I've waited for you for a thousand years, and I've lived this life just to meet you
Chapter 56: 1 "Colorful Clouds Chasing the Moon"
They returned to Fengluan Palace, entered the space to wash up, and then fell asleep in each other's arms.
In the past two days, the entire palace has been busy with Su Yuer's pregnancy. The imperial kitchen prepares nutritious meals in different ways every day, and the palace maids serve her more attentively.
Xiao Mohan stayed by Su Yuer's side as soon as the morning came.
In a blink of an eye, two days had passed and it was time for the flower viewing banquet.
In the inner hall of Fengluan Palace, Cuihong carefully tied Su Yuer's three thousand black hair into a Lingyue bun, and inserted a jade dragon and phoenix hairpin diagonally into the bun, making her look extremely beautiful.
She was wearing a lavender palace dress that reached the ground, and her waist was cinched with a dark purple belt, highlighting her slender figure.
Her beautiful facial features were lightly made up, her honey-colored lips had a light glow, her eyebrows were lightly drawn, her watery eyes were shining, and there was a smile between her eyebrows.
Cuihong smiled and said, "Your Majesty, everything is ready. When you go to the flower viewing banquet today, the flowers will definitely be outshined."
"You're so talkative!" Su Yu'er stood up, and Cuihong helped her out of Fengluan Palace.
South of the capital, there is a quiet and beautiful courtyard surrounded by green trees and filled with the fragrance of flowers.
A gorgeous carriage slowly drove to the gate of the villa, and Cuihong carefully helped Su Yuer get off the carriage.
She was dressed in a gorgeous lavender palace dress and had an elegant temperament.
When Su Yuer appeared at the main gate of the villa, she was slightly startled by the scene before her. "Oh my god! So many people came to a flower viewing party."
I saw a large group of people standing in front of the main gate of the villa.
The moment they saw Su Yu'er appear, everyone knelt down and kowtowed, shouting in unison: "Greetings, Imperial Concubine!"
Su Yu'er smiled slightly and said softly, "No need to be polite."
Upon hearing this, everyone stood up and shouted in unison again: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"You guys enjoy it on your own, I'll just take a look." Su Yu'er said to everyone.
"It's the Imperial Concubine," everyone responded. Then, they dispersed and began to enjoy the scenery on their own.
Su Yu'er strolled along the path of the villa, admiring the beautiful scenery around her, and walked all the way to the Hundred Flowers Garden, where hundreds of flowers were in full bloom.
Su Yuer strolled among the sea of flowers, the petals danced lightly, the fragrance of flowers was overwhelming, and the flowers swayed in the autumn breeze, making people intoxicated.
At this moment, the fragrance of chrysanthemums in the garden is strong, elegant and fragrant, more beautiful than all other flowers after they have withered, and they do not compete with other flowers. In autumn, chrysanthemums bloom even more vigorously.
Wherever she went, people would greet her one by one.
After Su Yu'er walked away, three or five noble ladies gathered together and talked privately.
"I'd heard earlier that the Imperial Concubine was frail and often sickly. I never thought she would become an Imperial Concubine right after recovering from a serious illness. And you know what, she's truly stunningly beautiful."
Another noblewoman echoed, "Yes, if she weren't favored by the harem, who could compare to her at the moment? She's truly stunningly beautiful, the most stunning of all. I'm guessing she's not far from becoming queen."
"Who knows? We can't compete. Do you remember Lu Yuxuan? She's no pushover. She's always dreaming of the queen position."
"You are talking about Concubine Li, right? She used to be Concubine Li, but now she has been demoted to Concubine Li."
"Let's stop talking now. It will be troublesome if someone hears us."
"That's right, it's none of our business."
Then they started chattering and laughing again.
At this moment, a veiled woman appeared behind the rockery. She looked around to see if there was anyone around her and whispered to the person next to her, "Is everything arranged?"
All I heard was: "Don't worry, everything is fine."
Here, Su Yu'er was leisurely enjoying the beautiful scenery of the garden alone.
"Yu'er..." Suddenly a soft voice came.
Su Yu'er turned around when she heard the voice, "Mengwen..." She said happily: "Mengwen, long time no see."
Meng Wen hurriedly bowed and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty." Then she stood up and said with a pout, "Of course it's been a long time since we last met. I haven't seen you since you entered the palace."
"Mengwen, you can come to the palace to find me." Su Yuer said.
"It's too troublesome to enter the palace, and there are so many etiquettes." Meng Wen explained helplessly.
Then, she said happily, "Yu'er... no, no, no, I'm always too casual. Your Majesty, I heard that you are pregnant. Congratulations!"
"Mengwen, when there is no one around, can you still call me Yu'er?" Su Yu'er said softly.
"Really? That's great, Yu'er." Mengwen jumped up excitedly.
Su Yuer and Meng Wen were enjoying the beautiful scenery while chatting happily.
"I'm so happy to be with Yu'er. If it were anyone else, I wouldn't bother with them."
Su Yu'er smiled and was about to respond when the eldest princess hurried to her side and said, "Your Highness, I'm sorry for the delay! I was just receiving the princess from Kunling Kingdom, so I'm late."
"It's okay! There are a lot of people here today." Su Yu'er said gently.
The eldest princess led Su Yuer and Meng Wen to the designated seats.
Meng Wen whispered, "Yu'er, I can't sit here, otherwise I'll become a thorn in your side."
Su Yu'er whispered helplessly, "Okay, Mengwen, remember to come to the palace to find me."
"Okay." Meng Wen responded and turned to leave.
Su Yu'er sat in the main seat, and the eldest princess's eyes fell on Su Yu'er.
She said happily, "Noble Concubine Yu, you are truly becoming more and more beautiful, enough to make all the flowers in my palace garden pale in comparison. Your Majesty's presence today is the perfect celebration of the flowers."
"Thank you, sister. You are too kind."
"I just love the hustle and bustle. The chrysanthemums are overflowing with fragrance, and it would be a waste if no one enjoys it with me." The eldest princess said with a smile.
At this moment, Madam Liu, who was sitting on the left, said in a gentle tone, "The flower viewing banquets hosted by the eldest princess in previous years always had excellent auspicious results. I wonder what good auspicious results will be this year?"
The princess looked at Madam Liu and said softly, "Madam Liu, it depends on who has the ability to get this good prize."
"Of course I won't participate, I'm just curious. After all, the prize offered by the eldest princess is truly amazing." Mrs. Liu responded flatteringly.
As soon as Madam Liu said this, someone at the table said, "That's right, it's a precious lucky start every year."
The princess looked at the leisurely Su Yu'er and could not help but move closer and whispered, "That person is the wife of the Prime Minister's Mansion."
When Su Yu'er heard this, she smiled leisurely and said to the princess: "Madam Liu and I have known each other for a long time and are very familiar with each other."
Madam Liu smiled falsely and said, "Your Highness, it was just a misunderstanding, just a misunderstanding..." Her voice became softer and softer as she spoke.
Su Yu'er was boredly playing with the tea lid when suddenly, an inopportune voice rang out, "I've heard that the Imperial Concubine is incredibly beautiful, as pretty as a flower. Seeing her today, it's true that no one can compare to her. I just wonder what your other skills are like?"
"Your question is quite meaningless. Just take us, who among us is not proficient in everything from music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Not to mention the Imperial Concubine, how could she not have some background? Aren't you trying to discredit the Imperial Concubine?"
"How can you talk like that? Even without thinking, you know this is impossible."
Listening to these boring discussions, Su Yuer glanced at the people who had just spoken and laughed inwardly: "Oh! Isn't this Su Yuting?"
Su Yu'er's eyes turned cold as she thought to herself, "Are you from Dunhuang? There are so many murals."
Su Yuting's attitude seems to indicate she's trying to stir up trouble. You guys want to play, right? Then let's have fun together.
"Royal sister, I heard from Madam Liu that every year, the Royal Sister has a good auspicious sign for the flower viewing banquet, and it is amazing. I also want to strive for this good sign."
Seeing this, the eldest princess said happily, "Of course, this is a great honor." As she spoke, she directly said to the maid beside her, "Go and get the prize I prepared."
"Royal sister, please don't take it yet. Since someone wants to see my skills, it's not impossible. Let's change the rules. If someone can beat me, I will give her a Dingyan Pill. Any skills you can use will be fine."
"No, it's Dingyan Dan."
"That's not an easy win. You've even staked the Dingyan Pill. Do you think it's easy to win? How naive."
"That's possible. I don't believe that the Imperial Concubine has all the skills."
Su Yu'er leaned back in her chair and said calmly, "Who will go first? Why not let the lady who just said, 'Just us' go first?"
Su Yuting glanced at Su Yuer, lowered her head and remained silent.
"Royal sister, which royal family does that young lady belong to?" Su Yu'er said sarcastically.
"Noble Concubine Yu, she is Li Qianwan, the daughter of Lord Li, the Deputy Censor of the Inspectorate. Miss Li, since the Noble Concubine has spoken, then you should come first!"
"I, Li Qianwan, am here to meet the Imperial Concubine. Since the Imperial Concubine has chosen me, I will perform my duties well." Li Qianwan said unconvinced.
The princess gestured to the maidservant beside her and handed over a guqin. Li Qianwan took a deep breath, bowed slightly, and slowly sat down. She pressed the strings with her left hand and plucked them with her right hand...
The music that caressed the layers of ripples was like a pool of clear water, cool and cool, like a breeze on the lake on a summer night... It made people feel relaxed and refreshed.
After an unknown amount of time, the piano music slowly stopped...
"Miss Li plays well. This piece of 'Flowing Water' is like the cool breeze on a summer night. It sounds beautiful." The eldest princess praised.
Everyone praised the piano music.
Li Qianwan stood up, bowed slightly, and looked at Su Yuer with a smug expression on her face.
Su Yu'er sneered and said, "Miss Li's piano skills are indeed superb. Now it's my turn to show off my skills." As she said that, she took the pipa handed to her by the maid.
She held the pipa upright, and began to play it with her slender fingers. A burst of clear sound came out, like a string of crisp pearls falling on a jade plate.
Su Yu'er smiled softly, her braids fluttering, she slowly raised her head, smiled faintly, raised her right hand slightly, turned her head slightly, and swung out her sleeves, which just covered her face, giving a feeling of her holding a pipa and half covering her face.
She played the song "Colorful Clouds Chasing the Moon". The melody was light and lively, and lingering. The emotion was so moving that it seemed to bring everyone into a dreamlike fairyland.
