The Rebirth of Jiangmen's Daughter

Chapter 1309 Xiaonian Palace Banquet ([-])

Ye Qingcheng and Yuan Xuwan watched with trepidation. It is true that the Empress Dowager has always favored Prince Xiang's Mansion, but if Lin really offends the Empress Dowager today, things may not go as they thought.

Now that the two of them intend to ease their relationship, Ye Qingcheng and Yuan Xuwan are naturally happy to see the result. Originally, Yuan Xuwan is a good at making fun, and Ye Qingcheng echoed it, and the atmosphere in Yongshou Palace soon became lively.

But within an hour, a court lady came to invite the Queen Mother, saying that the time for the palace banquet was approaching, Ye Qingcheng and the others got up to leave immediately, but they were stopped by the Queen Mother.

"Today, you came to the Aijia's Yongshou Palace as guests first. Naturally, Aijia took you there with you. When you left like this, people who didn't know said that Aijia didn't treat guests well. It was really wrong to send you first. You, mother and daughter, eat a few snacks first, and Rong Ai's family go to change clothes first."

Although the queen mother said so politely, how could Ye Qingcheng's mother and daughter dare to take it seriously, they hurriedly got up and sent the queen mother to change clothes in the inner room, and then a palace maid presented cakes, and Ye Qingcheng, Lin Shi and Yuan Xuwan ate a small piece each , the queen mother came out.

Ye Qingcheng's mother and daughter hurried up to greet her, the Queen Mother supported Cui Yu's hand, and the group walked towards Qingyun Hall together.

In Qingyun Hall, except for Emperor Zhaowu and the Queen Mother, the rest of the people attending the palace banquet had already arrived. Seeing that the Queen Mother came with Ye Qingcheng, everyone knelt down to pay their respects.

"Get up, everyone, today is the New Year's Palace Banquet, don't be restrained, take your seats!"

Although the queen mother said so, who would dare to stand up and sit down?The queen mother and her elders didn't even sit, so how dare they take their seats first?

With Cui Yu's support, the Empress Dowager walked to the top table that was on the same level as Emperor Zhaowu and sat down. After Ye Qingcheng also took her seat, the people kneeling on the ground got up one after another and returned to their seats.

When Emperor Zhaowu came, the main hall was almost full, he and Huangfu Xun came together, the people sitting in the Qingyun Hall suddenly had a few turns in their hearts, and then got up again to salute and greet.

Emperor Zhaowu smiled all over his face, waved his hand indifferently, went straight to the Empress Dowager and saluted, and then sat down in front of his own desk.

"Today is the Xiaonian palace banquet. I thought that you are all ministers of the humerus of Daying, and you cannot share the New Year's Eve party member's night with all the lords, so I will gather with you on Xiaonian. I will drink this cup first, and wish us all the best!" Daying Haiyan and Heqing, peace every year!"

Emperor Zhaowu's voice was thick and powerful, and immediately resounded through the hall. Everyone saw that Emperor Zhaowu drank the wine in the glass with a tilt of his neck.

Ye Qingcheng looked up at the Queen Mother in surprise, and saw the Queen Mother looking at her with eyes full of smiles. Everyone was drinking just now, so Ye Qingcheng naturally couldn't refuse. When she picked up the wine bottle in front of her, she felt a little uncomfortable after a meal. After taking a sip, it turned out to be mellow sweet-scented osmanthus wine, and then she looked towards the queen mother.

The smile in the queen mother's eyes clearly told her that it was the queen mother's handwriting. Ye Qingcheng was grateful for the appropriate arrangement of the queen mother, and raised the wine glass filled with sweet-scented osmanthus in front of her, and respected the queen mother from afar.

Just when the Empress Dowager was about to drink the wine toasted by Ye Qingcheng, a clear and crisp voice sounded out of place in the hall.

"What's wrong with Princess Xiang? But the reception in the palace is not good enough, and Princess Xiang is allowed to drink by herself?"
