Take herself for example.
Gu Junwen is still young. Although she inherited her father's military title, her rank is not high, so she should be arranged in a seat at the back.
However, considering the emperor's favor and the hundreds of thousands of Northern Frontier Iron Cavalry under her control, her seat couldn't be too far back.
So, I had a hard time arranging seats.
I heard that it was only after the Empress specifically asked Emperor Mingde for instructions that the arrangement was made.
In this way, Gu Junwen was arranged to be under Ye Nan.
Alas! Gu Junwen sighed secretly.
Just now, the eunuch took a long detour, and she thought she could stay away from the male protagonist. But who knew that he would sit so close to her.
Helpless, Gu Junwen had no choice but to sit down.
She looked around. Ye Nanyi, Duan Xurui... very good, they were all acquaintances.
Looking further back, Gu Junwen and Lu Yu accidentally looked at each other again.
Logically speaking, the Qisheng Dynasty looked down upon business, and the Lu family had been engaged in business for generations, so they should not be qualified to attend the banquet.
But Lu Yuxin was the commander of the Jin imperial guards, and with the mediation of Concubine Yao, he also had a seat at the banquet.
The time has come. There is only the sound of clothes rubbing against each other, and everyone kneels on the ground:
"Your Majesty, the Queen is in good health."
"Everyone, get up." Queen Su raised her hand from afar and sat upright on the high seat.
Empress Su was the legitimate daughter of Minister Su. She had just turned 40, and she was well-maintained, wearing a pearl crown and phoenix hairpin, looking elegant and graceful, and she was very much like a queen mother.
Empress Su had no children. When she was young, she was injured while shielding an arrow for Emperor Mingde, and she gave birth to her daughter, Princess Wuyou, at the age of 23.
The Empress had no children, so at the instruction of Emperor Mingde, Empress Su took away the eldest prince whose mother had just passed away and raised him in her care.
Sitting to the lower right of the Queen was Imperial Concubine Yao, who was wearing a costly brocade robe and her eyes revealed her elegance.
Time has not left any trace on her face, and no one could have imagined that she is already the mother of two princes.
Thanks to her good looks, Concubine Yao has been favored for many years.
"Lanjuan, Daiqing, give the orders and let's begin." The queen sat firmly on the high platform, with a graceful temperament.
"Yes, Queen."
As the drumbeats sounded, maids, all dressed in hookah-colored clothes, came up one after another, carrying white jade milk tea, almond cakes, etc.
Even from a distance, Gu Junwen could feel the fragrance going straight into his nostrils. His appetite instantly increased and he couldn't help but touch his nose.
Ruyi Cake, Eight Dragon Plate with Gold-Painted Dragon and Phoenix Decorations... Enticed by the exquisite plates in front of him, Gu Junwen couldn't wait to pick up his chopsticks.
"Are you General Gu?" A palace maid in a pink coat and skirt came to Gu Junwen, twisting her waist and saying, "My master wants to see you."
