The banquets of the Wei Dynasty have always been extravagant, and in recent years, Emperor Wei Chang has become even more fond of new and interesting things. I saw that the popular Qingshui wine glass had been placed next to the guest table.
The emperor and the princes and queens had not yet arrived, and all the ministers and female family members came to the banquet to prepare for the banquet. Princess Kang and Kang Yanning followed the little eunuch who led the way to find King Kang's seat. King Kang smiled and waved, "Your Majesty, have mercy on us, and let the whole family gather together.
This banquet allowed Yan Ning to experience the novelties of the people."
Kang Yanning looked at the flowing glass beside her, and she knew what it was. The third prince's sister, the eldest princess, had always been arty, but she held some tea parties and flower appreciation parties in a few days. As the third prince's concubine, Kang Yanning had to follow her.
Participate. In her previous life, in order to integrate into the circle of noble ladies in Kyoto, she carefully studied antiphons and rhymed poetry, but she has little interest in these things in this life.
She sat behind Princess Kang and looked at the door. She was looking forward to it. She wondered...if she could see...here today! Her eyes lit up and she looked straight into the distance. She saw a man wearing a goose-yellow shirt and a beautiful face.
The stunningly beautiful woman with bright eyes and white teeth followed behind her mother. The woman seemed to be aware of her sight. Looking back from a distance, she saw Kang Yanning smiling at her, as if to show her goodwill. She was stunned for a moment, then raised her lips slightly and nodded to show friendship.
.
Kang Yanning was secretly happy that she had met her good sister in advance in this life - Ye Feiwei. Ye Feiwei was the granddaughter of the imperial concubine. In her previous life, Kang Yanning had a bad reputation. When she married the third prince, there were always rumors that King Kang used his military power to force her to marry her.
His Majesty.
At that time, Kang Yanning sneered at this statement. The Holy Emperor acted arbitrarily and the Third Prince had great ambitions. How could her father force him to do so? They naturally fell in love with Prince Kang when they got married.
Kang Yanning didn't bother to explain, the rumors became more and more intense, and the eldest princess looked at her with more and more dissatisfaction. Everyone knew that Kang Yanning was not good at writing. At several banquets, the eldest princess wanted to humiliate Kang Yanning by writing poems, but Ye Feiwei helped her cover it up. Kang Yanning
There were many enemies in Kyoto, and when King Kang and his family returned to Yucheng, they had no relatives and friends, so her relationship with Ye Feiwei gradually became closer.
Ye Feiwei is an excellent friend. She has a gentle temperament and is knowledgeable and well-informed. Kang Yanning is taken care of every time she plays with her. Ye Feiwei is a ray of light in her dim life in Kyoto.
After returning from this life, she was still thinking about how sad Ye Feiwei in her previous life would be if she knew about her death. Kang Yanning was filled with joy to meet her in advance.
"The Holy One has arrived." Kang Yanning followed the others and stood up, kneeling and saluting.
Emperor Wei Chang seemed to be in a very good mood today, with a smile on his face and said, "All my dear friends, please rise." He stood at the top and looked at the four kings who had bowed their heads. He was very at ease. "Today is a family banquet to welcome the heroes of the Wei Dynasty."
, dear friends, there is no need to be too polite."
The four kings stood up again to express their gratitude. He waved his hands and let the ministers do what they wanted. After chatting for a while, he said to Concubine Shu sitting below, "Let's have a banquet."
The late empress passed away many years ago, and the harem was managed by Concubine Shu. Today, the Holy Emperor also gave Concubine Shu a great deal of honor by allowing her to hold a banquet.
Kang Yanning got up with King Kang. The moment the Lord entered the palace, he also brought with him the princes and concubines.
As soon as she raised her head, she saw the person she hated most at the front of the crowd, the third prince Wei Jiaxiao. Wei Jiaxiao was the popular man in front of the Holy Emperor. He followed the Holy Emperor closely, and his position was even higher than that of the prince. His face was full of youth, and he was high-spirited and chatting with the ministers.
He listened slightly from time to time, and nodded appreciatively from time to time, vaguely carrying the pride of a superior.
Kang Yanning only glanced at it and then looked away. Her anger surged uncontrollably, and the enemy she thought about day and night was right in front of her. But at this time, she had nothing to rely on and could not take revenge at all. She died.
Biting her lower lip, she kept taking deep breaths, trying to calm down her violently beating heart while letting out the killing intent.
Suddenly a pleasant voice sounded right in front of her, "Is King Kang still used to it after returning to Kyoto?"
"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. I have been in Kyoto since I was a child, so I am not used to it. But Your Highness, your health has been better since you returned to Kyoto?"
Kang Yanning raised her head and saw that the prince was chatting with Prince Kang, and her eyes made contact with her. She quickly saluted the prince and said hello. The prince shouted, put his fist to his mouth and coughed twice, "This body has always been like this, it doesn't matter where I am."
"
Just as King Kang was about to say a few words of relief, he heard the eunuch beside the imperial concubine announce the decree: "Let the banquet begin..."
The prince nodded to King Kang and said no more, then turned back.
After such an interruption, Kang Yanning's expression was no longer tense and relaxed. She glanced at the third prince again. She would avenge this sooner or later, so she was not in a hurry.
Ye Feiwei followed Mrs. Ye and sat down. She looked at the girl who had just made good friends with her, and felt a vague feeling in her heart. She pulled her mother's sleeves and asked in a low voice, "Mother, sit in the third seat from the front of the guest table."
Which prince is he from?"
Mrs. Ye glanced at him and replied, "It's King Kang from the northwest."
The girl sitting behind King Kang must be Kang Yanning. Her inner hunch was confirmed. She looked at Kang Yanning briefly, then withdrew her gaze and said nothing.
Kang Yanning didn't want to cause trouble today, so she ate some food at the banquet obediently. The Wei Dynasty was rich in products, and Concubine Shu worked hard to perform well at this banquet. Today's banquet was different from the usual court food.
Don't like to eat.
I saw that all the small dishes on the table were exquisite and cute. Whether it was the rabbit made with walnuts and cheese, or the milk puff pastry decorated with cherries, they all looked very delicate, and they melted in your mouth and left a fragrant aroma on your lips and teeth.
It is useless to think too much. Kang Yanning was savoring the snacks carefully when he heard Concubine Shu say, "Your Majesty, today is a family banquet specially held by your Majesty for the courtiers. I also went to the folk to collect some novelties and drank wine in the winding river. I want to add to Your Majesty's kindness."
Add color."
"Oh?" Shengshang became interested. "Please tell me carefully."
Concubine Shu pointed to the gold-threaded wood river in front of her, "I specially ordered people to build this. A channel was opened on the fine golden-threaded wood. Your Majesty, place a wine glass on the upper stream. When the wine glass goes down the river, where will it stop?"
In front of me, whoever takes the cup will compose poems to cheer for us and pray for the great Wei Dynasty."
"Wonderful!" he exclaimed, "Wonderful." He patted Concubine Shu's hand again and praised, "My dear concubine, you are very thoughtful. This wedding banquet was held very much to my liking." Concubine Shu was in high spirits after hearing the praise from the Holy Master.
, a smile touched the corners of his eyes, and even the third prince's face became a little lighter.
The Holy One's favorite concubine, Yi Fei, was noncommittal. This mother and son actually liked to play with these bells and whistles. But they would not shame the Holy One at this time, so they coquettishly said, "Sister Shu Fei is such a good idea. Then my sister will add some bonus."
He ordered the maid to bring an emerald inlaid with gold and jade Ruyi, "Why don't we invite the female relatives of all the ministers to participate today, so that everyone can have fun together. The one who comes out on top will be rewarded."
The Holy Spirit was beaming with joy today and agreed with a wave of his hand.
Kang Yanning raised her eyebrows. She didn't expect that there would be another talent show today. Concubine Yi is this year's favorite concubine, and Concubine Shu is the concubine. Concubine Yi and Concubine Shu have always been at odds with each other. I wonder who will do this today.
Who makes the wedding dress?
The emperor replaced the eunuch and brought a gold cup. "Since everything has been added, I can't miss it." He took the gold cup to the upper reaches of the Jinsimu River and threw the gold cup into it. "Let's start from here."
Concubine Shu replaced the drummer and beat the drums lightly. The golden cup slowly went down the river with the drums, slowly passed the prince and stopped in front of the third prince. The third prince smiled helplessly and stood up, "It's God's will.
I will come there to help my father, who is a wise king through the ages, and wish my father an eternal kingdom." After saying this, he recited a poem, praising this prosperous age.
"Okay! The third prince has great literary talent and should be rewarded!"
Kang Yanning understood that this was the stage that Concubine Shu had set up for her son. She watched the Holy Lord praise the third prince, and then watched the prince weakly leaning on the chair, looking at them, and occasionally coughing twice.
. His eyes were neither sad nor happy, as if the joy in front of him had nothing to do with him.
Kang Yanning knew that the prince was in an embarrassing position. The late empress had passed away. Although the emperor showed pity to him, no one made the final decision for him. He might have become very used to this scene.
As the drums sounded, the golden cup still walked slowly in the Jinsimu River, and slowly stopped beside the sixth prince. The sixth prince was the youngest son of Concubine Yi, and the golden cup stopped at the sixth prince. Concubine Yi's eyes
It was obviously brighter.
The Sixth Prince has not been interested in history books since he was a child, and he has never read articles. With Concubine Yi as his beloved concubine, he rarely goes to the study room to attend classes. He scratched his head and could only say a few sentences before making up.
After going down, there was the third prince Zhuyu in front of him, and the Holy Emperor also frowned. But today, after all, the courtiers were there, so he could only nod slightly and let the sixth prince go without making any comments.
The golden cup went down the river again, this time it went a little further, and stopped in front of Ling Puyu, the daughter of the prime minister. In Kang Yanning's eyes, Ling Puyu was good in everything except her eyesight. Ling Puyu in the previous life had always been
She admires the third prince, and is naturally indifferent to Kang Yanning, who is married to the third prince.
Before getting married, Ling Puyu was also a frequent guest invited to banquets in the Kyoto circle, and the two would often meet. Although Ling Puyu ignored Kang Yanning because of the third prince, she never got into trouble. Others instigated Ling Puyu to make remarks to her.
When ridiculed, she didn't bother to care about it and turned around and left. It can be seen that the Ling family has a very good family tradition. Kang Yanning even felt that if it weren't for her, Ling Puyu would be the best choice for the third prince's concubine.
The daughter of the prime minister is definitely not bad at literary talent. Ling Puyu picked up the golden cup in front of her and thanked him generously. She had always admired the third prince, and now she wanted to make achievements and stand shoulder to shoulder with him.
Ling Puyu calmed down and wrote a poem with great emotion, praising the Holy One for loving the people like a son. Seeing that the Holy One was extremely satisfied, he praised the Prime Minister for his well-bred education and rewarded her again and again. She secretly glanced at the expression of the third prince.
Seeing the third prince smiling, her cheeks turned red.
Kang Yanning curled her lips, she is a good girl, but her eyes are not very good.
Ling Puyu thanked Wan'en and gently pushed the Jinbei, and the Jinbei moved forward. Kang Yanning watched the Jinbei go around others without stopping. When it came to herself, it began to stop slowly until the Jinbei stopped in front of her.
