Chapter 47: Celebration Banquet or Hongmen Banquet
Shen Tingyu:!!!
She had been silently waiting for General Luo to leave, but she didn't expect that before he left, he would still keep asking questions, as if he would not give up until he saw her.
Shen Tingyu frowned and hesitated.
General Luo left.
Shen Tingyu poked her head out from her clothes, jumped up, then squatted silently, covering her head with her hands, worried... Should she see him or not? If she saw him, she felt a little distressed about the points, but if she didn't see him, she was worried that something beyond her expectations would happen, and she was struggling.
Xin Hongying was stunned for a moment, thinking that she was angry because he had suffocated her in his clothes. He said softly, "I was wrong, fairy, don't be angry."
She looked up, wanting to cry but unable to. After she tickled herself back, she wasn't too angry, she was just a little hesitant...
Based on her experience in reading literature, a celebration banquet is equivalent to a Hongmen Banquet, it just depends on whose Hongmen Banquet it is.
Shen Tingyu wanted to refuse, but she was more afraid of an accident like the one that happened to the Queen Mother. After much deliberation, she decided to go. She used the mount talisman and secretly released Da Que'er.
The celebration banquet was held in Penglai Pavilion, which was decorated extremely luxuriously, with pavilions and waterside terraces. There was a grand banquet with singing and dancing, a night banquet, and water fireworks and lanterns to celebrate with the people.
The ministers brought their families into the palace, and the atmosphere was very lively. The banquet ended early to reward the merits, and everyone was in high spirits drinking and chatting. For a time, there was singing and dancing in the palace.
After thirty rounds of drinking, the banquet was already halfway over.
"Where is the Imperial Master?"
Luo Hun turned his head and looked around, but did not see the figure of the National Master. He frowned slightly, put down the wine glass in his hand in disappointment, picked up the wine pot, and drank it all in one gulp.
A dark light flashed in the Queen Mother's eyes, and she smiled: "Emperor, I think this banquet is missing a meritorious official."
Luo Hun's eyes lit up, and he took the initiative to join in: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is absolutely right. I earnestly request Your Majesty to invite the Imperial Master to join us in the fun."
All the soldiers who survived the battlefield wanted to meet this mysterious and beautiful imperial teacher who saved their lives from the battlefield by predicting the will of heaven.
All the pressure was given to Xin Hongying. He turned the wine glass with his fingers and lowered his eyes silently. Fireworks exploded in the wine glass. The gorgeous fireworks filled the entire surface of the cup, as well as a corner of the eaves behind it, on which there was a small black dot.
The little black dot is Shen Tingyu.
She sat alone on the eaves. The bustle of the banquet had nothing to do with her. She watched the fireworks and lanterns leisurely. Next to her was Da Queer, who was fat because of the excellent food in the palace.
She snuggled up to its wings and teased her with its fallen feathers.
The beauty on the lotus lantern was very pretty, with excellent dancing skills, and was truly stunning. Shen Tingyu was fascinated by her.
Suddenly hearing the word "National Master", Shen Tingyu's alarm bells rang. Her prediction was correct. Here came her Hongmen Banquet!
She was shocked and speechless by the unanimous requests from the people at the banquet below. Why did all of these people want to see her? ! !
Why!
The banquet was barely halfway through. If she showed up at this moment, it would disrupt her plans, because the Transformation Pill had a time limit and could not last until the end of the banquet.
But now the momentum for requesting an audience is so strong that she has to show up!
She rode down from the eaves on a large bird, clicked to use the transformation pill, and the expression on her face changed, suddenly becoming cold and indifferent: "You want to see me."
She strode to the center of the banquet, and for a moment all eyes were focused on her, with stunned expressions and exclamations.
"What a nice view……"
The night fireworks bloomed behind her, making her fairy-like face look more extraordinary than that of an ordinary person.
Concubine Yu looked at the prince's blurred eyes when he looked at Chen Tingyu, and her fingers suddenly clenched. There was a hint of hatred in her eyes, which was not directed at Xin Mingzhe, but at the national teacher.
Luo Hun was also dazed for a moment, then came to his senses and led the soldiers to express their sincere gratitude. Shen Tingyu nodded and said, "This is the duty of the state teacher. You don't have to do this."
Finally she finished speaking and was about to find an excuse to leave.
The Queen Mother said slowly and gently, "Master, the banquet has begun. Please take your seat. I'll toast you a glass."
She raised her glass first, and Shen Tingyu's excuse for leaving was swallowed by her stomach.
In public, she couldn't offend the empress dowager or go too far. Besides, the empress dowager had been thinking about seeing her last time. If she refused, who knows what unpredictable things might happen in the future.
Shen Tingyu sighed slightly in his heart and sat at the table.
The palace maid beside her poured her some wine. She raised her glass and said in a cold voice, "Queen Mother, please!"
She tilted her head back and drank it all in one gulp. The spiciness made her almost cough, but she forced herself to hold it back. It was so spicy! She put the glass further away and stopped drinking.
The Queen Mother smiled, and seeing her smile was particularly kind, Shen Tingyu felt puzzled.
As she sat down, the sound of dance and music from the banquet became pleasing to her ears.
Now that he was seated, Shen Tingyu was not in a hurry to leave so early and make such an eye-catching move.
She looked at the delicacies on the table and swallowed her saliva. She held the chopsticks and slowly enjoyed the long-lost food. She was so moved that she was about to cry and could hardly maintain her cold appearance.
Woohoo, it’s so delicious.
Shen Tingyu inadvertently met Xin Hongying's surprised and puzzled eyes. By the way, Xin Hongying knew that her human form could not last long, so she helped to make a plan, but now this plan was disrupted.
She could only make the best of it.
"Xiao Qi, you must help me keep an eye on the Transformation Pill and see when it will lose its effectiveness."
[Host, Xiao Qi will definitely remind you, don't worry... Hehe]
She had an indifferent expression, as if she was keeping people at a distance. She just kept eating and eating. She wanted to drive people away, but it attracted more people to try to get closer to her and make friends with her by eating.
But most of the time they were talking, while Shen Tingyu was eating, occasionally nodding and smiling.
Gradually, a blush appeared on her cheeks, and even her movements became a little slow, but she herself had not noticed it yet.
Xin Hongying's eyes never left her. He noticed her abnormality at the first moment. His fingers that were turning the wine glass stopped and he thought to himself, "Oh no! She's drunk!"
Many people at the banquet noticed His Majesty's eyes, as if they were glued to the beautiful imperial teacher. They seemed to understand something, or see through something, and secretly criticized it.
The wine glass that Shen Tingyu placed on the edge was brushed off by her sleeve and rolled under the table. She staggered and tried to reach out to pick it up, as if she was about to fall to the ground in the next moment.
Xin Hongying frowned slightly as he watched, and his fingers circled around his finger bones, feeling anxious. His plan had been disrupted. He was worried that she would suddenly lose control of her magic power due to being drunk and turn into a voodoo doll in public.
That's bad!
He suddenly came down from the main seat, took her wrist with his slender white hand and left.
The noisy banquet fell silent for a moment, leaving only the sounds of string music, singing and dancing. The noise started again, and everyone's eyes lit up slightly, and they immediately whispered to each other.
