General’s Tempest White Moonlight (Rebirth) - Chapter 24
Liu Mingyue was furious.
But I don’t know if I was angry that I ran into Pei Shen initiatively, or because I was angry because Pei Shen hid and didn’t see him, he would be hit by myself.
“Big sister, don’t you go?” Brother Jue turned his head and looked at Liu Mingyue suspiciously, and the man who had just walked out from behind the palace gate.
Liu Mingyue took a deep breath, she couldn’t let the children see that her emotions were wrong.
She smiled at Brother Jue as usual, as if nothing happened, leaned down on the wheelchair, and whispered to him: “You and your Royal Highness go first, and I will follow you.”
“Okay.” Brother Jue nodded, then turned to pull the clothes of the fifth prince, and whispered to him that the wheelchair is inconvenient, can he walk more slowly, and wait for his elder sister.
While Liu Mingyue was pleased that Brother Jue was such a good boy, she took care of this person, enduring and forbearing, so she didn’t take a look at Pei Shen. Only ordered the maid behind him to push a little faster, not to fall too far behind the fifth prince and brother Jue.
Pei Shen followed them quietly, without saying a word from beginning to end.
Liu Mingyue had an illusion, always feeling that his gaze had been on her body, but she couldn’t look back to verify, she could only stare straight ahead with her neck stiff, so she was frustrated all the way down.
Then this anger happened to be hit by Zhang Youyi who came over triumphantly to show off.
Zhang Youyi is wearing a royal blue jacket today, and the hairpin on her head is also covered with blue gems and gorgeous golden tassels. The whole person is very beautiful. It was just that a few low-rank concubines from the palace arrived. Although they were dignified and luxurious, they were still suppressed by the youthful Zhang Youyi because of their age.
Zhang Youyi’s body was thoughtful, and it was indeed good-looking, so as soon as he appeared today, he immediately won praise from the daughters of several colleagues in the line of Prime Minister Zhang.
They were discussing what fabric her skirt was made of, and suddenly they heard movement at the entrance of the banquet hall. When they looked up, it was Liu Mingyue who was pushed in by the maid behind him in a wheelchair.
“Liu Mingyue, you came very early today.” Zhang Youyi walked over with a smile on his face: “I’m here to help the concubine De concubine supervise. Is there any mistake in the palace? What are you doing? “
Because the emperor wanted to announce in public today that the five princes would be handed over to the imperial concubine to raise him, he was worried about the dissatisfaction of the concubine, so he passed the birthday banquet to the imperial concubine and gave it full authority.
Zhang Youyi followed with a little light, and the seat happened to be near Prince Rong.
She just wandered around, saying that she was checking for Concubine De Fei. In fact, she looked at the tables one by one, but she was looking at everyone’s positions. She deliberately looked at Liu Mingyue’s position, sitting with someone from the Chengde Hou Mansion. Although she was very close to the concubine in the upper position, she was not on the same side as Prince Rong, and she was immediately happy again.
“Is there anything to do when I came here? Why don’t you ask all the concubines and maternal wives who have already arrived, and ask them what they want to do so early.” Liu Mingyue rolled her eyes. At this moment, there were only a few low-ranking concubines in the hall, and most of them took the opportunity to talk to relatives in their homes, and no one looked at her.
Zhang Youyi choked with anger.
In the past, when she confronted Liu Mingyue, she always moved her lips back and forth. Today, how could Liu Mingyue be like a firecracker, she directly stunned herself back.
That’s it! She doesn’t care about her right now, she will look good at the birthday banquet later!
Liu Mingyue didn’t take Zhang Youyi too seriously. After all, she had never seen this person in her previous life after she entered the family temple. She only knew that she could not marry Prince Rong as his concubine.
For a blind person who wanted to marry Prince Rong, Liu Mingyue didn’t bother to care about her.
She took brother Jue and the fifth prince to the temple, first went to find the great general of Zhennan, handed the fifth prince to him, and then took brother Jue to find her grandmother and eldest wife.
The eldest wife looked at Brother Jue up and down, and she was relieved when she saw that he looked good, his stature was a bit taller than when he was in the house, and his arms were not thin.
“I said Jiaojiao will take good care of Brother Jue.” The old lady patted the hand of Liu Mingyue who was sitting next to her. Not only was the eldest wife missing her son, she hadn’t seen Liu Mingyue after more than a month. I also miss my eldest granddaughter.
Now that I see that these two children are well, the heart that has been hanging has finally fallen.
The family seldom sat together and chatted for a long time. When the imperial concubine Xuan Liu arrived, Liu Mingyue obviously saw Zhang Youyi’s face stiff.
Yes, no matter how beautiful she is, no matter how luxurious the jewelry she wears, how can she be able to beat the pampered Concubine Liu Guifei with a dress and jewelry?
There were more and more people in the hall, and the atmosphere gradually became lively. Today is the emperor’s birthday banquet after all, and the faces of the officials and family members are full of joy. If there are conflicts on weekdays, they only stare at it, not dare to make trouble at this time.
When all the guests arrived, the concubines were all seated, and the bright yellow figure finally came slowly supporting the queen mother.
Everyone got up, kneeled down and bowed together, shouting long live our emperor and the queen mother.
When the two most distinguished persons in the world came to the top, Concubine Liu and Prince Rong stepped forward and helped the emperor and the queen mother to sit down respectively.
“All the princes are flat.” The emperor has always smiled on his majestic face. He is now in his prime, so celebrating his birthday is a national celebration.
The vocal music began and the banquet opened.
The beautiful ladies of the palace came in with golden butterflies, and the delicacies of the mountains and the sea were served on the table like running water.
The Queen Mother has always liked the concubine De Fei more than the concubine’s bright and flamboyant. Knowing that this birthday banquet was organized by the concubine, she praised her well.
As a result, many people on Prime Minister Zhang’s side were holding their wine glasses and congratulating them.
After halfway through the banquet, dancers and musicians in the palace began to perform in turn, and during halftime, officials would come forward to give gifts to bless the sacred and boundless life.
And Zhang Youyi finally got an opportunity, waited for a dance to complete, and took a Yaoqin to the stage from the hands of a palace clerk who was serving in the Defei Palace behind him.
She learned the piano because Prince Rong Xiqin, so her father found various famous piano masters inside and outside the capital, and taught her how to play the piano. She also happened to have some talents, so she learned well. song.
Of course, he said it was for his Majesty’s birthday, but in fact, he still hopes that his brilliant performance today can win the favor of Prince Rong.
When Prime Minister Zhang saw Zhang Youyi holding Yaoqin on stage, he frowned.
When he set out from home, he didn’t see this daughter with the piano. Could it be that Concubine Dee brought her to her?
It’s just that Zhang Youyi has already held the piano and walked to the center of the banquet, and everyone’s eyes are also on her. Prime Minister Zhang is inconvenient to stop, so she can only watch the changes first.
“Your Majesty, You Yi learned a piece of music some time ago and wants to wish your Majesty a birthday.”
The girl is wearing a sapphire blue jacket today, with golden hair accessories and shiny sapphires between her hair, which is eye-catching.
For a time, it was not only the emperor, but even Prince Rong also divided his eyes.
When Zhang Youyi saw Prince Rong look over, she was overjoyed, put Yaoqin down on the case, and played a good tune with a little more concentration than usual.
She does have some talent in the rhythm of music, and everyone knows that this is the younger sister of Concubine De Fei and the young daughter of Prime Minister Zhang. When the song is over, they are all very enthusiastic about the venue.
“reward!”
The saint will naturally not refute the face of Concubine De Fei’s line today, after all, he will have major announcements later.
It just so happened that Hainan offered a Dendrobium pearl, which was large and round, and some still had a pale golden luster. Girls liked it the most. The saint went to take it and rewarded Zhang Youyi with ten.
For a while, the banquet was full of envy, and one after another girls, even teenagers, got permission from the family to show one or two things in the middle of the banquet.
Prime Minister Zhang heaved a sigh of relief. Although he didn’t like his daughter’s behavior, with those who followed, it would not seem that Zhang Youyi was too eye-catching.
Sheng Shang also acted very generously today. After all, the few who came up to perform were all children of the favored family. According to the degree of amazing performance, he more or less rewarded Nan Zhu one by one.
Soon there was less than half a Hu left.
“Your Majesty, you can leave some for your concubines.” Liu Guifei smiled and pulled the emperor’s sleeves. She was actually watching the emperor’s face. If she continued to reward her, she would probably not have a single piece of this Dendrobium pearl left. The banquet didn’t know when it would be delayed until it ended.
“Okay, since the imperial concubine wants it, the rest will be left to the imperial concubine.” The saint has always petted the imperial concubine, and even the concubines under the table are jealous, but there is no way.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Youyi spoke again at this time, “The imperial concubine took the remaining Nanzhu, Miss Liu, you might as well perform on stage as well, and you will be celebrating your majesty’s birthday on behalf of the imperial concubine.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Concubine Liu Gui’s expression obviously cooled down.
As long as she hadn’t spoken, she was held by the emperor’s hand. Concubine Liu Gui knew what he meant. Although she was dissatisfied in her heart, she knew how to measure, and her smile returned to her eyes in an instant: “Okay, since it is the birthday feast of the holy, the palace can’t take this South Pearl for nothing. Bright moon, You will show it on the court and wish your Majesty a longevity and a longevity for this palace.”
