Chapter 522: Related to the remnants of the previous dynasty
"At the annual banquet in the first year of my ascension to the throne, someone actually wanted to do something bad intentionally. It seems that I was too kind." Situ Ji's majestic voice resounded through the entire hall.
All the musicians and singers were terrified!
They were scared to death before they came on stage, because there was an accident in the previous scene, and all those people were gagged and taken away.
It really scared them to death.
I was very careful before coming up, for fear that they would make mistakes too.
In the end, I didn’t expect that such a big accident would happen, and I would be beheaded!
Everyone was trembling like chickens, ducks and geese waiting to be slaughtered.
"Your Majesty, someone must have done this deliberately, trying to use this group of palace musicians to create panic and create ominous circumstances!" Marquis Yin was the first to stand up and said.
"Yes, this is clearly someone who has been planning for a long time and wants to disturb people's hearts at this time. I'm afraid it has something to do with the remnants of the previous dynasty!"
"This year, the weather in our country has been good, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. Who would not say that this is a blessing to the country and the country, and it is also the result of the emperor's generous blessings on the Yong Dynasty!"
"There are frequent accidents at the palace banquet today. This is definitely not an accident. Someone must have done something to frame the emperor's reputation!"
"The person behind it is really cruel!"
"..."
The courtiers all stood up and said.
But it wasn't flattery, it was that they also noticed something was wrong.
This is a New Year's banquet, and these Kabuki actors are not idiots, because not to mention the Royal New Year's banquet, even if there is a banquet held at their house, Kabuki can only be performed at all costs, let alone an occasion like today.
An accident happened a second time. This is definitely not an accident that can be ignored, because it is impossible!
But he just showed up at the palace banquet!
A group of royal family members also sat down, except of course King Rong.
He really wanted the New Year's Eve banquet to be a disaster, but he didn't show it on his face at all.
But King Qi spoke, "Your Majesty, this matter needs to be thoroughly investigated. This is clearly aimed at our Yong Dynasty!"
Of course, Situ Ji would not condone such a thing, and directly ordered the Royal Forest Army to investigate the matter thoroughly.
It was originally a good palace banquet, but other than that, it was really disappointing.
At this time, the concubine Zhen opened her mouth and said with a smile: "Why don't you let me perform a song to entertain the emperor and the empress?"
"Yes!" Situ Ji responded.
Concubine Zhen ordered someone to bring her piano, and then played a very beautiful melody in front of everyone, which was amazing!
Although there were some disturbances at the previous banquet that should not have occurred, the scene recovered after the concubine You Zhen performed her performance.
Concubine Zhen's mother-in-law's family was also at the banquet today, and they were certainly very satisfied when they saw their daughter's performance.
And Concubine Zhen's behavior also made Concubine Yu extremely jealous.
How else to say that a concubine is an adulterer?
She actually took the initiative to perform, why was she a step too late, otherwise she wouldn't have lost the limelight to the concubine!
But right now, I can't speak any more, otherwise it will be like following the dog's tail, which will be counterproductive.
So I can only be secretly jealous.
Li Fei breathed a sigh of relief, but her face was still a little ugly, because she didn't expect that there would be such a big mistake at the New Year's banquet!
Who wants to harm her and Concubine Ning?
Concubine Li's eyes immediately turned to Concubine Wan. Concubine Wan felt that someone was looking at her and looked towards Concubine Li.
"Why is Concubine Li looking at me like this?" Concubine Wan said with a smile.
Concubine Li said: "Nothing."
What I'm thinking about is, Concubine Wan, it's best that this matter has nothing to do with you, otherwise your Wang family will be implicated by you!
Concubine Ning didn't pay attention to Concubine Wan, and was gnashing her teeth!
Because she has reason to suspect that this matter may have something to do with the concubine!
The one who benefits the most is of course whoever made the move!
There was such a big accident at the annual banquet hosted by her and Concubine Li, but Concubine Zhen shined brightly. Could this have something to do with Concubine Zhen?
It's best not to let her get caught, otherwise, she will never let the concubine go.
Anyone who wants to step on her to get the upper hand will be unlucky, and Concubine Wan is the best example!
But now she has no evidence, and the concubine Zhen naturally became the biggest winner at this year's annual banquet, making a big appearance.
After the atmosphere of the banquet returned, Situ Ji chatted with the courtiers about home affairs.
Princess Duan and others were also concerned about Queen Yin Ruhua's pregnancy symptoms. It was like a family annual banquet, and the atmosphere was good.
After all, everyone who can come to this banquet is not a fool. Who would keep an eye on something like that?
They quickly forgot about this matter and warmed the atmosphere.
When the New Year's banquet was almost over, Situ Ji helped the queen, Yin Ruhua, to leave the banquet first.
The concubines also left one after another, leaving only the courtiers.
However, Yin Ruhua, who had already returned to Jiaofang Hall, did not care about these matters.
Because of pregnancy, all the essence and blood of a person have to nourish the two children in the body. Although they are still young, Yin Ruhua's mother's body is easily tired.
But after lying down, Yin Ruhua couldn't help but ask Situ Ji, "Your Majesty, did what happened tonight be done by remnants of the previous dynasty?"
"What do you think?" Situ Ji held her in his arms and asked.
Yin Ruhua frowned, "Why don't I think so? Such an inconsequential matter will not cause any actual harm to the Emperor or the Yong Dynasty, but it will alert others and expose their existence."
Although it has been thoroughly investigated, there may still be fish that have slipped through the net in this Xianyang Palace.
But I will definitely be extremely cautious. How could I make such a big show of making small moves? I'm afraid I don't want to live long.
You have to save your life to do something worthwhile, right?
"There will be results tomorrow." Situ Ji said.
Yin Ruhua didn't say anything after hearing this. She was so sleepy that her eyelids started to fight, so she fell asleep in his arms after a while.
When I woke up the next day, I felt full from sleep.
Situ Ji went to the Imperial Study Room. Even if it was the first day of the Lunar New Year this year, he would still handle government affairs, because there would always be some matters to deal with.
I heard that Master Wang was called in today.
But these are not what Yin Ruhua should be concerned about. When the ice pot and jade pot were waiting for washing, he said: "Your Majesty, Concubine Li and Concubine Ning came here early to apologize."
Yin Ruhua responded.
After having breakfast, I went out to see the two of them first.
"I have met the Queen." Concubine Li and Concubine Ning both bowed and knelt down directly.
"Sit down." Yin Ruhua said calmly after sitting down.
"Thank you, Queen, but I don't dare to get up." Concubine Li said with a bitter smile.
"Please punish me, the Queen," Concubine Ning also said.
The two of them hosted the New Year's Eve banquet, but if something like this happened, they were both to blame.
Yin Ruhua glanced at them and said, "It is indeed your fault that such mistakes occurred at the New Year's banquet, but I also know that this matter has nothing to do with you. Today is also the first day of the Lunar New Year, so just have a good New Year."
