About Me Than the Heroine Su

Chapter 57 - feast



The emperor really played chess with Bai Chu for an hour. He was especially good at strategy. This kind of chess with simple rules, before the first game was played, he had already figured out the routine. Bai Chu tried his best to think about five moves. Minutes, I finally saved face and did not lose to a beginner.

In the end, it became more and more difficult, and after barely finishing three rounds, she gave up and didn’t want to play.

“Is it almost time?” She turned her head to look at the movement on the other side, and sighed softly, pretending to be regretful, “The court lady is worried that the Empress will send someone to announce the start of the dinner, and I’m afraid I won’t be able to accompany Your Majesty. If you stay here for a long time, you can only go outside and wait for orders.”

The emperor raised his eyes and looked over, and said with a half-smile, “I’m not here, do you think the banquet is over?”

Bai Chu was speechless for a while, his eyes turned, and he smiled and said: “The banquet can’t be held, but this is a good thing to welcome the holy car, but the court lady can’t be absent. Otherwise, if I turn back on a crime, how can I bear it?”

The emperor laughed twice, got up slowly, put his hands behind his back, and said with a smile: “Okay, don’t make it difficult for you to coax me with a few words, just leave, anyway, I won two games in three games, and I still won. “

Bai Chu stared blankly at the back of him walking away, unable to believe that the childish and stingy man in front of him was actually the majestic king just now.

Who is pretending?

Seeing that the people in the pavilion finally left, Shuangxi trotted to Bai Chu’s side, and asked anxiously, “Young madam, who is this?”

Bai Chu was suffocating and replied angrily: “Who do you think is a man who can walk around in the harem and run around like a man?”

Shuangxi’s eyes widened: “Could it be…Which prince is he?”

The emperor also said to her that he was like a figure in the sky, aloof and unattainable, who would have thought that he could run into each other when he was out and about? Shuangxi didn’t even dare to think about it.

According to her courage, if she knew, she would be in a state of fright and fear all day long.

Bai Chu Yang unfolded the handkerchief and covered it on the stone table, and by the way put the small jar of mouth fat into his cuff. She doesn’t know how to embroider. On the plain white handkerchief, there is only a red lotus embroidered by the maids. The petals are coquettish and flaming, and it is very beautiful, but it is not representative. No matter who sees it, it cannot be linked to anyone.

“Okay,” she clapped her hands, “let’s go back, lest the eldest princess send someone to find me.”

Mother Fang was originally sent by the eldest princess to follow her, but Bai Chu didn’t like being restrained by her supervision, so she tried to make her notice the sisters Shen Fu and Shen Rong who were active in the circle of noble ladies. It was brought by the eldest princess. Naturally, Madam Fang couldn’t let the reputation of the eldest princess be damaged. With a cold expression, she quickly followed.

Speaking of this, Shuangxi hurriedly said: “By the way, young lady, just now the slave saw Fang maid coming in this direction, but luckily the slave hid quickly, seeing her turn the road and go in the other direction, but didn’t find it. slave.”

“Don’t worry about her, let’s go directly to Kunning Palace to see the eldest princess.”

After Bai Chu and Shuangxi arrived at the Kunning Palace, they heard that the empress was unwell, so they went back to the inner room to rest for about half an hour. When the hour was over, they led the female relatives to the Hall of Supreme Harmony to attend the state banquet on the first day of the year. .

Sure enough, the eldest princess knew that Fang Momo had lost her, and there was a bit of blame in her words, and she asked where she went?

Bai Chu only said that it was the first time for him to come to the palace, and he got lost by accident. He didn’t dare to run around for fear of breaking the rules of the palace, so he stayed there for a while, and then slowly walked out until he asked the passing palace servants.

The eldest princess didn’t say whether she believed it or not. Seeing her coming back safely, she didn’t care, but Shen Fu and Shen Rong kept her a little distracted, especially Shen Fu, after all, she was the one I was arguing about going to the palace, and I was afraid that something would happen and I would turn around and cause trouble.

She simply lost Bai Chu, but she looked closely at Sister Shen Fu and Shen Rong. When the two sisters came back, Shen Fu’s face was a little unsightly, and Shen Rong lowered her head and squeezed tightly The lips also revealed a bit of reluctance.

Bai Chu watched what Mother Fang whispered in the ear of the eldest princess, then respectfully folded her hands in front of her lower abdomen, took two steps back respectfully, and stood behind the eldest princess.

Before she could think about it, the empress put on a solemn and dignified phoenix robe, and walked out of the inner room, and supported her by her side… Isn’t this the princess of Roujia?

Bai Chu was a little surprised, and subconsciously turned her head to look in Bai Yinhua’s direction, but her face was very calm, with a gentle and calm smile on her face, as if it was expected.

What do you think…it seems a little wrong?

A moment later, the Queen Mother officially started to drive. Except for her, who had the phoenix, the others could only queue up neatly, following her mightily, slowly heading towards the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

The grandeur and solemnity of the Yuanri Great Court Meeting in the morning had not faded. As soon as everyone entered the Taiji Hall, they found their seats and sat down. They did not dare to make any other sound. The palace was so huge that it was impossible to even say a word. Hearing the echo, there was only the rustling of walking in an instant.

Empress Dowager is indeed very fond of Princess Roujia, and she smiled and wanted to put an extra chair by her side, but Princess Roujia obediently refused, the occasion was solemn, and the ceremony could not be ignored.

The royal family and the civil and military officials came together. The seats for the state banquet have been spread from the inside of the hall to the square outside the hall. At this time, the cold wind is blowing, and the people sitting outside will suffer. Can you eat hot dishes? They also said that the key is that even wine may not necessarily remove the coldness from the body.

Bai Chu thought: According to Bai Zheng’s official position, Zhang Shi and Bai Yinhua must only be outside the palace.

With the sound of a clear bell, the bell, drum and chime are played simultaneously, and then the pan flute, konghou, zheng, se, etc. are added. The song “Qingyan of Kyushu” seems to be the most peaceful and beautiful in the world. The side of the man is displayed in front of everyone, the government is harmonious with people, and Haiyan Heqing is clear.

As usual, the emperor took the lead in raising his glass to salute, and then a group of ministers competed to toast to express their blessings and praise, although the over and over again were nothing more than “Your Majesty’s Holy Ming”, “With Your Majesty, Tianli is now prosperous”, “The ministers are willing to Dedicating everything to His Majesty and Tian Li”, etc., can be expressed in dozens of different ways by this group of people with full political literacy and skills. Bai Chu is an eye-opener.

Bai Chu originally regarded himself as a little transparent, until the emperor inadvertently mentioned her when he greeted the eldest princess in a friendly way. Bai Chu could only get up and go out to thank him, and secretly clenched his teeth and slandered him over and over again in his heart.

Sure enough, she is an extremely careful person, and she definitely saw her jokes on purpose.

Fortunately, they were a little far from the throne, and Shuangxi didn’t recognize that this was the man who spent an hour with her master in the imperial garden. His round eyes stared straight at Bai Chu, full of worry, she knew best. Bai Chu’s sluggish temperament said that she was learning court etiquette with Mama Fang, and she intervened in Shen Fu and Shen Rong halfway, so she gave up halfway, so she was very worried, for fear that there was something wrong with her rules and angered her. Angry on the holy.

The emperor looked at the way she lowered her eyebrows beside the eldest princess, which was not at all like the boldness and agility she had been in front of him before.

But even if he looked up, he could only see the dark back of his head, and he knew that she might not know how to scold him at this moment.

She smiled, no longer embarrassed, and let her go down when she called.

Bai Chu returned to her position without any risk, and felt that the eyes on her suddenly increased, with different emotions and complicated meanings… She took a sip of wine indifferently and waited for the emperor’s next move. Seconds focused on a few princes, and no one cared about her.

Everything was going on in an orderly manner, Bai Chu stared at the dishes and snacks on his table without even looking to the side; Shen Fu rolled her eyes a few times, remembering Mother Fang’s advice, Anyway, she didn’t make it too obvious; Shen Rong held the wine glass in her right hand, lowered her head in a daze, looked at Hu Shi’s heart beside her, and touched her quietly, her voice was inaudible: “Look at what place this is. If something goes wrong, let’s not talk about you, our family will have to pay up, Rong’er, be safe!”

The warning in the words came out.

Shen Rong spent an afternoon, except that she really felt that these noble ladies in Beijing really didn’t look down on her, she had nothing else to gain, and her heart was sour and unwilling.

She was used to pretending to be well-behaved, so she suppressed her irritability and raised a docile smile: “I know mother.” She covered her stomach with a pale face, “Mother, I’m not feeling well…”

Hu Shi immediately became worried: “What’s wrong?”

“Xu Shi just caught a cold, and her stomach hurts badly…” Shen Rong bit her lip, “Mother, can I go out to change?”

Hu Shi frowned: “Mother will accompany you.”

“Mother,” Shen Rong took her hand, “if the eldest princess asks, please tell me, besides,” she hesitated and looked at Shen Fu next to her, “the elder sister is still here.”

Shen Fu has always been discreet in her words and actions. The last time she forced the eldest princess to bring her into the palace made Hu Shi angry for a long time, and she became even more worried about her.

After a long while, Hu said hesitantly, “Then be careful on the road, and have a few more people by your side, just in case there are any accidents.”

“Don’t worry, I know.” Shen Rong’s face was weak, she bowed her body, carefully left the palace, and walked outside, only to find that the sky was completely dark, and the night wind was even more icy and biting, she wrapped her body tightly. The cloak was brought to the dressing and resting place by the maid who led the way.

The people in the hall didn’t even notice that an insignificant person like Shen Rong had left, and they were still singing and dancing peacefully.

Everyone’s face is beaming, full of smiles, pushing the cup for a change, laughing and laughing.

Until King An, who had been silent all the time, suddenly stood up with a glass of wine, the atmosphere in the hall was stagnant, and everyone fell silent in unison, and tacitly moved their gazes to the center of the hall.

“I see Your Majesty, and I sincerely wish Your Majesty a happy and prosperous New Year, all the best, the world is clean, and the people’s residences are happy.”

The emperor smiled warmly and said, “Sheng’er has a heart, I must drink this glass of wine.”

Bai Chu looked at the male protagonist kneeling in the hall thoughtfully, raised his eyes and looked in Bai Yinhua’s direction, only to find that she and Bai Shi were sitting right in front of the hall door. He sat in the temple.

Prince An was so arrogant and domineering when he was outside, and he was arrogant and arrogant towards the emperor, so he exchanged a few words before listening to him say: “Speaking of which, the minister has an unkind request, which coincides with the fact that today is the middle of the year. It’s a rare good day, so I dared to mention it to you.”

Others have to be careful to ask “Should I say it or not”, but he “I dared to mention it”.

Anyway, whether you like it or not, I’m going to say it.

Bai Chu didn’t feel the male protagonist’s arrogant and arrogant aura next to him, and looked him up and down with surprised eyes:

This is a warrior. Are you really afraid that the careful emperor will come back to you and trouble you?

“I have been thanked for your care by Your Majesty for many years, and I am grateful and guilty. After the year, I have reached the age of weak crown.

“I lost my parents when I was young. Your Majesty is the only close relative to me, an uncle who is as gracious as a mountain. I can’t express my admiration for you.”

“If Your Majesty does not dislike the mediocrity of your ministers, I would like to share your worries and solve problems for you and repay your hard work and kindness for many years. I only ask that you reward your ministers for one or two positions, not only for your service, but also to comfort your father and mother’s spirit in heaven, that your son grows up. Now, under your care, you won’t be an incompetent person who loses their face!”
