Chapter 101: Birthday Feast (Asking for Support)
Wei Li's smile was instantaneous, and seeing that Su Jin was close to him two steps away and no longer moving forward, he stretched out his hand, met the doubts in her eyes, and said lightly, "Come closer." ”
Su Jin was a little stunned, thinking that the man had to make a full set of plays, and slowly passed over and was about to stretch out his hand, but he put his hand down again.
Her eyes were gloomy, and there was an inexplicable loss in her heart, and the two of them walked forward side by side half an arm's length.
Wei Li smiled at her at the beginning, but after turning around, he changed his usual cold face, staring at the road the whole time, regaining his original arrogance.
But even so, Su Jin is also the envy of most people, who doesn't want to be so favored by the prince of the Heavenly Family.
Not far away, the maid Xiu'er beside Gan Yingting retracted her gaze, and saw that the master was still so sluggish, so she couldn't help but remind, "Miss, let's get in the car, be careful not to get cold." ”
Gan Yingting didn't move, she was held by Xiu'er and glared at her fiercely.
Xiu'er pursed her lips and let go, not daring to speak anymore.
At this moment, another old woman with white hair came down from the carriage behind her, and beckoned to Gan Yingting, "Miss, Madame told you to go up." ”
Hearing the word Mrs., Gan Yingting finally moved, but her face was not good, and she was dissatisfied and suppressed her anger.
When the little maid put down the stool and helped her into the car, Gan Yingting looked at the woman over forty years old on the couch, and her eyebrows finally softened.
"Mother."
She cried softly and sat down beside the woman.
Tang's expression was not very good, and he reached out and gently took his daughter into his arms, "I was happy when I knew that he could get close to women, even if he spoiled Concubine Su, he was just a concubine after all." If you provoke it, you will be the princess, and if you don't have the same knowledge as that concubine, it is the right way to manage the back house and spread out for the royal family. ”
Gan Yingting's marriage to King Liang is already an open secret in the Gan family, but because of this, the pure heart and little desire King Liang suddenly appeared with a favorite concubine that made her feel embarrassed and ridiculed among her sisters.
"Mother, I know."
Gan Yingting lowered her eyebrows, but her hands clenched the handkerchief tightly.
In the past few days, she has heard too many of the same words, and even the third aunt has persuaded her like this, saying that it is a good thing that her cousin can get close to women.
But she didn't think so, she would rather her cousin always be that iceberg cold face, a real broken sleeve, than he would leave a smile to those messy women.
What you can't get, others are not qualified, and you can't.
Gan Yingting gritted her teeth and swore in her heart that she would not let the scene just now appear again.
On the other side, Wei Li took Concubine Su all the way forward, and after entering the palace gate, his steps sped up, not only directly throwing the woman three steps away, but also his face was full of disgust, covering his nose with a brocade handkerchief, as if he was disgusted.
Rao is Su Jin had heard a lot of rumors about Wei Li, and he was very angry when he saw him like this at this time, so he simply stood there and didn't leave.
Wei Li didn't bother to pay attention to her, and when he saw Zhou Jin coming up, the master and servant went down to the middle hall to greet the emperor one after the other under the guidance of the little eunuch.
In the past, Wei Li could not follow Zhou Jin when he entered the palace, but today there are many adults, and in order to facilitate the royal relatives who enter the palace, each person can bring an entourage.
The two walked not far away, and Zhuzhu also went to Concubine Su, and helped her to the Yuehua Palace where the queen was under the guidance of a palace maid.
When you come to this palace, you can't rest if you want to, there is a group of people waiting behind you, and standing here stupidly is in the way.
Today's celebration and feast will continue until the evening, except for the morning when the officials and women stand together in the morning when they worship heaven and earth, and only the birthday banquet in the evening will be celebrated together in the middle hall, and other times are separated.
Wei Li went to the middle hall, and the others were almost there.
Emperor Sogo was still changing his clothes, and he didn't appear until the auspicious time was almost there, and the queen in full costume came with him.
Under the auspices of the master of ceremonies, civil and military officials and high-ranking ladies braved the wind and snow to complete the worship process.
Many people can't stand the cold, but they have to hold on.
At noon, the emperor and queen each enjoyed a banquet in the palace with the female dependents and hundreds of officials, and there were some simple ceremonies in the middle.
Emperor Sogo showed his face on the side of the middle hall and quickly went down, and the morning ceremony was also fortunate for him, and his face was very bad at the banquet.
When Empress Wan heard that Emperor Chongguang was unwell, she went back to the palace to rest, put down the jade cup in her hand and took someone over.
She left, and all the ladies and ladies at the head of the group stood up to send them off, and then they all breathed a sigh of relief, and the atmosphere of the feast was obviously much lighter.
On the seat not far from the main seat, Concubine Su's heart was hanging, and she looked at the lintel frequently, as if she was waiting for someone.
Her performance was too obvious, and Concubine Han on the side couldn't help but ask, "Sister Su, are you waiting for Your Highness?" ”
The two of them are both concubines of the good king, so they naturally sit together, even if they go to the palace first, it is actually a carriage, but Concubine Su called them away in advance.
Thinking of the scene at the gate of the palace in the morning, Concubine Han couldn't help laughing, so many people envied her, looking like a group of fools.
And the one in front of him also seems to be favored, could it be true that the appearance of the good king is confused? She knew that this woman had His Highness in her heart.
When asked, Su Jin retracted his gaze and said with a shy smile, "Yes, Sister Han, Your Highness said earlier that you would come to me if you had nothing to do." ”
Concubine Han was stunned, looked at her with some incredulity, and said, "Are you crazy?" ”
"Sister, what are you scolding me for?"
Concubine Su was a little angry, but she didn't understand.
Concubine Han frowned, got up and went to her mother's house.
She intuitively felt that there was something wrong with Concubine Su, and if she didn't go farther, something would happen, and it would not be a good thing to get involved with herself.
The trouble essence was finally sent away, Su Jin snorted coldly, lowered his head and took a sip of fruit wine, and did not look out as frequently as he did just now, but watched secretly.
She knew she shouldn't have acted so obviously, but she was undoubtedly too anxious.
The seats in the hall are seated by rank, and the princes and concubines are basically in the front, and the officials and their families are in the back.
Such a row of the Gan family is a little far away, and Concubine Zhuang didn't come, Gan Yingting couldn't get to the front without getting light, so she could only look at Su Jin from a distance and smile shyly, it looked like she was waiting for love, and her eyes were red.
Tang sat next to him, and when he saw his daughter like this, he couldn't help but persuade him a few more words.
Gan Yingting responded one by one, but her expression was a little impatient, because she really couldn't agree with her mother's point of view.
If you really want to be so graceful and deferential, in the backyard, you won't kill someone and replace it with a few clicks.
Fortunately, there will not be many people from Luoxin Palace, and the fifth girl will be invited to sit with Concubine Zhuang.
Gan Yingting smiled, tilted at Su Jin, who was in the front seat, and left with the palace people.
