Chapter 22 The Emperor's Birthday Banquet

Chapter 22 The Emperor's Birthday Banquet
Gu Li only felt a rush of blood rushing to her forehead, causing her to suffocate her snow-white neck. She took a few deep breaths, forced herself to calm down, looked at Yan Feng with a very calm look, and said coldly: "You have you had enough?"

With calm eyes and cool voice, like a basin of cold water pouring on his head, Yan Feng's anger was completely poured out.

After returning to his senses, he realized what a good thing he had done impulsively just now.

Yan Feng looked at Gu Li in embarrassment, and smelled a unique fragrance from the tip of his nose, only to realize that the warm nephrite in his arms, the soft touch unique to a woman's body, made his body stiffen all of a sudden.

"Aren't you going to let go?" Gu Li's face was dark. Could she say that seeing Yan Feng's beautiful and vulgar face, she felt something was wrong?
She was actually suppressed by a fake maid! ! !

"Sorry..." He let go of the hands that imprisoned Gu Li, Yan Feng quickly got up under Gu Li's cold gaze, and stepped aside.

Gu Li only felt relieved. She stood up, arranged the clothes on her body, and then glared at Yan Feng angrily, but found that Yan Feng's stomach protruded a lot, and her chest was flattened. Unhappily said: "Your steamed buns have fallen on your stomach, do you want to keep them for dinner?"

Yan Feng, who hung his head and said nothing, was taken aback for a while, and it took him a long time to realize what she meant, so he could only get the two steamed buns back to the "right way" with a depressed face.

The two had nothing to say all the way because of this incident, and it was better when they arrived at the palace.

After getting out of the carriage, Yan Feng lowered his head, holding a bronzing invitation card and the birthday gift prepared by Yan Jinyun in his hand, he followed Gu Li without saying a word, showing the image of a maid with a low eyebrow and a pleasing look.

Apart from the fact that his height makes him look a little weird, there is nothing wrong with it, because the women in the country of Yan are generally taller, so as long as Yan Feng talks as little as possible, will it make people suspicious if he disguises himself as a woman for a while? .

The birthday banquet was held in the main hall of Yongshou Palace. Gu Li and Yan Feng were brought to Yongshou Palace by a court lady.

The palace is very large and can accommodate hundreds of people. Not to mention the decoration, it is mainly in gold and red, solemn and festive, yet gorgeous.

At this moment, the birthday banquet has not yet started, but almost everyone has arrived. Thinking about it, who would not be late for the emperor's birthday banquet?
Gu Li was ushered in by an eunuch, while Yan Feng handed in the invitation and birthday gift.

The location of the banquet is particular, the higher the status, the higher the row.

There are two side halls on both sides of the main hall. The right side hall is full of officials' wives and daughters who have not left the cabinet, and the left side hall is full of aristocratic sons and daughters.

Only important court officials and relatives of the emperor can sit in the main hall. The lower the status, the closer to the palace gate. After all, not everyone is qualified to be close to the emperor.

Although Gu Li's position is in the main hall, it is very special.It is neither near the emperor nor the door, but near the side hall on the right. Fortunately, it is not a place that attracts attention, and she is happy to keep a low profile.

Yan Jinyun's position is in the first row closest to the emperor. She originally wanted Gu Li to be with her, but before going out, she didn't know what Gu Li said, so she just turned a blind eye to Gu Li. Eyes, let this daughter keep a low profile at the banquet.

Gu Li knelt down on the soft cushion on the ground with an absolutely elegant posture. The long low table in front of him was covered with high-quality wine and dishes. The products from the Imperial Dining Room of the imperial palace are naturally not too bad. You can tell by the color it is good.

Each seat was arranged for two people, but no one sat down next to Gu Li.

At this moment, Yan Feng had returned after handing over his birthday gift. He lowered his head cautiously and knelt behind Gu Li's right.

Gu Li thought about when he would find an opportunity to sneak out with Yan Feng for a while, Yongshou Palace seemed to be quite close to Feixue Palace, where Concubine Xue lived.

A white shadow suddenly appeared in the eyes, and Gu Li came back to her senses, a girl had already sat down beside her.

Looking up, Gu Li was astonished to find that this person actually knew him, and it was Liu Yixue who competed with her last time in Qingyin Pavilion.

Liu Yixue wore a formal white palace attire, with a curvaceous figure, and a light powder on her delicate and fair face, adding a touch of beauty to it. Seeing Gu Li looking at her, she unexpectedly smiled softly.

Gu Li nodded slightly to her as a greeting, then turned her face away and turned her attention to the front.

After all, we only met each other once, and Gu Li is not a proactive person, so how can he be familiar with him, not to mention Liu Yixue is also on good terms with Leng Xiaoran.

Gu Li glanced around silently, and found that Leng Xiaoran was sitting in the fifth row of the first row, which surprised her a bit, but after thinking about it, the other party has a grand master's father and a first-grade wife's wife. Auntie is relieved.

"The emperor is here!" Accompanied by a sharp and loud voice, everyone stood up from their seats and knelt down to salute.

"Long live the emperor, long live!"

Emperor Yan Jing, who was headed by a bright yellow dragon robe, led a group of people into the palace.

After sitting down in the first place, he gently raised his hand, and said in a majestic voice: "Everyone is flat!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" There was another burst of shouts in unison.

Only then did everyone get up and sit back in their seats.

After talking about the scene, Emperor Yan Jing announced the beginning of the banquet.

With the sound of silk and bamboo orchestral music, a dozen graceful dancers stepped into the hall, waving their water sleeves and began to dance lightly...

Gu Li started to eat the food on the table one after another, she was not interested in singing and dancing.

The emperor was talking with the Crown Prince of Qin, and the voice was not low, but Gu Li's position was considered remote, and ordinary people might hear it vaguely, but fortunately, she had good martial arts internal strength, so she could hear clearly.

"It's rare for Crown Prince Qin to come to Yandu, but you have to have fun for a while before leaving." Emperor Yan Jing raised his glass to Prince Qin with a smile. The reason for calling Prince Qin was naturally because the other party was the prince of Qin, not Yan. country.

The Crown Prince of Qin State smiled, raised his hand to raise his glass as a signal, and said with a laugh: "That's natural, Yandu has beautiful scenery and outstanding people, and my Highness is a little bit reluctant to leave."

Emperor Yan Jing squinted his eyes, and smiled happily: "It's so good!"

As for whether it is true or false, it is estimated that only he himself knows.

……

Gu Li shook her head and didn't listen any more.

At this time, the song and dance performance was over, and Emperor Yan Jing, on a whim, asked everyone to compose a poem on the theme of birthday celebrations. Naturally, there will be rewards for good compositions.

Many ladies and nobles are eager to try.

Naturally, Gu Li had no interest in these things. When Liu Yixue, who was next to her, was also participating in composing poems, Gu Li caught a glimpse of a maid in front of her walking towards her with a drink.

With a thought, Gu Li reached out and took two peanuts from the plate, stuffed one into his mouth, and the other...
