Chapter 355 Dinner
Li Sheng said with a smile: "What the lord said is easy to say, these are people in the palace, and their wealth must be innocent, but if the lord wants to know, the slave will check it for you, but the matter of slavery, you still have to worry about it." The prince needs to come to the House of Internal Affairs to handle it in person next time, and the adults in charge of this are not here today."

"That's okay. Anyway, I will enter the palace every day. It's nothing more than running around. It's not that the king and the princess don't trust people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. They just want to know. Since the father-in-law said so, the king will come back in a few days. .” After Feng Yong finished speaking, she left.

Feng Yong didn't enter the banquet until the evening banquet started.

Feng Yong didn't like to attend such banquets. It was meaningless and just flattering.

Bailan is wearing an antique brocade satin dress with rose pink dark patterns, a lotus flower skirt that stretches to the floor, and a blue soft satin with yellow rose pattern with pinched teeth.Long and smooth hair, a chic and chic bun, twisted silk lotus copper head flowers are inserted in the lightly curled temples, a tourmaline Buddha bead bracelet is worn on the creamy skin, and a peacock pattern is tied around the waist On the waist, there is a hang satin sachet embroidered with double happiness patterns, and on the feet are butterfly shoes, making the whole person look charming and charming.

Feng Yong walked over, sat down next to her, and asked in a low voice: "Didn't I let you wear the gorgeous outfit that the emperor rewarded you last time?"

"That will conflict with the Queen's color. You will know later. Fortunately, I brought other clothes, otherwise something would have happened. Didn't you see that no one dared to wear red at the banquet today? Not even the imperial concubine. Wear it." Bai Lan whispered.

Feng Yong looked carefully. Xia Qinghe, who was opposite the banquet, was wearing a primrose color pinch-tooth sweetheart neckline narrow-sleeved gauze shirt, a floor-length ocher embroidered butterfly skirt, and a brown-colored Ruyi-patterned cicada organza. Brocade.She has oily and smooth hair, a chic and elegant black bun, red coral flowers in her lightly curled temples, a red gold filigree bracelet on her creamy-skinned hand, and a Ruyi tassel belt around her waist. Hanging a sachet embroidered with white cranes spreading their wings, she was wearing Bingdi lotus shoes, which looked somewhat similar to Bai Lan's style.

Feng Yong said with a smile: "Your attire today is similar to the imperial concubine's."

"That can't be helped. On the big day, how can you dress too plainly? You see, even those wives are dressed festively." Bai Lan said in a low voice with a calm expression on her face.

Feng Yong nodded: "Yes, they are all relatively bright colors, and they look festive."

At this time, Fang Yixie brought Xia Qingmu in. Xia Qingmu had a straight-collared skirt with an indigo blue cut-out rhododendron and azalea antique satin shirt, and an amber skirt with pinched teeth and multicolored flowers and plants that stretched across the floor. Embroidered rhododendron with folded branches and plain Hangzhou silk.She has black and shiny black hair, and her head is coquettish and unique in auspicious cloud buns. In the lightly curled temples, there are long-lived and rich gems and flower hairpins. On her creamy skin, she wears a green jade bracelet, and her waist is tied with a five-color belt with bowknots and long tassels. , with a hang satin purse embroidered with double happiness pattern hanging on it, and cuckoo soft satin embroidered shoes on her feet, which looked even brighter and more charming. All the eyes at the banquet were attracted by her.

Feng Yong smiled, and said in a low voice: "I didn't expect the auspicious clothes bestowed by the emperor to match Xia Qingmu quite well. It seems that Qin Siyi can handle things."

"Is this a temporary arrangement? I thought Mr. Fang did it." Bai Lan was a little surprised.

Feng Yong smiled: "I mentioned a few words in the morning, and the emperor made arrangements. It can be seen that the emperor also knows something about that poem, otherwise he would not be in such a hurry and ask Mr. Fang to bring someone here."

"Fortunately, Qingmu has already fixed it, otherwise something will happen." Bai Lan said lightly.

Feng Yong nodded: "Well, but right now, there may be no accidents, just see what Mu did tonight."

At this time, Yan Ningzi appeared with her maid. Yan Ningzi was wearing a long gauze shirt with golden branches, thread and leaves intertwined with satin and sweetheart neckline, a light purple skirt with pinched teeth and a rose flower magnolia border, and a tulle with embroidered vase patterns. Plain satin.Glossy black hair, head tied in a chic high bun like a cloud, in the lightly curled temples is inserted a life-prolonging ceramic hair flower, on a hand with creamy skin is a red gold ring wrapped with silk and inlaid with three-color gemstones, tied at the waist On the flashing green double-ring four-fold Ruyi palace sash, a lotus purse embroidered with silver thread is hung on it, and the patterned thin-soled boots are worn on her feet, which seems to be in line with her temperament.

He Jianning appeared behind him, wearing an autumn-colored butterfly and grape-faced placket, a moon skirt with colorful phoenix patterns that dragged the floor, and a golden-yellow Han Ren embroidered smoke gauze cloth.She has thick black hair, a coquettish and chic high bun, and a carved phoenix tail Huasheng is inserted into the lightly curled temples. On her creamy skin, she wears a bracelet of red gold and a drop of oil, and a soft silk belt around her waist. There was a plain sachet hanging on it, and the gold thread embroidered double-petal lotus brocade two-color hibiscus boots on her feet. It looked plain and chic, but those bright colors were more suitable for Jianning.

Thinking about today's empress ceremony, and Jian Ning didn't dare to dress like that, that's why I wanted to laugh.

At this time, Wei Huaqing appeared with Qin Wanyi. Qin Wanyi was wearing a dark-colored background embroidered with gold-woven twig patterns, raccoon brocade cross-collared narrow-sleeve beige, a red pinched satin skirt that stretched across the floor, and an embroidered and bordered rose flower thin skirt. Yarn everywhere gold.Soft blue silk, coquettish and unique lingyun bun, red agate golden phoenix stepper inserted in the lightly curled temples, with a red peony palace flower, an agate bracelet on her creamy skin, waist It is tied with a half-moon water wavy silk sash, on which is hung a satin sachet embroidered with double happiness patterns, and red embroidered gold peony embroidered shoes on the feet. The whole person looks like a mother in the world.

With Wei Huaqing's black and red clothes, it looks like a perfect match. In the morning, Wei Huaqing's black robe was just an ordinary black robe, but now he has changed into a black robe with golden dragon embroidered on the bottom, and it looks very coordinated with the red undershirt.

When Wei Huaqing and Qin Wanyi took their seats, everyone stood up and saluted them, feeling like they were shouting long live.

At the beginning of the dinner, Wei Huaqing talked nonsense first, and then let everyone watch the show.

At this time, Xia Qinghe left his position suddenly. Xia Qingmu followed after seeing this, Bai Lan thought about it, and went out too.

At this time, Feng Yong could clearly see that Wei Huaqing looked at the two people who left with something incomprehensible in his eyes.

Sure enough, not long after, a court lady next to Wei Huaqing went out, and not long after, she came back, whispered a few words beside Wei Huaqing, and Wei Hua asked her to step down.

After a while, Bai Lan came back, Feng Yong hurriedly said in a low voice: "What happened just now? It's inconvenient to speak in the palace."

"I know. I'm afraid they don't understand this truth, so I followed up to remind them. I didn't expect that the imperial concubine and the imperial concubine just went back to the palace with a headache, and Mrs. Fang just went out to get some air from the stuffy banquet. I took a look and walked together for a while, and then came back first. It is." Bai Lan said with a smile.

Feng Yong nodded: "Fortunately, I thought."

"It's okay. Everyone knows that it's inconvenient to be in the palace." Bai Lan said lightly.

At this time, the song and dance performance was temporarily suspended. Seeing Xia Qingmu return to his seat, Wei Huaqing said with a smile, "This is Fang Yixie's fiancée. She really looks fresh and refined. I don't know if she just went out to a song and dance performance." Isn't it pretty?"

Xia Qingmu got up and saluted: "The daughter of the people, Xia Qingmu, has visited the emperor, and may the emperor live forever. The daughter of the people is not feeling well, and the dinner was a bit stuffy, so she went out to get some air."

Wei Huaqing nodded: "I thought Miss Xia was unwell and asked someone to check it out. I didn't expect to see Miss Xia talking happily with Lan Xin."

Bai Lan smiled: "Brother Huang said this, and sister Chen also had the same idea as Brother Huang. Seeing Miss Xia leave the banquet, she thought Miss Xia was not feeling well, so she followed her to have a look. I didn't expect that it was just because of the sweltering heat and discomfort, that I would accompany Xia The girl walked away. Unexpectedly, this Miss Xia also lives in the frontier, like Lan Xin, her hometown is far away, and she feels homesick, which makes her feel even more uncomfortable, so Sister Chen talked with Miss Xia more before coming back."

"Lan Xin is really considerate. Miss Xia's name is a bit like the name of Concubine He. If Concubine He is not the only daughter in the family, I really think Miss Xia has something to do with Concubine He's family." Qin Wanyi smiled. said.

Xia Qingmu is another great gift: "The civil daughter Xia Qingmu sees the empress, the empress is blessed and safe. The common daughter is just the daughter of a businessman, how can she be compared to the noble concubine who came from a famous family, the empress praised her."

"Miss Xia don't need to be overly modest. Miss Xia's beauty is not inferior to that of the noble concubine. This is already a beauty in the palace. If Miss Xia dresses up a bit, she may be able to compete with the noble concubine." Qin Wanyi said with a smile .

Feng Yong heard that Qin Wanyi's every word was unkind, and said with a smile: "The Empress is so humble when she says this. Of all the people in the harem, who can compare to the Empress, the country is beautiful and fragrant. In my opinion, whether it is peace or harmony No matter how you are, the imperial concubine or Miss Xia, how can you compare to you, the empress?"

"My lord's praise, I don't know how to deal with it." Qin Wanyi pretended to be embarrassed and said.

Bai Lan smiled: "Of course what the lord said makes sense. The emperor's wife is a queen, and her mother respects the world. Not only is she beautiful, but she also has the style of her mother's respect. There are many beauties in this world, and the emperor's wife is unique. Didn't sister-in-law just say that she was humble?"

"It's still Lan Xin who can talk, and I love to listen to it every time I talk. But Lan Xin, why didn't you wear the auspicious suit of red gold embroidered phoenix and peony flowers that the emperor rewarded you today? At that time, I felt that such a The clothes, Lan Xin must look good in them." Qin Wanyi said with a smile.

Bai Lan shook her head: "Sister-in-law was just joking. Today is the empress ceremony, which is equivalent to the wedding of the empress. How can my sister steal the limelight from the emperor's brother and sister-in-law? Besides, that dress is too gorgeous, and my sister is afraid that she will be petty." It can't support it. This Phoenix Peony still needs a mother like the emperor's wife to support it."

"Lan Xin ate too much dim sum today, her mouth is so sweet." Qin Wanyi smiled happily, obviously very fond of Bai Lan.

Bai Lan smiled: "Sister-in-law's words, do you think my sister is too talkative? Then my sister will stop talking."

"Hey, today's banquet is naturally so happy. How could the empress mean not to let you speak? You are just guessing. By the way, why didn't you see the imperial concubine?" Wei Huaqing was a little puzzled.

At this time, the side and Jian Ning said with a smile: "Sister He Guifei is not feeling well, and has already gone back."

"Is Concubine He not in good health recently? Send a few imperial doctors over to take a look. I feel at ease." Wei Huaqing said calmly.

When the people below heard it, they hurried down to make arrangements.

At this time, several people came in, and Qin Gentian followed one person. It seemed that the one at the front was Fang Qingdai, the Lord Shang Gong of the Shangyi Bureau.Fang Qingdai wears a rose purple embroidered butterfly grape plain silk gauze dark pattern middle coat, a floor-length light blue embroidered lotus leaf skirt, and an azure embroidered organza brocade.She has waterfall-like hair, a romantic and chic bun, and her gently curled temples are adorned with twisting pearls, a Qilin-send-off child, Huasheng. She wears a red gold and silver bracelet on her hand, which is as smooth as cream, and a pair of shiny green rings around her waist. He Ruyi belt, with a buttoned Ruyi embroidered sachet hanging on it, and soft satin embroidered shoes on the feet, which also looked gorgeous.

And Gentiana Qin is wearing a creamy white printed Huanhua brocade brocade jacket with round collar, double breasted and straight collar, a milky white bottom jacquard ruyi pattern white skirt that sweeps the floor, and a blue hibiscus tulle plain silk with green embroidery and trim.Glossy and clean black hair, coquettish and chic hair in a bun, with carved gold jade and inn flowers inserted in the lightly curled temples, and an agate ring on her creamy hand, and a palace sash around her waist, hanging on it. Wearing a sachet and wearing butterfly boots with flowers on her feet, she looks pretty and pleasant.

After several people saluted, Fang Qingdai said with a smile: "Your Majesty, Madam Empress, some time ago, King Huiwen made a dragon and phoenix robe for the emperor and empress at the clothing bureau, and specially presented it to the emperor and empress to see."

At this time, Qin Gentiana and others took out the clothes and showed them to everyone.

The red gown was embroidered with gold thread and gemstones of various colors, with colorful golden dragons and colorful golden phoenixes. Wei Huaqing's was embroidered with auspicious clouds, and behind him was a colorful golden dragon playing with beads in the auspicious clouds.As for Qin Wanyi's, it was embroidered with peonies, and behind it was a picture of a hundred birds facing a phoenix. It looked like an incomparably gorgeous and reworked dragon and phoenix robe.

After reading it, Wei Huaqing was very satisfied: "I didn't expect you to bother so much."

"Your Majesty praised me. I just discussed it with the Shangyi Bureau. As for the quality of these clothes, it is because the adults of the Shangyi Bureau have done a good job. I am just a layman and don't understand these detailed things. If it weren't for the adults of the Shangyi Bureau, They are professionals, so they may not necessarily know what I am talking about. But, if the emperor and queen are satisfied with this dress, that is the greatest blessing of the dress." Feng Yong said with a smile.

Qin Wanyi nodded: "This dragon and phoenix robe is well made, but it's so luxurious, it's more grand than the dragon and phoenix robe for the empress's wedding. Please worry about it, Lord."
