Sheng Shi Merciful Light

Chapter 148 Moon Worship Palace Banquet

At night, the palace people lit many huge wind lanterns.

Because the Moon Worship Festival not only appreciates the moon, but also appreciates the lanterns. There are many well-made lanterns of various kinds hanging on high poles. Accompanied by the very bright moonlight emitted by the two full moons, the entire Royal Garden is illuminated like It was as bright as daytime, with a layer of joyful bright red.

The banquet is held in the imperial garden, which is divided into two places. The front garden is the area for the banquet of the emperor, prince, and officials above the third rank.The back garden is the banquet area for concubines, concubines, and imperial wives above the third rank.

……

It was the first time for Mu Ci to participate in this kind of national banquet, and he was not at all stage frightened. The Tianshou Emperor proudly took his little hand into the venue together.

The internal servant said "Your Majesty is here..."

Everyone knelt down in their positions, greeted the emperor, and shouted long live.

The first item is to pray for blessings. Emperor Tianshou gently encouraged Mu Ci.

Mu Ci took a glance at the prayer edict written by Zhao Rui. Although he felt that there was no valid content, he took off the manuscript in a clear and melodious voice, and recited the prayer words in his mind.

The ministers practiced the special ability to observe the situation of the superior with the corner of their eyes. Although they couldn't see the appearance of King Changle clearly, they knew that his voice was still calm and distant after finishing the manuscript on such an important occasion. , the momentum is natural.

The servant declared "Pingshen", everyone got up, and the banquet officially began.

The position of Emperor Tianshou is the brightest place in the venue.All the honorable officials raised their heads with their own thoughts, and saw the Changle King who was led by the emperor and stood side by side with the emperor.

Almost not dazzled by the color.

Mu Ruosong and Wang Ziguang followed Mu Xici, seated closer to the front, and they were also dumbfounded.

At this moment, the king of Changle, wearing royal clothes and a crown, stood there quietly, as if standing on the clouds, exuding the innate dignity of the royal family, his eyes were indifferent, looking down on all living beings.

The minds of the officials were shocked. Many people saw this young man for the first time when he was just out of the cold palace. Back then, the young man in the main hall who was drenched in rain did not look embarrassed at all. It is a bit more peerless.

The silver brilliance of the twin moons flowing all over the place complements the candlelight...

All the light seemed to be sucked away by this young man, and then projected out using him as a light source... The brilliance was brighter than moonlight, and brighter than candlelight, causing him to have a faint layer of precious light flowing all over his body.

Not a mortal person.

Everyone also knows his unparalleled wisdom, compassion for the people, and broad-mindedness...

He really came down from the stars, bless me with great luck.

As for the injustice he suffered?He is a victim.Beauty is the first right of immunity. Everyone has the same aspirations and forgets what should be forgotten. Even a few ministers with different ambitions can't hate him.

And looking at the posture, it is obvious that the Emperor Tianshou... Reciting prayers on the Moon Festival used to be exclusive to the prince.

And look at the emperor who has been holding Mu Ci's hand wherever he goes, pulling him to stand with him, enjoying the Baiguan Mountain Hulong live... expressing his love and expectation for Mu Ci with actions.

Combining the rumors that suddenly appeared yesterday, everyone looked at the third prince delicately.

If the emperor's praise of the Ninth Prince is a vertical target, then it is too much.But why did the third prince say "hide your strengths and bide your time" again?

The ministers were beating their hearts...

I hate this kind of situation where the reserve position is unknown, and I don't know how to place a bet.

……

Luoyang Wang Mu Nian didn't care about everyone's gaze, he looked up and looked at his ninth brother.

This was the first time he had seen the ninth brother in several months.

Still so thin, well-dressed, and very energetic.

His gaze followed Mu Ci all the time.

The ninth younger brother stood beside his father, and he didn't make a mistake. Maybe he didn't understand at all, and no one taught him, so he stood side by side with his father, accepting the worship of all officials, noble and indifferent, calm and calm .

Mu Nian was relieved, and then laughed at herself: Others planned in every possible way, but in the end they just made a wedding dress for you.Lian Father...for you, he didn't hesitate to lie to me like that.

But... I don't complain.

It's really you, the best.

Mu Nian will never forget the scene where his little ninth brother whispered in his ear, "I repaid your friendship. From now on, we will never owe each other." Then he bumped headfirst into the prince, blood spattering three feet.

No, Brother Jiu doesn't need to pay back, he doesn't owe anyone anything.

It was everyone who failed him.

……

Linjiang Wang Muyi's eyes were gloomy, looking at Mu Ci who was attracting attention beside Emperor Tianshou.

He really regarded that bastard as a treasure... Has his wise and mighty father ever held the hand of any child so firmly?

Mu Yi sneered silently, looking at her third brother with a stupid face, she really didn't know what ecstasy soup he drank, he was so stupid that he believed what his father told him to "hide his strength and bide his time", it was just to coax him to obediently let that little wild beast Arrows.

Mu Yi drank a glass of wine in her hand, stood up and left the table, no one noticed him.Even if they noticed, no one cared about the whereabouts of this little transparent prince.

……

The sixth prince, Mu Xiang, had already been born, and he was proclaimed the King of Loyalty. He sat on the seat of the prince, and sat at the head of King Hanshan. When he was framed by his brother and fell from the rockery, and his arm was disabled, many things had nothing to do with him.

Mu Xiang noticed that Mu Yi had left the table, his eyes darkened for a moment, then he glanced at Mu Ci, who was in the spotlight, and then at Mu Nian, who was also drinking too much.

……

The seventh son of the emperor, Wang Muyou of Huainan County, left his seat and sat next to Mu Nian. He poked the brother beside him with his elbow, and whispered, "Third brother, is that ninth brother?"

Mu Nian nodded.

"He's really... really likable, let's talk to him." Mu You said.A person with good looks can easily be liked by others.

Mu Nianfu: "He... doesn't want to see me."

"Ah? Third brother, did you offend him?" Mu You was young, her mother's family was invisible, and she had always been outside the political power, so she never asked about many things.He looked at Mu Nian in doubt, and then thought of the rumors that everyone else was suffering at the hands of the ninth brother, thinking that the ninth brother was quite difficult to get along with.

Well, I'd better stop looking for boredom, so I didn't dare to talk to Jiudi.

……

Official prostitutes entered the arena, singing and dancing, and quickly diverted everyone's attention.

The powerful and high-ranking officials are also slowly letting go, drinking and singing lyrics, playing games such as couplet poems and throwing pots, or visiting the garden in groups of twos and threes. Of course, they will not mess around in the harem.

Emperor Tianshou took Mu Ci with him all the time, and did not let him sit in the seat of King Changle.The two of them sat together at the royal table, which was a direct act of declaring their favor, expressing the will of the Emperor Tianshou.

Everyone started to fight in their hearts...

In addition, today's crown prince seat is not set at all.

It seems that the prince's loss of power is a certainty.

The relevant personnel of the Zheng family of the Duke of Lu's mansion were all questioned and assigned, and exile for a thousand miles is the latest.None of the relatives who were in the same branch as the Duke of Lu were spared, even the Zheng family who served as the county magistrate in the local area cleaned up everything for Emperor Tianshou.

The Wang family of the prince's wife did not end well.

Everyone has aspirations to get rid of the prince.

……

Mu Ci didn't care about everyone's scrutinizing gazes. He sat very relaxed on the imperial seat, carelessly playing with the glazed jade cup on the table, and glanced over everyone.

His gaze flicked past Mu Nian without stopping, which made Mu Nian feel lost for a while.

Mu You is very young, with a gentle and handsome appearance. When he saw Mu Ci looking at him, he quickly burst into a super big smile.Mu Ci glanced at it lightly, turned her eyes away without saying anything.

Mu You: "..." It's really not easy to get along with.

Emperor Tianshou couldn't drink alcohol, so Wei finally poured some flower dew, and Emperor Tianshou asked him to pour some more flower dew for Mu Ci and persuaded him: "Jiulang, don't drink alcohol, it's not good for your health."

Mu Ci was noncommittal, and Wei Mo poured out the floral dew.

Mu Ci held the cup in her beautiful hands, smelling the fragrance of the floral dew, with a lazy expression and an outstanding temperament, exuding an indifference that repulses others for thousands of miles.

Calling people dare not have the slightest offense.

The seats of the princes were relatively close, and Mu Ci found Mu Ruosong and Wang Ziguang sitting on the throne, not surprised at all, and toasted with a blank expression.

Mu Xici hurriedly toasted to respond, he didn't inherit the Mu family's aura, and he was always a little slow, but he still knew that the famous Changle King couldn't possibly know him.He hurriedly turned his head and said, "A Song, is the King of Changle calling you?"

Busily asked Mu Ruosong to raise his glass in response.

Wang Ziguang poked Mu Ruosong: "Big cousin, the king of Changle is calling you, raise your glass and go over there to seal with him."

Mu Ruosong shook his head, pursed his lips lightly, and looked at the beautiful woman who was about to climb into the heavens, his eyes were gentle and pain was concealed.

Mu Ci was sitting on the throne, sitting next to Emperor Tianshou, how could he get close to him?

Even though he had been Mu Ci's attendant, Mu Ci treated him differently, but for the first time he clearly understood - the long distance between the two of them.

Painful realization.

……

Mu Ci raised his glass again, paying tribute to Wang Youlun and other ministers who had taught him.Everyone smiled and toasted in response.

Mu Ci found out that none of the military officers of the Sixth Army had entered the palace.

Emperor Tianshou saw that Mu Ci was in a good mood at the moment, so he told Mu Ci once again not to drink, stepped down from his seat, had fun with his ministers, and planned to introduce several princes to him.

He took a closer look at Mu Ci, who was pleasing to the eye even when he was lazy. He felt a little unsafe because he had a headache because his young son was moody and would not give face to anyone. He searched for Mu Ruosong not far away, and gave Wei Zhong a wink.

His Jiulang is more concerned about this servant, so he should listen to his advice.

Wei Zhong was worthy of being a roundworm in the emperor's belly, and immediately went to lift Mu Ruosong behind Mu Ci, and asked someone to move a few big lanterns away, so that Mu Ruosong would not be so conspicuous as he knelt behind Mu Ci.Mu Ruosong may be very good in Prince Ding's Mansion and has a place, but in the palace, if he hits a few princes and nobles with a random brick, his seniority is really nothing, he doesn't even have a separate seat, and he is not qualified to be close to the emperor throne.

Emperor Tianshou heaved a sigh of relief, for a while his family Xiao Jiulang made people unable to get down, and finally there was someone who could persuade him a little bit.

Mu Ruosong called softly: "Your Highness..."

Mu Ci didn't even turn her head back, and didn't give the slightest reaction.

Mu Ruosong wasn't sure if he was angry or not, seeing that Tianshoudi had come with a group of princes, he stopped talking.

Emperor Tianshou was happier today, a blush rarely appeared on his usual sallow face.He introduced loudly to the people around him: "This is my youngest son, Ci, Xingjiu, if the fine print is missing, among my sons, Jiulang is the smartest and most beautiful. Jiulang... come to say hello." Pointing to a slightly skinned Hei, the tall and healthy middle-aged prince introduced solemnly, "This is the King of Qinghe. Although he is young, he has a high seniority. Your name is Uncle."

But Mu Ci didn't seem to hear, she was still sitting there bored playing with the wine glass, without raising her eyelids, as if the person in front of her didn't exist.

Mu Ruosong from behind gently poked him.

Mu Ci still ignored it.

Emperor Tianshou: "..." Oh, I get carried away in a moment of complacency. Recently, Jiulang's attitude towards him can be said to be good, which made him forget——Is it normal for my Xiao Jiulang to be so indifferent and ignore everyone without distinction? ?

Mistake, Jiulang said that it is okay to attend the banquet, but he is too lazy to socialize, how could he forget?

Emperor Tianshou knew how stubborn his own son was, and he never bowed his head for anyone. Even these princes who stomped their feet and trembled three times, even the emperor wanted to show some face, when they came to Mu Ci, he didn't want to pay attention to it. Really don't care.

And these princes always have their eyes above the top, not because of the face of the god-given emperor, who would post a little prince's "cold buttocks".

Yo, this little prince really dares to show his face... Although the princes are unhappy in their hearts, they don't show it on their faces, and this experience is quite novel - they have never been ignored like this before.

The atmosphere fell into embarrassment, and for a while, no one dared to make loud noises, and their eyes, open or dark, gathered here.
