Chapter 803 Annual Banquet (1)
At three o'clock in the morning, an inconspicuous carriage stopped at the gate of the palace. At this ti, several carriages had stopped at the entrance of the palace, and more carriages stopped one after another. Ministers in official uniforms and their wives got off the carriages.
Of course, these ladies have official orders, otherwise, no matter how high their husbands official position is, he would not be qualified to enter the palace. As for the children of their officials, they are not eligible to participate in the annual banquet without a special permission.
Therefore, when they saw Mo Yan, who was young and very unfamiliar, the ministers and wives who had not yet entered the palace were very surprised and secretly guessed her identity. But after all, they are polite people, so they were surprised, but they didn't stare at Mo Yan directly.
So ministers had t Mo Yan during the palace trial. Although Mo Yan had no real power, his rank was there, so he took his wife and ca forward to salute: "The minister (the minister's wife) has t the Lord Hejia County!"
Mo Yan didnt recognize the two people in front of him. Seeing that the officials were wearing official uniforms with Yunyan patterns representing the fourth rank, he returned a half-salute: "My lord and madam, there is no need to be polite!"
There was no second county prince in the entire Da Chu, and others soon knew Mo Yans identity. Even if they knew that this prince had a humble background, no one dared to look down upon him. Who caught the eye of His Highness the Crown Prince and was the only prince personally nad by the king of a country?
Everyone did not dare to neglect and stepped forward to salute one after another.
Mo Yan returned the greetings one by one with a smile on her face. She did not hold it back deliberately because of her status, nor did she feel any embarrassnt at all. Her manners were dignified, her words and deeds were just right, no one could find a single fault in her, but it surprised so people who wanted to see a joke.
Mo Yan has practiced these etiquette rules beforehand. Otherwise, if sothing goes wrong, he will be the one who gets laughed at. Others dont care that you are from a farrs family, and it is understandable that you dont know etiquette.
After the ministers and ladies left, Mo Yan breathed a sigh of relief and said to Li Zhong who drove her here: "Grandpa Li, the New Year's banquet will end at midnight. It will take a long ti. If you feel bored, just bring Dahongzao, lets go wandering around the streets!
The palace banquet started at Xu hour and ended in the middle of Zi hour. Now it is half way through You hour, so it will take at least three hours. But Mo Yan forgot, tonight is New Year's Eve, every household has to stay up late, the streets are very deserted, there is nothing to go shopping.
Li Zhong didn't point out, pointing to the rickshaw drivers who were chatting together in groups not far away, and said with a smile: "Grandpa Li is not the only one here, chatting with them, the ti will pass quickly, so you can go without worries! "
Seeing this, Mo Yan quickly got into the carriage and took out a bulging bundle: "Grandpa Li, I'm afraid you'll be bored waiting, so I've prepared so roasted seeds and nuts for you. You can share so with them later. There are quite a few. !
"Yan Yatou is still attentive. With just this, Grandpa Li won't be bored anymore, haha!" Li Zhong happily took it. Before he opened it, he could sll the fragrant sll of fried pine nuts, mixed with peanuts, lon seeds, ginkgo, etc. The fragrance.
Mo Yan smiled, told Li Zhong to take shelter from the wind and keep warm, then turned and entered the palace gate. Coincidentally, Xiao Ruiyuan and Yan Junyu ca in just as the young **** stepped forward to lead the way.
With his sharp face, Yan Junyu saw Mo Yan in front of him first. He bumped Xiao Ruiyuan next to him with his elbow and winked and said, "I didn't expect to et that girl when I entered the palace. We should go up and say hello."
After saying that, he strode forward and greeted Mo Yan familiarly: "Little girl, the old man liked the New Year's gift from your predecessor. You can give more next ti so that he won't have to spend the whole day with ." Its so annoying to hear it in my ears.
Yan Junyu spoke very naturally, and he looked so carefree. People who ca and went did not doubt that there was anything between the two of them. After all, he was such a virtuous man, and they were all familiar with His Highness the Crown Prince, and they had a good relationship with each other in private. Its not strange to give New Years gifts. Didnt you notice the New Years gifts and alarm Mr. Wu An?
