Chapter 360: Flying Flower Order
She suddenly spoke: "Concubine Jiang, you have always liked the colors of those flowers, why are you dressed plain today?" There is a concubine-colored Hangzhou silk embroidered with gold wind and jade dew in the palace, I think you will like it, and I will order someone to send it to you later! ”
When Li Changzai heard this, he raised his head suspiciously.
Concubine Jiang also said strangely: "How can Niangniang also have the concubine-colored Hangzhou silk of golden wind and jade dew?" Last year, the concubine-colored Hangzhou silk given to Li Changzai by the Li Mansion was not embroidered with gold and jade dew! ”
With a bang, Su Youyi felt like a string had broken in her head.
She was a little breathless, and she could hardly believe what she was hearing.
The emperor vaguely noticed that something was wrong, and looked at her beside him, and the hand under the table secretly clenched her.
Su Youyi felt the corners of her mouth curl up slightly, a decent smile arc, and then heard a voice that didn't seem to belong to her, and asked, "Oh? Is that so, Witness Lee? ”
Li Changzai was a little embarrassed at first, and after listening to Su Youyi's question, he had to get up and answer: "Yes, Guifei Niangniang." Last year, there was indeed a concubine embroidered with gold and jade dew in the Hangzhou silk sent by the family, and the concubine had already cut her clothes to wear, because it was last year's clothes, so she did not dare to wear it at this spring banquet. ”
Concubine Jiang smiled, she wanted to ridicule her for not being able to wear last year's clothes, could it be that last year's fabric could be worn?
Su Youyi opened her mouth first, "Really? A whole piece of fabric cut a piece of clothing, this Hangzhou silk is precious, it is a pity. ”
Li Chang was worried that she would take the opportunity to accuse herself of luxury, so she hurriedly said: "No, in addition to clothes, the remaining fabric is also made into two handkerchiefs, and there is also an upper." The rest will be rewarded to the palace maids, and they can also be made into purses, sachets or something. ”
Su Youyi seemed to be very interested in this, and repeated, "Two handkerchiefs? ”
"yes."
Li Chang was afraid that she wouldn't believe it, so he took out a silk handkerchief from his sleeve, "Niangniang, look, one of them is here, and the other party seems to have lost it when he went out to play, and he can't find it anymore." ”
Su Youyi looked at the handkerchief she unfolded in front of her, concubine-colored, Hangzhou silk, and golden wind and jade dew patterns...... It was exactly the same as the handkerchief found on Cui Shao's body.
She sneered secretly in her heart.
"Concubine Niangniang?"
Concubine Yan called out to her in surprise, and Su Youyi woke up like a dream, so she raised her head and looked at her with a smile, "What's wrong?" ”
Concubine Yan shook her head, she just felt that Su Youyi's appearance didn't look right, and she didn't know what she was thinking. Li Changzai just spread her veil, but she didn't say anything.
Su Youyi followed her gaze, and then saw Li Changzai's embarrassed appearance, so she said, "I'm sorry, this palace just thought of something else, and I was distracted." Sit down, Your Majesty, you can have a seat. ”
After that, he personally added wine to the emperor.
The emperor said: "Today is the Spring Banquet you are organizing, and I am just a companion, and I should not open the banquet." When you come to the banquet in person, it seems to be a harem family banquet. ”
The emperor spoiled Su Youyi everywhere, it was really unchanged for many years, and even such a decent thing as the opening of the palace banquet was handed over to Su Youyi.
Su Youyi didn't push much, only picked up the wine glass and said, "Okay, then I'll start the banquet." Today is the festival of worshipping the god of flowers, and may the spring breeze go this year and come back next year. I also wish all the sisters in the harem eternal youth and flowers. ”
After saying that, they raised their glasses and drank them, and everyone also raised their glasses and drank them, and only said in their mouths: "May the emperor and the concubine be young forever." ”
The first glass of wine is drunk, and the dishes of the feast are slowly served.
A bowl of peach blossom soup was sent first, and Su Youyi said: "The dishes for today's spring banquet are all made with the flowers in this imperial garden, either in shape or fragrance. It's also a bit elegant, the emperor tastes it. ”
The emperor saw that this peach blossom soup was different from what he used on weekdays, and tasted it, the taste was light and glutinous, and the aroma of peach blossoms was mixed with a little bitterness.
Suddenly, his brows furrowed slightly.
Su Youyi looked at the bottom again, and the expressions of the concubines were not good-looking, and they were quite bitter.
She hurriedly explained: "Does the emperor feel a little bitter? It's a bit bitter, but it's an appetizer. The mouth is slightly bitter and sweet, and the delicious food can enjoy its original taste for a while. ”
At this time, Hui Gan has come up, and the emperor's expression is much better.
He couldn't help but tease, "That is, you, if such a dish is presented in the imperial dining room, I still think that someone has poisoned the dish." ”
The audience laughed loudly, and even Li Changzai, who was so embarrassed that he was about to cry, laughed.
The emperor is really getting more and more witty!
And his humor seems to be only shown in front of Su Youyi, when dealing with the government and other concubines and princes, he is still the king who does not smile.
Su Youyi glanced at her mouth, "The emperor actually said that the concubines were so wasted that the concubines had spent so much effort to arrange today's spring banquet." No matter what, the emperor will definitely try every dish for a while! ”
"It's up to you."
The emperor is obedient, and he looks like everything you say is good, and everyone is envious and jealous.
Full of wine and food, several princes are old, and naturally they are not willing to sit still, so they proposed: "It's rare to have spring today. It's bright, why don't you come to the wine order! ”
The emperor smiled: "Yes." ”
All the princes were very excited, and the concubines were not easy to spoil their fun, only Concubine Yan said: "Don't make a too difficult wine order, just for you scholars to play, let us play without reading!" ”
Concubine Yan has this benefit, and she generously confesses her poor learning problems, so that they can make the questions simpler.
After a while, the eldest prince and the others came up with an idea, "Since it wants to be simple, let's fly the flower order, right?" In order, one person and one sentence, in the end, whoever can't catch it will be punished for drinking, father, Zhao's mother, do you say it's okay? ”
It's rare to have this interest today, the emperor depends on them for everything, and Su Youyi naturally can't object.
"In that case, let the emperor say a word, right?"
The emperor said casually: "Since today is the third spring banquet in the first month of March, let's talk about the poems with the word 'spring'." ”
Spring word.
Everyone suddenly thought about it, Gao Qishou put a small table at the bottom, lit a dream sweet incense, and the game began.
The eldest prince took the lead in getting up and said: "I don't know about spring sleep, and I smell birds everywhere." ”
Before the first sentence appeared, several concubines were already shouting: "Oh, I was about to say this, but I was preempted by the eldest prince!" ”
The eldest prince hurriedly said: "I originally wanted to go from easy to difficult, since this is the case, let's leave the simple ones to you Concubine Yan." ”
When he said this, the second prince was naturally embarrassed to say something simple, so he thought for a while, "The tide of the Spring River is even with the sea, and the bright moon on the sea is born together." ”
The third prince also got up and said, "Good rain knows the season, when spring happens." ”
Another concubine wailed, they had wanted to say this.
Su Youyi said with a smile: "The third prince is simpler. ”
