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

Chapter 60 The So-Called Concubine Selection Banquet

"How do you know?" An Mujin asked suspiciously.

Jun Lintian was slightly taken aback, and then explained: "I went to your place once, and I saw it on your desk by accident, presumably it was written by you."

"Well, it was indeed written by me." An Muzhen nodded, and as she spoke, she took a breath, watched the fleeting fireworks, and said quietly: "One generation, one couple, that is my wish."

Looking at the sometimes clear and sometimes blurred face in the fireworks, Jun Lintian slowly stretched out his hand to brush her cheek: "Mujin, that is my wish too, are you willing to come true with me?"

Facing the shining eyes of Shang Junlintian, An Muzhen's heart suddenly surged, she stretched out her hand to hold his hand covering her face, her red lips parted slightly: "I am willing, as long as I am still alive, as long as you are still with me By your side, I will definitely fulfill this wish with you.”

In the sparkling fireworks, on the high-rise building, Jun Lintian and An Mujin stood facing each other in the snow, and they spoke at the same time, making a promise in this life: "One generation, one couple." As they spoke, they looked at each other and smiled, and cuddled each other, Looking at the fireworks in the sky.

Then, the two of them were in the Tianxing Building, cooking wine with green plums, enjoying the piano and composing music, and ushered in the new year while chatting and laughing.

When the New Year's bell rang, the two cuddled together for a while, and then Jun Lintian reluctantly said: "Okay, it's getting late, and the sky will be dawn in a few hours. If I'm right, Tomorrow morning, the concubine will send the noble women to go, so you have to be prepared."

"Well, I see." An Mujin nodded obediently.

Jun Lintian stretched out his hand to stroke the hair on An Mujin's sideburns, and sighed slightly: "If it wasn't for this, I really didn't want you to go back so early."

An Mujin's face burned, she lowered her head, twisted her fingers, and said shyly, "Me too."

Seeing An Muzhen's shy appearance, Jun Lintian couldn't help being moved, and lowered his head to kiss her lips gently.

In the warm candlelight, the two stayed together for another moment.

The morning sun slanted in from the window, rippling in the air, slowly swallowing the moisture accumulated last night.

An Mujin opened her eyes in a daze, and saw that the room was brightly lit, and Shuiyue was already waiting for her. She suddenly remembered that she was going to the palace for a banquet today, and she became anxious all of a sudden, so While rubbing his sleepy eyes, he asked, "What time is it?"

Seeing that her daughter was already awake, Shuiyue hurriedly smiled and leaned forward to help her sit up, and said, "Don't worry, girl, there is still a long time before Maoshi, I will help the girl to wash up first."

Although An Mujin has been in this world for some time, she is somewhat unaccustomed to letting others help her wash and wash.It's just that she got up too early at the moment and was exhausted, so she went with the water moon.Anyway, she is someone sent by His Highness, and she will not do anything bad to herself.

Thinking of this, An Mujin was much relieved, and followed Shuiyue with half-opened eyes.

After a while, Shuiyue had helped her change her clothes and was combing her hair in front of the mirror.

An Mujin has also become sober, looked at herself in the mirror, and asked with some doubts, "Isn't today the day for the old concubine to hold a banquet in person? Why did you dress me up so neatly? Didn't His Highness give me a banquet before?" You have prepared clothes, why did you become this set today?"

As she said that, she lowered her head slightly shyly. Although she looked indifferent on the surface, she was a girl after all. On such a grand day, she didn't want to be robbed of the limelight by others. After all, her tone With such plain clothes, An Mujin liked the gorgeous set before.

Shuiyue already knew what she was thinking, she covered her mouth quietly and snickered, "Young lady didn't know something, the master said that he didn't think carefully before, so that made people make that suit. But then I remembered that although the old concubine lived in the deep Palace, but all these years I worship Buddha on weekdays, and what I like most is such a plain dress. His Highness personally chose this suit for the girl. Besides, the girl is born delicate and beautiful, if she wears red and green again, I'm afraid she will Dislike the old concubine. The most important thing is... This time it was said that it was a banquet, and everyone knew that it was to choose a concubine, but no one made it clear, and no one knew what our master wanted. What about the girl? Let other people do those things about competing for splendor, girl, just watch the fun with peace of mind."

While Shuiyue was talking, she didn't stop the movement of her hands. A pair of skillful hands ran back and forth between An Mujin's black hair, and she had combed her bun in a short while.Then, he lowered his head again, carefully picked out a jasper hairpin from the jewelry box, and asked her, "Miss, what do you think of this one?"

An Mujin has always been smart, after listening to Shuiyue's words, she already had a plan in mind, when she saw this hairpin, she also understood that this is the most appropriate attire, so she nodded happily.Remembering just now that Shuiyue said that the clothes on her body were chosen by His Highness, she felt happy for a while.

The two of them had just finished preparing, and An Zeya over there had already arrived, standing at the door and said coldly, "Why, what time is it? Big sister, are you still up?"

An Mujin knew that she had always been at odds with her, so she didn't care too much about her at this time. Today's banquet was organized by the old concubine, and the invitations were sent to various houses. She should be with An Ze Ya went together, but somehow An Zeya and Jun Wushuang got together, so An Mujin had no choice but to go with the two of them.

Then An Mujin stood up slowly, looking unhurried, seeing that Jun Wushuang was annoyed for a while, and said in a strange way: "Hmph, don't think that if His Highness just looks at you a few more times, you will be able to be superior to others, isn't it? You have to go in the same car with me? Don't dawdle here, spoil my good work!"

"Pfft." Before An Mujin could speak, Shuiyue behind her had already chuckled softly. After she finished laughing, she raised her head and saw Jun Wushuang looking at her angrily, so she calmed down He added without hesitation, "Princess Wushuang doesn't know something, what our Highness likes the most is the girl's demure and dignified temperament."

Logically speaking, the maid should not have interrupted the conversation between master and master, but Shuiyue was sent by Jun Lintian, and her status was different from that of ordinary maids.

"You!" Jun Wushuang's brows stood on end, and she was choked up for a moment, so she could only snort coldly, "I'm too lazy to argue with a servant like you!"

After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked towards the door angrily.

An Mujin looked amused, turned her head to look at Shuiyue, her eyes were full of approval.

If you really look into it carefully, the words demure and dignified are obviously not appropriate for An Mujin, and it is not because of this reason that Jun Lintian likes her.It's just that it's very suitable to be used to anger the arrogant An Zeya.

Seeing that An Zeya had already got into the carriage, although An Mujin was not very willing, she still got into the same carriage with An Zeya according to Jun Lintian's instructions.

Anhou Mansion is not too far from the Palace Museum, but only a few blocks away, and the carriage has been galloping all the way, and it took only a quarter of an hour to reach the gate of the palace.

When they arrived at the gate of the palace, people from the palace naturally came to meet him. Jun Wushuang got up first, and got out of the carriage with the help of the servant girl, then turned her head and gave An Mujin a glance, then walked straight forward. It seems that he disdains to go with An Mujin again.

Seeing Jun Wushuang walking in front, An Zeya also followed, with the same expression as Jun Wushuang.

An Mujin was not surprised at all, she got out of the carriage with Shuiyue, thanked the driver, then turned and went into the palace.

An Mujin looked at Jun Wushuang who was walking in front from the back, and saw that she was not walking like she used to, but rather shy, probably because she took what Shuiyue said just now and deliberately acted A demure and dignified look.But he didn't know it at all, and he became a laughing stock in the eyes of others.

An Mujin snickered secretly in her heart, but she still had a warm look on her face, she just followed the guide and walked forward slowly.

After entering the palace gate, the scenery is quite different from the outside.

It is now the middle of winter, and the streets and alleys are full of depression.And outside the palace, although it looks quite deserted, there are carved beams and painted buildings along the way, and the dark gray floor solemnly extends from the palace gate to the distant palace. Narcissus and Molan are placed on the left and right of the road, facing the cold wind. Proudly in full bloom, pink and white are intertwined along the way, and even the air is particularly refreshing.

Palace people and female family members come and go on the road, although it is not lively, there is no sense of depression.There are also many fiery red lanterns hung along the way, presumably at night, it will be a different kind of scenery.

An Mujin just walked and watched, and after a while, she had already arrived at the gate of the Royal Garden.Looking up, there are many guests in the garden at this time. Plum blossoms of different colors are planted in the garden, and some flowers with strange shapes are mixed among them. Even An Hibiscus is not named.

From a distance, it looks like a sea of ​​flowers that is extremely attractive, and the female family members in jade and brocade are shuttling among them, all of them are beautifully dressed and charming, and it really looks very pleasing to the eye.

"Girl, this way please." Shuiyue interrupted An Mujin's racing thoughts.

Only then did An Mujin come back to her senses, she smiled a little embarrassedly, and hurriedly led Shuiyue to her position.

Her seat was right next to An Zeya, and An Zeya had already sat down at this time, and was chatting with the surrounding official ladies, all of them covered their mouths and smiled, seemingly very happy.

An Mujin sat down on her own, and looked up, only to see Li Feifei, An Zeya, Jun Wushuang and ladies from various famous families were there, so she smiled and shook her head, presumably after a while they must I will not let myself go easily.

After a while, the old concubine saw that the ladies from all the mansions had arrived, so she smiled and said, "It's getting late, let's start eating. Today I just invite everyone to come over to welcome the New Year, but it's too formal. Just have fun."

After finishing speaking, the old concubine sat down, her eyes swept over the ladies of each family one by one, with a smile like a spring breeze on her face.
