The Regent's Concubine

Chapter 21 So He Knows Already

Long Yunqin propped half of his head on the table, feeling a little sluggish. It was more than an hour before the banquet, in other words, three hours, but the noise had already entered the Chonghua Palace.

Xia Yu ran several times in a row, showing off her fun-loving temperament, and let her know the inside and outside of the news.

"His Royal Highness, tonight is an incredible scene. This is the first time that the head servant has seen so many officials gathered in the palace. The Chengde Palace in front is full of people, and there are also a few palace ladies resting in the side palace. The servants looked at the beauties of these ladies and ladies from a distance, as if they were all waiting for the banquet tonight!"

"You have a bad mouth, you girl, no matter how good-looking you are, you can compare with Her Majesty the Princess, and those women are all thinking of climbing high branches and dreaming of flying to the branches to become phoenixes tonight, and that little thought is written on their faces." Chunlan stopped Xia Yu's words, those people were just for the occasion, and the main character today is General Zhenbei.But looking at the princess's complexion, it seems that she is not very good.

"Princess, but you're not feeling well?" Chunlan was a little worried. His Highness the Second Prince sent someone over early this morning, saying that His Highness the Princess must attend this celebration banquet, and the Emperor asked the Princess to attend by name.

Long Yunqin waved her hand, she was just thinking about how to talk to General Zuo Xi without attracting others' attention, she made up her mind not to rely on Ling Che's help, she wanted to rely on her own ability.

"It's nothing, go and bring the bird's nest, I'll eat some first." When the celebration banquet started, it was just for show. Preparations for the Jiji Banquet two months later.Long Yunqin has always acted in a low-key manner. Although there are constant negative news, not many people have actually seen her.

After eating a bowl of bird's nest, she was almost half full, so she asked Qiu Ju and Chunlan to help her change her clothes. After everything was ready, it was almost an hour.Xia Yu pushed the door open again and came in, with rare excitement on her face, "Eunuch Cao is waiting for you outside Chonghua Palace, if the princess is ready for your servants, let the one who picks you up come in."

In the palace, besides the emperor, the Regent is the only one who can be kicked out. Now that the princesses are treated like this, the emperor really dotes on their master.

But Long Yunqin's heart sank, Long Haotian's actions were too conspicuous, which undoubtedly made her a target of public criticism, and she was already stared at by countless pairs of eyes.

Getting up, she asked Chunlan and Dongmei to follow out of the main hall, "Xia Yu and Qiu Ju are guarding the Chonghua Palace."

When Eunuch Cao saw Long Yunqin coming out, he immediately led a group of young eunuchs to meet him, neither humble nor overbearing but respectful, "Your Highness, the emperor asked this old servant to wait. If the princess is well, please go up."

She glanced at the dragon, it was not the emperor's dragon dragon, but it was also extremely luxurious, she couldn't sit still in this dragon.

"I know about my father's love for me, but the distance is not far away. Now that the celebration banquet has not yet started, it's the same if I bring people over there. Besides, my father can't live without people, so Eunuch Cao should hurry back to my father." It is important to serve by your side."

Eunuch Cao wanted to say something more, but Long Yunqin had already passed him and walked towards the outside of Chonghua Palace.Eunuch Cao's eyes paused for a moment, and he didn't say anything more, leading the group back the same way.However, the perception of Long Yunqin has changed a lot in my heart. It seems that Her Royal Highness has grown up a bit.

The time for the celebration banquet was approaching, and Long Yunqin stepped into the Chengde Hall. There were groups of three or five gathered together in the hall, chatting about it, and it was very lively.I don't know who yelled, and everyone looked in her direction, and there was no sound for a while.

Long Yunqin didn't seem to see those anxious eyes, walked into the hall calmly, and responded to the officials and others who came forward to salute, indifferent but not alienated.

After finding her seat and sitting down, she let Chunlan wait on her and stopped talking.At this time, the feast had not yet begun, and she did not want to attract attention.

On the other side, Wen Renmo and Long Hexiang, who just met with a group of people, saw the commotion just now.Wen Renmo has set his eyes on her since Long Yunqin entered the Chengde Hall, the thin and stubborn face in his mind overlapped and staggered with the woman not far away, and in the end even he himself was surprised.She was completely different from what he remembered!
"Second prince, is it true that Her Highness the Princess is as rumored as she is with such etiquette and thoughtfulness?" Wen Renmo poured the wine into his mouth, and casually chatted with the people around him.

Long Hexiang was also puzzled by the scene just now. Logically, Long Yunqin would not be so thoughtful. She hated these false etiquettes the most. Even when facing the fourth concubine, she was indifferent.But just now, no matter whether he advances or retreats, he is so appropriate, so he can't find a single mistake.

"I can't tell, it's really different." Long Hexiang smiled, as if grasping some key point, "Did you change your mind? Are you interested in her again?"

Wen Renmo stared at his friend, and gave up on seeing the other person until he got scared. He sat down and said, "It's about to start."

As soon as the words fell, a high-pitched tenor voice followed, and two rows of maids walked into Chengde Hall one by one carrying palace lanterns. After a while, a bright yellow figure came in. Long Haotian followed Eunuch Cao, and behind him was the fourth concubine. A group of people all surrounded the emperor, and the scene was dazzling.

Everyone knelt down on the ground and shouted long live, until the emperor Long Haotian sat down before shouting flat!
As soon as the ministers got up, there was another shout from outside the hall that the Lord Regent had arrived, and they saluted again.

Long Yunqin felt impatience in his body and mind a few times, especially Ling Che's unintentional whisper when he approached her, which made her even more annoyed.

Sitting across from you is your future husband-in-law!Ling Che said this to her.

As soon as Long Yunqin raised his head, he saw Wen Renmo, the general of Zhenbei, facing her. She was being teased by Ling Che!

When Wen Renmo took his seat, he felt a strong gaze from the opposite side, and suddenly raised his head to meet Long Yunqin's gaze unexpectedly, and the two of them were stunned before they looked away.

All this was seen by Long Haotian, the corners of his mouth turned up in a good mood, could it be that the fate between Huanger and Wenrenmo has arrived?

"Today is a day of great joy for my court. General Zhenbei has guarded the border for many years, and now he has returned in triumph. I am very pleased, and I should share the joy with all my lovers."

"My Emperor Shengming!"

"All lovers are welcome, today's protagonist is General Zhenbei, the celebration banquet begins."

The emperor acquiesced, this was the beginning, the courtiers naturally followed suit, and Wen Renmo started to be attacked by the second round of drinking, and it was the end after three rounds of drinking.But Wen Renmo's face was still sober, without the slightest hint of drunkenness, and Long Yunqin couldn't help being surprised. He should have drank less than a jar of wine, and it was highly concentrated liquor.

Long Yunqin was speechless, eating some snacks by himself, and at the same time accepted the ladies who came up to salute her one after another.

The sound of silk and bamboo wind music in the main hall was endless, and there were many daughters of officials who participated in the performances, in order to show off at this feast and attract the attention of those young talents and high-ranking emperors.
