Your Majesty favors the beauty of bamboo horse disease

Banquet

Where are you going, Your Majesty! !

Shen Yuzhu brought Xie Yuanshi into the hall together, and the two walked side by side, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.

King Qin was ill the day before yesterday, the emperor was not in the palace these few days except for the court meeting, all the courtiers knew about it.

So no one thought it was strange that they came in together, and there was even a feeling that it should be so.

Xie Yuanshi's appearance and demeanor followed that of Princess Qin. When he was not smiling, he looked clear and cold, like the unmelted white snow on the top of a snow mountain.

But his gentle and gentle smile is like spring when ice melts and snow melts.

Compared with the awe-inspiring and inviolable power of the emperor, Xie Yuanshi is more popular with the girls in Shangjing than Shen Yuzhu.

But the goal of the families tonight is not Xie Yuanshi, everyone knows what the purpose of Elder Song Ge's efforts to promote the Hundred Flowers Banquet is.

There are still many aristocratic families with women of the right age who want to fight for the position of the middle palace.

The Hundred Flowers Banquet was hosted by Princess Hualing, so the princess who rarely appeared in front of people is here tonight, and her son-in-law Gu Yuan is also with her.

When all the officials of the family were seated, the son-in-law and the princess both took their seats. The son-in-law naturally slightly raised his hand to support Princess Hualing. The distance between each seat and the seat was fixed, but after the son-in-law sat down, he was closer to the princess.

It was widely rumored that Princess Hualing and her son-in-law did not care about court affairs and kept a low profile. Only a few familiar people knew that the couple had been married for many years and were very affectionate.

Elder Song Ge, who discussed the Hundred Flowers Banquet with Princess Hualing this time, has a deep understanding.

The son-in-law is considerate to Princess Hualing. Their only son, Gu Dongzang, is 16 years old when he is the most rebellious and unpredictable.

The so-called harmony between the family and the house is roughly like the family of the Princess Mansion.

As a veteran minister of the two dynasties, Song Ge thought that he had watched Shen Yuzhu grow into the current state of being able to support Daqi with one hand.

I don't know if Shen Yuzhu will get along with the queen in the future like Princess Hualing and her son-in-law.But judging from the emperor's care for King Qin, Song Ge nodded his head. The emperor is a caring, caring and patient person.

I don't know who arranged it for Princess Hualing and Elder Song Ge, but Xie Yuanshi's seat was next to Shen Yuzhu's.

Shen Yuzhu took off Xie Yuanshi's cloak as a matter of course, and handed it to the palace servant behind him.

Xie Yuanshi didn't think there was a problem for a while, but Princess Hualing's eyes seemed to be on him and Shen Yuzhu all the time since he sat down, and the son-in-law's arm that was originally stretched towards the princess stopped, and just froze in the air.

Xie Yuanshi realized later that——

Something seems wrong.

He has always paid attention to keeping a distance from Shen Yuzhu as a monarch and minister. Shen Yuzhu is the emperor, so he should pay attention to his identity when speaking and acting.

Especially in front of outsiders, but after all they are too close, Xie Yuanshi will naturally forget about it every once in a while.

This time Shen Yuzhu took care of him who was sick for two or three days in a row, and Xie Yuanshi forgot about these things, so there was an extremely smooth movement of taking off the cloak just now.

Xie Yuanshi frowned slightly, Shen Yuzhu turned sideways and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong? What are you looking at?"

But the son-in-law and Princess Hualing saw them not because they thought there was something wrong with Xie Yuanshi being taken care of by Shen Yuzhu, but because...

Shen Yuzhu followed Xie Yuanshi's line of sight to the direction of Princess Hualing and her son-in-law on the right.

The son-in-law withdrew his gaze, exchanged a glance with Princess Hualing, moved his hand that was frozen in the air, and stretched out to take off the cloak for Princess Hualing.

Xie Yuanshi: "..."

Shen Yuzhu: "..."

Xie Yuanshi turned his head to the side and said to Shen Yuzhu: "Do you also feel that..."

Shen Yuzhu said "Yes": "It means that our relationship is as good as theirs."

Xie Yuanshi frowned, with some doubts in his eyes: "Is that so?"

Shen Yuzhu pinched his cheek: "Otherwise? That's just a coincidence, what are you thinking about?"

Xie Yuanshi stepped back: "!"

Shen Yuzhu: "?"

"Your Majesty, you should keep a serious image in front of the courtiers..."

Shen Yuzhu glanced down at the officials who were almost forgotten by him, and gave up temporarily.

After the banquet, dance and music, it's time for the ladies of the aristocratic family to show off. When entering the palace, the palace people hold a tray at the door, and each noble lady will choose between hairpins and jade hairpins.

This is the practice of the Hundred Flowers Banquet. Girls who come to watch choose jade hairpins, and girls who are going to perform at the banquet take their seats with hairpins in hand.

Different numbers are tattooed on each hairpin flower, representing the default order, but the actual order of performance is not entirely based on the hairpin flower, and the girls will be humble to each other.

This year's Hundred Flowers Banquet is a little different from the past. The hairpin flowers are divided into three colors, red, cyan, and pink, corresponding to different skill displays.

The second girl, Meng Anlan, had a red hairpin on the back of her head. She was the first to come on stage, dancing with a long sword in her hand.

All the generals sitting in a row clapped their hands and applauded. This sword move is smooth, and the wind of the sword is fierce. "General Meng has raised a good child, and a woman will not give up to a man!"

Xie Yuanshi watched the whole process without blinking, feeling admiration in his heart.

This body of martial arts is indeed a hero among women!

There was a wrinkle on Song Ge's forehead.

The emperor kept his head down and peeled the oranges, but His Highness King Qin was so fascinated by it that he didn't notice that there were already three peeled oranges piled up on his desk.

Elder Song Ge summoned the palace servants and whispered some instructions in his ear.

There were also a few girls who showed martial arts. Although they were all excellent, they were still inferior to Meng Anlan who was the first to play.

A palace official walked by with a tray containing cyan hairpins, and put the hairpins on the table under the court.

The palace people prepared paper and pens on the table, and the girl who chose the blue hairpin painted freely off the court, and accompanied the painting with poems.

And the girls who choose the pink hairpin flowers will show off their dancing postures one by one.

Xie Yuanshi lacks interest in singing and dancing, and looks forward to the exhibition of paintings later.

Just at this moment, a palace man came over to refill his wine, stood beside him and whispered a few words at a volume that only the two of them could hear.

Xie Yuanshi raised his eyebrows and raised his hand, but accidentally collided with the arm of the palace man Tianjiu, and the palace man made a mistake and spilled the wine in the jug onto Xie Yuanshi's leg.

Xie Yuanshi's clothes were suddenly wet.

The music in the arena was as usual, and because it was behind the table, not many people noticed the movement here, and most of them were watching the graceful dance in the arena.

Shen Yuzhu was the closest, his complexion instantly dropped, and he was about to scold the clumsy palace servant.

Xie Yuanshi grabbed his sleeve in time, afraid that if he uttered a word, the whole banquet people would look over: "It's okay, it's okay, I'll go and change it."

Shen Yuzhu was about to get up: "I'll accompany you."

Xie Yuanshi pressed his shoulder: "No, I'll come back as soon as I go. The banquet is open, Your Majesty should not leave the banquet halfway."

Shen Yuzhu reluctantly sat in his original position, looking at the dancing girls, feeling very bored.

Another girl came on stage, it was Hua Qinzhu, a girl from Hualiu who was famous for her dancing in Shangjing.

Experts knew when they made a move, and just two movements attracted everyone present to sit upright involuntarily.

With a slim figure and elegant dancing posture, he was born in the Hua family of a noble family in Shangjing, with strict family precepts and extraordinary education.

Elder Song Ge was very satisfied with Miss Hualiu, so he turned his head to look at Shen Yuzhu. Shen Yuzhu took a look and thought that the dance was really good, but soon peeled two oranges absent-mindedly.

Elder Song Ge: "..." What are you doing? This is it!

He even sent someone to send His Highness King Qin away, why is the emperor still peeling fruit!

Shen Yuzhu not only failed to receive Elder Song Ge's voice, but also threw away the fruit peel.

Don't look!

Go find Yuanshi!

Elder Song Ge: "?"

Where to go?

where to go! !
