Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Zhen Huan
Chapter 163: The Banquet Day
Zhen Huan sent a letter to her mother early in the morning, reminding her not to wear anything too conspicuous that day.
Although the emperor did not have any other thoughts when he first met Zhen's mother.
But we have to guard against the emperor's heart!
As for what the Queen would do at the banquet;
All she can do is to deal with the enemy with her own force and block the water with earth!
During the three days when the invitations were officially sent out, everyone was making different plans.
I finally made it to the day of the banquet.
The backyard of Jingren Palace was a bustling and prosperous scene.
The ladies of state wanted to seize this opportunity to get close to the queen;
The gifts were carefully selected early on;
Just to win first place at the banquet and be looked at with favor by the Queen.
Zhen Huan and her group also arrived at the banquet early to congratulate the Queen.
Because things happened too urgently, Shen Meizhuang's mother was far away in Shandong and was unable to make it.
So the Queen was specially invited and her permission was obtained.
Yu Ying'er's mother was not qualified to attend because of her humble status.
In addition, Zhen's mother, An's mother and Hua Fei's sister-in-law Su also rushed over.
Because of the relationship between Zhen Huan and An Lingrong, Zhen's mother had always taken good care of An's mother outside the palace;
The two people are naturally familiar with each other.
As for Hua Fei's sister-in-law, Su, the few of them could only nod to her from a distance.
Zhen Huan whispered to her mother and told her not to worry.
Then she searched among the crowd for someone who could help her out of this crisis.
But he searched everywhere but couldn't find this person.
It shouldn’t be!
According to Longkodo’s power in the court!
The Queen invited all the ladies in the court, so it was impossible that she would not send an invitation to the Tong Mansion alone.
Just when Zhen Huan was searching for him in vain, she suddenly heard a particularly frantic voice:
"I am not late, am I?"
Looking back, the person coming was Longkodo's concubine, Li Si'er!
The person Zhen Huan is looking for is exactly her!
Li Si'er is famous for being arrogant!
Relying on Longkodo's favor, he first turned Longkodo's first wife, Hesheli, into a human pig;
Later, he forced Longkodo's concubine to death.
It even angered Longkodo's mother to death!
But Longkodo still doted on her!
In her previous life, Zhen Huan also briefly met Li Si'er after the Emperor executed Longkodo.
Li Si'er was originally the concubine of Longkodo's father-in-law!
Later he was noticed by Longkodo!
He took advantage of the time when he accompanied Hesheli back to her parents' home;
Hanging out with Li Si'er.
He coveted Li Si'er's beauty, so he begged his father-in-law to give her to him.
But his father-in-law thought this was too ridiculous!
Privately, I can't bear to give up Li Si'er, this delicate concubine!
So, Longkodo’s request was rejected!
Longkodo was young and energetic at the time. Relying on his status and merits, he forcibly took Li Si'er away!
However, this matter was suppressed by Longkodo's order early on!
So not many people in the palace knew about it.
Zhen Huan also heard this in her previous life by accident from an old maid in the palace.
I didn't expect it would come in handy in this life!
Given Li Si'er's methods, she would not be unaware of the past between Longkodo and the Empress Dowager.
Zhen Huan has a bold idea!
She thought that Li Si'er might have evidence of the Empress Dowager and Long Kedo's dealings.
Otherwise, given the Queen Mother's ruthless methods, how could she tolerate this Li Si'er!
This was the first time that a concubine attended the Queen's banquet.
But the queen took into consideration Longkodo's influence in the previous dynasty;
I had to greet her "aunt" with a smile.
"I am already very happy that my aunt can come."
"Aunt, please take a seat."
Li Si'er glanced at the queen with disdain, then let her maid Lian'er help her sit down.
That arrogant attitude is even worse than that of Nian Gengyao in the past!
Soon, the Queen Mother also arrived.
Everyone hurriedly bowed and saluted the Queen Mother.
Only Li Sier stood up slowly and reluctantly:
"I pay my respects to the Queen Mother. May the Queen Mother be blessed with good health and good health."
There was contempt in his tone.
The Queen Mother, supported by Zhu Xi, stopped when she passed by Li Si'er.
She took the initiative to reach out and help Li Si'er up:
"After so many years, you are still the same, as graceful as ever."
"No wonder Lord Longkodo has been so fond of you for so many years!"
The Queen Mother's attitude towards Li Si'er further confirmed Zhen Huan's guess.
He has been able to stand firm under the Empress Dowager's nose for so many years!
Apart from having the empress dowager's leverage over her, she couldn't think of any other reason!
Li Sier bowed slightly in response to the Queen Mother's praise:
"I am truly unworthy of the praise from the Empress Dowager."
"The Queen Mother thinks that I am still graceful and charming."
"I am just a concubine, a few years younger than you, sir."
Longkodo and the Queen Mother were childhood sweethearts;
What Li Si'er said was nothing more than a mockery of the fact that the Queen Mother was older than her.
Faced with Li Si'er's statement, the Queen Mother was silent for a moment.
The Queen knew that although the Queen Mother looked calm on the outside, she must be burning with anger in her heart.
So he hurriedly came out with a smile and said:
"It's getting late, please take your seat, Your Majesty..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard Su Peisheng's voice from outside the palace:
"The Emperor has arrived!"
Everyone hurriedly greeted the emperor:
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. May your Majesty be blessed with good health and good health."
The emperor walked up to the seat and bowed to the empress dowager first.
Then he turned around and said to everyone:
"Today is a happy day, everyone, please don't be polite, just stand up and take your seats."
After thanking the emperor, everyone stood up and sat down in their respective seats.
The emperor was displeased when he saw Li Si'er.
But he had to consider Longkodo's face and said a few words to her.
Afterwards, he helped the Queen Mother to sit on the throne.
The banquet officially kicked off.
After watching the singing and dancing for a while, the queen stood up, glanced at everyone, raised her glass and made her request to the emperor:
"Your Majesty, it's too boring to always watch singing and dancing."
"I have an idea, I wonder if Your Majesty would agree to it?"
The emperor waved his hand to signal the queen to sit down:
"Today is the Queen's banquet, and everything will be based on the Queen's happiness."
When the queen heard the emperor say this, her face beamed with joy.
She looked at the people sitting below with a smile and said to the emperor:
"I invite all the ladies to come to the palace to attend my banquet."
"All the ladies have come with gifts."
"As the initiator of this banquet, I cannot help but express my gratitude to all the ladies for their hospitality."
The Queen said and looked at the Emperor again:
"I was inspired by the scene of pear blossoms blooming outside."
"Why don't I pick a few from among the ladies?"
"I will borrow the Emperor's imperial brush to personally draw pear blossoms between the eyebrows of the ladies who have been selected as decorations."
"This can be considered as a good start for all the ladies at this banquet.
