Chapter 619 - The actor allures the country and the city 1
Tonight is a palace banquet hosted by the new emperor Daliang.
When the new emperor ascended the throne, Fang was eight years old, and the eldest princess was twelve years old. When the new emperor was young, the eldest princess followed the government with the body of a woman. It was not until the age of eighteen that the new emperor was able to take charge of the government alone, and the eldest princess retired from the government.
The purpose of holding a palace banquet tonight is to celebrate, why celebrate, related to the recent release of power by the eldest princess, the courtiers have been talking about it, and many ministers privately think that this is because the new emperor is dissatisfied with the princess’s long-term power, and wants to stand up tonight.
It even brought up the topic of the discord between the emperor and the eldest princess, saying that the eldest princess has been under the curtain for a long time, nostalgic for power, and reluctant to let go of power. It is only now that the new emperor is in charge of the government, and the new emperor has been dissatisfied for a long time, so the demonstration tonight , but also a warning to the party that was once close to the princess.
But not.
The fourteen-year-old emperor was served by eunuchs and dressed in dragon robes. The emperor’s face was still a little immature, his eyes were calm and deep, and he was full of the power of the emperor. He said, “How is the preparation on the emperor’s side?”
The master in charge hurriedly lowered his head and replied respectfully, “Report to Your Majesty, the eldest princess’ clothes and accessories were sent this morning, and the servants also asked the Shangyi Bureau to pay more attention. Those palace maids serve the princess all the year round. There was a glitch.”
The emperor half-closed his eyes and responded lightly, showing no joy or anger.
At the age of fourteen, there was an unfathomable feeling, and the palace servants became more and more careful.
The palace servants don’t know, but Eunuch Li understands. The emperor and the eldest princess have a very harmonious relationship. If another person listens to the emperor’s question, he may feel that the emperor has a control order for the eldest princess, but Eunuch Li understands. no.
The emperor asked whether the affairs around the eldest princess were properly prepared, from the clothes prepared by the clothing bureau to the maids who served.
After getting dressed, the emperor said softly, “Let’s go.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
Sitting on the imperial carriage, the emperor looked in one direction, and in his eyes was an emotion that was rarely seen by others. He thought, “Sister Huang, you don’t have to work so hard anymore.”
But this is also the last time the Queen has stayed in the palace.
After that, he was the only one in the palace.
Originally, when he was in his prime, he should have moved to the Princess Mansion, away from the cumbersome government affairs.
While the emperor was contemplating, the imperial chariot had stopped. The emperor appeared at the banquet, and the noise stopped. No matter what he thought, the courtiers did a good job on their faces.
The emperor first looked at a position next to it, which was slightly lower than the emperor’s position, and then went straight to the top.
Except for the eldest princess, all the people who should be present have already taken their seats, and many ministers frequently cast their eyes on the only vacant seat.
The atmosphere suddenly froze, and the courtiers had a lot of speculation, but now looking at the unpredictable expression of the new emperor, the atmosphere was even more depressed.
At this moment, a **** shouted, “The eldest princess is here!”
The girl was dressed in golden silk and red, and her face was delicate and indifferent. This red suit made her fairer and paler, and she didn’t look gorgeous. The luxurious aura circulated in her body, which made people dare not blaspheme.
The eldest princess is the eldest daughter of the late emperor. She was given the title of Changning at birth, meaning the rest of the world grows in peace. This is a father’s wish to his daughter.
It was only when Princess Changning was twelve years old that the feudal lords jointly launched a palace change. Although most of the feudal lords were excluded, the late emperor died and the prince was young, so the princess had to pick up the burden.
After Princess Changning took her seat, she nodded slightly to the emperor, and the palace banquet officially began.
First, we exchanged a few words of greetings, then watched the singing and dancing performances, all of which were musicians and pianists from the classroom.
Among them, the emperor did not reveal the slightest unhappiness that the eldest princess was late for the new emperor’s banquet.
Some active ministers began to think about the relationship between the emperor and the eldest princess. Either the relationship was harmonious, and the emperor didn’t care, or the new emperor was deeply thoughtful and hidden.
After the singing and dancing, the palace staff quickly set up the stage and sang the song “The Palace of Longevity”.
One of them was an actress, who, although she was wearing make-up, could vaguely see the exquisiteness of her appearance.
Princess Changning frowned slightly, and raised her eyes slightly to look at the past. She remembered that there was no such song in the past, and it was rarely arranged. Only when the father was still there, it was more frequent.
As soon as he raised his eyes, he was caught off guard with the most prominent actor, whose eyes were beautiful and deep, like a cold pool of shimmering rays of light.
The actor seemed to have looked at the princess before.
In the end, it was covered by makeup, and it was a little far away, so the actress’s face could not be seen clearly, Princess Changning was startled for a moment, and then she quickly turned her eyes away.
The emperor paid a lot of attention to the matter of the princess, and when he saw it, he wrote down the actor. As an emperor, he had suffered changes since he was a child, so he naturally knew what to say.
The imperial sister was a little far away from him, so she obviously couldn’t talk at the moment.
At this banquet, he specially asked the courtiers to bring their juniors, in order to show the emperor’s sister the concubine.
Of course, I just took a preliminary look at the conduct of those men, and then brought it to the imperial sister for her to screen. As long as the imperial sister likes it, he will decree the marriage.
If the father and the emperor were still there, he would definitely have chosen his favorite candidate and arranged the marriage for the emperor early.
In general, a woman will get married at around sixteen, and eighteen is already very late.
The emperor’s thoughts, the courtiers did not know, they thought they wanted to see the queen concubine, I thought it was an opportunity, so many daughters attended the palace banquet.
After the song “Palace of Eternal Life”, the other actors silently retreated. Only the actor who could be recognized at a glance was still standing in the center of the stage, with a pair of eyes looking at Princess Changning, “I wonder if the princess is still satisfied with this song?”
Princess Changning’s eyes were slightly surprised, she never thought that an actor would ask her how she felt in public in the audience.
She replied quietly, “It’s still okay.”
In this inappropriate environment, the princess still gave a reply without embarrassing the other party.
After all, the status of the actor is not high, and it is beyond the limit to ask Princess Daliang in public.
Most people know that this is just a superficial rhetoric, but the actor seems to be very happy, “It is an honor to be liked by the princess, and I would like to enter the princess’ mansion and sing any song for the princess at any time.”
The courtiers were in an uproar and could not help but whisper.
At best, it is singing, but if you really let the actors enter the palace, how can it be so simple on the surface.
In a sense, this is a self-introduction to the mansion, wanting to become the princess’ male pet.
But the eldest princess is so honorable, and she has been under the curtain for six years. Even if she has retired from the government now, she still has a lot of power in her hands. It is a fool’s dream for a small drama actress to want to enter the government.
Is to choose, but also to choose a consort.
Princess Changning was a little confused by this incident, but she refused calmly.
The actor was obviously very disappointed, and retreated in gloom.
The reason why he didn’t make any statement accusing the other party of being wrong is because of his incompatibility, and because today’s palace banquet is special, try to avoid disputes.
Thirdly, she really didn’t have too many emotions.
