Chapter 190 Mid-Autumn Festival Crab Banquet

Neither Emperor Shunde nor Xie Xiaobai noticed the figure who just walked past.

Emperor Shunde carefully looked at the hairstyle with sweet-scented osmanthus branches inserted in it for a while, nodded, and took the flower branches from Xie Xiaobai's temples, "That's it! Go, go back and change clothes!"

She hid the sweet-scented osmanthus branch in her sleeve pocket, and happily returned to the Zichen Palace with Xie Xiaobai.

"Your Majesty, you are back." Lady Chen quietly appeared between the two, "The crab banquet has been set up, and we are waiting for you and the eldest princess to attend."

Emperor Shunde covered his head, "Hiss... Xu Shi just blew cold wind in the imperial garden, and my old headache problem has happened again..."

"Your Majesty's massage will be performed by this servant." Official Chen tacitly supported Emperor Shunde to the inner hall.

She didn't forget to dismiss Xie Xiaobai, "Xiaobai, go tell the eldest princess that His Majesty is ill and cannot attend the banquet."

Prince Liang's interest groups didn't know that Xie Xiaobai knew that Emperor Shunde was a daughter.

Xie Xiaobai stepped back in response.

……

Xie Xiaobai rushed to the banquet scene, but the eldest princess hadn't arrived yet.

After about another stick of incense, the eldest princess sat on the upper seat with the help of her maid.

A bead curtain separates the eldest princess and the gentlemen.

Xie Xiaobai came forward to report: "Eldest Princess, Your Majesty has had a cold wind blowing in the Imperial Garden today, and cannot come to the banquet."

"Understood." The eldest princess's face was hidden behind the bead curtain, so she couldn't see clearly.

Everyone could only hear her softly saying, "Since Brother Huang can't come, let's have a banquet."

Cui Shangshi led the palace servants from Shangshi Bureau into the palace and served wine and food to the guests.

Steamed hairy crabs are red and fragrant, accompanied by clear osmanthus wine. It is a limited delicacy unique to autumn.

The eldest princess's personal servant said loudly: "The princess is weak and cannot drink, so I will replace the wine with tea, and I propose a toast to everyone."

The eldest princess raised her teacup, "My lords, please help yourself."

Everyone present knew that this was a princess's husband selection banquet.

They naturally also understand that the eldest princess's current honor is due to her brother who has become the puppet of King Liang. When the sixteenth princess's brother is no longer around, she will be lowered again. to the dust.

But the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, no matter how you say this princess is a relative of the emperor, even if she is not favored, she is also a princess who is supported by the imperial court!

They are the group with the most mediocre qualifications in the clan, with a handsome skin, no talent, no political sense, so they can do whatever they want.

If you marry the princess, you will directly reach the apex that you will never reach in a lifetime!Even if they fall from the apex in the future, it will be much better than their current situation.

The princes raised their wine glasses and touched the eldest princess's teacup from a distance.

Here, Chen Yan, who raised his teacup, seemed to be a maverick.

"Mr. Chen Yan, if I'm not mistaken, what you drank just now...wasn't a bar?" Someone with good intentions pointed it out.

Chen Yan, the concubine son of the King of Liang, looked a bit top-notch among their mediocre talents, so he was unfortunately targeted.

The man sitting next to Chen Yan came to his rescue and said, "Perhaps the servant girl was negligent. You see, there is no wine on Mr. Chen's table."

Emperor Shunde cast a look of help to Xie Xiaobai.

Xie Xiaobai took a step forward and said: "Before the preparations for the banquet, the princess specially told the Shangshi Bureau to pay attention to the dietary taboos of the young masters. Mr. Chen can't drink alcohol, so the Shangshi Bureau changed the tea for him."

Cui Shangshi followed suit and said, "Exactly."

Emperor Shunde breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: Fortunately, when they were taking care of Chen Yan, they did not take special care of him, and by the way, they also took care of other people's dietary taboos.

The other young masters started to blow the eldest princess's rainbow fart, but there was also Tie Hanhan, who didn't have a high emotional intelligence, who was holding Chen Yan tight.

"Chen Yan, is there any reason for the princess to refuse a toast? You can't even drink alcohol, are you a man?"

The young masters gloated at this "self-elimination" Tie Hanhan, and then at Chen Yan who was in an embarrassing situation.

Chen Yan stood up and walked straight to the palace maid holding a wine flask. He filled himself up with wine.

"This cup, to the princess." Chen Yan drank the wine in the cup with a smile.

He poured another glass of wine and said, "This glass is respectful to all of you."

Another gulp.

When Emperor Shunde saw that Chen Yan was going to pour a third glass of wine, he was about to burst into tears. He shouted angrily: "That's enough!"

She clenched the handkerchief tightly: calm down, don't let Prince Liang's eyes and ears notice anything unusual.

Emperor Shunde took a few deep breaths, and then recovered his soft voice, "Cough...Since Mr. Chen can't drink alcohol, there is no need to force it. I have already understood your intentions, eat crabs."

She introduced: "Recently, Jiangnan presented a batch of tribute crabs. The meat is fat and delicious. We invite you to taste it."

Chen Yan returned to his seat, did not move the crab on the plate, just stared at the crab, his eyes were clouded with mist, and his cheeks were blush.

While everyone was struggling with the crabs, he quietly left the table and went outside to enjoy the breeze.

A bowl of hangover soup was handed to him.

"Here, drink it while it's hot, the medicine will work well."

Chen Yan saw the "eldest princess" with osmanthus flowers on her temples.

He was drunk and thought to himself: This lady Xie is really favored in front of the imperial court, she and His Majesty's own sister are actually wearing the same style of osmanthus branches.

Emperor Shunde watched Chen Yan drink every drop of the sobering soup with his own eyes, so he stuffed the bowl into his arms and went back to eat crabs.

Chen Yan breathed outside for a while, feeling himself relieved, before returning to the table.

He was taken aback: the uneaten crabs on his table were removed.

"Mr. Chen, the crab you just had is cold, and the cold crab is inedible. We replaced it with a freshly steamed crab for you."

Xie Xiaobai served Chen Yan a plate of steaming crabs.

The crab has cut off its legs, opened its shell, removed its heart, lungs and stomach, revealing the oily crab roe and jade-white crab meat inside.

Chen Yan looked around: It seems that the crabs on other people's tables don't have the palace maid to help with the preliminary processing?

He peeled off a crab leg, dipped it in the dipping sauce, and put it in his mouth.

Um?No garlic in this sauce?

How could he have the illusion that he was being taken care of specially?

Xie Xiaobai, who was standing aside, saw through Chen Yan's thoughts, and gave Cui Shangshi a look.

Cui Shangshi gave orders to the maid in an orderly manner.

The maids remove the cold crabs from the table, and provide crab peeling service for the guests who don't seem to enjoy peeling crabs by themselves.

Xie Xiaobai tapped the crab claws for a noble young man beside him, and complained silently in his heart: Emperor Shunde had a sweet relationship with her sweetheart, and she, an outsider, did the hard work of peeling crabs?
She glanced at the noble young man with powder on his face: "Okay, it's all right for her to deal with a crab for Emperor Shunde's sweetheart."Why did she still do the work of the Shangshi Bureau in order not to make the sweetheart of Emperor Shunde suspicious, peeling crabs for other people for free?
"boom--"

With a hammer, the shell of the crab claws cracked.Xie Xiaobai picked out the firm crab meat and put it in the young man's bowl.
