Chapter 22
If she wants to eat melon, don’t slap her in the face
Not long after, someone else announced: "Your Majesty has arrived - the Queen has arrived -"
Emperor Longxu walked in with the queen.
He wears a gold and jade crown inlaid with red beads on his head, his eyebrows are tied with two dragons grabbing gold to wipe his forehead, he wears very well-tailored bright yellow arrow sleeves embroidered with Kowloon, and a ginger-colored flower eight-piece Japanese forged row-tasseled jacket.
, with a multicolored silk embroidered ribbon tied around her waist and a long tassel Tai Ming royal ribbon, walking side by side with the queen wearing a phoenix robe of the same color, the same look was gentle and approachable but with dignity.
Everyone stood up and saluted: "I (courtesan's wife/court daughter) see your majesty, the queen, and your highness King Yan. May your majesty be blessed with great blessings and may the queen be blessed with peace and happiness. I wish your highness the king of Yan a thousand years of good fortune."
The emperor had a smile on his face: "No gifts, no gifts."
"It's the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the moon is shining brightly. Today we are gathered here. There is no distinction between monarch and minister. We just eat and drink together."
Everyone said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, and thank you, the Queen."
The emperor and the empress walked to the first two seats and sat down, using the screen as a line. The emperor sat on the men's side, and the empress sat on the female family members' side.
Sure enough, as Qiao Zhi said, after admiring the sweet-scented osmanthus for a while, the queen smiled and said: "The sweet-scented osmanthus is there every year, but it fades every year..."
The queen turned to the emperor and said: "I remember that during the Mid-Autumn Festival last year, I asked all the noble ladies of the aristocratic families to write poems and songs with osmanthus as the theme, especially Mr. Wen's legitimate daughter. I also gave her a piece of green as a reward.
Orchids and pearls are being waved to that little girl."
The queen's eyes briefly looked down: "What's your name...I can't remember it. Are you coming this year?"
Among the noble ladies, a girl wearing a light green smoked sweater stood up. She was slender and her salute posture was regular and elegant: "In response to the Queen's words, I am not talented, but I did have a step forward last year. I am so happy.
no."
The noble lady's head shook slightly, and the hairpin in her hair shook as she walked, immediately attracting the attention of many noble ladies.
The orchid carvings on the rocking steps are lifelike, and combined with the jade craftsmanship, they are exquisite and delicate.
She covered her lips and said with a smile: "My mother also said that this step rocker was a reward from the empress and it was very valuable. It should be kept in a box for safekeeping. But my daughter really liked it, so she wore it."
The queen nodded, her eyes soft: "Since it's the lottery you won, what can't you wear?"
"May I have your name?"
The noble girl replied: "Replying to your Majesty's words, my daughter's single name has the character 'Hui'."
"He is gentle and kind at the end, he is kind and careful, and he has a good name." The queen smiled with a smile on her lips, "Since we compared poems and poems last year——"
She turned around and asked the emperor: "Let's try to get a favor this year. Why?"
When the empress mentioned this, Jiang Sheng, who was sitting below, quickly held down the impatient Qiao Zhi and warned: "Don't make your own decisions."
Qiao Zhi stuck out his tongue, but his eyes were still eager to try: "It's really not the same?"
"If you don't compare with Jiang Xian, you can compare with others."
Jiang Sheng shook his head firmly: "No comparison!"
Just let the boss sister slap others in the face!
How relaxing and comfortable it is for her to sit down and eat melon!
"Okay." Qiao Zhi felt like a frustrated ball after hearing this, curling his lips and saying nothing.
But Qiao Zhi didn't mention it, but he couldn't stop others from mentioning it.
Someone stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I have just learned a new song called "Osmanthus Fragrance". I think it's quite appropriate today."
"Well, in that case, let's compare it to music." The queen asked the emperor, "What do you think, Your Majesty?"
The emperor smiled and said: "I think it's cool."
"Okay." The queen winked at the maid next to her, and the maid brought up a wooden tray, "On this tray is a pair of red gold nine-turn exquisite bracelets with beaded rings given to me by the Queen Mother. Your Majesty and I, and
Everyone here will judge together, and the winner will be the winner."
The emperor took off his jade wrench and said: "Since the queen has said so, I will also participate."
The emperor expressed his opinion, and several high-ranking concubines nearby also contributed money and placed them in the small tray next to them.
The queen then faced Wen Hui: "You also go down and get ready."
Wen Hui raised her lips slightly: "I will do my best."
