Chapter 14: The Character of the Ox Breaker
is also a man, and men have a strong intuition for men, Jian Bosheng always feels that Long Yunyan seems to be a little interested in his Ming'er? That's right, that's the feeling, although I can't see his expression, but his last sentence is not casually, but really interested, inexplicably accompanied by a hint of interest.
Jian Bosheng shuddered, grabbed the Jian Ming lamp and said, "The previous matter has been resolved, don't go to King Yan's mansion to treat King Yan in the future." Also, try not to touch King Yan. ”
Jian Mingdeng thought that his father was the same as he thought, so he nodded. Jian Bosheng saw that Jian Mingdeng agreed so happily, and he was also relieved.
Every group of people who came to the banquet were led by a little eunuch in the palace to the banquet palace "Yuhua Palace". There is a short distance in Yuhua Palace, and along the way, Jian Bosheng and the little eunuch casually asked each other, and the topic was nothing more than who had arrived, whether the protagonist of the Cheng family had arrived tonight, and so on, in fact, it was just to dissolve the dull atmosphere on the road. Jian Minglan pretended to be a lady of everyone, lowered his head, didn't say a word, and just followed quietly behind.
I think that my father-in-law has also seen Jian Minglan, and he peeked at her several times along the way, with doubts and doubts on his face. In the past, Jian Minglan was a bit high-profile, and the Queen Mother valued her very much, and her style in the palace was almost the same as that of a princess. It is precisely because of the Queen Mother that the palace people will give some face when they see her, and ordinary guards and palace maids will inevitably be a little flattering, and they will be used to bowing low and being small, coaxing the concise lights to flutter.
The current Jian Ming Lantern is naturally different from the previous Jian Ming Lantern, and it is too quiet along the way, so it is no wonder that the Inner Chamber of Medicine has such an expression.
Jian Ming Lantern is in her eyes, she doesn't care what the Jian Ming Lantern used to be, she only does herself, what if others have more suspicions, who would have thought that the soul in this body has been replaced?
The high palace, the green glazed tile roof, and the afterimage of the sunset are about to fall. Under the corner porch of the palace are hung palace lamps, cobblestone paths, and lighthouses are staggered on both sides of the shade flowers and plants. The stout wick in the lighthouse was burning brightly, and the whole palace was not affected by the setting sun in the slightest, and it was still as bright as day.
Towering palaces, jade platforms, bridges, clear water murmuring, pavilions of different heights, rockery flower beds, here is like a castle, it is another world entirely.
It feels like it hasn't been long enough, but it's actually past half of the incense time. There are four guards standing in front of the gate of Yuhua Palace, standing still, like stone carvings. In addition, there are several palace maids and maids who greet the guests who come and go to the banquet under the leadership of the steward's father-in-law.
The father-in-law who led the way brought Jian Bosheng and Jian Minglan to the door of Yuhua Palace, made a handover, and then bowed and retreated, and the attendant who took over came up to greet him.
As soon as Jian Bosheng appeared, he was surrounded by several colleagues, he said a few perfunctory words, ignored their warm invitations, and led the Jian Ming lamp into the main hall.
Everyone in the hall greeted each other, although everyone tried to control the volume as much as possible, but the large number of people also created a lot of noise. Jian Bosheng's appearance could not avoid attracting attention, he still gave up a few polite words, and sat down with the concise lamp in order of position.
He is the head of the hundred officials, and he is the closest place to sit under the high position. The hour was almost up, and everyone was seated. Above the high position is naturally the position of the emperor and several important concubines who accompany him, on the left hand side are arranged in order of official rank, and on the right side are the royal family relatives in order.
When several princes appeared, everyone stood up and saluted, and when Jian Minglan looked up, he met Long Yifei's eyes, and with just one glance, she staggered her gaze.
Long Yifei is the eldest son of the emperor, but there are still two positions left in front of him, and under him is the second prince Long Yiqin, who glanced at the Jian Ming Lantern with great interest, and then stretched his neck to talk to Long Yifei, "Brother Emperor, Brother Foolish, look at this Bright Lantern, the county lord doesn't seem to be as infatuated with the Great Brother as before?" It's not like you're making things difficult and making them angry, right? ”
Long Yifei glanced at the flat smile on his face lightly, and unceremoniously replied, "If you're curious, why don't you ask her yourself?" ”
Long Yiqin waved his hand in a daze, "Forget it." ”
What are you kidding, he won't be idle and have nothing to do to mess with that girl.
Everyone was still talking to each other, and a chant was singing outside the door: "Your Majesty has arrived~"
Everyone was immediately silenced, stood up from their seats, lowered their heads, put their hands in front of their foreheads, and said in unison: "Welcome Your Majesty." ”
At this time, you can't look up, and only the corner of your eye can see a bright yellow flying under your eyes, and then there are other colorful clothes flying over.
The Emperor's footsteps were steady, and he strode forward. Suddenly, a loud voice came from above his head: "The secretaries are seated." ”
Everyone once again said "Thank you, Your Majesty" in unison, and then straightened up and slowly sat down.
Emperor Long Jinyan was dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, wearing a gold crown, and he did not have the Nine Dragon Pearl crown he wore when he was in the previous dynasty, but he felt a little more close to the people.
With a smile on his face, he lacks the majesty of his daily life, even so, but the imperial majesty that he has been accustomed to over the years is naturally revealed, and people will never forget his identity all the time.
"The banquet tonight is to catch the wind and wash the dust for the Cheng family, and the secretaries will entertain the Cheng family master for me, so you don't have to pay too much attention to those red tapes."
There were people sitting in the two seats in front of Long Yifei. The first position is Yan Wang Long Yunyan, and the second position is Cheng Wenchu. He was dressed in a white robe, and his eyebrows were smiling, and he was exceptionally soft. Long Jinyan mentioned him, he stood up politely, turned to Long Jinyan, and arched his hand and said, "His Majesty the Dragon Lord is gracious, and Wen Chu is terrified. ”
Long Jinyan smiled and waved his hand, the two of them were polite, and he beckoned Cheng Wenchu to sit down. At this time, a line of palace maids entered outside the door, everyone held trays in their hands, and each tray had a piece of wine and delicacies.
When the wine and delicacies were put on the table, Long Jinyan raised his wine glass first, and everyone got up to greet them, and the monarchs and ministers drank together. The emperor started at the beginning, followed by everyone's own activities, and palace music and dance, for a while, the atmosphere was also cheerful.
No matter what the purpose of the prince and the courtiers was, everyone rushed to toast like Cheng Wenchu. Every time someone toasts, he just tastes it.
After all, it is face-to-face, and as soon as you look up, you can see that Cheng Wenchu tonight is as amazing, but the difference is that there are two attendants similar to robots standing behind him. The wine and delicacies in front of Cheng Wenchu, every time they served them, they would test the poison with a silver needle.
Jian Minglan couldn't help but glance at Long Jinyan in the high position. He invited people to dinner, and they also brought someone to test the poison, wouldn't Long Jinyan feel embarrassed? No, Long Jinyan seemed to be invisible, drinking with the favorite concubine sitting beside him, and the people under the high position seemed to have been forgotten by him.
Jian Minglan couldn't help but glance at Cheng Wenchu and the two people behind him, their faces were as usual, as if they were used to such scenes.
Jian Mingdeng had to sigh, this Cheng Wenchu is really a super bull character. The person who can test poison with a silver needle at the banquet of the emperor of the people, he is definitely the first person she has ever seen.
