Chapter 315 Luncheon
April sixteenth.

The weather is excellent, sunny day, cloudless.

Today is the day for the Spring Festival banquet held in the palace.

It's a luncheon, so you have to go to the palace early and wait.

Luo Ying and Dong'er waited on her to finish dressing, and Luo Ziyan was also ready.

He changed out of the serious bodyguard uniform he usually wore, and now he put on a moon-white robe.

The temperament is cool and cold, like a banished fairy.

It's really a bit like when they first met.

Meng Qianyan couldn't help taking a few glances.

"Why, is it too beautiful? You can't get enough of it."

"Look at you, how can I see enough, I can't see enough in my whole life."

Dong'er's face blushed upon hearing such affectionate words.

Luoying joked with a smile, "Young Madam, stop talking, look at Dong'er."

"Haha, Dong'er rarely sees these things, but she will marry in the future."

"If the servant does not marry, the servant will follow the young lady."

"Look, I can't say it yet. In the future, both of you, I have to find a good family and marry them."

"Hee hee, that servant has been waiting for that day." Luo Ying was generous, but not afraid.

"Okay, are you all ready? Ready, we should also enter the palace."

Followed by Luoying Dong'er and Qin Wu.

Luo Ziyan and Meng Qianyan stepped into the gate of the palace early.

Today's Spring Festival banquet was really jubilant. Before reaching the imperial garden, they could already hear the bustle and bustle.

When they approached, they saw many ladies and gentlemen from the official family, sitting in two parts, gathering in twos and threes, or whispering something, or laughing and joking.

Seeing this scene, she really became happy.

Boys and girls, each with their own spring, haha, what an interesting scene.

"Sister, what are you happy about?"

Wearing a red dress, Mo Lianyi rushed towards Meng Qianyan and immediately hugged her thigh.

"Hey, just look around, why are you here? You're still so young—"

"Oh, I came with my concubine mother. Hee hee, sister, don't look down on me, I know everything."

"Okay, you little brat, go, take me to see my concubine."

Following Mo Lianyi, she soon arrived in front of Concubine Yue.

Concubine Yue has already taken her seat, the upper seat on the east side, her makeup is exquisite, as noble as before.

"See mother and concubine." Luo Ziyan and Meng Qianyan saluted.

Hearing the sound, Concubine Yue looked at them, "Hehe, the young couple is here too, okay, it's just in time, let's sit down with Ben Gong."

"Yes, concubine mother."

Meng Qianyan sat down as he said, and looked around, and there were young girls and young masters everywhere.

There are also concubines in the harem, who have already taken their seats one by one.

It's just that the queen mother and concubine Yang are missing.

Meng Qianyan frowned, and said in a low voice, "Why hasn't Concubine Yang come yet?"

"Hehe." Concubine Yue's face turned cold, "Is it the first year to host the Spring Festival Banquet? Naturally, I have to put on airs so that people will take her seriously."

Meng Qianyan was slightly surprised, "Concubine Mu, did you host the previous Spring Festival banquets?"

"Otherwise, who is it? When the queen was here in the early years, her body was weak, and so was the prince she gave birth to, so the affairs of the harem have always been taken care of by the palace in cooperation with the queen mother. It's just that I didn't expect that I was too busy. Let that bitch of the Yang family win the favor of the emperor."

Speaking of these, Concubine Yue felt a little resentful.

Then noble concubine Houyue said to her: "You are the foster daughter of this palace, the younger sister of Seventeen, Concubine Yang will not treat you sincerely."

"This minister knows, and the minister will also guard against her."

"It's fine if you understand. It's fine if she organizes the Spring Festival banquet properly. I'm afraid she will make some crooked plans again."

"Thank you for reminding me, my concubine, I will pay special attention to it."

Concubine Yue's words are not false at all.

Meng Qianyan even had exactly the same thoughts as hers.

Not only Concubine Yang, but also Qingrong from the Fifteenth Prince's Palace, they are a group of people.

It's best for them not to trouble her, otherwise, she will definitely make them look good.

Think so.

Mo Yun's voice suddenly sounded beside him, he said coldly, "My ministers see mother and concubine."

Concubine Yue Gui heard Mo Yun's voice, and replied coldly: "Well, you are here, please sit down too, the luncheon will start soon."

Concubine Yue Guifei's voice fell, and immediately after that, she saw the prince also arriving, sitting on the other side of Mo Yun.

"Prince."

"Hehe, Seventeenth Brother."

Mo Ling's face was pale and thin, and his voice was low, a little sickly with lack of breath, but very gentle, speaking like the spring breeze in April.

Meng Qianyan felt a sense of intimacy, and was busy saluting, "See the prince."

"Sister Yihuan, don't be polite, sit, sit."

Meng Qianyan sat back.

Another eunuch's sharp voice resounded.

"The empress dowager arrived—"

"The Emperor is here—"

"Concubine Yang is here—"

With this loud call, everyone who was sitting stood up, bowed and bowed to the front.

"See the empress dowager, see the emperor."

The emperor laughed, "Get up, don't be cautious, today's Spring Festival banquet is for the children, so please relax, don't talk about state affairs today, just enjoy yourself."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Everyone sat down again.

Meng Qianyan also looked in the direction of the emperor.

Sure enough, the emperor didn't lie to her, so he just wore the purple gold dragon embroidered robe hand-painted by her, making him majestic and noble.

Concubine Yue's eyes seemed to be on Concubine Yang all the time.

Because Concubine Yang is too high-profile today.

She was wearing a pale gold long-sleeved tube top dress that stretched to the floor, and her whole body was shining brightly.

Those who knew said she was Concubine Yang, but those who didn't know might think she was the queen.

The Empress Dowager was sitting beside Concubine Yang in a red-gold flying phoenix uniform.

Did the empress dowager not care about Concubine Yang's overreach?

Sitting next to Concubine Yue Gui, Meng Qianyan could feel the anger in her eyes, she was afraid that her unhappiness would be noticed by the emperor or queen mother.

So, she turned into Concubine Yue's ear and said in a low voice: "Concubine Mother, I see you don't have to be angry, Concubine Yang is too bold, she will be killed by her own boldness sooner or later."

This is the palace, here is unfathomable.

A person who is too ostentatious does not know how many people are red-eyed.

Concubine Yue's face relaxed a lot when she thought of this.

She patted Meng Qianyan's hand, as if telling her to thank her for her kindness.

In this gap, the luncheon has already begun.

Everyone raised their glasses one after another and said some nice congratulatory speeches.

The polite greetings are over.

Concubine Yang sat beside the emperor and said, "Hehe, your majesty, look at today, there are really a lot of noble men and daughters here. The concubine also heard that they have prepared some talents. Dedicate it to the emperor."

"Oh? I'm all ready."

"Yes."

"Then come up, let's watch and watch together."

After the emperor finished speaking, Concubine Yang gave the crowd a wink, and saw a lady in a peach pink dress leaving the stage with a pipa in her arms.
