her heart, this morning, when she heard that her brother and sister-in-law might be executed by King Yan, she saw the worry and unbearability in Mrs. Ning's eyes, she couldn't deceive Xiyue's eyes.
Mrs. Ning said: "I went to beg the prince, and the prince promised to spare them from dying!" That's the limit of what I can do for them! ”
"Okay, okay, then don't talk about your brother and sister-in-law, it's okay!" Shizuki suddenly felt a little nervous.
Xiyue looked around, today's family banquet was very formal, and it could be seen that she had put her heart into it!
"Sister An, I really envy you, my family will have such a courtesy when I come!" Mrs. Ning couldn't help but say.
While speaking, I only heard Steward Qin shouting: "The prince has arrived!" ”
At the banquet that was originally chattering, there was a sudden silence.
Everyone held their breath and waited for King Yan to appear.
After King Yan woke up, the ladies hadn't seen him yet.
Today's King Yan wore a beige robe trimmed with gold trim, a crown of white jade hair on his head, and tied his hair up.
It looks very spiritual.
King Yan was followed by Concubine Shu, Ge Yuntai, Bai Luoyun and Er Qing.
As soon as Er Qing came out, he was also embarrassed.
"This must be the general sent by the imperial court, so young and very handsome!" The people below whispered.
Shigetsuki's heart thumped open.
Erqing! Parents!
Ge Yuntai and Bai Luoyun saw the Xiyue in the banquet at a glance.
She looks good.
Xiyue saw her father and mother, and they didn't see her for months, and they seemed to be a lot older.
Er Qing also saw Xiyue, she was still so moving, people didn't want to take their eyes off at a glance.
King Yan and Concubine Shu sat on the main seat.
Er Qing and Ge Yuntai sat on the side seats next to them.
"Ladies, please come to the banquet today, one is because I have just recovered from a serious illness and want to celebrate, and the other is because the family of Concubine An happened to come, and the king wanted to set up a banquet for them, this concubine's brother is also my niece and son-in-law, this time it has made a contribution to our Beiping, if he hadn't arrived in time with the reinforcements of the imperial court, I'm afraid that this king will not appear here again today, I'm afraid that my entire Beiping will fall under the Tatar iron horse! Therefore, this king feels that this family banquet is very necessary! I hope you don't hold back and have a good drink! King Yan made an opening remark.
The atmosphere below began to liven up, and everyone watched singing and dancing and chatted with each other.
"Master Poma, parents-in-law, this king toasts you with a glass of wine!" King Yan raised his glass to them.
Ge Yuntai and Bai Luoyun, Er Qing hurriedly raised their wine glasses in response.
During the banquet, the singing and dancing leveled down, and the atmosphere was harmonious, but Xiyue couldn't eat a bite, she kept looking at her father and mother, and she had a lot of thoughts in her heart!
She didn't expect that they would come from thousands of miles to see her like this, and she wouldn't have thought that they would be much older after not seeing her for months!
