109 Palace Banquet (II)
Combing the sky-high bun, wearing an eight-tailed phoenix hairpin with red gold inlaid emeralds, the right end of the sideburns hairpin with fragrant cloud yarn beads, apricot eyes and peach cheeks, and picturesque eyebrows Concubine Yun looks like a twilight beauty in her forties, but like a girl in her prime age.
Concubine Yun's appearance is typical of the Wang family.
With a tall and graceful nose, a small peach-hearted mouth, and a beautiful tip on the forehead, the whole person looks from afar, as if he came out of a painting.
Mother Wang Tingzhen is the younger sister of Concubine Yun's mother, and the two are still somewhat similar, but her mother has been in Jiangnan for a long time, and her charm is a little more graceful and feminine, while Concubine Yun is a little arrogant and strong.
Lin Yu'an's mouth and nose are particularly similar to Wang Tingzhen, and naturally they are also a little like Wang Tingfang.
The emperor sitting in the middle was in good spirits, not angry but mighty: "Zhong Aiqing don't have to be restrained, today is Concubine Yun's birthday, everyone just treats it as a family banquet."
While the emperor was talking, Concubine Yun looked at him with a gentle face, and when he finished speaking, she got up and bowed slightly to the emperor: "Concubine, thank you for the emperor's love."
Concubine Rou smiled: "The emperor has always treated us kindly, Sister Yun's dress today I heard that the emperor ordered the division to make it half a year ago, and the silk threads on this dress are very particular!"
The peony stamens on this robe are made of the same shark thread as the dragon robe, which means nothing but itself.
There is also this palace skirt with a red peony flower Baifu pattern, only the queen of the middle palace can wear it in the past dynasties, and now there is no owner in the middle palace, which can be interpreted as far-fetched that Concubine Yun is the most senior in the harem, and it doesn't hurt to wear it when there is no queen.
But at this time, it seems to be hinting that the successor is Concubine Yun.
Everyone at the table tacitly understood it, and they didn't dare to speak.
Concubine Rou is the type of bird, and Concubine Yun is tall, wearing a gorgeous dress on her body full of momentum, and there is no sense of disobedience when standing beside the emperor.
Lin Yu thought with peace of mind, could Wang Tingfang really be the successor set by the emperor.
Empress Ye of the Yuan family is from the family of the Marquis of Dingyuan, who was the marquis of Dingyuan, who was really rich and powerful, and the fief was the rich Huaizhe County, in the south of Luochuan.
The prince has such a powerful foreign family, which has advantages and disadvantages, so the Ye family began to cultivate obscurity after Empress Yuan became old, and sank down.
If Concubine Yun is the successor, then the eleventh prince, who is only twelve years old now, will have the status of a concubine, and it is inevitable that he will have the heart to win the heir, but if Concubine Rou is the successor, Concubine Rou has only one Princess Rongyue under her knees, and there is no son who can compete with the prince.
Lin Yu'an felt that if she was the emperor, she would be more willing to be the queen concubine, so that she could try to avoid brothers killing each other and fratricidal things.
She has read history books and understands the sinister nature of the successive dynasties in the struggle for succession.
This is not only about who inherits the unification among the princes, but also about the rise and fall of the various families standing behind each prince.
But none of this has much to do with her right now.
Wang Zhongguo's rank is higher, and the Qi clan is a noble county lord, and their seat is next to the imperial heir, prince and princess.
Lin Yu'an looked at it quietly, the Nine Princes sat straight in front of his seat, his slender and powerful fingers pinched the three-legged pottery wine glass and shook it gently, Qi Mubei noticed her gaze and looked at her, Lin Yu'an did not avoid it, and smiled at him.
But seeing the prince sitting at the front looking over here, Lin Yu'an hurriedly looked away, and when she turned her eyes, she saw Yu Jia staring at her, she pretended to be calm and avoided it, but heard Wang Xuanrou say lightly: "Control your eyes."
Lin Yu'an's mood was inexplicably low, the palace maids bowed down and shuttled between the banquets, the desk was full of delicacies, Lin Yu'an picked a piece of cherry blossom cheese palace crisp, the happiness brought by the food made the depressed mood lighter, and she felt that the mood for eating was better, she simply lowered her head and tasted all kinds of food.
Charcoal-grilled mutton, a whole leg of mutton, the roasted skin is golden and crispy, but the meat inside is tender and delicious, Lin Yu'an likes it very much, and eats a lot of grape wine.
Since it is a birthday banquet, it is inevitable to congratulate the birthday star.
When he arrived at Wang Zhongde's side, Lin Yu'an had peach powder on his cheeks, and followed him to the banquet to bow down to the emperor and Concubine Yun.
Lin Yu'an was a little confused, and she didn't hear what Wang Zhongde and Wang Xuanrou of the Yu family were saying, until she heard a voice calling her: "You are Lin Yuan?"
Lin Yu'an nodded in confusion: "Courtier Lin Yu'an, I wish Concubine Yun a long and beautiful ......face."
Yu Shi pushed her anxiously: "Sister An, what nonsense, Concubine Rou asked you!"
Lin Yu'an suddenly came back to his senses and looked at it fixedly, this ...... It's really a concubine.
"See Concubine Rou Niangniang!"
Yu's face turned pale, Wang Zhongde didn't know why, the atmosphere became a little weird, Wang Xuanrou, Wang Xuanyao, Wang Yuansong and others were stunned, Yu was worried that he would be implicated, so he explained: "Concubine Rou, this child entered the palace for the first time, he was greedy and drunk, and he talked nonsense."
Lin Yu'an smiled stupidly, nodded, and closed his eyes heavily.
"Second aunt said nonsense, whoever is drunk, it is you who is drunk......"
"Sister An!"
Yu called her in a muffled voice, her voice trembling a little, the loss of honor in front of the emperor is a big deal.
Lin Yu'an's brain was dizzy at this time, and when he heard Yu's soft drink, another agitated spirit straightened up in shock: "I'm here!"
With a red face and drunken eyes, Lin Yu'an looked innocent at this time, and her small peach heart mouth pouted slightly, which was very cute.
The banquet suddenly burst into laughter, and the emperor waved his hand amiably, and couldn't help but smile: "Since you're drunk, let her go down and drink some sobering soup first!"
Wang Zhongde and Yu both breathed a sigh of relief, and let people help Lin Yu'an down.
Qi Mubei laughed so much that he squirted out a mouthful of wine, and the little prince on the side felt that his reaction was unusual, and asked him softly: "Your 10,000-year-old zombie face can even laugh?"
Qi Mubei touched his nose, gradually retracted his smile, and glanced at the little prince: "I just accidentally choked just now."
At this time, he heard Concubine Yun say coldly: "This kid is really reckless, his virtue is lost, and he is indeed not suitable for the prince of Rongguo."
Now not only the Yu family, but even the Qi family was full of surprise, Concubine Yun actually mentioned the matter of the Rongguo Mansion in public, and there was a bit of dissatisfaction with Lin Yu'an in her words, the reputation of her daughter's family is the most precious, let her say this, Lin Yu'an is afraid that it will be difficult to remarry in the future.
Lin Yuan, who sat back in his seat, had red eyes when he heard this, lying on the desk, feeling a tingling in his heart, and that feeling was indescribable.
In such a strange atmosphere, Yu Jia pushed a wheelchair to the banquet and bowed to the emperor, looking a little difficult.
"Concubine Yun, for the matter of retiring from my family, it is entirely because I know that I am disabled, and I am not worthy of the high moral character of the Wang family's cousin, and it has nothing to do with the Wang family's cousin."
As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar!
