Chapter 420
Can't escape
The inner supervisor continued to shout, "The Empress Dowager is here! The Imperial Concubine is here!"
Everyone knelt down and bowed one by one. The emperor was very happy. He had heard about what happened in the hall just now, so he looked at Chu Shanhai and his son with more appreciation.
The banquet did not have too many complicated rules. The emperor said a few polite words to celebrate peace and announced the beginning of the banquet.
The musician started playing music, and suddenly a dozen slim palace maids burst out from the hall, and began to dance with the music, which made them feel a bit like the life of the world.
The dance was really good. Many of the envoys in Mobei were crazy about it, and it was not a big deal that they had no knowledge. After all, most of the women in Mobei had a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and they were rarely as slender and white as Tianchen's women.
Not to mention that this is a dancer carefully selected by Concubine Xian and trained herself, and a dance she rehearsed herself, so it is naturally a unique flavor.
With such music, the atmosphere gradually became lively. The court officials toasted Chu Shanhai one after another. A few brave ones ran to the envoys in the north of the Mo to mock him and sarcastically. From time to time, they would sing a few words about the emperor and the queen mother's flattery. The banquet went smoothly.
The banquet is coming to an end, but the emperor and the empress dowager show no sign of giving them marriage.
Chu Li even began to wonder if he had misunderstood what Ma Wenjie said, but in fact, things were not what he thought.
But just when Chu Li was suspicious of himself, something happened!
The empress dowager sat on the top and suddenly started talking to herself, "The dances that Empress Xian rehearsed were really good. All the palace maids in the Jiaofangsi were beautiful and danced well, and they looked like they had put a lot of thought into it.
Everyone is happy to see here today. The Ai family should reward Concubine Xian well!"
The emperor naturally had no objection, "The Empress Dowager is right. When the banquet ends today, I will order the commendation of Empress Xian."
The Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction, and then said, "It's just that I see the dance leader in the middle is slightly worse."
The emperor put down the chopsticks in his hand and looked at the empress dowager in confusion. The empress dowager turned around and looked at Ma Qingyue beside him, "Imperial Concubine, the Ai family heard that He An had practiced a green waist dance in the palace these days. I heard that he had achieved some success. You can call her to jump, so that guests from afar can see the charm of my royal woman!"
Ma Qingyue lowered her head and responded with pleasure, "Since the mother wants to see, He Anding will definitely not refuse. I am going to call her by someone, I wonder what Your Majesty thinks?"
The words were clearly asked knowingly. The Empress Dowager was the first to say this proposal. How could the emperor use force to make her own mother unable to come to Taiwan?
Sure enough, the emperor nodded slightly, "My mother wants to see, so she goes and calls He'an."
After Ma Qingyue got permission, she quickly sent someone to spread the songs and dances in the hall were still in progress, but most of the people present were not interested in this.
No matter how well these palace maids danced, they would definitely not be as good as Princess He'an. Everyone wanted to see the lotus dance soon, so naturally they would not be able to see the dance in front of them.
At this time, Chu Shanhai and his son were already in chaos. It seemed that what they were worried about was going to come true after all!
Chu Li lowered his voice slightly and said while eating peanuts on the table: "Father, there is no way around you at the moment. If the empress dowager really wants to give him a marriage, the child can only interrupt the empress dowager and show that he doesn't want to get married yet!"
