Yang Nian sat cross-legged on a chair to study the chess record, and Yang Feng'er sat next to him picking out fabrics and preparing to cut some new clothes, "How is Sheng'er adapting to the Forbidden Barracks?"

"It's good. It's more comfortable than him in the palace. After all, he likes to be with a group of old men."

"Can't you have a doorman?" Yang Feng'er pointed to the purple one, and immediately wrote down her thoughts, "Did third uncle bother him?"

"Why bother with him? Everyone in his team is very careful, for fear of being caught." Yang Nian raised his head and pointed at the light yellow one. "He is almost becoming the pacesetter of the Forbidden Army Battalion."

"Is the goose yellow too tender?" Yang Feng'er mocked.

Yang Nian rolled his eyes, and received it according to his sister's intention, "How old are you, you are very young."

"Look at what you said, have you written down your explanation?"

Xie Yi leaned over and said he had written it down.

"I'll have someone cut some clothes for you too. Wear something festive for the Mid-Autumn Festival. Don't be white every day. I don't know if you thought you were going to become a fairy."

"What do you know, so that you can hook up with the little girl."

"How old are you! Hook up with a little girl!" Yang Feng'er grabbed a handful of melon seeds and threw them at Yang Nian's face.

"Vixen!" Yang Nian dodged, "What are you doing?"

Yang Feng'er immediately froze, "The emperor hasn't entered my bedroom for half a month."

"Aren't you a young lady from the Shangshu family who just entered the palace? You must be fresh."

"This freshness is too long." Yang Feng'er was not very happy, and put the melon seeds back into the bowl one by one, "How lucky this man is."

"It is said that when Mrs. Ren died, General Ren's mother proposed to renew him. General Ren cut down all the weeds in the garden, thinking that he could think less. It looks like a woman leaning halfway, distraught, and vowed never to marry again." Yang Nian still sighed when he thought of what Ren Xiaoxiao told him.

Yang Feng'er covered her face with a handkerchief, "You're just embarrassing me, so bring some pastries and hurry up."

The entire capital is immersed in the festive atmosphere. Rich people have reserved high platforms on the outskirts of the city early to wait for the moon appreciation. Ordinary people also buy two catties of mooncakes at the bakery to prepare for family reunions. Businessmen close their doors early. Only the ministers rushed to the carriage of the palace.

Yang Nian wore a light yellow inner shirt and a crimson robe over the outside. He got off his carriage and rushed to Li Sheng, flicking his wide sleeves, "Are you celebrating?"

"That's right, it looks like your skin is fair." Li Sheng nodded.

"What kind of white skin do I want for a grown man? I think your color is fine." Yang Nian flipped Li Sheng's face frivolously.

Li Sheng's mouth was a little dry, he turned around, and hurried to the palace, wanting to pour himself a glass of water first.

"The emperor and queen are here." The eunuch's sharp voice made people's hearts tingle and itch.

The Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet is one of the most important events in the palace. It is sponsored by the Ministry of Rites and assisted by the Ministry of Households. Although this dynasty advocates frugality, it will be a little extravagant during the Mid-Autumn Festival. The new clothes are the lavender that Yang Fenger personally selected.

The emperor and queen sit on a high platform, with the harem concubines and the family members of the prince below, and then the officials and their family members. The officials are divided into two rows and arranged in order of rank.Yang Nianyou was favored, and was arranged next to Li Sheng, sitting on top of all officials.The middle of the hundred officials is used as a venue for performances.

Yang Feng'er chose a red skirt embroidered with a golden phoenix. It has a wide hem and a thick texture. It looks very solemn and imposing.The emperor stretched out his hand, but Yang Feng'er pretended not to see it, and only looked straight ahead.

Of course, the emperor had a way to cover it up. He stretched his hand forward and waved, "Flat body."

The emperor took Yang Feng'er's hand and sat down with her.

Yang Feng'er chuckled, and winked at Yang Nian who was looking up at the bottom, Yang Nian looked at her proud look very disgusted, thinking of a woman.

After the empress sat down, the eunuch presented the play list, and the empress ordered the first play.

"Yiyiyaya," Yang Nian took a sip, making an orchid-shaped hand, "The Empress Dowager likes these."

Li Sheng raised his head and looked at the Empress Dowager. She was in her early fifties and was considered well-maintained. She was no different from what he remembered. The Empress Dowager was actually a concubine of the Yang family. It was already a great honor to be able to marry the prince at that time as a concubine. Grace, but who would have guessed who would have the last laugh? It is said that fate is doomed, but it seems that you still have to rely on your own means.

The Empress Dowager seemed to sense it, she cast her phoenix eyes downward, glanced around, and put down the list of tricks, "Cheng'er, you returned to the palace for the first time, and you performed outstandingly in the imperial army, and relieved your brother of a lot of worries. It's up to you to order some."

Li Sheng was called upon, stood up, bent over and saluted, "Thank you Queen Mother for your favor."

Another eunuch walked up to Li Sheng from the other side and handed over the playlist. Yang Nian winked at the side, hoping that Li Sheng would choose a lively one.

Li Sheng chose a fight scene, which hit Yang Nian's appetite.

After a burst of gongs and drums, everyone became more drunk and applauded along with the play.

"Cheng'er really likes these scenes of fighting and killing," the emperor said with a smile, "You have done a good job in the imperial army, and you are more than enough to be a deputy commander."

"The emperor is right." Yang Xin got up and clasped his fists, "I am about to ask the emperor for an order to let the county king fill the vacancy of the deputy commander."

Yang Nian covered his smile with the wine glass, wondering if the third uncle's guess was right this time.

"Okay!" The emperor didn't hesitate, the position of deputy commander is nothing, "Come on, the emperor's brother is promising, and the emperor's brother will follow suit."

The emperor raised his wine glass, and all the officials followed suit, drinking boisterously.

"Why doesn't Concubine Zhen drink some wine?" Yang Feng'er saw Concubine Zhen drinking water all the time, and asked concerned, "It's all wine from the Western Regions, not intoxicating."

Concubine Zhen looked flustered, stood up from her seat, and bowed, "If you go back to the queen, the slave girl is in poor health today."

"Why, have you checked with the imperial physician?" the emperor asked.

"I've seen it," Concubine Zhen couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips, "it's the joy pulse."

Concubine Zhen's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just enough for the person sitting in the upper position to hear clearly. She was often favored by the emperor with her beautiful voice, but at this moment her oriole-like voice gave every woman in the harem a heartache. knife.

The Empress Dowager was the first to react, and said pleasantly, "Your Majesty, you have a happy pulse!"

"Congratulations, Your Majesty," everyone in the harem stood up and saluted collectively.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty," all the officials saluted.

The voice of congratulations one after another stimulated Yang Fenger, her tears were already stuffed in her throat, she saluted unconsciously, smiled unconsciously, and lifted the wine glass unconsciously.Thinking of herself like a joke, she laughed even more happily.

Yang Nian finally learned to understand the rules, no dissatisfaction or loss could be seen on his smiling face, but the palm of Li Sheng's hand that was held by him was already turning purple.
