(Easter egg at the end of the chapter, please click to see it!)
As night falls, thousands of houses in Yuanyang City are lit with lights.
Everything is so quiet, everything is so peaceful.
The threat of zombies has gone away. Even if there is no wealth now and even people have to work every day, as long as the family is safe and together, people will feel happy.
What's more, today, the palace gave everyone a day off and distributed extra food.
The common people spent the Mid-Autumn Festival in a simple way, and the palace did the same, but it was more luxurious.
Wearing a blue robe, Zhao Yanxun was walking in the back garden. His destination was Peach Blossom Island in the middle of the lake, where the palace's Mid-Autumn Festival banquet will be held tonight.
In recent days, Zhao Yanxun rarely comes to the back garden, so he enjoys the night view while walking.
Two young eunuchs held lanterns and carefully led the way, while Huo An and Lin Quan followed behind Zhao Yanxun.
A few of them walked onto the corridor, which naturally attracted the attention of everyone on the island.
"The prince is here!" Huang Rongrong was the first to speak.
Inside the pavilion, a total of three long tables were set up at the moment, with exquisite pastries and fresh fruits placed on them, and of course, fine wine.
Three tables were set up in order of priority, with Xue Baojun on one side in the middle and Huang Rongrong and Lin Jingyu on both sides.
On both sides of the road leading to the pavilion were musicians from the ceremony hall, who were ready to play.
In addition, there are dancers, actors, and craftsmen waiting nearby, and they will take turns performing performances later.
And all this today was arranged by Xue Baoyun.
Ever since Xue Baoyun went to Jinshen Palace to plead guilty during the last internal investigation of the palace, her relationship with Zhao Yanxun has become much more estranged.
So taking advantage of this opportunity, Xue Baoyun planned to please Zhao Yanxun and repair the relationship.
Glancing at Yuzhu beside him, Xue Baoyun said calmly: "Let them all start playing!"
Yuzhu went to deliver the order, while Xue Baoyun stood up from the pier, smiled and said to Lin Jingyu: "Two sisters, let's go and greet the prince!"
Xue Baojun smiled warmly and was much more easy-going than before, which made Lin Jingyu a little uncomfortable.
Before Lin Jingyu could answer, she saw Huang Rongrong taking the first step and walking out of the pavilion.
"Sister, please go first!" Lin Jingyu said with a smile.
Xue Baoyun nodded slightly, then took the first step, Lin Jingyu followed closely, and the two of them walked down the steps.
The musicians received the instructions and were already playing the music, and the melodious sound of silk and bamboo could be heard far away.
What the musicians were playing at this moment was clearly the song played during the celebration of the Heavenly Palace in a famous work by Zhao Yanxun in his previous life.
Walking on the corridor and hearing this familiar music, Zhao Yanxun couldn't help but think of the time he spent squatting at home watching TV during the winter and summer vacations.
Only by embodying the things of the past life into the present can Zhao Yanxun's past life be real.
The longer he stays in this world, the more he is assimilated into this era. Things that were unimaginable in his previous life are now taken lightly.
The tune is melodious and was originally used to celebrate military achievements in the heavenly palace. Now it seems appropriate to be used as a song to celebrate military achievements in the royal palace.
To be honest, the palace has made great achievements in the past six months, and it is indeed time to celebrate.
There was a court meeting in the morning, Zhao Yanxun had a banquet with the ministers in the afternoon, and he left the evening to his family.
When the corridor was about to be finished, Zhao Yanxun saw the three of them, Xue Baoyun, and he felt even happier.
Beauty is like jade, and the beauty is delicious...it will naturally make people happy both physically and mentally.
"I respectfully welcome the prince!"
Zhao Yanxun hurriedly stepped forward to greet them, spread out his hands and helped the three princesses up.
"My beloved, there is no need to be polite!"
At this time, Huang Rongrong grabbed Zhao Yanxun's sleeve and said with slight dissatisfaction: "My lord, why did you come here? We have been waiting for you for a long time!"
She only used this sentence to attract Zhao Yanxun's attention, and then Zhao Yanxun explained to her: "My dear concubine, it's my fault for neglecting you. I will punish you with three drinks later!"
Xue Baoyun on the side couldn't stand it anymore, and immediately said: "Your Majesty, why don't you take a seat first?"
Zhao Yanxun turned his head and looked at his first wife, and saw only sincerity on Xue Baoyun's face.
"Okay... take your seats first!"
The group of people took a step forward, and when passing among the musicians, Zhao Yanxun couldn't help but pause for a while.
"Knowing that the prince likes this piece of music, I asked them to practice it more and present it to the prince today!"
Xue Baoyun worked hard to regain her favor, and tonight was her chance to show off.
Zhao Yanxun nodded and said: "This piece of music has a complicated score, please take the trouble!"
Zhao Yanxun hummed some of the music he liked in his previous life according to his own memory, and asked the musicians to compose it all.
So since arriving in Yuanyang, these musicians have not had an easy time because they have too many new songs to practice.
In the past, it was Huang Rongrong who drove them to practice, but now she is the princess with a higher status. These talents are really miserable.
Xue Baoyun smiled even more: "Husband and wife are one body. As long as the prince is happy, it will be my concubine's blessing!"
Xue Baoyun was already extremely beautiful, and with the aura blessed by the princess, Xue Baoyun was even more beautiful at this moment.
For a moment, Zhao Yanxun watched intently, and the previous unhappiness seemed less important at this time.
As soon as that thing hits the brain of a man, his sanity will automatically decline. This is the law of nature.
I saw Zhao Yanxun holding Xue Baoyun's jade hand, smiling warmly and saying: "If my beloved concubine has such a heart, I will have nothing to worry about!"
Xue Baoyun's words just now showed her sincerity. When she received Zhao Yanxun's response, she knew that the previous matter was probably over.
Feeling the tenderness in Zhao Yanxun's hands, Xue Baoyun was excited. It had been a long time since her husband showed affection to her in public.
Although the speculation has been restored, in order to ensure nothing goes wrong, Xue Baoyun continued: "I am stupid and short-sighted. If there is any lack of consideration, please forgive me!"
"Hey... Who can make mistakes without being a sage?"
The goal of beating the harem was achieved, and at this moment, reconciliation was taking place, and Zhao Yanxun didn't have much resistance.
After hearing his words, Xue Baoyun finally felt relieved. The previous incident had been revealed, and he could be the princess with peace of mind from now on.
The more he thought about it, the clearer Xue Baoyun became about how high her husband's prestige was now, and that deposing the princess was just a matter of words.
While Xue Baoyun was relieved, Huang Rongrong was confused.
Isn't it just that we rehearsed a song? Do we need to say it so seriously?
She didn't understand what was said just now, but Lin Jingyu on the side knew the deeper meaning, but it was not important to her.
At this moment, Huang Rongrong was heard muttering: "Your Majesty, don't waste time, I still want to see the magic trick!"
Hearing this, Xue Baoyun couldn't help but smile and said: "Rong Rong, you are too anxious. How can you not wait for me and the prince to say a few words?"
If it were in the past, Xue Baoyun would have felt weird when she said this, but now she was really joking.
Now she feels that Huang Rongrong's silly look is quite cute, at least much better than the deep-minded Lin Jingyu.
Zhao Yanxun also smiled and said: "Okay, let's take a seat!"
Mid-Autumn Festival, full moon night.
As a small family, they gathered on Peach Blossom Island to watch the dance band.
