Zhao Ling was really reluctant to participate in this kind of gathering where nobles, daughters of gold, princes and princesses competed with each other, but there was no other way for her.
The invitation card for the palace banquet was delivered to her in front of every eyes. If she didn't go, she would be slapping the old emperor in the face. Even if she didn't want to go to the Qixi Palace Banquet, she had to go.
Speaking of which, this was the first time that Zhao Ling, the original owner of the body, had participated in such a large-scale banquet. In the past, under the deliberate exaggeration of Cui Shi and Zhao Ruo, the eldest daughter of the duke's mansion had always been called stupid.
How could she have had the opportunity to participate in a banquet as important as the Qixi Palace Banquet?
Therefore, Madam Xu and Luzhu were obviously happier than Zhao Ling herself when Zhao Ling received the invitation to the Qixi Festival. Early in the morning of the Qixi Festival, the two of them, together with Qingluo, were busy with her dressing up.
The three agreed that this was the first time the young lady had attended a banquet in public. The young lady of the Zhao family was so beautiful and talented, so she naturally had to wear the best dress for the banquet.
The clothes she wore and the jewelry she wore had to be carefully selected. Comparing again and again, could be worthy of the identity of the young lady.
When Zhao Ling returned to the yard after seeing Old Zhao matriarch, she was taken aback by the pile of bright and golden clothes and jewelry prepared by the three of them. If these intricate clothes and jewelry were worn on her body, they would certainly overwhelm the petite and thin nature of the body of the original owner.
Looking at the expectant eyes of the three of them, she handed a green jade hairpin in her hand to Luzhu, and said helplessly, "Just find a nice dress for me as usual and replace the hairpin with this green jade hairpin."
What a joke was all this fanciful dressing? She wasn't going out to show off, let alone find a good husband, she was just attending a palace banquet. As long as she dressed in a decent manner without being rude, why bother herself?
This green jade hairpin was given by Mrs. Zhao just now. The color was warm and the style was elegant, which was very suitable for Zhao Ling's gentle temperament. The old lady's eyes were really good.
Zhao Ling was rewarded by Emperor Ming with the only death-free gold medal in the Dasheng Dynasty, which was also an extremely honorable event for the Duke's Mansion.
The old lady was delighted, so she took advantage of today's opportunity for Zhao Ling to attend the palace banquet, called her to her presence, gave her some precautionary measures, and gave her this extremely rare green jade hairpin, which was considered a treat to her. These were glorious rewards from the matriarch.
This year's Star Festival feast was arranged in the Huagai Hall in the palace.
The person in charge of organizing the banquet was Eunuch Wei Fang, the chief eunuch of Huagai Palace. For the Qixi banquet tonight, Eunuch Wei had not slept for several days because the success of this Qixi Banquet was really important to him.
Last year's Qixi Banquet was held in the Taiji Temple, and the person in charge of it was Li Yuan, who entered the palace in the same year as him. Because the banquet was very successful and very innovative, the dragon heart delighted Emperor Ming.
As soon as he was happy, he made Li Yuan an eunuch, and he was able to serve the saint of heaven from time to time. How eye-catching was that.
This year's opportunity to organize the Tanabata Banquet, fell on Wei Fang who had been begging Li Yuan for a long time, and finally got it. Maybe when the Holy One was happy, he would be able to serve the imperial emperor himself.
Thinking of this, Wei Fang immediately felt as if he had been beaten by chicken blood. He cast away the exhaustion that befell him since he had no good rest for the past few days. Lack of rest still showed in him in that, when he ordered the little eunuch and the little palace maid to clean up, he became very angry again.
However, in the collective efforts of the eunuchs and palace ladies in Huagai Hall, this year's Qixi Palace Banquet officially kicked off.
By the time Zhao Ling arrived outside the Huagai Palace, it was dark, and it was already the peak time for the guests to attend the palace banquet.
The road leading to the Huagai Hall was crowded with all kinds of exquisite and luxurious carriages, as well as men and women in bright clothes. The men were all dressed in brocade clothes, and the women were all wearing rings and dangling bells.
Seeing the traffic jam ahead, Zhao Ling had to get out of the carriage and let Luzhu, who had accompanied her all the way, wait in the carriage, while she followed behind Zhao Jiang and walked towards the Huagai Palace with the flow of people.
Luzhu was a servant girl, so she was not qualified to enter the Huagai Palace to participate in the palace banquet. And tonight, Zhao Jiang and Zhao Ling were the only people attending the palace banquet in the entire Zhao mansion.
Since Zhao Ruo came to tell her the last time that Meng Yunce was suffering from mildew, Mrs. Cui had been ill and bedridden for several days, so she couldn't come to the banquet.
Along the way, there was an endless stream of people who greeted Zhao Jiang, which instantly satisfied Zhao Jiang's self-esteem that he had not raised his eyebrows for a long time.
However, he knew in his heart that these dignitaries, who were usually above the top, would be so enthusiastic about him tonight, just to see the demeanor of the eldest daughter behind him.
