Hua Jin put down the Buddhist scriptures, sat for a while, and then got up with the peach and left the Qinghua Palace and returned to the stage.

The women accompanied the Queen Mother to have some snacks and listened to two plays, and it was time for the birthday banquet to officially begin.

There is still a distance from the stage to the Cining Palace where the banquet is held, and several elderly ladies led by the Queen Mother are all sitting in soft sedan chairs.

On this not very long road, Hua Jin, Gan and Wei Zhi really met Yan Shaoning, who was on an errand in the palace today.

The sharp-eyed lady immediately teased Wei Zhizhen, "Princess Shuhui, isn't that your future husband?" ”

Wei Zhi really glanced at Yan Shaoning and twisted his head.

Yan Shaoning came up unhurriedly to greet the ladies, but his eyes did not fall on Wei Zhizhen's face for a moment.

Hua Jin looked at the two people who were tired of each other, and felt more and more interesting.

Gan Shi was a little worried on the side, and asked Hua Jin quietly, "You said that these two people are like this, they won't have to live a good life in the future!" ”

Hua Jin didn't persuade, but said: "Mother, so you have to stay in Beijing and watch Zhizhen, so as not to make any trouble for her, you also know that Zhizhen only listens to you." ”

"Hey......" Gan let out a long breath, "I really can't leave at the moment." ”

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were talking, and they arrived at Cining Palace.

Hua Jin went to Concubine Jing's side again, and the Queen Mother, who went back to change a set of clothes, returned again.

Hua Jin found that although the Queen Mother had changed a set of clothes, she still did not change the little emerald hairpin on her head.

It's just that the Queen Mother hasn't sat down yet, so Emperor Yongkang took the four princes, the fifth prince and Fei into the banquet hall together.

When the Queen Mother sat on the throne, Emperor Yongkang presented this birthday gift to the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother opened it in front of everyone, and it was a big night pearl.

After that, there is the gift of the four princes, which is a double-sided embroidered seat screen in the south of the Yangtze River, embroidered with a hundred birds and a phoenix.

And the fifth prince Chu Rong presented a painting.

Hua Jin found that the painting presented by Chu Rong was exactly what he got from Fei that day.

It's just that many people love it, and they actually use Fei's collection to borrow flowers and offer Buddha?

Hua Jin watched as the painting was unfolded in front of the Queen Mother......

The eyes also fell on the face of the Queen Mother with the painting.

The Queen Mother seems to have something on her mind today, which anyone can see.

But if there were still five or six smiles on the face of the Queen Mother just now, then now, these five or six smiles have disappeared.

Don't talk about laughing, just after the Queen Mother's eyes fell on that painting, her expression for a moment turned out to be between surprise and consternation.

If she hadn't been immersed in the harem for several years, it would have been impossible to retract her gaze so quickly, and even smiled at everyone and praised: "It's still King Huai's unique vision." ”

But why did the Queen Mother look at this painting with such an expression?

The painting of Huajin is known, but it is just a painting of pine trees, what metaphor can it have?

Is it a painter?

This point, now I am afraid that only King Chu Rong, who dedicated the painting, knows.

Or, Hua Jin set his eyes on Emperor Yongkang and the Four Princes and Fei, could it be that this was calculated by them again?

After calculating the two princes, he came to calculate the queen mother?

Maybe this can only be known after the palace banquet is dispersed and returns to the Guangwang Mansion.

After the banquet began, there were palace maids from Yunshao Mansion in the palace performing musical instruments and singing and dancing.

This is a show that will be performed on major festivals in the palace, and these ladies who often enter the palace are tired of watching it, let alone the queen mother who has lived in the palace for a long time.

A song and dance that did not arouse much repercussions ended, and then there was a folk music performance, which aroused everyone's interest.

Especially in the performance of Sichuan Opera, when the faces of the same performer changed in front of everyone's eyes, everyone put down the cups in their hands and fell on the performer's face.

As the plot of the performance enters **, everyone is also looking forward to what kind of face the performer will conjure up next.

The performer's long sleeves flicked, and the face on his face changed, but it was replaced by the face of an ordinary woman.

Just when everyone felt a little strange, they found that the Queen Mother, who was sitting on the high platform, suddenly knocked over the jade cup in front of her after seeing this face.

The cup tumbled to the ground, making a crunch in the great palace and shattering to pieces.

Just when everyone was a little dazed by the Queen Mother's gaffe, the performer who changed his face suddenly flew to the Queen Mother on tiptoe, and a cold light appeared on his hand.

"There are assassins! Protect the Queen Mother! ”

It was only at this shrill shout that everyone realized what was happening in front of them.

And the Queen Mother, who was pale and stunned just now because she saw that face, came back to her senses at this sound and hurriedly bent down and drilled under the table.

Even if it is a person as noble as the Queen Mother, in the face of life and death, he does not care about the occasion and dignity.

The assassin only had time to pick up the queen mother's phoenix crown with a sword, and was surrounded by the palace guards.

"Catch people and leave them alive." At this time, Emperor Yongkang gave an order, and everyone was pulled back from fear and distraction.

"The Queen Mother." Emperor Yongkang personally stepped forward to help the Queen Mother up.

Although the queen mother had fallen to the ground, she still did not forget to touch the little emerald pearl hairpin, which was lifted up by Emperor Yongkang and sent back to the inner hall by a group of palace maids and eunuchs.

The Queen Mother has been in the harem for many years, and she was assassinated.

There is obviously an ulterior secret behind this.

There is no reason why the people who are the Lady of the Decree do not know this.

But at this time, he could only hold his breath and pretend that he didn't see anything.

The birthday banquet obviously can't go on anymore, and the palace has its own attendants to arrange for the ladies to leave the palace in an orderly manner.

Fei had already pressed the assassin out, and Hua Jin went out of the palace with Gan and Wei Zhizhen in a sedan chair arranged by the palace.

Back at the Guangwang Mansion, Zhitao helped Hua Jin's ankle to compress the medicine that Fei had prepared, and then Ling Xiang went back to dinner.

"The princess must have eaten much in the palace, so the slave maid asked the kitchen to make some braised duck tongue and dried tofu."

As soon as Lingxiang said this, Hua Jin realized that she was really a little hungry, and heard that it was her favorite food, so she asked Lingxiang to cloth the chopsticks.

It's just that when I smelled my favorite braised food on weekdays, my stomach rolled and retched.

Zhitao and Lingxiang, who were standing on the ground, were frightened, "Princess, what's wrong with you." ”

Hua Jin waved his hand, "What's not in the way, it's just that the carriage has taken too long, and it has been a little frightened in the palace." ”

Since he was tied up that time, Hua Jin has become even more disgusted with riding in a carriage, and everyone knows this, so they don't doubt him.

At this time, the little maid sent by Hua Jin to wait in the outer courtyard happened to come in and report that she had flown back and had dismounted at the front door.

Hua Jin asked Ling Xiang to take down the meal, and asked Zhi Tao to serve her to clean her face and change her clothes again, putting on the best posture to listen to the story.

Fei then returned to their bedroom from Gan's yard...... 2k reading web
