Chapter 522: Joyful Banquet
The Imperial Garden was beautifully decorated, and the flower-viewing banquet called the Concubine was held as scheduled!
Different from the previous palace banquets, the number of little girls who entered the palace this time was larger, but the queen mother did not speak, and the guards guarding the palace gate naturally did not dare to object!
Fortunately, the imperial garden is big enough, and the imperial dining room in the palace is also manpower enough, otherwise I am afraid that it is really not capable of entertaining so many guests!
Every lady who entered the palace was dressed up in flowers, and from a distance, it was even more delicate than the flowers blooming in the garden!
The little palace ladies walked gracefully in front of them without squinting and arranged their food, and they were envious of those noble ladies! In my heart, I have a little ambition to be elected to the palace!
According to the past practice, before choosing a concubine, they must be asked to show their talents on stage, so they are secretly preparing to show their hands for a while!
However, the queen mother came out of their expectant gaze, and said some opening remarks in their expectant gaze, and then let them feel free, and she turned away again.
The ladies were dumbfounded!
What does the queen mean by 'casual'?
Everyone, look at me, I look at you, no one understands!
"Don't you see? There is no performance space here! ”
After a noble lady finished speaking, everyone was stunned!
That's right! At first, they felt as if something was missing, but it turned out that this was missing!!
But, mother, what does this mean?
The noble lady who had already had a good spirit quietly asked the little palace maid next to her, and then she understood that what the lady said casually meant that she really let them watch and dine casually in this imperial garden, which was really casual!
But, but—
Before they could figure these things out, a group of beautiful sons suddenly came in at the gate of the Imperial Garden, led by the emperor!
Ah! I can't imagine that the queen mother is so broad-minded, and it was the emperor who chose it personally, or in such a 'casual' way!
Oh, my God! Isn't their chance coming?
As soon as the joy in the hearts of the noble ladies hung on their faces, they heard the emperor say with a smile: "Today, I have chosen concubines for several princes, and all the noble ladies must behave well, if any of them is looked down upon by the prince, I will marry them on the spot!" ”
After the emperor finished speaking, he sat down on the high platform above, waved his hand to King Kang, King Ning and King Rui, and said, "I am waiting for your good news here!" ”
The faces of those three people turned black in unison!
No one thought that the emperor would come to such a hand!
The few sons who followed behind were suddenly a little deflated!
"Your Majesty, then what are you doing with your ministers and waiting?"
Before, the emperor sent someone to summon them into the palace, saying that there was something important, could it be that it was done so that they could be the audience of the three princes?
Jing Yan coughed lightly, glanced at the large number of beauties, and said in a low voice: "I see that you are not young anymore, and seeing that your parents are not interested in your marriage, so I and the queen held this flower-viewing banquet, except for the three princes, if you look at each other, you can come directly to me, and I also promise to give you a marriage!" ”
"Huh??"
It's not that Dao is surprised, or happy, those sons and brothers who are not low in status are also dumbfounded!
Is that okay??
This, this is simply unheard of, unseen!
King Kang and a group of young sons and daughters-in-law who came back to their senses finally understood why their fathers and mothers were not allowed to come to this banquet!
Hey! It's really-
I want to jump up with joy!!
Jing Yan drove them in, and he sat comfortably on it to eat, well, invite his daughter-in-law to come over and watch the excitement in a while!
In the imperial garden, the mood of the nobles rose and fell like the cascading mountains, and it was not until they saw a long line of sons and brothers who came in that they woke up!
It's not the emperor's choice of concubines, there is no emperor choosing concubines at all!
So what do they do? Asking to go back? Thinking of the ardent expectations of the elders in the family, the noble ladies couldn't give birth to the heart to go back immediately!
However, then again, in addition to the emperor, King Ning and King Rui are also noble, and they don't have princesses, and His Royal Highness King Kang, although they have children, they can't stand the good of others, can you also think about it?
Everyone's minds are ups and downs, and some of them have already gone to create chance encounters, so everyone can't help but let go of their minds and find their favorite objects!
The queen mother appeared on the high platform at some point, sat with the emperor and whispered.
"How? This blind date banquet is good, right? ”
Jing Yan chuckled, shook his head and sighed, "You! How did you come up with such an idea? I'm all having a headache right now, if that group of old antiques outside knows about it, they don't know how to react! ”
Chu Peijin said with a smile: "Don't worry! You see-" She stretched out her hand and pointed to the people who were talking to each other, and said, "Their status is not low, and if they do, they will definitely not wronged anyone." Besides, I didn't say that it was to choose a concubine for you, even if I had to confront you face to face, I was not afraid! She paused, and then whispered, "Besides, aren't you still in the way!" ”
"You!" Jing Yan doted on her and took a grape for her and put it in her mouth, and said, "I suspect that if there is any banquet in the palace in the future, I am afraid that they will all be sick, injured or find some other reason not to come!" ”
Chu Peijin smiled and said, "Are you stupid?" Who would dare not come to the Holy Decree? After speaking, he laughed to himself again, and said: "Sure enough, there are still rights, with rights, we can slowly change their thinking, and we can also take the opportunity to improve the status of women!" ”
Jing Yan hurriedly made a surrender and said, "Don't! I don't want to see a bunch of women in the court! ”
When Chu Peijin heard this, he couldn't help but laugh and fell into his arms!
In the imperial garden, King Ning was dragged by King Rui to hide in a hidden place.
"Fifth Emperor Brother, what are you doing here?" King Ning was a little puzzled.
King Rui glared at him, "Didn't you see that group of women staring at us?" It's scary! ”
King Ning twitched the corners of his mouth, "Fifth Emperor Brother, you shouldn't be the group of people who don't look down on the outside, right?" ”
"Where can that be?" King Rui quietly brushed aside the leaves and looked out, and while looking, he said, "This is the most beautiful, gentle, and wise man in our Kyoto...... Hey? Why is that girl there? ”
"Who? Who's in? King Ning looked over curiously, "Is it Erya?" Fifth Emperor Brother, isn't the one who talked to her the prince of Korea? I see that Erya is quite compatible with him......"
When King Rui heard him say this, he felt very uncomfortable for some reason!
"Where's it? That girl looks like a wild boy, where is there a little bit of everyone's beautiful appearance? ”
King Ning was stunned for a moment, then looked back at King Rui thoughtfully, and said, "Fifth Emperor Brother, should you be ...... Jealous?? ”
King Rui's face changed, and he suddenly pushed King Ning and said, "Go, go!" Go find your future princess! ”
King Ning looked at his appearance, smiled, and really left, leaving King Rui there to look at the girl's smiling appearance and sulk!
