The two of them were completely unaware of the palace man's slander. As the noise became louder and louder, they finally arrived at the venue.
As soon as I got close, I was almost dazzled by a brilliantly lit lighthouse. I saw that the lighthouse was eighteen stories high, and the eaves of each floor were hung with exquisite and gorgeous palace lanterns. They were different from the common people's paper lanterns.
Hanging is an octagonal glazed palace lantern with fluttering brocade tassels. The light illuminates the colors on the lamp surface. There are dragons and phoenixes, colorful feathers, Chang'e flying to the moon, Wu Gang cutting osmanthus, and the Jade Rabbit pounding medicine... The brocade is luxurious and very gorgeous.
.
In addition, lanterns of different shapes were hung on the branches of the imperial garden and on the eaves of the pavilions. The lights were brilliant for a while, as bright as day.
At this time, the banquet has not yet started, and the dignitaries who arrived in advance were scattered everywhere to enjoy the lanterns. There was even a talented civil servant who was very enthusiastic about poetry and recited a poem, which made the whole hall applaud.
If you look closely, you can also find that these lanterns are hung with lantern riddles. Many idle officials are wandering around the garden, guessing lantern riddles one after another, which is killing time.
It can be seen that Concubine Su is careful.
The arrival of Cui Weizhen and Ye Zhenzhen attracted the attention of many people. This talented couple not only has outstanding appearance, but also extraordinary bearing. Standing under the colorful and brilliant lights, they did not dim at all, but became more and more dazzling.
It's like an immortal descending to earth.
Ye Zhenzhen noticed that many of the female family members' eyes were on her dress, and she felt very proud, but her face was calm, and she followed Cui Weizhen to greet her acquaintances.
The first one must be His Royal Highness King Wei and Princess Wei.
The last time he was able to go to Qingyun Mansion with General Zhao, His Highness King Wei had to work very hard. Ye Zhenzhen has always been grateful, so this time the salute was especially sincere. King Wei still looked gentle and said with a smile: "
There is no need to be polite, Wei Zhen, you kid. You have been hiding in your house since you returned to Beijing. It is even harder to date you than in the sky. You must have a few drinks with me later."
Cui Weizhen also smiled, and his words showed some familiarity: "You can have a few drinks, but you don't dare to drink more. Your Highness can't embarrass me."
Noticing the way he looked to the side, King Wei suddenly understood and joked: "No wonder I have been staying behind closed doors recently. It turns out that my family is strict. Mrs. Cui, I am not a slut. I will ask Weizhen in the future."
When I go out to have tea, you are not allowed to stop me."
Ye Zhenzhen glanced at Cui Weizhen, then smiled generously and said: "Your Highness, you cannot wrong your wife. I have never placed any restrictions on Wei Zhen's freedom of communication. Do you think so, husband?"
Cui Weizhen raised his eyebrows when her husband called her. He didn't seem to see the threat in her eyes and said calmly: "This is natural."
Princess Wei clearly saw the dispute between the couple's eyebrows. She felt funny and envious at the same time. She said, "Master Cui has been away from Beijing for nearly a year. It is reasonable to spend more time with his family." Then,
She joked again and asked: "By the way, I have something to discuss with Mrs. Cui, and you won't be reluctant to ask Mr. Cui to lend you someone, right?"
Cui Weizhen could probably guess what Princess Wei was going to say. He glanced at Ye Zhenzhen and nodded in agreement. At first, he could still pay attention to Ye Zhenzhen's situation, but soon he was pulled by King Wei to guess riddles with other civil servants.
Writing inscriptions and poems, I had no time to pay attention to anything else for a while.
