Chapter 430： Palace Banquet (middle)

   After hearing this, not only Mrs. Yuan, but also several other old Feng-Juns nodded slightly, and became fond of Li Jinghua.

Xia Shi couldn't help but feel happy when he saw the soft expressions on the faces of several old Fengjun.

Mu Yangling stood on the side and smiled the whole time, answering a few words from time to time, and then followed Li Jinghua back to their seats when it was getting late, and the Xia family had already been pulled away.

Mu Yangling saw that she and Li Jinghua were the only two, so he let out a sigh of relief, "It's really tiring, it's more tiring than me ploughing for three days."

Qi Haoran also said goodbye to Fan Zijin and came back, and whispered to Mu Yangling, "I will take you out for a horse race in the third day of junior high."

Mu Yangling glanced at Li Jinghua, Li Jinghua waved his hand and smiled: "Don't look at me, you can go if you want, I'm not a child, and now Zhaode Hall is like a copper wall, I really don't know how you What are you worried about?"

The husband and wife both smiled embarrassedly. Qi Haoran was nervous because Li Jinghua was the first son of his eldest brother in more than 20 years. Others are at the age of eldest brother, and their children can enter the college. Moreover, it is expected that in the next few years. During the year, the sister-in-law has to stay in the capital, and this child is naturally very important.

And Mu Yangling's nervousness is because she has watched too many costume dramas in her previous life. Since living in Qi Mansion, she has no sense of security.

Mu Yangling also seemed to know that she was a little too nervous, and those who didn't know it thought she was pregnant.

She held her chin and thought for a while, then whispered, "I really want to move out."

Li Jinghua just shook her head with a laugh. To her, the Qi Mansion was nothing at all. The environment of their Li family was more than a hundred times more complicated than that of the Qi Mansion. She lived to this day with her father and brother disabled and her mother weak and married Qi Xiuyuan. , it depends on more than luck.

But since there is no need to push it out since someone is worried and concerned about herself, she feels that she still enjoys the feeling of being kept in her heart and held in her hand at all times.

Qi Haoran's eyes dimmed, and he lowered his brows, wondering what he was thinking.

Qi Feng and Wu Shi came back proudly, and the banquet was about to start.

Qi Haoran raised his head and looked at the two of them, with ridicule flashing in his eyes. I'm afraid the two of them didn't know they were the laughing stock, right?

Thinking of this Qi Haoran made me angry. If Chen Qian hadn't told him, he wouldn't even know that they were all jokes. Although everyone condemned these two people, they could be talked about in this way and brought up as a joke. Time and time again, it's strange to be happy.

So when Qi Feng came over, Qi Haoran's face was cold and he didn't mean to get up at all.

Li Jinghua winked at him and he didn't even see it. Li Jinghua saw that Qi Feng was about to walk in front of him, so he couldn't help but secretly anxiously glanced at Mu Yangling. No matter what Qi Feng did to them, he was the father and Qi Haoran was the son. He can't express dissatisfaction with him, otherwise, they will not be in an advantageous position no matter how much they take advantage of.

Mu Yangling stretched out his hand and pinched Qi Haoran's waist, and then stabbed his back with his fingers, Qi Haoran got up reluctantly, and Li Jinghua heaved a sigh of relief. They didn't sit down until Qi Feng and Mrs Wu sat down.

It didn't take long for a few people to sit down, and then the sound of the clean whip sounded. Qi Feng hurriedly took them and followed everyone out of the table and knelt down in the aisle. After waiting for a long time, the **** shouted that the emperor and the queen were coming, and Mu Yangling followed everyone. After shouting long live three times, I heard a gentle male voice, "Be flat, don't be too restrained, everyone should be seated."

Only then did everyone get up and take their seats. Mu Yangling sat behind Qi Haoran, raised his head and looked up. The emperor and the empress were sitting on top wearing bright yellow dragon and phoenix robes. They were all lit, so in the orange light, Mu Yangling could see clearly the appearance of the emperor and the queen with his super eyesight, making sure that if they were on the street, she would definitely be able to recognize them at a glance.

The queen is very dignified and bright, but the emperor, um, how should I put it, he is also a handsome uncle, but he is much older than the queen. Doesn't it mean that the emperor and the queen are married couples, and the teenagers have been with each other until now? Why does the age gap look so big?

Either the queen is too well maintained, or the emperor is too sad and old too fast, Mu Yangling thinks that there may be both.

Mu Yangling stared at the emperor and the queen thinking wildly, Li Jinghua turned her head to see how bold she was, and was so frightened that she hurriedly tugged at her sleeve, she only dared to look up when she got up just now, this child is too bold Now, you dare to look straight up, what if someone finds out?

Mu Yangling calmly retracted her gaze and looked sideways upwards. There sat Qin Xiang, the first traitor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. She glanced curiously and found that he looked very ordinary. Wearing this court dress, that is, a rich man, but Brother Qi and Brother Rong are very afraid of this person, even more afraid of the emperor.

Before being re-used by Emperor Jingyan, there was no strong financial power and no strong family. Just relying on the emperor's favor, he was able to control the emperor and the government for ten years in the turbulent times and the interweaving of various rights. How did this heart grow? , I don't know how many hearts and minds there are. It's better not to mess with such people as much as possible, just hide.

Mu Yangling made up her mind secretly, but the final facts told her that determination was nothing.

When Mu Yangling looked at these big men who stomped the world and trembled three times, the emperor delivered a warm New Year's speech, and by the way, he praised his great achievements in the 27 years since he ascended the throne, and his bright prospects for the future, and then He raised his glass and had a toast with the crowd, which was considered a toast.

Mu Yangling drank a drink and saw that Li Jinghua wanted to drink, but was about to stop her, but found that she was covering her face with her sleeves, and the glass of wine had entered her sleeves.

Mu Yangling was stunned for a moment, and when she put down her sleeves, her hand quietly touched it, but she touched a soft object.

Li Jinghua glared at Mu Yangling with a smile, and whispered in her ear, "This is a sponge, didn't I send it to you? You didn't take it?"

Mu Yangling was embarrassed, because Li Jinghua sent too many things, she didn't look carefully, and gave them all to Lichun, I'm afraid Lichun didn't quite understand the use of this thing.

Li Jinghua just asked a question and didn't say any more, but focused on the song and dance performance in front of her.

In fact, the palace banquet is similar to the Spring Festival Gala, singing and dancing, juggling and sword dancing. After reading these, there are also performances by some courtiers or princesses. For example, a princess played a song on the spot before, and now it is Qi Haoran's. My good friend Chen Qian is performing a painting, using a poem from the emperor and a stick of incense.

Mu Yangling asked Qi Haoran in a low voice, "How are the candidates for this annual performance selected?"
