Chapter 81 Royal Palace Banquet

She is as smart as Shen Yuyan. Why can't she hear the meaning of Mu Yunting's scolding? She hurried forward and said, "It's your negligence. Please punish her."

"That's all. Get up and pay attention to it in the future." Seeing Shen Yuyan, Mu Yunting also softened his tone.

"I don't know what Your Highness is planning?"

"I have asked people to prepare the things, so you don't have to bother."

Shen Yuhuan couldn't believe that Mu Yunting asked someone to prepare the gift for so long before she told her about this matter. Is it so difficult for someone to send a message to her?

Thinking of this, a cold and cruel light flashed from the bottom of Shen Yujuan's eyes. She hated Xie Zhiruo. If it hadn't been for her, how could she become like this? How could you do this to her!

"I'm here today to tell you that I'm going to take Xie Zhiruo with me on the night of the banquet, and you're ready to prepare." Mu Yunting threw a blockbuster at Shen Yujuan again. He actually belted Xie Zhiruo to attend the emperor's birthday party! You should know that the concubine is not qualified to attend such a banquet at all!

Although she was extremely angry, Shen Yuyan was still soft and obedient. I'm sure you will make good preparations."

"Ye-huh, I will leave first if I have nothing to do." After saying that, Mu Yunting got up and planned to leave.

"Your Highness, it's late at night now. Why don't you rest here?" This is the first time that Shen Yuyan has married Mu Yunting for so long that she took the initiative to ask Mu Yunting to stay.

Hearing this, Mu Yunting paused, and then remembered that he had never rested in Shen Yuyan's yard after he came back from the disaster area. Thinking of them who had helped each other before, he couldn't help but feel a little soft. As soon as I wanted to nod and agree, I thought of Shen Yujuan's ruthlessness to me and said coldly, "I still haven't dealt with it." After saying that, he went straight out, but he didn't mean to remember at all.

Looking at the back of Mu Yunting's decision to leave, Shen Yujuan's pleading eyes gradually turned cold and became more and more gloomy...

Looking at such Shen Yuhuan, Feiyun couldn't help shaking. Such a master is really terrible!

On the day of the banquet, Mu Yunting woke up in Xie Zhiruo's yard and left. There were still a lot of things waiting for him to do.

"Miss, this is the dress sent to you by His Royal Highness."

After a night of 'fight', Xie Zhiruo leaned weakly on the edge of the bed and looked at the very complicated dress in Yuexi's hand and sighed gently.

Mu Yunting wanted to take her to the banquet tonight. Originally, she didn't want to go, but she didn't want to refuse him, so she agreed.

"The water bathed by the lady is ready."

"Ye-huh, I know." Although it hasn't been once or twice, she will still feel embarrassed to let Yuexi see the 'strawberry' on her body.

The bathing time this time is longer than before. When she changed her dress and sat in front of the dresser, Xie Zhiruo looked at herself in the bronze mirror and was speechless for a moment. She seldom looks in the mirror after crossing, and almost forgets what she looks like.

"Miss, you are so beautiful..." Looking at Xie Zhiruo after being dressed up, Yuexi couldn't help sighing.

"This is just a leather thing. I'm not the previous me..." Xie Zhiruo said with a smile. This girl is more and more like to flatter her!

"Oi, let's go to the crown princess first." Mu Yunting told her to get ready and then go to Shen Yuyan's yard and go to the palace with Shen Yuyan.

"Good." Yuexi responded happily.

Qiaoqiao, a maid of honor sent by Yuexi and another Mu Yunting, walked in the direction of Shen Yuyan's yard.

Shen Yuyan also got up early to prepare. She is the crown princess, and these things must not be neglected.

"The princess prepared it quickly." Jia Baozhu, who was also dressed up, walked into Shen Yujuan's yard leisurely.

"Is Sister Jia like this?" Looking at Jia Baozhu's dress, Shen Yuyan frowned slightly and asked.

"Oh, didn't His Royal Highness tell the crown princess? His Royal Highness asked me to go with him at today's banquet!" Jia Baozhu was so proud when he said this.

Shen Yuxuan secretly clenched her hands, took a few deep breaths to calm down her anger, and then smiled at Jia Baozhu.

"Your Highness wants your sister to go to the palace to meet the Jade Noble Concubine and let you talk in a good way. I don't want my sister to miss Yu Guifei.

Hearing the words, the smile on Jia Baozhu's face stagnated, and her eyes narrowed angrily. Shen Yuyan was laughing at the fact that she ran into the palace to find the Jade Princess on the second day of her wedding!

"That's right, my aunt, I think I have to be tight!"

Just as the two were fighting, Xie Zhiruo slowly walked into Shen Yuyan's yard.

Jia Baozhu didn't know that Xie Zhiruo was going to follow her. She stared at Xie Zhiruo who came to them and felt a little unbelievable.

The reason why she was able to see this banquet was that she had a favored aunt and noble concubine in the palace, but Xie Zhiruo had nothing!

Shen Yujuan also saw Xie Zhiruo. Her eyes burst into cold hatred, but she soon returned to her previous indifference with a faint smile on her face.

"Gance to the Crown Princess." A few steps away from Shen Yuyan, Xie Zhiruo was slightly blessed with her body. Please rest in peace.

"Thank you for coming." Shen Yujuan came forward and took Xie Zhiruo's hand, but Xie Zhiruo subconsciously shrank and avoided Shen Yujuan's hand.

Shen Yuxuan's face sank. Did she find that there was something wrong with the lotus seed soup she brought to her last time? It's impossible. The lotus seed soup can cover the smell of the medicine. Even if she tastes it, she can't tell it. How can Xie Zhiruo know?

"Let the princess wait for a long time." Originally, she admired Shen Yuyan in her heart, but because of the previous events, she had a great psychological obstacle, so now when she sees Shen Yuyan, she will subconsciously avoid it.

"It's okay. I just came out. I think the prince is already waiting outside. Let's go out."

Shen Yujuan walked in front of Xie Zhiruo and Jia Baozhu behind Shen Yuju. From time to time, Jia Baozhu would give Xie Zhiruo a hateful look. Although Xie Zhiruo knew, she just lowered her head slightly and didn't pay attention to it.

As soon as I arrived at the gate of Zhaoyang Palace, I saw Mu Yunting standing in front of the carriage.

"Your Highness has been waiting for a long time." Shen Yuyan came forward and whispered.

Mu Yunting glanced at the bottom of Xie Zhiruo's eyes standing behind with a smile, but quickly withdrew his eyes and said faintly, "Get in the car."

"Yes."

Shen Yujuan is the imperial concubine, so she and Mu Yunting ride in a carriage together, while Xie Zhiruo drinks Jia Baozhu in a carriage separately. Xie Zhiruo, who saw her carriage and Jia Baozhu separated, exhaled gently.

The carriage drove slowly. Although Xie Zhiruo, who was sitting in the carriage, was curious about the appearance of the Royal Palace of Fengyun Kingdom, she did not dare to lift the curtain to look at it. Yue Xi never left after accompanying Xie Zhiruo to Zhaoyang Palace. This was the first time she left Zhaoyang Palace, so she looked very excited, but she was also afraid that something wrong with her would affect Xie Zhiruo, so she could only suppress her emotions.

Looking at Yuexi, who had been holding her skirt, Xie Zhiruo shook her head helplessly, pulled her hand and comforted her softly, "Is Yuexi nervous?"

"Well, miss, this is the first time I left Zhaoyang Palace in Yuexi. I'm very worried that something will happen in a while."

"Sister Yuexi doesn't have to worry. At that time, just follow the rules to your wife." After getting along with each other these days, they happened to know that Xie Zhiruo is a very gentle master. Not only will she not lose her temper with them, but she will not punish them because she is in a bad mood. Gradually, they learn from Yuexi to get close to Xie Zhiruo, and there is no such restraint.

"Yes, Sister Qiaoqiao will help Yuexi more for a while!"

"Ye-huh, no problem." The three of them were talking like this, and the speed of the carriage began to slow down quickly, and it didn't take long to stop.

"Madam, please get out of the car."

Yue Xi and Qiao Qiao got out of the car first before helping Xie Zhiruo down.

The place where they got off the bus should be not far from the palace banquet, and many people's carriages parked here. Xie Zhiruo found Shen Yujuan and they walked towards them. As Mu Yunting's concubine, she wanted to follow Shen Yujuan all the time.

"See His Royal Highness, the Crown Princess."

"Get up."

As soon as he approached Mu Yunting, he heard the salute of the officials. Xie Zhiruo obediently walked behind Shen Yuyan. Today's banquet was made by Mu Yunting. It doesn't matter to her as long as she can see where Mu Yunting let her go. Besides, no one will notice such a small concubine as her on an occasion like this.

Although the palace banquet has not yet begun, a lot of people have come to the banquet. Although those people are wearing casual clothes, Xie Zhiruo knows that such a palace banquet does not have a certain status of officials or nobles who are not qualified to participate.

The women brought by the guests are all dressed up and don't look dazzling.

Mu Yunting sat at the bottom of the throne. Shen Yuyan sat next to him, while Xie Zhiruo and Jia Baozhu could only stand behind Shen Yuyan. They were not eligible to get a seat.

After Shen Yuying sat down, Mu Yunting left and wandered among the officials, and Xie Zhiruo's eyes always followed Mu Yunting and was reluctant to move away. She has always known that Mu Yunting is an indifferent person, but she has never seen him so flexible in interpersonal communication.

"See the Crown Princess." Just as Xie Zhiruo looked at Mu Yunting, she suddenly heard this beautiful female voice. Looking back, it was a woman in a light blue silk skirt. The woman looked young but looked old-fashioned because there was too much powder on her face.

Shen Yujuan, who was also in a daze, came to her senses when she heard the sound, and subconsciously pulled out a smile on her face. It turned out to be Mrs. Lin. I haven't seen you for a long time. The woman is Zhao Yanling, the direct wife of Lin Xingwen, the son of the Ministry of War.

"How is the princess doing?" Zhao Yanling's voice was relatively clear, and the tone was very clear. In addition, her voice was not small, so when she spoke to Shen Yujuan, some ladies looked at this way.

"His Royal Highness has a blessing star, and my concubine's blessing is good." Shen Yuhuan still has a very official smile on her face, but if you look closely, you will find that the smile on her face is out of sight, especially after Zhao Yanling's questioning.

"It seems that those rumors are just fictitious things. Princess, do you say it or not?" When Zhao Yanling said this, her eyes seemed to inadvertently glance at Xie Zhiruo, who was standing behind Shen Yuhuan. Jia Baozhu had also appeared in some public places because she was the niece of Yu Guifei before, so Zhao Yanling knew her. She guessed that the one next to Jia Baozhu should be the legendary concubine who was favored by the prince, because she was not wearing the maid's dress.

Hearing this, Shen Yuhuan's eyes were cold. Zhao Yanling used to come and say something to herself when she had nothing to do. She liked to watch those official's direct wives being disliked and abandoned by her husband. It's really abominable!

At this moment, a tall young man with handsome facial features came to them.

"See the Crown Princess."

"Lin Shilang, please get up." The person who came was Zhao Yanling's husband Lin Xingwen.

"Thank you, Princess."

"Why do you have nothing to do to disturb the purity of the crown princess?" Lin Xingwen turned his head slightly and said to Zhao Yanling in a low voice.

Zhao Yanling shut up when Lin Xingwen came over, and she still didn't dare to resist her husband. Everyone in the imperial city knows that Lin Xingwen is a dedicated person, because he has no other woman except to marry Zhao Yanling. He doesn't even have a concubine or a general room. This is also the reason why Yanling likes to laugh at those wives who are neglected by their husbands.

"My wife is rude. Don't blame the princess."

"It's okay. It's just chatting with Lin Shilang's wife."

"I've heard for a long time that the crown princess is modest. Sure enough, my wife should learn more from the crown princess."

Xie Zhiruo felt very boring listening to their boring and polite words behind Shen Yuju. When she turned around, she saw Jia Baozhu's expression seemed to be a little strange. How could she stare at Lin Shilang all the time? Did she know him when she married in Zhaoyang Palace?

Thinking like this, Xie Zhiruo no longer thought deeply, and her eyes began to search for the figure of Mu Yunting again. But this time she didn't find Mu Yunting's figure. She saw another figure that made her familiar, that is, Mu Yunchen, who often followed her to the yard before her.

Mu Yunchen was slightly stunned when he saw Xie Zhiruo standing quietly behind Shen Yujuan. He didn't expect to see Xie Zhiruo on such an occasion, which shows Mu Yunting's love for her. In the past, he had never brought anyone else except for such an occasion with Shen Yu. It is. Of course, Jia Baozhu's side is quite special. As for why he called her together, he and Mu Yunting knew it.

At the moment when their eyes collided, both of them showed a heartfelt smile and nodded slightly.

With the passage of time, there are more and more guests in the banquet hall, and everyone is chatting together. The whole banquet hall seemed very noisy.

After a long time, Xie Zhiruo found Mu Yunting's figure from the crowd. Lin Shilang, who had been talking to Shen Yuyan before, also walked to Mu Yunting's side as if he was saying something.

Mu Yunting saw that the guests were almost there. He slowly walked out of the crowd and returned to his position, waiting for the arrival of the Lord tonight.

Seeing Mu Yunting return to his position, other people also returned to their position. When Mu Yunting passed a position not far from his head, his eyes suddenly became a little trance, but soon returned to Qingming.

"The emperor is here, the queen is here..." With a long and loud announcement from the palace people, not long after they sat down, everyone stood up one after another.

"Hangt Long live the emperor, long live the queen, long live the queen..."

"The Qing family is flat."

"Thank you, Emperor."

"I'm very happy that you came to participate in my birthday today."

After Mu Qilie's business-like speech, Mu Yunting stood up with Shen Yuyan and walked to the center of the hall.

"I wish the emperor a happy life in the East China Sea..." Mu Yunting and Shen Yujuan knelt down and made a big salute to Mu Qilie one after another.

"Hahaha... OK, OK, OK!" Mu ichilie was obviously very happy today, saying three good words in a row!

After that, Mu Yunting sent the gifts he had prepared. With Mu Yunting, he became the first-level officials and princes. Xie Zhiruo sighed slightly in her heart. No wonder the banquet began to be held in the daytime! It turns out that it will take hours to send gifts and say blessings!

Mu Yunting leaned back slightly in this empty block. He happened to meet Xie Zhiruo, who was standing not far away. Xie Zhiruo lowered his head and looked at Mu Yunting doubtfully. He thought he had something to explain to himself. Who knew that he just looked at her and sat upright, which made Xie Zhiruo a little puzzled!

Mu Yunting thought that this move was very secretive, but he didn't know that all this was seen by Mu Yunchen, who was sitting not far away, and Mu Yunchen's eyes darkened.

I don't know how long it took. Xie Zhiruo felt a little numb when she stood on her feet. Only those people finished the gift. She raised her head and secretly looked at the queen who had always had a smile on her face. She couldn't help admiring her deep skills. Did she smile for so long and didn't feel her mouth numb? If it's her, her face should be cramped!

Mu Chilie, who was sitting on the top, gently hit the high-five, and a row of dancers in ethereal gauze skirts filed out. All of them are graceful, and the dance steps are so fascinating.

Xie Zhiruo, who was already a little drowsy, was also attracted by such a dance. She used to see modern dance in modern times. Ancient dance was almost never seen, and she felt very novel and beautiful for a while.

It wasn't long before the dancers retreated, and the queen's voice sounded. I don't know what good programs you have prepared for the emperor this year? In previous years, on Mu Filiye's birthday, many princes and princesses would prepare their own programs to cheer them up and casually show their talents.
