Someone followed the sound and saw a soft and delicate little girl with a charm that no painter could paint. She was looking at the Crown Prince Hongyi with admiration, her white and tender little hands were slapping each other.
They applauded enthusiastically.
It turns out to be Princess Anle’s minister Qi, so that’s okay.
Qian and Hao, the two assistant ministers, were initially shocked by Qi Bao'er's sudden blow and were unable to react for a moment. However, as they were worthy of being Qi Bao'er's brothers, they immediately followed suit without thinking and instinctively.
In terms of time, it's just a matter of one second before and one second after.
Therefore, except for a few people who reacted very quickly and knew the truth, most people in the hall saw that the source of the applause was the three brats from the Ministry of War.
Looking at the three people side by side, the two on the left and right are burly and strong rough men. The delicate little girl in the middle looks soft and cute, and she smiles very well-behaved.
Okay, don't think about it, the two rough guys on the left and right must have forced Qi Shilang to applaud too.
Coincidentally, both the emperor and the prince knew that it was Qi Baoer who took the lead. The father and son looked at each other, smiled helplessly and connivingly, and raised their hands in tacit understanding... "Pa, pa, pa, pa~"
The emperor and the prince both applauded. No matter what they were thinking at the moment, they should follow suit first.
Then, the whole hall burst into thunderous applause.
The civil servants, women and ladies were either disdainful or implicitly embarrassed. They just raised their hands in a meaningful way, and the sound probably could not reach a meter.
On the contrary to them are the generals, it is as if their hands are not their own.
The originally extremely calm Crown Prince Hongyi felt a little at a loss as he sat there.
He was born prematurely and has been sick since childhood. He has never been treated like this...such...
I really can't describe that feeling.
In short, his heart felt swollen and hot, giving him a desperate urge to play a few more songs.
The prince knew about Crown Prince Hongyi's physical condition, and seeing that his face started to flush slightly with excitement, he quickly ordered Chen to take Hongyi away first.
When the emperor saw this, he also remembered Hongyi's physical condition and stopped.
Just like the order and prohibition, as soon as the emperor stopped, everyone below also stopped immediately.
It takes a lot to write, but in fact it only takes a few seconds.
Crown Prince Hongyi was supported by Chen Yi and left from the left side. The music immediately started playing again. On the right side, another group of dancers surrounded an official woman.
This matter of leading the applause was pioneered. Although there was a performance going on in the palace, many people's eyes still drifted to the Ministry of War from time to time.
How close the three of them are in private is their own business. When no one is paying attention, they don't have to worry about restrictions that their military background would consider unnecessary, such as the separation between men and women.
But now everyone's eyes drift over from time to time. Their Baoxianmei is a woman. The world has always been unfair to women. If they appear to be too close to Baoxianmei, the designated Baoxianmei will be reported.
Say something bad.
As a result, Qian and Hao, who were so curious that they both endured the itching, tacitly tolerated the itching, and sat down to pour themselves a drink while looking like they were watching the performance seriously.
....However, the fact is that they are both struggling with the same thing in their hearts at the moment.
——Openly applauding in the Palace of Preservation and Harmony. To put it seriously, it may cause loss of head; to put it lightly, if one does not do well, he will displease the emperor and destroy his own future.
They all already knew that the position of Bao Xianmei was forced upon her by the emperor. At the same time, they also knew that based on Bao Xianmei's character, even if she did not want to be the minister, she would not use this method.
He openly 'provoked' the emperor in the Baohe Hall to force the emperor to take back his position as minister.
Yes, Qian and Hao didn't know what other people thought. From the beginning, Qi Baoer's applause seemed to them to be provoking the emperor.
However, based on their interactions over the past few days, I can be 100% certain that Bao Xianmei is definitely not a random person.
After I calmed down, I realized there was a contradiction.
So they are curious, but they can't ask immediately now.
Also, both of them speculated whether Qi Baoer's behavior of clapping had any other meanings; after wondering, they were confused. After the dance in front of them, should they applaud again?
But the dancer in front was a girl, and she was very thin-skinned. Unlike the men in the army who could tease her at will, wouldn't it be bad if they applauded?
After a few minutes, they no longer needed to worry about this issue.
Because the civil servants' side first started playing enthusiastic drums.
Everyone followed the crowd, and the emperor's role of "taking the lead" at the end of the previous performance was still there. After the civil servants took the lead, the military commanders also followed suit and clapped not to be outdone.
This time there were many younger civil servants who drummed very hard, and when they clapped, they did not look at the people in the middle of the hall, but looked straight at the military generals, and some of them started to clap loudly and loudly.
The format of civil and military competition.
Qi Hao Qian, the Third Minister: "..."
Excuse me, why did the situation become like this in just one dance?
However, the three of them have not personally experienced the "struggle" between the civil and military forces of North Korea and China.
The Qilin Kingdom's DPRK and China are relatively harmonious, but the civil and military forces are still on opposite sides.
The civil servants thought that the generals were rude and had no brains. They could only hit and beat when trouble came, and they could not reason with them even if they wasted money and people.
Military generals think that civil servants are too soft-spoken. They know how to retreat and give in when encountering problems, but they still have some twists and turns in their minds and are not sincere at all.
To put it simply, both parties feel that they cannot pee in the same pot.
That means two people hate each other.
For people I hate, naturally I'll be fine with you if you're not nice; even more so if you're strong, I'll be upset.
It was also a coincidence that when the dance was over, a young civil servant saw a military general opposite him raising his hand. The gesture was so similar that he immediately wanted to applaud.
The young people are so energetic, but the dancer is the daughter of their civil servants, how can they let the generals applaud them before they can?
So, one of them took the lead, and immediately a group of people followed suit and clapped together.
Then, the civil and military forces seemed to be on a battlefield, with no one obeying the other, and it was very lively.
The official lady was either excited or embarrassed, and she quickly retreated with her face flushed.
Fortunately, they were all in the official court, and Zai Du had a clue in his mind. As soon as the woman retreated, the others stopped, and the palace banquet did not really turn into a battlefield.
However, the way the civil and military officials looked at each other clearly said, 'The winner hasn't been decided yet, come again.'
Later, under the dumbfounded look of Minister Qi Qian Hao San, everyone in the palace was probably completely unimpressed by the performance, and they all focused on competing for applause after the performance.
When the children of civil servants come up, the drums from the civil servants' side are fierce; when the children of military generals come up, the applause from the generals' side is not enough and they add cheers.
Not to mention, compared with the restrained palace banquets in previous years, this year's palace banquet was particularly lively. In the second half, many officials did not notice when the emperor and the prince left.
