Chapter 40

Feng Chenghan nodded and raised his hand to signal Qi Yan to excuse herself.

Qi Yan straightened up and watched Feng Chenghan walk to the main seat and sit down.

When Lan Bi and the other concubines saw this, they all cursed Qi Yan for being shameless.A daughter who has not yet left the court is really not ashamed to stare at a man like this.I don’t know how the Princess of Chang’an teaches her daughter.

The emperor arrived and the banquet began.

The musicians sitting in the corner played cheerful silk and bamboo music.

"Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, let's have a drink together!" The Queen Mother held up the wine glass.

The concubines stood up holding wine glasses, and the Queen Mother and the Emperor clinked glasses from a distance.

After the Queen Mother finished drinking, she thought of her prince who was far away in the fiefdom, and sighed: "If Ye'er were here, we would really be reunited."

This Mid-Autumn Festival was supposed to be a day for family members, and they were all in the imperial city, but she could only stay alone in the fief for the rest of the night.

Hearing this, Qi Yan tilted her head and said, "If my aunt misses my cousin Night King, just ask the emperor's cousin to issue an edict and order my cousin Night King to come to Beijing to see my aunt." This is the simplest thing. .

Once the prince is crowned king, he must go to the fiefdom and cannot enter the capital without an edict.

Fengcheng said coldly: "If the queen misses the emperor's brother, she should have told her earlier. I will issue an edict to let the emperor's brother enter the palace to accompany the queen."

"When Aijia's birthday is in October, it will be the same if you issue an edict to let him come to the capital." If the emperor had her as his mother in his heart, there would be no need for her to tell him that she misses Ye'er, he would just issue the edict himself Let Ye'er go to Beijing.

Dancers wearing red gauze came in like fish and danced gracefully in the hall.Everyone in the hall was drinking and eating while enjoying the dancers' dance.

The end of the song, the end of the dance.

The Queen Mother glanced at Feng Chenghan and said, "I remember that Yan'er danced very well. Why not let Yan'er dance to cheer us up!"

Feng Chenghan held the wine glass and said nothing.

The concubines lowered their eyelids to block the look of contempt in their eyes.

Didn't the Queen Mother let Qi Yan dance because she wanted her to show off in front of the Emperor and seduce him?

Qi Yan stood up, shyly blessed Fu and said, "Then Yan'er is more respectful than obeying orders."

A few days ago, her aunt sent someone to the palace to tell her to go to the palace for a Mid-Autumn Festival banquet and make good preparations so that she could perform well in front of the emperor's cousin.Therefore, she has been practicing this dance for several days, just to shine in front of the emperor's cousin today.

"Then let me play the piano and accompany the princess!" Concubine Li stood up with a smile.

When Lan Bin heard this, her eyes flashed, and she stood up quickly and said, "I will help the princess sing with her."

They couldn't let Princess Qi Yan get out of this limelight alone.

With this accompaniment and the accompaniment of the singers, the other concubines were only one step late and missed the opportunity to perform in front of the emperor, secretly gritting their teeth.

Qi Yan's eyes twitched slightly. Although she didn't want Concubine Li and Lan Bin to help her sing and sing, she couldn't refuse, so she had to force out a smile and said: "Then I'll trouble you two sisters." Yes." As she said this, she also blessed the two of them.

Qi Yan walked to the hall and took a pose.

Concubine Li played the harp, and a light and sweet song flew out of Lan Bin's mouth.Qi Yan shyly glanced at Feng Chenghan above, then danced amidst the music and singing.

Qi Yan dances gracefully, her body is as light as a swallow, as soft as a boneless body, like a colorful butterfly flying among flowers.

Every time she looked back while spinning, she would smile sweetly at Fengcheng Han above, but every time she found that he was not looking at her.In the middle of the song, the song ends and the dance stops.

"Okay." The Queen Mother smiled and clapped her hands.

The other concubines also clapped their hands and said sincerely, "Princess Qi Yan dances really well."

"Yes! She dances beautifully and gracefully."

"What do you think, Your Majesty?" the Queen Mother looked at Feng Chenghan and asked with a smile.

Qi Yan, who was panting, looked expectantly at the wise and mighty emperor above.

Feng Chenghan glanced at her indifferently, nodded and said, "Very good."

A cold "Very good," made Qi Yan's smile as bright as the peach blossoms in March.

"Thank you for the compliment, your Majesty's cousin." Qi Yan blessed her with a smile.

"Your Majesty, where are my concubine and sister Li Fei?" Lan Bin asked in a sweet voice.

Feng Chenghan also said: "Very good."

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty." Concubine Lan and Concubine Li blessed her with joy.

Qi Yan's smile became far-fetched. The emperor's cousin only praised her. This "very good" was meaningful to her.

The three of them returned to their seats. The Queen Mother glanced at Concubine Li and Concubine Lan displeasedly, but they did not see it.

Mingyue Hall.

Jiang Shuyi sat at the dinner table, looking at the food on the table, her eyebrows furrowed, her hands holding the silver chopsticks trembling, and she finally couldn't bear it and threw the chopsticks on the table.He cursed loudly: "These dog slaves in the imperial kitchen, I am still the emperor's Shuyi! How dare they use such pig food to play tricks on me."

Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival!The Queen Mother held a banquet in the palace, but she could not attend. The dinner served to her in the palace only had one meat dish, and it was only a braised pork dish full of fat.It makes people sick just looking at it, how can it be put into the mouth.

"Your Majesty, calm down." The two maids and a eunuch serving in the palace knelt on the ground.

Now, these are the only three people serving in Jiang Shuyi's palace.

Ever since something happened to the Jiang family, Jiang Shuyi's status in the palace has plummeted.Regardless of whether Mingyue Palace asks for something from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the meals delivered by the imperial kitchen are getting worse every day.

The monthly routine of Mingyue Palace has also been delayed day after day, and the palace servants serving in the palace are also bullied and looked down upon by others outside.

A bird chooses a good tree to roost in. Seeing that there was no way out following Jiang Shuyi, the palace servants of Mingyue Palace applied to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to be transferred to other palaces as errands.

"Calm down your anger. How can I calm down my anger?" Jiang Shuyi roared loudly and threw all the food on the table to the ground.

She really couldn't stand life like this anymore. The people in this palace were all villains who followed the trend and flattered others.Just because her Jiang family fell, they didn't take her seriously and even stepped on her.

These days, when she went to pay her respects to the Queen Mother, the bitches in the harem would always make fun of her father for being greedy for military pay and cheating on his wife.But she could only let them ridicule and tease them, not daring to get angry or refute.Something happened to her father, and the dog slaves in the palace began to neglect her, and even targeted her. She could no longer straighten her back, and she could no longer stand up in front of the concubines in the harem.

The three palace men knelt on the ground without saying a word, and they all had the idea of ​​finding another way out.

However, they planned to wait. If two months later, the people in the House of Internal Affairs and the Imperial Kitchen still treated Jiang Shuyi like this, and the emperor did not come to Mingyue Palace, and if they left again, it would be considered a master-servant relationship.
