Summer goes and autumn comes. In the twinkling of an eye, in the Mid Autumn Festival, the emperor holds a banquet in guihuawu and enjoys with his courtiers.

It's the same rule as in previous years. The huge site is separated by a screen. The white lotus glazed lamps are carried on the screen enclosure, and the bright giant candles on the big pillars all around make this place like day. On the left side of the screen are the emperor and his ministers, and on the right are the Empress Dowager and her family members. The palace maids and eunuchs are in constant flow, each with her own work.

As a rule, the emperor sat on the throne alone. Looking at the lively scene, he was still not happy or sad. In fact, his heart was still sad. He thought of her more than ever, especially in this happy day.

The courtiers seemed to be used to his indifference. They were drinking noisily and noisily, but it was very quiet on the other side of the screen. There were not many Gaoming ladies who were qualified to enter the palace. They probably could not sit at two tables. It must be that the Empress Dowager had not arrived yet.

He played with the little jade cup between his fingers. In the distance, the sound of running water on the hydrophilic platform was ringing, the moon was hanging overhead, the fragrance of Osmanthus was floating in the air, and he seemed to be drunk. But all this had nothing to do with him. Such a lively occasion had nothing to do with him.

Vaguely heard someone say: "the Empress Dowager Buddha is coming, come on, let's go to please."

The emperor returned to his senses and listened carefully. The movement on the right side was really loud. It was probably the courtiers and their wives who were saying hello to empress dowager Rui.

He was idle and bored, and passed away with his wine cup. Empress dowager Rui, wearing a purple Phoenix robe, a dignified bun and a white jade hairpin, was surrounded by a group of women's family members. She looked very kind.

Seeing the emperor coming, the women's family members with all sorts of words quieted down and saluted him one after another. The emperor waved his hand and asked them to get up. When they straightened up, the emperor found that the beauty who was closest to empress dowager Rui was familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was?

The beautiful woman in full dress was red faced by him, but she didn't dare to look up. Empress dowager Rui joked: "I read the emperor every day. I finally met her. Why didn't I talk? How can you do this in the world? "

As soon as empress dowager Rui mentioned it, the emperor suddenly realized that it was xiuyuanshuang. He hadn't seen her for several years, but he didn't recognize her because of her gorgeous makeup.

Xiuyuanshuang is like a rabbit in her heart. She can't breathe when she jumps. Even the disappointment that the Emperor didn't recognize her is ignored. She's just restless. She comes uninvited. What's the emperor's attitude?

In fact, it's not uninvited. It's the result of more than a month's negotiation between her and Empress Dowager Rui. More than a month ago, Empress Dowager Rui sent people to see her. Although the Emperor didn't take her into the palace, she didn't leave her. Empress Rui missed her daughter-in-law and sent people to see her. It's reasonable.

She is a lady of a big family. She can't go into the palace. Every time empress dowager Rui sends someone to visit her, she asks her about her food and daily life. When she hears that the Empress Dowager has a cough at night, she finds a prescription, makes her own Sydney cream, simmers it over a low fire, and puts it in the well to cool the Yin. It took her more than half a month to send her to the palace. Empress Rui eats the snow Li Gao's cough was much better. She praised her filial piety and wanted to take her to the palace. She was afraid that the emperor would be angry and did not dare to agree. After discussing with empress dowager Rui for a long time, she finally decided to show her face at the Mid Autumn Festival banquet to see what the emperor meant.

At this moment, she was beating a drum in her heart. She wanted to face. In front of so many people, if the emperor refuted her and drove her away, she would not live.

Empress Dowager Rui secretly looks at the emperor's face. To be honest, she has no bottom in her heart, but she really likes xiuyuanshuang. Originally, because she is Xiumin's daughter, she takes a high look. After getting along with her, she feels that she is filial and sensible. When we meet again, she looks beautiful and has a dignified and elegant temperament. In her opinion, xiuyuanshuang is not too satisfied to be in charge of Zhonggong. Today, I'd like to have a try. What's the emperor's attitude?

Xiuyuanshuang's awkward identity is no secret. Even the people in Lin'an City know that there is a side princess living in the palace of Chu, so all the women's families hold their breath and wait to see a good play.

But the emperor had no expression. With a face of neither joy nor sorrow, he offered empress dowager Rui a glass of wine.

After drinking the wine, Empress Dowager Rui quickly winked at xiuyuanshuang. Xiuyuanshuang was a wise man. She raised her glass and laughed at Yingying. She said to the emperor, "my concubine, I wish the emperor good health for thousands of generations."

The clever eunuch immediately handed over the wine to the emperor. The emperor took the wine cup and lowered his eyes. It seemed that he hesitated for a moment, or he looked up and poured the wine into his mouth.

Xiuyuanshuang took her sleeve to cover her mouth and took a sip. When Princess Rui saw them like this, her eyes narrowed with laughter. She said to the emperor, "yuanshuang seldom goes into the palace. The AI family wants to keep her for a few days. How about letting her live in Jingxiu palace for the time being?"

The emperor tugged at the corner of his mouth and reluctantly brought out a smile. He didn't give a positive answer. He glanced at xiuyuanshuang and turned away.

His that eye, seem insipid, repair yuan frost but feel back hair cool, busy low head.

As soon as the emperor left, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Xiuyuanshuang was wronged. After seeing empress dowager Rui, Empress Dowager Rui patted her hand and comforted her: "the Emperor didn't say anything, that's the default. Stop today, you can stay. Don't worry. Let's take our time. Now the emperor's heart is a cold stone. It's up to you to cover it up. You have to endure it."Xiuyuan frost gently nodded, "I can endure." She had been alone for three years. When she came to him, she was more able to endure. She had no other ability, but she could bear it.

In order to create opportunities for xiuyuanshuang, Empress Dowager Rui also racked her brains. At the same time, Huang Youdao came to ask for instructions and said that this year's flower boat is beautiful. Would you like to go on a cruise?

After hearing this, Empress Dowager Rui had an idea and asked him to invite the emperor to take a cruise with him.

In the palace, there is the custom of watching the moon by boat. Every year, the emperor takes the imperial concubines to swim in the lake Taiming. It is elegant and interesting to drink and enjoy the moon.

Since empress dowager Rui wanted to go on a cruise, the emperor naturally wanted to accompany her. Thinking that only their mother and son would be lonely, he asked the king of Jin to go with some brothers. He took Hao pingguan, Qihong and Yuegui to the lake.

Xiuyuanshuang of that Xiang, holding empress dowager Rui, was standing by the lake, waiting to board the boat. There was a sequence of boarding. The emperor went up first, then empress dowager Rui, and the rest of the people went up in order of rank.

This year's flower boat is a new one. It has a spacious hull, a towering mast, and a long variety of colored lights. There are lantern riddles on it. There are large places for people to stand at the bow and stern. There are armchairs on the side, cabins in the middle, and carved doors and windows. Bamboo curtains are hung on the door, light gauze is hung on the window, and tables, chairs and tables are placed inside. There are tea and snacks on the table. The little eunuch is waiting by the door The nobles waiting on board.

The emperor got on the boat and turned to pick up empress dowager Rui. It was xiuyuanshuang next. She stretched out her hand, but the emperor had turned around and carried empress dowager Rui to the cabin. Her hand was stiff in the air, neither did she accept it nor did she accept it.
