Chapter 45 Family Banquet

 Slanting wind and drizzle welcome spring again,

The sweet sound of Yingyan can be heard in my ears.

Misty clouds and smoke open the picture,

The person in front of you is the person you like.

After returning home, it is human nature to have a meal as a family. Zhu Hengjia’s family banquet was held in the Royal Garden of Jingjiang City.

Sitting behind a golden dragon banquet table facing north and south is Zhu Hengjia;

On the left side, behind a large banquet table with seven Zhai and three phoenixes facing the west seat and east, sit the concubine Shi Xian of the Yuan Dynasty, the crown prince Zhu Ruoji, and the king of Xing'an County Zhu Hui'e;

Sitting at the head table in the west are the second concubine Chen Shufei, the monarch of Yining County Zhu Huishan, and the monarch of Yangshuo County Zhu Huimao;

At the second table, seated were Concubine Wang Zhuang, the King of Fuchuan County Zhu Huiti, and the royal guest of honor Zhou Yucheng (son-in-law of Zhu Tingjia, husband of Zhu Huiti);

At the third table, Liu Debin and Zhu Huiyuan, the king of Lingchuan County, were sitting. Zhu Huiyuan was married to Wang Gui, the royal guest of honor. Wang Gui was sent by Zhu Hengjia to be the deputy envoy to negotiate peace with Emperor Longwu and was not in Guilin;

Sitting at the four tables are Zhao Xianbin and Zhu Huiyan, the king of Yongfu County;

At the fifth table, sit Li Zhuang's concubine and Zhu Huiting, the monarch of Lipu County;

At table six, sat the newly named Huang Huibin, also known as Huang Wan and Huang Empress.

Originally, Huang Wan had just entered the palace, and she should have been given the title of a lady, and she should have selected attendants, nobles, talents, beauties, Zhaoyi, Jieyu, etc. However, Zhu Hengjia thought that Huang Wan was the first person he had fallen in love with since time travel, which was of great significance, so he jumped directly to it.

After passing the first seven levels, she was granted the title of concubine. And she was not an ordinary concubine. Hui concubine ranked fifth among the nine concubines in the palace, second only to De concubine, Xian concubine, Zhuang concubine and Li concubine, and higher than An concubine and He concubine.

, Xi concubine, Kang concubine. Only those who are concubines are qualified to eat with Zhu Hengjia.

According to Zhu Hengjia's temperament, he wished he could just give Huang Wan a concubine. As a result, Shi Shi, the concubine of the Yuan Dynasty, urged that the newcomer be consorted too quickly, which was not conducive to the unity of the harem. Zhu Hengjia reluctantly compromised. Even so, it was a leap. It attracted Liu De

The concubines, Zhao Xianconcubine, Li Zhuangconcubine and others murmured in private. There were constant discussions such as "the fox charms the Lord", "only the new people smile, but not the old people crying", "the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves in front, and the waves in front die on the beach".

.Zhu Hengjia only said nothing.

"Today is a family banquet. Don't be restrained, let's eat freely!" After returning home, Zhu Hengjia was very happy. Regardless of etiquette, he walked to Concubine Shi Xian's table and stuffed a snack into his son Zhu Xuanji's mouth.

"Concubine Shi, please congratulate your highness on your triumphant return!" Concubine Shi Xian led the concubines and children to congratulate Zhu Hengjia

"Oh! Gudu said, don't be too polite! Come, come, come, sit down and have some snacks."

After all the beauties took their seats, Zhu Hengjia looked at it carefully. It was so nice! It was like entering a hundred gardens!

Concubine Shi Xian, who is just thirty years old this year, wears a seven-died and three-phoenix crown, and a bright red satin phoenix robe with phoenix and pheasant embroidered on the robe. She has a slim figure, a graceful figure, skin like gelatin, and fingers like green onions.

, there is a dignified, elegant, and majestic nobility all over her body. She is truly a majestic and majestic mother to the world.

Concubine Chen Shu, who is thirty-three years old this year, wears a phoenix crown, decorated with pearls and hairpins, and a light-colored phoenix robe with gold and red makeup. Her eyes are charming, her lightly curled black hair reaches her waist, and she is wearing a thin layer of pink and white.

Peaches and plums, a pair of green jade bracelets on Hao's wrist, just like a fairy descending to earth, not eating the fireworks of the world.

Concubine Wang Zhuang is forty-one years old this year. After the death of Zhu Hengjia's predecessor, Concubine Yuan, she became like Zhu Hengjia's poor wife. Wearing a phoenix crown, a fire phoenix with a pearl hairpin, and an elegant white phoenix robe, she is delicate and elegant.

Her face is peaceful and comfortable, her skin is well-maintained, and there are no traces of time.

Liu Debin, forty years old this year, is also an old man in the harem. She wears peony hair, silk jade pendants ringing in her ears, her eyebrows are drawn carefully, rouge is lightly applied, she is dressed in blue brocade clothes, her body is as plump as a spring flower.

Begonia.

Zhao Xianbi was originally the personal maid of Concubine Shi Xian. She is twenty-six years old this year. She has three thousand green hair and a deer hairpin held up high. She is wearing a magnolia butterfly cloak robe and purple jade on her waist. Her elegant eyes are as pure as water.

The facial features are exquisite, with eyebrows like willow moons and mouth like cherries.

Li Zhuangbi, twenty-three years old this year, wears a lotus crown on her head, her hair is combed, she wears a light purple lotus petal jade-ribbed gauze dress, and a milky white pearl necklace around her neck. She has a beautiful melon-seed face and watery eyes.

Waves, frowns and smiles, graceful and charming.

Huang Huibin, who just celebrated her 19th birthday, is wearing a double-snail bun (this is originally a folk girl's bun, but Zhu Hengjia likes it the most), with an emerald hairpin inserted sideways, and a thin strand of silver tassels hanging down from her upper body.

Wearing a palace robe with two butterflies playing in the water, and a pomegranate skirt embroidered with hundreds of immortals on the lower body, she has bright eyes and fine eyes, bundled with delicate fibers, a shallow smile, and endless aftertaste.

"Play music!" You?? Feng Heliang sang loudly, interrupting Zhu Hengjia's aesthetic appreciation.

Zhu Hengjia glanced at He Liang: Hey! This slave He Liang is good at everything, but he is too rigid and doesn’t know how to adapt!

It turned out that Zhu Hengjia learned from the unofficial history read by later generations that after his rebellion failed, He Liang held his only son Zhu Ruoji in his arms, escaped into Buddhism, and raised him with great pains. Zhu Ruoji grew up.

Later, he became a painter of the generation, with the pseudonym Shi Tao and the nickname Monk Balsam Pear. With such loyalty, Zhu Hengjia changed his position from internal service to right service, and was responsible for the palace etiquette and other matters.

As a result, this change made things worse!

As a time traveler, Zhu Hengjia felt that the banquet etiquette of the Jingjiang Prince's Palace was too cumbersome. Music was played nine times, and every time his family had to get up and leave the banquet to salute him, which made the family unable to eat well. He asked He Liang to cancel the music during the family banquet.

As a result, He Liang said that "rituals cannot be discarded" and that "there is no small matter in supervising the country, and a family banquet is a state banquet." He also said that even if Zhu Hengjia chopped off his head, he would still follow the ancestral rules. Zhu Hengjia had nothing to do with him.

I had no choice but to compromise: the music would still be played nine times during the toast, but the family members would not have to leave the table, but would just sit and salute.

There is no way, the power of feudal ethics is too powerful!

"One day I have to find a reason to slap He Liang and spread his ass," Zhu Hengjia thought angrily.

In the first round of toasts, the Jiaofang Secretary played "Song of the Flame Spirit". Concubine Shi Xian led everyone to toast to Zhu Hengjia, and Zhu Hengjia drank it all happily.

The wine is good wine, Guilin Ruilu. It is brewed from high-quality rice and Lijiang water with no strange smell and impurities. It is stored in caves that are warm in winter and cool in summer. It is clear and green, mellow and fragrant.

What’s better than wine is the people you drink with!

During the second round of toasts, "The Song of Imperial Style" was played. After the performance, a group of warriors danced vigorously: "Dance to Peace the World." To bring peace to the world, who can be left alone? Do it!

In the third round of toasts, "The Song of the Ming Dynasty" was played, and there was another dance: "Dance to Appease the Four Barbarians". To appease the four barbarians, I must be alone! Do it!

In the fourth round of toasts, "The Legend of Tiandao" was played, and the dance began to soften: "Dance of Cars and Books".

In the fifth round, play "The Song of Zhenhuanggang" and dance "Dance of the Hundred Operas".

In the sixth round, we played "The Song of Jinling" and danced "Eight Barbarians Presenting Treasure Dance".

In the seventh round, "Changyang Song" was played and "Lotus Picking Team Dance" was performed.

In the eighth round, play "Fragrance Song" and dance "Fish Leap in the Deep Dance".

In the ninth round, "The Song of Riding the Six Dragons" was played.

After the toast, the dishes began to be served. Play freely and have fun. Zhu Hengjia was intoxicated in the ocean of happiness!
