The Mid-Autumn Festival Banquet, the annual banquet of the Dayuan Palace.

At this time of year, the concubines and official ladies who have not served the emperor in the palace can come to the stage to show their talents.

The palace has prepared extremely special prizes for the first place, but what the specific thing is is different from year to year, and it can only be known when the first place is determined before the emperor personally presents the award.

Last year, the first place was a rare night pearl as big as a head, and the previous year, it was a stinky black pig that had been pickled for a hundred years as a tribute from foreign countries.

This kind of excitement like opening a blind box has attracted many official ladies to sign up.

In addition to the official ladies who show their talents, those invited officials will also bring their unmarried sons.

In order to facilitate the young ladies to show their talents, they can communicate privately and pick a satisfactory daughter-in-law.

However, this matter must not be put on the table, after all, the emperor will also choose a few women who look at him in this banquet.

To put it bluntly, these officials can only choose among the rest of the emperor's choice, so even if they fancy any woman, they can't show it.

If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, no one wants to compete with the emperor for a woman.

Even if it is a Mid-Autumn Festival banquet where monarchs and ministers enjoy together, there is still a hierarchy that should be there.

The minister of the court and his family came to the fixed place early, and the eunuchs brought them into the music building in batches and positions according to their status.

In previous years, only officials above the second rank could bring their families to participate at this time, but this year, under the special explanation of the emperor Xiao Shenze, the official rank was relaxed to the third grade.

Coincidentally, Lin Bangtang's father, Lin Shangshu, happened to be the third official of the third grade, and took Lin Zhiyuan, the daughter of the Lin family, and Lin Shengze, the son of the Lin family, to mix in this crowd.

By the time Lin Zhiyuan and the others entered, the seat they were sitting at the back.

However, these did not disappoint Lin Shangshu and others, but because they participated in the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet for the first time, their eyes were full of novelty.

Over there, the music building sat down in turn, and here Lin Bangtang finally arrived with the setting moon and Wenxia.

"Little master, there are many houses and roads on this side of Lelou, and it is dark this day, if the little master wants to go anywhere, he must bring a slave and maid."

Before getting close to the music building, Xiyue explained a little uneasily, and even revealed unnoticed fear in her words.

These palace maids are not familiar with anywhere, and the only one who can find the way with their eyes closed is this Yuelou.

But the reason for this, she didn't want to say it, and she was scared that the little master would not play well in the future, and it would be bad.

"yes, I know."

Lin Wantang nodded lightly, looking at the music building that looked like day not far away at night, and his eyes were clear.

At this time in previous years, there was no shortage of lost official ladies or concubines who had just entered the palace.

If it's just lost, it's okay, I'm afraid I'm afraid that I'll meet those unmarried official sons, and I'll look at each other!

If they have never been married, it can be regarded as a good match, in case they see that it is the emperor's woman, then things will be exciting.

And this kind of absurd thing about the son of an official and a newcomer to the harem has been cuckolded by the emperor of every dynasty.

However, the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet is a traditional festival, even if the emperor is dissatisfied, it cannot be canceled against the ancestors.

Therefore, in order to prevent the cuckold from happening, the relevant punishment can be said to have reached the peak of Dayuan.

And in terms of policy, it is ordered that all the palace maids in the harem must be familiar with the road of this music building, if you take your own master to get lost, and meet someone who should not be touched, the first person to lose her head is the palace maid around her.

Silk and bamboo are pleasant, and Lin Wangtang, whose thoughts were interrupted, walked to the position of the concubine with the setting moon, and at a glance, he saw Xiao Yunzhan sitting very closely.

This distance was so close that Lin Wantang's brows furrowed slightly, her position was in the far corner of the concubine, Xiao Yunzhan was alone and had no family.

And her position is only an arm's length away from Xiao Yunzhan, and she looks more like Xiao Yunzhan's family.

This abnormal placement made Lin Wangtang feel alarmed, after all, the harem has strict rules, and those subordinates will definitely not make this kind of basic mistake.

The only explanation is that someone deliberately signaled that it was placed like this.

Those who can summon the harem palace eunuchs to change the location of this music building must be not low.

Thinking of this, she stared at Xiao Yunzhan in front of her with seven points of suspicion.

Feeling Lin Bangtang's gaze, Xiao Yunzhan subconsciously turned his head and saw Lin Bangtang sitting on the seat, wrapped in a plain white cloak.

This kind of dress is very uneye-catching among concubines, but Lin Wangtang exudes a temperament that rejects people thousands of miles away, but people can't help but want to get close and peep.

Human beings are born with some backbones, and they maintain a keen curiosity about things that cannot be seen through.

What is easy to get, discarded.

If you can't ask for it, you will think about it.

The four eyes stared, Lin Wantang bowed his head slightly, and the look of doubt in his eyes did not change.

Now that she has his handle in her hand, she naturally won't be afraid.

Seeing that Lin Wantang was so close to him, Xiao Yunzhan was also a little curious, and the doubts that flashed in her eyes made her keenly catch them.

Not him!

In just a moment, Lin Wangtang confirmed the guess in his heart.

In this way, the only one who can do this kind of thing is Xiao Shenze himself.

Thinking of this, Lin Wantang's face was completely gloomy, what was Xiao Shenze thinking about rewarding clothes and jewelry and arranging this kind of position?

Thinking of this, Lin Wantang unconsciously glanced at the still vacant position belonging to Xiao Shenze, and guessed his plan based on his understanding of Xiao Shenze in his previous life.

The eye interaction between Lin Bangtang and Xiao Yunzhan is extremely inconspicuous in this lively music building, but there is one person who does not fall at all.

Lin Wangtang, who was deep in thought, suddenly felt an unkind gaze, she looked back, but saw a familiar face.

Even if it was far away, even in this crowded and lively Mid-Autumn Festival, she still saw it at a glance.

Her sister-in-law, Lin Zhiyuan, she replaced the person who entered the palace.

Subsequently, Lin Bangtang saw his father next to Lin Zhiyuan and his eldest brother Lin Yusheng.

Seeing this, Lin Wangtang's brows furrowed even more, and he had a bad premonition.

Her father is a third-rank official in the court, and the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet can only be attended by ministers above the second rank, so it stands to reason that they can't participate in this banquet!

Not to mention this life, even in the previous life, she became a favorite concubine, and they were not good enough to participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival.

"For this year's Mid-Autumn Festival, the emperor specially decreed that the three products can be brought with their families."

Seeing Lin Wantang's shock and incomprehension, Xiao Yunzhan spoke softly.

And Lin Zhiyuan here looked at Xiao Yunzhan, who had been cold-faced since she entered, and talked in a low voice after the plain white cloak woman came in.

Although she didn't know what to say, the proximity of them really made her jealous.

Lin Bangtang has a veil on her face, a cloak to cover her figure, and she is not dressed like she is far away from home, so Lin Zhiyuan, who has not seen her for a long time, naturally did not recognize her.

Feeling Lin Zhiyuan's jealousy, Lin Wangtang hooked the corners of his mouth under the veil.
