On New Year's Eve, high-ranking ministers in the court need to bring their family members into the palace to celebrate the new year with Emperor Yongye. .
In the early morning of the New Year's Eve, Su Kun and Yuan Shi took Su Yiran and Su Yunchu to the palace to attend a banquet. In previous years, although Su Yiyan was a concubine, because of her well-behaved and obedient appearance, Su Kun had more Therefore, during the Chinese New Year, Su Kun had to take her to the palace banquet, but this year, Su Yiyan had such a thing, and the original mood was not stable, so this time, Su Kun Kun would never take Su Yiyan with him no matter what, and Su Yiyan didn't cry or make trouble, but seemed much quieter, except for that day, Xu didn't know that he was pregnant and didn't pay attention to moving the baby In addition to being angry, in the days to come, she would feel at ease raising her baby. If Su Yunchu hadn't hated the baby in her womb the day she saw her, she would really think that Su Yiyan really valued the baby in her womb.
Therefore, this time I went out without Su Yiyan, but with Su Xinyue. In previous years, Su Xinyue was not qualified to attend the palace banquet. She has a lower status and is unlikely to please Su Kun.
But seeing that Su Xinyue is now twelve, and Su Yiyan has reached this point, why not train Su Xinyue earlier.
When a crowd of people gathered in the hall to set off, Su Kun did not forget to remind a few more words, "After entering the palace, you must keep your own place, don't walk around, don't talk nonsense, the palace is no better than the mansion, and everything should not be reckless, so as not to offend the saint." angry."
"Yes..." Su Yunchu and the others listened naturally.
But Su Kun seemed to be particularly worried, and then said to Su Xinyue, "Xinyue is also entering the palace for the first time to participate in a palace banquet. When the time comes, don't talk too much, just learn how your big sister treats people."
It was rare for Su Xinyue to attend the banquet. Although she was happy in her heart, she still had some unknown uneasiness, "Yes, father, please rest assured, Xinyue has made a note of it."
Only then did Su Kun nod his head, and then said to Su Yunchu, "You must not be rash when entering the palace this time." He probably remembered what happened when Su Yunchu entered the palace to participate in the flower viewing party last time. The daughter who can't help but is a little worried after all.
Su Yunchu nodded without explaining.
Su Kun seemed to sigh slightly in his heart, and then said to Yuan Shi beside him, "Let's go."
Only then did the five head towards the carriage outside the mansion. Su Kun was sitting in the same carriage with Yuanshi, Su Yiran, Su Yunchu and Su Xinyue were riding in the same carriage.
Today's palace banquet is still the same as in previous years, and it is held in the main hall of Yiyang Palace. When the people from Zhiyuan Hou's Mansion arrived, the main hall was already full of people, and there were almost no empty seats. Of course, the order of the seats is According to the people from each government and each family, there is no strict division of male and female seats. Although people have already come, the real palace banquet will start after the Si hour. Now, it is just a little bit past the Chen hour. However, everyone was active in the hall or in the garden outside.
When Su Yiran arrived, he had already been dragged away by the ladies of several families. Su Yunchu surrounded the entire hall, but he couldn't see the familiar figure, so he couldn't help shaking his head for himself, thinking that with his temperament, he would definitely not come early, even if he came Well, it should be at Emperor Yongye's place. Zhao Zhiyun couldn't be found, and Feng Bingling hadn't come yet, so Su Yunchu just dragged Su Xinyue out of the main hall, and walked casually in the imperial garden outside the main hall.
Su Xinyue seemed very happy. After all, it was the first time she came to the palace to participate in such a banquet, and the novelty of the things around her was even more vivid on her face. However, because of some awe and fear of making mistakes, she didn't dare to really walking around at will.
But I couldn't resist my curiosity about the palace, "Third Sister, can we walk around this garden again? I think this garden is so beautiful!"
"Of course it's fine, as long as you don't run around." Su Yunchu only smiled lightly.
Su Xinyue exclaimed, but Su Yunchu looked at the children who were the same age as Su Xinyue in the garden, and pointed to the other side, "Xinyue can go get along with them, and it would be good to make some friends."
But Su Xinyue was obviously a little timid, and instead grabbed a corner of Su Yunchu's sleeve, "Will they be willing to make friends with me?"
Su Yunchu understands that Su Xinyue is afraid of socializing because she doesn't go out of the house very often, but she has to take this step after all, and she can't keep Su Xinyue by her side every time she comes out, "Naturally, if you get along well with them , naturally no one will hate you."
Although Mrs. Sun is not good to Su Yunchu, Su Yunchu also knows that Mrs. Sun is the most scheming person, and all the jealousy and unwillingness are on his face. The Hou Mansion is safe and sound, probably because Xinyue is not a man, besides, Su Xinyue was not affected much by Sun's meanness, therefore, Su Yunchu does not have many descendants when he is away from home, so he is still willing to take care of her some. It's just that she can't keep Su Xinyue by her side every time she goes out.
Looking at Su Xinyue's fearful eyes, Su Yunchu smiled lightly, with some warmth and reassurance in his smile, "Xinyue just try it and you'll know."
As if she was really encouraged, Su Xinyue finally took the first step and walked towards those girls of the same age. Those children, although they are the daughters of rich families, but looking at their clothes, they are not the daughters of the first wife. Su Yunchu understands that the first daughters and concubines are inferior in this world. Generally, the first daughters and the second daughters in the family rarely communicate with each other, and they are the social circles. , It is also the daughter of the prostitute and the daughter of the concubine, and the daughter of the concubine and the concubine. Therefore, Su Xinyue's arrival was quickly accepted by them. Besides, although Su Xinyue was said to be a concubine, she was born in Zhiyuanhou's mansion, which was much better than most of them.
Su Yunchu looked at the scene in the distance, with a slight smile on his lips.
