Chapter 3 The Banquet of the Palace

Shen Zetang was silent, only took the wicker branch in her hand and fiddled, bent and twisted, and twisted and twisted, and actually made a small hat full of green leaves, and embedded a few roses at random, and put it on Shunyu's head.

Qia Ni Zhong and a few other guards carried the cage by, since Shun Yu wore women's clothes, knowing that she was thin-skinned, they were not too embarrassed to look at it, and at this time, the wind was clear and the moon was bright, and they saw her wearing a delicate wicker flower hat and looking up at her face with a puff puff, all of them tacitly, this Feng Sheng, how could he be more feminine than a woman, he really couldn't see more, he had to see too much, and he had to be like the second master, confused.

Shun Yu noticed that the guards were peeking at her, she was a little uncomfortable, and she was ashamed to raise her hand to take it off, but she heard Shen Erye groaning in a deep voice: "Life is not often full of flowers and moons, and the situation in front of me is green and willowy." Life parting will be helpless, let it pay the east wind and water, and now sing the bamboo branch song, there is smoke and rain and lovesickness, and ask who is the Chinese New Year? In the deep courtyard at dusk, under the grape trellis, the red and delicate face. Feng Jiu, is this good? ”

Second Master Shen is now a lewd word and a beautiful song, and he is coming soon..... Shun Yu rubbed the flowers on the willow hat, and pretended to be confused with hot cheeks: "Feng Shengcai is a shallow learner, and he doesn't understand the meaning of adults." ”

Shen Zetang approached her and smiled: "If Feng Jiu doesn't understand this, he can take on the false name of the township test Xie Yuan in vain." “

"The township examination examines the laws of the Four Books and Five Classics, but there is no chapter and ....... of Fengyue" When he said this, he was speechless.

Shen Zetang pinched her little mouth: "I don't understand it, but I'm actually more thoughtful than anyone else." ”

....... Stupidly fell into the pit again, Shun Yu didn't want to pay attention to him, raised his sleeve and wiped his lips to go to the room, Ni Zhong led a servant over, and the servant replied: "The prince has returned to the house, set up a few tables in the front hall, please go." “

Shen Zetang let out a "hmm" with his back hand, and thought about it: "It is inconvenient for the female dependents to go together, so it is troublesome to have another seat in this courtyard." The squire agreed.

He swept over Shen Huan without a trace, and was selling to Shun Yu: "I'm here to accompany you." ”

Shen Zetang turned to look at Shen Rong: "You stay with Ni Zhong, Na Wu, and Yao Lai, and the rest of the people will go to the front hall with me." ”

After finishing speaking, he took the lead and walked forward, Xu Jing glared at Shen Huan: "You can start your heart." "This guy only has a long body, not a brain, and I don't know how he will die one day.

Shun Yu breathed a sigh of relief, she didn't want to see Zhu Baobao, regardless of whether he was really stupid or fake, anyway, he was extremely difficult, and it was the best policy to retreat.

...................

There was only one table in the hall, the prince and princess were already sitting in the first place, the maids were surrounded by a dozen attendants, and the rest were placed under the corridor.

After Shen Zetang stepped forward to receive tea and ceremonies with the two of them, delicacies and wines were served one after another, and a table was set up full.

But seeing a little man standing next to Qingwang Zhu Qian, thirteen or fourteen years old, wearing a blue scarf, wearing a blue straight jacket, born with red lips and white teeth, delicate bones, eyebrows and eyes are full of emotion, pulling his sleeves with one hand, holding chopsticks with the other, and picking up the fat slices of sea cucumber in sauce, Zhu Qian leaned his head and bit into his mouth with chopsticks and spoons.

Shen Zetang took the cup to eat tea, and Princess Qing smiled at him and said, "Why don't you come to the banquet?" I hadn't spoken to her before, but blamed me for being slack? ”

"How?" Shen Zetang put down the pot, the maid was busy filling the pot, he said: "Although Jiu'er is delicate, she is the most sensible, and these guards under the corridor often make her angry, but she has never been in front of the official, who has arranged whom, is that they all like her very much." ”

Although she said a few words, she couldn't hide her pampering for the girl, the princess laughed, and the maids on both sides also pursed their lips and smiled.

Zhu Qian was attracted and asked with a smile, "Who is Jiu'er?" Where is she? I want to see her. ”

"Don't provoke Shen Ge's people again." Princess Qing rarely frowned and admonished: "Back then, Mrs. Shen cried because of you, and she refused to stay here for a day. ”

Zhu Qian raised his cheeks and thought about it, obviously forgetting this matter a long time ago, and he didn't bother to remember it, so he turned his head to ask the attendant, did the young master in Jingu Lane come back, did he hear it, and it was rare to have a look of loss.

Princess Qing said: "What kind of lotus powder is it, you can take it with me and see it." ”

Zhu Qian took out a paper bag from his sleeve, the maid took it and opened it carefully in her palm, the princess looked at it, smelled the fragrance again, and said with a smile: "What kind of rare thing should I be, do you remember that last year there was a merchant named Tian Yu who came to the palace with Lilly?" ”

Zhu Qian obviously didn't forget, and clapped his hands: "He gave me a copper telescope, which is really interesting." ”

The princess bowed her head: "I have this lotus fragrance powder he sent in my makeup, and there is still some left, I received a prayer post sent by him a few days ago, and it must have arrived in these two days." ”

Shen Zetang's heart moved, and asked, "He has half of his face, but he is covered with a pure gold mask?" ”

"Do you know him?" The princess asked with some surprise, and heard him shake her head and say that she just met by chance when she passed by the Bingjing Zen Temple on the way to Luoyang City.

She looked very happy: "Since you came first, presumably Tian Jia is also coming soon, I asked him to bring a table from the country last year..... How many days does Elder Shen Ge want to stay here? I could meet him, and he was also an extremely elegant man. “

Shen Zetang smiled lightly: "The rebels in Ji'an, Jiangxi are rampant, the governor Gao Hai is dead, and this official is ordered by the emperor to quickly quell the chaos." But because of an old case, he came to Luoyang City, and he needed the help of the prince, so he left after finding out the truth. “

"Which case does Shen Ge always want to ask?" The princess looked surprised.

Shen Zetang continued: "Eight years ago, the case of the bhikshuni of the Qiyun Pagoda Courtyard who died in vain. ”

"It's been a long time." Princess Qing said: "The case file has already been transferred to the capital by the Criminal Department and Dali Temple, and it is not easy for Shen Ge to investigate. ”

Shen Zetang smiled: "It is precisely because I know that it is not easy to come to trouble the prince and princess to help the official." ”

Princess Qing didn't answer, took the bird's nest porridge handed by the maid, and ate it slowly with her neck down. Shen Zetang waited patiently.

At this time, two musicians who came up with the Yueqin and hugged the pipa, and Xiao Lang, who was serving Zhu Qian's meal, changed into a sea shirt and goose yellow skirt, wore a woman's full set of heads, and wore small gold rings on his earlobes, and his figure was very graceful. opened the guttural voice and sang "Qingyu Case".

Check the spring for another year, comb new makeup, lean on the railing, the river is full of peach blossom water, the curtain hangs down in the deep courtyard, people cover the door, and they hate to meet late.

Zhu Qian was so fascinated by the sound that he didn't even eat the wine, and Princess Qing couldn't help but sigh: "The old lady of Shen Ge is so talented, at that time, I improvised a poem, I asked someone to compose a song, every time I listen to it, just this paragraph is lingering." ”

Shen Zetang was noncommittal, and instead called the guard Zou Gan, pointed to a small bowl of sweet and sour soft fish baked noodles in front of him, and asked him to bring it to Shun Yu to eat.

When she raised her eyes and saw Princess Qing staring at herself, she smiled lightly: "Jiu'er's girl is sweet and sour, and I like this taste very much." ”

Princess Qing had an epiphany, it turned out that Shen Ge's old wind and snow were not in the poems and songs, but in the firewood, rice, oil and salt.
