Chapter 88: A Stormy Banquet

As soon as I entered the temple door, I suddenly felt a warmth surrounded people, the cold wind outside was like a knife, but the indoor was warm like spring.

In one corner of the hall, there is a blue and white incense burner, and the cigarette smoke rises up, scattering the sweet and greasy hibiscus incense to all corners of the hall.

Shi Miaoyu and the others didn't come early, and at this time, there were more than ten family members sitting in the huge hall, talking about something with a smile.

In the center of the throne sat a woman in a phoenix robe. The queen is dressed up very grandly today, wearing a phoenix robe embroidered on the nine heavens of the phoenix wings to fly, with her turning head, the five phoenix Chaoyang Guizhu hairpin swayed slightly, and it looked even more luxurious.

Seeing Lin Yanran and the others asking for peace, the queen smiled in surprise and asked, "Are you from Muyang Houfu?"

Hearing this, Lin Yanran felt even more panicked, and bowed her head and replied respectfully: "Muyang waits for his wife Lin, knock to see the mother Chitose." ”

Over the years, the queen has heard a lot about the affairs of Muyang Houfu, but it has always been Qiu Yingyao who came a few years ago, and today she was replaced by this legendary merchant girl Lin Yanran, and the queen's heart is a little clear, thinking that the rumors during this time are true, and the main room of this Hou Mansion launched a prestige, which should not be underestimated.

The queen made a judgment in her heart, but the smile on her face became more and more kind, and said: "In previous years, I only knew that you were not in good health, but I never saw you. I saw it today but felt that the rumors were wrong, according to the palace, it must be Muyang Hou who wanted to hide the golden house, so he hid and did not allow you to come out to see people. ”

As soon as she said this, a noble lady suddenly joked and said: "The courtiers also think so, you look at this Mrs. Muyanghou, she is really good-looking." Even though the courtiers are women, they are also pleasing to the eye. ”

The people in the first hall immediately laughed, and there were some malicious eyes that fell on Lin Yanran.

At this time, Lin Yanran was still kneeling, and she felt a little apprehensive.

Shi Miaoyu's eyes were cold, but they instantly changed to a smile, and said coquettishly: "Niangniang's words are not right, who doesn't know that the most noble woman in the world has entered the palace, with a pearl like you in front as a comparison, isn't it bullying her mother?"

The queen only thought that Shi Miaoyu was familiar before, but when she heard her speak, she suddenly remembered that the little girl at the palace banquet that day was sharp and sharp, and finally coaxed the emperor to be happy.

The queen's eyes flashed, and she said in her heart that this girl's eloquence must be taught by the Lin family, and it seems that this Lin family is a hidden person.

She thought so in her heart, and the smile on her face became more and more kind, first ordered Lin Yanran and others to sit down, and then smiled: "Look at this girl's mouth is really sweet, sure enough, everyone in the world is good to give birth to a daughter, look at the stupid son in this palace, you will know that you are angry in this palace! Mrs. Hou, this palace is very envious of you." ”

As soon as she said this, Lin Yanran just sat down and stood up again, a little scared, but the noble lady who had spoken before smiled and said: "Niangniang beware that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knows, and it doesn't depend on you, where in the world is there such a mother?"

There were a few people in the hall who immediately echoed, and the huge hall was very lively for a while.

Shi Miaoyu looked at all the women in the hall quietly, and then remembered the identity of the person who had just spoken.

That's the queen's mother's sister-in-law, no wonder she doesn't speak as well as others.

Queen Jiang Yanyue is from the Qinghe Jiang family, and it can be regarded as a family of one party. The first emperor was grateful for the grace of Jiang Taifu's teaching, so he gave his granddaughter Jiang Yanyue to Gu Qingyuan, the king of Qi at that time. When the first emperor died, King Qi became the current Kangdi, and Jiang Yanyue, the princess, also became the queen's mother.

After that, the Jiang family also moved to the capital, and this stay was more than ten years. Jiang Yanyue has been close to her brother since she was a child, and she also respects this sister-in-law very much, so this Mrs. Jiang can speak so casually.

Most of these families present are intertwined, and as long as they are not enemies between husbands and sons, almost all of them are related by marriage. Lin Yanran had never been here over the years, and she was confused about this, so Shi Miaoyu sat next to her and seemed to speak in a low voice, but in fact she was explaining the relationship between them to Lin Yanran.

Because she spoke in a small voice, Shi Miaorou didn't hear what their mother and daughter were muttering. When she was bored on the sidelines, she saw several relatives of the nobles of the family walking in outside the hall, including her close friend Li Rumei.

When those people asked An to come over, Shi Miaorou suddenly couldn't wait to find Li Rumei.

Then Li Rumei had already discovered that the elders who were following Shi Miaorou had changed, and when she saw her coming over at this moment, she immediately asked in a low voice: "Miaorou, who is she?"

Hearing this, Shi Miaorou's face immediately sank, and she said disdainfully: "She is the merchant girl that my father married." ”

She deliberately omitted Lin Yanran's identity as the main mother, and only focused on the three words merchant girl, and sure enough, she saw Li Rumei's eyes showing a little disdain.

"It turned out to be a merchant girl, what did Mu Yanghou think, she married such a ......"

Before Li Rumei's words were finished, she heard Mrs. Li cough lightly, interrupting her daughter's words, and then said with a gentle expression: "Mei'er, come over with your mother, and your mother will introduce you to a person." ”

This is a disguised separation of Li Rumei and Shi Miaorou.

Seeing this, a flash of resentment flashed in Shi Miaorou's eyes, and she knew that as long as Lin Yanran came to the palace, there would always be some ladies who would dislike her because of her status as a concubine!

Her face was not so thick, so she saluted, "Madam, Miaorou will go back and sit down first." ”

Seeing that Shi Miaorou had gone back, Li Rumei whispered dissatisfied: "Mother, what are you doing?"

It's so easy for her to meet this close friend in the boudoir, and she hasn't said a few words yet, why does her mother drive people away in disguise?

Mrs. Li's smile was also put away, and she reprimanded in a low voice: "How many times have I said you, why are you still playing with this concubine? ”

These days, she has listened to rumors in Beijing, and naturally knows the current disputes in the Shi family's house. What's more, at the banquet where King Anling chose a wife before, this Shi Miaorou was ugly. If you get close to such a person, you don't have to take her daughter with you!

Hearing Mrs. Li's words, Li Rumei was suddenly a little unhappy, but when she looked at her mother's face again, she didn't dare to say anything more, so she could only look at Shi Miaorou secretly with worry.

Shi Miaorou was driven away almost straightforwardly, only to feel that everyone in this hall was looking at her with a look of disdain, and she felt more and more ashamed and angry in her heart, she quickly returned to her seat, lowered her head and did not dare to raise her eyes, but her eyes were full of hatred.

Shi Miaoyu was carefully talking to her mother about the relationship between the characters in the hall, so naturally she didn't see Shi Miaorou's appearance. When she said that her mouth was dry, she almost spoke, picked up the teacup and took a sip, and then asked in a low voice, "Mother understands?"
