In the evening, the queen's birthday banquet was divided into two places.

The seats of the harem concubines are placed in the inner room, the lights are bright, and a room full of beauties of warblers and swallows is very lively.

The princess and princess also have seats for the children of the clan, and the queen is placed in the water pavilion, with a good scenery and allowing them to play unrestrained.

The emperor arrived on time to give face, and everyone saluted together in Cining Palace to greet him.

The emperor personally accompanied the empress to drink the first glass of wine, and enjoyed a lot of rare treasures to wish the empress a happy birthday.

The queen thanked her, and said with a smile, "You all go out to play, you can't let go here." ”

Princess Qinghe smiled and gave the gift, "It's still the queen mother's pain and caring, and my daughter wishes the queen mother to be so young and beautiful." ”

"You're going to make people happy." The queen smiled and said,

The atmosphere became lively, and everyone took the opportunity to present the gifts they had prepared and congratulated the queen before retreating.

Shen Xingwan deliberately paid attention to it, almost all the concubines in the palace were present on such an occasion, but Lu Guifei did not come.

It's an indirect slap in the queen's face.

Shen Xingwan pushed Fu Jingchao to the water pavilion, the scenery here is better.

The breeze is gentle and the moonlight is just right.

In addition to the lotus flowers that bloom just right in the water, there are also a lot of lanterns to decorate.

The emperor obviously came just now, but he didn't mention anything about the Seventh Prince, but told Fu Jingchao not to drink if he was not in good health.

The attitude was very clear, and for a while, no one dared to touch Fu Jingchao's moldy head, and no one came up to talk.

Only Lu Wanwan sat down at their table very unceremoniously, and while eating, the eldest brother of the prince was long, and the younger brother of the prince was short and chattering.

Shen Xingwan sandwiched a large piece of meat for her, "Aren't you tired of your mouth?" ”

Lu Wanwan replied while eating, "I'm not tired." ”

After a while, he blushed and said, "Do you think I talk too much?" Hmph, I'm not telling you. ”

Shen Xingwan was amused by her, "You are noisy to my ears." ”

"Then you can block it and not listen." Lu Wanwan said coquettishly.

Idle is also idle, teasing the little beauty is quite fun, Shen Xing made Lu Wanwan angry in a few words.

Shen Wanwan complained to Fu Jingchao, and said pitifully, "Brother Shizi, she bullied me..."

Fu Jingchao, "It's good to bully, who called you so annoying." ”

Lu Wanwan's eyes widened angrily, "Brother Shizi, how can you be like this." ”

"If you find the wrong person to complain, we will only bully you together." Shen Xingwan said amusedly.

Lu Wanwan stomped her feet, "Is it so great to have a marriage contract, join forces to bully people." ”

"It's amazing." Shen Xingwan nodded.

Lu Wanwan was forced to eat a large bowl of dog food, and suddenly felt that the dishes on the table were not fragrant.

was angry, the people in the concubine's palace came, and saluted Lu Wanwan, "The girl concubine asked you to come over." ”

Lu Wanwan's whole person lost his spirit in an instant, and he reluctantly followed the palace people.

Before leaving, the pitiful eyes softened Shen Xingwan's heart.

"You're not a little tempted?" Shen Xingwan asked.

That's a cute sweet girl, if she's a man, she's almost tempted.

Fu Jingchao said with disgust, "If you had seen her crying tears and snot when she was a child, and she liked to lie on the ground and roll on the ground the most, you wouldn't ask that." ”

He will feel that the girl is the most troublesome creature in the world, and Lu Wanwan has contributed a lot.

"She's genuine about you." Shen Xing said late.

Fu Jingchao, "Just looking at my sister who grew up." ”

And between the relationship between Fu Lu's two families, Fu Jingchao has always been very cold to her.

I can't talk about hating.,It's just a willful girl.,There's nothing bad about it.。

The two of them were talking, and the others were already playing.

It was late at night, and the banquet was almost over.

The queen over there specially invited the emperor to visit the lake, saying that the moonlight was just right tonight, and the lotus flowers were in full bloom.

This birthday wish, the emperor naturally wants to fulfill.

The other concubines also didn't follow, leaving the space to the emperor.

The water pavilion was also a lot quieter, Shen Xingwan glanced at it, and many people were already drunk.

Shen Xingwan glanced up at the moonlight, "The moonlight is so good tonight, it would be better if there was a piano sound to match it." ”

Fu Jingchao beckoned, and Hongling came out with a guqin and put it on the stone table beside him.

Shen Xingwan sat down, "What do you want to hear?" ”

Fu Jingchao, "I like everything you play." ”

Shen Xingwan lowered his head and played, and the quiet and moving sound of the piano under the moonlight meandered out in the night, slowly flowing...

The water pavilion fell silent for a moment, and everyone was a little drunk and immersed in the sound of the piano.

Not far away, the emperor and queen, who were swimming in the lake hand in hand, also stopped when they heard the sound of the piano.

The emperor listened for a while and said, "It's a good play." ”

The queen said softly, "I heard it was coming from the water pavilion, and the young man just knew how to play." ”

The two continued on their way, admiring the view of the lake.

After a few steps, there was a sound of Xiao, and the quiet sound of Xiao and the sound of the piano were combined, becoming more and more moving.

With the beautiful scenery of the moonlight lotus pond at this time, it only makes people sweep away the boredom in their hearts.

"It sounds close."

The emperor said as he followed Xiao Sheng's footsteps and left.

originally thought that most of them were concubines in the palace, but they felt it or wanted to attract his attention.

I didn't expect to get close to Xiao Sheng, but I saw a slender woman in Tsing Yi blowing Xiao in the moonlight among the flower clusters in the corner of the lake.

The side face is somewhat blocked by flowers, looming.

The breeze blew her hair and dress, and she looked more and more beautiful and dusty.

Beauty is like a flower across the clouds, the more you can't see it, the more itchy.

The empress looked sideways at the obsession in the emperor's eyes and hooked the corners of her mouth.

Soon the song ended, and the piano and Xiao Sheng stopped together.

The beauty walked out with the corner of her skirt and prepared to leave.

A face is uncovered by flowers, and it is cold and dusty in the moonlight.

Before the emperor could take a second look, the beauty turned around and walked away with light steps.

The emperor looked at the curling back of the beauty, and whispered, "The people on the edge are like the moon, and the frost and snow are condensed on the wrists." ”

The two fathers-in-law who followed behind them looked at each other silently, and it seemed that there was another newcomer in the palace.

The queen chuckled, "It turned out to be pomelo white, and she has been blowing a good hand since she was a child." ”

The emperor said seemingly casually, "This woman doesn't seem to have been seen before. ”

The queen explained, "Her mother is my godmother, who saved me when I was a child, and their family finally entered Beijing, so I summoned Yubai to stay in the palace for a few days to accompany me." ”

"Is it called Yuzu Bai, a very special name."

The queen said softly, "Yes, it's called Jiang Yubai." ”

The two didn't mention Jiang Yubai's matter, it seemed that it was really just a chance encounter under the moon.

It's just that when the emperor left, he looked back at the clusters of fresh flowers blooming under the moonlight.

In his mind, Jiang Yubai Su was holding Xiao in his hand, standing there coldly.
