Chapter 54
Time flies by.

Jiang Xian always felt that Qin Yanfeng was deliberately avoiding her, and it was difficult to see him under the same roof.

She was busy with things in the restaurant, and didn't pay attention to Qin Yanfeng's weirdness.Jiang Xian was going to find Tang Wanxiang that day, if Cui Nong hadn't reminded her, she would have forgotten that she was going to the palace to attend a palace banquet today.

Jiang Xian secretly said that she was careless.

Princess Jiayun was afraid that Jiang Xian would be too plain, so she specially invited a makeup lady to give Jiang Xian a good look.Jiang Xian didn't like to be ostentatious, so she changed Princess Jiayun's water-red palace attire into a light green brocade haze skirt, and put on a tall cloud bun with a few pearl flowers on her hair, which was just right.

Jiang Xian looked at "Ye Hexuan" in the bronze mirror, her cheeks, which had been pale due to illness for many years, looked gorgeous with rouge.

She caressed the beaded flowers on her bun uneasily, and asked, "Will it be too exaggerated..."

Mother Xu didn't know what was wrong with her, and said, "Young Madam, have you forgotten? When you were not out of the cabinet, your usual attire was more grand than today."

Jiang Xian's heart tightened and she stopped talking.

Because of the complicated clothes, Jiang Xian walked carefully.Slowly reaching the door, he raised his eyes and saw that Qin Yanfeng was already standing beside the carriage.

He was good looking, and he looked plump and handsome in a blue gold brocade shirt casually.

Jiang Xian raised a smile at him, "Are you here?"

Qin Yanfeng stared at her bright face for a moment, then immediately moved away, standing there unmoved, extremely cold.

Jiang Xian who said hello in vain: "..."

Fortunately, Duke Yu and Princess Jiayun arrived at this time.

It is not allowed to bring maid attendants to the palace banquet, Jiang Xian is still not used to it.In front of the Meridian Gate, everyone must walk and cannot ride in sedan chairs in the palace.As soon as he got off the carriage, Jiang Xian was dazzled by the passing nobles.

Originally, she thought she was well dressed, but when she got to the place, she saw that the other ladies were all exquisite.After thinking about it carefully, she understood.

After all, neither of the two marriageable princes in the palace accepted the concubine Yuan.

On the way into the palace, Duke Yu warned in every possible way that the palace is no different from the mansion, there are many rules and no troubles should be caused.Princess Jiayun also whispered to Jiang Xian that there might be something she couldn't take care of at the banquet, and Jiang Xian needed to take care of Qin Yanfeng.

Jiang Xian nodded seriously: "Don't worry, mother, I will take good care of him."

Stepping into the numerous palace gates, there are many guards on the left and right holding long knives.

The sun is slanting to the west, and the red clouds are twinkling.The palaces are clustered in groups, the corridors are back and forth, the eaves and teeth are pecked high, and the carved beams and painted buildings are majestic. The mottled traces of stone bricks make the whole palace look simple and deep.The afterglow of the setting sun lightly falls on the glazed tiles, rolling out golden edges.

The crowd entered the hall one after another and took their seats.

Under the dragon chair, there are desks for the two princes.

The man on the left has a feminine face, with a pair of slanted eyes; the man on the right has long eyebrows and a face like a crown jade.Both of them talked and laughed with a chic and calm demeanor, and they looked like nothing in the pool.

Jiang Xian guessed that the person on the left is the second prince, and the person on the right is the seventh prince.

As the heroine of "The Concubine is the Empress", the Seventh Prince's appearance is really nothing to say.Jiang Xian looked admiringly, and took another look.

Qin Yanfeng glanced at her, and deliberately asked in a stupid tone: "Is he good-looking?"

"It's pretty, isn't he the most beautiful man in the capital? He's not in vain." Realizing that Qin Yanfeng might be unhappy about saying this, Jiang Xian changed the subject and said with a smile, "But I like you more! He's not as good as you .”

Be good! Be good!

Qin Yanfeng was speechless.

Who wants her to coax!
Everyone was seated in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and at three o'clock in the next year, the emperor brought his concubine to arrive late.

This was the first time Jiang Xian saw the aged emperor.

The candles in the palace were as bright as daylight, and Emperor Xianqing was wearing a luxurious bright yellow five-claw dragon robe, and sat tremblingly on the chair that symbolized supreme power.Compared with his old age, the concubines under the seat are charming, each with its own merits.

Princess Jiayun told Jiang Xian in a low voice, "The lady on the left wearing the pink lotus palace dress is the most favored Concubine Shu today, and the boy sitting in her arms is the Ninth Prince. The one on the right is Concubine Duan, her father He is a mighty general with great military exploits. Down in order, they are the Seventh Prince's birth mother Liang Concubine, Yu Concubine, Li Concubine..."

Jiang Xian made a comparison in her heart, and that Concubine Shu was indeed the most beautiful woman in the Six Palaces.As Concubine Liang is the oldest, her appearance is not outstanding.

But no matter which one, it is more than enough to match that old man.

Qin Yanfeng sat on Jiang Xian's left, she turned her head and stared at the emperor in a daze, which was very rude.Afraid of getting caught in the fire, Qin Yanfeng leaned forward a little to hide her prying eyes on the emperor's concubines.

Jiang Xian said "Hey", "Qin Yanfeng, you blocked me."

Qin Yan didn't say anything, "What are you looking at?"

Seeing that no one noticed, Jiang Xian complained to Qin Yanfeng in a low voice: "The emperor is only in his 60s? Why does he look so old? But these concubines are so beautiful..."

In Qin Yanfeng's heart, she was bold and presumptuous.

"Which empress do you think is prettier? I think Concubine Shu... Mmmmm!"

Qin Yanfeng raised his hand and stuffed a piece of pastry into Jiang Xian's mouth.

Jiang Xian was almost choked, and it took her a long time to swallow that big piece of cake.However, Princess Jiayun saw this scene, and was about to reprimand Qin Yanfeng, when the concubine Liang asked softly, "Why didn't Mrs. Qin come today?"

When Duke Yu heard this, he got up quickly and replied, "My mother, my mother is not feeling well, and she is recuperating at home."

"It's a pity." Concubine Liang sighed softly, "I still want to talk to her."

Jiang Xian was a little surprised.

Mrs. Qin has a good relationship with Concubine Liang?The two are not the same age.

Fortunately, Princess Jiayun saw her doubts and took the initiative to explain.

The old lady was close friends with the deceased queen and concubine Jing, and they had a very good relationship.After the two empresses passed away, the old lady came to the palace to express her condolences, and got to know the concubine Liang who was still a little maid at that time.Concubine Liang came in after the death of Concubine Jing, and the reason why she was favored so quickly was that she had served two empresses.

As for whether the old lady likes or dislikes Concubine Liang, she is probably like a fish who knows how warm the water is.
