The Ancient Growth Diary of a Little Zombie

Chapter 264: He can’t survive without his wife, right?

Xiao Wang, who was attending such an occasion for the first time, felt even more nervous than the previous two times she went to the Golden Throne Hall.

There was no other reason, it was just that the inquiring looks of the ladies at the banquet were too naked.

Little Wang lowered her head deeply and huddled beside Xu like a quail, motionless.

As for Princess Xu, her identity was recognized by everyone because of her dark red palace dress with dark blue flowing patterns and gold edges.

After all, the only person in Da Xia who can wear this dress is Princess Yongchang.

Shi Shi, who has already made friends with some young ladies, doesn't care about other people's looks at him at this moment.

As soon as she sat down, she excitedly chatted with Chen Siting, the fourth daughter of the Duke of Huguo.

Chen Siyu, who is calm and reserved, sat on the other side of her sister, leaning sideways, watching the two whispering with a smile on her face.

Shishi winked at Chen Siting and whispered smugly:

"Just wait and see, I'll be the Ice Queen!"

Hearing similar words again, Chen Siting's eyes were full of doubts, but her tone was still unconsciously surprised.

"real or fake?"

The officials' wives and children standing nearby were also gathered in groups of three or four, whispering to each other about who these two unfamiliar figures, one big and one small, were.

But as my father-in-law sang in a shrill voice:

"Your Majesty, the Queen is here!"

The noisy banquet hall suddenly fell silent for a moment, and then everyone knelt on the ground and shouted in unison:

“Long live my emperor!

Long live the Queen!"

After a while, Chen Siting didn't hear the emperor asking her to stand up. She raised her head quietly with some confusion, but she had just raised her head halfway when the emperor didn't see her.

First I saw Shisi, who looked quite calm, sitting steadily on the futon, busy stuffing cakes into his little mouth.

This frightened Chen Siting, and she quickly reached out and quietly pulled her gauze skirt.

It's a pity that the fine soft gauze skirt was almost torn to pieces by her.

What she got in return was the little girl looking at her with her big, confused eyes.

Seeing her silly look, Chen Siting lowered her head, loosened her hand, and gave up.

She silently moved her knees and turned her body to the side, trying to block her good sister's rude behavior.

Seeing this, Shishi raised her eyebrows, then continued to stuff a piece of cake into her mouth, then looked up at the two people standing on the high platform in the front.

I remember what everyone just shouted.

The corpse was a little confused.

Why did the Empress live so much less than the Emperor?

This little prince looks much older than his wife!

He probably can’t survive without his wife, right?

Shishi was sitting in the front, and when the emperor and the empress stepped onto the platform, they saw the eccentric little girl at a glance.

Later, he could see all the little movements of the two people.

The Queen had heard from the Emperor about some matters concerning the little goddess.

But this was the first time I saw it, and I was still shocked by its appearance.

The queen subconsciously raised her eyes slightly, her eyes moving as she glanced at the face beside her.

Sure enough, the emperor was staring at the little girl, with the corners of his mouth twitching.

Then the emperor slowly withdrew his gaze and pretended not to see anything.

Then he swept his gaze towards the group of people prostrating themselves on the ground, and after he sat down, he said in a deep voice:

"Everyone, please stand up and take a seat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After a burst of neat and respectful voices fell, everyone stood up and sat back in their original seats.

The first thing Chen Siting did after she sat down was to stretch out her hand to twist the soft flesh on the corpse's waist with her little face pale from fear, and she gritted her teeth and whispered:

“Sang Shishi!

You are too bold!

Don't you want to live?"

Shishi seemed not to notice her little movement. He tilted his head, looked at her with curved eyebrows, and smiled without saying a word.

Chen Siting felt a little frightened by the little girl's gaze. She silently withdrew her mischievous hands and, like most people, raised her eyes to look at the platform.

As the eldest daughter of the Duke of Huguo, she had the honor of meeting the emperor many times.

But today, why does His Majesty look a little weird?

Not only her, but others felt the same way.

Today, His Majesty's complexion looks even whiter than that of the Empress standing beside him.

And the head seems to have grown a lot bigger.

Although he knew that someone was secretly watching him, the emperor could only bite the bullet and pretend not to see it, and raised his index finger to Eunuch Sun beside him.

Eunuch Sun immediately understood, swung the whisk in his hand, turned around and shouted:

"The banquet begins~"

Most of the ministers, officials and their families present didn't even know what kind of banquet this was, but the melodious sounds of zithers and harps rang out in the hall.

Outside the palace gate, dancers in peach-colored dance costumes walked in gracefully to the sound of piano, and began to dance gracefully in the center of the palace.

Oh, right.

It was called a banquet, but apart from a few plates of fruits and snacks in front of a little girl, there was nothing in front of everyone else.

No one dared to speak or ask!

I could only suppress my doubts and pretend that it was just like any other banquet, pretending to enjoy the dance or chatting with the people around me.

In fact, his inquiring and suspicious eyes kept glancing back and forth between the emperor and the little girl.

Normally, the emperor should make an announcement or say a few polite words before the banquet begins.

But...the dentures given to him by the goddess.

I don't know if he didn't understand it clearly or what, but he chose two single-tooth ones and wore them.

As he was talking, he fell down without noticing.

So the emperor made up his mind tonight not to open his mouth if possible.

After the dance, the sound of the piano became slow and soft, and palace maids with trays in their hands came in one after another. The whole banquet hall was suddenly filled with the fragrant and sweet smell of food.

As the palace maids left, a few exquisite small plates appeared on the table in front of everyone.

The emperor cast a look at Eunuch Sun.

Eunuch Sun bowed slightly, then turned around again, took two steps forward, and shouted loudly:

"Tonight is a celebration party!

God bless Daxia and give us divine seeds that yield thousands of kilograms per mu!

Therefore, Your Majesty invites you all to taste this divine delicacy together!

Please come in~"

After Eunuch Sun finished speaking, he made a gesture of invitation and then slowly stepped aside.

Everyone looked at each other, then at the emperor above, and then at the several dishes in front of them, but each dish only contained one or two bites of the so-called divine delicacies.

Some ministers with quick eyes and quick hands had the honor of tasting the flavor of this divine seed during the morning court session.

However, many wives of officials have never even heard their husbands/fathers mention the word "divine seed" when they returned home.

Although I have never seen these foods before, it is not surprising to see some new and unusual things appear occasionally at palace banquets.

Everyone picked up their chopsticks and began to taste the food in small sips.

Most of the ladies in the boudoir did not pay attention to what Eunuch Sun said about the yield of several thousand kilograms per mu. They just thought that these delicacies were very delicious, but the amount of food was too small this time.

Just as I tasted what it was, it was gone.

Only the mistress of the house, who was in charge of the household finances, knew the importance of this divine seed, just like the ministers sitting opposite her.

Seeing that everyone had almost finished tasting, Eunuch Sun stepped forward again and asked with a loud laugh:

"What do you think of this delicacy?"

The people sitting below were silent for a moment after hearing this, and then they all smiled and nodded in approval.

Eunuch Sun smiled and glanced at everyone, then reached out and took a bright yellow imperial edict from the eunuch beside him.

Upon seeing this, everyone fell silent and stood up and knelt on the ground again.
