Transformed into a vicious concubine? Being led by the eldest sister is annoying
Chapter 349 Palace Banquet
As the end of the year approaches, the entire capital city is immersed in a festive and busy atmosphere.
Bai Qianqian's family was no exception, and they all plunged into the craze of buying New Year's items.
Bai Qianqian happily shuttled between the shops, her eyes full of excitement and anticipation.
She would buy anything she thought might be useful, whether it was exquisite silk, unique jewelry, or all kinds of novel gadgets, without hesitation.
She also packed every day necessities like oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, pots, pans, and utensils.
She even bought some items that seemed seldom used.
When others saw her making such large purchases, they couldn't help but show surprise, but she didn't care at all, because she knew in her heart that these things were all in preparation for the opening of the Wanjie Platform in the future.
Although the Wanjie platform is no longer opened once a month as in the past, it is always good to make more preparations even if the chances of opening it have become less frequent.
In this bustling shopping scene, time flies by and in the blink of an eye it is New Year’s Eve.
On this day, the whole Bai Mansion was filled with joy, and bursts of tempting aroma wafted from the kitchen.
At noon, the family sat around the table and enjoyed a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner.
Everyone was laughing and wishing each other well, and a warm atmosphere filled the entire mansion.
After lunch, King Chen arrived as expected.
He was dressed in a gorgeous brocade robe, looking heroic, with a gentle smile on his face.
Under the gaze of her family, Bai Qianqian walked towards King Chen with a little shyness.
King Chen gently took her hand and helped her into the carriage, and then the two of them drove towards the palace together.
Inside the carriage, Bai Qianqian was not nervous at all.
After all, this is not the first time I have entered the palace.
The carriage went straight into the palace gate, causing many ladies to envy and hate.
The carriage was extraordinarily luxurious, and the rolling of its wheels demonstrated the noble status of King Dust.
After entering the palace, Bai Qianqian went straight to find the Crown Princess and elder sister Bai Jinyan.
As soon as the two sisters met, they walked into the inner room hand in hand intimately, and couldn't wait to share each other's recent situation.
Soon, Lou Yishuang and others also arrived.
For a moment, the house was bustling with activity.
Everyone sat together with exquisite fruits in front of them, tasting the food and chatting about all kinds of gossip.
"Have you heard? The young lady of the Li family is refusing to get married recently!" Chu Yuxuan said in a low voice.
"Why?" everyone asked curiously.
"I heard that she disliked the man's family's decline."
Everyone shook their heads and sighed.
Lou Yishuang took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "That's nothing. I heard that the wife and concubine of the Wang family had a big fight over a piece of jewelry."
"Oh, this is really undignified." Everyone laughed.
Bai Qianqian also laughed and interrupted, "There's still a lot of gossip in the capital."
Everyone laughed when they heard it.
As she was speaking, Shen Qingcheng spoke mysteriously, "Did you know that the young master of the Zhao family has a mistress outside?"
"Ah?" Everyone was shocked.
As everyone was talking and laughing, a palace maid reminded them that the banquet was about to begin.
The meaning is obvious, let them sit back in their seats.
Now Chu Yuxuan, Lou Yishuang and Shen Qingcheng are all married.
They will all be with their husbands.
Bai Qianqian smiled and was pulled away by Bai Jinyan.
They are both daughters-in-law of the royal family.
Naturally, he should sit next to the Crown Prince and King Chen.
Naturally, the two concubines of the Crown Prince's Mansion would also attend today's event.
After all, they are all people who have been blessed with the Royal Jade Butterfly.
Bai Qianqian smiled and sat down next to King Chen, looking back.
I even laughed when I saw my cousin.
In this year's imperial examination, her cousin was ranked third in the imperial examination.
The top scorer in the gold exam was Chu Wenchuan, the cousin of the Chu family.
I have to say, a talented person is a talented person.
Even if you immerse yourself in it for three years, you can still get the top score.
As for the second place winner, it is said that he was a poor scholar.
But he is not very old, probably less than twenty years old.
I am more interested in this Bai Qianqian.
After all, there is no paragraph about it in the book.
The fact that she knew so much information must be related to her older sister.
Since the two of them have a good relationship, they get together from time to time.
The emperor came with his concubines and the palace banquet began.
Everyone stood up and saluted, shouting long live the emperor.
The emperor smiled and raised his hand to signal everyone to stand up, then sat down in the main seat.
The concubines sat beside the emperor in turn.
The sound of stringed instruments rang out, and the dancers began to dance gracefully, their graceful dance moves were intoxicating.
Exquisite dishes were served on the table, filling the air with aroma.
The emperor raised his glass and said, "Today is a festive day. Let us all celebrate together and celebrate the New Year!" Everyone raised their glasses in response and drank it all in one gulp.
Bai Qianqian ate by herself without feeling any burden at all.
The little girl from King Chen had puffy cheeks and her eyes were full of tenderness.
After three rounds of drinking, the emperor said, "This year's imperial examination produced many talented people. It is a blessing for our dynasty. The new champions, runners-up, and third place winners, please come forward and receive your titles!"
Chu Wenchuan, the runner-up who came from a poor family, and Bai Qianqian's cousin stepped forward one by one and knelt down to listen to the announcement.
The emperor gave rewards to them one by one, and the three returned to their thrones after expressing their gratitude.
At this time, the prince stood up and said respectfully: "Father, your Majesty, I have something to report." The emperor nodded slightly, motioning for him to speak.
The prince said: "Now the border is stable and the people are prosperous, all because of the wisdom of the emperor. I suggest that we grant amnesty to the whole country to show the benevolence of our dynasty."
The emperor thought for a moment, then said, "Your Highness is right. I approve your request!"
Everyone shouted in unison for the emperor's benevolence, and the atmosphere of the palace banquet became even more lively.
Bai Qianqian and King Chen smiled at each other, enjoying this happy moment.
Suddenly, a minister stood up and toasted, saying: "May our dynasty prosper for thousands of years!"
Everyone responded and raised their glasses again.
The palace banquet lasted until late at night and ended with laughter and joy.
On the carriage back to the Bai Mansion, Bai Qianqian sighed: "Your Majesty, I thought the prince's two concubines would cause trouble."
After all, the prince did not consummate his marriage with them.
Today is a good opportunity to file a complaint with the Emperor.
Prince Chen smiled and explained her doubts, "Today is a palace banquet. If we cause trouble, it will ruin the reputation of the prince. They are his concubines. They will prosper together and suffer together. Anyone with a bit of brains will not do such a thing."
Bai Qianqian nodded thoughtfully, "So that's how it is. It seems I thought it was too simple."
She really hadn't thought about it that deeply.
King Chen gently rubbed her hair and said, "You are simple-minded, so you naturally wouldn't think of these twists and turns."
Bai Qianqian leaned in the arms of Prince Chen and muttered, "Then I would rather stay this simple and have the prince protect me."
King Chen hugged her tightly and said, "I will protect you well."
Bai Qianqian couldn't stop laughing.
With her current abilities, she no longer needs King Chen's protection.
