MTL - I Built a Territory in Ancient Times-Chapter 122 Festival
, only the prince, the prince, and the concubines and princesses in a certain position were present. Just like this, the scale of the family banquet was not small.
There are court musicians playing elegant music, and there are palace dancers singing and dancing. Everyone has already taken their seats, and the emperor on the main table has not yet arrived.
The concubines and concubines were at a separate table, and each of them dressed themselves up brightly. Concubine Hui looked around, but neither the prince nor Duan was in sight.
Everyone knew that tonight's dinner was held for King Duan, who was still in the palace before, and the emperor spoiled this silly son. Now that he finally came back, the emperor was very happy and held a banquet for him to wash away the dust. It can be seen that even if Ming Yu is now in Liangzhou, the holy family is still the same. Think about which king had such special treatment in the past?
If some people are jealous, they will naturally be sour. Concubine Shu and Concubine Hui looked at each other. Concubine Shu twisted her handkerchief and covered her mouth with a chuckle, "Speaking of which, Duan Wang has been sealed for so long, and it is rare to come back. Why is the family banquet so late?"
Concubine Hui showed satisfaction. Concubine Shu had always been close to her, and it was best to push Concubine Shu out.
"What kind of temperament King Duan is, it's not that my sister doesn't know. She has always been willful. His Majesty spoiled him, but he didn't go with him."
"Hey! How much vinegar did Sister Hui drink? It's so sour? King Duan's temperament is so innocent, it's understandable for His Majesty to pamper her. If your sister can do the same, if you want to come to His Majesty's harem to pamper her alone, we won't have anything to do with us. Yes." Concubine Zhen smiled and teased.
When Concubine Hui heard this, she had already lost her face. This Concubine Zhen was against her everywhere. It was really **** good, "Concubine Zhen, what do you mean by that?"
Concubine Zhen caressed her sideburns casually, not afraid of her, "It's not interesting, Sister Hui can't even make jokes, right?"
"You..." Concubine Hui was about to have a seizure, but was stopped by Concubine Shu beside her. She remembered the scene at the moment, but it was difficult to clean up when something happened, and finally she had to calm down and stop paying attention to Concubine Zhen.
The atmosphere was a little embarrassing for a while, and someone hurriedly smiled and said, "It's still early, and Duan Wang has just returned. Your Majesty has been thinking about it for so long, and he will definitely leave Duan Wang to talk more."
Concubine Zhen smiled proudly, didn't Concubine Hui rely on her having two sons to support her? snort! It's really embarrassing to fight with her when the old pearl is yellow.
Speaking of which, if it wasn't for Concubine Hui, how could she have had a miscarriage back then, and her son would be His Majesty's youngest son, a little prince who gathered thousands of doted on him. It's a pity that I didn't know why I had a miscarriage within a few months. In those years, she had been secretly investigating, and finally she found a clue. Concubine Hui probably thought that what she did at the beginning was unknowingly, right? Unexpectedly, she showed her feet and was found by her.
Over the years, because of the sullenness in her heart, she has always been against Concubine Hui, and she is happy to do anything that can make Concubine Hui feel sullen. Didn't Concubine Hui always want her son to be in the top position? King Duan was a thorn in the eye of the prince, so she just wanted to speak for them.
"That's right, King Duan is highly valued by His Majesty. When he came back this time, His Majesty must have cared and cared for him. I can't finish talking about everyday things in a while." Concubine Zhen agreed with a smile, chatting and laughing with others, for a while. There was peace and harmony, only Concubine Hui squeezed the handkerchief in her hand with an unsightly face.
After a while, the sound of Sizhu made a loud noise, and everyone knew that the emperor was about to come out, and everyone stood up to greet him.
Sure enough, the emperor strode from the back of the palace, followed by the prince and Ming Yu.
Seeing the prince and Ming Yu who were following behind the emperor talking and laughing, with a happy face, the third prince Mingtao's face was gloomy.
This time, Ming Yu went to Beijing and brought back a lot of goods from the Western Regions. The momentum they made last time is still in front of us, and this time I am afraid it will be even worse than last time.
hateful! Mingtao secretly hated in his heart. Seeing that he could not participate in their business, he could only find another way. He has already found the manpower and wants to form a caravan by himself. There is no reason for the prince to take advantage of such a profitable business.
Since a fool like Ming Yu can do it, why didn't he follow the lessons and let the caravan go to the Western Regions to buy and sell on his own? He couldn't believe how difficult it was. In this way, it's good to be able to resist the prince's gang, maybe the father emperor sees him doing well, and he will win the father's favor.
Thinking of this, his face gradually cleared up, hum! And let you be proud first, when his caravan is set up and set off, there will be nothing to do with the prince.
The emperor has already taken his seat, and the drink and food are served in turn in the orderly shuttle of the palace attendants.
When the dishes were ready, the emperor looked at Ming Yu. Ming Yu smiled, stretched out his hand and patted it, and the golden silk glazed cups held in the hands of two palace servants stepped forward and gently placed them in front of the emperor and the prince.
Everyone was stunned, what is this, why only the emperor and the prince have it?
Ming Yu stood up, opened the lid for the emperor, and saw a small golden-yellow round cake lying in the cup. As soon as the lid was opened, a fresh and sweet fragrance spread out, which made people feel hungry just seeing it. Great vibration.
"Father, this is the golden jade cake that Erchen specially made for you. The main material is corn, mixed with yam and honey. You can try it." Ming Yu looked eager to taste whether it was delicious or not. The emperor couldn't help laughing.
Everyone who was sitting heard Ming Yu's words, and then everyone understood that this was actually made by Duan Wang himself, golden jade cake? Made of corn? What it is? None of the people sitting had heard the name.
Could it be that this is another good thing that Ming Yu brought back from the Western Regions? Speaking of which, Ming Yu also donated watermelons from the Western Regions, and many of the people sitting there ate some of them. Unfortunately, the watermelon is very rare. , I don't know if Duanwang has something called watermelon in Beijing this time. Many people still miss the sweet and crisp taste.
This thing called Golden Jade Cake looks full of color, flavor and taste, and it is also a top-quality food.
The emperor picked up the chopsticks, and was about to take a piece to taste when he heard a voice: "Hold on!"
Looking at the sound, the third prince Mingtao stood up, "The father and the emperor's daughter is precious, the origin of this thing is unknown, how can you rashly enter it?"
He looked worried, as if he really thought about His Majesty the Emperor.
There are rules for the emperor's meal. Someone must try it, and only after it is safe to enter it, and each food must not exceed three chopsticks. Every time he saw the emperor eating, Ming Yu shouted that he couldn't bear it, and even had to be restricted from eating a meal, it was just too hard.
Ming Tao understood what Ming Yu meant, he glanced at him with a half-smile but turned to the emperor and said with a smile: "Father, look at this, my son has worked so hard to get a taste of it. The royal father is considerate and considerate of the sons and ministers, and shares them with the sons and ministers."
After Ming Yu finished speaking, he quickly took a piece of tortilla from the emperor's plate, threw it into his mouth, smacked his mouth, and ate it very sweetly.
His skinless and faceless appearance made the emperor dumbfounded. Are there any rules? How could this trial be done by the prince, what is the personal **** for?
The **** on the side hurriedly knelt down and pleaded guilty, Ming Yu waved his hand, pulled the emperor's sleeve, and said with a shy face: "Father, this is a treasure, and my son is not willing to waste it for others to eat."
The emperor glared at him, he didn't know Ming Yu's careful thinking, he brought this new thing into the palace and made it himself. He made such a move in front of the public with a clear conscience. The purpose is to Gagging some people's mouths.
"As a prince, look at you, where are the rules?" Although there was a scolding in the sentence, the tone was helpless to him.
The emperor was still relieved, but this son was too rogue.
Ming Ye smoothed things out on the side, "Father, the fourteenth brother also has a pure heart." After speaking, he winked at Ming Yu, "Fourteenth brother, too, you are fighting with the father for what to eat, I'm not alone here. There's one more, if you want to eat it, just take it."
Ming Yu chuckled, "This is specially brought to you to taste, it's not much at all. But it's still sweeter in the father's cup."
This sentence made the emperor laugh out loud, this stupid son, only this mouth can be lovable.
Mingtao was very angry, and co-authored the whole family banquet. The three of you, father and son, are one family.
"Fourteenth brother, just have fun, that is, you are a bastard, and you can let the father be generous." The eldest princess Anping laughed and joked, "If you don't sit down, do you still need to start this dinner? The father , My daughter didn't even eat lunch because of this dinner."
The eldest princess Anping is the eldest daughter of the emperor. Although she is not from the Empress Yuan, Princess Anping is the first daughter of the emperor, but she is very fond of the emperor. In the palace, Princess Anping also has a certain status among other princes and princesses.
What she said was also helping Ming Yu. Last time, she liked the items from the Western Regions that Ming Yu asked the prince to give her. She was short-handed and short-handed. Now she can help if she can. not.
In fact, apart from those who are interested, there is no deep hatred with Ming Yu. They also hope to have a good relationship with Ming Yu, and they will be able to get some benefits at that time.
Ming Yu stuck out his tongue and quickly sat back to his seat.
The emperor smiled and waved his hands, raised his chopsticks, "It's alright, it's time for the banquet."
For a while, the sound of silk and bamboo was pleasant to the ear, and the dancing postures were graceful and pleasing to the eyes. Ming Yu enjoyed it while eating, and it was very festive for the Spring Festival Gala to eat the New Year's Eve dinner and watch the Spring Festival Gala performance.
Everyone in the room
