Chapter 48: Banquet

Mid-autumn festival, Shao Le banquet.
I have to say that today's ascension is indeed a good day.
The Manchu dynasty entered the palace to participate in the banquet and was able to get up and down to this position. Who is not as transparent as a mirror, seeing and not breaking, as long as the right person is right now, it is not just a matter of promotion.
But Su Qing didn't like it.
Such a noisy occasion is really not suitable for her.
If it wasn't for meeting with Shi Shisheng and saying a few words, she would not have promised Gu Zifu to come to such a place.
However, in the past few days, I heard a faint mention of Chun Tao. In recent days, the scholars of the family have been running very fast in the palace. Sometimes they are late in the palace. After a short talk, Yi Yi reluctantly left the palace. You know, when Su Shizhou was the prince, there were also many chambers in the backyard. Only the prince and concubine were empty, and even the position of the side concubine had not been mentioned.
Now that the prince has ascended to the throne, the harem cannot be ruled out for a day, and many people in the DPRK have faint plans in mind. Su Qing raised her eyes, and her eyes fell on the carriage not far away. Sure enough, she saw a lot of Miss Qianjin, lovingly holding her mother's arm, and entered the palace with a smile.
Just listen to new people laugh, don't listen to old people cry.
When you enter the deep palace, you need to be vigilant at all times, for fear of being framed. So if you think about it, is it really important to have a reputation? It is so important that even the happiness and well-being of the natural flesh and blood can be ignored.
Speaking of, the princess of that year ...
Just thinking, with a pain in her cheek, she frowned slightly and raised her head, and she saw that Qiye's eyebrows exudes laziness, and the bottom of his eyes was frosty.
Qiye's hand bones were clear and slender, and she looked good. She had left a thin layer of cocoons on her fingertips during her early sword practice, scratching her face and itching.
Taking a few steps back in discomfort, he wasn't mad to look at him.
Gu Zifu was not annoyed, and reached out to hook Su Qing's blue silk. The little girl annoyed and annoyed, his eyes glared at him angrily.
Tieqing, who looked at Wen Zhen's complexion in his eyes, glared angrily. If he now holds the epee, he will surely smash into Qiye's head without hesitation.
Wen Lingzhou knew best about his old man's temper. He immediately laughed twice, stuck between the two, blocked each other's eyes, and said in a round field: "I didn't expect to meet Qiye here, it's a coincidence."
With a crisp sound, Su Qing Bai Jing's small hand was patted on the back of Gu Zifu's hand.
She was also taken aback by herself.
But there was a sense of sigh of relief in her heart, and there was a hint of pleasure. She hid behind Chuntao, and looked at him with a small face.
Hum, let him bully her on weekdays.
Seeing that the two ignored him, Wen Lingzhou embarrassedly shook the corners of his mouth and coughed a few times, and said gently to Su Qing: "Cousin, this is the old man in my family. You should call her a slap by age."
The words fell, always on the battlefield, and the blood-stained General Wen was stiff and straight, with sharp sword-like eyes on Su Qing, his eyes were complicated, with carefulness, expectations, and maybe something else. .
It was getting dark and separated, and Su Qing could not see clearly.
But Wen Lingzhou opened her mouth, and she couldn't lose her face, so she shouted "Warm General Wen is good."
Maybe it was her illusion, faintly seeing General Wen Da raised his hand and pressed his eyes, she blinked, trying to see a little more clearly, her eyes were blocked by people.
Gu Zifu said unpleasantly, "What is it called? I have come to take advantage of the little girl with my age, so I won't harm you."
"..." Wen Lingzhou drew his lips.
Qiye, who was it that took advantage of the little girl just now? Do you have any idea? !!
Rarely, Wen Zhen didn't speak this time and didn't even give his eyes a look.
Seeing more and more people around, Su Qing said that she was thin-skinned and could not bear the attention. She lowered her head and yanked Gu Zifu's sleeve, and whispered: "Qiye, should the banquet begin? "
The fox's eyes narrowed slightly, Gu Zifu's eyes glanced at the people around him who watched the show, smirked, and turned his wrist lightly, holding the little white tender hand in the palm of his hand, and led the person to the palace.
Su Qing was startled and hurriedly wanted to pull her hand out, but someone was staring tightly around her. She didn't dare to move much, so she had to scratch Gu Zifu's palm with her nails.
It was crispy.
Gu Zifu's heart also followed itchy, bowed his head, but saw the little girl just looked at the feet, he hooked his lips, smirked at the corner of his mouth, pulled the person forward, hugged the petite softness.
"... Qiye, let go!"
She was struggling to get up, but Gu Zifu was partial, holding her waist with her big hands, and holding the person in her arms, just like that, the person was half-hanging on her body, stepping backwards step by step.
Su Qing couldn't see the road, she could only rely on this person, her hands shy and nowhere to rest, presumably those who passed by now were watching her.
Thinking like this, his face was so hot that he simply buried his face in his arms. No matter how he threatened to ridicule, he would not say anything.
What a shame!
"It's like ..." Wen Zhen muttered to himself.
Wen Lingzhou silently, for a long while, lowered his voice and asked, "Sheng Er lives with the concubine, and the place is remote. If you want to take a look, old man ..."
"No, the children should hate me, just like the language of the year," Wen Zhen rubbed his forehead and smiled bitterly, "You look at that child, and even refuse to call me."
"Old man ..."
Wen Zhen raised his hand, interrupted his words, and breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "Aren't you familiar with the kid from the Tang family, wait for this time to help me get him out, and I'll take him for a meal." Rice. "After that, he patted Wen Lingzhou's shoulder and walked towards the palace.
Wen Lingzhou followed, shaking his head.
The palace of Qionglou and the corner of the eaves are a lively atmosphere in the eyes, and the vulgar sound of silk and bamboo orchestra can be heard faintly.
Listening to the sounds on both sides getting quieter and quieter, Su Qing looked up hesitantly, and there were only three or two lanterns swaying in the evening breeze in the dark smoky surroundings, emitting little lights.
Su Qing couldn't help but be afraid, holding her tightly with Gu Zifu's clothes, she looked around vigilantly.
A squeak at her feet startled her, and she trembled slightly, feeling panicked as something passed along her shoes.
"... mice, there are mice, there are mice ..."
She shuddered, clinging to Gu Zifu's body and saying nothing.
The moment when the soft body pressed over, Gu Zifu's eyes flashed with strange emotions.
He lowered his head and looked at the trembling man in his arms, rubbing his fingers softly against the soft flesh of the girl's neck, and whispering, like charm and confusion, "What do you want me to do?"
"Seven or seven masters?"
Gu Zifu frowned. "No."
There was a stun at his feet. Su Qing had already scared the six gods, and she couldn't stop shaking. Where could Gu Gu be asking what Gu Zifu asked, she kept digging into people's arms.
"Seven and seven masters bully me again ..." The ending conceals the grievances and petitions that cannot be ignored.
Gu Zifu felt that the little girl was unreasonable, bowed his head, and looked at him in a panic. The words stuck in his throat turned out to be insidious.
A finger flicked on the forehead and said "little unconscience", bent over and hugged the person and walked along the path.
Su Qing closed her eyes tightly, Bai Jing's fingertips clasped her placket tightly, and she was slightly pink due to excessive force.
I didn't know how long it was, until she heard a "dangdang" in her ear, and her heart fluttered, her eyelashes flickered slightly, and her eyes opened slowly.
There is light in the room, as well as familiar furnishings in front of you.
She stared blankly for a while for a while, slowly regained her head, looked up, and saw Gu Zi Fu Zheng looked at her with disappointment, her face flushed instantly and she could bleed, and struggled to come down.
Gu Zifu didn't stop. When he saw someone about to land, he let go of his hand without warning. Su Qing didn't stand still, and he took a few steps to sit on the ground.
"..."
"Are you fat again?" Gu Zifu looked at his fingertips, frowned, his face undisguised disdain.
Thinking of the little days spent in the restaurant these days, Su Qing suddenly didn't have the courage to retort, and muttered in a low voice: "Just eat more, how can it be so obvious ..."
Gu Zifu Qi said: "I didn't say you eat more."
"..." Su Qing then reacted, and she was tricked again.
But this man looked serious, nodded, and said, "If you are fat, you will be like Dabai, and you won't have to eat later."
Su Qing bit her lip, stood up from the ground, and patted the dust on her dress, thinking that her hair bun might be a little messy, she sat around the screen in front of the mirror, and trimmed her hair in front of the mirror. . She doesn't have the same ingenuity as Shuangqiao, but just paints a gourd to pinch messy hair behind her ears.
The purple jade shuttlecock exudes ripples under the weak light.
The feel is also exceptionally good.
Gu Zifu leaned on the pillar, staring at her for a while, staring at the bottom of her eyes with smiles, sometimes deep and serious, and asked without thinking: "Does it look good?"
"Huh?" Su Qing didn't understand, turned and looked at him in confusion.
Gu Zifu didn't open his mouth to explain, nodded, walked to the bed, sat down, leaned over his side and supported his head.
No matter who you put it on, it ’s been so long staring, you ca n’t help getting hair, seeing that it ’s almost sorted out, Su Qing puts down her comb, thinks about it, and asks,
Qiye, are n’t we here for the party ? "
How come you came to see the palace.
Gu Zifu raised her eyelids and squinted her, and said, "Listen a few words, I can live a few more years and not go."
...... It's worthy to be Qiye.
Su Qing was also happy. She bent her mouth and asked, "Can you go to Qiye by yourself? I'll wait for Qiye to come back here?"
Gu Zifu squinted his eyes, "Do you want to leave me to play?"
play? What to play?
Su Qing was half a while, and saw Gu Zifu's face getting colder. She hurried to explain: "No, not to play, I want to find a concubine and see Shenger ..."
Gu Zi's eyes narrowed, and he prolonged his tone, saying "Oh", with his long legs up, he got up and went out.
"Qiye, where are you going?"
"Of course I went to see Xiaozi." Gu Zifu smiled.
Su Qing glared at him, "That's Shenger, not a little bitch."
"I see, Shenger, little sister-in-law." He took a few steps forward, and saw Su Qing still stumbling in place, then returned to hold Su Qing's wrist, and dragged people out.
When Su Qing saw this man really wanted to go, he quickly said: "Seven Lord, in case the prince sends someone ..."
"Rest assured, he can't find us."
Su Qing still wasn't assured, "Qiye, you still go, I'll just go and see for myself."
"You hate me?" Gu Zifu stopped and stared at her.
"No, no ... why is that ..."
Gu Zifu did not believe, "You are lying."
Really can't beat this person, Su Qing hardened her scalp and nodded extremely slowly, "Yes ... there is a little bit, just a little bit."
She lowered her head and stared at the tip of her shoe, her gaze clinging tightly to her body, her back cold.
Gu Zifu looked at her with a serious look, and her anger was rising.
Really ... unhappy.
Leng Huo, walked out of his sleeves.
Su Qingsheng was afraid that this man would run around and quickly chased out, "Qiye, where are you going?"
"Banquet." The thick □□ in the tone deep fried.
"This is, what's wrong ..." Su Qing stood at the door, blinked, and was a little scratched.
Qi Ye is not a day or two for playing with a temper, but how does she feel that this time is like a bear child next door that ca n’t grab the sugar, more and more ... childish?
naive?
Su Qing was startled by the idea that jumped out, holding her arms and rubbing her shudder.
Maybe she thinks wrong.
I haven't seen him for a few days, Qiye's temperament has become more and more unbelievable.
However, when she just entered the palace, Chuntao didn't know where she went, and she didn't know if she was looking for her in a hurry.
The palace is so big, and there are many people at the moment. If she goes out to find it again, she won't be able to find it for a short while, so she should go to the Buddhist temple to see Sheng Er first.
After exiting the Jian Temple, walk along the path, bypass the lakeside pavilion, and walk a short distance.
She had just come out of the palace, and somebody was moving not far away. It was dark, and there were objects covering the place. Only two figures could be seen vaguely, tall and thin men and women could not see it.
They seemed to have reached a decision, one followed, and the other went in the opposite direction.
.
Royal Garden, Banquet
When Gu Zifu went, the tedious ceremony had been completed. He went to the banquet, and the original hustle and bustle came to an abrupt halt, but it was a half-moment.
The chips are intertwined, the cups and lanterns collide, and the dance is fun.
A few daring government officials secretly glanced at it, but with only a few glances, the lady beside her whispered and whispered back.
That was the Seventh Master of the Gu Family.
Su Shizhou was sitting at the top of the banquet. A large pearl was inlaid in the center of the golden emperor's crown. With his movement, the golden ten-claw golden dragon on the dragon robe fluctuated and fluctuated. The whole man exudes the spirit of the king.
When he saw Gu Zifu, his eyes were surprised, but he didn't think he would actually come to the banquet.
Doesn't that mean ...
I was wondering if I would wait for the party to end, and then I would leave a few words to talk about, and a sound behind him sounded, "But Brother Huang is watching Qiye?"
Su Shizhou looked at Su Yingruo, his face became colder, and he said, "Where did you go just now?"
Su Yingruo refused, "Brother Huang, Ruoer went to accompany the mother-in-law just now. You can't blame Ruoer casually."
Recently, Duan Tai's health was not very good. She felt unwell after staying at the banquet for a little while, and then she walked back to Qingying Palace. After hearing Su Yingruo's words like this, his tone only slowed down, "Well, Qiye is here, don't make people laugh."
Su Yingruo thought this was really ridiculous. She raised her eyebrows lightly, chilled at the bottom of her eyes, and whispered in her ears, and said, "Look at what the emperor said, as if Ruoer behaved well and could marry Qiye."
His emperor, his ambitions grew even more ambitious.
Or should it be said that the nature is exposed?
Saying that, Su Shizhou was not upset, he closed his robe, and finally a mild smile appeared on the lips. "If you say," Your brother, howl, but I don't remember that my mother had a sister. "
Su Yingruo's eyes narrowed slightly, half a moment, and she couldn't help laughing, and she was very shallow and moving. "The emperor's brother is really joking. The mother-in-law of Ruoer is the emperor's mother-in-law, so why not go out with her family?"
"It would be nice if you knew it."
Over there, Wen Lingzhou clung to the wine glass and sat next to Gu Zifu in the eyes of everyone, and counted all those Jiao Jiao spring waves.
Gu Zifu lifted his eyelids, held chopsticks in his hand, and knocked on the wine glass on the table.
"铿铿 铿 " The knocker followed with a jump in his heart.
Wen Lingzhou caressed the corners of his twitched mouth slightly and asked, "Qiye, cousin?"
Did not respond.
He asked again, "I heard that my cousin was timid and couldn't stand it. Qiye couldn't find someone to make a joke."
He said this seriously.
On that day, watching Gu Fu's servants leave the house, he stopped them and secretly plugged in silver to inquire about something. The content is not much, but it is enough for him to infer one or two. The old man with a knife and tofu in his mouth can't put down his body to ask, so he has to knock and listen to a few words.
The sound of "声" stopped, Gu Zifu glanced at him, and continued to hold on with chopsticks. This time, instead of knocking on the wine glass, he knocked on a porcelain plate made of white porcelain. The sound was clearer and clearer than before. A little more.
Feeling interesting, he simply knocked back and forth on both sides.
There was a minister next to him who couldn't stand it, and covered his ears to find an excuse to hide.
Wen Lingzhou was knocked out of his temper, and he said helplessly, "Qiye, did you listen to me?"
Gu Zifu said, "I'm timid, I like it."
"Ahhhhhhhh—"
Wen Lingzhou was drinking, half-mouthed, and the remaining half of the mouth was sprayed onto the table with a mouthful. He turned to his side, his face flushed with redness, and his expression was astonished. What he heard in his ears was like heaven Fall down.
"... Qiye, are you serious?" He asked tremblingly.
When he asked, Gu Zifu was irritable, his brows sulking.
"Chomp", chopsticks folded in two.
"I said it last time, she didn't believe it."
"..." Wen Lingzhou's head hurt.
It was him, he didn't believe it.
He sighed, picked up the jug on the table and shook it, but found that it was empty with no sound. Gong'e, who was standing behind him, saw this, and came forward, with a smile on her face, and put the jug on the table to fill the empty glass in Wen Lingzhou's hand.
Glancing at another glass of wine, Jiao said, "Seven Lords, slaves also add to you."
Then he got up and walked aside.
The wine is mellow and scented is the palace wine. Wen Lingzhou pouts and is about to take a sip.
"Drink, but it's dead."
A fluttering voice came, and Wen Lingzhou had time to inquire about it, and saw Gu Zifu holding his neck of Gong'e with his hands, his fingers contracted, and he threw someone with a bang.
Gong'e lay on the ground without interest, and a short sword in his sleeve was exposed.
"Assassins! Escort! Escort!"
I don't know who first shouted, the Royal Garden suddenly turned into a mess, and the guards held sharp swords and surrounded the whole place.
Wen Lingzhou silently looked at the wine glass, and then put it down silently.
Get up and honestly return to your seat.
Qiye deserves to be Qiye. He can kill a person with a drink.
Su Shizhou was furious. "A bunch of waste! Send someone to investigate immediately, it is necessary to find out!"
Someone dared to carry out assassinations on the day of his ascension. No matter who it was, he would kill it all.
He was angry, his eyes fell on Gu Zifu, and he was about to speak. Before he could talk, a guard ran in a panic, pointing to somewhere and shouting for fire.
The night was deep, but the smoke billowed, but it was extremely clear in the air.
Gu Zifu looked at the rising smoke in the air, twitched the corners of his mouth, and his eyes became interested.
It is lively now.
Among them, Yusu Shizhou's face is the most iron-green.
Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival and the day when the new emperor ascended the throne, and things happened one after another at the banquet. It is said that if the minded people would discuss it again, how would Nanzhao's thousands of people think of him.
Seeing him striding out, the Guards immediately followed.
The other ministers looked at each other, I wonder who was the first to move, and one after another followed.
The fire was near Lenggong, some distance away from the Royal Garden. The place was remote. There had been a big fire before. Most of the pillars and beams were half burned. Now it is on fire again, and it is inevitable that the burning thing will burn and burn again. In addition, just when a maiden found it, the guards were holding the bucket to put out the source of the fire.
But the smoke billowing and watching it was too horrifying.
Gu Zifu came to you in the end.
When I turned around, I saw that Wen's father and son were rushing over slowly. It was so anxious to look at it.
Gu Zifu raised an eyebrow, kicked Wen Zhen, and yelled, "General, this is a good time to show your loyalty to your Majesty, why don't you go and make fun?"
"Shut up!" Wen Zhen glared at him fiercely, and then frowned. "The cold palace is cold, and there are few tinders on weekdays. If somebody intentionally planned it, it would be that few people would believe it.
"Maybe I will believe it."
Wen Zhen had a headache and lifted his feet to kick him. "You mad dog has to sing with Lao Tzu! Go back to your old courtyard to feed!"
"Quick! Stop him!"
"Oh ... who is so aggressive, you can't get in!"
The crowd was in a mess, and the guards were dragging people around, but the man didn't listen and rushed inside with stubbornness.
"Let it go! Let go of your Highness!" Su Shisheng did not know where the strength came from, and he pulled the guard to the side, and was about to step forward again, and was dragged by him.
"His Royal Highness Nine!"
His Highness Nine?
The three people who were watching the lively look together.
This look, just so that Su Shisheng saw them, he bit his lip and did not care about anything, and kicked and kicked the person to the ground, and ran to Gu Zifu in front of him, "thumping" and kneeling loudly.
"Qiye! Please save my elder sister! My elder sister is still inside!"
