Chapter 217: The palace banquet is full of murderous opportunities
Zhao Yan was openly refuted for the first time, her pretty face was red and blue for a while, and she changed several times before she found her words: "Mu Yunge, what do you mean?" Are you going to help this scourge against me? β
"Yun Ge has no such intention," Mu Yunge blessed his body again: "Yun Ge just thinks that this is very inappropriate, Miss Zhao is a famous lady, and the queen mother is also able to speak in front of her, so don't make the mother embarrassed for a few words of dispute." β
She said a sentence on the left and a sentence on the right, and she had deducted such a big high hat before, how dare Zhao Yan say it again, she looked at her hatefully, her silver teeth were almost crushed, but she was helpless, so she was not embarrassed.
At this moment, the inner supervisor next to the queen mother came to pass the decree, the queen mother and the concubine Degui Niangniang were about to move to Rongying Palace, and invited all the young ladies to gather in Rongying Palace. Mu Yunge left leisurely, while Nangong Jin didn't look at Zhao Yan anymore and went straight to Rongying Palace. Almost all the daughters in this side hall were headed by Zhao Yan, and at this time, Mu Yunge stood firmly on the upper hand, and everyone was impressed by her bearing, and couldn't help but make way for her.
Nangong Jin followed behind Mu Yunge, looking at the girl with a straight waist in front of her with complicated eyes, and her face, which had rarely smiled for many years, slowly bloomed.
Xiao Shi also returned to the side hall, and sat down in the first place on the right side, and the vacant position beside her was Mu Yunge's position.
After Mu Yunge sat down, Xiao asked, "Who is the young lady who just came in with you, a new friend?" β
"That's Miss Nangong Jin from the Yasukuni Mansion." Mu Yunge said with a smile: "My daughter likes her very much, but Miss Nangong is a military general, so I'm afraid I don't like to associate with a boudoir lady like my daughter." β
Nangong Jin's name Xiao had also heard of it, she wanted to persuade a few words, but after thinking about it, her daughter has always had her own ideas, and this Miss Nangong must have something special, so she won't say more.
Nangong Jin is daughter cannot inherit the title of Duke of Yasukuni, but she is a first-class female general appointed by the imperial court, and she is more noble than the first-class lady, and she is the first in the seat, close to the queen and the concubine. In this way, Mu Yunge and Nangong Jin's seats were face-to-face, and after she sat down, she nodded to Mu Yunge unexpectedly.
Mu Yunge smiled back, and Yao Yao took the fruit wine in his hand and toasted her.
Nangong Jin picked up the fruit wine in his hand and drank it all, and gestured to Mu Yunge with the empty cup. Mu Yunge also drank all the wine in the cup, the corners of Nangong Jin's mouth hooked slightly, and he smiled very lightly, and immediately returned to his appearance just now.
When Zhao Yan entered the door, she saw the two of them greeting each other, she was extremely annoyed, her eyes fell on the first seat, and an idea immediately flashed out. She pursed her lips and smiled, her face quickly moved like water, and she obediently sat down beside Mrs. Zhao. But as soon as she sat down, she beckoned to the maidservant behind her, and whispered a few words in her ear.
A trace of astonishment flashed on the servant's face, and she hurriedly lowered her head to cover up the past, and bowed down to exit the main hall.
Mu Yunge was surrounded by the wife and daughter of another huge rich man in Da Wei, and after the young lady sat down, she couldn't help but lean over and whisper to Mu Yunge: "Miss Mu, you were really amazing just now, that Miss Zhao was dumbfounded by you!" β
Mu Yunge said lightly: "It's just a few words of truth. β
"Anyway, you can be regarded as a bad breath for us merchant girls! Everyone was born and raised by their parents, so why should we be inferior to them? This time, let them know that they know that they are powerful, even if they are business girls, we are not easy to mess with! The young lady did not hide her admiration: "Saying that our business girls are lowly, they are actually inferior to us who speak ill of people when they see people!" β
Mu Yunge hurriedly swept to the opposite side and shouted, "Silence! β
The young lady stuck out her tongue, and was pulled by the lady beside her, and hurriedly retracted her head.
"The Queen Mother has arrivedβ"
"Concubine De has arrived-"
It didn't take long to wait, the shrill voice of the inner supervisor finally sounded in the hall, and when everyone heard the announcement, they all stood up and faced the small side door of Rongying Palace, waiting for the arrival of the two masters.
Empress Zhao and Concubine De came in one after the other, and the eight palace maids who were waiting for them stood behind them, and the ladies and ladies got up and bowed. After hearing Empress Zhao's order, "Please get up and give a seat", everyone got up and thanked them, and each sat back in his place. Empress Zhao briefly talked about the purpose of today's palace banquet, and waited for the news of Emperor Wu's banquet to come before ordering the banquet to begin.
There are many rules in the palace, and the banquet is different from the ordinary family banquet, and the dishes have long been on the table, but no more than three chopsticks can be moved, which is very boring.
Mu Yunge is definitely not the only one who feels bored, there are eight kinds of dishes, Queen Zhao smiled and said: "It is rare for everyone here to enter the palace once, and it is tasteless to sit dry." There was a new song and dance in the palace, which was also interesting, and even the emperor praised it well. Little Bean, go and announce their entry into the temple to help everyone! β
The inner supervisor behind her answered, and withdrew, and soon ten palace maids wearing water-red skirts lined up in two to enter the hall, and danced as soon as the music sounded.
Mu Yunge had a rough rhythm, and when he heard that it was "Breaking the Array", he was slightly interested and watched it carefully.
These dancers have soft waists, but their feet are very energetic, and the taps are like Jin Ge Iron Horses rolling in, which should be sword dances, but instead of using water sleeves, the long sleeves are waved softly or resolutely, which has a unique flavor.
Mu Yunge was looking at it intently, when she suddenly felt a sudden pain in her right hand on the table, and the hot feeling spread over the entire palm, and the hot soup was rolling down from the back of her right hand and falling on the table in front of her. The palace maid who gave her the vegetables was full of panic, and she was about to kneel down and quietly watch her reaction.
Xiao's eyes were full of distress, and when he saw this, he hurriedly took out a handkerchief and washed the oil soup off her hands.
Mu Yunge held Xiao's hand with one hand, and quietly stretched out the other hand, quickly stopping the palace maid's kneeling momentum.
"It doesn't matter." Mu Yunge shook his head slightly, and looked at her with pure but warning eyes: "You don't have to ask for guilt, if you alarm the queen mother, I don't have to worry about my life, at most I won't be favored, you will lose your head." β
The palace maid still wanted to kneel, but the Muyun singer was squeezing her tightly, her legs stiffened, and she couldn't bend at all, so she had to respond: "Yes." "Stand up again, behave properly.
Mu Yunge took the handkerchief handed by Xiao Shi and carefully wiped the oil soup on his hands, but after a moment's delay, the back of his hand was already red and swollen, and blisters would grow in about a short time.
Zhao Yan, who had been looking at this side, saw that the palace maid had won her hand, and she was just waiting for Mu Yunge to stand up in a panic, but seeing that Mu Yunge's hands were swollen like that, she was still motionless, and the palace maid did not kneel to attract the attention of the queen's mother, and her hatred was even stronger, and she tightly twisted her handkerchief with a face full of unwillingness.
Suddenly, she was happy again.
Mu Yunge's hand is swollen like that, it will soon be swollen, and he will definitely have a scar in the future. It's so big, look at how beautiful she can be, and how she can seduce King Yu!
Mu Yunge cleaned the back of his hand, raised his head and glanced at her directly, his eyes were dark, and Zhao Yan's back couldn't help but feel a chill. Zhao Yan was stunned for a moment, Mu Yunge had turned her head away, and talked to Xiao Shi with a smile, as if it was all her illusion just now.
Nangong Jin saw everything in her eyes, sneered a few times, her cold eyes turned slightly, and when the dancer finished dancing this song, Queen Zhao didn't speak, so she stood up first, and the military general hugged her fist and saluted: "Queen Mother, Nangong is a military general, and she has never learned the rules very well. β
Empress Zhao smiled: "Jin'er, according to the seniority, the palace is still your aunt, you are too polite to say this." What questions, you ask. β
Nangong Jin's father married the eldest princess, Nangong Jin was said to be a disaster star and could not be disgusted by Emperor Wu, in addition to her ability to lead troops to protect the border, but also because she was the royal bloodline. Since Emperor Wu favors her, the queen can't help but give her this face.
Nangong Jin pretended to wonder: "If someone ignores the palace rules and injures the emperor and the queen's guests in the inner palace, what should be done according to the laws of the inner palace?" β
"According to the law, you should be punished." Empress Zhao quickly reacted, swept her cold eyes over the palace maids present, and frightened them all knelt down before she said, "Jin'er, who made you unhappy?" β
Nangong Jin came over sideways, raised her hand and pointed at the palace maid beside Mu Yunge: "Queen Mother, this person is so bold and reckless, he dares to deliberately spill hot soup to hurt people on such an important occasion as a palace banquet." Miss Mu is generous, I can't stand it, please let Niang Niang fall from the heavy hair to set an example! β
Everyone was stunned, and they all looked at Mu Yunge, and her red and swollen right hand naturally couldn't escape everyone's eyes.
"You're so daring!" With a loud shout, Queen Zhao's face changed.
Today's palace banquet is for these rich businessmen's wives and daughters, the court women, official ladies are all foils, Queen Zhao has long commanded, today's palace banquet does not allow anyone to be negligent, now not only has something wrong, but also hurt the emperor who wants to envelop the eldest lady of the Chamber of Commerce leader family, slapped the queen's face and did not say, if it is a mess, the emperor will blame it......
The maid of the Bucai Palace knelt at the table and trembled, not daring to defend herself, only casting her eyes on Zhao Yan.
Zhao Yan sat obediently beside Mrs. Zhao, without looking at her, looking like she had nothing to do with herself.
The palace maid was helpless, so she had to look at Mu Yunge with a pleading gaze.
Mu Yunge lowered his eyelids lightly, and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "What a benefit Miss Zhao promised you, you dare to give her your life." I'm sorry, I can't save your life, and I won't save it. β
I stopped her to save myself before, but now I killed her, just to use it to establish my authority, so that those who want to calculate her Mu Yunge know that she Mu Yunge is not something that everyone can afford to provoke!
Empress Zhao said angrily: "Being so bold and arrogant, it's simply that you don't take the palace rules in your eyes, and you don't take the palace in your eyes." Someone, drag it out, and kill this thing that doesn't know whether it's alive or dead at once! β
The palace maid was shocked, dragged by the inner eunuch, panicked, and was about to call, but the inner eunuch who pulled her had covered her mouth and dragged her out.
At this moment, Concubine De, who had been silent and did not speak, finally spoke: "Wait! β
