Chapter 289: Palace Banquet

After the ceremony, the young master patted her on the shoulder and said earnestly: "I have really convinced you this time, you are the first person I have ever seen who can accompany sister Huang to swallow white meat, what do you mean? It shows that Miss Huang really saw the right person."

It was the first time for Cen Zhu to receive his encouragement. He wanted to say a few words of humility, but the young master hooked Li Jingzong's shoulders, and the two brothers walked away with smiles, "Oh, it's really hard for such a person to come out after all these years." It's easy, we don't have to feel guilty anymore."

"Yeah yeah!"

Cen Zhu's mouthful of white meat was choked in his throat, and he almost spit it out when he opened his mouth.

This is a group of relatives, this is all.

Afterwards, Cen Zhu helped Li Jingzhu out of the hall and asked her, "Does your stomach feel bad?"

Li Jingchen shook his head, "I'm used to it. What about you?"

Cen Zhu said with a smile: "I'm not used to it yet, but? I think, this kind of life of big fish and meat is better than eating thatch roots and hundreds of rice in the countryside. I will get used to it sooner or later."

Li Jing's nose was sour, and he squeezed her hand, "I won't let you eat thatch root and Baijia rice in the future."

Cen Zhu nodded her forehead, "I believe in you. But just don't let me eat alone."

Li Jingchen looked at the smile in her eyes, and immediately understood: "Yes. It's not just you. Do you think I can do it?"

"Of course. No one in this world can do it better than you. I often think, if you were the emperor when Master and I were begging outside, maybe the food we begged would be more delicious than before. Why didn't you be the emperor?" What about the emperor, what do you think?"

Li Jingchen was amused by her, and hooked her neck with forgetfulness, "Don't think too much of me. In fact, I have done a lot of 'unsatisfactory' things. People always call me '' An unkind female Rakshasa." She was a little bit aggrieved when she said it.

Cen Zhu laughed and said, "Who is so discerning? Such a beautiful female Bodhisattva, is it not a female Rakshasa? Hurry up and let me kiss you."

He hasn't returned to Yaohua Palace yet, is Li Jingchen not as thick-skinned as her, how many times did he hide? He ran away in a hurry.In the afternoon, I went to the imperial study to check the memorials delivered by Gongming Pavilion every day. After reading a few volumes, I felt sleepy. Thinking of Consort Cen's gentle face, I couldn't wait to go back to the dormitory to catch up on sleep.But he didn't see anyone, so he asked the maid, "Where's the son-in-law?"

"Return to Your Majesty? The son-in-law has been in the north study for a long time, and no one is allowed to enter. I don't know what he is up to."

Li Jingchen was curious, so he came to the north study next to the dormitory.At the door, I happened to meet Cen Zhu, who was walking out with a spring breeze on his face, and was hugged.

"What are you doing?"

"It's nothing, I practiced calligraphy for a while in the study." Cen Zhu licked his lips, his eyes bright.

Li Jingchen was a little skeptical, and wanted to go in and have a look.Cen Zhu held her face in his hands, stroked her eyelids with his fingertips, and said "aggressively" a few times, "Why are your eyelids so heavy? Are you sleepy?"

The empress was so considerate, her brows softened immediately, she yawned long, and leaned her chin on her shoulder, humming: "Come sleep with me~" Cen Zhu looked at her lazy and sleepy look, Guessing that she might be really exhausted last night, she picked her up and went to the dormitory.

When Yun Zai saw Her Majesty the Empress? Again? He was carried back by the consort Guowei like a pendant, he couldn't see it.Fortunately, she drove away the people around her in advance, Huangwei, Your Majesty?!

In the sleeping tent, Li Jingchen was sleeping soundly, and was sucked one by one on the neck, mouth, cheeks, and earlobe, "Wake up, it's been two hours, if you don't get up again, you will become a pig girl."

Li Jingchen was woken up by her with a smile, scratched his ears in dissatisfaction, said "um", and continued to sleep with his neck around her.Cen Zhu woke up half an hour earlier than her, and he didn't know how many times he wiped the oil until she woke up slowly.How could she fall asleep again, "Who said that the banquet at night is a big deal? You even have plausible excuses not to allow me to drag you back. I think I have to drag you in order to drag you, pig girl, to the banquet."

It was only then that Li Jingchen remembered that there was still a major event to be done, so he stretched out his two snow-white arms reluctantly, and was pulled out of the bed.

The banquet was held in the "Palace of Inaction", and almost all the ministers and wives of the six cabinet departments were present.Fu Mingqi, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, stroked his beard, noticed the plaque at the gate of the palace, and said with a smile: "Quiet and inaction, this plaque implies a deep meaning."

"But I think it's a little inappropriate to live in the palace." Dali Temple Qing Yue Haiyu said.

"Just rest assured, with Cen Zhuo's character, he will definitely not commit adultery | messing with the harem." Wang Zhongxu always expressed his feelings directly, but the other adults collectively "coughed"?

"Am I wrong? Even if you build a mansion outside the palace, you still have to come to the palace often. If you want to, you can't stop it."

The peacemaker Gao Tongchuan said: "Old Wangge's words are not unreasonable. In fact, there is no precedent for the king's dynasty to live in the palace. Our first empress, Emperor Filial Piety, even put the two son-in-laws at the same time. Didn’t there be any big troubles when they were restrained into the palace? Don’t stand here, the elders, the banquet is about to start, let’s go in quickly.”

Jiang Yiting and Chuan Feiyan supported each other and came to the palace.Chuan Feiyan's body was already very heavy. Originally, Jiang Yiting was worried about her and didn't want her to come, but this sister's uncompromising temperament, how can I miss it? Such excitement.Now standing tall at the gate of Wuwei Palace, his expression is like that of a barefoot fairy who participated in the Peach Blossom Festival, and even nine cows can't pull him back.

Jiang Yiting looked at the plaque and sighed for some reason.

Chuan Feiyan was in a good mood, and suddenly became dissatisfied, "Why are you sighing when you are so good? It's really a sight."

Jiang Yiting said: "I sigh, with Cen Zhu's talent, he should have done more, but now it's a pity to live here."

Chuan Feiyan said: "What do you know? You men are allowed to trap women at home, and women are not allowed to trap you at home? The younger siblings are loving each other, why are you worrying so much?"

Jiang Yiting was just about to refute, but then he was very strange: "Ma'am, where did you get the title of 'sister and younger brother'? Although we are both teachers and relatives with Cen Zhu, but with Your Majesty? After all, there are differences between monarchs and ministers. Admit it, you must never leak your words in front of others! lest you bring trouble to Cen Zhu."

Chuan Feiyan covered her mouth with a handkerchief, "I know, I need you to remind me! It's enough not to say it in front of others. You are nervous, are you afraid that I will hold you back?"

"How dare you dare!"

Bao Siniang and Yanhui were also fortunate to be invited into the palace to participate in the banquet. Yanhui acted as if he had never seen the world before, "wow" all the way, "This palace is really different from ordinary people's homes. A Yuqing The lake is worth five or six large manors. I never thought that I would be able to visit the emperor’s old man’s house in my lifetime. It’s really worthwhile! Hey lady boss, how did you know how to bet so much? Why did you specify that you could bet? As for the Empress Dowager, Lu Buwei's eyesight is not as good as yours."

Speaking of "betting on treasure", it is a long story.With a smile on her lips, Bao Siniang looked at the double-height building with colorful lights hanging on the bank of Yuqing Lake, and for some reason, she felt so moved.

From the crown prince to the queen, from the separation of the two places to the marriage, from impossible to possible.Only by witnessing their separation and reunion, right and wrong, will you understand how difficult it is to see everything in front of you.

The shock and touch these two people brought her was far more than that.

They taught her that self-cultivation, governing the family, governing the country and the world are not exclusive to men.Realizing oneself and benefiting others can also be regarded as the lifelong pursuit of the daughter's family.

If one wish could be made, Bao Siniang would be very willing to allow them to grow old together.

But I feel that their covenant of whiteheads does not need to rely on the external force of others? It can be achieved hand in hand.

This is probably the power of love? Only the most unforgettable feelings can give people an indestructible reliance.

When Cen Zhu arrived with the empress, the officials and wives were already waiting at the bottom of the steps.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" The roar of the mountains and the tsunami almost knocked off the roof of the entire palace.

Cen Zhu's eyes lingered on this palace that would become his "nest" in the future, thinking to himself that this place is really big enough, the front hall where they are alone is more than four times larger than his main building in Cen Mansion. five times.Not to mention, the two-story main hall in the middle hall is much higher than the front hall, while the apse hall is located directly on the water. temple.

When Cen Zhu came, he could see from a distance that the three main halls were arranged along the central axis to form a large palace with three entrances. In terms of grandeur, it was hardly inferior to the Yaohua Palace in the center.

And because the palace was built next to the lake, the shape of the three main halls is much more natural and lively than the solemn and majestic Yaohua Palace.Especially the Fuju Hall in the middle is the most obvious.

Fuju Hall is the hall above the hall. There is a virtual eaves between the two floors of the hall, and the golden tiles are stacked, majestic and magnificent.

On the east and west sides of the main hall, there is a tower-style high platform. On the platform, there are tall pavilions with four corners, which are graceful and unique in shape like flying cranes spreading their wings.There is a flying bridge between the high pavilion and the main hall on the second floor, and there is a diagonal corridor at the front and back slowly leading down, connecting the ground, like the jade arms of a beauty, which is not only convenient for passage, but also adds charm.

And its hall name is also very interesting, the front hall is called Wuwei Hall, the middle hall is called Fuju Hall, and the back hall is called Buzheng Hall.It's all the Taoist set of quiet and inaction.The east door they came in just now is called Xiaoxian Gate, and it is said that there is another door on the west side called Xuanxuan Gate, which leads to Yuqing Lake in the northeast.

Looking around, Cen Zhu felt more and more that this Wuwei Palace seemed to have no other flaws other than its size, beauty, and splendor.She thought to herself, Li Jingchen was really generous, if he gave her such a big palace, wouldn't she be afraid of the government and the public talking about it?Later, she realized that she was thinking too much. What they really meant was that although the palace was given to you, she still wanted to move here.And forcibly requisitioned two of the three main halls for her office use, leaving half of them for her free disposal.It is said to be freely controlled, but the piano room, chess room, study room, and studio, none of which are missing the vertical and horizontal planning of Her Majesty the Queen.

"I said, since you want to intervene so much, why don't you just move your Yaohua Palace here!"

Later, of course, there was a big fight, and Cen Zhu was forced to admit that he "wandered astray, deliberately flew solo, didn't know good and bad, and was trapped in a poor city", "the location of the tea room is not good, drinking water will be choked by the sky", "the taste of the dormitory is too good, Bad, I can't escape nightmares every night."Since then, the world has been peaceful.

But at that time, amidst the uniform visits of all officials and wives, Cen Zhu had never expected the "suffering" in the future.Only immersed in the joy of officially marrying the queen.When Yanhui toasted her, he smiled and said, "It's really Fengshui and Fengshui! I think if I hadn't dragged you back then, you would have become the first son-in-law's sword? The soul. Who would have thought that after so many years, you would be Became the son-in-law of Her Majesty the Empress. Tell me, should I deserve a big credit."

Others came to bless, but she came to ask for rewards.Bao Siniang said embarrassedly: "Don't listen to her."

Cen Zhu smiled happily, "I want to listen, I want to listen. If it hadn't been for the banquet back then, I might have died. Both of you are my nobles. I don't want to thank you for your kindness. I respect you two three cups." .”

When Jiang Yiting and Chuan Feiyan came up, the banquet was almost over. It was said that Chuan Feiyan's fetus moved so badly halfway that she had to go to the side hall to rest. Li Jingchen invited the imperial physician to take her pulse, and then she stabilized? The two came in the morning.

At that time, the lights in the hall were dim, and the guests all showed slightly drunken expressions on their faces.Her Majesty the Queen? Standing together with the consort of the country, the incomparably harmonious scene made many people belatedly say that it was made in heaven and the earth was made, and it was a feast for the eyes.

Even Fu Mingqi, who was worried that something would go wrong because of his talking too much about the selection of the son-in-law, let go of the burden in his heart, and showed a very gratified smile. It seems that the king's son-in-law was not wrong.

Li Jingzhu set up a special seat for Chuan Feiyan and his wife in front of the imperial court. Chuan Feiyan called Cen Zhu over and stood beside the empress. He held their hands together and held them together, "That's great." , I am more happy than anyone else to see you getting married in your lifetime. I have nothing to say except touching and blessings. I wish you a long life, give birth to a noble daughter early, grow old together, and stay with you for a lifetime."

Li Jingzhu and Cen Zhuo looked at each other, held each other's hands tightly, and smiled tacitly.

Jiang Yiting, on the other hand, was stunned by the scene of the three of them united together.Did he ever miss? What? What?

On the censor's seat under the steps, someone showed a disdainful expression, "I said Your Majesty? Why do you always have a high opinion of Jiang Yiting. It turns out that there is a reason for this." The rest of the censors did not speak. After the banquet, all the censors Shi Du gathered around Zhao Chen to discuss, "Master Zhao, what do you think about this matter?"

"what's up?"

"Your Majesty? Is it true that the Supreme Emperor ordered Cen Zhu to be recruited? If the Supreme Emperor really participated in it, why did your Majesty? From the wedding to the banquet, the Supreme Emperor has not shown himself? Your Majesty? Take filial piety as the most important thing." Doesn't it set an example?"

"If you feel that your Majesty? What you have done violates filial piety, then you can hand over the paperwork. What's the use of telling me?"

The other party choked? Naturally, he didn't dare.But he didn't seem to accept this result, especially in front of Zhao Chen, who was once the most unprovoked stalker, the usual aggressiveness suddenly didn't work, which was more uncomfortable than the suggestion not being adopted.Just about to speak, Zhao Chen said:

"Let me advise you, Cen Zhuo is now the prince consort, no matter how reluctant you are now, you have to accept this fact. She and Your Majesty have become one. If there is no conclusive evidence, any speculation will be regarded as false. The slander against His Majesty can be directly accused. Don’t blame me for not saying the ugly things first, you want to die yourself, don’t ruin the reputation of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.”

After saying that, he threw his sleeves and left.

"This Zhao Chen has changed his face ever since he became the deputy chief censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and he suddenly became arrogant. Look at his performance, he is really a villain..."

"Don't blame Mr. Zhao, Mr. Zhao is in a bad mood recently. Mr. Shen went to Qingyang to handle the case, and the return date was delayed again and again. He was in charge of the supervision of Jiangnan, so he went to the north for some reason. Put it down ?A big stall that no one has cleaned up. You also know that Jiangnan is in a mess right now, and it's not easy to find someone to take over again. If he doesn't come back, Landucha will probably dismiss Master Zhao."

"Why did you dismiss Master Zhao?"

"Because it's his stamp of approval for Shen Xi."

"So that's it. Then Mr. Shen is too uninteresting. How could he not return after the deadline? Was he delayed by something?"

"Who knows. Don't tell me something happened. Look at my crow's mouth. What kind of accident can happen? It must be delayed by something. Just wait patiently."
