The day of the palace banquet came soon, Liu Guogong brought Cui Yuexi to attend together, and the three masters of the Liu family were also invited, Shen Shi did not follow into the palace because he had to take care of Liu Ruwen.

Li and Feng went in with their husbands, and this time the emperor invited officials and their families who were above the first rank.

Cui Yuexi knew very well that this trip was dangerous, but she thought that after she married Li Jing, going to and from the palace would be like a routine, even if she didn't like it, she could only get used to it.

The banquet lasted all day, and Li Shi and Feng Shi stayed by Cui Yuexi's side all the time, just worried that she would be made things difficult by the nobles in the palace.

Cui Yuexi felt extremely warm seeing the two of them inseparable.

Royal garden
Concubine Xian and the empress sat side by side, the empress probably came from a small family, even though she was very friendly sitting there, she lacked a bit of dignity.

On the other hand, Concubine Xian, who was sitting on the side, was full of nobility in her gestures, leaving the empress far behind.

When Concubine Xian saw Cui Yuexi's arrival, her eyes flashed with admiration, but she underestimated Cui Yuexi. This girl is really a lucky girl. Ever since Li Jing got engaged to her, good things happened. She said that she could pick up golden bumps when she stumbled. In this way, Li Jing just took Cui Yuexi to Jingting Mountain to find such a large gold mine. This is really unlucky.

"Yuexi, come here to concubine mother."

Concubine Xian looked at Cui Yuexi with a smile. When she looked at Cui Yuexi in the past, there was a bit of negligence in her eyes, but now looking at her is like looking at her own daughter, and the joy in her eyes cannot be hidden.

Seeing that Concubine Xian was calling her name, Cui Yuexi got up and walked towards Concubine Xian. Her steps were steady, neither in a hurry nor slow. salute.

Concubine Xian hurriedly stood up and helped her, "Yuexi, Concubine Mother, let me introduce you. It's only Concubine Hui."

Following Concubine Xian's introduction, Cui Yuexi bowed to everyone one by one. Concubine Xian pulled her to sit beside her. The purpose was obvious, which was to make people look jealous.

"Concubine Xian..." Cui Yuexi was interrupted by Concubine Xian just as she spoke.

"You and I have a long-standing marriage contract, so it is inevitable to call me this palace unfamiliar. You are just like Jing'er, just call me concubine mother."

Cui Yuexi couldn't accept this progress, it was too fast.

"Mother, concubine mother..."

Cui Yuexi called out tentatively, and the smile on Concubine Xian's face widened.

"My concubine will give you some good things later, you can pick whatever you want, and you can't just change your mind."

Seeing Concubine Xian's enthusiastic appearance, Cui Yuexi felt a faint uneasiness in her heart, but she felt relieved when she thought about the struggle among the women in the harem.

"Thank you mother-in-law."

Cui Yuexi didn't take it seriously, Concubine Xian took her hand and patted it gently, the more she looked at her, the more she liked it.

Although Concubine Xian lived in the harem, she was surrounded by experts, and she knew everything Cui Yuexi did for Li Jing.

She is not a heartless person, but she is used to jealousy in the harem and doesn't trust anyone.

But Cui Yuexi's feelings for Li Jing, she can see, as someone who has experienced it, she is happy that her son can meet such a person who knows the cold and the hot.

Her son was happy, so naturally she, the mother, was also happy.

"Wait a minute, Jing'er was called by the emperor to Qichen Hall to discuss matters, and she will be here later, are you hungry?"

Concubine Xian asked Cui Yuexi, who shook her head.

"Mother, I'm not hungry."

After the words fell, the chief eunuch sang, "The emperor is here, and Prince Jing is here."

The emperor came first, and Li Jing followed behind.

The emperor went directly to sit between the empress and concubine Xian, and when he saw Cui Yuexi, surprise flashed in his eyes.

"You really look like Qin Qin."

When the emperor saw Cui Yuexi, he thought of Liu Qinqin, that gentle and tough cousin.

Cui Yuexi saluted hurriedly, but was stopped by the emperor waving.

"Concubine Xian is very lucky to have such a good daughter-in-law."

Concubine Xian lowered her head slightly when she heard the words, a look of disgust flashed quickly in her eyes.

"Yuexi is also the emperor's daughter-in-law, and the emperor is happy with the concubine."

Concubine Xian obviously had something in her words, Cui Yuexi stood quietly aside, knowing that Concubine Xian was resentful towards the emperor, but her words were so ingenious that no one could hear her mistakes.

The emperor smiled heartily, "Aifei is right, we are all happy."

Many ministers and their family members rushed to congratulate, compliments came from all around, and the emperor laughed from ear to ear.

Li Jing walked to Cui Yuexi's side, took her hand and took her to the side to sit.

As the chief eunuch sang, the palace banquet officially began. The emperor and other ministers watched the boring singing and dancing as usual, but Cui Yuexi didn't think much of it, and focused on eating with her head down.

After all, imperial meals in the palace are not available to anyone who wants to eat them. Li Jing can tell Cui Yuexi's favorite dishes based on the number of times she moves her chopsticks.

There is no more than three principles in life and affairs, and the women in the inner courtyard also abide by the rules on weekdays. Even if they encounter their favorite dishes, they can only pick up three chopsticks at most.

When Cui Yuexi ate something, if she didn't like it, she only took one bite and then changed the dish. She actually picked up the dish three times after it was mailed. Her delicate face couldn't hide her disappointment, obviously she didn't eat enough.

"Thank you."

Cui Yuexi knew that Li Jing was careful, but he didn't expect him to observe so carefully and happily ate the dishes on the dinner plate.

Concubine Xian saw the interaction between the two of them in her eyes, and suddenly she was a little envious of Cui Yuexi, who was able to meet a man who really cared for her and loved her.

But after thinking about it, if it wasn't for her not being able to raise such a good son to love Cui Yuexi, she would only feel a sense of accomplishment.

Cui Yuexi sensed that someone was watching her, and when she looked up, she saw Concubine Xian was looking at her intently.

Cui Yuexi smiled slightly, and Li Jing noticed the two people's gazes, and lowered his voice to remind.

"Don't worry about the concubine mother, you just need to rest assured to eat."

Cui Yuexi agreed, smiling with crooked eyebrows, that look is really cute.

The Fifth Prince was sitting opposite, his eyes fixed on Li Jing's side. He had received news before that Li Jing's ears could not hear the sound at all, but seeing him and Cui Yuexi talking and laughing all the time, it didn't matter at all. Like the case of ear disease.

But the honest monk has been living in Liu Guogong's mansion and has not left for a long time. Is it purely for Liu Ruwen's treatment?
Li Jing moved to live in Liu Guogong's mansion early on. The fifth prince tried to find the problem, but he couldn't see any problem.

The honest monk has no fixed place to live, and it is impossible for Li Jing to predict when he will appear in advance, and move to live in Liu Guogong's mansion before then, and it just so happens that something happened to Liu Ruwen, and the honest monk suddenly appeared.

The fifth prince was in a mess, but he still couldn't find the answer. He was drinking wine glass by glass, and his eyes kept wandering between Li Jing and Cui Yuexi.
