I don't know what Chu Mengxi and Chu Mengyao said that night, I only know that since that day, Chu Mengyao has become more dependent on Chu Mengxi, and Aunt Li also died suddenly that night, because she was an unfavored aunt, she didn't even have a funeral, and she chose a thin coffin to prepare for burial after looking at Chu Mengxi's face.

Such news brought new clues to Xia Yunsheng. Xia Yunshang silently put down the needle and thread in her hand, and looked at the moonlight map of the lotus pond embroidered in front of her and was stunned, what is it? What did you overlook?

"Did you watch a good play yesterday?"

"Well, it's exciting, it's about the story of Sun Wukong vs. the six-eared macaque."

"Talk about it, talk about it"

"Ahem, in other words, that day, the three of Tang Seng and his apprentice were walking between the mountains and wilderness, and Tang Seng felt thirsty and hungry......"

The chatter and laughter of the maids outside came slowly, and Xia Yunshang only felt startled in her heart, Sun Wukong and the six-eared macaque, yes.

Yesterday, the appearance in the Peony Hall should be Aunt Li, and Aunt Li's confirmed identity is Oiran Liu Ruyan, Yao Ji in the mouth of the leader of the Miaoyin Pavilion, it seems that Yao Ji and Chu Mengxi are very unmatched, and it can basically be ruled out that it is the biological mother and daughter, so where did the original Aunt Li go? He's dead?

Later, this Aunt Li seemed to be partial to Chu Mengyao, so ...... No wonder, no wonder Chu Mengxi didn't like Chu Mengyao, in his previous life, Chu Mengxi should have had some handle in Yao Ji's hands, but in this life, that handle was gone, and Chu Mengxi took action against Yao Ji, so what about Chu Mengyao?

Xia Yunshang thought about it and shook her head, although Chu Mengxi didn't like Chu Mengyao, but now Wan would not deal with her, not to mention that she had reached the age of marriage, even if she had just been promoted to the crime of harshly scolding her sister, she was also unwilling to ask for it.

Chu Mengyao is not smart enough, and her temperament is also a little impatient, thinking that Chu Mengxi's contribution in her previous life is not small. I wonder if the Mid-Autumn Festival will shine in a month's time? A cold smile appeared on the corner of Xia Yunsheng's mouth.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is one of the most important festivals of this dynasty, at the time of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the emperor will invite the ministers and their families to enjoy the bright moon together, and it is also the occasion for the celebrities to compete.

In his previous life, Xia Yunshang didn't love these, he himself had such a background in life, and if he wanted those names, he would suffer in vain, if he could, Xia Yunshang didn't even want to go to such an occasion, and he would be mentioned by the Queen Mother openly and secretly.

lost, and was dissatisfied with the Queen Mother. In recent years, I have never participated, and Chu Mengxi's original identity cannot participate, so I think it will be very exciting this year. And Xia Yuqi, Yunshang shook her head slightly, she is still in the hot filial piety now, so she naturally won't participate, but she doesn't know what her expression will be when she knows that her stepmother is the same age as her.

A month passed without hurry, and the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival finally arrived.

"Mother" early in the morning Xia Yunshang packed up, arrived at Qiongrui Pavilion early, only to see Xia Yunshang wearing a moon and white cloud brocade palace dress, with a butterfly jade buckle agate belt at the waist, and a delicate begonia blooming from the waist to spread to the chest, as if following the fragrance of flowers to attract the colorful butterflies on the shoulders slightly, the cloud temples are slightly off, and the begonia flowers are swaying with silk and rubies, and the gorgeous ones can't take their eyes off, only to feel that they are Yaochi flower fairies. Lianbu moved slightly, a pair of crested shoes, if the words appeared. Clever words and laughter are drunk without saying a word.

"Xiang'er is here, and it's early in the morning today." Shangguan Ruian said with a smile, I saw Shangguan Rui'an comb his hair and throw his hair in a bun, with a red gold peony hanging bead hairpin, a round southern pearl pasted in front of his forehead, with honey-colored crystal hairpins on both sides, and his face was like a snow ball, his appearance was extraordinary, and he did not choose heavy color, but he picked a light pink cloud brocade palace suit, with peonies dotted and floating, and his waist was tied with a white jade belt with peony petals, and his waist was slender, so that he looked like a girl who had not left the cabinet.

"My mother is so beautiful." Xia Yunshang happily walked up to the eldest princess and said

"You may have a sweet mouth." Shangguan Ruian said with a smile, looking at it carefully, he only felt that Xia Yunshang looked very similar to the eldest princess, but his demeanor and temperament were much different.

"Hey, where's Daddy?"

"Your father invited grandpa to go, and he will be back soon."

"An'er? Is Shang'er coming? How rare is it to get up so early today? Xia Haoyu quipped

"Daddy, I don't usually wake up very late, and they make fun of me." Xia Yunshang muttered.

"Okay, okay, it's Daddy who said it wrong." Xia Haoyu smiled and waved his hand and said, "Father is ready, you will be accompanied by Xuan'er to the front hall, let's go too, shall we?" ”

"Okay," Shangguan Ruian said softly

When it was time to set off, the group of people divided the carriage and rushed to the palace outside the noon gate, because of the special identity and did not check the palace gate, and entered the palace gate without taking the original carriage, changed the blue glazed carriage in the palace and walked slowly, and entered the Taihe Gate and changed the soft sedan chair with a flower tent.

After walking for half an hour, the eldest princess and Xia Yunshang exchanged two steps and entered the East Palace, while Old Lady Xia, Xia Haoyu, and Xia Yunxuan went to the side hall of the Linde Hall to chat with their colleagues and wait. There is no need to talk about it in detail, the queen mother has instructed a little, and she is even more tempted to have a favorite prince in Yunshang, but she was also bypassed by Yunshang with haha, just waiting for a banquet.

Yunshang sometimes feels that the Queen Mother is really tired, while feeling sorry for her mother and loving herself, on the other hand, she has to plan for the so-called solid favor and the so-called glory.

Xia Yunshang carefully looked at the Queen Mother in a dark red nine-tailed phoenix auspicious suit, the Queen Mother thought that she was almost sixty, but she looked much younger, a pair of phoenix eyes shimmering, calm and wise, black hair like smoke, a pair of tired peacocks dotted with emerald hairpins, it looked even more majestic and dignified, I think the Queen Mother must have been a beauty when she was young. Just when Yunshang was distracted, the chamberlain came to ask for instructions: "Slave see the Queen Mother, Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess, Her Royal Highness the Princess, the time for the emperor to order the banquet is approaching, and I respectfully invite the Queen Mother to drive." ”

"Well, An'er, Shang'er, the hour is almost over, let's go over now."

"Yes"

The group took three planes on foot and went to the Lin De Palace. At this time, the Lin De Hall has been properly placed, just waiting for the Queen Mother, the Emperor and others. When I walked to the main hall of the Linde Palace, I saw that the emperor was waiting, and the queen mother was relieved to step down and said with a smile: "When did the emperor arrive?" Why don't you go in? ”

"Before the queen mother arrived, I waited for it, thinking that the queen mother would definitely talk to the royal sister and Shang'er, so I didn't bother."

"I've seen Uncle Huang." Xia Yunshang stepped forward to see him

"It's going to be lively again today, so you should give it a good review."

"Yes," Xia Yunshang responded with a smile

"This should be said to An'er, in the heart of the mourning family, An'er is the best in this palace. Xiang'er is a lazy person."

"Imperial grandmother~" Xia Yunshang said coquettishly

"Hmm" The emperor looked at Shangguan Ruian on the side, and said in a deep voice: "An'er's literary and dancing skills are incomparable, but I miss it very much." Shangguan Ruian lowered his eyes and said with a smile: "The queen mother and the imperial brother have won the award." ”

"Let's go in, how about An'er sit with the mourning family?"

"Yes"

"Grandmother, what about me?" Xia Yunshang asked playfully

"You, go find your sister Jinrou."

"Hey, the imperial grandmother won't keep me, I'm so sad." After speaking, he made a heart-warming gesture, causing the three of them to laugh and shake their heads. After entering the main hall, the queen has sat on the right side of the main table, Bai Guifei, Duan Fei, and Concubine Li sit at the second table, and the salute is settled, the queen mother sits on the main seat, Shangguan Yu sits on the right hand, and Shangguan Ruian sits on the left hand side. Xia Yunshang sat down and started with Shangguan Ruian.

"Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and we invite all of you to share the festival and celebrate the reunion." Shangguan Yu raised his glass and said

"Thank Emperor Longen!"

After drinking, the palace was happy, the queen looked at the queen mother, and when she saw the queen mother nodding, she said, "According to the practice of every year, this year is not exempt from vulgarity" said and clapped her hands, and the three palace women responded to the call with three trays in their hands and walked to the center of the hall, and slowly lifted the red cloth on the three trays.

I saw an enamel mahogany box on the first tray, and when I opened the box, a night pearl the size of a child's fist lay on the black satin, exuding a faint light; On the second tray was a pair of ice crystal beads, which looked good in the light of the temple; In the third tray is a glass jade flute, which is like water.

Seeing such an object, the women in the palace all loved it, and it was rare to single out any of them, let alone three things in front of them.

The queen looked at everyone's reactions with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "There is another one, it's over there" As soon as the words fell, a curtain on the right side of the main hall slowly opened, only to see a man in red came into view, and his beautiful face was more demonic under the backdrop of the red clothes, a pair of eyebrows on his fair face drooped slightly, eyelashes flashed like saucer wings, thin lips rose slightly, and the jade was holding a brush in his hand, just looking at the hall in a spare time.

"Ye Zhen" everyone is suffocated, Ye Zhen belongs to an alternative, but he was born in a family but he looks like a gentleman, but there is no one to compare with Danqing in one hand, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a daughter. "The final prize is a beautiful picture painted by Ye Sangongzi himself," the queen's voice sounded slowly. Although all the daughters are from the palace and their status is not low, these four objects are not easy for ordinary people to have, not to mention, it is also glorious enough to win the ranking in the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.

The Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction after seeing the prizes and said: "This is all a precious boutique, don't let down the queen's wishes." Xiang'er,"

"Yes, Grandmother Huang"

"I can't be lazy this year, so let's participate too."

Xia Yunshang sighed slightly in her heart, she couldn't escape. I can only say no: "Yes, Yunshang should do her best." Looking up and sweeping the side of the prince, I saw Shangguan Jinrong looking at him with a gentle face, Yunshang smiled and skipped it, and when he retracted his eyes, he touched Shangguan Jinqi's cold gaze, and there was worry in that gaze?

Xia Yunshang frowned slightly, since the day of Drunken Yuexuan, Yunshang couldn't help but be wary of this Third Emperor Brother.

Now that my uncle is in his prime, the battle between the prince and the prince is still just a symptom. Yunshang pursed her lips helplessly, looking at the people in the palace, she felt that she would be very tired today.

"Please invite the queen mother to preside" The queen saw that the effect was achieved, and she did not take credit, and said respectfully to the queen mother.

The Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction and said, "Today, all the sons and daughters are here, how about the mourning family think that they will change their methods this year?" ”
