The peasant girl is not strong

So Ye Shiqi sent a bag to the palace man who led the way as a reward, although it was secretly, but she saw some people doing this!
Mrs. Li took the other three daughters with her, who dared not look left and right behind, and followed closely!
"The identities of the wives and ladies attending the palace banquet today are sedan chairs arranged according to rank. Like your family, the old women are ordinary wives, and those of you who don't have official positions and want wives and ladies can't sit in sedan chairs. Come along! "

The eunuch took the money and still acted like a businessman. Is this intentional, or was someone ordered?

Does the said rule vary from person to person, or is it a special treatment?
Ye Shiqi only thinks that money is being fed to dogs!
Helpless, I can only support my grandmother with my fourth sister on the left and right.

Mrs. Li took the other three daughters with her, who dared not look left and right behind, and followed closely!
Ye Shiqi's eyes didn't look wildly, but she could still observe the gardens and the buildings with gorgeous sculptures from the corners of her eyes!
It is worthy of being called the imperial palace. It is even more gorgeous and huge than the Forbidden City she visited before!
The dynasties and palaces in this book are also so gorgeous. Just these decorations and buildings, the annual construction and maintenance will cost a lot of money, right?

Living in this palace is truly the pinnacle of life. Every plant and tree here is so precious!

Can the person sitting at the top and the people living here know the sufferings of the world?

Ye Shiqi was born in the countryside at a young age. She could feel the miserable situation of farmers who work until they are exhausted for a year and may not be able to save a few pennies. They may even encounter natural or man-made disasters and may choose to flee famine and become refugees!
If you encounter these things, you can only die unlucky!

Not to mention the food is good, the food that I usually eat..., getting enough to eat is also a problem!
Ye Shiqi only felt tired from walking. The weight of the two sisters' arms was supporting their grandmother. The old lady was also quite tired!
But they didn't dare to stay. It was already sunset when they walked in the garden. It's easy to get dark in winter. There were many red lanterns hanging in the garden, which gave it a bit of a festive atmosphere!

Under the illumination of red lanterns, they finally arrived at the banquet venue and were arranged to a place far away. This was a luxurious shantytown specially built for the banquet.

At this time of year, it is specially built for the banquet, and the disassembly after the banquet will keep many people busy for a while!
The palace banquet not only consumes manpower and material resources, but also shows the prosperity of a country!

It was the first time for Ye Shiqi and the others to attend such a banquet. Like them, the first-time attendees were probably family members of high-ranking officials who had just entered Beijing!
The only one as special as their Ye family, so eye-catching!
There are already many court ladies and eunuchs, busy among their guests, serving drinks and snacks!

The banquet hadn't even started yet, and the people Shui Duoduo knew in twos and twos might all be arranged next door before the banquet, and they had a whispered discussion!
There are too many people, men and women sit at the banquet, whispering will be the same as the market, the evening wind blows, and the cold will make people feel lively!
In the cold and drafty protection area of ​​the banquet, there are stoves everywhere for people who wear less clothes for the sake of beauty, to absorb a little warmth while shivering!

Ye Shiqi sat beside her grandmother and mother. They came, but they didn't dare to drink more water or eat more food!
I don't know if it was arranged on purpose. Their seats are next to the air outlet, and they are not close to the stove!
Fortunately, they will not wear less clothes for the sake of beauty, so that even with a hand stove in their hands, they can feel the cold wind at night, which is wet and cold.

"The King is here"

"The empress has arrived"

Amidst the noisy voices, a eunuch suddenly called loudly, and the lively voice immediately fell silent. Everyone immediately stood up in their seats, knelt down, and said in unison: "Long live the emperor, long live the emperor, and the queen is a thousand years old!" age!"

When everyone lowered their heads and did not dare to look up, the emperor was escorted to the high banquet by a group of people. The queen was also escorting him, and the crowd came down to the place next to the emperor!
Then following them came the followers of the emperor and the queen, the concubines, princes and princesses!
There were 200 people who followed, and when the emperor sat down, all those who followed them sat down!

The emperor looked at these kneeling people from above, and glanced at the audience, not knowing whether he was old and dim-sighted, or he had already made up his mind, glanced at the man's side, and then looked at the female family members.

At this time, everyone was in the form of kneeling and bowing. They all lowered their heads, and everyone's appearance could not be seen clearly. People who the emperor knew knew the person's figure and identity, and those who hadn't seen it could only guess. Who is the family.

Finally, his eyes were fixed on the father and son of the Ye family, and on the female family members of the Ye family.

The old emperor has seen from the face of this middle-aged Chinese character what General Ye looked like more than ten years ago, the son and grandson of this general without force, his face is expressionless!
Look, the clothes are not comfortable at all, other ministers, women, old ladies, middle-aged women and young and beautiful ladies!
The emperor's eyes are also among these ladies, guess which one is the one for the draft?

His eyes were only determined for a moment, no one else could guess, only the eunuch next to him and the queen sitting beside him noticed it!
The old emperor's eyes hinted, and the chief eunuch and chief eunuch next to him asked everyone to worship him.

Everyone returned to their original positions, but they still didn't dare to look at the emperor and queen!
Only the emperor's sons, daughters, concubines, and those ministers dared to look up at the emperor and empress.

The emperor's face was expressionless, and only the queen smiled as she presided over this palace banquet.

The first is to name some talented women and present their talents to them. In the middle of the palace banquet, this is a temporary stage. Anyone who wants to show their talents will ask the eunuch or maid to carry out the tools!

There are also some talented women who can bring their own musical instruments!
As for talents, there are many kinds, such as painting and writing poems. For talents like mine, I will make use of the items in the palace.

For Meng Zhaojun's dedication of talent this time, she chose to play the piano. Among the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, the piano is her best.

She is very confident. Although she is not very old, she wants to impress others in this palace banquet. She came with her mother and grandmother, and her father's position is not enough to attend such a banquet!

Of course, we must seize this opportunity to get to know all the dignitaries, and also hope to leave a deep impression on the concubines and princes in the emperor and empress palace!

Of course, there were other purposes as well. After she played the song, she looked at the ladies of the Ye family and quietly returned to her place.

She is secretly rubbing her hands now, and the fun has begun again!
