Chapter 156 Host, among the people attending the banquet today, there is a fake one!
When Qin Yue woke up in a daze, she suddenly felt that there were many stars in front of her eyes for a moment, but they disappeared the next moment. Qin Yue
just thought that she was dizzy after waking up, raised her chubby hands and rubbed her eyes gently, and yawned again.
Everyone was originally staring at Qin Yue's glowing eyes, but the moment Qin Yue woke up, they immediately withdrew their eyes. She
was still rejoicing in her heart: Phew... Fortunately, I withdrew quickly, I shouldn't have been discovered by the little official...
When Lu saw Qin Yue wake up, she immediately got up, carefully held her in her arms, and walked quickly to the yard next to her.
Along the way, she was full of love: poor sister Yue, who was still young but had to get up early to attend court, had only eaten a bowl of milk in the whole morning, and must have been hungry...
Before Qin Yue woke up, Old Lady Qin had already pulled her brother and sister-in-law to ask about the reason for the sudden flower viewing banquet. After
a conversation, she just learned that it turned out that the flower viewing banquet was organized by the Queen Mother herself at the order of the Duke of Rong's Mansion. The Queen
Mother had two purposes for doing so.
First, she hoped that through this banquet, the Duke of Rong's Mansion, which had been silent for a long time, would once again attract the attention of the dignitaries in the capital and return to the public's view.
Secondly, he wanted to take this opportunity to show some people that the backers behind Yue Jie'er were powerful, and to warn those who had ill intentions not to make trouble for themselves and not to try to cause trouble in front of Yue Jie'er.
Nowadays, Yue Jie'er's reputation in the capital is at its peak, and she has almost become the most popular topic in the capital.
Many major events that have happened in the capital recently are inextricably linked to Yue Jie'er, which will naturally attract the covetousness of some people with ulterior motives, trying to use Yue Jie'er to achieve their own ulterior motives.
The emperor is busy with state affairs and eating melons in the court; outside the court, let the queen mother - Yue Jie'er's great grandmother take action to shock them.
At this time, Qin Yue, who had just finished drinking milk, was carried out of the room.
As soon as she went out, she ran into an elderly woman.
Qin Yue looked closely and immediately danced with excitement, shouting happily: "Ah, ah, ah, ah..."
[Ah! It's the Queen Mother! I wonder if the great grandmother has taken the pills for treating hair loss? ]
[I hope the great grandmother has taken them as soon as possible and got rid of the trouble of hair loss as soon as possible! ] The Queen Mother
was very relieved when she heard this.
She really didn't expect that the first thing the young man cared about when he met her was her hair loss problem. It was obvious that he really cared about her, the great grandmother.
The Queen Mother said with a smile on her face: "Oh, my dearest, it's been a long time since we last met. I miss our sister Yue so much."
Before she finished speaking, the Queen Mother stretched out her arms and wanted to hug Qin Yue.
This sudden action frightened Lu Shi enough, and she quickly spoke to persuade her: "Queen Mother, you can't do that! Sister Yue can be held by me, why would I bother you to do it yourself. Besides, Sister Yue is not light now!"
The Queen Mother smiled and replied: "Man'er, you can just call me your great aunt in the future. Although I am old, I am still very strong. Don't worry, just let me kiss her well and we can... "My beloved sister Yue."
Qin Yue also stretched out her lotus-root-like arms to the Queen Mother, and kept making "ahhhh" sounds from her mouth, and kept repeating in her heart: [Hehehe, mother, mother, I just want the great grandmother to hug me, hehe...]
Seeing this, Lu couldn't help but shook her head helplessly, and secretly sighed in her heart: This sister Yue is really not afraid of the Queen Mother at all...
And after Qin Yue was held in the arms of the Queen Mother, she behaved very well.
After all, although the Queen Mother looked healthy, she was still old, and the bones of the elderly were fragile. If she was accidentally twisted, it would take a long time to recover, so she didn't dare to move at all.
Just like this, the group slowly walked into the banquet hall.
The moment they stepped into the flower hall, the originally noisy scene suddenly became quiet, and everyone's eyes were focused on the empress dowager.
The reason was simple. There were only two people in the entire Southern Dynasty who could wear the phoenix robe. Judging from their age alone, the identity of this person was obvious - it was the empress dowager of the current dynasty!
Immediately afterwards, everyone present stood up, bowed to the empress dowager in an orderly manner, and shouted in unison: "Greetings to the empress dowager!"
The empress dowager's expression changed abruptly since she entered the flower hall. The gentleness and kindness she had shown to Qin Yue disappeared, replaced by a stern and solemn look, as if the amiable empress dowager before was just an illusion of everyone...
The empress dowager raised her hand slightly, motioning everyone to stand up, and said slowly: "Everyone, stand up. Today is a banquet hosted by my mother's family and invites everyone to come and appreciate the flowers. This is not the court, so there is no need to be restrained. Everyone can be as casual as they want."
Then, the empress dowager took Qin Yue to a pavilion, and the moment she turned around to talk to Qin Yue, she became the gentle empress dowager again.
Everyone: Woohoo, why do I feel like I'm being rejected by the Queen Mother...
Just when everyone wanted to get close to Xiao Fuguan but didn't dare get close to the Queen Mother, and was in a very tangled state, the system finally spoke.
System: [Host, there are fresh melons to eat, do you want to eat them? ]
Qin Yue was immediately shocked, and immediately replied in her heart: [With this fresh melon in front of you, you'd be a fool if you don't eat it! Come on, sister, serve the food! ]
Everyone was also excited: This, this, this, is it coming so soon? What expressions should they put on? Oh, I really want to laugh a few times! Oh! No, no! I have to hold it back! I have to prepare something to eat melons!
So just as Qin Yue finished speaking, everyone in the flower hall put the fruit plates and dried fruits in front of them, ready to eat melons!
Even the Queen Mother licked her lips unconsciously, and her eyes were full of excitement. Well, it has been a long time since she could eat melons on the spot, although the last time she ate melons on the spot was her own melon.
During this period, she sent her nanny to the emperor every day to inquire about any new melons, so although she was in the deep palace, she did not miss any melons that Qin Yue ate!
Oh, by the way, the empress and the concubines also had nothing to do all day, so they would come to her place from time to time to eat melons...
or eat melons while eating melons...
or eat melons while playing mahjong...
or eat melons while role-playing...
in short, they were having a lot of fun...
Her bedroom has almost become their exclusive place to eat melons...
As for why they have to do it in her bedroom, it is probably because the nanny’s storytelling is too exciting...
Not only that, the nanny has also trained several apprentices, who tell stories every day, with the main goal of never getting tired of listening...
Sometimes the emperor comes to the harem and can’t find anyone, but as long as he goes to her place, he will definitely find someone...
However, although it is very interesting to listen to the nannies talking about melons, it is not as fun as eating melons on the spot! !
Well, she definitely didn’t hold a banquet just because she wanted to eat melons, and she also came here in person...
Well, absolutely not! !
The nanny next to the queen mother showed an expression as if she saw through everything, and she said that the queen mother left the palace because she wanted to eat melons!
If Eunuch Li was present, he would have understood something immediately. His Majesty's love of gossip is not without reason...
Just as everyone was expecting, the system spoke again.
[Host, among the people attending the banquet today, there is a fake one! ]
Qin Yue: Huh? ?
Everyone: Haha? ?
