The next day, the seventh day of the seventh month.

Zhao Kehan's canonization ceremony was held in the imperial garden, early in the morning, after asking the queen mother to say goodbye, Shang Kelan was busy, fortunately there were Yuan Ge and Gardenia by her side to help her, so that the palace banquet was prepared satisfactorily.

With the lotus pond as the dividing line, the male guest houses on the left and the female guest lives on the right.

Zhao Kehan was wearing a translucent tulle pleated skirt in the color of Haitian Xia, and a pale pink embroidered mandarin duck inlaid with red silk thread paddy field clothes, noble, atmospheric but feminine; And she wears a delicately crafted gold step on her head, adding color to her already moving appearance.

Today she is undoubtedly the most dazzling pearl of the banquet.

The queen mother and the queen were also dressed in black and bright yellow palace clothes, sitting at the head of everyone, Zhao Kehan came to the two of them and saluted the two: "The concubines see the queen mother and the queen mother!" ”

Concubines?

Shang Kelan, who was located below the queen, heard this, and her eyes suddenly flashed with astonishment: What's the matter? Isn't this the canonization ceremony of the county lord?

Immediately, her eyes turned to Zhao Kehan's clothes, but she found that whether it was a bun, jewelry, or clothes and accessories, Zhao Kehan's appearance today was based on the canonization regulations of the concubines in the palace!

But she ordered someone to send the clothes and jewelry to Zhao Kehan in Cining Palace, all of which should have been worn and used when the county lord was canonized, could it be that Zhao Kehan did something in this canonization ceremony? Or ...... The Queen Mother didn't give up the idea of canonizing Zhao Kehan as a concubine at all?

For a moment, Shang Kelan restrained the look of surprise on her face, and turned her gaze to the Queen Mother and the Empress.

But I saw that the two of them also showed a look of surprise on their faces, as if they didn't know at all.

The two of them forgot to ask Zhao Kehan to be polite, and Zhao Kehan kept curtsied, she lowered her eyebrows and lowered her head, her red lips were slightly raised, and she didn't seem to complain.

At this time, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites wore a scarlet official uniform, held a holy decree, came to Zhao Kehan, and read loudly: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said, Zhao Kehan, the widow of General Weiyuan, is virtuous and virtuous. ”

The canonization ceremony of the county lord of Jinyang turned out to be the canonization ceremony of the concubine from the second grade!

Even Jin Yantang, who was sitting on the side, had his pupils shrinking sharply, and he cast a surprised look at Zhao Kehan, but in just an instant, he returned to his original state, and after glancing at Zhao Kehan coldly, he turned around and left the palace banquet mercilessly.

Zhao Kehan's eyes flashed slightly, and he took the holy decree handed over by the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and thanked him loudly: "Concubine Xie Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!" ”

General Weiyuan, who died in battle more than ten years ago, is the mother of the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother said in front of everyone that Zhao Kehan is her distant niece, but she didn't expect that Zhao Kehan would now enter the harem in this identity and way!

Almost all the palace concubines looked at Zhao Kehan in shock, and they were speechless.

After the waiter of the Ministry of Rites completed his duties, he took Zhao Kehan to participate in the sacrifice, and the waiter chanted music, and the sound of silk and bamboo was endless.

The visiting guests didn't know, and they all laughed and talked about Zhao Kehan, now she has changed a little from her appearance three years ago, and her temperament is more calm and introverted, for a while, it is normal for everyone not to recognize her as the princess of the previous dynasty.

Seeing that after Jin Yantang listened to the holy decree, he left the palace banquet without saying a word, and the queen mother's face sank slightly, and she looked at Zhao Kehan, who was kneeling down on the sacrificial platform not far away, and her eyes became obscure.

The queen wisely didn't choose to ask more, but sat in her position dignifiedly, and took a sip of the fragrant tea in her hand.

Concubine Hua looked at Shang Kelan with a smile on her face and said, "Concubine Chen, you are the person in charge of this palace banquet today, this palace is a little strange, why is the scale of this palace banquet you held not like the scene that a concubine should have?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Shang Kelan immediately reacted, it seems that Concubine Hua already knew that at today's canonization ceremony, Zhao Kehan will be named a concubine!

A look of doubt flashed in her eyes: But strangely, judging from the expressions of the Queen Mother and the Queen just now, they didn't know that the canonization ceremony had changed.

Could it be that this is at the behest of His Majesty? In fact, he didn't forget the princess of the former dynasty who had protected his life?

Although there were many thoughts in her heart, on her face, Shang Kelan smiled at Concubine Hua and said, "Is it the wrong palace banquet in this palace, or some people have passed false news to this palace, I'm afraid Concubine Hua's sister knows better than this palace, right?" ”

"You!"

Concubine Hua was irritated by her salty tone, stretched out her hand and pointed at her, and was about to speak, but she didn't know what she thought, Concubine Hua put down her hand lightly, and said to Shang Kelan with a smile: "Forget it, this palace doesn't care about you today, anyway, Concubine Chen, you have monopolized the holy favor for so long, and it's time for Your Majesty to get the rain and dew, right?" ”

After saying these words meaninglessly, Concubine Hua glanced at Zhao Kehan's direction.

Gardenia stood beside Shang Kelan, and when she heard this, she shook her hand tightly, but did not speak.

Shang Kelan had something in her heart, so she had no intention of feasting guests, and a canonization ceremony began at the time of the year, and the palace banquet ended at the time of the unitary.

After seeing off the Queen Mother, the Empress, and a group of palace concubines and guests, Shang Kelan stayed in the Imperial Garden to clean up the mess.

Seeing that she was tired, Gardenia hurriedly brought her a cup of tea, and said worriedly: "Niangniang, you can rest for a while." ”

Shang Kelan rubbed her eyebrows, and said a little tiredly: "No, there are too many strange things about today's canonization, the current situation is unknown, the palace can't act rashly, you can only preside over the palace banquet with your head, you can quickly deal with the things here with the palace, and after returning to the palace, the palace will change your clothes and go to see Your Majesty." ”

Gardenia felt sorry for her, so she said: "Niangniang go back to bathe and change clothes first, there are slaves and maids here, don't worry." ”

Seeing that the caring color in Gardenia's eyes was very strong, Shang Kelan reluctantly smiled at her and said, "Okay, then you come back early." ”

She was going to His Majesty to find out why she had written the canonization decree without her.

If it weren't for her quick improvisation today, and ordered someone to temporarily change the dishes on the palace banquet, I'm afraid the palace banquet would not have been able to go smoothly at all!

The sun is thin, the finch returns to the nest, and the elegant palace is inside.

In the cramped room, Forp slowly woke up.

Zhiqiu withdrew the silver needle from his arm and smiled at him: "Father-in-law Fu, are you awake?" You were found fainting on the side of the road and were injured, I don't know if you remember who injured you? ”

Fupu subconsciously touched his face, and suddenly touched the small bag that was swollen on his face.

Suddenly, he gasped and bared his teeth and grinned, "Hiss! Miss Zhiqiu, thank you for healing the Sprinkle family, but how long has the Sprinkle family fainted? I have something important to report to Concubine Chen! ”

As he spoke, his expression became a little anxious.

Zhiqiu was a little surprised by his emotional changes, in order to stabilize his mood, she hurriedly poured a cup of tea for Fu Pu and said, "Don't worry, Father-in-law Fu, you drink a cup of tea to moisten your throat first." ”

After Fupu took the teacup, Zhiqiu said: "You have passed out for a day and a night, and today is the seventh day of the seventh month." ”
