Chapter 247 Palace Dinner
The emperor does not enter the harem. If he does, there will be something to report.
Whenever the emperor came to the harem, the one who stayed the most was Concubine Shu in the summer.
Today is no exception.
However, today, the emperor brought a piece of news
The next day, important officials from all sides came to the capital of the Tang Dynasty to meet the emperor.
The emperor wanted Xia Tiantian to attend the dinner to entertain important officials.
When Xia Tian heard this, he was determined to postpone it.
Xia Tiantian: "Your Majesty, to attend the envoys' dinner, the Queen is enough"
Xia Tiantian: "The harem is not allowed to go out, let alone interfere in government affairs. Meeting with ministers is a matter of state!"
When the emperor heard this, he knew that this was just Xia Tiantian's excuse.
The emperor did not want to be exempted, and immediately rejected Xia Tiantian's words.
Li Tianqi: "According to what my beloved concubine said, the queen also attended the dinner. How can this not be considered as the harem interfering in government affairs?"
Xia Tiantian shook his head and denied it.
Xia Tiantian: "Of course they can't be compared. The queen is the mother of a country, how can she be the same as the concubines in the harem?"
The emperor felt that he could not persuade Xia Tiantian
So he asked his brother-in-law to persuade Xia Tiantian
Li Tianqi: "Well, look, my dear Hua, I can't persuade the Concubine Shu, why don't you come and persuade her for me?"
Hua Jue arched his hand
Report to the Emperor
Flower Tactics: "Uh, Your Majesty"
Hua Juezhi: "Even if Concubine Shu doesn't want to go, there are benefits to not going. Your Majesty, why force her?"
Persuasion to no avail
The emperor gradually lost his patience
The emperor also felt that he had a lot of pressure and fear of being conquered.
He waved his hand to give up.
Li Tianqi: "Forget it, I won't force it then."
Li Tianqi: "I have something else to do, so I will go back to the Imperial Study."
The eunuch knew
Immediately ordered to set off:
Eunuch Wang: "Your Majesty, please get up..."
Hua Juezhi: "Your Majesty, I respectfully bid you farewell"
Xia Tiantian: "Your Majesty, I respectfully send you off!"
The emperor stood up, walked a few steps, and turned back again to order
Li Tianqi: "My beloved concubine, there is no need to rush to reject my invitation."
Li Tianqi: "Tomorrow, you can think about your own thoughts. I am waiting for you at the banquet."
After saying this, the emperor walked away in a huff.
Hua Juezhi saw the emperor leave, stood up, and helped Concubine Shu up.
Hua Juezhi: "Madam Shufei, His Majesty the Emperor has passed away"
Flower Tactics: "Get up!"
Summer day slowly stood up
Looking at the emperor's unhappy back outside the door
This is the first time in Xia Tian's life that he has seen the emperor so unhappy.
After not being sent back for many days, it came, but it was so unpleasant. Xia Tian seemed to be reflecting on
Hua Juezhi also persuaded Xia Tian
Hua Juezhi: "My Lady, let's go to the dinner tomorrow!"
Xia Tian seemed to understand something
Also nodded slightly
Xia Tiantian: "Yeah, let me think about it for a while."
Xia Tiantian: "…"
The next day
night falls
The palace night banquet officially begins
The sound of stringed instruments rang out, and the music sounded melodious and beautiful
Important ministers from various places all took their seats.
Halfway through the banquet, the ministers were very happy and drank until they were drunk.
Under the influence of alcohol, some people began to raise their glasses and shout
Envoy: "Come, drink"
Envoy: "Respectfully to His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty"
Envoy: "What a pity, the Tang Dynasty is so prosperous, but there is no beauty to accompany us."
Envoy: "Your Majesty, if you don't have a harem, it's a waste of your great country. No one will share it with you."
The emperor held up his wine glass, but his heart was filled with bitterness.
Isn't there the Queen by my side?
How come it's so unsightly!
At the beginning, the emperor also asked the queen to do the preparation work.
These ministers and the empress had to be familiar with the paintings to prevent the emperor from speaking out of turn after drinking.
I made a mistake and offended someone I shouldn't have offended.
The emperor paused, unable to speak.
The queen immediately leaned over to the emperor and reminded him
Maid Guixiang: "Your Majesty, this is an important official from the south."
Maid Guixiang: "The wife of an important official and his sister, Lady Huarui, are both extremely beautiful and stunningly beautiful."
Maid Guixiang: "The Queen's preparations are not only for important officials, but also for the family affairs of ministers."
As expected of the Empress of the Tang Dynasty, she played a certain role in assisting the Emperor.
