Chapter 188 The light of the sword and the shadow of the sword
All the people sitting in the next head stood up: "Yes, the Queen Mother."
The Empress Dowager stood up and took people to the palace where the palace banquet was tonight, and ignored Feng Jing behind her.
Feng Jing was too lazy to pretend to be with Empress Dowager Gao, and followed everyone slowly and walked out.
When the eldest wife of the Tang family and the second wife of the Tang family saw Feng Jing, they nodded at her respectfully.
Feng Jing also nodded slightly. Shuangshuang didn't speak, but each other's intentions were achieved.
Tonight's palace banquet will be held in the Jingyang Hall in the palace. The Jingyang Hall is large and accommodates many people.
When Feng Jing and others arrived, many people had already come to the hall, all of whom were middle-aged and young talents in the court, three groups of five people gathered together to talk.
King Qin, King Kang, King Jin, Prince An, Prince Qing and others have arrived. Even the Ming King, who was banned by His Majesty, came tonight.
However, the face of Ming Wang was not very good from beginning to end.
This time he came out and found that the ministers who had been following him were not chasing him as diligently as before. Although they were still smiling, they were talking to him.
But they all speak official words, and they no longer feel as heart-to-heart as they used to be.
The Ming King Pei Zhan knew very well that these ministers were afraid that they had been punished by his father for a while and gave up on him.
When Pei Zhan thought of this, he hated Pei Lin and Feng Jing.
So when Feng Jing came over, his eyes were cut into Feng Jing's body like a knife.
Feng Jing didn't seem to see it, so she took the people in with her complacently.
In the hall, a group of young talents all paid homage to the Queen Mother.
The Empress Dowager was in a very unhappy mood because of Feng Jing's affairs, and when she saw Pei Lin, she felt even worse.
Could this couple be her nemesis?
The Empress Dowager sneered in her heart. She could get from a small concubine in the harem of the late emperor to the position of Empress Dowager. Are she still afraid that these two bitches would wait for her?
The Queen Mother calmed down her unhappiness and a loving smile appeared on her face: "Get up, don't be restrained, it's better to be casual."
After she finished speaking, she took people to the front of the hall, and the eunuch behind her voice rang out at the right time: "Your Majesty is here."
Except for the Queen Mother, everyone else walked towards the gate of the hall. When the emperor came in, everyone knelt down to greet him: "I have seen Your Majesty."
Emperor Xiaoren looked down at the ministers who were kneeling all over the ground from a high place. Seeing them kneeling on the ground and looking cautious, he felt instantly happy.
This feels so good. It’s worth it. He was doing low and low in his early years and tried his best to get the throne. The feeling above ten thousand people is really exciting.
However, when Emperor Xiaoren's eyes swept to Pei Lin, his black pupils sank, and a resentment surged in the peaks of his eyes.
This person must be removed, otherwise his throne would be unstable. Every time he saw him, he would think of the days when he followed his father in his early years and was like a dog.
What's more, before his death, the late emperor left his last words in front of the four ministers, if he died, Pei Lin succeeded to the throne.
Although all the four people are in his hands now, it is impossible for them to express the last emperor's wishes for Pei Lin, he is still worried when he sees Pei Lin.
Emperor Xiaoren thought while speaking: "Get up."
After he finished speaking, he walked into the hall first. When he walked to Empress Dowager Gao, he spoke with a faint expression: "My son has seen his mother."
Empress Dowager Gao saw him and knew that he was still angry with what she had done before.
Empress Dowager Gao didn't want to be too fond of his son, and did not care about his attitude, and spoke kindly: "The emperor is here, and the banquet is almost ready to begin."
"Let's get started."
The palace banquet began soon.
Pei Lin and Feng Jing, as King Jin and Princess of Jin, naturally had their seats in front, and the seats of King Ming, King Qin, King Kang, King Xiaolu, King An, Prince Qing, and others were also very front.
The head of the hall, the old emperor waited until everyone sat down, and looked at the head of the Great Emperor with a loving look on his face and said.
"The main purpose of holding a palace banquet today is to point out a concubine to the King of Jin. As a hero of the Great Yan, the King of Jin married the wrong princess by mistake. I was uneasy and specially asked the Queen Mother to prepare for it.
At the evening palace banquet, choose a concubine who suits his wishes for the King of Jin."
Although the old emperor didn't say anything about Feng Jing, the meaning in his words was very unfriendly, and many people in the hall looked at Feng Jing.
Feng Jing seemed to not understand, and looked at the old emperor in front of her with a smile.
That look made the old emperor very angry.
Beside Feng Jing, Pei Lin stood up at the right time: "I thank Your Majesty for your kindness, but the princess is very consistent with my wishes. If there is no princess, my king's poison will not be cured. I will let you recognize him before thanking Your Majesty.
The matter of the princess.”
This sentence seems ordinary, but it is actually full of swords and swords. No one in the hall is fool. When he hears it, he understands that Pei Lin's words point directly to the old emperor asking him to recognize Feng Jing.
After hearing Pei Lin's words, Emperor Xiaoren looked indescribable in his eyes, but his face was filled with a smile, but no matter how he looked at this smile, he felt a little bit smiling.
"Although the Princess of Jin has made contributions to saving you, it has been impaired by pregnancy before marriage. However, if you work hard to protect her, I cannot do such a thing as breaking up the marriage. However, the Prince of Jin should still have a noble character.
Someone came to preside over the affairs of the royal palace."
This is a short statement that Feng Jing is not good at being the princess of Jin and is not worthy of being outside to entertain guests.
Pei Lin spoke again: "I thank Your Majesty for your kindness, but the princess was framed at the beginning and was wrong. This cannot be said that she has bad moral character, but she can only say that she is not as scheming as others and has been tricked by evil people. As for my King of Jin's Mansion
The princess can still handle the matter. Your Majesty said that the concubine entered the mansion, and I am very grateful. However, the concubine should look like a concubine. My Jin Prince's Mansion will not promote the concubine to interfere in the matter of the royal palace."
This directly refuted His Majesty's suggestion, and the old emperor's face became gloomy.
In the hall, it was as quiet as a place without a man, and no one dared to speak.
In the end, the old emperor calmed down and said, "Okay, these are the family affairs of your King of Jin's Mansion. I haven't grown my hands to reach your family affairs."
After the old emperor finished speaking, he spoke: "Let the palace banquet begin."
The atmosphere in the hall finally eased a little. King Kang of Qin and others took the lead in to toasting the old emperor. King Pei Zhan of Ming became a little scared due to the recent incidents.
The old emperor was very angry when he saw him like this.
But thinking that this son is useful, he didn't say anything to him anymore.
After drinking with his son, the old emperor issued an order to let the ladies from the court come forward to perform their talents, which was actually what the princes saw.
The ladies from all families on the court wanted to perform better, which made King Ming, King Qin, King Kang and others like him, but were afraid that they would be too good, so they were chosen as their concubine by King Jin Pei Lin.
This made them very confused, but in the end they wanted to marry a prince had the upper hand.
Everyone who performs has shown their own abilities.
For a time, the hall was filled with flowers, singing and dancing, and it was very lively.
