Chapter 2 Go to the banquet

The next day, Li Luo was awakened by A Lian. Because of yesterday's nightmare, he consumed a lot of energy. When he fell asleep, he was close to Yin, so he got up late.

A Lian took the water and entered the house. Li Luo still squinted slightly and looked like he had not yet woken up. After sitting up, he stretched out and rubbed his sleepy eyes. He was still lying on ** and refused to get up. He still looked lazy. A Lian put the water on the groomed shelf and turned his head to Li Luo with an anxious urge. "Princess, have you forgotten what day it is today? Why are you still asleep?" I can see A Lian's anxiety at this moment, because her eyebrows began to frown again.

Li Luo was not fully awake, and he was still very sleepy, but he felt confused, so he asked, "What's wrong? Do you think you're in a hurry?"

Seeing that Li Luo was in such a state, she was even more anxious. She hurried forward to drag her and urged, "Princess, today is the birthday of the noble concubine Liang. There will be a banquet at noon. If you don't go, you will miss the time..."

As soon as he heard what A Lian said, Li Luo was dumbfounded at that time. Looking at this memory, how could he forget such an important thing? If he went late, it was hard to guarantee that he would not be ridiculed. What's more, this noble concubine Liang was still extremely favored. If she was late for her birthday banquet, I'm afraid that she would not only lose face, but also be entered by some people with intentions. Insinuating calculations. So he interrupted A Lian's words that he wanted to say and said to her urgently, "A Lian, come on, help me clean up." After that, even if he got out of bed, it was almost noon, and there was no extra time to dawd. After hurriedly dressing up, he sat in front of the dressing table and asked A Lian to simply dress up.

After waiting, Li Luo got up and stepped back a few steps. He looked at himself in the bronze mirror from afar. He saw the woman in the mirror wearing a light blue embroidered shirt, a snow-covered satin jacket, a pearl white lake crepe skirt, and a light blue belt around her waist to decorate it, which highlighted the exquisite and symmetrical posture, and there was nothing on her head. Decoration, just a blue ribbon, gently tied a wisp of hair, and the rest was casually spread around the waist. The melon seed-shaped white and tender jade-like face, a pair of pear vortex slightly glowed between the cheeks, slightly pink. Although it is not extremely beautiful, there is another sense of beauty and free from vulgarity. In the ice-blue eyes, there is clearly a sadness. The behavior is blue, just standing quietly, like a snow orchid at the bottom of a secluded.

"Princess, you are so beautiful. You are so beautiful in everything you wear, but will it be a little monotonous to attend those concubines?" A Lian couldn't help admiring. At the same time, her eyes were faintly worried. Maybe she was afraid that Li Luo would be compared by other concubines.

Looking at himself in the bronze mirror, Li Luo just smiled indifferently and did not respond. This is the birthday of Liang Guifei. Who is Liang Guifei? Not to mention that the prime minister is her father, the status in this middle palace alone is unmatched, but the separation is just a distant marriage to Middle-earth. There is no power or power in this place. If she wears gorgeous and rich, it is beyond the rules. If it is too elegant, then It's disrespect for this birthday banquet. In this way, it's better to wear it together. It's not dazzling, nor lose your identity. In this way, it's simple and elegant, but it won't be too eye-catching.

Tell A Lian to prepare dim sum pear cake and other simple gifts, and prepare to go to the Acacia Hall. When I opened the door and walked out of the house, I found that the snow had already stopped. The snow had fallen all night, and the ground had accumulated a thick layer. The pear blossoms in the garden were also covered with a little bit of white snow, and some of them fell down. The beautiful scenery in the snow looked delicate and beautiful. This is not exactly what was written in the poem, 'six colors of gold tender, pear blossoms are white. Snow fragrance.

With such a beautiful scenery, the mood is much better. At this time, A Lian had prepared the gift, and the master and servant set out one after the other. This time, it's just a formality. Li Luo has an indifferent relationship with Liang Guifei. She can't be called a sister in the palace, and they don't have much contact with each other. It can be said that her relationship with Liang Guifei is neither a close sister, nor does she have any knot, and there is no intersection with each other.

In fact, it is not only the Liang noble concubine. The relationship between Li Luo and other concubines in the palace is the same. Since she married here two years ago, Li Luo clearly felt that they did not like her, and some even despised her. In this way, she only stayed in her residence calmly, not causing trouble, but just focused on herself. Their own things no longer communicate with other concubines. It's just because these concubines stay in the palace all year round, just to be favored by the emperor one day, so their hearts are full of comparison and suspicion. How can they easily meet you if they don't trust anyone?

The deep palace battle has always been extremely cruel. If you want to protect yourself, you must be able to see through the truth. If you stay away from these, you can also better protect yourself.

The heavy snow last night piled up thickly on the ground, so that every step of Li Luo was extra careful. After a curved and long water pavilion corridor, and then through a few flour lacquer palace walls, in front of you is the red vermilion lacquer palace gate, with a black golden nan wooden plaque hanging at the top, on which there are three big characters 'Acacia Hall'. Just as he was about to go in, a sound of Qingyue came from inside. As soon as Li Luo heard it, he heard it. It was "Ma Gu's Birthday".

Thinking that the birthday banquet had begun, Li Luo and A Lian walked to the hall. As soon as they stepped into the door of the hall, a burst of flower fragrance came to their nose. They were about to find the source of the flower fragrance, but they turned around and saw it. It turned out that there were dozens of plum blossoms in the hall. The plum blossomed like clouds bloomed in the snow, fragrant and fragrant. The fragrance is far away, which adds a lot of fun to the Hehuan Hall. It seems that this Liang noble concubine is a happy plum.

Li Luo sighed secretly in his heart, so he took a few steps with A Lian and entered the main hall. In the main hall, the guests were full, and the palace concubines and the important ministers in the court had already arrived. Seeing that Li Luoshan came late, the guests who were concentrating on listening to the play all looked at her, even on the stage. The babbling voice also stopped abruptly. Li Luo was uncomfortable with these eyes, sighing that it was too late, and the banquet had already begun.

When she didn't know what to do, she suddenly felt that a sharp look was shooting at Li Luo. She unconsciously shivered, looked for that look, and slowly looked up. Only then did she realize that this look was from the person in the hall. The person in the hall was wearing a black robe, a black palace tie around his waist, and a silver crown. , with a tall nose, thin lips, a face as heroic as a sculpture, and his magnificent heroic posture, the whole person exudes a kind of king's spirit that shocks the world.

However, at this moment, his sword-like eyebrows rose slightly, and under his long and slightly curly eyelashes was a pair of sharp and deep eyes. At this moment, the two eyes were exuding a cold atmosphere, which made people unconsciously have a sense of oppression. When they fell to the cold eyes above, they lowered their heads in a panic and hurriedly. Go, carefully and respectfully said, "I'm late. I hope the emperor will forgive me."

"Li Meiren, you are getting bolder and bolder. How dare you be late for the wedding banquet of the noble concubine Liang? Don't you pay attention to me and the noble concubine? The deep and powerful reproach slowly came to Liluo's ears. She did not dare to look up and was afraid of bump into his cold eyes. When he scolded her in a cold voice, he felt that it was like it was from hell, which made Li Luo a little creepy.

Li Luo really felt that at this time, everyone's eyes looked at her. Maybe there were still some people with a little gloating. At this time, no one would relieve her, and no one would interced for her or have a trace of sympathy. They may be waiting to see a good play. In the palace, there will never be real The calmness is always an open-to-scene fight and mutual suspicion.

After pondering for a moment, she replied without panic or hurry: "I didn't mean to be late, but thought that today was the birthday of the noble concubine, so I went to listen to the rain river to collect some nectar, mixed with the newly blooming pear blossoms in my pear garden, and made a pastry to celebrate my mother's birthday."

The voice is calm, and no emotions can be heard.

"Oh? I didn't expect my sister to have this thought. My sister is very curious. I don't know if my sister can order someone to show it? In her words, what claimed to be her sister was the noble concubine who invited the guests this time. At this time, she was sitting on the left side of the emperor. Today, she was dressed in a bright yellow brocade thick clothes, embroidered with a few lotus flowers on the brocade, a yellow jade ring ribbon tied around her waist, and her hair became a high Jinghongguiyun bun, and two peon were inserted on the left and right sides. The elixir-drunken flower hairpin has a cold golden red luster on the peony petals, and the dark bun seems to overflow. A pair of red phoenix eyes, like Zhu Dan in the mouth, is beautiful, which highlights her elegant temperament. Li Luo looked up slightly and found that she was looking up and down with those charming eyes at this time.

Li Luo lowered his head unnaturally, nodding at A Lian, and ordered her to put the food box on. The noble concubine Liang looked at these cakes carefully and said gently to Li Luo, "I had heard that my sister had a pair of skillful hands. The pastries made were crispy and smooth, and melted in the mouth. Today, I saw my sister's pastry. Sure enough, it was made. The dim sum is delicate and delicate. It seems that my sister really spent a lot of thought about it this time, right?

Li Luo smiled and replied calmly, "I don't dare. I just did it carefully. I hope the noble concubine can like it."

Liang Guifei also smiled and her eyes were gentle: "Sister, what are you talking about? You are so delicate. How can you not like it? Originally, my sister was thinking about asking you to make such a pastry. Unexpectedly, you sent it for my sister today. It's too late for my sister to be happy."

After saying that, she actually walked down the hall and personally helped Li Luo up. Li Luo was a little flattered, but she did not show any look on her face. She only retreated slightly and blessed her slightly. She smiled and said, "It's good if you like it."

After that, she pleaded with the cold-faced emperor. Her eyes were full of tenderness, and her voice was full of infinite gentleness. He pulled his lips slightly and said coldly, "Since my beloved concubine is not investigated, what else do I have to say? Leave the beauty and enter the seat." After saying that, he turned his eyes. He looked lovingly at the Liang noble concubine beside him.
