The Mid-Autumn Festival came on August 15, but the King’s Mansion did not see any festive events.
Of course, this was only Xiaohua's opinion. She never left Jingtai Hall. Naturally, she didn't know that other palace people outside were actually quite busy, because King Jing had to host a banquet for fief officials in the Cargo Ship Hall.
Excluding all the bad factors, being a vassal in the Daxi Dynasty is actually quite good.
The imperial court gave the vassal great freedom. Except for some necessary precautions, the fief was equivalent to a vassal of the vassal.
Even if the King Jing is in charge of the King, the officials below will certainly confess to confessing during the New Year holidays. After all, people are motivated, and even if King King feels disgusted with this kind of activity, he has to hold it occasionally. Always tell the people below, "Well, you are very good, and the lonely king is very satisfied with you. In order to reward everyone, we will hold a banquet today to show that you are serious."
So this kind of occasion became an occasion for King Jing and his subordinates to exchange'emotions'.
No one who is an official in Jingzhou does not know the character of the person in front of him.
This one is not used to anything, just one does not speak, and of course he is not a dumb. When King Jing first came to the feudal clan, some people below heard that the five dumb princes in Beijing said it, but after staying there for a long time, they found out. King Jing is actually not dumb, but just not talking.
At this moment, King Jing was sitting on the upper seat of the Hall of Transport, holding a cup and drinking himself, as if the celebration below had nothing to do with him.King Jing wore an orthodox prince's crown today, looking majestic and handsome.It's a pity that his indifferent aura is too big, and people always notice his indifference first instead of his handsome face.
Even if everyone saw such a discordant scene, they would treat it as if they hadn't seen it, and even have a good time.
This is the welfare of the upper person. Even if you lack interest, the lower people must work hard to create a lively atmosphere so as not to anger the upper person.
What happened?The lonely king hosted a banquet to entertain you. You dare to cry and lose your face. Why are you not happy?
So the banquet went lively in this weird atmosphere, not looking at King King’s indifferent face and ignoring him from the beginning to the end, which was actually quite harmonious.
Halfway through the banquet, an official of forty or so walked to the court to kneel and bow.
"His Royal Highness, the next official is Lucheng Tongzhi Zhu Dajian. It is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and a gift for His Highness."
After that, a young girl of fifteen or sixteen years old walked in Yingying from the gate of the hall. She was wearing a green shirt, a long skirt with moon white embroidered grass, and she was wearing a green water chiffon. The waist is like suppleness, the muscles are like fat, the eyes are full of spring water and clear waves, what a beauty!
Other people at the banquet realized that this is for the beauty?!
Everyone looked at the fellow Zhu Dajian with weird eyes, which seemed to be a good show.
"This is the little girl Biyan, who knows singing and dancing, and knows the rhythm of music. She is 15 years old and dedicated to His Royal Highness King Jing."
I have to say that this Zhu Dajian is a veteran official's oily man who dedicated his daughter to others, or in front of so many people, on the surface, he is not at all ambiguous.Don't say there is no expression of shame, even with a smile on his face as usual.
The young girl named Biyan knelt down beside her father.Although she can't see her face, her graceful figure is undoubtedly revealed in her prone gesture.In particular, the light from the palace lanterns in the palace shone on his body, and the skin on his neck and neck was crystal clear as if it were transparent.
It's a pity that the pretty eyes were shown to the blind, and King Jing's eyes were faint, but it didn't seem to gather on the young girl.
On the other hand, ordinary people would definitely say something, and accepting it is'hahaha, the lonely king will accept Zhu Tongzhi's goodwill'.If you don't accept it, generally the beauties sent by the people below will generally accept it.After all, offering beauty at a banquet is not uncommon, and it is generally not rejected on such occasions.
It's a pity that I met a freak today, who didn't say a word, didn't show anything, and didn't even bother to give the next one.
The hall was quiet for a while, and Zhu Dajian and his daughter, who were kneeling down below, couldn't help becoming nervous.The music was playing in the hall all the time. I don't know when it stopped, and Zhu Dajian seemed to hear a faint laugh next to him.
It stands to reason that someone should come out to make the rounds at this time. The most suitable candidate for this job is Zuo Changshi Guanzheng of Changshisi.
It's a pity that Guan Zheng just came to Jingzhou not long after he was not familiar with his subordinate officials. King Jing never liked to talk to him. He didn't want to be boring because of the arrogance of a scholar.
What's more, Guan Zheng has been working at the Changshi Division of the King’s Palace for a while. He faintly felt that Chang Shili’s colleagues seemed to exclude him, but he himself wanted to leave when the time came, and it was not too much. serious.Seeing the cold field at this time, he felt grievances in his heart, and he would not go forward to round the field.
"Zhu Tongzhi is too cautious. Our Royal Highness is not a serious person, so go back to the banquet and sit down." Fushun walked down quickly with a smile on his face and raised him diligently.
Called a little eunuch again, "Hurry up and send Miss Zhu down to rest."
As soon as the voice was over, the music in the hall began to sound again, and the others at the banquet began to raise their glasses and push up again, as if the embarrassing scene just did not happen.
Zhu Dajian sat down in panic, and an official next to him approached and said, "This is the first time you have come to King's Mansion, this one of us, this is not good. Moreover, by nature, he is reticent. , No one usually clears the siege, and you are not the first to be ashamed and angry."
"The little girl, didn't the little girl go to rest?" Zhu Dajian was still thinking about it.
The officer's eyes were weird, "You'll know later." After that, he went to drink with other people.
After the banquet was over, Zhu Dajian was still thinking about "you'll know in a while", and when he walked to the carriage parking place, he heard the next person say that the lady had been resting in the carriage for quite a while.

In the King’s Mansion, the palace eunuchs also had food tonight, and even the mansion even gave out two mooncakes to everyone.
Daxi Dynasty had the custom of Mid-Autumn Festival. Although he could not reunite with his family, he still had a festive atmosphere.
Not to mention in Jingtai Hall. There is a banquet in front of the palace. There are a few tables and noodles specially made in the small kitchen, and the eunuchs and palace people below are lively together for the festival.
Xiao Hua and Chun Cao were used by the older palace maids in the small kitchen. The palace servants who worked in the small kitchen had different personalities, but they still liked the little girl.
After dinner, Mother He saw that Xiaohua liked to eat moon cakes and gave her two more.
Xiaohua had eaten moon cakes before, when he was in Jinyanghoufu, but the mooncakes at Jingwangfu were obviously much better than there.Mooncakes are filled with red beans and mung beans, which are sweet but not greasy.Xiaohua likes to eat it, but it is a pity that Mother He said that this food can't be eaten too much.
Xiao Hua took the moon cake given by Mother He back to her house and gave one to Chuncao.It is true that I don’t feel it when I eat it, and I will inevitably feel a little tired after eating mooncakes.
Xiao Hua ran to touch the kettle and found that the water in the kettle was cold.She didn't want to drink cold water. It was sweet and greasy. Drinking some hot water would make it more comfortable. Thinking that there was no boiling water in the small kitchen at the moment, Xiao Hua moved her mind to the tea room in the temple.
There is a small stove in the pantry, and people boil water all day long, so it is convenient for your Highness to drink tea.
After staying in Jingtai Hall for a long time, Xiao Hua's courage has grown a lot, and thinking that his Royal Highness will not come back at a banquet in front of him at night, Xiao Hua took her little teapot and went to the temple.
After entering the pantry, the little eunuch who usually takes care of the pantry is not there. It is estimated that he is still eating wine. Sure enough, a copper kettle is boiling hot water on the small stove.Xiao Hua has boiled water on a small stove, and of course knows how to make a mess.
After a while, the water boiled, Xiao Hua poured boiling water into her pot, and then added some water to the copper pot.Reduced the fire of the small stove, carried his teapot, and walked out.
As soon as I walked to the gate of the palace, I saw King Jing came back, followed by Fushun.
For a while, the little teapot had nowhere to hide, Xiao Huagan smiled and knelt down to salute.
Sure enough, the two of them didn't say anything about her. King Jing went to the temple, but when Fushun walked to her side, he said, "Go and make your Royal Highness a cup of tea."
"Yes."
Xiaohua stuffed her little teapot anywhere, and went to the pantry to make tea.
After making tea and serving it, no one spoke, and she did not dare to go, so she could only stand by as a pillar.
The room was very quiet. King Jing seemed to be drinking too much, and he kept leaning there and rubbing his brows with his hands.King Jing's dress today is very different from the past, and his royal crown suit is very majestic.Because of drunkenness, his eyes were not as indifferent as before, and they looked hazy.The usual faint lip color now looks extremely bright, adding some enchanting color.
Xiao Hua knew that King Jing had always looked good, but at this time she was stunned, and quickly lowered her head.
Fushun waited diligently on the side, "His Royal Highness wakes up with a cup of strong tea, is it a headache?"
King Jing couldn't drink enough, he would get drunk every time when there was a banquet in the mansion.However, his wine tastes good, and he will only have a headache when he is drunk, and he will not lose his temper.
"Or else, the minion serves you to rest, right?"
King Jing drank the tea and sat for a while before standing up. Judging from his walking and manners, he did not look drunk at all.
Fushun wanted to lift his heels, and saw the little flower standing beside him.
"Come on with you too, help."
The little eunuchs who served King Jing on weekdays didn't know where they went, so Xiao Hua could only follow Fushun to the back bedroom.
This is the first time for Xiao Hua to come to the back bedroom of Jingtai Hall. The furnishings in the hall are even luxurious, but they look very low-key and magnificent. They only turn to the inner hall. As soon as you look at it, there is a large bed with heavy purple embroideries all around. Dragon curtain.
King Jing stood still in front of the bed with his shoulders flat. Fushun stood aside and took off the crown from King King's head. During this time, he made gestures to let Xiaohua undress King King.
This is the first time that Xiaohua has served King Jing so personally. She is no stranger to undressing a man. She has undressed the Fourth Young Master quite a few times in her previous life.But somehow, when she put her hand on King Jing's belt, she was a little cramped.The full-bodied scent of alcohol between her mouth and nose brought a touch of man's taste, and she became nervous for no reason.
Xiao Hua moved cautiously until she took off her clothes. King Jing sat on the couch and waited for someone to take off his shoes. Xiao Hua cautiously stepped forward and knelt off King King's boots.
Just after putting down the boots in his hand, An Cheng didn't know where it came from. He took a basin of water in a copper basin and set it at King Jing's feet, and then he stood aside.
what does this mean?
Xiao Hua glanced back, Fushun stood far away, her face was full of smiles, Ancheng was not far away, but the attitude of others was obviously not ready to intervene.
Xiaohua's eyes flickered, and she had to honestly take off King Jing's foot socks, put his feet in the copper basin, and began to wash his feet.
King Jing's feet are very large, compared with Xiaohua's hands, which are only half of them.King Jing's feet were also very white, Xiao Hua compared them, and they were a little whiter than her hands.
How could it be possible that the maidservant hadn't washed the feet before, so Xiao Hua put her hands in the water and rubbed King Jing's feet carefully.Anyway, the feet of the masters are more fragrant than the hands of the slaves, and Xiao Hua has nothing to respond to at this time.Moreover, King Jing's feet didn't smell bad, they were very clean.
After washing, the little eunuch next to him handed a cotton pad over, and Xiao Hua took the cotton pad and wiped the water on his feet.
After finishing her work, Xiao Hua was already out of breath, not tired, but too nervous.
I thought that it was all right. She could retreat to the room and comfort her frightened heart. Who knew that the drunk man suddenly came: "Pinch your back."
A shock of thunder slammed on top of Xiao Hua's head, making her dumbfounded.
King Jing had already posed on the couch, just waiting for the little flowers.
Fushun coughed slightly from the side, and Xiaohua Lima approached as if electrocuted.
She still wanted to struggle, turned her head and said to Fushun with embarrassment: "Manager Fu, slaves and maids need to clean their hands."
She touched King Jing's foot just now, and touched the back of the one who touched the foot. If King Jing didn't hammer her to death, Fushun would also hammer her to death.
Fushun made a move, and two more young eunuchs came out with a basin of water in their hands, and there was a waiter with a veil next to him, and even balsam.
Xiaohua smiled bitterly in her heart, feeling like she was being driven off the shelf by a duck. She washed her hands and wiped her balsam. She took a deep breath and came to the couch.
She didn't dare to see what King King looked like at this time, rubbing her hands to heat, and standing on the edge of the bed, she bent over and began to rub.
Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. It's not the first time to do this. Don't get nervous because you change places. It's nothing to be nervous.
After soothing herself for a while, Xiao Hua no longer felt nervous and began to give King Jing a serious massage.
When Xiaohua gets serious, she will be very focused. When she comes down and presses her back, she turns her head quietly. She turned her head slightly, and found that Fushun and the eunuch beside her had disappeared somehow. The curtains are also lowered.
