Chapter 128 Jinyu Palace Banquet
The autumn wind gradually picked up, and the vermilion window sills in Prince Rui's mansion were replaced with autumn-scented and emerald curtains.The little girls huddled together, one said you stepped on my skirt, the other said handing over the scissors, and the voices were always overlapping, creating a commotion.
The woman in charge came over, she didn't look like that, she stood under the steps and raised her head and said: "Girls, calm down. You will make a fuss as soon as the master leaves the house. If you come back carefully, you will be rewarded with ten boards."
Little girls, you look at me, I look at you, all of them are silent, and when the woman walks away, someone laughs first, and the noise starts again, and the birds on the sycamore tree flutter in shock. The wings yelled and flew away.
This day Prince Rui and Princess Rui were not in the mansion, early in the morning the young couple wore crowns, fresh clothes and angry horses, went out with twelve personal guards, and went straight to the palace.
As the city was moistened by the autumn rain, the rain and fog along the way were all smeared, fearing that it would be impolite when the clothes were wet and the face was sacred, the guards couldn't persuade them, so Zhou Mubai gave up riding the horse and sat in the car with Shen Xianxun.
Today is the 50th birthday of the empress dowager, the emperor issued three decrees a day to pray for the empress dowager.The first book is that the entire territory of Ruiguo will reduce taxes by [-]% during the autumn harvest; the second book is that all counties in the world set up government-affiliated county schools, so that poor children can have opportunities to make progress; Distribute the "Infinite Life Sutra" and "Amitabha Sutra", donate steamed buns, porridge and noodles every day for three days, without charging a penny, and the poor people enjoy the same joy with the Queen Mother.
Inside and outside the imperial city, the ordinary people at the foot of the emperor were the first to taste the sweetness of the decree, and there was joy from top to bottom.
In the treasure-topped cart pulled by white horses with golden bridles, Shen Xianxun was wearing a crimson prince's and princess' formal dress with wide sleeves and gold everywhere, and was looking at the street with the curtain lifted.Zhou Mubai poked his head over to take a look, and saw a few children running back and forth holding the windmill, with clear laughter.
"Why don't we ask the nanny to bring Zheng'er Hua'er over to the car?" Mu Bai put his hand on Xian Xun's waist, and got close, smelling the scent of balm on Xian Xun's neck.
Xian Xun put down the curtain, sat upright and said, "I got up too early in the morning, and when I went out, I yawned and wanted to sleep. Now I'm making trouble with them, and you don't care when I wake up." She gave her a glance.
Mubai saw her charming eyes, like a hibiscus blooming in Jingong City.She retracted her arm around her waist, wanting to steal the fragrance.Xian Xun hid for a while, and said angrily: "The makeup on my face is going to take off! How can I see my mother in a while!"
Mu Bai refuses to obey, insists on kissing him, his skill at cheating is on the rise, and his whole body is groaning and sticking to Xian Xun's body.Xian Xun was helpless, hugged her arm and coaxed: "Wait until you go back to the house. I will promise you... kiss when I go back to the house at night."
As he spoke, his face was stained red, and he quietly pushed Mu Bai's hand wrapped around his waist.
Mu Bai just laughed when he heard it, and after a while, he leaned into her ear and said, "When I return home at night, I won't just kiss once, I will kiss many times."
Xian Xun bit her lip and twisted the back of her hand with a blushing face.
Mubai's eyes were fixed on the red lips she was biting, and suddenly he pinched her chin lightly, and finally "chirped" on her lips.
Xian Xun was annoyed, stomped her feet and said, "You...!!! You've already kissed, so you won't be allowed tonight!"
Mu Bai grabbed her hand and laughed: "This is interest. I'll collect the principal when I return to the mansion at night."
Xian Xun gritted her teeth, but felt helpless, seeing her smiling face, raised her hand and pinched it vigorously a few times.
The carriage came to a halt, and Xiao Tuanzi, who was sitting on the shaft outside, said, "Your Highness, master, we have arrived at the north gate of the palace."
The empress dowager's birthday ceremony was held in every possible way, civil and military officials and officials from all states and counties all sent congratulatory gifts, and the four singing servants sang dryly with a long list of gifts.
Zhou Mubai held Zhou Yuanzheng by the hand, Shen Xianxun hugged Zhou Huawan, the family of Prince Rui's Mansion went to Jinyu Palace to kowtow to the Empress Dowager, Zheng Xuan took Hua'er, hugged her in his arms and kissed her, then held Yuanzheng's hand and asked He has some words.
Although Zhou Yuanzheng was only two years old, under the careful guidance of Shen Xianxun, he could already babble and memorize several short poems. Now he was standing beside the emperor's grandmother solemnly, and articulated a poem by the former emperor Zhou Lin. Huaiyuan recited it again.At the end, she knelt down and kowtowed while holding a chubby longevity peach: "Pour the amber into the thousand-year-old wine, and the flat peaches hold the sun for a long life. The grandson and younger sister wish the emperor's grandmother good fortune and longevity."
"Okay, okay. Zheng'er is good, and Hua'er is also good." Zheng Xuan smiled and raised his hand, and Aunt Lu immediately stepped forward to help the young man up.
Someone moved chairs around Zheng Xuan, on the left sat the crown prince Zhou Yuanyu, and on the right sat Zhou Yuanzheng, the young son of Prince Rui's residence. They both sat at the same table with the Empress Dowager Zheng. Hua'er was only one year old, so she was handed over to the wet nurse to sit in the back a seat.
In the midst of the commotion, he suddenly saw a servant running to Zhou Muchen's side, and whispered something back, Zhou Muchen smiled and said, "Oh? What a coincidence? Let him come in to have an audience." As he spoke, he approached the Empress Dowager and chatted a few words with a smile. The eyes also lit up.
Layers upon layers of singing came out from the gate of Jinyu Palace, and after a while, Bailimo led the officials from Shangshan Kingdom in, kowtowed heavily to Zheng Xuan, and presented Baiduan with birthday gifts.This group of people was going to come early to celebrate the birthday, when Zhou Mudi was about to go out, he felt unwell, so he passed the pulse to the imperial doctor, only then did he know that Mudi was pregnant for more than two months.Bailimo was overjoyed and reluctant to part with him in every possible way, but Mudi scolded him and insisted that he personally deliver the queen mother's birthday present.
Zheng Xuan and Zhou Muchen were overjoyed when they heard this, and immediately ordered their left and right to prepare countless congratulatory gifts, and also asked Baili Mo to tell Zhou Muge to stay with his sister, and not to rush back to the court, as all rewards and expenses would be thickened Dotted several times.
For a while, all the officials congratulated, and the palace was peacefully sung and danced. Unconsciously, dusk was approaching, and the auspicious palace lanterns of lotus flowers were lit one by one, illuminating the buildings with double eaves and verandas.In front of the white jade steps, there are many flowers and branches, blooming in full bloom.The birthday banquet was laid out from the vestibule of Jinyu Palace, and a group of young official girls surrounded Zheng Xuan, ringing with emerald beads, singing birds and swallows, accompanying the Queen Mother to watch the graceful dance of the palace servants in the music workshop in the pool.
The palace was full of music, and the night was getting thicker. Zhou Mubai held up a small wine bottle and looked at the Empress Dowager's table through the Yingyingyanyan that was full of the hall. With just one glance, she saw Shen Xianxun who was dressed in a scarlet brocade, and she also drank a little. After drinking the wine, even though she was not deeply drunk, her face was already stained a little red, like a beautiful rouge jade, just waiting for her to hide in her arms and softly comfort her.Mu Bai thought, and smiled softly, Xian Xun seemed to sense her gaze, looking back at each other among the flowers, the eyes were shining, filled with autumn water.
Zhou Muyu, who was sitting at Mubai's banquet, saw her staring intently at the group of young girls, and came over to laugh and said, "The empress is waiting impatiently, so she wants to choose a concubine for the eldest brother herself, right?"
Only then did Zhou Mubai move his eyes away from Xian Xun, glanced at the seat, and said: "Probably yes. There is only the prince and a child in the harem, and he is also lonely. Naturally, the queen mother is thinking about the elder brother of the emperor before spreading out. "
Zhou Muyu clapped his hands, smiled slightly and said, "Bihua is only fifteen or sixteen years old, the most lovely age, I just don't know who will get it in the end."
Zhou Mubai frowned, and said coldly, "Fifth Brother, you're drunk."
Zhou Muyu was stunned for a moment, as if he just came back to his senses, his chubby face woke up a lot, and he immediately apologized: "It's my brother's fault, I shouldn't be talking nonsense. This is not watching my mother's birthday, my brother's heart I'm happy, I drank a few more glasses, third brother, don't blame me when I go." He picked up the jade pot and filled Mubai's glass himself, then raised the wine bottle with both hands, and bowed to him.
Mu Bai didn't say anything more, took the wine and drank it slowly, turned around and took Xiao Guozi who was with him, and went to the apse.
Zhou Muyu slowly raised his head, his eyes were full of killing, fleeting.
The fine wine used in the palace today is all tribute wine, fragrant and clear, Mubai also drank several cups unknowingly, feeling drunk, a little dizzy, holding Xiao Guozi's arm and turning out of the back hall of Jinyu Palace, the cold wind After brushing my face, I felt refreshed.
In the dark sky, there are crystal stars shining, the moonlight is smudged, and the clouds are slightly swaying.Thin pipe music, shengxiao, and flute came from the palace, and across the colorful four-season flower garden, there were several degrees of human wind (flow).
Zhou Mubai walked around the flower garden, his alcohol had dissipated a little, and was about to walk towards the front hall, when he suddenly saw a slim figure walking out of the side hall where she had been recuperating, she instinctively shouted: "Who!"
The figure was startled, paused at her cold reprimand, and then walked down the steps. The bright red palace lanterns under the eaves reflected her young and beautiful appearance, and the red corners of her eyes were still red. Leaving traces of crying.
"Qi'er pays tribute to Prince Rui, and Prince Rui is safe and blessed." The girl leaned forward and said with trembling eyelashes.
