Chapter 421: A Flower Banquet Without Flowers (Fourth Update)
Duchess Yanguo thought about it for a long time, and finally thought of a way, she asked her to send the changed dowry list to the county lord's mansion, and also attached a post, taking advantage of the birthday of the old lady of Yanguo, to invite Gu Mingzhu and Mao to Yanguo's mansion.
This time, the county lord's mansion finally accepted it, and soon people replied, saying that it was time to go to celebrate her birthday, and her heart was stuffed back into her stomach, and she began to worry about how to talk to Gu Mingzhu again, begging her to spare the Yanguo Mansion.
At this time, she suddenly discovered that the eldest lady Gu who was picked and disliked by her in the Gu family in the past has now become the person who controls the life and death of her family, and it is so difficult for her to even want to meet and ask for a favor.
This really made her feel very uncomfortable, but there was no way to do it.
Gu Mingzhu didn't know about the troubles and entanglements of the Duchess of Yanguo, she was helping the queen arrange a flower-viewing banquet.
It was just out of the first month, the weather was warm and cold, there were no flowers in the garden, even the spring was just the beginning of the year, where to find any flowers to arrange the flower feast, but the queen of heaven did not care, ordered to set up a banquet by the West Sea, from the greenhouse to hold a few pots of blooming cyclamen, orchids put aside, even if there is a meaning of appreciating flowers.
"I don't go here to enjoy the flowers." The queen of heaven didn't care about what to spend or not, and explained to Gu Mingzhu, "It's just that seeing that so many people have been added to the palace these days, they should all see it, and it is time for them to face the saint." ”
Several new beauties, talented people and women have been in the palace for a few days, but they have not yet faced the saint, after all, it is the queen of heaven who nods before they can be arranged to sleep by the Shang Palace Bureau.
Gu Mingzhu understood and asked people to arrange this flower banquet without flowers.
On the day of the flower banquet, the queen of heaven did not let Gu Mingzhu follow, and sent her and Princess Anping to stay in the palace to choose clothes and patterns, and to make spring clothes for them.
On the west coast of the cold spring, the nobles who had just entered the palace were all dressed lightly and brightly, with flowers and branches, although their faces were shy, but they couldn't hide their expectations in the eyes of the dragon pattern table on the table.
The queen of heaven could see it, but she didn't say much, and said with a smile to Sun Baolin, the old men in the palace: "In the future, you will all be sisters, if you have anything to take care of each other, after all, it will take a long time for you to enter the palace, so you should help more foil and foil, and it is better to be harmonious." ”
Sun Baolin has lost his shape since he had a miscarriage, although he has been powdered, he looks bleak after all, and he glanced at the young and charming beauties who are still above her, and reluctantly agreed.
And those who have been here for a while, and they also know that she is just a palace maid by the Han family's side before, where will they put it in their eyes, and they don't have a good face, so they talk to themselves and don't pay much attention to her.
The queen of heaven sat on the upper seat, and naturally understood all this, but she also smiled lightly and ignored it.
When the saint came, the banquet became hot for a while, and the eyes of the newly-promoted people looked at the table dressed in a bright yellow Tang Dynasty, and they didn't know how many times they had turned.
Really speaking, the saint can be regarded as a handsome man, but these days are frequent, his spirit is not as good as before, and there are many things in the court, and he seems to be even more powerless, looking much older, but he is the son of the Tang Dynasty after all, and has supreme authority, and this alone is enough to impress a woman.
So there were many episodes at the flower banquet, for a while the beauty of the hairpin slipped down, and for a while the talented person accidentally touched the cup, each with its own way, but it was an eye-opener.
It's just that these are really not enough in Xu Siyan's eyes, it's not that no one in the palace wants to make waves over the years, but they all disappeared in the end, and the methods of these people are almost ridiculous.
But the saint didn't seem to think so, she stood behind the queen of heaven, and clearly saw the saint on the opposite table with a rare smile, and looked at the few people on the table intently, as if she was very interested.
She couldn't help but look at the queen of heaven worriedly, but she only saw a stagnant calm without waves.
The queen of heaven sat on her couch, as if she didn't know anything about all this, but smiled and said to the saint: "These are all from Chang'an Guifu, all of them are good-looking, and I like them very much." ”
The saint smiled at her rarely: "Thank you for your hard work, not only do you have to worry about the affairs in the palace, but you also have to personally inquire about the selection." ”
The queen of heaven was a little distracted for a while, she couldn't remember how long she hadn't heard such gentle words from the mouth of the saint, after she had been in charge of the six palaces for him for so many years, and for him to have children for so many years, he actually chose a few concubines to be so gentle to her, I have to say that this is an irony.
But she said softly: "It is my duty to share the worries of the saints. ”
The saint looked at the flower-like beauties, and was in a good mood, and said a few words to the queen of heaven about the marriage between King Chen Liuwang and King Xian, and then ordered him to go to the courtyard to disperse, and those people naturally went with him.
Watching a group of people follow him to the garden, the smile on the queen's face slowly faded, leaving a cold place.
Xu Siyan stepped forward and said carefully: "Niangniang, do you want to take a look too?" ”
The queen of heaven sneered: "What am I going to do, look at the plain and worrying, follow me back to the Ganlu Palace, everything that should be done has been done, and then they will go nonsense." ”
Xu Siyan was startled, didn't dare to ask more, and helped the queen to get up.
"Let the Shang Palace Bureau arrange a few beauties, talented people and maids to sleep, as well as the palace maids who have just entered the palace, if the saint also has a fancy to it, just send it according to his instructions." The voice of the queen of heaven was so cold that there was no temperature.
Xu Siyan was taken aback, there were three new beauties in the palace, three talented people, and five or six women, plus the previous ones, if so many people were arranged, I was afraid that there would be singing in this palace every night, and it would not stop.
The saint's head stroke has not yet been cured, and if it continues like this, I am afraid that it will ......
She thought about it again and again, and suddenly her heart tightened, and she didn't dare to say anything more, so she hurriedly ordered someone to go down and make arrangements.
The queen of heaven said: "Let the imperial doctor of the Imperial Doctor's Department order and the hospital judge to take care of the saint's body, these new people are promoted in the palace, and the saint is on the rise, but they can't spoil his interest, they still have to open branches and leaves for the saint." ”
Xu Siyan responded in a low voice.
The queen of heaven took her to the Ganlu Palace, but she didn't mention it again, as if she had completely left it behind, and told her with a smile to follow Gu Mingzhu to deal with the two marriages of King Chen Liuwang and King Xian.
Xu Siyan was apprehensive, but he didn't dare to show anything on his face, but said: "His Royal Highness King Chen Liu's marriage is about to arrive, and the Shang Palace Bureau has prepared the dowry and personal welcome items, can I take a look?" ”
The queen of heaven shook her head: "His marriage naturally has conventions, just let the Shanggong Bureau arrange it according to the rules, don't treat it badly, and I won't look at it any better." ”
