Princess of the Past and Present
Chapter 4 Palace Banquet·Acting
Back at the mansion, passing by the gazebo by the lotus pond, a voice stopped him, "Mr. Yin!"
Mo Shuang followed the sound and looked over, the prince Mu Jin and Yuan Yuzhi were sitting in the pavilion.
Yuan Yuzhi got up and walked out of the pavilion, saying: "I brought some pastries, Mr. Yin, do you want to try them together?"
Mo Shuang evaded, "Thank you Miss Yuan for your kindness, I appreciate it."
"Mr. Yin, why be so polite, you and I will become a family sooner or later."
Mu Jin in the gazebo said, "Yuzhi, let it be if he doesn't appreciate it."
Yuan Yuzhi turned to Mu Jin with a smile and said, "Young Master Yin is just seeing outsiders, how could he not appreciate it?" Turning back, he said to Mo Shuang: "Daddy and brother Mu Jin have both agreed that I will be allowed to enter this place on the eighth day of next month. The door of the prince's mansion, I will call you brother in the future, you can't be too alien to me."
Although the words are very enthusiastic, there are many knives hidden in these words.Mo Shuang's face was calm, and said: "When Miss Yuan enters the door, she is my family, so how can I see outsiders?"
"I can rest assured that."
Mo Shuang said: "There are still some things, let's go first."
"Don't disturb Mr. Yin, go slowly."
Before leaving, from the corner of the eye, he took a look at Mu Jin who was drinking tea in the gazebo.He seemed to be in a good mood, with a faint smile on his lips.
After walking a long distance, Dong Ling walked side by side with Mo Shuang with a few steps behind him, with a dissatisfied expression on his face, "My lord, His Highness the Crown Prince is too much, I just married you within two months of entering the house, and I just want to accept the side concubine!" If you become an emperor in the future, I'm afraid there will be more than three thousand palaces in the harem."
"Don't talk too much, be careful of causing trouble." Mo Shuang said.
Dong Ling looked around, made sure that no one was eavesdropping, and continued: "I'm just sorry for the young master."
"It's so sad. My marriage with him is absurd. Now it's not very good not to interfere with each other."
"But..." Dong Ling pursed her lips, and followed Mo Shuang into the middle hall, where Mo Shuang sat down on the teacher's chair and poured herself a cup of tea.Dong Ling looked at him and asked, "Don't you wish His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to treat you better?"
Mo Shuang paused while drinking tea, and said after a long time: "Sometimes in your life, you must have it, and there is always a time in your life, don't force it."
At this time, the old butler Uncle Chen stood outside the door, he bowed down respectfully with his sleeves wrapped around his sleeves, "This old slave greets the Crown Princess."
Mo Shuang put down the tea dregs and looked at him, "Uncle Chen has something to say."
Uncle Chen entered the room, bent down at the side and said: "Earlier, there were people in the palace, but the princess and concubine were not there, so the old slave would pass the message. Tonight, the emperor will hold a banquet in the palace, and all the princes and concubines in Beijing will attend the banquet. "
"Well, I see."
"It's the first time for the Crown Princess to attend a palace banquet with His Highness the Crown Prince. There are many rules in the palace. His Highness the Crown Prince specially invited the Nanny from the palace. When the Crown Princess is free, the old servant will let the Nanny come over."
Although Mo Shuang had already read the palace rules, but the crown prince specially invited someone over, so it was not good for them to go for nothing, so he said, "I'm free after lunch, thank you Uncle Chen."
"The old slave asked Mammy to come over after lunch."
After lunch, the nanny invited from the palace taught some rules, and Mo Shuang wrote them down one by one.At Shen Shi, a servant girl came over, holding new clothes, and wanted to change Mo Shuang's hair and hair.
At the palace banquet, the speech and behavior must be appropriate, and the dress should not be sloppy.
Nian that the Crown Princess is a man, the embroidered lady of the Prince's Mansion specially ordered a set of clothes for the Crown Princess, the clothes are similar to the Crown Prince's clothes, but the color is lighter, and the unicorn on the robe has been changed to a peacock.
Mo Shuang put on xiuniang's special clothes, replaced the jade crown on her head with a silver one, wore a pair of moiré boots on her feet, and wore a fine Hetian jade pendant around her waist.
A servant came to report that His Royal Highness was waiting outside the mansion.
Mo Shuang stepped out of the door, and a luxurious carriage was waiting in front of the mansion. The servant lifted up the curtain of the carriage, and a pair of eyes happened to look over.Mo Shuang looked at him for a moment, then lifted her front and put it into the carriage.
There is only a soft couch two feet wide and five feet long in the carriage.Mo Shuang sat down on the other side of the couch, two feet apart, neither of them said a word.
The sound of horseshoes sounded, and the carriage drove on the smooth street.There was a long silence in the carriage, and Mu Jinwu said to himself, "Being in the palace is no better than being in the mansion. Since you and I are married by the emperor, we must look good in front of him."
"His Royal Highness, don't worry, the minister can handle it properly."
"That's good."
"There is one thing that I don't know if I should say it or not."
Mu Jin said coldly: "Say."
"The great-grandfather emperor once established a rule that people in the royal family, from the emperor to the prince and prince, are not allowed to take concubines or concubines within half a year when they are registered in the royal family."
Mu Jin's face darkened, "Why, do you also want to take care of my side concubine?"
"The selection of the side concubine depends entirely on His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's preference, I just remind you."
Mu Jin tilted his head to look at his cold profile, feeling inexplicably irritable.
When we arrived at the palace, it was already dark, and lanterns were lit everywhere in the palace, as if it were daytime.
Palace banquets are all set according to the emperor's preferences, sometimes once a month, sometimes not once every six months.The princes and princes living in the capital and the concubines in the harem will all attend the banquet.
The emperor and empress sit at the top of the main table, and there are four auxiliary tables below, two tables for concubines, and two tables for princes, princes and family members.
"Princess Concubine is beautiful and unparalleled in the world. His Royal Highness is so blessed." It was the sixth prince Zhekan who spoke, and he stood beside Mo Shuang with his sleeves folded, his face full of smiles.
Mu Jin, who was sitting at the table, looked at him sideways, "Brother Liu Huang's house is as beautiful as a cloud, and in terms of luck, how can I compare with you."
The sixth prince chuckled, and took a meaningful look at Mo Shuang, "It seems that His Royal Highness is still in the midst of blessings and doesn't know how to be blessed."
It was the Sixth Prince who persuaded the emperor to grant the marriage at the beginning, but now the culprit came to sneer and sneer, and Mu Jin didn't want to talk to him after he replied.
However, Zhe Kan deliberately didn't let her go, sat down in the vacant seat next to Mo Shuang, and started talking, "I heard that the princess has practiced Taoism for many years, so she must be very skilled in magic."
Mo Shuang answered calmly: "My lord is too famous, Yin has neglected to practice on weekdays, and now he only knows a little bit."
"Princess Concubine is modest." She smiled, then seemed to remember something, purposely moved closer, and whispered in his ear: "I heard that cultivating the Tao can ascend to immortality, is it true?"
Mo Shuang paused, "It's true."
The Sixth Prince made a surprised look, "Then, in the future, the Crown Princess will be able to ascend to immortality?"
Mo Shuang smiled dryly. The Sixth Prince purposely spoke like a child, and he felt quite a headache. "That's not the case. Cultivation of Taoism and immortality depends on talent."
Holding the wine glass, Mu Jin felt uncomfortable listening to their conversation, so he coughed dryly.
Zhe Kan glanced at Mu Jin meaningfully, with a bit of complacency on his face.During the dinner, I picked some dishes for Mo Shuang, with a very friendly attitude.
Knowing that Zhe Kan pretended to be intimate with him in order to make Mu Jin angry, Mo Shuang was calm and composed. He didn't eat a bite of the food in Zhe Kan's bowl, but put some food in his prince's bowl.
Zhe Kan raised the corners of his lips and said, "The princess is really considerate."
A smug look gradually appeared on Mu Jin's face, and he carefully took out the vegetables Zhe Kan had picked up in Moshuang's bowl, saying, "If you don't like this dish, don't force it." some.
Zhe Kan looked at the vegetables that were picked up next to him, his face was livid.
There was a lot of chatter and laughter at the palace banquet. The emperor gathered his concubines and sons together just to have a lively reunion. The more lively the palace banquet was, the more he liked it.
As everyone knows, the scene of harmony and harmony is only superficial, and both of them know how much sincerity and how much lies in their hearts.
Zhe Kan lifted the jug to pour wine for the princess, but with a shake of his hand, all the wine was poured into the hands of the princess.Before Mo Shuang could respond, Zhe Kan put down the jug, held his hand in his palm, and took out a silk handkerchief from his bosom to wipe, "This king is really rude, no wonder the princess."
Mu Jin looked at Mo Shuang's hand held by the Sixth Prince, with a haze in his eyes.Mo Shuang withdrew his hand from his palm and said, "Don't bother the prince."
The maid next to her presented a silk handkerchief, and Mu Jin next to her took it first, and said to Mo Shuang, "Give me your hand."
Mo Shuang stretched out his wine-stained hand to Mu Jin, Mu Jin took it, wiped it with a silk handkerchief, and pressed his palm against his palm, and could feel the thin calluses on his palm, which were caused by practicing swords all the year round.The skin on the back of his hand is fair, with slender fingers and well-defined knuckles. They are a pair of beautiful hands.
The emperor at the main table noticed the movement here, frowned and asked, "What happened?"
The sixth prince Zhe Kan stood up and cupped his hands and said, "Return to father, my servant just accidentally poured wine on the crown princess's hand, it's not a big deal."
The emperor pondered and said: "Since it is a trivial matter, don't make a big fuss and disturb others."
"Yes, Father."
Zhe Kan sat down, Mu Jin's hand was still holding Mo Shuang's, and Sipa was rubbed over the back of his hand over and over again.
Mo Shuang moved his wrist, and Mu Jin came back to his senses, let go of Mo Shuang's hand, and hurriedly looked away, holding the silk handkerchief tightly in his palm.After a while, he squinted his eyes and glanced at the person next to him from the corner of his eye, and saw his composed profile.
After the palace banquet was over, they went back to their homes.
The two returned to the Prince's Mansion without saying a word, one went to the bedroom and the other to the study.
After Mu Jin lay down and closed his eyes, a pair of white and slender hands appeared in his mind. When he touched them, he felt a little cold, and his body seemed to be injected with electricity.When he opened his eyes, the surroundings were pitch black, and his pair of pupils were hidden in the darkness.
Mo Shuang followed the sound and looked over, the prince Mu Jin and Yuan Yuzhi were sitting in the pavilion.
Yuan Yuzhi got up and walked out of the pavilion, saying: "I brought some pastries, Mr. Yin, do you want to try them together?"
Mo Shuang evaded, "Thank you Miss Yuan for your kindness, I appreciate it."
"Mr. Yin, why be so polite, you and I will become a family sooner or later."
Mu Jin in the gazebo said, "Yuzhi, let it be if he doesn't appreciate it."
Yuan Yuzhi turned to Mu Jin with a smile and said, "Young Master Yin is just seeing outsiders, how could he not appreciate it?" Turning back, he said to Mo Shuang: "Daddy and brother Mu Jin have both agreed that I will be allowed to enter this place on the eighth day of next month.
