Chapter 296 The beginning of the night banquet

15days ago Historical fiction 5
Yun Shang woke up and saw that he was still lying on the strange bed. He was shocked. He touched his body again, but he was still in a mess.

She cleaned her hair and sat up. She remembered that she was inexplicably plotted against her. She couldn't confirm who was doing it for a while. She also thought of Qian Yuzhu's report. She felt angry, but she had to grit her teeth and endure it for a while. Her soft face became distorted.

She knew that Han Jinqing would definitely follow His Majesty to the villa today. She planned to find an opportunity to meet him. She didn't expect to be disturbed by this matter. She missed the opportunity in vain, both annoyed and depressed.

She stumbled away from the courtyard and looked around. Then she was surprised to find that she was in the courtyard group of the head of the department. She hurriedly turned around and saw a word Wei shining under the moon. She was next to the courtyard gate.

Wei Lengyao? This name popped up in her mind and her heart couldn't help but tremble. Who would want to make her get involved with Wei Lengyao?

Thinking of those blue eyes, her whole body was like a falling from an ice cellar

If Wei Lengyao comes back now or runs into someone here, she will be unable to argue.

Thinking of this, she walked away for a while and suddenly saw a slim figure in front of her, coming out of another courtyard...

She hid sideways into the depression of the courtyard wall, hid her figure, stared at the back for a moment, and suddenly reacted, Gu Qingyin!

Looking at the courtyard again, I was inexplicably familiar with it. It was the residence of Han Jinqing in the villa that she had brought her with me during the day.

Yun Shang's eyes were almost on fire, and she wanted to stare into a hole in her back

Gu Qingyin came out of Han Jinqing's courtyard alone in the middle of the night. No one could avoid a beautiful guess. Besides, Yun Shang had known the involvement between her and Han Jinqing for a long time, and she was jealous in her heart, so she turned the humiliation and resentment she suffered today into a turbulent anger towards Gu Qingyin.

The next day, the last day's performance exam was different from before. The chiefs of various departments conducted free examinations on the spot, while the female officials answered on the spot.

After entering the venue, each female official will face the examination questions of three examiners. Each examiner will give one question. Each female official’s answer will be completed, and the three examiners will give the results together.

It was already noon after Gu Qingyin's turn. She entered the examination room. Seeing that Han Jinqing was actually among the examiners in this round, she was very surprised. She also caught a glimpse of His Majesty the Emperor and Concubine Pang sitting in the main seat, and she couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

Her experience as an official and ability to respond on the spot are enough for her to deal with such occasions, as long as Han Jinqing does not make any decisions.

She glanced at Han Jinqing quickly. He was looking down at the rice paper on the desk. He was handsome and handsome, with a distinctive temperament, just like the prince who responded to the court.

After the answer was finished, Gu Qingyin breathed a sigh of relief. Han Jinqing did not make things difficult for her. It was just some expected test questions. She answered them with ease.

The three-day exam was finally completed, and the third day ended very quickly. No matter how well the exam was, the female officials were relieved. Some people had already started preparing for the evening banquet to entertain the dance. Gu Qingyin was also told by a female official to perform the piano that night, which caught her off guard.

The night banquet that night was held at Guanghan Building on the side of Ziyun Mountain. It is the tallest building in Zilan Villa. It has flying eaves and corners, gilded corridor columns, white jade steps. It is close to a waterfall. The water flows into a green deep pool, with jade trees planted around it. The fragrance of flowers is pleasant, and it is an extremely elegant place.

The emperor and Concubine Pang, together with Han Jinqing and a number of officials from the ministry, would all attend tonight's banquet. The officials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs who accompanied him started to get busy early in the morning.

The seats of officials are arranged according to the official ranks, and the female officials gathered in the back rows, near the gate.

The hall on the first floor of Guanghan Building is very spacious, as high as two floors, with red paint on the railings and gold and jade embellishment, extremely luxurious.

After the banquet began, a group of officials toasted the emperor and Concubine Pang. After that, many officials chatted with Han Jinqing and toasted each other. After a few drinks, the atmosphere gradually became lively. At this time, the sound of the 7-strings of Lingling sounded, and five female officials who had changed into light green long skirts walked out from behind the screen. Each of them shook a pipa, with a clear and beautiful voice, and they started to sing slowly.
