Chapter 547 The Palace Banquet Ends
Prince Beifeng: "I think you are crazy. You have to wait until tomorrow anyway. Today is a great day for the East and West Phoenix Emperor to ascend the throne. Don't seek bad luck here."
Princess Zhaoyang was taken aback, and immediately made a sad face: "Why does the prince brother say that, and why does he describe the marriage as bringing bad luck to others? Is the prince brother sure that the marriage will not work?
Or is it that the prince’s brother wants to disobey his father’s wishes and does not want to marry with the Xifeng Kingdom at all, but he has your own plans?”
Prince Beifeng glared at her: "Don't use your father to pressure me. Eat in peace. If you don't want to eat, just shut up. I have my own rules regarding marriage."
Prince Beifeng really didn't want to see Princess Zhaoyang hate getting married. Emperor Xifeng had just boarded the plane and had not even gone to court yet, so he came to discuss marriage with her.
Also, haven't you seen that there is only one queen next to Emperor Xifeng, and there is no table behind them? All the people standing there are maids and eunuchs, waiting for them to eat.
What's more, Emperor Xifeng has been helping the queen pick up the food, and he has almost never moved his mouth.
What does this mean? It means that Emperor Xifeng and his wife are very affectionate, and there is only one woman, the queen.
Talking about marriage at this time is not about looking for bad luck.
She, a concubine, doesn't even have any self-awareness. He would offend the Xifeng Emperor for a concubine, and he has no brains.
Princess Zhaoyang was so angry that she put down her chopsticks and sat sulking.
"Are you full? Are you tired? If you are, let Yueying take you back?"
When Murong Li saw that Su Yue's appetite had decreased, he asked her.
Su Yue nodded: "I'm full. I'm really tired today. I'll go down and talk to my mother, and then I'll go back to the palace."
Murong Li nodded: "Then be careful."
After Su Yue hummed, she asked Yue Ying to help her go down to the main hall and to the women's banquet. The eldest lady and the others were at the front table.
"Yue'er, why are you down here? Have you eaten?"
When the eldest lady saw Su Yue coming down, she quickly put down her chopsticks and went up to catch her.
"Mom, please sit down quickly. I've finished eating and I just came to see you."
Su Yong asked Madam to sit down quickly, and then greeted Luo Meiting, Aunt Yao, and Su Yan: "Sister-in-law, Aunt Yao, and sister Yan'er."
The three of them hurriedly stood up and were about to salute, but Su Yong stopped them: "Sister-in-law is inconvenient, please sit down quickly. There are also Aunt Yao and Sister Yan'er."
Only Luo Meiting sat down, Aunt Yao and Su Yan still lowered themselves to Su Yuefu.
"I have met you, the Queen. I congratulate the Queen!"
"I have met the Queen, my congratulations to the Queen!"
Su Yue smiled and said: "Thank you very much. Aunt Yao, sister Yan'er, sit down quickly. How is sister Yan'er lately?"
Su Yan is now sixteen years old this year. She is tall and graceful, with a calm expression. She does not look like she was born of the same mother as the previous Su Yan.
In the past, Su Yan had a petty air, her eyes were filled with envy, jealousy, hatred and calculations, but now that was gone, her eyes were clear, and she only felt joy when she saw Su Yue.
Su Yue really likes Su Yan now.
As long as she stays like this, she will guarantee her wealth for the rest of her life.
Su Yan smiled and said: "My dear, my queen, I am very good."
"We are a family here, so you should call me big sister."
Su Yue is not used to being so estranged from her family.
Su Yan nodded and called Su Yue sweetly: "Sister."
"That's right. Is there anyone you like?" Su Yue asked.
Su Yan shook her head shyly.
The eldest lady took over the conversation and said: "I visited one of them some time ago, and the boy seemed to be a good one, but he can't stand the test."
Su Yue nodded: "Since there is no suitable one, don't worry for now. Let's take a look after the big exam. Then let Murong Li choose one for sister Yan'er."
It means the gift of marriage.
Marriage granted by the emperor may not be a good thing for girls from other families, but what an honor it is for a concubine like Su Yan.
Su Yan and Aunt Yao were immediately overjoyed, and they all thanked Su Yue.
Su Yue waved her hands to them, "I hope Sister Yan'er will like it then."
Aunt Yao said: "It was given by the emperor, how could you not like it?"
The person the emperor refers to is at least not too bad in character.
Su Yue smiled, chatted with them for a few more words, then got up and left.
The eldest lady looked at Su Yue's leaving back, thoughtfully. Looking at Yue'er's walking posture, it seemed that she had something, but Yue'er didn't mention it, so she was probably still young.
If it really happened, she would be relieved.
Yue'er has been getting married for several years and has nothing to show for it. Now that she is the queen again, she will be criticized by others. Those talkative ministers will make the new emperor accept more people in the harem, so Yue'er will be very sad.
Su Yan's mother and daughter looked at Su Yong who was leaving. They shook hands tightly, then looked at each other and smiled, their eyes full of joy.
Aunt Yao sighed in her heart, lamenting her original decision. If she had been as confused as Aunt Zhang, mother and daughter would not know where they were today.
Their table has long attracted the attention of others, especially the male guests. Many unmarried young men looked at Su Yan. She was the queen's sister, and she was good-looking. Several family members were thinking about it.
I will go to Guogong Mansion tomorrow to propose marriage.
In this kind of thing, strike first to gain advantage, but strike later to suffer disaster.
Everyone's eyes were not only on Su Yan, but also on Su Qiming and Su Qicheng. Those two men were unmarried. They married their daughters to the Duke's mansion, and they would become rich and wealthy in the future.
Some people are even keeping an eye on Su Qiwen, who is the emperor's brother-in-law and has only one legitimate wife, so he can marry his concubine to her as his aunt.
It is better to be his aunt than to be someone else's wife.
There was no such thing as keeping an eye on Murong Li's harem. Normally, the ministers knew who he was. If anyone wanted to send his daughter to his backyard, he would be prepared to collect his daughter's body.
Wealth makes people jealous, but one must also have the life to enjoy it.
Su Yue is still living in the East Palace for the time being. As soon as she comes back, she goes into the space, washes up and comes out to sleep.
She is very drowsy now, and she has to endure it all the time in the main hall, otherwise she would have been yawning for two days.
The people in the main hall ate and drank to their heart's content. Everyone exchanged cups and cups until the end of the Xu period.
The guests were entertained by people from the Etiquette Department. As soon as the banquet was over, Murong Li returned to the East Palace.
Seeing Su Yue sleeping deeply, he kissed her on the lips, turned around and came out to explain, and went to the imperial study room.
There are a lot of things that haven't been dealt with today, so I have to work overtime to deal with them.
Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.
General Wei and Uncle Su have been respectful to each other for a long time.
"I see you, Your Majesty."
When they saw him coming, they hurriedly knelt down and saluted.
"Please get up quickly."
Murong Li helped the two of them up, and the three of them entered the royal study.
"Your Majesty, what should we do with the Lin family?"
As soon as he entered, General Wei asked.
Chapter completed!
