The Pastoral Empress Merchant

Chapter 637 Entering the Palace (9)
It can be seen that this cousin of the Xiao family must be a person with a serious personality.She can't bear the eyes of those ladies who insist on their own status and think they are superior. They have eyes on the top of their heads, just like Tao Baozhu, Guang Luxun's daughter before. Everyone is in the same boat. Why should she look at people with her nostrils? That's right, Guang Luxun was demoted, and her worth also dropped. Let's see how she is now.

Another person who was slightly displeased with Mu Jinxi's treatment was Mo Xuerui.

Mo Xuerui is the eldest daughter of Duke Mo, so she is naturally favored in the Mo residence, and is even popular in the palace, but today, the queen actually forgot about her!However, compared to Tao Baozhu's level, Mo Xuerui was more than one, she curled her lips secretly and chatted with the person next to her.

The empress didn't stay in the imperial garden for a long time, she just sat down for a while and then returned to the palace, because she was going to appear at the palace banquet with the emperor later, it was getting late now, she had to go back to prepare.

As soon as the queen left, the other concubines Zhaorong and others also left. As soon as these people left the scene, the atmosphere became lively and everyone relaxed a lot.

Mu Jinxi sat next to Mrs. Xiao with a faint smile all the time, not too bored, and made some wives who silently paid attention to her look up to her more and more.

When it was almost time, everyone set off from the Imperial Garden to the Chengming Hall of Weiyang Palace, where tonight's palace banquet will be held.

When the group of female relatives arrived at the Chengming Hall, the hall was already brightly lit, and it was very lively. People gathered in twos and threes, and there was a burst of laughter from time to time.

When the female relatives came in, they naturally attracted the attention of many people. When Xiao Yu and Xiao Xiao saw their mother and younger sister coming in, they immediately threw down their friends and walked over.

"Xiaoxi, were you okay at the Imperial Garden just now? Did someone without eyes bully you?" Xiao Xiao asked with concern.

Xiao Yu also looked at her with concern.

Before Mu Jinxi could speak, Mrs. Xiao laughed and said, "Ah Xiao, you don't believe your mother when you ask such a question? How could you let others bully Xiaoxi with your mother? What a joke!"

"Yeah, what is my aunt worried about?"

While talking, Xiao Xiao suddenly sighed and said, "You should bring your cousin with you."

Who knew he would not come.

Mu Jinxi shook her head and said: "Let's forget it, now big brother can concentrate on preparing for the exam, and talk about other things later, so as not to distract him."

Xiao Xiao thought it made sense.

Xiao Yu looked at Mu Jinxi and said, "Xiao Xi, did you know any young ladies this afternoon? Although the young ladies in the capital are somewhat arrogant, there are some who are worthy of deep friendship. You might as well try to talk to them."

Xiao Yu felt that it would be good if her cousin could meet some new friends when she came to the capital.

Mu Jinxi shook her head and said, "Not yet."

Xiao Yu reached out and touched her head and said softly: "Don't worry, take your time, and be friends with those who feel the taste is right, otherwise just ignore it."

Mrs. Xiao slapped her son's hand away with a slap, glared at him and said, "Don't touch your head, what if you mess up your bun?" The main event hasn't started yet!

Xiao Yu smiled and said, "Okay, don't touch it, so as not to mess up my cousin's beautiful bun."

The two sons of the Xiao family are both outstanding in appearance and temperament, and it is enough to attract people just to stop there. Now that they have added a face-to-face woman, everyone immediately turned their attention to a few of them.

Fortunately, soon the father-in-law's voice came from outside the hall, saying that the emperor and empress had arrived.

Everyone returned to their seats, stood up, and said in unison: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, queen, thousand years old!"

The emperor laughed and said: "My dear friends, please, there is no need to be too polite today, the monarch and his subjects are having fun together, and have fun!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Before the banquet, it was a routine matter, whether it was the emperor or the ministers under him, it was inevitable to say some polite words and praises, and then the banquet officially started.

Just talking, the emperor's eyes suddenly fell on the seat of the female relatives, and asked: "I heard that Prime Minister Xiao found his long-lost sister. Today, the prime minister's niece also entered the palace? Who is it?" Come out and let me see?"

There was silence in the seats, and everyone's eyes fell on the woman next to the prime minister's wife
