Chapter Ninety-Eight: Fighting for the Wind
When he arrived in the palace, in order to avoid suspicion, Feng Xuche asked the palace maid to take Yueya to the banquet, and he went to Cining Palace alone to see the queen mother.
This is the first time Yueya has entered the palace, the palace is full of lights, the guards patrolling back and forth are walking neatly, and there are many palace maids and eunuchs preparing things for the banquet Walking back and forth anxiously.
Yueya trembled and was taken in by the palace maid.
The banquet is held in the Huayang Palace next to the Imperial Garden, it is the peach banquet that the Queen Mother has to hold every year, there is a peach blossom forest in the harem, and the peach trees planted in it are rare varieties introduced from all over the world, and there are more than 100 kinds of peach trees.
Those peaches are not only juicy but also extra sweet, in the spring when the peach blossoms are full of peach blossoms, when the peach blossoms are gone, those peaches will emerge, June and July are the most prosperous.
Yueya's eyes all fell on the palace maids who walked in with peaches, and she was a little eye-opener, these peaches looked so good, but I don't know how they tasted?
"Miss Yueya, the positions inside are arranged according to the positions of each palace and each house, you must not sit wrong, the corner is the position where there is no arrangement, there are many people in the palace, and if you are not careful, you will lose your head."
The palace maid kindly reminded Yueya to thank her and walked in directly, and then found an inconspicuous place to sit down.
Three groups of two young ladies dressed up in various mansions, were talking eloquently, not noticing the moon in the corner.
Those who don't know must think that this is a banquet that simply eats peaches, watches peaches, and picks peaches, but those who know the inside story can know the queen mother's good intentions.
It was a blind date banquet specially prepared for her nephews and grandchildren.
If there is a favorite girl, the princes of each palace will choose the best peach to give to the favorite girl, if the girls have a good impression of the man will eat the peach in person, if not, they will find a reason to refuse, which also avoids the embarrassment of rejection.
Yueya didn't know that it had this meaning, and she thought that she would finally enter the palace, so she would take a few peaches back to Yi'er, Chun'er, and grandmother to taste.
With a male duck voice, "The Queen Mother has arrived!" ”
This sound made the Huayang Palace, which was in the midst of the noise, instantly quiet, and everyone got out of the way and knelt down.
"Queen Mother Chitose Chitose Chitose."
Yueya also knelt down, she didn't dare to raise her head, until the Queen Mother spoke, "Everyone, please get up, today is a family banquet, everyone doesn't need to be restrained, you should eat and drink, you just want to be happy today." ”
"Thank you, Empress Dowager."
Yueya followed everyone to get up, and then saw several princes sitting down one after another, except for Feng Xuche, she didn't know any of them, after all, the three princes had seen her wearing a mask before, and she didn't wear a mask today, so she couldn't recognize who it was now.
Her eyes looked around the princes, until she felt an unkind gaze, she was frightened by Feng Xuche, and secretly scolded this man in her heart, always looking at her, as if she owed him a lot of money.
Hurriedly lowered her head and sat down in her place, and the Queen Mother said: "The banquet is about to begin, the princes of the palace must remember the purpose of coming here tonight!" ”
"It's Grandma Huang."
"Little Lizi, let's start!"
After the eunuch replied respectfully, he beckoned the ladies of the various provinces to come up and perform their talents.
Yueya looked up at the kind face of the Queen Mother, and couldn't help sighing, she deserves to be the Queen Mother, this skin is really well maintained, if it weren't for a few gray hairs on her head, she would even think that this is a person of the same age as Xiao's mother.
However, the six princes above are the prince of Jinse, Yueya thought that the third prince was the one next to Feng Xuche, she quietly looked over, and couldn't help but be surprised, these three princes are worthy of being the second most beautiful man in the capital alongside Feng Xuche, they are indeed very good-looking, and their whole body exudes a warm momentum, compared with Feng Xuche.
One cold and one warm, Yueya didn't understand the purpose of letting him come to the banquet, and was absent-minded along the way.
Her small movements naturally did not escape Feng Xuche's eyes, and inexplicably because her eyes wandered on the third prince, he felt uncomfortable, and took a sip of wine a little sullenly.
At this moment, a mocking voice sounded in my ears: "Why are you here?" ”
Yueya raised her head and looked at Jiang Jing, she instantly secretly screamed that it was not good, she really didn't expect Jiang Jing to be there tonight, it is not surprising to think about it this way, after all, Jiang Jing is also an unmarried woman, and she is the daughter of a general, so she should naturally participate in this kind of banquet.
Jiang Jing's voice was very loud, attracting the attention of many people who watched talents, and even the Queen Mother came over.
Yueya said calmly: "Miss Jiang, someone invited me to the banquet. ”
"As for you, a divorced man, who will invite you, you know the true purpose of this feast."
"Peach feast!"
"Hillbilly, you don't know at first glance that a person like you is not suitable for this kind of banquet."
"Then why do you think I'm not suitable?"
"A divorced person, with no family background, and still living at your ex-husband's house, what kind of face do you have to come to the palace banquet?"
Yueya smiled, "I didn't steal or rob, and I was someone else on leave, why am I not qualified to participate in the banquet?" What's more, the Xiao family owes me a debt, what's the problem with me living in the Xiao family? Xiao's family has no opinions, do you have an opinion as an outsider? I don't know, I think I eat your Jiang family and live in your Jiang family. ”
"You!"
Feng Xuche's eyes were slightly cold, his expression was still indifferent, he didn't speak, and his understanding of Yueya, she would definitely surprise him.
The ladies next to them whispered, and someone was curious: "Jiang Jing, who is this woman!" How come we've never met? ”
"Yes! It's pretty beautiful, I don't know which house it's from. ”
Jiang Jing laughed loudly: "She is the person who was divorced in Xiaofu, Mrs. Xiao Jingyan." ”
"It turned out to be her, it's amazing, this kind of person also wants to become a relative of the emperor."
"Who said no, what a noble identity the prince is, how can she think about it, not to mention that she has slept with someone, who doesn't dislike dirty."
"I don't know who brought this kind of person in, it's really tasteless."
Yueya didn't laugh angrily, she said lightly: "Then you have to ask the third prince." ”
As soon as he said this, the three princes, who had always been indifferent and didn't like these jealous tricks, also came and looked at Yueya with interest, Feng Xuche was still expressionless.
"What? The Three Princes. ”
"How could the third prince invite you, what are you?"
