Chapter 32: Their Palace Banquet Is Really Plotting!
Xiao Chuchu was in the emperor's arms, listening to him praise his grandfather, but he was a little fugue.
[Strange, originally my grandfather didn't find out about King Liao's rebellion. 】
The old man of the Liu family stood upside down for a moment.
Xiao Yunzhou raised his eyebrows.
But soon Xiao Chuchu hehehe, hey, hey, [But who wants the emperor's father, on a whim, gave his grandfather a pot of nine-colored peonies. 】
[The Liu family has been farming for three generations, serving the things in the soil. My grandfather got the peony not to enjoy the flowers, how could it be nine petals and nine colors when I studied it directly. 】
[So, a drink and a peck are life! ] 】
[Cause and effect can change at any time, this time thanks to the emperor's father for his grandfather's flowers, the reward is good! ] My ancestors have not forgotten the tradition of their ancestors serving the crops in the field~】
The corners of Xiao Yunzhou and Master Liu's mouths rose at the same time.
My heart is in place!
- It's all my wisdom!
- It's all old men who understand flowers and plants!
Both of them were very satisfied with the praise they received from Xiao Chuchu, and at the same time they were in a good mood.
"Elder Liu, this Golden Festival palace banquet, you enter the palace early. I have something to tell you to do. Xiao Yunzhou quickly returned to the topic.
The old man of the Liu family was shocked.
Sure enough, the emperor could also hear Xiao Gege's heart!
He will have to be more careful in the future.
You can't just fool around, no, the emperor.
Thinking about it like this, he retired, but he didn't expect to meet Liu Concubine and the Fifth Prince in the side hall.
"Niangniang, His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince, you are also here?" The old man of the Liu family was surprised.
Concubine Liu and the five princes all coughed lightly.
They have been eavesdropping for a long time, and they have been thinking about whether the old man of the Liu family can also hear Xiao Gege's heart.
But after listening to Xiao Gege's words, they dispelled their thoughts.
It turned out that because the Liu family was tending to the crops, they discovered that the peony was abnormal.
Liu Concubine and the Fifth Prince know it well at the moment, the old man of the Liu family is lucky to step on the shit, and he seized the opportunity to see everything!
He deserves to be praised by the emperor this time.
"Dad, you've worked hard."
"Grandfather, I will learn from you in the future."
Master Liu blushed for a moment.
What's wrong?
What's going on?
Lunch.
Xiao Yunzhou used it with them, kept silent about what would happen to the Gold Festival, and didn't mention anything about King Liao and others.
He didn't say it, Liu Concubine and the five princes pretended not to know.
After the whole meal, I talked about how many times Xiao Gege eats milk and urine every day, the color and amount are abnormal, how he sleeps, and the meal passes with harmony.
"Lan Niang, I am wronged that you will continue to live in the side hall of Donghua Palace first."
"When spring opens after the year, I will arrange a new seat for the main palace for you."
The level of the concubine is that she can be the master of a palace, which is much better than being attached to Concubine Min before and can only live in the side hall.
After all, it's a big house.
The lord of the first palace doesn't have to worry about whether he will offend the rest of Donghua Palace if he speaks.
Concubine Liu responded with a smile, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”
The fifth prince also had a smile on his face.
They knew that the main palace assigned this time would never be bad, and it might be better than Donghua Palace.
As long as the gold festival is awarded to prove that the lord of the Liu family admonishes King Liao to rebel, the emperor will give a heavy reward.
The Liu family is no longer the same as it used to be!
*
Soon, it was the day of the gold festival.
"Sister Liu, I really can't bear to let you move away after the year." Concubine Min sighed for a long time, and while holding an emerald green Shu satin brocade on Concubine Liu's body.
She wants to eat meat in the future, and there is no one to accompany her!
Hey, only Concubine Liu will persuade her to eat meat, and it is good to be plump and healthy.
In just ten days, Concubine Min felt that she had a decades-long friendship with Concubine Liu.
I can't help it, I don't want to separate, what should I do?
Concubine Min said, her eyes were red, "But you live in my side hall after all, the place where you live is too small." And you are now on the same level as me, and there is no reason for you to live in my side hall anymore. ”
Ay.
I wanted to cry uncomfortably, but Concubine Min didn't overturn her head to wipe her tears.
Who understands? Since she became friends with Concubine Liu, she was able to hide in Concubine Liu's house all day.
Concubine Liu doesn't like to read Buddhist scriptures, only read books!
"Sister Min." Liu Lanniang couldn't cry or laugh, she was younger than Concubine Min, and as a result, Concubine Min, like a child, had to cry when she was separated from her playmates for a short time.
"I'm not moving outside the palace to live, I might just be across the courtyard wall from you?"
"I can't say, I'll be assigned to the empty Lanxi Palace next to you."
"That's the best!" Concubine Min was in good spirits when she heard this, "It's just today's palace banquet, I'll talk to the queen!" ”
The queen is not a good person either.
Concubine Liu took a deep breath, but quickly suppressed the vigilance of the queen in her heart, and turned her mind to the emperor's banquet for hundreds of officials.
I don't know, did the hussar general enter the palace.
Their deliberations are today.
"Sister Min, I'm holding Xiao Gege, let's hurry up and go to the palace banquet."
"Haven't you started yet, so early?"
Of course!
Go to the palace banquet to eat melons, bUShi, nervous rebellion, go and see.
Concubine Liu is more active than ever, and Concubine Min has a good relationship with her, so she follows.
There are two palace banquets for today's gold festival.
One is the Kunning Palace, where the queen entertains the harem concubines and ministers' wives.
The other place is the Chonghua Palace, where the emperor entertains the ministers and the royal children in Beijing.
When Concubine Liu and Concubine Min arrived at Kunning Palace, no one arrived.
A banquet was held in the main hall of Kunning Palace, and the long table was arranged one by one according to the grade of the concubines.
The cold pot and cold dishes have not been served.
Except for a few concubines who were good friends with the queen and chatted with the queen in the apse of Kunning Palace, most of the rest were still dressing up.
"Queen Mother, Concubine Liu and Concubine Min have arrived."
The queen was stunned, "So early? ”
Concubine Min likes to chant Buddha, she is quiet by nature, and when she is fine, she does not come to her side as a queen.
Not from her team.
Concubine Liu, who had a low position before, did not perform much in previous years.
"Can you see clearly? Concubine Liu, Concubine Min, who is in front? ”
The queen narrowed her eyes.
The palace maid whispered in her ear, "Concubine Liu's steps are a little anxious. ”
That's Concubine Liu, who persuaded Concubine Min to come to the palace for a banquet earlier today!
Concubine Liu has just been promoted, is this showing favor to her, the queen?
"Go and get someone in." The queen's mood suddenly brightened.
Concubine Liu was silent before, but now that she is seen by the emperor, she is not arrogant or indulgent, and she still has this queen in her eyes.
It's a good one!
The queen smiled and watched Concubine Liu and Concubine Min enter the apse.
"Come, give me a seat. Two younger sisters, there is a cold on the road, so drink hot tea to warm up first. "The queen is dignified and kind.
Concubine Liu knew that this was a ruthless person, smiled and thanked her, and sat on the chair by the door, farthest from the queen.
The queen nodded again and again in her heart, Concubine Liu is really deferential.
"Queen Mother, the concubine came with news, saying that she was not feeling well and would not come today."
The queen snapped and put the cup in her hand down heavily.
This Fucha concubine was disliked by the emperor, and her tail was still cocked to the sky!
Look at the Liu Concubine!
Compared with the two, the queen saw that Concubine Liu, who came to the palace early to give her face, became more and more pleasing to the eye.
The queen suppressed her anger, and soon ordered the palace maid to serve snacks and chat with the concubines who arrived early.
As soon as she chatted, she found that this Liu Concubine was very honest, and her unlime personality was worse than that of Concubine Min!
Concubine Liu didn't chat with other concubines during the whole process, and every time she said something as a queen, she smiled and nodded.
The more the queen looked at Concubine Liu, the more satisfied she became, this was to give her face, and she was not noisy at all.
Even if she has been summoned by the emperor several times recently, she is still so low-key, which is really commendable!
Good, very good!
The queen was satisfied, "Everyone eats more today, I have always treated you as my sister." You don't have to be nervous. ”
The other concubines were busy and chattering.
Only Concubine Liu kept her eyes level and nodded cordially at the queen with a smile.
The queen secretly appreciated it, Concubine Liu knew that she was inferior, and she put herself as the queen first, and the smile on her face was even worse.
But she didn't notice Concubine Liu's body, and leaned back slightly towards Grandma Zhang Jia, who was standing behind her seat.
The ears were almost attached to Zhang Jia's grandmother's arms, the body of Xiao Ge Chuchu.
[Whew, let me turn on the live broadcast and see where the hussar general is!] Wow, it turns out that he arrived at the palace banquet so early! 】
[As soon as I came, I gave the eunuch of the emperor's father, a little look that was secretly rubbed! ] 】
[Whew, the eunuch Bingbi saw it and secretly gestured back to him~]
[Ah, my grandfather is hiding behind the screen and secretly observing them! 】
[Oh roar, the emperor's father is also hiding behind the screen to peek at their contact! ] 】
Concubine Liu's eyes were straight, and she kept smiling at the queen.
Nodding occasionally.
With all my thoughts, I have already flown to the place where my daughter's voice is pointing!
And then what, and then what?
After the queen said a few words, she glanced at Concubine Liu, and saw her consistent restrained and obedient look, and she became more and more satisfied!
