"The Queen Mother has arrived!"

With the eunuch's singing and harmony, everyone at the banquet stood solemnly to welcome the arrival of the Queen Mother.

Everyone only saw the Queen Mother, who had not appeared in front of people for a long time, holding the hand of a young woman and walking into the banquet.

The woman was extremely beautiful, although she was wearing a plain dress, and there were only a few pearl hairpins in her hair, but she was more lined with her black hair and snow skin, and her complexion was graceful, like a hibiscus out of the water.

The Queen Mother sat at the right hand of the Emperor, and the woman stood beside her.

This palace banquet, in the name of the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet, was not divided.

Many school-age families looked straight at each other and couldn't help but privately inquire about the origin of this woman:

“…… Is it the daughter of Xuanping Hou Xinzhi who returned home, or the closed disciple of the late Xuanqing Nuguan of Jinxian Guan, Miao Ling Zhenren......"

"It was the one who was treated poorly by Xuanping Hou, who should have married to the Cheng'en Mansion, but as a result, Xuanping Hou secretly replaced it with the daughter who couldn't get married......"

"I heard that he was raised in the coffin shop, and he dealt with corpses all day long, and he became famous in Dali Temple, and he helped Dali Temple solve several unsolved cases......

“…… is good-looking and talented, but now she is a female official of Fengyi who was personally promoted by the Queen Mother, which girl from a family has such courtesy, and I don't know who she will marry into in the future, the Queen Mother values it, that is what the Dou family values......

In less than two teas, everyone passed on Shen Lingxi's identity and deeds.

Because of the Empress Dowager's promotion, the emperor, the empress and Zhao Guifei, who was the most favored by the emperor, praised Shen Lingxi.

The Queen Mother's illness only improved after Shen Lingxi entered the palace.

The emperor gave many rewards with "meritorious service to the sick", and the queen and Zhao Guifei naturally followed.

For a while, Shen Lingxi became the most popular woman in this palace banquet.

Even the most favored princess Changle and the county lord of Qinghui in the past were compared to each other.

It stands to reason that on such an occasion, during the period of Xuanping Hou's filial piety, there is no need to participate, and he cannot participate.

But she couldn't stand it, and the queen mother deliberately asked the queen to set up a link to pray for the deceased elders at this banquet.

After Shen Ji, as the most favored hero, he had to recite the scriptures together with those monks and Taoists in the ceremony, so he had to sit in the banquet.

He has lived for most of his life, and he has never felt the taste of "sitting on pins and needles" on such an occasion, and his heart is on fire, but he can't show it.

While listening to the sour compliments on his faces:

"Xuanping Hou has a beloved daughter who has the blue eyes of the Queen Mother, which is really a blessing."

"Back then, the Hou Ye had a meritorious role in saving the driver, and now his beloved daughter has a meritorious service to the Queen Mother, and the Xuanping Hou Mansion is a lucky star!"

At the same time, he had to listen to the whispers of others behind his back.

"I spoiled a fish, abandoned the pearls, and I don't know what to think."

"I heard that this is the original spouse, and the one who married out was a daughter born in the outer room, the family is in a mess, the inner clothes are not repaired, and something will happen sooner or later."

"This girl entered the palace to serve the Queen Mother, and she really got out of the sea of suffering......"

And Shen Yuyao, who was sitting not far away, was no better, and was constantly compared with Shen Lingxi, who was the top leader.

In the past, it was clear that she was the focus of attention at this banquet.

But now...... was harmed by Shen Lingxi to marry a man who had no achievements, not to mention, but on this occasion, he would be judged by others.

Shen Yuyao originally felt guilty about Shen Lingxi.

But when she found out on the wedding night that the person who married her was not Mu Huai'an, but Mu Huaijie, she realized that she was calculated by Shen Lingxi!

She hated it......

But now, what about hate?

Shen Lingxi is already the most favored person next to the Queen Mother, how could she be stupid enough to rush to oppose her.

Not even a trace of jealousy and resentment dare not be revealed, lest they be looked down upon.

Shen Yuyao clenched the handkerchief in her hand, hid the emotions in her eyes, and looked at Shen Lingxi with a look of pride and honor for her sister in the eyes of everyone.

secretly decided in her heart that one day, she would take back everything that belonged to her and trample Shen Lingxi under her feet, just like Shen Lingxi did to her today......

*

At the top, Shen Lingxi, who was standing beside the Queen Mother, looked at his nose and nose, and he didn't care about the eyes of everyone at the banquet.

I didn't dare to look around.

There is no other reason, in her eyes, on top of this banquet, behind the brightly dressed nobles, sparse and sparse will follow some dead souls.

Most of those who died in vain have never been taken away by anyone, and their deaths are so miserable that people can't bear to look at them directly.

The more people are in high positions, the more unknown selfishness there are, and the more souls behind them.

With Shen Lingxi's current identity, he can't help every grievance, so he can only choose to turn a blind eye.

All her attention fell on the two vacant seats not far away.

According to the seat order, one is the position of the eldest princess, and next to the eldest princess is the position of the imperial grandson Chu Yan.

Previously, she specifically asked Xiaodouzi to inquire that the eldest princess had entered the palace today, and no one showed up at the banquet at the moment, probably in the Yutan Palace.

Concubine Zhao is dedicated to worshipping the Buddha and has never participated in this kind of banquet, not to mention that the Queen Mother is coming, she is even more unlikely to come.

There are many people at the palace banquet today, and the palace ban is not as strict as usual, she may be able to find an opportunity to go to the vicinity of Yutan Palace to have a look, maybe she can meet those two dead souls.

The Queen Mother originally planned to bring Shen Lingxi to this banquet, so that this girl, who was treated poorly at home, would also be in the limelight, and by the way, she would see for herself what her imperial grandson was thinking about this girl.

Unexpectedly, Liulang didn't attend, and Shen Lingxi's eyes still glanced at Liulang's seat from time to time......

The Queen Mother thought for a moment and smiled.

She covered her face with a fan and said to Shen Lingxi: "Go what you want to do, let Xiaodouzi accompany you." ”

Shen Lingxi only asked the Queen Mother to let her go to find Xuetuan's body, responded in a low voice, and withdrew from the palace banquet with Xiaodouzi.

Xiaodouzi took out a white jade waist card and handed it to Shen Lingxi like a treasure, "Girl, as long as you hold this waist card, you can walk freely in the harem, where do we start looking for it now?" ”

"You give me the belt card." Shen Lingxi looked for an excuse, "I still have a few pieces of rune paper, which have fallen in the Shoukang Palace, you help me take them to the Imperial Garden, and I am waiting for you in the Imperial Garden." ”

Xiaodouzi didn't doubt him, smiled and responded, handed the waist card to Shen Lingxi, and went.

Yutan Palace is next to the Imperial Garden, and those who retire from the palace banquet to change their clothes and sober up generally walk in the direction of the Imperial Garden.

Therefore, even if Shen Lingxi went to wander around the Yutan Palace, no one would be suspicious.

She tucked her waist card into her sleeve and walked in the direction of Yutan Palace.

"Meow...... Meow ......"

The snow group did not follow, stopped in front of her, and meowed.

If you don't follow it, it will keep calling for a battle.

Shen Lingxi knew that he wanted to let himself go to the East Palace, and he didn't have a way for a while, thinking that there might be no one on the East Palace side at this time, so he simply said: "Let's go, you lead the way, but say it first, I won't go over the wall, you have to find me a way to get in." ”

"Meow." Xue Tuan screamed, turned around and ran in the direction of the East Palace......
