MTL - I Was Called a Poor Widow, But I Relied on My Supernatural Powers To Fight Back In Ancient Times-Chapter 954 Palace banquet
On the twenty-third of the twelfth lunar month, there was a palace banquet.
Officials of fifth rank and above and their family members are required to attend the banquet in the palace to show the emperor's great favor.
But because Zhang Yishan was pregnant and the winter was not conducive to travel, Baiyunxi prepared to take Yaya to the banquet, while the rest stayed at home.
Although places like the palace look magnificent, there are hidden dangers and there are endless intrigues. It would be better to go there and risk a half-cold meal than to stay at home, guarding the charcoal pot, and have a warm meal in comfort.
But having said that, the ladies of Kyoto are all proud to enter the palace and attend banquets. Even if they are hungry, they cannot stop them from coming.
Some people are exploring, and some are whispering, but none of this affects Baiyun Creek.

Mrs. Tang looked at Baiyunxi's ancestors and grandchildren without leaving any trace, and replied gently.
Baiyunxi chuckled lightly and exchanged greetings.
Bai Yunxi wore several thick layers, a red dress, a quilted jacket, and finally a rabbit fur cloak.
“Grandma is also pretty.”
Fortunately, everyone knew what the occasion was, but no one dared to judge it casually.
Baiyunxi gently stroked the silk flower on her bun, and the silver stamens swayed, showing a spirit of elf.
After a while, the Tang family followed, and the two girls gathered together and muttered again.
While the few people were talking, they followed the flow of people towards the palace gate. Gongren checked the right cards and let the person in.
"Today's palace banquet, all the ministers don't need to be restrained. After a year of hard work, you should have a few drinks."
“It’s getting late, let’s set off.” The night banquet in the palace was held at the You hour, and it ended in the middle of the Xu hour.
Yaya wears a pink and purple dress, a rabbit skin jacket on her upper body, and embroidered cotton-padded boots on her feet, which reach directly to the height of her calf. Wearing a pink cloak that matches her figure, white fluffy rabbit fur surrounds her neck, and her cheeks are white and pink, delicate and charming.
They, the Bai family, are not very familiar with the noble ladies in Kyoto, and they only exchange polite greetings.
Looking at Du Shi nervously rubbing his hands, Bai Yunxi couldn't help but shake his head.
Looking at the young emperor and queen, Bai Yunxi felt as if he were watching a play.
Du Shi’s eyes shone with excitement, and she didn’t know where to put her hands.
"Princess, you are polite." Bai Yunxi chuckled and greeted politely.
“Thanks to the princess for inviting me to attend her poetry recital. When I came back, I couldn’t forget Miss Tang.”
With a thin layer of powder on her face and light makeup, she looks like a graceful and noble person no matter how she looks.
“Mom, Yaya is going to the banquet with you, what should I prepare for her?”
The two families looked very helpless.
The carriage stopped in the square at the gate of the palace.
Baiyunxi brought Yaya down and saw many carriages parked in the square. Women from various families took their daughters to the palace gate, lined up to check their identities, and entered the palace one by one.
Fifteen minutes before the banquet started, Bai Yunxi saw Xiao Wu walking in. Their eyes met in the air, and Yaya waved to him.
While he was talking, a little girl wearing a light blue cloak ran up to Yaya and looked at her in surprise.
“Yaya, if it hadn’t snowed too much a while ago and my mother wouldn’t let me go out, I would have come to your house to play with you.”
“Don’t be nervous, just dress more delicately than usual.”
Bai Yunxi looked at the two people's intimacy and trembled at the corners of her mouth. It seems that these two girls have only met once, right?
Before she could speak, an old lady came up from behind, being supported by a girl.
"This girl ran this way as soon as she got out of the car. It turns out she met an acquaintance." Tang Jia, Censor Doctor, Cong Yipin.
Two hundred five. Two hundred and thirty four. One hundred and forty six. Seventy-one
YaYa has grown very fast in the past two years and is already as tall as her. Her big eyes are shining, which makes her very attractive.
“My eldest granddaughter is really pretty.”
They were led by the young **** all the way to Zichen Palace, which is also the palace where officials entertain guests.
Just come here to have a meeting, have a meal, and just go through the motions.
“Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness.”
Now her daughter is going to the banquet. What an honor it is.
With the eunuch's loud congratulations, the officials and the queen appeared at the entrance of the hall.
After that, the official gave a speech. The main purpose was to thank all the ministers for their efforts during the year. As the new year was approaching, they gathered together to let everyone eat and drink well, so that they could continue to serve the court in the coming year.
The bun is pulled up on the back of the head, raised a little with a wig, fixed with two white jade hairpins, and a gold hairpin is inserted on the other side.
They went to the palace to eat, it was not a sacrificial festival, so they just had to dress neatly. Although comparisons are not recommended, this kind of thing is simply inevitable among ladies.
“Mrs. Tang is polite,”
The palace, the place where noble ladies live, she never dared to dream of.
As everyone stood up and shouted long live, the young emperor spread his arms and gently let all the ministers level up.
"Bai Shuren, Miss Bai, I looked at the statue from a distance, and sure enough I didn't miss it." Princess Hehui came over with the girl and said hello with a smile.
"You're welcome, Bai Shu. It's rare that these two girls are destined to be together."
The crowd sent the grandfather and grandson to the gate and watched them get into the carriage and set off before going back.
“Miss Bai, it’s really you.”
Xiao Wu is accompanying them today. In the afternoon, Shi Shi will be sent over to tell them to let them enter the palace on time. Xiao Wu is waiting for them at the palace.
Hearing Baiyunxi's decision, Mrs. Du was startled. She was nervous and excited at the same time. She immediately wanted to prepare clothes and headwear for her daughter. She must not neglect the palace banquet.
Sit according to rank, with the younger members of the family sitting behind you. If the official’s wife has a whim and asks someone to stand up and talk, there will be no mistake.
Seeing his mother and Yaya sitting there, Xiao Wu felt relieved and walked to his seat to sit down. When the official next to him saw his appearance, he immediately came over to say hello.
Zi Chen Hall is divided into two parts, separated by a gauze curtain in the middle, and the male guests' seats are on the outside.
Yaya’s eyes lit up when she saw Tang Yuan appearing in front of her eyes.
“Me too. Grandma, this is my new friend, Miss Tang.”
It's okay if you don't dress well. After all, it's a royal banquet. If you are too shabby, you will be laughed at. If not, you will be impeached, saying that you despise the imperial power.
As soon as Bai Yunxi sat down, he received visiting glances from around him. The Bai family had just arrived and suddenly popped up, making many people curious.
Baiyunxi was slightly blessed, and Xiaowu made a network of contacts in Kyoto. She also checked through it and knew that this person had a certain destiny.
At the end of the speech, the sound of silk and bamboo sounded, and a group of dancers poured in from the entrance of the hall, swaying and dancing to the vocal music.
Looking at the figure of the dancer, Bai Yunxi couldn't help but sigh. She is indeed a royal singer. She is of high standard. Look at the willow waist and the hibiscus noodles. They are really eye-catching.
Especially Yaya, it was the first time I saw this, I opened my eyes wide and appreciated it very seriously.
