Chapter 14: Crab Feast

Yan Yue cried so darkly, she spent so much energy preparing to be hurt by his words. It wasn't until a long time later that I found that Mama Zhuang had been standing on the side. Seeing that Yan Yue stopped crying, he hurriedly handed the tea to Yan Yue's hand. While speaking earnestly, he said: "It has been a short time since Niangniang entered the palace, and now she should know that everything in this palace has to be regulated." The emperor in the palace is the sky, and don't force what the emperor doesn't like or don't want. Besides, Niangniang was canonized, and now the most important thing is to have a dragon heir, and then the emperor will be happy in his heart, and Niangniang's wish is not avoidable. It is still long, and the mother is in a hurry. "

Yan Yue listened quietly, whether it was Murong Yan or Mama Zhuang, as well as all the slave girls in Birong Xuan, they must have thought that their actions tonight were to be queens. Don't you know that you think more than being a queen? But Mama Zhuang is right, she has decided to stay for this man, this is still a long time, and she can't be in a hurry. If you want to be the only woman around Murong Yan, you really have to put some effort into it.

After sorting out her thoughts and emotions, Yan Yue ushered in a new day with a new attitude. I got up early in the morning, but there was an invitation from the palace people to Wan Guifei, because of the fresh crabs that Yangshui County paid tribute to yesterday, so there was a crab tasting banquet in the palace at noon today. Yan Yue had no interest in those harem women, but she had a certain interest in crabs. I still remember that in the last life, when it was crab season, the family would always get together happily and gossip about crabs. At this time, Silai still felt that the strong family affection was close to him.

Yan Yue didn't want to participate, even if she wanted to eat crabs, she only needed to send some from the imperial dining room, but later she heard from Mama Zhuang that there was no banquet arranged in the palace in the Mid-Autumn Festival this year because of the queen's affairs, and Murong Yan would definitely participate in this banquet, so Yan Yue went to participate without thinking! Yan Yue can imagine that a room full of heavenly fragrance and national beauty, and trying their best to tempt that man, is that under the constraints of the law, there are dozens of men in modern society who cheat. What's more, those women are all his nominal women, in case he is moved and impulsive, won't the situation become more and more difficult to control.

The crab feast was placed in Wan Guifei's Xiyue Palace, and Yan Yue couldn't help but wonder if Wan Guifei had done it intentionally. Last time, she wanted to invite favor by punishing Mama Huang by Yan Yue, but it was destroyed by Yan Yue's appearance. This time, she didn't want to take the opportunity to get Mu Keyan drunk, so let's get drunk and force the bow. Thinking like this, Yan Yue was a little anxious. On the way to taste crabs, I went to the imperial pharmacy to get some medicines, and then I suddenly rushed to Xiyue Palace.

Far away, I heard the sound of laughter, and when I entered the hall, I found a room of warblers and warblers. Absentmindedly returning the salute, Yan Yue ignored the eyes of those women who were surprised, disdainful, or jealous. Only Wang Shuyuan (the former Wang Beauty, the Shuxi who she canonized with Yan Yue) is still a little warm, and the smiles on other women's faces are seven or eight points false.

However, Yan Qin really deliberately dressed up today, her body was full of purple and red, her waist was not covered with a close dress, her face was peachy, and her eyes were like autumn water. The most striking thing is that she has a pink goose hairpin behind her ear, which makes her stand out when her posture is not eye-catching. The purpose is self-evident. And the other women believe that they have also worked hard for today's feast. Yan Yue suddenly had an illusion, as if the prosperity in front of her was not the palace compound, but a brothel competing to welcome customers, and all the women were scratching their heads and making gestures just for the only prostitute emperor, Murong Yan.

Yan Yue suddenly felt the urge to destroy all this, and the fragrance that suddenly rushed straight into her nose made Yan Yue's attention diverted. First of all, there are all kinds of crabs, steamed, fried, stir-fried, etc., and there are crab roe buns, crab roe dumplings, etc., all of which are red and bright in color, and the crab fragrance is attractive. What made Yan Yue even more amazed was that everyone had several tools in front of them, including tripods, sticks, hammers, etc., which were so elegant that they must have been prepared for eating crabs.

The fragrance is so pleasant, Yan Yue can't help but want to praise it, the people who organized and carried out this activity, no matter what its original purpose was, but the actual effect was very good. Murong Yan appeared at the right time, he came early, how many entangled eyes would he deal with, and if he was late, how many resentful thoughts he would face. And at this time, when everyone wanted to eat, he appeared, not sooner or later.

Yan Yue looked at him carefully, fortunately, this man was dressed as usual. Even so, from the time he entered the hall to the time he sat down, I don't know how many people's eyes were locked on him, eager to hold him in his arms and bite him a few times. And Murong Yan's imminent silence and calmness, with a faint and distant face, and the warbler Yanyan who swept over the room with his eyes did not stay on anyone's body, which made those beauties who were eager to be responded to all their hearts sad, and also made Yan Yue feel a lot more at ease. After all, this Murong Yan is not a bad woman, and among the people at this table, there is only one person who has been married to him--- Wang Shuyuan.

Now there is a long table, each of the four concubines accompanies one side, and the rest are Shuyuan beauties and so on. According to Yan Yue's position, she was lined up on the side, hiding in the crowd, so that Yan Yue could taste it with peace of mind first. Although the tools in the hand are not familiar, the delicious people take them over and use them skillfully, padding, knocking, splitting, forking, cutting, clipping, picking, Yan Yue eats easily and comfortably.

"The autumn breeze is cool, the osmanthus is fragrant, and the chela is chanted, and the wine is sipped. How about the concubine suggesting that we chant a poem on the theme of this crab? "Wan Guifei's ingenious proposal arrived. I only heard Yan Yue's heart, eating a crab and chanting a poem, like myself who can't chant poetry again, I have indigestion! Yan Yue couldn't help but think of the incident of Qingtian Pavilion last time, wasn't Yan Qin just unable to make poetry at that time? What about this time? Thinking of this, Yan Yue's eyes couldn't help but aim at Yan Qin, but Yan Qin was looking up at Murong Yan, with a look of anticipation and eagerness.

Yan Yue couldn't help but smile bitterly, it must have been because of the last temporary cramming, this time Yan Qin must have prepared in advance. Sure enough, since Wan Guifei began, there were poems very quickly. The four noble concubines are really talented, and each of them chanted a song with a lofty artistic conception and vivid and exquisite words in this moment. If she hadn't known that these women were all talented, Yan Yue would have wondered if they would have cheated in advance.

Fortunately, the poem is not written by seat, but by whoever has it. So after the four noble concubines, Yan Qin was the first to say it, and won everyone's praise, even Murong Yan couldn't help but take a second look. And that Wang Meiren was also the first to do it at the end, and the sentences and words could only be regarded as modest, which made Yan Yue have to admit that this Wang Meiren was very low-key. Just said it one by one, and in the end, Yan Yue was the only one at the table who didn't compose a poem, and still lay on the table and ate the crab as before.

"Yan Shuyuan got together with her sisters for the first time, and she also made a song and this scene, so that the sisters could learn from each other." Wan Guifei's gentle smile reminded Yan Yue of a wolf in sheep's clothing, this woman's gentleness in front of Murong Yan was similar to her usual behavior. made it clear that he wanted to make a fool of himself, and he also gave himself a chance to show his face.

Yan Yue couldn't help laughing, in fact, Yan Yue already had an idea when everyone was composing poetry just now, why should she be too low-key if she wanted to be in the limelight, Yan Yue said with a smile: "Don't worry, concubine Niangniang, in fact, my sister is really not good at composing poetry, and I don't think eating crabs has much to do with composing poetry." But my sister and I are very good at telling stories, and it is definitely related to today's crabs, and you can still find the people in the story in your crab, I don't know if the sisters are interested? ”

If it is purely a story, I believe that the women here will not be much interested, and the key is that Yan Yue said that she could find the person in the story in the crab, which made the women curious and surprised. This time, without waiting for Wan Guifei to speak, Qing Guifei had already ordered: "Shuyuan Niangniang, hurry up, if you speak well, you will have a reward." If you don't speak well, you will be punished. ”

Yan Yue grinned, her eyes swept over Murong Yan's body, but she couldn't help frowning again when she saw that person's brows. It seems that since he entered the hall like pinching the time, his brows should have been wrinkled more than once, he didn't look at any beauties, let alone comment on any poems, even if the concubine asked each other, he just responded casually. From a psychological point of view, I don't like this atmosphere very much.

Yan Yue was happy in her heart, cleared the noise, and began to speak vividly: "There is a white snake named Bai Suzhen who has practiced for thousands of years, and she is very envious of the life in the world. One day she turned into a girl to play in the West Lake, and met the gentle scholar Xu Xian, and the two met because of the rain and borrowed an umbrella, and then fell in love with each other and became husband and wife. After marriage, the couple opened a pharmacy, and because Bai Suzhen cured a lot of incurable diseases, the pharmacy's business became more and more prosperous. However, all this offended the monk Fahai of Jinshan Temple. Because people's illnesses have been cured by Bai Suzhen, there are far fewer people who go to Jinshan Temple to burn incense and pray for the Bodhisattva. And after he found out that Bai Suzhen was the white snake, he tried every means to destroy the relationship between Xu Xian and the white lady, but Xu Xian's love for his wife was very affectionate, and even if his wife was a snake demon, he was unwilling to part with her. In a fit of anger, Fahai kidnapped Xu Xian and hid him in Jinshan Temple. In order to ask Fahai for her husband, the beautiful white lady came to a mountain of water, but after all, she was defeated by Monk Fahai and was suppressed in Leifeng Tower.

Yan Yue said it sensationally, when men and women met, it was romantic, when they were married, when they were happy, when they encountered obstacles, when they were hurt, they were sad...... In order to strengthen the effect, Yan Yue also added the content of the White Lady giving birth in battle, which was seen in the TV series anyway. Speaking of this, Yan Yue stopped, paying attention to the expressions of the women, only to see that they all showed regret, and some beauties were in tears, and they were not in the mood to taste the crab in front of them.

"Then what happened to Bai Suzhen in the end? What happened to the kid in the end? And what about Xu Xian? Finally, there was a little beauty who couldn't help it, and tears flowed down her eyes as she spoke.

Yan Yue coughed her throat and continued: "Later, all the common people were upset about Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian, and the Jade Emperor sent Tai Bai Xing to investigate it. Tai Bai Xing led all the heavenly soldiers and generals to arrest the monk Fahai. When he was desperate, he saw a crab molting between the rocks of the beach, so he immediately got into the gap in the crab shell and hid in the crab shell without moving. Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian returned to their home and began a happy life ever since. ”

Only then did everyone turn their worries to peace, and the little beauty smiled again when she heard this. Only Gu Guifei asked curiously: "Sister Shuyuan, do you mean that you can find Monk Fahai in this crab, but sister, I only see crab roe and crab paste, where is there any monk?" Your Majesty, isn't it? ”

Everyone is eating and laughing, and some don't mind, listening to such a beautiful story is enjoyment, why bother to pursue that point! But some people began to watch coldly, preparing to watch the show, because if there was no Monk Fahai, Yan Yue's words just now could be regarded as a bully! Only Yan Yue smiled even more proudly, picked up a male crab casually and said, "Do you want to find Monk Fahai?" Then follow me now, and you will definitely find out that monk! Remember, pick up a male crab. ”

The women had never heard such a magical thing, and they all picked up the crab in front of them with Yan Yue's words. Yan Yue talked and did step by step, and the women learned step by step, and when the last step was over, a small monk appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and everyone couldn't help but let out an exclamation, and even the palace maids who were waiting on the side screamed in surprise.

Yan Yue smiled proudly, this was Yan Yue's favorite game when she ate crabs in her previous life. I didn't expect it to come in handy here. And Murong Yan didn't know when there was a Fahai monk in his hand, and a warm smile appeared on his lips, and that smile made people's hearts warm when they looked at it. Yan Yue looked at it carefully, and secretly swore in her heart: Murong Yan, I will keep giving you opportunities, let you discover, let you understand, I just hope you don't bear me!
