Chapter 2339 Spirit Soap
"Miss Chu, it seems that only one mouth is hard. Let me see how long you can be hard."
"Don't worry, I will definitely not let Young Master Qi see that I am unlucky first."
The two of them were not speculative, and after finishing their sarcasm in a few words, the palace people sang and shouted: "The emperor and the empress dowager have arrived."
Everyone present stood up, knelt down and saluted.
"The ministers and others see the emperor, long live, long live, long live, and the empress dowager is a thousand years old..."
Emperor Xuanming raised his hand: "Everyone who loves you, today is New Year's Eve. It's a great day to celebrate the New Year. Please sit down."
Everyone stood up, returned to their seats and sat down.
Emperor Xuanming took the queen mother and sat at the top together.
Earlier, Empress Dou came one step ahead, sitting on the other side of Emperor Xuanming's lower head, and all the concubines in the harem who were beauties and above also attended this palace banquet.
So many people.
Even so, the princes still sat next to the queen mother and queen.
The position of the concubine is extended to the back.
Chu Ziluo was not far away, but he couldn't see the faces of Emperor Xuanming clearly.
Let alone the little official who was a little farther away, I guess he couldn't even hear his voice clearly.
So that the front hall was very quiet, but the positions of the officials sitting outside the back hall were a bit noisy. After all, it was necessary to always ask what the emperor said.
Simply stay far away, even if you speak in a low voice, the emperor will not hear it. As long as you don't look around, there is no problem.
Hertu and others are also located very close to each other. It can be said that the location is very mysterious.
King Rong's subordinates are Hetu and others.
The first king of Qi is Deng Jieyu, who killed his mother and concubine. In terms of position, King Rong is next to the queen, closer to Emperor Xuanming.
The king of Qi took the lead, and he was also the king of Nanjiang.
All the important officials in the court saw this in their eyes.
When Qi Shangshu saw the arrangement of the positions, his eyes darkened, thinking that some things might be out of his expectation.
The dinner party begins.
There are dancers in the palace performing in the middle, but obviously, no one is thinking about dancing at the moment.
Hetu was indeed the most impatient.
"Your Majesty, it is a great honor for Hetu to be invited to the dinner today, and he also brought a gift from my Majesty King Beirong, congratulations."
Emperor Xuanming didn't change his expression: "Oh? I wonder what kind of ceremony the King of Beirong has prepared? I'm very curious."
"Papa." Hetu slapped his hands twice, "Come here, bring the gift."
I saw that when Hetu came to the capital this time, the guards he brought came in carrying a wooden box.
Hetu had already stood on the main hall and opened the wooden box himself.
I saw that there was an object wrapped in red cloth inside, and there was a burst of fragrance, but I couldn't see what it was.
"What is this?" Emperor Xuanming looked over the wooden box and asked directly.
Naturally, Hetu didn't come here to whet his appetite. In front of Emperor Xuanming, he swiped and lifted the red cloth on it.
The objects under the red cloth revealed their true colors.
There are rows of vividly carved objects with bright colors and smooth appearance.
Emperor Xuanming took a closer look.
The Empress Dowager next to her smelled the fragrance, and said inadvertently, "It looks like some kind of ointment? It's very fragrant."
"The Empress Dowager, this is the soap making method that Da Chu generously passed down to Beirong. The perfumer in my royal court researched it. It is smoother and easier to use."
