Chapter 14: The Palace Banquet (1)

"Daddy, why do I have to attend the palace banquet?" Zhan Yunxi pouted, looking unhappy.

Zhan Mingxuan couldn't cry or laugh: "You kid, people can't participate in the palace banquet, but it's good that you dislike it." You can't help it if you dislike it, the emperor specially hand-picked it, and even the eldest sister can't go. ”

"Then can I also be with my uncle?"

"Okay, what your mother said is right, you little conscienceless, how much ecstasy soup did your uncle pour you, so you don't want to go home so much!" There was a clear vinegar in his voice.

Zhan Yunxi secretly said that it was not good, and pulled Zhan Mingxuan's sleeve and coquettishly: "Good father, it's Xi'er's mistake, Xi'er misses you, you still have your mother to accompany you, my uncle just returned to Beijing, isn't he too lonely?" ”

"Huh." Zhan Mingxuan didn't know if he remembered the old things, his eyes were distant, but he didn't mention this topic again.

"Sister Wanxiang, do you need to be so grand?" Zhan Yun sat in front of the bronze mirror with his head unlovely, letting Wanxiang fiddle with it.

"Miss, this is a palace banquet, of course it has to be formal, but Miss is so good-looking, she doesn't need to wear any makeup. Okay, Miss open her eyes and see. Wanxiang stood next to her with a smile and satisfaction.

Zhan Yunxi opened his eyes and was amazed by himself in the bronze mirror. Yes, stunning, the word wasn't supposed to be used for this little girl, but it was unexpectedly appropriate. The pink and white jacket and skirt shirt are embroidered with brocade flowers, and the cuffs and neckline are a circle of white fox fur, which makes people more and more delicate, and there is nothing on the face, only a flower on the forehead. However, she is naturally beautiful, and it is difficult to give up. There are two flower-like ctenophores hanging on the head, and it is really a human face that picks flowers and reflects each other, and even in winter, it seems to feel a bright spring. The beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, bringing out a bit of charm.

Zhan Yunxi always knew that he looked good, after all, his father and mother were all beauties, but he didn't expect it to be so good. Zhan Yunxi smiled with satisfaction, and the delicate childishness immediately diluted the flattery, and only added a little brightness.

"Daddy." Zhan Yunxi saw the handsome figure standing in the courtyard and called happily.

Zhan Mingxuan turned around and saw his daughter coming over, and couldn't help but shake his head, eh, I don't know which kid my daughter will be cheaper in the future?

"Daddy, this is good-looking?"

Zhan Mingxuan smiled and stroked Zhan Yunxi's sideburns: "Good-looking, my daughter is the best-looking." ”

Zhan Yunxi can be behaved, and he was a little embarrassed at this time, and hurriedly urged: "Daddy, let's go quickly." ”

The door of the house, the big house and the second room are already waiting outside the door. Shen Wei was dressed in a gorgeous costume, her head was full of golden hairpins, and she glanced at Zhan Yunxi with a little impatience and jealousy at this moment, but Zhan Mingxuan didn't say anything because she was afraid of her. Su Ruohua stood beside him, his makeup was elegant, his temperament was like an orchid, and Lianshan had a gentle sweet smile, but his eyes glanced at Zhan Mingxuan's father and daughter vaguely. Zhan Yunxi secretly pondered: How do you feel that Su Ruohua is actually looking at her father?

Before he could think clearly, he heard a kind voice: "Obediently, come and sit with my grandmother." ”

Zhan Yunxi put away his thoughts, his eyebrows and eyes bent, and ran directly to the carriage at the front. When I got into the car, I immediately called in a soft voice: "Grandmother." ”

"Eh," replied the old lady happily, "let me take a good look, where did this peach blossom fairy come from!" ”

"Grandmother~"

"Yo, that's shame."

There was the laughter of the grandparents and grandchildren in the car, Shen Wei twisted the handkerchief on her hand angrily, shook the handkerchief, and got into the car directly. Su Ruohua next to him sneered. Zhan Mingxuan turned his gaze indifferently, but he was not worried in his heart: the sister-in-law is too childish, obviously from Shangshu Mansion, why doesn't she even have this demeanor?

Zhan Mingde said: "Okay, everyone is here, let's go!" Several people got into the carriage.

"What were you doing?" As soon as Zhan Mingde got into the carriage, he frowned and shouted.

Shen Wei was already angry, but now she was reprimanded by her husband, and she was even more annoyed: "Why can the second girl go to the palace banquet?" Why can't my Lan'er go? My mother has always been partial to the second girl. ”

"What's the matter with this mother, the second sister is hand-picked by the emperor, the third brother is the emperor's junior brother, and the third brother and sister are the lord of Jing'an County favored by the queen mother, can you compare with others?"

"What? Dislike that I'm just the daughter of Shangshu? ”

"What are you talking about? Okay, stop making a fuss, and show people jokes later. ”

Shen Wei snorted coldly, but didn't say anything.

"Husband, I heard that your Shaoqing of Guanglu Temple is about to give office, so is it possible for the husband?" Su Ruohua asked softly.

Zhan Minghou was silent for a moment and shook his head: "That position is estimated to belong to Lord Yuan, and he is closer to Lord Shaoqing." ”

"Really? Then forget it, there will be a chance in the future. Su Ruohua was relieved understandingly, but his eyes flashed with anger that hatred of iron could not become steel.

"Madam, I have wronged you."

"No, it's useless to be a concubine, and you can't help your husband."

Zhan Minghou patted Su Ruohua's hand and said nothing.
