Readx;?Top Recommendation:γγγγγγγ
If the first emperor and the first prince are here, they will definitely reprimand the absurd! Although she is the emperor's grandmother, she is not a relative, and she is separated by a layer, so it is inconvenient to say anything, and she can only pretend not to know. Pen? Interesting?

However, looking at this posture, the emperor must be planning to make her the queen in the future. When the time comesβ
The Empress Dowager couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"The Empress Dowager," Lian Fangqing said with a smile: "It will be the Mid-Autumn Festival in a few days, and the concubines came over today to ask you, what to do with the Mid-Autumn Festival dinner!" You used to be in charge of the harem, and these little things will definitely not be difficult for you! The concubine's eyes are black, the Empress Dowager, you teach the concubine! β
Although the Empress Dowager is allowed to be raised, who wants to be an "old waste"? It's always a pleasure to have someone come to your door for advice, or at least prove your worth.
The Empress Dowager listened to Lian Fangqing's slightly coquettish tone, and it was clear that a junior had a coquettish look for an elder, and her heart couldn't help but soften, and a smile appeared on her face.
"Look at you so well-behaved, the mourning family will teach you a good lesson today! There are many large and small festivals and banquets in the harem! The Empress Dowager smiled.
Lian Fangqing smiled happily and thanked him, and said, "There is your old man here!" None of these things are a problem! β
"Mourning the old family, in the future, you have to bear all this!" The Empress Dowager only tried to say this, laughed and said no more, and taught Lian Fangqing carefully.
She has been a queen for more than ten years, and she is familiar with dealing with these things, so she doesn't need to think about it at all, and all kinds of words are gushing out.
Lian Fangqing listened carefully and carefully, bowed his head from time to time, and asked something with a smile from time to time.
The Empress Dowager was a little surprised by her acumen, she always thought that she was ignorant of the world, but she didn't want to be a scheming person.
The Empress Dowager naturally tried her best to solve her doubts, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart: This girl wants to be the queen, except for the virtuous and tolerant one, she is completely qualified to do it! It's just, alas, who called you Wei Ninghou's own aunt......
In the blink of an eye, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival.
This is the first major festival since the emperor ascended the throne, and the palace naturally has to be grandly organized.
Because there is no queen in the palace, the women inside and outside do not have to enter the palace to worship and say goodbye, which saves a lot of things.
Emperor Guangyuan originally wanted to order the women inside and outside the palace to ask for peace from the concubines, which was also the meaning of testing the outer court.
Lian Fangqing thinks that more things are better than less things, and now that Zhu Sangongzi's affairs are not over, why bother to make another incident?
Besides, she is really too lazy to deal with those people, and she is annoyed to death!
Emperor Guangyuan couldn't help but laugh, and let her go.
Lian Fangqing asked Concubine Han to help organize the Mid-Autumn Festival dinner together, but Concubine Han naturally did not refuse, and agreed with a reserved smile.
She buried her hatred deep in her heart, her face was still gentle and humble, and her docile temperament was praised by the upper and lower levels, and Emperor Guangyuan praised her twice in public and rewarded some rare things.
Even Fangqing can't find fault with her!
However, even Fangqing had a bottom in her heart, and she also noticed that Concubine Han was different.
In the past, although she was gentle, courteous, and submissive, it was for the emperor, the queen mother and other concubines, but not for her!
The subtle feelings between women are sometimes felt only by the person concerned.
Lian Fangqing has always felt Concubine Han's hostility, jealousy and unwillingness in the face of her, and she secretly seized the opportunity to smile and give her a gentle knife.
Lately, however, she had felt no such hostility.
She would never think that Concubine Han suddenly had an epiphany, and she wanted to be friends with her!
There's only one explanation: she's pretending, and she's pretending to be successful!
Why did she do this? Of course, there is another purpose! This purpose should be very related to what she is doing now, right?
As soon as the relationship between Concubine Niangniang and Concubine Han eased, the people below had no idea, and the palace was much calmer for a while.
This night's dinner was set up on the warm breeze drunk hall on the waterfront jade platform on the south bank of the Taiye Pool.
This place is the place where the palace specially built to admire the moon, so several large osmanthus trees are planted in front of the palace, there are golden osmanthus, silver osmanthus, red osmanthus, golden, silver-white, orange-red broken flowers bloom all over the crown, the elegant fragrance is straight like the palace in the wind, refreshing people's hearts.
One side is facing the open lake, the sound of the silk and bamboo orchestra played by the musicians is also more clear, the breeze is coming, there is a bright moon in the sky, and the moon shadow is reflected in the water, whether it is looking up at the moon or admiring the moon near the lake, it is all interesting. If you're in the mood, you can go boating.
If that's not enough, across the meadow planted with laurel trees is an artificially piled hill. There is a pavilion on the mountain, and it is also interesting to climb high and look at the moon.
Lian Fangqing and Concubine Han ordered someone to arrange the warm breeze drunk hall early, and at the beginning of night, they led the concubines to welcome the emperor, and under the leadership of the emperor, they went to welcome the queen mother.
After worshipping the Bodhisattva and the moon god with pure hands and incense, the group was surrounded by a large group of palace maids and eunuchs, and walked towards the warm breeze drunken hall.
For a while, the clothes were fragrant and the sideburns were shadowy, the skirts were squirming, and the hairpin rings were shining, so it was not lively.
Lian Fangqing couldn't help but glance at the Empress Dowager's side, but didn't see Concubine Shu and Mrs. Zhu.
A few days ago, the Empress Dowager revealed her intention to let Concubine Shu and Mrs. Zhu also come to the palace banquet, and Emperor Guangyuan acquiesced.
But maybe it was Concubine Shu and Mrs. Zhu who felt that this was not what it used to be, and their identities were embarrassing, so they politely refused.
When they came to the warm breeze drunken hall, Emperor Guangyuan and Lian Fangqing invited the Empress Dowager to sit down, and the two sat down, Emperor Guangyuan's eyes swept with a smile, and said, "Sit down!" Everyone sat down in their respective positions.
Lian Fangqing smiled and said something to him and the Empress Dowager quickly, and then nodded slightly to Aunt He, who had been paying attention to her movements at the door, and bowed her knees at her, nodded, and turned around to order food and wine.
A series of delicacies, wines, melons and fruits covered with silver lids were presented, and all the palace ladies were trained, and the seats of who was in charge of which master had been arranged in advance, so for a while, although the skirts in the hall were light, and countless palace maids were moving, they were all light in their feet, their bodies were smart, and their movements were light and fast, not only did they not look chaotic, but they looked a little pleasing to the eye.
Emperor Guangyuan sat above and said with a smile: "Today is also a family banquet, the concubines don't have to be too restrained, just talk and laugh!" The moonlight outside is also good, just in time for the occasion! β
Everyone was busy laughing and saying yes, Jiaoyin, and their eyes flew towards Emperor Guangyuan.
Even Fangqing smiled and said: "The Empress Dowager can talk about her old man, please listen to the play tomorrow night!" Today, everyone should serve her old man well, first, to do her filial piety, and second, her old man is embarrassed to lose tomorrow night's play anyway! β
