Chapter 35: Family banquet

My family was so frustrated.

"Relax, the emperor is not such a narrow-minded person." Jiang Mo said with certainty. Although he did not have much contact with the emperor, he also knew that he was a diligent and good emperor who was careful and considerate in his actions. "Your Majesty, If you really plan to do so, you won't be allowed to stay in the palace for one night. Can't you just have someone carry you back on the spot?" The emperor

invited the emperor twice. Although he did not favor them, he still allowed them to stay in the palace. He stayed all night and was sent back on a horse chariot the next day. On the one hand, it was to reassure the Queen Mother, but on the other hand, they did not want to embarrass the two of them, so no one in the palace knew about the fact that they had failed to accept the favor.

When Liang Yi heard this, he suddenly became enlightened and said, "Thank you, Brother Du, for the advice!"

He was in the game before, and he was only worried that his performance would offend the emperor's disgust and displeasure, but he never thought about the emperor's approach. Helping him cover it up...

Jiang Mo felt relieved when he saw that he had figured it out. The two chatted for a while, and their relationship became much closer.

The day of the family dinner came soon, and it was held in Yiyuan. It is the season of spring and flowers are blooming, and the flowers in the Yi Garden are so beautiful. While everyone was enjoying the banquet, they could also look at the surrounding scenery, which was really unique.

The top positions naturally belong to the Queen Mother and the Emperor. Jiang Mo and Shi Jieyu sat on the left and right sides of the head, and the other concubines took their seats in order according to their position. Coincidentally, Jiang Mo was sitting just two or three steps below the emperor. The emperor could see him as long as he lowered his head.

This arrangement was naturally made by everyone after observing the holy will. Shi Jieyu, who was sitting under the Queen Mother and five or six meters away from the emperor, was very angry, but she did not dare to show it on her face, lest she get spoiled. The interest of the emperor and the queen mother.

Everyone attending the family banquet today was all dressed up, especially Shi Jieyu, who was already good-looking. She deliberately dressed up today, wearing a pomegranate red pleated skirt, and she was as gorgeous as a fairy in a flower. Jiang Mo is a man and cannot wear too bright colors like women. Today he only wore a blue robe with silver piping, which looked quite dignified. Liang Yi is no longer as distracted as he was a few days ago. Today he is in much better spirits. He is wearing a moon-white thin shirt with a sky-blue undershirt underneath. The fresh and elegant color complements his elegant temperament.

Zhang Qian was sitting at the back of the table, wearing a lavender skirt, a bun with a hanging cloud bun, and a golden peacock walking stick on her head. She looked very fresh among the concubines with gorgeous makeup. It's elegant and somewhat scheming.

"Okay, let's have a feast."

Following the Queen Mother's order, the palace people filed in with various dishes and placed the dishes one after another in front of everyone. The emperor didn't like to talk much, and he had no intention of greeting them. Everyone started eating while the food was still hot, and it seemed like they were just here for a banquet.

Today's braised fish belly was especially tender. Jiang Mo couldn't help but finish the whole plate and even asked Meng Jiao in a low voice if there was any left, which made Meng Jiao extremely embarrassed.

Zhao Hong was not far away. After hearing this, he asked Fang Cheng to send the plate of fish belly in front of him to Jiang Mo. Jiang Mo glanced at Zhao Hong with complicated eyes. Naturally, he couldn't refuse the dishes given by the emperor, so he had no choice but to accept them.

Except for the Queen Mother and Shi Jieyu, not many people noticed the small interaction between the two. The Queen Mother shook her head in amusement, but Shi Jieyu's eyes lit up.

After everyone had eaten for a while, the Queen Mother signaled the concubines to start performing. A large open space was deliberately left in the middle of the table to give them room to perform.

"My concubine Shi Ru, I present a song to the emperor." The first one to perform was naturally Shi Jieyu. Her talent in Beijing was indeed well-deserved. Her piano skills were exquisite and her sound was beautiful. Even Jiang People with different musical styles like Mo also found it quite interesting.

After playing the song, Shi Jieyu looked happily in the direction of the emperor, but saw that his face had no expression at all, and she couldn't help but feel disappointed.

"Okay! I have always heard that Shi Shangshu's daughter has superb piano skills. When I saw it today, she really lived up to her reputation. I wish you a pair of jades!" Compared to the emperor's indifferent expression, the Queen Mother was more engaged, perhaps because she had been in the palace for a long time. It's not so lively anymore.

"My concubine Ji Fangfei, please sing a song for the Emperor."

One by one, the beauties came forward to perform, and finally it was Zhang Qian's turn.

Jiang Mo also cheered up. Today is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If Zhang Qian wants to get close to the emperor, she must leave a deep impression on the emperor today, but I don't know what kind of methods she will use?

It's really a little bit of expectation.
