Chapter Seventy-Seven: Arrange a Singing and Dancing Feast
After making a series of arrangements, Ji Jingyu came to the palace of the Queen Mother Su Yutang, but Su Yutang was not in her palace at this time, because she also received the news that Ji Fei was missing in the war, so she specially went to Feng Xingchen's Fenglin Palace to explore the news.
Seeing Feng Xingchen sitting engrossed on the stone bench in the pavilion and watching the fish in the lotus pond swim around, Su Yutang walked to her side.
"The queen is so good at leisure?"
Hearing Su Yutang's voice, Feng Xingchen stood up and bowed mechanically, she said listlessly: "Why didn't anyone spread the word after the mother, it seems that these minions really have to be punished." ”
"You don't have to blame them, I made it so that they didn't have to pass it on."
"Oh!"
"Empress, it seems that you have a lot on your mind, are you also worried about General Ji's disappearance?"
Hearing the words "General Ji", the anger in Feng Xingchen's eyes flashed away, but when she faced Su Yutang again, a pair of slender eyes regained their calm.
"Queen Mother, General Ji's affairs are indeed quite worrying, but for the emperor's affairs, the concubines are also very worried, after all, the harem is now full, but the emperor has not even seen the concubines who have been selected, if it continues like this, I am afraid that the bloodline of the royal family will be really difficult to continue.
As the head of a palace, the concubine is really to blame, the concubine is useless, and the concubine cannot please the emperor. ”
"So that's it? Queen, you don't have to blame yourself for this matter, so be it, anyway, the emperor has not held any grand banquets in the palace since he ascended the throne, we might as well choose a day, today we will hold a song banquet belonging to the emperor and the harem, I don't know what the queen wants? ”
Hearing that Su Yutang was willing to organize a banquet for herself, Feng Xingchen naturally couldn't ask for it, maybe after she drunk Ji Jingyu during the banquet, when the raw rice was cooked and matured, she didn't believe that Ji Jingyu was really so affectionate?
Feng Xingchen replied happily: "The concubine is willing to listen to the arrangement of the queen mother." ”
"Okay, you let people go and spread it to the concubines in the harem, so that they can prepare well, and the emperor will say it for you."
"Thank you, Queen Mother!"
After seeing Su Yutang's departure, Feng Xingchen asked people to arrange the place for the banquet, and she instructed the eunuchs and palace maids to go to the residences of the concubines one by one to inform them of their arrival.
When the new concubines heard that they could go to the banquet with the emperor, they all dressed themselves up in fancy clothes, in order to let the emperor take a fancy to him and get the opportunity to sleep that night.
Similarly, Feng Xingchen showed her the most beautiful clothes and makeup, and when she came to the main hall of the palace, the concubines of various palaces had already arrived.
But compared with Feng Xingchen's costumes, those concubines obviously lost a lot of color.
Feng Xingchen smiled faintly, and she confidently walked to the chair on the left in front of the main hall and sat down.
Not long after, under the leadership of the Queen Mother, Ji Jingyu also came to the main hall.
Originally, Ji Jingyu didn't want to participate in this so-called singing and dancing feast, but the Queen Mother said that no matter what he said, he had to participate in this feast before he could say it.
Helpless, Ji Jingyu could only escort himself to the banquet site.
Sitting on the dragon chair, the feast of singing and dancing officially began in the opening remarks of the eunuch.
