The entire Huaying Hall was brightly lit, and well-trained palace personnel shuttled through it, and the internal supervisors also stood by the tables, waiting carefully.
Liu Qiqiao and Shen Xiurong are sitting here, their eyes are not enough.
On the top of the hall, there are huge night pearls for lighting, and on the pillars beside the hall, there are various palace lamps. Under their shining, the whole hall is so bright and shining.
And the pillars of the main hall are all century-old agarwood. On the top of the main hall, there is a huge algae well and a huge dragon head, embossed so hideous and majestic. On the main hall, the screens on all sides are all fourfold, Mei Lan Bamboo and chrysanthemum, spring, summer, autumn and winter, etc., no two are the same, and the reliefs on many screens are even more amazing. They are all inlaid with treasures. The screens are embedded with various precious materials, emerald, Agate, turquoise, coral, etc. Since Liu Qiqiao married into the Shen Mansion, Liu Qiqiao's vision has opened a lot, but he still hasn't seen it. In this way, all the precious wealth is used together, and it is indeed a royal family.
There is no place without luxury, no place without beauty, the hall is big, the windows are wide open, and the hanging moon-white window screens are gently swaying in the night breeze.
This Huaying Hall was specially used for banquets in the palace. In the hollow hall in the main hall, the grid doors in the side halls on both sides were wide open, and there was a layer of bead curtains in the side halls to separate the male ministers outside.
The female family members are here, the ladies and the ladies, gather together, the powder is fragrant, what they say is nothing more than the son and the red makeup, but the biggest and hottest topic today is the true purpose of the banquet. Many women are all together. Said that Princess Chun had said that today's night banquet was held for the twelfth prince Ling Tianmo to choose the prince and concubine.
This is really exciting. Just when people were whispering and talking in low voices, they heard someone preaching and the emperor arrived.
All of a sudden, it was even more lively.
Liu Qiqiao and Shen Xiurong were still looking at the people walking over there with excitement and excitement. Zhengshou couldn't see where the emperor's upper body was. However, the people around them all stood up suddenly, suddenly, As if she could get a unified password, she knelt down, Liu Qiqiao was startled, and there was a black human head around her. She woke up, hurriedly pulled Shen Xiurong, and knelt down in a hurry.
Shen Xiurong was quite disapproving. Of course, she also knew the majesty of the emperor, but it wasn't that such a person hadn't come in yet, so she would kneel in fear.
She stalked her neck until Liu Qiqiao kept tugging at her and calling her name softly, Xiurong, hurry up, Xiurong!
She didn't want to make Liu Qiqiao worry, so she also lowered her head.
Hearing the pedestrian in his ears, he walked in slowly from a distance.
He walked all the way to the main hall in the middle, but Xiurong couldn’t see the emperor, she was a little annoyed, she turned her head to see, and was about to see what happened, but Liu Qiqiao pulled her arm and pulled her head vigorously. , Leaning low on the ground, too annoying, people have to look at the emperor
The emperor sat down, and these people all bowed down.
The emperor flattened his body, and everyone stood up in unison.
Shen Xiurong got up a little anxiously, she rarely knelt down, and there was a sound of clothing rubbing around.
Everyone stood there, listening to the etiquette eunuchs, talking and singing a lot of praises to the emperor.
Shen Xiurong glanced at Liu Qiqiao: "Isn't this celebrating the birthday of the twelfth prince?" She didn't say aloud, just verbally said.
Liu Qiqiao shook his head. First, he didn't know, and the other reminded Shen Xiurong not to act rashly.
The eunuch finally finished speaking. The emperor didn’t say anything. Liu Qiqiao thought. They didn’t know what the emperor was like. They were sitting on the sidelines and could only see a bright yellow figure in the main hall, but there were a lot of people around them. Blocking them, leaning on their side, accompanied by the emperor, should be Princess Chun. She wore a long silk dress with a sauce-purple color, and a water-pink Xia draped on her arms. The hair is a tall bun with flowing clouds, and the hairpin is so dazzling and dazzling. The most favored princess at that time has never been introverted, and she is just like this.
Liu Qiqiao retracted his gaze and searched in the hall, but did not see Lin Pingmo's figure, so she concluded that the twelve prince Ling Tianmo should be on the side of the emperor, who happened to be invisible. This made her a little more relaxed, and it was too sad to face him.
At this moment, the emperor's eunuch announced another news that shocked everyone.
Liu Qiqiao had just been in a trance, and did not hear clearly, so he turned his head and asked Shen Xiurong.
Shen Xiurong was a little daunted, her eyes turned away, not looking at Liu Qiqiao, she just said, "It seems to be giving the twelve princes the prince, giving the title to Qin..."
King Qin
Liu Qiqiao was startled...
This is also the greatest reward, besides King Ye, this dynasty Lin Pingmo is the second prince who has won the title.
Liu Qiqiao didn't think there was anything, but other people in the hall didn't think so. Those princes and ministers who were still a little hesitant, and the ladies of the adults, now smelled a little different.
A prince who has just been found, who has no merit or merit, wants to be a prince. Moreover, a few days ago, his mother and concubine had just been crowned the queen, and his mother clan was rehabilitated. These signs indicate that , The emperor didn't just want to make a prince.
The people who received this kind of information suddenly became more effective in expressing themselves.
At the table between Liu Qiqiao and Shen Xiurong, there were at least two ministerial ladies, and they started talking in a low voice.
What they said, Liu Qiqiao and Shen Xiurong had already heard some of them just now, but now they are more enthusiastic.
Shen Xiurong's face has been pretending to be nonchalant, maintaining the mentality that she is just a spectator and a passerby.
She even made a grimace at Liu Qiqiao to show that her expression was boring. She didn't even care about or participate in the gossip of these women.
At this moment, I finally heard a slightly old-fashioned voice. As soon as he uttered it, Liu Qiqiao and Shen Xiurong guessed it out without introducing them. This is the emperor's voice.
Yes, although it is a little sick and old, the voice contains the inherent solipsism, so obvious, and even more obvious, the majesty, which makes people consciously surrender when they hear it.
"Mo Er, where is your benefactor?" the emperor asked again.
Both Liu Qiqiao and Shen Xiurong were stunned, and there was a little unbelievable in their eyes, especially Liu Qiqiao. She had some guesses. The emperor said to Lin Pingmo, is he not the benefactor he said
Sure enough, Lin Pingmo’s voice rang, he was in this hall, but Liu Qiqiao couldn’t see him, but his voice came so clearly, it was him, not him, the voice was his. But that voice was completely different from the voice of Lin Pingmo, who had just stood with Liu Qiqiao.
The Lin Pingmo Liu Qiqiao knew was aloof and unruly. His voice was always indifferent, with few ups and downs.
Now the voice was calm, but it was more official. When he spoke, Liu Qiqiao saw that the ladies on the opposite side had red cheeks with excitement, their necks stretched out, and they watched vigorously in the direction of the voice. .
Lin Pingmo said, "Yes, she is here!"
While he was talking, two palace members walked towards the side hall on Liu Qiqiao’s side under Princess Chun’s instructions, stood there, and asked softly: "Excuse me, which one is Liu Qi What a coincidence!"
After warming his hands, Liu Qiqiao turned his head to look over. It was Shen Xiurong's quiet and encouraging smile, as well as the two words gently spit out in his mouth: "Don't be afraid!"
Liu Qiqiao nodded. It is impossible not to be afraid. People always have a natural awe and true yearning for the supreme holders of power.
Liu Qiqiao went out, happily lowering himself: "It's me!"
"Please come with me, the emperor wants to see you!" said one of the two court ladies.
Liu Qiqiao nodded and walked slowly in the eyes of these women, she could feel those eyes that fell on her body, the jealousy, envy and yearning in those eyes.
Liu Qiqiao walked out of the side hall. The hall on this side was absolutely different from the colorful colors inside. The women were together, and they were bright and red, and there was more murderous air in this main hall.
Black, azure blue, dark gray, various dark robes, plus a solemn look.
Liu Qiqiao walked over and stood in front of the emperor. She did not dare to look directly at the emperor’s face, but her eyelids were slightly lowered, and then she knelt down: "Liu Qiqiao, a citizen girl, see the emperor, long live the emperor!"
"Okay, let's be flat!" The emperor said, these words are relatively short, and they don't seem to be sick at all to him.
But when he said the following, he stopped for several times.
"Listen to Princess Chun, you turned out to be Shen Yunong's outside room, how many aunts are here?" the emperor asked.
Princess Chun said on the side: "Yes, she is Shen Yunong's seventh aunt Liu Qiqiao!"
The emperor smiled softly and nodded: "It's the seventh one!" After he finished speaking, he gave his daughter a meaningful look, and his eyes seemed to say: "Look, fortunately I didn't let you After marrying, you said, you are a dignified princess, you can bear it, he has married so many aunts, it is almost a harem..."
Liu Qiqiao never looked up. She knew that Ling's family had always been rebellious and very impulsive, so she just stood on one side, trying to understand and pretend to be confused.
"Shen Yunong did not marry wrong this time. He married a righteous person!" said the emperor. "You saved my prince. I want to reward you, but I don't know what to reward. What do you want? I will satisfy you if you want, but don’t get it!"
The emperor's words were neither high nor low, but they were heard in their hearts by the people below.
It is said to save one life and win the seventh-level Buddha statue. What Liu Qiqiao saved, where is a life, is a gold medal for avoiding death, a sword of grace, the prosperity and glory of the first life, and a possible power. And fortune.
Liu Qiqiao went down gently: "Back to the emperor, you have already rewarded the people's daughters. Save the twelve princes out of instinct, and the twelve princes have blessings and body protection to avoid disasters. Dare to take credit..."
The emperor coughed a few times, and Liu Qiqiao was too busy to stop talking, waiting for the emperor to finish coughing, and then say her words, but when the emperor finished coughing, he waved his hand: "If you are beautiful, you don't need to say it, I just know. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to find my son. You are gracious and meritorious to me. If you don't want a reward, I will write down this account first, and I will wait for you to get it anytime!"
After listening to him, Liu Qiqiao relaxed and thought, the emperor was also a man of flesh and blood. It was really rare for him to say these things!
