August 15, Mid-Autumn Festival, auspicious day of the zodiac. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

As soon as the morning dawned, the palace began to get busy, and the little queen, who had always only sent Yun Yao out to inspect, also went into battle in person, and walked around every corner to ensure that nothing went wrong.

As usual, the courtiers went to the morning court, and discussed the government with Shen Ze for a while, and then they left the palace and went back to their homes to have a reunion dinner with their families. This meal is eaten at home at noon, and it is time to go to the palace in the evening.

At the end of the day, Yun Yao felt both tired and fulfilled, everything was in order, just waiting for night to fall.

And after the sun sets, the night also comes as desired.

Lanterns were lit everywhere in the palace, and the courtiers had already entered the palace in twos and threes, some with their families, and some alone, who had a good relationship on weekdays, gathered together, waiting for the arrival of the emperor and the queen mother.

If you look closely, the current court situation has changed completely differently from before, some new faces appeared at the palace banquet, and these people were newly promoted by Shen Ze when she took advantage of the Queen Mother's move to destroy Zhou Taichang.

"I heard that this palace banquet is organized by the queen's mother, and the mother is young, so she can take on a big responsibility, and she really has the demeanor of a mother. Xuanyang Hou, congratulations—"

"Prizes have been awarded. ”

In the courtyard of the Wind and Water Pavilion, many people have already come, and some people have greeted Xuanyang Hou Rongyan and praised Queen Rong Ya, which can be regarded as a sycophant of Xuanyang Hou.

It's just that Xuanyang Hou's expression is always faint, and he has a detached smile for anyone's toast or conversation, which makes people want to be close, but it seems to be far away.

Just when everyone was chatting happily, the emperor arrived with Lu Yingquan and Luo Song first.

After everyone shouted long live, they sat down according to their grades at the emperor's instructions, and the hall was silent for a while, waiting for the emperor to speak.

"Everyone, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, I don't have much to say, I wish Daning forever the country and the people, the wind and rain are smooth, and every family is reunited. Shen Ze took the lead in raising his glass, said so, and then drank the wine in the cup.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live. Everyone spoke in unison, and at the same time drank the wine in their glasses.

Soon, after everyone put down the wine glasses, the Queen Mother and the Queen came side by side, the Queen Mother followed Jinxiu, and the Queen naturally followed Yun Yao. The other concubines followed behind the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother in pairs, and for a time there were many beauties and dazzling.

After taking a seat, the queen mother asked the emperor if he could sing and dance, and after the emperor allowed it, Rong Ya asked Yun Yao to go to the back and order, and the songs and dances could appear in order.

The palace banquet is nothing more than these things, silk and bamboo, drinking to help the fun, although there is nothing new, but it is also decent, for the queen who is organizing the palace banquet for the first time, it is not easy.

Yun Yao stood behind Rong Ya, her eyes swept over the banquet of the ministers, according to the grade, Gu Qingming should have been sitting in the first position on the right hand, but I don't know why, Gu Qingming didn't come today.

Obviously, not long ago, when she asked Achen to go out to visit, she wrote back that Gu Qingming was no longer in trouble, and since there was no major problem, why didn't she enter the palace?

Yun Yao's heart was full of puzzlement, but her face was calm and she couldn't see any expression.

But her movements were seen by Lu Yingquan behind Shen Ze on the side, Lu Yingquan knew that Yun Yao was thinking about Gu Qingming in his heart, so he quietly took a few steps back, and then took advantage of the fact that no one else was paying attention, pulled Yun Yao's sleeve, pulled Yun Yao to the back, and whispered in her ear:

"General Gu has already entered the palace, and because he has not recovered from his serious injuries, it is not suitable to drink, so the emperor did not let him come. He waits at the edge of the forest next to Lake Furo, and after a while you find an excuse to get out, and I'll cover for you. ”

Hearing Lu Yingquan's words, Yun Yao was happy for a while, if it weren't for the fact that she was standing behind the queen at this time, if it wasn't for the queen mother who was not far away, she would almost jump up.

But now, she can only endure the joy in her heart and wait silently.

The song and dance continued, and just when everyone shook their heads and felt a little bored, Yang Liangren got up and said to Shen Ze and the Queen Mother: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, for this Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, the concubines have also prepared a song and dance to cheer up the emperor." ”

"Oh, you also prepared a song and dance?" Shen Ze couldn't help but be surprised, "I remember that Concubine Ai's dancing is unique, I'm afraid no one in the whole Daning can compare, Concubine Ai dances quickly-"

"The concubine obeys. Yang Liangren bowed down and said, "Please also ask the emperor to give the concubine a little time, and let the concubine go and change her clothes." ”

After getting the emperor's permission, Yang Liangren took Ying'er to leave Fenglai Shui Pavilion and went to Qionghuatai not far from the next door to prepare to change clothes.

Yang Liangren was wearing the dance clothes she wore when she first entered the palace and danced for the current saint who was still the prince.

However, when Yang Liangren was changing clothes, he accidentally knocked over the tea on the table, stained Ying'er's skirt, and slightly burned Ying'er.

When Yang Liangren appeared, all the people in the audience were shocked, those who had seen or had not seen Yang Meiren's dancing posture, all stared at it with wide eyes, such a stunning beauty, but it was a pity that she was already the emperor's woman.

Yun Yao watched it quietly and felt very amazing.

She knew that if this Yang Liangren was not the arrogant and domineering appearance he usually had, he would definitely be an extremely outstanding person. No matter how she entered the palace in the first place, whether she was selected by Chuxiu Palace, or was accepted into the palace in order to envelop Yang Yushi's power, I have to say that Yang Liangren is really an authentic beauty embryo.

Especially this dance, the red clothes are flying, and they look so beautiful and refined in the bright moonlight, and the dazzling people can't take their eyes off it.

It's a pity that Yang Liangren has too many thoughts and is destined to become enemies with her. It's not that she has to fight with Yang Liangren to the death, but because she wants to save her life and protect Rong Ya from harm.

Just when everyone in the audience was obsessed with dancing, Yun Yao had already noticed that Ying'er, who had accompanied Yang Liangren to change clothes before, did not come back with her, but went somewhere.

Yun Yao felt a faint uneasiness in her heart, she knew that Ning Lan had now arrived at Yang Liangren's side, it was impossible to be so calm tonight, so Ying'er might have other plans to leave?

Thinking of this, Yun Yao, like Fang Cai, pulled Lu Yingquan's sleeve, and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "Yingquan, there is something you may not know, Ning Lan was brought to Jiuhua Hall by Yang Liangren a few days ago, and now she is the person next to Yang Liangren. I noticed that Ying'er followed Yang Liangren to change clothes and hasn't come back yet, I guess something might happen tonight, whether they're targeting you or me, and I'll see the opportunity for a while. ”

Lu Yingquan was a little surprised when he heard this, but then nodded to Yun Yao, indicating that he had understood.

She was surprised that Ning Lan had entered the inner palace, but she didn't know it, and after listening to Yun Yao's words, she was worried that Ning Lan would make some kind of moths. But looking back, she is no longer the Lu Yingquan she used to be, if something really happens, she can still see some clues.

While the two sisters were talking, Yang Liangren's dance had already finished, she saluted the emperor, and then walked off the high platform, leaving the venue behind her to the dancers in the palace.

"Come, Concubine Ai, come to me—" Shen Ze beckoned to Yang Liangren and motioned for Yang Liangren to come up and sit with him.

It is a great honor to be able to sit on the dragon chair with the emperor, and only the queen has always had such qualifications, but today, because of a dance, the emperor actually gave such a glory to Yang Liangren, which made the other concubines think in their hearts?

Sure enough, except for the queen who doesn't know very well, Jiang Meiren, Xu Liangren and Du Liangren all have resentful expressions, especially Jiang Meiren, she used to be at odds with Yang Liangren, and now Yang Liangren is demoted, and she can finally suppress her, but she didn't expect Yang Liangren to win the emperor's favor with a dance.

Yang Liangren saw that the emperor had not loved him so much for a long time, and his heart was excited, so he snuggled up to the emperor's side, charming and moving, and his gestures were full of amorousness, but also in order to stimulate Jiang Meiren and the other two lovers, he deliberately whispered softly in front of Shen Ze and coquettishly with Shen Ze.

Shen Ze is obviously also very happy, he is almost not a woman on weekdays, he seems to be led by Yang Liangren's nose, and even peeled grapes for Yang Liangren in person with the respect of the Ninety-Five, and fed them to her mouth.

At this moment, Yang Liangren is simply out of the limelight, it can be said that this is the most dazzling moment when she has been in the palace for so long, she can't help but sigh, Ning Lan's strategy really works, let her use the best dance skills to attract the emperor's attention, I have to say that it is a wonderful move.

However, Yang Liangren did not get carried away because of this, she remembered that there were more important things to do tonight, so she said to Shen Ze angrily:

"Your Majesty, it's so cold for the concubines to wear this dance dress, can you allow the concubines to change their clothes first and then accompany the emperor?"

"Of course you can, how can you let my beloved concubine freeze? But what about the people around you? This is even more revealing that the sky is heavy and dark, and there is no one to accompany me, I really don't feel at ease. Shen Ze turned his head, and wanted to tell Ying'er to serve Yang Liangren to change clothes, but he didn't find Ying'er.

"Ying'er, this girl, just now accidentally knocked over the teacup and soiled her clothes, the concubine was afraid that her untidy appearance would affect the mood of the emperor and the queen mother, so she asked her to go back to Jiuhua Hall to change her clothes, calculate the time, and she should be on the way back at this time. Yang Liangren said, "Your Majesty, the concubine heard that Young Envoy Yun is the safest to do things, can you ask Young Envoy Yun to accompany the concubine?"

"Absolutely. Shen Ze agreed without thinking about it, "Yun Yao, you accompany Yang Liangren to Qionghuatai, change your clothes and then send Yang Liangren back." ”

"The slave obeys. Yun Yao respectfully agreed.

In fact, when she heard the words "Young Envoy Yun" from Yang Liangren's mouth, she knew that maybe this was a bureau, a bureau set up for her.

Yun Yao left the queen's side, and when she passed by Yingquan, the two glanced at each other, nodded slightly at each other, and some things were tacitly understood.
