Waste materials against the sky: the emperor's only favorite daughter-in-law

Chapter 47
After An Yi ran away that day, someone in the palace came to spread the word, saying that the empress was hosting a banquet in the palace, and the young ladies and gentlemen of all families were invited to tell.

It is already the end of the year, so it is natural that there will be more banquets from all parties. However, the ladies of the queen's family have many speculations about the banquet this time. Some say it is to find a concubine for Jun Lintian, and some say it is to find a concubine for Jun Muyue , there are different opinions, both ladies and young masters are all very concerned about this matter.

It had been snowing for a long time, but it showed signs of stopping today. An Mujin was lazily leaning on the imperial concubine's couch, and Shuiyue came in from the outside, looking at her master with a relaxed look.Unavoidably some worries.

"I said girl, why are you not worried at all! Didn't the empress send someone to send invitations a few days ago? I heard that this year's banquet will be a little different from previous years. The second and third misses are like Like crazy, thinking about what to wear to the party all day long. You are not in a hurry."

Shuiyue has nothing to do with her master.I had to deliberately complain to her, hoping that she could dictate it.

"Shuiyue, why are you so wordy today, I have my own plans for the banquet, you can put your heart in your stomach."

An Mujin turned around and continued to rest.Shuiyue felt a little helpless, so she had to go to see the charcoal stove and add two pieces of charcoal by the way.To say that the charcoal has a lot of background, the charcoal fires in previous years were all distributed by the Hou Mansion, and there is not much left at An Mujin's place, so it is inevitable to suffer from some cold.

Not long ago, King Chen sent someone to Huashan to cut some beautiful pines, burn them into charcoal, and cut them into beads.The beauty pine itself has a peculiar fragrance, which can also soothe the nerves.Chen Wang is also really caring.

The next day, Shuiyue waited outside the door early, and An Mujin didn't get up for a long time. Shuiyue was anxious, so she called out from the door: "Girl, are you okay? The people in the second room are all ready, just wait is you."

An Mujin opened the door, Shuiyue stood under the eaves, and said calmly, "Let's go."

An Mujin was wearing a long skirt with water patterns and fringe today, and her three thousand blue silk was tied behind her ear with only a Biyun pendant.Simple and elegant.A delicate oval face, unpainted, but also unforgettable.

Shuiyue walked behind An Muzhen, and when she reached the lobby, the second room lady had already left. Shuiyue looked at An Muzhen quietly, but found that An Muzhen's face was expressionless.

"Miss."

An Mujin turned around and looked at An Yiran who came out of the inner hall, a little surprised, but also expected.Now that it is snowing heavily outside, the people in Anhou Mansion will not wait for him.At that time, there was a not-so-shabby carriage parked outside the door, probably for myself!It's just that An Yiran will still be in the Hou Mansion no matter what.

"Yiran, didn't you go with Lord Hou and the others?"

"It's snowing heavily outside, I'm worried that Eldest Sister will be unbearable, so I will stay and wait for Eldest Sister."

"Yiran has a heart. Let's go, if you don't go, I'm afraid it will be too late."

The carriage was already walking slowly on the avenue to the imperial palace. Perhaps the queen was hosting a banquet in the palace today, so the snow on the avenue to the imperial palace was swept away, but now the sky is still full of chattering snow.It also looks like it has just entered winter.

An Mujin stretched out her hand to catch the slowly falling snow, and the snow melted in her palm.

"Your girl's body is weaker, it's better not to suffer from the wind and snow."

An Yiran was a little worried that An Mujin's body would not be able to bear it.After all, during the days when I was not at home, my mother and the others would not treat the eldest sister very well.It will be even worse if a girl's house is suffering from the wind and cold in this winter.

"Yiran, I have learned a lot outside these days! I like the gift for eldest sister very much, you are interested."

Seeing An Mujin's intention to avoid this topic, An Yiran couldn't say anything more, so she had to follow An Mujin's words.

"Well, Yiran has indeed learned a lot from being away these days, and it is also thanks to the careful cultivation of the master."

Shuiyue handed a hand stove to An Mujin, and the hibiscus birthmark on the corner of her eye added a bit of coquettishness to An Mujin.

"Let me tell you, the fourth son must have grown a lot taller when he came back this time, almost a head taller than our girl. If we go out together, I'm afraid there will be some jokes." Shuiyue covered her mouth and laughed. .An Yi stopped talking, her face was flushed red, she looked extra pleasing in this winter world where everything is white.

An Mujin cleared her cough, and Shuiyue immediately put away her smile, and looked at her girl nervously, for fear of being blamed by her girl.

An Mujin didn't blame her, but An Yiran was a little embarrassed.

Shuiyue quickly found some topics to ease the embarrassment just now, chatting and amusing all the way before arriving at the palace.

Not long after, the imperial palace appeared in front of An Mujin and the others. After all, it was the imperial palace. This kind of aura from the inside out, after countless years of cleansing, could not be imitated by dignitaries.

An Mujin looked at the palace with a sigh, as if the palace was as deep as the sea.She didn't like it here after all.

"Eldest sister, let's go in, if it's late, the empress might be unhappy."

An Yiran stood beside An Muzhen, An Yiran, who was already a head taller than An Muzhen, looked a little uneasy at the moment.He is also the son of Anhou's mansion, and he is well controlled. It is his blessing that Anhou Lord has such a son.

Shuiyue put a snow-white fox fur cloak on An Mujin's shoulders, which made the hibiscus under An Mujin's eyes more dazzling, making her look even more noble and glamorous.

The banquet was held in the Queen's Palace, passing the carp pond in the imperial garden on the way.

Although it has been snowing for a long time, the royal family is the royal family after all, and the carp pond did not freeze. On the contrary, a group of golden koi happily passed a jade lotus, causing ripples.

"Sister Hibiscus, why are you here now? When An Zeya and An Mo came here earlier, they made me look for you for a long time." Jun Muyue ran out from behind the rockery with the goose-yellow fairy group, still remembering Pouting her mouth like An Mujin acting coquettishly.

An Mujin looked at Jun Muyue, who looked like she was running here, and laughed a little. This girl probably waited a while before coming out to find her, but it was still snowing today, so no one followed this little girl.

"Why did Princess Mu Yue come out alone? Has the banquet already started?"

"Sister Hibiscus also said that I saw Ms. An Er just now, and I asked her specifically. She said she didn't know, and she might have arrived. I waited for a while, and then sneaked out in time."

Jun Muyue seemed to be saying another very important thing, she was so happy that she almost fell, but An Yiran gave her a hand, which prevented her from falling.

Shuiyue followed behind An Mujin without saying anything, just covered her mouth and snickered.

"Princess Mu Yue, please be careful, the snow on this road is very slippery." An Yiran bowed to Jun Muyue in a gentlemanly manner.

Jun Muyue blushed and said, "Thank you, Fourth Young Master."

An Mujin looked at the two of them and laughed a little: "Okay, okay, we should go to the banquet or it will be too late."

"Miss Anhou Mansion, the fourth son is here."

Seeing An Mujin and An Yiran approaching, the director eunuch began to shout.Jun Muyue was afraid that the empress would blame her and had already gone ahead.

Entering the main hall, the heating came on, and Shuiyue helped An Mujin put away the cloak.At this moment, many high-ranking officials and dignitaries have gathered in the hall.

Among them is Ye Shenyang who has grievances with Jun Muyue. This is the second time Jun Muyue has seen Ye Shenyang. With the bad influence of the first meeting, now that Jun Muyue sees him, she secretly sighs in her heart unlucky.

An Yiran looked at Ye Chenyang's side, there was another empty seat beside her, and there was another one not far away, but that seat was farther back.

After the queen saluted, An Muzhen walked to the seat a little further away and sat down. An Yiran originally wanted An Muzhen to sit in the front seat, but was stopped by An Zeya's look, and sat obediently next to An Mo.

"Sister, why did you come here now? Could it be that something happened on the way?" An Zeya asked in a low voice, and handed over a piece of hibiscus cake by the way.It's a show of sisterhood.

Shuiyue's eyes were sharp, and she took the piece of hibiscus cake from An Zeya's hand: "Second Miss, my girl is not feeling well these days, and it is not suitable to eat too sweet cakes, thank you Second Miss."

The pastry handed over was stopped, An Zeya said with a smile on the surface: "It's okay, it's my sister, I forgot, the eldest sister's body is just right, how can I eat such a sweet and greasy pastry."

In fact, the other hand has already twisted the hand into a ball.

"Second Sister, don't worry, everything is fine on our way, but today's wind and snow are a little lighter, so I wanted to take a look, so I was delayed for a while."

The banquet has officially started at this moment, first there is the royal dance, which is nothing to watch, so An Mujin didn't pay much attention to it.Jun Wushuang sat under the seat next to the queen, watching the dance with a proud face, as if the dancer was her.

After the dance, there are literati poems and songs.It's still a bit interesting, most of them are poems between young masters or sword dances.There are also few women.

After drinking for three rounds, Master An stood up: "The Queen, the second daughter of the old minister has been proficient in poetry since she was a child, why don't you let her take advantage of this winter to sing a song to cheer up the fun."

The queen was right, and An Zeran walked into the palace: "My daughter, An Zeya, has seen the empress, but my daughter is not talented. I just passed the imperial garden, and saw that the red plum blossoms in the courtyard are just right. Why don't you write a poem about plum blossoms?" , come to cheer everyone up."

The queen said with a smile: "I have heard that Second Miss An is proficient in everything. Let us experience it today. It is also to give our girls a face. Someone here will reward Miss An with the pair of jade ruyis."

All the women in the palace looked at An Zeya enviously. If they were rewarded or praised in front of the queen, it would be a great honor for the family, but if they were smashed, it would be a disgrace. Those dignitaries would not take such a risk.

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Marquis An hurriedly thanked him.

An Zeya also looked happy, but she lived up to expectations, and wrote a poem on the spot

"In the twelfth lunar month, the cold plums and the snow are proud,

Fengyi is known to all the people in the world.

In the past and present, we have had a banquet at the Phoenix Court,
Bow to judge the people in the court. "

As soon as the voice fell, there was applause in the hall. Although I felt a little disdainful of An Zeya's way of compliment, since ancient times, who doesn't like to listen to good words, and besides, the empress empress had already given a reward before.

Anhou Ye saw that he had achieved his goal, so proudly he picked up the wine glass next to him and drank it down in one gulp.

The queen's expression remained unchanged, making it hard to figure out what she was thinking.
