August [-]th is coming soon, and the banquet held in the Mid-Autumn Palace is not a family banquet. Many courtiers and family members are invited, and it looks very lively.

Ji Chang also entered the palace and had a banquet on this day.She is the son of the Marquis of Wu'an, although she has no official position, but this title is real, so she naturally came to the palace banquet where only Beijing officials above the third rank are eligible to participate.

Or rather, can't hide.

The palace banquet is a dinner party, the moon is full in the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it is just dark to enjoy the moon.

Ji Changshen's entry into the palace was not too late, but it was by no means early either.Because when she stepped into the Chengde Palace where the palace banquet was held, there were already many ministers waiting in the palace.There are people she knows, and there are people she doesn't know, but the attitude of everyone towards her is like-minded - keeping her at a respectful distance.

The Marquis of Wu'an Mansion is very powerful, but everyone can see that the emperor is afraid of the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion. It is also obvious that the Hou Mansion is walking on thin ice.Whether it's for profit or to avoid suspicion, no one wants to provoke them.Even the princes who always love to woo power, this time there are few reaching out to the Houfu, except for the King of Han, so Ji Chang's days in Beijing can be regarded as leisure.

Now that Ji Chang stepped into the hall, many people saw her, but no one came to say hello.Only the servant standing on the side took the initiative to greet him, and said affectionately: "My lord, this servant will guide you to your seat."

Ji Chang didn't care about everyone's attitude, nodded and was about to follow the servant, but happened to catch a glimpse of Qiao Shangshu carrying him through the door.

The eyes of the two met for a moment, and Ji Chang subconsciously looked behind Qiao Shangshu. He didn't realize until he saw the emptiness—although courtiers and family members were invited to this Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, the place where the banquet was held was not in the same place.The emperor led his courtiers and Erlang to a banquet in the Chengde Palace, but the wives and noble ladies were all placed in another palace, and the queen presided over the banquet.

The two sides also have some intersections tonight, but at least that will have to wait until dark.At that time, Yan was halfway through drinking, and the emperor and empress respectively took people out to enjoy the flowers and the moon, and the imperial garden is only such a big place, the two sides will always meet.Young men and women who are not engaged can also have a blind date by the way.

Now when Ji Chang went to look, he naturally couldn't see Qiao Yue, but her small gesture did not escape Qiao Shangshu's eyes, causing him to stare again.And this stare was seen by others, apart from lamenting that the two of them really turned against each other, there was nothing surprising.

But Ji Chang understood the true meaning of Qiao Shangshu's look, so he couldn't help being embarrassing.In front of everyone, but still had to put on a tit-for-tat look, turned around and left with a cold face.After sitting down, she raised her eyes and saw that Qiao Shangshu happened to be sitting opposite her. The moment her eyes met, no one would believe that this was not arranged by the emperor on purpose!

Fortunately, because of their status and status, no matter how discordant Ji Chang and Qiao Shangshu are, it is impossible for them to argue with each other all the time.Therefore, although the seat arrangement of the two is a little subtle, they are still "peaceful and peaceful" in such an occasion.

Qiao Shangshu's side quickly gathered a lot of people to talk, but Ji Chang's side was deserted.Occasionally, a few military generals came over, looking at Ji Chang's pale and weak appearance, not to mention toasting for friendship, even talking too loudly would scare her.So in the end, they just greeted each other casually, and then they all retreated, making it seem that her side was very deserted.

Fortunately, Ji Chang didn't care, he waited and waited until the palace banquet started.

When the emperor came, he was accompanied by two princes - Qin Wangxing, who was the second son, and Chu Wangxing, who was the third favorite. They were the two who were fighting the most fiercely in the battle for the heir apparent.As for the king of Yan who was in charge, he was crippled and out of the game early, and the rest of the princes were not in the eyes of the emperor and courtiers, just like the king of Han, they were weak and pitiful.

Ji Chang's eyes only stayed on the two of them for a moment, then he got up and saluted with everyone: "See Your Majesty."

The emperor walked through the bowing courtiers, stepped up the imperial steps, and finally sat down on the high throne.Then he raised his hand, and said in a deep and dignified voice, "Everyone, please take your seat."

After all the ministers thanked him, they sat down again.

When Ji Chang sat down, he glanced casually, and saw King Han sitting in the corner, whose status was very different from King Qin and King Chu sitting above him.But so what?Everything will be different from today.

Thinking of this, Ji Chang also picked up the wine cup in front of him and took a sip, the wine stained her pale lips, giving off a slight gleam.

****************************************************************************

It was Ji Chang's first time to attend a palace banquet, but the banquet was mostly like that—singing and dancing, drinking and drinking.The musicians in the palace are highly skilled, and the dancers are also charming, but it is a pity that the soft singing and dancing really does not arouse much interest.

Of course, Ji Chang didn't come here to appreciate singing and dancing, she came here to wait for the emperor to "give a marriage".

No one came to toast and talk, so Ji Chang poured himself a drink.Unexpectedly, she looked thin and weak, but she was able to drink well. She had refilled the jug in front of her twice, and she didn't appear to be half drunk.On the contrary, the more she drank, the brighter her eyes became, and the sparkle in her pair of peach blossom eyes became even more radiant. If one accidentally met her, she was immediately attracted.

Qiao Shangshu was sitting opposite to Ji Chang, and saw it intentionally or unintentionally, and cursed inwardly as "disaster", blaming her for seducing his daughter with her appearance.But at the same time, he was afraid that she would be really drunk and would not be able to withstand the emperor's subsequent moves.

But obviously, Qiao Shangshu was too worried, Ji Chang was not drunk, on the contrary, the emperor lost his temper.

When Ji Chang drank the wine in his glass again, he raised his eyes and saw a dancer in front of him stepping gracefully.The dancer was born with a delicate and beautiful appearance, wearing a gorgeous dress, heavy makeup and natural charm.Even if this is a palace banquet, I believe that there will never be less scorching eyes on her at this time.But now this beauty is ignoring others, she is only herself...

If it were someone else, I'm afraid his mind would be fluttering, but Ji Chang obviously didn't.Although she was looking at each other, her fixed eyes were full of clarity, and she even tilted her head slightly, as if she was waiting to see the dancer's next move.

Still the same sentence, this is a palace banquet, but anyone who oversteps is a disgrace.So it is impossible for Ji Chang to do anything out of the ordinary, and the dancer would not do it if she wanted to save her life.So she came generously, flirting secretly, and after being ignored by Ji Chang, she didn't make a real seductive move. She just turned around and came to the table, and picked up the flagon to pour wine into Ji Chang's empty cup.

To poison, or to drug?No, how could such a thing appear on the palace banquet.

So the dancer just slipped her hand while pouring the wine, and spilled the wine in the jug, and she still spilled it on the person in front of her.

The next moment, she knelt down to plead guilty, as if she was in awe and fear: "My lord, forgive me. The servant slipped and knocked over the jug, soiling the lord's clothes. Please forgive me this time..."

There were already a lot of eyes on this beautiful dancer girl, and her kneeling naturally attracted a lot of eyes, even the emperor looked over: "What's wrong, is your son in the way?"

Ji Chang naturally ignored the dancer, and replied to the emperor on the throne: "I'm fine, it's just that the dancer accidentally spilled wine."

Hearing this, the emperor immediately asked, "But you stained your clothes? It's not a big deal. There are a few palaces nearby. You can go and change yourself."

It's just that the emperor's "concern" came too early, so Ji Chang said: "Thank you for your concern, but I'm fine. I was far away before, and the wine was only spilled on the table, and there was no dirt on my body." , just wipe the table."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere was slightly awkward. After all, normal people would not refute if they had listened to the emperor's words.Even if there is no dirt, it is better to change clothes obediently than to directly refute the emperor's face, after all, today is notoriously narrow-minded.

Only Ji Chang, I don't know whether it's because a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, or because he has been in the frontier for a long time and doesn't know how to adapt, so he pushes back like this!

The singing and dancing in the hall seemed to stagnate for a moment, and then continued to whitewash the peace with trepidation.During this period, a minister secretly raised his eyes to look at the emperor's face, and it was indeed dark, and he was angry when he looked at it.It's a pity that Ji Chang didn't look at it either. Instead, she turned her gaze to the dancer who was still kneeling beside her. Unsurprisingly, her face turned pale after she said those words.

Sprinkling wine and changing clothes at the banquet, and then imprisoning people together to frame and catch rape, this is simply a play that women have played to death!

Ji Chang has never seen Gongdou Zhaidou before, but she is not stupid, so she can see through such crude methods at a glance - she came here today to step on the trap, but she has to take the risk of changing clothes, she can't easily step on this kind of trap , so he had no choice but to "below the grace of God".

The emperor was secretly annoyed, and his expression was not very good-looking, but he didn't say anything.He looked at the already dark sky outside the hall, and simply got up and said: "Today's Mid-Autumn Festival, it should be the full moon. Now that the sky outside has also darkened, Zhu Qing will follow me to the Imperial Garden for a walk and enjoy the flowers Watching the moon is also quite elegant, it is more interesting than staying in this palace all the time."

The process of the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet is the same every year. Although the time for viewing the moon is earlier this year, after the embarrassment just now, everyone didn't think there was anything wrong.So one after another promised to get up and take the initiative to follow.

Ji Chang naturally followed, but his eyes dimmed as he watched the emperor's back.

The author has something to say: Qiao Yue (sorrow): In the chapter that didn't appear, I miss my wife...

Shizi (cough slightly): You are allowed to secretly think, but don't say it out loud.
