Chapter 32: The Queen's Birthday Banquet

"What do you want from me?" Meng Xiu looked at the humble Nangong Yu Heng, a little puzzled: "You are the younger brother of the queen's mother, and you are a new tanhua, you shouldn't be so impatient." ”

"There is nothing else to think about in the humble position," Nangong Yu Heng slowly raised his head: "Lord Shangshu, the humble position just wants my sister to have something to rely on in the palace." ”

"Since that's the case......" Meng Xiu looked at the sincere Nangong Yu Heng and sighed: "This time Yuan Yunyang was killed, you can go with Lord An." ”

"Master Xie. ”

"Wait," Meng Xiu suddenly beckoned: "The queen's illness has not improved yet, when you go to Tongzhou, remember to bring some of my pure grass." ”

"My lord......" Nangong Yu Heng wanted to speak and stopped: "You...... Acquaintance with my sister?"

"If it weren't for the queen's mother...... Meng Xiu sighed: "It seems that the concubine of the filial piety emperor will have a harder life." ”

Lin Zaifeng has been suspicious of Jin Chen since he talked to Meng Xiu, but Jin Chen seems to have no desires and no desires, as if he is just in the palace for food and clothing.

Until the queen's birthday banquet was approaching, Jin Chen finally made his first request to Lin Zaifeng after coming to the palace......

"Lord Wang, can the contemptible person accompany you to the trip?" Jin Chen's voice sounded very gentle, as if he had no confidence, and it seemed to be pleading.

"What?" Lin Zaifeng frowned: "Jin Chen, it seems that you have not asked for anything since you came to the palace, but you have relieved your worries for this king." Why do you suddenly bring up such a thing?"

"Lord Wang," Jin Chen replied truthfully, "There is an old acquaintance in the palace who is a palace maid, because the identity of the contemptible witch has not been seen for a long time. Jin Chen does not want to enter the palace with the prince as a slave, but only hopes to hide in the car, once he enters the palace, he has his own way. ”

"This ......" Lin Zaifeng thought that Jin Chen was a witch, and looked at him with extremely sincere eyes, and nodded after a pause: "Okay." ”

Jin Chen thanked Lin Zaifeng and then retreated, in fact, Lin Zaifeng had something more uncomfortable - the emperor asked Su Zili to celebrate the queen's birthday.

Su Zili didn't speak after knowing this, but just nodded. She knew that Lin Zaifeng was in an embarrassing situation, and she had already troubled him, so she didn't want to embarrass him anymore.

"What is the girl going to sing?" I don't know when, Su Zili, who was sitting alone on the stone bench, heard the voice of a young girl, and when she looked back, it was a girl of the same age as herself: "Miss Su, in Xiamo'er, is the doctor in the house." ”

"Hello......" Su Zili looked at the girl vigilantly, this girl looked at Qingxiu, and there was some beauty that couldn't tell whether she was sick or delicate: "Miss Mo'er." ”

"The queen's birthday banquet is not easy to deal with," Mo'er smiled: "Miss Su has a suitable play?"

"I haven't thought about it yet," Su Zili said with some worry: "What advice does Miss Mo'er have?"

"The emperor has a little habit," Mo'er smiled: "I like to listen to some simple things in the common people's parents, and I also like to listen to some women who are loyal to find a husband or something...... Especially "Meeting in the Flower Pavilion", which he used to ask the actors to sing. ”

""Meeting in the Flower Pavilion?" Su Zili frowned: "Doesn't it seem dignified and serious enough?"

"What's this," Mo'er said mysteriously, "Miss Su, your play is sung at the last family banquet, except for the queen's concubines, that is, the prince, the county lord, the princess and the emperor." ”

"This ......"

"It's just a few words," Mo'er sighed: "There are so many programs, you don't have to worry." But it is a reward, and it must be indispensable...... After all, as soon as the current emperor sees you, he will think of the original concubine. ”

Since the sixteenth birthday banquet of Princess Kang Li before, the early cold country has been worried about internal and external troubles, and the emperor has no thoughts. Now the queen's birthday banquet is also celebrated because of the pacification of the rebellion in Yuzhou and the postponement of Cao Qi's incident.

Emperor Renrui looked at the ministers and relatives of the emperor who came and seemed to be smiling.

The queen was just recovering from her illness and could not bear the cold, so the ministers left one by one after celebrating, and the birthday banquet was moved into the Xianhe Hall as a family banquet.

A few unpopular concubines understood their eyes and left one after another, leaving only the emperor, the queen, Concubine Li, Concubine Wan, Concubine Xuan, Princess Kangli, King Anping, Lord Tingxue, and Xu Yingke, Meng Xiu, Nangong Yu Heng, and Zeng Yiren who were forcibly left behind.

Emperor Renrui narrowed his eyes, and Pang Zihong on the side gasped - the banquet seemed to have really begun.

Concubine Xuan looked at Zeng Yiren not far away, and only felt that she was in a bad mood, so she said that she was hot and dizzy, and wanted to take a walk in the imperial garden. The Emperor nodded and acquiesced.

Seeing that the scene was a little embarrassing, and the undercurrent was surging, Concubine Li and Concubine Wan hurriedly made excuses to leave.

The emperor watched the departure of the two concubines, and suddenly smiled, and the show seemed to be about to begin.

Concubine Xuan, who left the family banquet, did not go to the Imperial Garden, but went to Xuemotai, which was far away from her Invitation Tang Palace. She sat silently on the stone bench until a hand suddenly rested on her shoulder......

"Are you ......" Concubine Xuan, or Zeng Motang, suddenly trembled: "You're here?"

"I'm coming," the man's voice was both immature and magnetic: "Motang, my Motang." ”

"It's really you......" Zeng Motang couldn't hold back his tears anymore, got up and threw himself into the man's arms: "It's so hard for me to wait for you!"

"Me too," the man took off his mask, revealing a handsome young face - this was none other than Sumire Chen, Sumire Chen's eyes turned cold a little: "I won't let him have a good time." ”

"We can't be together anymore......" Zeng Motang had already burst into tears and couldn't cry.

"No, Mo Tang," Jin Chen patted her on the back gently, carefully comforting: "You will have everything you want, I will give you everything, wait for me." ”

Zeng Motang stopped crying, and had to leave after a few simple words with Jin Chen, and Jin Chen looked at Mo Tang who was reluctant and helpless.

He watched her leave, sneered and shot out three silver needles, the peeping three palace maids fell to the ground in response, and Jin Chen easily picked up the three of them and left with only one hand.

Su Zili was called into the Xianhe Hall to perform, and the good show in the palace had just begun.
