Chapter 671: Enemies are really on a narrow road!
There is also Lan Hua. The question is whether Lan Hua will be investigated and asked where he is from. If he can't tell the truth, will he be supported by the government?
Forget it, although this thing is valuable, if Huayu doesn’t have good channels, it will be troublesome if he gets involved.
Shen Xia looked at these precious woods being carefully carved into exquisite columns, which were engraved with intricate and gorgeous patterns, demonstrating the majesty and demeanor of the royal family.
Thinking back to His Majesty's imperial study, although it was also exquisite and elegant, it was nothing compared to the banquet hall we were in at the moment.
The first time Shen Xia stepped into such a grand and majestic place, he felt as small as a drop in the ocean.
But seeing that all the tables at the banquet were small, Shen Xia really didn’t know where to sit.
At this time, a female official came forward to lead the way. Because Shen Xia had been to the imperial study several times, the palace maids in front of the emperor all knew Shen Xia.
"Princess, please follow me this way."
"it is good."
Shen Xia looked at the placement of the small table. At the top was the dragon seat, and there were seats next to the dragon seat.
Then there are two rows facing each other, but people don't sit facing forward, but face each other.
Shen Xia looked at the female official: "Ask a question?"
The female official asked respectfully, "May I ask, Princess?"
“How is the seating arranged?”
"The left side is for men, and the right side is for women."
"Ah."
Shen Xia followed the female official to the front and sat down at the third table in the first row.
Although the eldest princess did not come, I'm afraid she sat in this position because of the eldest princess.
Shen Xia saw that the first table in the first row was occupied by Madam Fu, and the second one was occupied by Madam Qin. What a narrow road that brings us together!
The first seat in the second row is the wife of the Duke, and the one below is Madam Xu, Xu Tianli's mother.
The third position is Princess Rui, who is behind Shen Xia.
Fang Huayi and Princess Gu Ziyanrui sat at the same table.
The table is also wide, with each female family member sharing one table. If there are more people, two tables will be arranged.
Shen Xia looked carefully and saw Tu Chenyu next to Gu Ziyan, who was behind Shen Xia on the left.
Because wheelchairs are relatively high, and the seats are for people to sit on their knees or cross-legged.
Shen Xia saw Tu Chenyu hesitating there.
Everyone looked at her with pity.
Shen Xia stood up and walked to her, bent down, picked her up, and gently placed her in her place.
The wheelchair is in the back.
Tu Chenyu was a girl in her teens and not very heavy, but the little maid next to her was thinner than her and might not be able to hold her up.
Although Shen Xia is not very strong, there is definitely no problem in just hugging her.
Everyone around was watching Shen Xia's actions and felt that this princess was really different. She was really good at scolding people, regardless of whether the other party could accept it or not.
But I also heard that she was very nice to everyone around her.
He also taught his unique medical skills to others in the academy.
It's really hard to judge her as a person.
But it seemed that she only spoke when others provoked her, and I had never heard that she bullied the weak.
There were also some ladies at the scene whose children were studying at the Expo Academy, and they had heard their own children talk about this princess, with mixed reviews.
But everyone came to a conclusion, that is, don't take the initiative to provoke Princess Anping, because she doesn't play by the rules and doesn't behave decently.
Tu Chenyu smiled and said, "Thank you, Sister Princess. Can I come to play with you often?"
Shen Xia nodded: "Sure! But I'm usually not here in the morning because I have to teach."
"Okay, I'll come play with you this afternoon."
"Yeah," Shen Xia settled her down and sat down in the front seat.
The officials on the opposite side also came in one after another.
Those who brought their sons sat opposite their fathers.
Look at the time is almost up.
Both sides are seated.
Shen Xia looked and saw Song Ming was in the fifth position in the first row opposite, just in front of Shen Xia's left.
Song Yun's level was not high enough to attend the banquet, so he was not there.
Shen Xia nodded to Song Ming quietly.
Song Ming replied, and the two of them didn't communicate anymore.
We can go back together later in the evening.
This was Shen Xia’s first time attending such a banquet. In fact, she really liked the seats in the second row occupied by Gu Ziyan and Tu Chenyu!
In an inconspicuous corner, we just eat and drink, and then go home.
Her position was really conspicuous, and she could see the adults opposite clearly.
Finally, the sky gradually darkened.
Then I heard the eunuch at the gate shouting: "The Emperor has arrived, the Empress has arrived, and the Imperial Concubine Rong has arrived........."
He listed several concubines' names, and then continued, "The Second Prince, the Third Prince, Princess Xiyue, and Princess Xirou are here..."
Everyone stood up and saluted, saying, "Your Majesty, the Queen, and the Concubine Rong..."
Shen Xia looked at the people behind Gu Yichen walking slowly into the hall.
The Queen lags behind by half a step.
The concubines brought their children along.
There were two concubines who had no children.
Gu Yichen can’t do it!
There are only four children in all these years.
This was also the first time that Shen Xia looked after Gu Yichen's four children.
I've seen Xiyue before.
Shen Xia looked at the two princes, one was the queen's second son, and the other was Concubine Rong's child.
If there is no other prince in the future, the throne will be inherited by these two children.
Now the two children are still young and the emperor is still in his prime, so all officials are safe.
If the prince comes of age, he will probably have to participate in the fight among princes, and there will probably be a bloody storm at that time.
Because Concubine Rong was related to the Qin family, Concubine Gong's power was almost as great as that of the Empress. Although the Empress was the legitimate daughter of the Grand Tutor's family, she was ultimately only a civil official.
Shen Xia looked at the two princes. The queen's son was ten years old, three years younger than Xiaotian, and Concubine Rong's was seven years old. If Xiaotian was really that, then now was a good time to go back, as they were still young.
The reason why she proposed to do manicures before was because in this way she could collect the Queen's manicures and do an experiment with Xiaotian first.
Be mentally prepared in advance.
Everyone was standing at this time, waiting for the emperor and others to sit on the noble seat.
Gu Yichen looked at everyone and waved his hand, saying, "Everyone, please sit down. Today is the Dragon Boat Festival dinner. Don't be too formal."
After everyone sat down.
Shen Xia looked at the table and saw food, snacks, fruits, and fine wine on the side.
The emperor said a few words wishing the Great Jin Dynasty prosperity, and then there was singing and dancing.
Shen Xia didn't know whether there was any problem with the wine on the table.
Think about it, she has made two enemies in the palace, so she should not eat these things carelessly.
Besides, this is someone else's territory. After all, she is an outsider and she definitely can't beat the locals.
It's good to be cautious.
Shen Xia watched the performance in front of her carefully, and occasionally the emperor would ask questions.
