The queen is fierce and cute

Chapter 116
The hall, which was still a little noisy at first, became quiet in an instant because of the emperor's arrival.

The moment the emperor stepped in from outside the hall, there was another commotion, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Accompanied by the sound, everyone knelt down on the ground, the emperor walked forward slowly, sat down at the first place, looked around the hall, and then said, "Freedom of courtesy."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The voice was still in order, and everyone stood up and took their seats one after another.

The arrival of the emperor heralded the beginning of the New Year's Eve palace banquet. The sound of singing and dancing sounded, and the palace people brought food and placed it in front of everyone's table.

Su Jing'an observed carefully that the food at Li Zhaoyi's table was different from the others, it must have been specially prepared in consideration of her pregnancy.

Kneeling on one knee, Su Jing'an carefully inspected every dish, even the utensils for eating.

She was so careful, which made Li Zhaoyi's heart ache.

After she became pregnant, it wasn't that no one volunteered to recommend herself, wanting to be the eldest maid by her side.

She is Zhaoyi now, but there is only Jing An, a maid in charge, by her side, so it is hard to guarantee that others will not have other thoughts.

But she never agreed. She felt that Jing An alone was enough. Compared with other people, she was more careful and sincere.

If she really helped another big palace lady, she would be on an equal footing with Jing An, and it might not be as peaceful as it is now.

She didn't tell Jing An about these things, it's not a big deal after all.

"Your Majesty, I have tried all the servants. The taste of this dish is not bad. I think you will like this one. And this one. If you feel tired, you can take a bite to relieve your tiredness."

Su Jing'an tried the dishes herself. She knew Li Zhaoyi's appetite very well. She knew exactly which dish was good and whether Li Zhaoyi liked it or not. She even rearranged it according to Li Zhaoyi's preferences for her convenience.

"Thanks for your hard work." Li Zhaoyi responded with a smile, picked up the chopsticks, and tasted the dishes Jing An said, and sure enough, she liked them.

"Take these two dishes to Li Zhaoyi, this one to the imperial concubine, and this one to Mrs. Yao."

At the first place, the emperor pointed to the few dishes he had just tasted, and ordered Fu Lu, Fu Lu quickly responded, and sent the dishes down according to the emperor's instructions.

After receiving the reward, Concubine Tian Gui, Mrs. Yao and Li Zhaoyi stood up to thank each other.

Concubine Tian Gui's makeup was exquisite, with a smile on her face, as if the one with a bad complexion in the morning and the bruises under her eyes was not her at all.

She is good at drinking, and she toasted the emperor with a lot of compliments, which made the emperor very happy.

In contrast, Mrs. Yao was much simpler, said a few words of congratulations, and then drank the wine in the glass.

The emperor was not unhappy about this, he knew that Mrs. Yao had always had such a temper.

When Li Zhaoyi arrived, she was pregnant and not suitable for drinking, so she substituted water for wine and said some auspicious words.

After all, it was the emperor's favorite concubine recently. After listening to her, the emperor smiled and drank the wine in the glass.

Sitting down again, Jing An had already checked the food. Li Zhaoyi tasted a few mouthfuls, then put it aside, and continued to eat the previous dish.

There was a burst of singing and dancing, everyone pushed cups and changed cups, and the atmosphere in the hall gradually became lively. When the time approached, the emperor gave an order, and the chief eunuch, Fu Lu, stood at the head with the imperial edict in both hands.

The hall was quiet again, only Fu Lu's voice kept coming.

"By God's blessing, the emperor's edict said: It's New Year's Eve, I'm so relieved... Mrs. Yao... was promoted to noble concubine, Li Zhaoyi was promoted to concubine Li, Mu Xiurong was promoted to Zhaorong... Yun Shunrong was promoted to Jieyu... ...this!"

　Generally, the canonized imperial decree has to say a lot, so I will replace it with an ellipsis, and everyone can make up their own brains.
