Qingping Hall
Glazed wine is taken from the deep altar old wine brewed with grapes, sweet oranges and apples. The colors are also different. Purple, yellow and green have little stamina and have the meaning of health and beauty. It is most suitable for the delicate and weak concubines in the palace..
The concubines also took their seats in order.
Concubine Xihua was six months pregnant, and it was a courtesy to welcome everyone back to the palace. The empress understood this, so she sent a message to prevent her from attending, and Concubine De somehow vomited and vented this morning. Concubine De also did not attend to take care of the third prince wholeheartedly.
There were four courses of four-hour pastries and a bowl of oatmeal soup in front of An Lingrong's table. Others had more wine and less oatmeal soup than her at the table. She looked at Concubine Li, who was sitting on the opposite side.
Concubine Li was also looking at her, slightly hooked the corners of her lips, and said with concern:
"The Jade Concubine is pregnant, and the concubine has never served wine with anyone."
The queen listened, put down the ginseng black chicken soup in her hand dignifiedly and elegantly, and said:
"Pregnant women are not allowed to drink alcohol, that oatmeal soup is more elaborate than this palace."
It is said that An Lingrong has been given preferential treatment. If others had torn it up earlier, the beauty of the Jade Concubine was deeply loved by everyone in the harem.
The emperor wanted someone to treat An Lingrong well, so he only nodded and looked at An Lingrong's satisfied praise to Concubine Li:
"Concubine Li is careful, how can I have such a virtuous person who is not inferior to the queen."
The queen's face suddenly stiffened. She hid her face and drank a glass of wine, and put on a dignified smile:
"What the emperor said is that the concubines also feel that Concubine Li is virtuous and knowledgeable."
Concubine Li stood up to salute and said humbly:
"Thank you, Emperor and Empress, for your praise, but the concubines just did their duty, how can they be virtuous and virtuous? These are the results of the empress's teaching."
The queen was surprised at Concubine Li's knowledge and interest, and let her sit down generously on her face:
"Sit down, you have done an excellent job, and this palace is also very pleased."
The emperor also nodded and should be:
"The queen and I are not in the palace, and now you have taken care of it in an orderly manner when you return to the palace. It is your credit, so I will reward you with a green wish."
When the words fell, a little eunuch came up with a box of gold caskets in his hand.
But he was already ready to reward Concubine Li.
At the beginning, he said that he would reward Concubine Li, but he was delayed. Originally, at this feast, Concubine Li greeted the envious and jealous eyes of everyone, and stood up again to thank him:
"Concubine, thank the Emperor and Empress Long for your kindness."
An Lingrong and the opposite Concubine Hui looked at each other and congratulated in unison:
"Congratulations to Empress Li."
There were several congratulations in the hall, which made Concubine Li especially useful.
Zhen Huan drank a glass of fruit wine, and her heart was bitter. Liu Zhu was serving by her side. Noble Chun tasted the mung bean cake in her hand, and saw that her face was dark, and asked with concern:
"Sister Zhen is slightly uncomfortable? Could it be that this pastry is not good?"
Zhen Huan glanced at Concubine Shen, who was the last in the throne. Concubine Shen was talking and laughing with Concubine Hui, smiling like a gentle flower, and sometimes the queen answered questions like a stream, never glancing at Zhen Huan.
"It's nothing, I just got a little drunk after drinking. Liu Zhu helped me go outside to wake up."
The noble man Chun drank the fruit wine in his hand and simply believed:
"Then sister, go."
Xia Dongchun, who was sitting on the other side of Chun Noble, was speechless. Chun Noble, why didn't she think that she would eat the most and drink the most, and she was not drunk. Zhen Huan didn't drink a mouthful and only tasted the pastries, how could she be drunk..
Liu Zhu helped Zhen Huan up. In the past, Huanbi sat on these. Since the last time Huanbi fell into the water and came back, she was the one who served Zhen Huan close up.
