The imperial concubine is favored by the Six Palaces again

Chapter 66

Meng Chengye thought for a while before remembering that Concubine Liu Shu had indeed worn that one when she was a child.

Meng Chengye frowned: "It's not appropriate for Concubine Shu to wear green."

The queen mother raised her eyebrows and said nothing.

Just suddenly remembered the concubine Chen of the first emperor.

The first emperor didn't like coriander, but the concubine Chen liked it very much, but the first emperor would accompany concubine Chen to eat coriander every time he had a meal.

The mother and son didn't say anything more, Zhang Huadian was ahead, and the little eunuch had already passed it on.

As soon as Meng Chengye helped the Queen Mother go in, everyone stood up to greet her.

Meng Chengye saw Jiang Yuming at a glance in the crowd.

She is wearing the hair accessory I gave you yesterday, it suits her very well, well, I really have a good eye.

Thinking of this, Meng Chengye felt much better.

After sitting down, it’s time to watch singing and dancing. It’s boring. There’s also orchestral music. It’s not boring. Sitting like this is really not interesting.

The main reason is that most of the things on the banquet look exquisite, but in fact the taste is not very good.

Some dishes are served cold for the sake of aesthetics, but those dishes are delicious only when they are warm.

Jiang Yuming lost his appetite after a few bites.

No wonder Xiao Huazi persuaded her to eat more in the afternoon.

Jiang Yuming didn't have anything delicious to eat, so he could only grab some fruit and eat it.

Halfway through the singing and dancing, the maids brought up mooncakes, which were served on delicate small plates, and there were three small and exquisite mooncakes on it.

Jiang Yuming picked up the mooncake and tasted it. It was Wuren's.

But unexpectedly delicious.

The five-nut mooncakes at this time are not like modern five-nut mooncakes. The ancient five-nut mooncakes are made of almonds, peach kernels, olive kernels, melon seeds and sesame seeds, and are served with lotus seed paste or jujube paste. The taste is still very good.

The lotus paste is sweet, while the jujube paste is sweet and sour.

I love both of these Jiang Yuming.

Let’s talk about this five-nut mooncake. In ancient times, only high-ranking officials and nobles could afford it. Therefore, this five-nut mooncake can also be regarded as a status symbol.

Because the materials used are relatively expensive and the workmanship is delicate and complicated, ordinary people do not make moon cakes with five kernels.

Most of them are made with lotus paste and jujube paste or some red beans are added to make do with it, and salted egg yolks are added for those with better conditions.

Jiang Yuming was quite happy eating here, but Wei Cairen on the other side looked at the Wuren mooncakes but felt a little nauseated and couldn't eat it.

Wei Cairen mistook it for morning sickness, so he didn't pay much attention.

Concubine Shen De, who was sitting at the top, lowered her eyes and touched the teacup in front of her.

After the moon cakes were presented, the dancers' singing and dancing came to an end, followed by the concubines' performances.

Ning Guiren's dance was the first one. Ning Guiren changed into light white clothes. He danced gracefully and moved gracefully. With that white dress, he looked like Chang'e descending to earth. In Jiang Yuming's opinion, it was exceptionally good.

Sure enough, Meng Chengye also boasted a few words with certainty.

I thought Ning Guiren was enough to amaze everyone, but who would have thought that Jin Cairen, who will play later, directly overwhelmed Ning Guiren with a song "Dancing in the Hand".

It is not an exaggeration to say that the sentence is as graceful as a frightened bird, and as gentle as a dragon swimming.

On the contrary, Ning Guiren who was in front of him threw a brick to attract jade.

But judging by Jin Cairen's figure, I'm afraid he has practiced dancing since he was a child.

Jiang Yuming was envious of her slender waist and belly without a trace of fat.

Ning Gui snorted, and sat down in dissatisfaction and took a bite of the mooncake.

With the jewels and jades of talented people in front, the singing and dancing of the concubines in the back seemed overshadowed.

Sure enough, on the second night after the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, Jin Cairen was picked up by Fengluan Chunen car.

　Today is also a day to miss him, but I dare not disturb him, for fear that he will find me annoying
