Dingguo Mansion itself has attracted people's attention, and now such a small episode has become the focus.Because Xiao Yuchen didn't like Princess Jianing, some noble girls didn't see her jokes, and were a little disappointed.

And many courtiers felt that the marriage between Dingguo's mansion and Prince Duan's mansion was not worthwhile.Apart from his high status and wealth, Prince Duan is useless, not to mention that he is a scumbag.

But no matter what others think, Tang Shuyi and Princess Carrie are enjoying themselves happily.What she was interested in was not Princess Carrian's background, but the girl's intelligence.Just like now, even if what happened just now, Princess Carnegie is still generous when greeting others, as if what happened just now didn't happen.

Tang Shuyi was really more and more satisfied the more he watched.

Mrs. Tang whispered to Tang Shuyi, "You are a good daughter-in-law."

The smile on Tang Shuyi's face was even bigger.

After a while, the palace gate opened, and everyone walked in one after another. Xiao Yuzhu followed Tang Shuyi closely all the time.After entering the banquet hall, they were taken to their respective positions by the court ladies and eunuchs.It's not very important to guard against men and women in the grand court, but the banquet still has to be divided into men and women.

In the past, the banquets for men and women were held in different banquet halls, but today they are held in the same banquet hall, but the men and women are separated by a screen.Tang Shuyi didn't think much about it.Anyway, the emperor has the final say on this kind of thing, and people can do whatever they want.

After everyone sat down, after a while, the emperor, empress and concubines all arrived.After the emperor sat down, he spoke impassionedly, and then he waved his hand, and a row of maids came in with meals.After the meal was served, there were dancers dancing again, a school of singing and dancing made peace.

After the dancers finished their dance and stepped back, the emperor raised his cup to toast his courtiers, and the queen also toasted to the wives.Putting down the wine glass, the queen smiled and said to the emperor: "The concubine heard that the young ladies of several grown-up families are very good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Why don't we let them show it, and we will open our eyes."

The emperor nodded after listening, "Okay, you can arrange it, queen."

"Yes," the queen said again: "In this case, it's better to remove the screen so that everyone can appreciate it."

The emperor nodded, "The queen's idea is good, let's withdraw."

After he spoke, a dozen or so eunuchs came in immediately and swiftly removed the screen.Tang Shuyi looked at the banquet hall without any barriers, and took Xiao Yuzhu's hand.The emperor should have a purpose for doing this, but he doesn't know who it is for.

She turned her head and whispered to Xiao Yuzhu: "No matter what happens in a while, don't be afraid, mother and your father are here."

She was afraid that the emperor came for Yuzhu, if the emperor dared to marry the fourth prince and Yuzhu on the spot today, she would not agree to it even if she died.

"I know, mother, don't worry." Xiao Yuzhu said with a smile.

Tang Shuyi patted her head, then looked at Xiao Huai.The eyes of the two met, and then they gave each other a smile.No matter what happens, let's face it together.

"Which lady will come first?"

The queen's voice sounded, but there was no sound below.The ladies of all ages are extremely nervous at the moment.Before, the emperor thought of selecting someone from among the talented women in Beijing to enter the palace, but it didn't work out.Wouldn't it be this time again?

Seeing that no one responded, the queen looked a little unhappy.At this time, a crisp voice sounded, "My daughter, come first."

Saying that, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl with a graceful figure and a beautiful appearance came out.When she reached the center of the banquet hall, she bowed to the emperor and empress.The queen's face softened a lot, and she asked, "Which family do you belong to?"

"My daughter Luo Xiaonan, her father is Doctor Guanglu Luo Xiangwen."

The queen nodded, but there were some voices of discussion below.There is no other reason. Those who can participate in today's palace banquet are all officials and their families above the second rank, and Doctor Guanglu is from the third rank.

At this time, the queen's voice sounded again, "What dance do you want to dance?"

"Green waist." Luo Xiaonan said.

The queen nodded, "Go and tidy up."

Luo Xiaonan saluted again, then turned and left.Tang Shuyi had seen quite a few beauties, but she had to say that this Miss Luo was pretty.It's just that she doesn't know what she is thinking about fighting with the emperor or queen.

A quarter of an hour later, Luo Xiaonan came in wearing a white and green dance costume, first saluted the emperor and the empress, and then danced with her waist swinging to the sound of music.

Looking at the graceful dancing posture, a poem came to Tang Shuyi's mind: dance to the heart and moon of the willow building, and sing to the wind of the peach blossom fan.

Could this be the beauty presented by the empress to the emperor?Tang Shuyi was thinking about it, when she saw Luo Xiaonan turn her waist and approach Xiao Huai, then flicked her long sleeve, and hit the wine glass on Xiao Huai's table impartially, the wine glass tipped over with a bang, and the wine spilled came out and wet Xiao Huai's clothes.

"Ah!" Luo Xiaonan exclaimed, stopped dancing and walked to Xiao Huai's side, bent down to wipe him.But before her hand touched anyone, she was pushed away vigorously.Then she tilted her body and was about to fall on Xiao Huai, but Xiao Huai got up and dodged at that moment, and Luo Xiaonan fell to the ground.

It happened so suddenly that the musicians didn't have time to stop.At this time, the queen waved her hands, the music disappeared, and the banquet hall was silent.

"Oh, what's the matter?" The queen said with a look of pity: "Help him up quickly."

Two palace maids walked over to help him up, Luo Xiaonan walked to the center of the banquet hall, knelt down, "My servant's skills are not good, I hope the emperor and empress forgive me, and I hope the Duke will forgive me."

"It's pitiful, get up quickly." The queen turned to look at Xiao Huai, "I didn't mean to see her, Duke Ding, please forgive her."

Xiao Huai roughly guessed the emperor's purpose, he saluted and said, "I'm fine."

With a smile on her face, the empress turned her head and said to the emperor, "I think this lady from the Luo family has a good relationship with Duke Ding."

The emperor nodded, then looked at Luo Xiaonan and asked, "Is there a marriage?"

Luo Xiaonan blushed and replied: "Never married."

"Well," the emperor looked at Xiao Huai, "I heard that you don't have a single concubine in your backyard, and today you are destined to be with Miss Luo, so I will decide to give her to you as the second wife."
