Chapter 281: Mid-Autumn Festival Banquet (Fourth Watch)
During the Mid-Autumn Festival, the emperor invited hundreds of civil and military officials, and all officials above the fourth rank could bring their families into the palace. On this day, the inner garden of the palace was very busy.
The three salted fish of Yongfu Palace were also seconded by the Imperial Dining Room.
Ye Ziqi was assigned to be in charge of washing vegetables, which happened to be with Xiao Xijuan.
Xiao Xijuan was pleasantly surprised when she saw Ye Ziqi.
"Sister, I thought I'd never see you again."
Ye Ziqi looked at the little girl, her face was ruddy, much more ruddy than before.
"I've looked for my sister before, but I can't find it. It turns out that my sister is from Yongfu Palace, no wonder I can't find it. Little Xijuan was very happy, and chattered non-stop.
"Shhhh Ye Ziqi raised a boo gesture at her.
Xiao Xijuan immediately closed her mouth and didn't dare to speak again.
On this day, Ye Ziqi began to wash vegetables from dawn to sunset, and then stopped. At the beginning of the feast, they were a little empty.
Xiao Xijuan pulled Ye Ziqi to the corner, took out a bag of things from her arms, and the little girl carefully spread out the silk handkerchief, revealing a moon cake, and stuffed the moon cake into Ye Ziqi's hand, "Sister eat." ”
Looking at the precious appearance of the little girl, I knew that she had left it for her.
Ye Ziqi touched her little head, "I don't like to eat moon cakes, you eat them yourself." ”
"It's delicious." Xiao Xijuan persuaded.
"I've already eaten it before, it's too tired. I don't like to eat sweet, you eat it yourself. ”
Seeing that Ye Ziqi said resolutely, Xiao Xijuan really believed it, "Then I'll eat it." ”
Ye Ziqi watched the little girl eat in small bites, as if she was eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, and couldn't help touching her head, her eyes were full of pity.
"Sister Yun, there will be fireworks later, let's go over there and have a look."
"No, it's been a busy day today, and I want to go back to sleep. See for yourself. Don't miss out on the beautiful fireworks. ”
"Okay." Little Xijuan was a little disappointed.
After separating from Xiao Xijuan, Ye Ziqi went in the direction of the Baohe Palace, where all the courtiers and female dependents were there today, and the entire Baohe Hall was brightly lit, and the sound of silk and bamboo was beautiful.
Bohol Temple
Feng Jiuchuan sat at the top, the concubines and other concubines sat in the women's area at the bottom, and on the other side were the princes and ministers.
Only Feng Jiuchuan's father and son were fluctuating, and many concubines and ministers who wanted to toast saw Feng Jiuchuan's breath that was colder than usual, how could they dare to step forward.
"The emperor seems to be in a bad mood recently, I thought it was a rumor, but when I saw it today, it was really the case." The little concubine who stayed in the corner whispered.
"At this time of year, the emperor is like this. When did you see it, the emperor smiled. A little concubine followed.
"Is Empress Xiaoxian really so beautiful, let the emperor never forget this." There was an ignorant little concubine who asked questions.
Someone immediately said: "I don't know if it's beautiful or not, but I know that Queen Xiaoxian was just a concubine in the Qiandi back then, think about it, the concubine who can make the emperor unforgettable, and the woman who can still suppress the concubine and them, is she a simple person." ”
Concubine Liu suddenly turned her head sideways and glared at several little concubines fiercely, "If you don't want to live, say it louder." ”
The two little concubines were so frightened that they didn't dare to turn pale, and they lowered their heads in fear, not daring to say anything more.
