Chapter 9: The Queen's Birthday Banquet 5
As soon as we stepped out of the door of the main hall, Rong Haoxuan and Mu Ling were greeted in front of us, and the three of us quietly retreated to the side. "Song Liu." Mu Ling's call seems to have always been very good.
I looked up at the two of them and smiled lightly, "Lord, princess." Rong Haoxuan nodded to me and entered the hall, while Mu Ling smiled slightly and said, "I'll come out after I ask for peace, you wait for me, I have something to tell you." After speaking, he also stepped into the main hall.
"Song Liu, are you familiar with King Ding'an and the princess?" Xiang Han looked at me stunned.
I was stunned for a while, then shook my head and said, "No, the princess and I have known each other since I was a show girl, and Prince Ding'an will know me because of the princess's relationship." ”
"I see, I heard the princess say that just now, I thought you were very familiar with it!" Xiang Han smiled and shouted on the side.
Xiyun pulled me aside, leaned over my ear and whispered, "Song Liu, I really don't understand you." King Ding'an, it's because the princess knows you, he obviously treats you differently, I can see ......" In case she continued, I covered Xiyun's mouth tightly with my hand, "Don't talk nonsense in the future, this is the palace." I glanced at her and warned.
"Come here, I have something to tell you." Helian Liuyun appeared silently behind me, and a sudden remark startled Xiyun and me, and we thought that someone had overheard our conversation.
I looked at him blankly, "I have nothing to say to you." ”
"You...... Okay, okay, just don't listen. Helian Liuyun stared at me with a stinky face, and then glanced at me and walked towards the hall, if someone of his status would have anything to say, he must have asked me to do things for him. Now that I have Feng Zhaoyi's protection and Yulan has Rong Haoxuan's protection, I am not afraid of his threat.
"The emperor has arrived." As soon as a loud shout came out, the palace maids and eunuchs outside the hall also stopped what they were doing and fell to the ground one after another, "Emperor Sheng'an, long live, long live, long live, long live." Xiyun and I also knelt on the ground and bowed our heads. Queen Mu and all the concubines came out of the main hall, "The concubines greet the emperor." ”
The emperor showed his dragon face, "Let's get up!" As soon as I finished approving the recital, I came over to take a look, the queen is really lively here! Empress Mu stepped forward and said softly: "The emperor still found time to live in the Phoenix Palace despite his busy schedule, and the concubines are really very comforted!" ”
The emperor chuckled a few times, glanced at everyone, and his eyes stayed on Feng Zhaoyi, "Why did Concubine Ai come over, I remember that you never like to be lively." ”
Feng Zhaoyi walked to the emperor enchantingly, "Today is the birthday of the queen's mother, and the concubines should come to congratulate, but the emperor, you are so busy and take the time to come, I am really happy for the queen." ”
The emperor's smile was even bigger, "It's rare that you came over today to congratulate the queen!" In the future, it is my greatest comfort that the queen and the concubine can get along peacefully in the harem. ”
The queen walked up to Feng Zhaoyi and took Feng Zhaoyi's hand, "The concubine and sister have long been like sisters, please rest assured, the emperor." The concubines will not forget their responsibilities and will take care of the entire harem for the emperor. ”
Feng Zhaoyi's smile was not blinded by Queen Mu's fake kind words, but smiled more peacefully. It seems that in front of the emperor, even if there is discord, it will not be revealed. The women of the harem are really powerful, especially when acting.
I couldn't listen to what they said later, but I saw the emperor enter the main hall with the support of the queen and the concubine.
The three of us retreated to the courtyard, I looked around, the palace maids and eunuchs of Qifeng Palace were still preparing for the evening banquet, I sighed, the life of the slave can only be like this. In the palace, the master is so busy that he can't move, and some old people can't return to their hometown in the palace.
Looking back at the red mahogany door of the main hall, the people inside were all high-ranking people, and they couldn't help but smile self-deprecatingly. Mu Ling came from inside, and when he saw me in the courtyard, he smiled at me.
Slowly walked up to me, "Song Liu, I have something to say to you." Then I walked to the corridor on the other side, looking at Xiyun and Xianghan with puzzled faces, I glanced at them and followed Mu Ling's footsteps.
