Chapter 178： Flounder (two more)

Chapter 178 Flounder (two more)

There is no queen in Jinshang. Chu Yi's biological mother is Jinshang's original wife, the princess, who died of illness ten years ago.

Since Jinshang ascended the throne, the ministers have also written to Jinshang several times, asking Jinshang to establish a new one, but Jinshang has all refuted them.

Therefore, everyone thought that this year's flounder banquet was canceled, but they never thought that the Queen Mother Yuan suddenly announced the girls into the palace in the afternoon. Then, the emperor also ordered people to go to various prefectures to pass the word of mouth, and called some young sons of the right age. Enter the palace to participate in the feast of flounder.

Gu Yanfei, Wei Jiaoniang, Lu Qin, and the others chose the seat closest to the music player. After the music player finished playing the song "Feng Qiuhuang", the storyteller next to him knocked on the gavel and started shaking his head. Get up and book.

Gu Yanfei divided his heart into two halves, one half was listening to the book, the other half was listening to Wei Jiaoniang: "This flounder feast has been held for more than 40 years, and it is held every year. I thought this year would be an exception."

"Actually, this flounder feast was originally held by Emperor Taizu to show the princesses his consort."

"Taizu said that his princess is not afraid of not getting married, and will not force her consort. Whoever wants to come will come. He said that this is called a blind date. Both men and women must first see each other before they know whether the marriage will be successful or not."

"It is said that when the eldest princess of Changning felt that the feast of flounder was not lively enough, she called a group of people of her age to come together. Taizu also thought that it was very lively for everyone to have a blind date like this, and this custom has been preserved year after year."

Lu Qin peeled off the pine kernels and sighed: "Emperor Taizu has always had all kinds of fantastic ideas, what a strange person!"

The storyteller next to    is talking about an anecdote of Taizu.

He spoke with a lot of eloquence from Emperor Taizu's childhood, saying that Taizu was naughty when he was young. be human.

Speaking of Taizu, he started as a small catcher. In just three years, he became the leader of the squad and established a bit of prestige in the town.

Speaking of the chaos in the world at that time, the auspicious omens of the black dragon appeared above the residence of Taizu, and Taizu rose up after that...

Originally, these stories are familiar to everyone, but today, many people have more or less heard that there is a "real dragon vision" in the capital. Now listening to this anecdote, some people can't help but show a meaningful expression.

There are also people like Lu Qin who have entered the palace early, and who have never heard of it before. Seeing Wei Jiaoniang winking, she brought her little face close to her and asked them in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

Wei Jiao Niang took Lu Qin's shoulders, pulled her closer, and whispered into her ear.

Lu Qin opened his eyes wider and wider, his pupils shone with an unusually bright light, and she nakedly wrote shock and curiosity on her face.

"Really a dragon?" Lu Qin asked in a low voice.

"..." Wei Jiao Niang's eyes twitched, and she was too lazy to answer such a silly question.

The storyteller next to    has already spoken eloquently about the black dragon lingering above Emperor Taizu's head, kowtow three times in a row, and roared three times before floating away;

Said that at that time, people in the whole town saw the black dragon appearing and knelt down to worship the black dragon. The scene was very spectacular;

Speaking of Emperor Taizu's lofty ambitions...

Lu Qin naturally understood Wei Jiao Niang's contempt and was too lazy to care about her, so she went to chat with other girls she knew well, and asked them if they had heard that a real dragon appeared in the capital today.

With her help, after a while, there was a commotion all around.

This fact is unbelievable. Some people believe it, some believe it or not, and some people look at each other in disbelief.

The inside of the boat gradually became noisy, and there were more and more discussions, until there was a brisk footstep outside the boat, with a silver bell-like sound of laughter and chatter.

"This year's flounder feast is held in this painting boat."

"Much more fun than being in a palace."

"That's right."

A dozen or so noble ladies from the imperial family came to the palace, surrounded by the princess of Changqing County, who was Prince Jing’s mansion.

Some girls came forward to greet Changqing and others and saluted, some girls sat in the same place and nodded with a smile, and some people just talked to others, pretending they didn't see it at all.

With the arrival of these noble ladies from the royal family, the scene became more and more lively. At first glance, the upper and lower floors were full of young and prosperous young girls.

Changqing glanced around, his eyes fell on Gu Yunxi, who was laughing not far away, and smiled sweetly: "Yunxiang."

Changqing walked over quickly and pulled Gu Yunchang away from Yu Chaoyun and the others.

"I was looking for you." Changqing took Gu Yunchang's arm and walked towards the front seat, smiling and biting her ear in a low voice, "Am I going to call you Auntie Huang?"

Changqing is the daughter of King Jing. She has been a frequent visitor in the palace since she was a child, so she is well informed. As soon as she entered the palace, she heard that the Queen Mother planned to set a wedding date for King Kang and Gu Yuncong after this year.

King Kang and King Jing were the same generation, and when Gu Yunchang became Princess Kang, Changqing became her junior.

Speaking of his wedding date with King Kang, Gu Yunchang's lips curled slightly.

A gleam of light just sprinkled on her beautiful face, outlining her soft and delicate outline, and a little golden light flashed in her pupils, making her charming and charming.

Gu Yunqiang's expression was somewhat tender, a bit sweet, but not ashamed, and said generously: "Changqing, I'm still me, you can call it whatever you used to call it."

Even if she is married to King Kang, she will not blindly depend on King Kang. She is Gu Yunchang first and his wife second.

Changqing liked Gu Yunxiang's uncompromising true temperament, he laughed, leaned into her ear and said, "I don't dare."

"Uncle Kang...I can't afford it."

Anyone can see King Kang's intentions for Gu Yunchang.

Gu Yunchang pursed his lips with a smile, the dimples on his lips were deeper, and the smile was sweet and sweet.

As soon as they sat down, they heard a screaming report from a servant who was guarding outside:

"The Emperor is here!"

"The Empress Dowager is here!"

"His Royal Highness is here!"

“…”

The emperor wearing a bright yellow dragon robe walked in side by side with the Queen Mother Yuan, followed by King Kang Chuyou, the eldest prince Chu Yi, and several other princes and princesses. Sitting in a wheelchair, pushed by the palace staff.

She is wearing a pink butterfly and a floral jacket, with a melon face, white skin, cherry mouth, and a cute double bun. She is thin and small.

Today, the children are weak, and they have only one son and one daughter. This is the only princess in the palace today, named Anle.

Everyone got up and saluted, and at the same time they bowed, they all quietly looked at the eldest prince Chu Yi.

Chu Yi has only returned to Beijing for a few months, and he has been reclusive. At least half of the people present had never seen him before, and their eyes were filled with curiosity and scrutiny.

Someone looked at the eldest prince and King Kang back and forth, weighing in their hearts.

Thinking about today's "real dragon vision", this flounder feast is obviously a bit unusual.
