The Empress Dowager

Chapter 192 Palace Banquet ([-])

Song Ruoning didn't stay in the bamboo forest for three days and three nights, but was brought out by Xian Ying that night. Even so, Song Ruoning was still quite frightened.

Another month passed in a blink of an eye, and the palace hosted a banquet for the princes and ministers to bring their children to the palace to gather.

In Zhenguohou's Mansion, Nangongjian, Jiang's family and Nangonglin were naturally going to the banquet, and concubines were not eligible to attend such occasions.

Nangong Yue didn't care, she went to Ziyun Academy early, Nangong Yue arrived at Ziyun Academy, but Murong Yu didn't go to the palace yet.

Nangong Yue looked at Murong Yu who was walking towards him, and blessed Fuli: "My lord is going to the palace?"

Murong Yu paused, looked at Nangong Yue with eyes, and said Qingrun: "Yes, and no."

"It's getting late now, if the prince wants to go to the palace, there's still time, I'm leaving first, I'm going to class soon."

"You better not go to class, go to the palace with me." Murong Yu said.

Murong Yu told her to go to the palace, did she hear correctly?And she didn't want to go to the palace either, the intrigues in that place were annoying to death.

Nangong Yue waved her hand: "I still won't go."

"Where do you eat at noon?"

Nangong Yue shook her head, she hadn't thought about this question yet.

"Since you have nowhere to go, go to the palace with me, so that you won't have to eat indiscriminately."

Nangong Yue raised her eyebrows. It turned out that Murong Yu was concerned about her food, so he could just go, at worst, she would just sit far away.

Nangong Yue sat in Murong Yu's carriage and arrived at the gate of the palace about half an hour later. Nangong Yue stepped out of the carriage. The difference was that this time, except for the carriage, all the princes and ladies had already entered the palace. Come here they are late.

Nangong Yue followed Murong Yu to Chunhua Palace. At this time, all the ministers and family members sat down. The emperor, empress, and queen mother had not yet arrived.

Nangong Yue found a seat at the back and sat down so that no one would notice her.

"The emperor and the empress are here." Eunuch Lu, the chief eunuch, raised his voice and shouted.

"Long live the emperor, long live the emperor, and the queen a thousand years ago."

"My dear friends, please rise up! Let's hold a banquet today, don't talk about state affairs, just enjoy yourself." The emperor walked to the high seat and sat down. This was the first time Nangong Yue saw the emperor of Jiuli. After taking a look, he was in his 40s, dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, with a strong body, not fat, and a face as delicate as a knife. At this moment, he felt approachable.

Nangong Yue shook her head, she must have misread it, he doesn't like Murong Yu so much, and his personality is not much better after all.

The queen on the high platform was dressed in a multicolored golden phoenix court dress, with a phoenix crown on her head. She had a very handsome face, a pair of red phoenix eyes that were charming and charming, her skin was fair and moist, and her skin was well maintained.

Nangong Yue frowned, the queen seemed to have a prejudice against her, she had better act carefully, so as not to let others take the wrong place.

At this moment, a group of dancers walked onto the stage in the middle with light gauzes in their hands. Suddenly, the sound of silk and bamboo sounded, and bursts of melodious voices echoed in the hall, and the dancers began to dance lightly.

At the same time, the ladies of the court came in with various dishes, and the aroma wafted away, which whetted the appetite.Nangong Yue didn't care much, picked up the chopsticks and started to eat the dishes, looking up at the performance on the stage from time to time.

After the dancers finished a dance and retired, Eunuch Lu took out a list and let the ladies perform their talents.
