Dreaming back to the Qing Dynasty: Die Luo Chuchen

Chapter 211 Meal
The emperor, who was being surrounded by several concubines and undressed to wash their hands, turned his head and glanced this way, then turned back without saying anything.Concubine Hui happened to be telling him the joke just now, the emperor listened intently, with a slight smile on his lips.

Seeing this situation, Concubine Tong had an idea in her mind, she held my hand and persuaded: "Look, it's already noon, how can I let you go back hungry, why don't you just have dinner with us here, after we're done , I will let Xiao Shunzi send you out of the palace."

Dining with a group of distinguished royal concubines, and the emperor... Just thinking about it like this makes my scalp a little numb, I looked over there in embarrassment, and hesitated for a while.Concubine Tong smiled and said: "Could it be possible that our royal food is not as good as Zhang's? Well, it's settled like this."

Concubine Tong Gui has already talked about this, so I have no choice but to accept it no matter how much I have an opinion in my heart. "yes."

Dining with the empresses and concubines is by no means as casual as at home. Just seeing a huge group of people serving this posture is enough to make me breathless.There was a table full of delicacies. When I sat down, Concubine Tong was naturally next to the emperor. I wanted to wait for them to take their seats one by one, and then I sat down by myself, but unexpectedly, Concubine Tong pulled me to her side. just sit down.Concubine Hui was greatly surprised by this move, she enthusiastically pressed me on the seat, moved to the seat next to me and sat down, after that, a pair of phoenix eyes kept turning around me, as if guessing the intention of the imperial concubine.

When eating, the emperor was naturally served by someone, Concubine Tong Guifei was also helping the emperor with food, and the other concubines were served by maids of honor.Only my side is deserted, sitting on a cold bench.Although I know that I am different from them, I still feel a little uncomfortable.I thought it was a family banquet, and everyone could eat whatever they wanted, but when the emperor came, it was so ostentatious that I sat there not daring to put down my chopsticks, so I had to hold the teacup and drink tea in sips.

The emperor looked this way and asked strangely, "Mulan, why don't you move your chopsticks?"

Concubine Hui is a smart person, and she can see why I'm cautious at a glance. "It's probably because I'm not used to eating with us. Xiao Wei." She asked a palace maid to take care of my meal.We all ate together again.They chattered casually about homework, and it was inconvenient for me to interrupt, so I listened to them with my ears upright, while bowing my head to eat.The emperor's eyes swept over me several times intentionally or unintentionally, which made me unable to eat, and I didn't even taste the food.Concubine Hui joked: "Look at Mulan, she didn't even dare to speak when the emperor came. The emperor is not a tiger, so he can eat you?"

Concubine Tong and the others giggled.

My face turned red suddenly, Concubine Hui said again: "Mulan, don't bother eating, tell us a few jokes."

At the instigation of Concubine Hui, everyone looked up at me, what should I say?His mind was spinning rapidly, and he was racking his brains to scrape the ink in his stomach.So, with great difficulty, I came up with a few funny cross talk jokes to tell them, and it really made them laugh. Those are all well-known jokes, I can’t laugh anymore, and now I have to laugh with them a few times, It should be the scene.
