Chapter 17 The Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon, so everyone has to prepare a grand banquet to celebrate this grand festival.
The days are like floating clouds, and within a few days, the Dragon Boat Festival is here. However, on the night of the Dragon Boat Festival, Yuxi never imagined that he would meet many new faces and everything that would happen.
The Dragon Boat Festival is here, and Yu Xi and other concubines are invited to participate in the Dragon Boat Festival and have a banquet with them. The first person Yuxi saw was the queen, whose surname was also Wang.
Her face was gentle, but she looked haggard because she was constantly tired from all kinds of troubles. She is tolerant and polite, and very humble in her treatment of others.
She had nowhere to go and that was because she really had trouble getting pregnant. Sitting next to him were two imperial concubines, but at the beginning, neither of them had children.
However, the emperor did not favor the two of them at that time until the Queen Mother came forward. He said that at least one of them would be pregnant with a child, and that this would be worthy of his ancestors.
Later, one of them, Princess Qian, became pregnant with a son, who became the second prince. In fact, Imperial Concubine Lu and Imperial Concubine Qian were both daughters of very prestigious ministers in the imperial court.
They have a pure nature, but there are always some annoying looks that appear in them. The most favored one was Concubine Li Guifei next to them. She was very rich in appearance.
She gave birth to a son for the emperor, who is now the eldest prince. The reason why she is often favored by the emperor is also related to Concubine Li's enchanting character.
Not much else to say, anyway, Concubine Li has many ways to catch the emperor. Although Concubine Zhang Shu was favored, she had no heirs, so she sat near the back.
Because Concubine Yu Ling gave birth to the third prince, she sat near the front. The eldest princess was born to Concubine Han Xiang, the second princess was born to Concubine Lanlian, and the third princess was born to Concubine Jue.
These are all the famous concubines in the palace that Yuxi knows. The Dragon Boat Festival involves activities, such as making rice dumplings, racing dragon boats, making Dragon Boat Festival food, and painting pictures about the Dragon Boat Festival.
Ding bell————, the bell rings. Okay, let’s start making rice dumplings. The fillings here have been chosen by everyone a long time ago. It depends on which one of you can wrap them quickly, wrap them beautifully, wrap them deliciously, and wrap them the best in all aspects.
The best one was Concubine Yu Jue, the second best was Qiao Cui, and the third best was Yu Xi. Puff-puff, the bell rang.
OK, let’s start the dragon boat race. The emperor had ordered people to make this dragon boat in the palace a long time ago, and it would be used during the Dragon Boat Festival.
Everyone draws lots, and the chosen group will row dragon boats with the same group. The emperor and Yuxi were drawn into a group. Because the emperor knew that Yuxi was not that simple, he said to her: "When are you going to teach me how to make zongzi?" When Yuxi heard this, he immediately said, "Okay, I'll do it as soon as I have time." I’ll teach you how to make rice dumplings.” As a result, after rowing, the emperor and Yu Xi won as a team.
Food for the Dragon Boat Festival refers to other foods for the Dragon Boat Festival. Dang------, the bell rang.
OK, let’s start the game. First, the food must be finished during these hours. Second, it must be done to the satisfaction of the prosecutor.
Then, satisfy the judge. As a result, Yuxi won third place. The first place was Queen Wang, and the second place was Concubine Li.
Miso————, the bell rang. Everyone picked up their brushes and started drawing. Some people think for a while before drawing.
Just like Yuxi, Yuxi painted a story about the Dragon Boat Festival. Yuxi drew a child looking for his family during the Dragon Boat Festival and also wrote a poem.
As a result, Yuxi unexpectedly won first place. The second place winner was Emperor Feilai, and the third place winner was Third Prince Feiqian.
