Chapter 268: Step Right Foot First
The banquet continued amidst the praises and praises.
But after the Emperor’s impassioned speech, the atmosphere at the scene has changed.
Although there was such a big deal tonight, none of the civil and military officials present discussed it, and even said a few words to avoid suspicion.
Only the envoys from foreign countries were discussing in low voices what was going on tonight. They did not have as many scruples as the courtiers.
Above the Dan Majesty, the Supreme Emperor Zhu Xinkan has returned to the dragon throne, and Zhu Xianming is waiting as close as before.
On the other side, the queen also held a banquet in Chonghua Palace to receive high-ranking wives of third or higher rank in Beijing.
As the Duke's wife, Jia's mother was also invited, but she was far away from the queen, only within three feet of her during the routine toast.
At this moment, she felt pain in her heart. She was far away in the corner of the courtyard, staring intently at Baochai, who was serving closely on the imperial steps.
"Your Majesty, the princess's attendant is missing one, so I'm afraid it's not appropriate to leave it empty all the time."
Yang Qingyin has heard this many times in the past two days, entering the palace. The high-ranking wives who came to see her all wanted to bring their daughters into the palace.
The person who said this again in front of me was Mrs. Gao, the Marquis of Baoling, who was most concerned about this. She had been working hard from the beginning when she was choosing an attendant.
On the phoenix throne, Yang Qingyin looked at the two people standing in front of her and asked with a smile, "As far as I know, the oldest girl among your descendants is only ten years old. Erba”
“I’d like to express my gratitude to you, my wife, although the girl in my wife’s family is only twelve years old, she has already read poetry and books, knows etiquette and etiquette, so I sent her to the palace to be a playmate for Her Royal Highness the Princess. It’s really It couldn't be more appropriate."
These words were very straightforward, but they were said by Lu, the wife of Shi Ding, the Marquis of Zhongjing, and the two families risked their lives for Xiangyun to enter the palace.
Immediately afterwards, Mrs. Gao said, "Mother, what Mrs. Zhongjinghou said is true, that girl from Xiangyun"
Seeing that the two sisters-in-law cooperated tacitly, Yang Qingyin raised her eyebrows. He signaled them to be quiet with his hand, and then said, "No matter how hard-hearted you are, bring it in someday and let me have a look."
Although the queen did not agree directly, with such progress today, Shi Jia The two of them were also satisfied.
In their opinion, as long as Xiangyun is shown in front of the queen and leaves a good impression, there may not be other opportunities in the future.
To be honest, the two aunts really worked hard for this miserable niece.
After the two people stepped down from the royal steps, Chen Zhi, who had a seat above Dan Majesty, finally couldn't help but said, "Speaking of this attendant, my daughter-in-law's cousin is also suitable, or maybe she will also bring her with me." Come and show it to you again."
"I know your cousin, but she is really dull, so let's forget it"
"Yes"
Accept this After saying this, Chen Zhi looked up and saw Yuan Chun looking at him with a smile, and his heart suddenly became angry.
But in this situation, Chen Zhi did not dare to show off her anger, but just looked at herThe strictness welcomes Yuanchun.
Unexpectedly, Yuanchun no longer looked at her, but picked up the wine glass and said to Princess Guangyang beside him, "Let's have a drink."
Yuanchun came on behalf of the East Palace, and this glass The amount of wine was very heavy, how could Princess Guangyang dare to refuse it.
Not wanting to pay attention to the fuss of her daughter-in-law, Yang Qingyin turned to look at her niece and asked, "Girl Ting, your majesty and I will check our homework in a few days. You and girl Bao should pay more attention."
"Yes"
Hearing this, Zhu Yunsheng, who was playing with the golden melon seeds, felt his heart tighten, and then he felt that the thing in his hand no longer smelled good.
As time passed, the banquet in the former harem finally came to an end, and the courtiers and wives gradually left after paying homage.
Yang Qingyin has always been in poor health. After the banquet, she returned to the palace, and all the concubines in the harem also left.
Yuanchun Chen Zhi and other royal wives, surrounded by a group of high-ranking wives, slowly walked out of the palace gate.
When the queen returned to the palace and took off her court robe, there was an announcement from outside that the emperor had arrived.
After a few breaths, the emperor entered the palace with a serious expression, and at the same time ordered the serving eunuchs and maids to go out.
"Tell me what the situation is like." Yang Qingyin sat on the soft couch and picked up the hand stove.
Sitting opposite the queen, Zhu Xianming said calmly, "The old man said what I wanted."
Nodding, Yang Qingyin replied, "This is a good thing. You father and son have reconciled. You should sleep more peacefully from now on."
Lifting the teapot on the table, Zhu Xianming filled a cup for the queen, and then began to mix tea for himself.
"Tell me what the old man's plan is. Is it true that people have changed their minds when they grow old, just to leave a way for those people to escape?"
"You still have doubts"< /p>
After taking a sip of hot tea, Zhu Xianming looked solemnly, "I don't believe anyone but you."
"Thank you very much, but how do you know, I never lied to you?" Yang Qingyin asked with a smile.
Putting down the teacup, Zhu Xianming stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Then how do you know? You must have deceived me."
In this old couple's short love, At this time, I heard a noise coming from outside.
"Thirteenth Master, Your Majesty is here, please don't trespass"
"Ah, forget it, I'm leaving"
Hearing the sound outside, Zhu Xianming muttered, "It's so late, why is this guy here?"
"Maybe there is something wrong?" Yang Qingyin said calmly.
So Zhu Xianming shouted outside, "Let Old Thirteen come in"
Zhu Jinghong, who originally wanted to leave, was invited back by the eunuchs before he could get out of Kunning Gate.
"Dad, why are you here?" Zhu Jinghong asked first after entering the door.
He thought that the emperor would stay in Ningshou Palace for a long time. After all, the filial piety between father and son was so lively just now, but he didn't know that the two of them left immediately after the performance.
Looking at the queen, Zhu Xianming couldn’t help but smile and said, “I haven’t asked you if you’ve seen her.He asked first."
"Thirteen, what's the matter with you coming here so late?"
Looking at the emperor, Zhu Jinghong looked embarrassed, "I'm afraid it's not convenient for my son to tell you."
His look made Zhu Xianming very angry. Did this kid think he was in the way?
"Old Thirteen, you came in with your left foot first today, right?" Right."
Zhu Jinghong immediately became alert and immediately replied, "No, my right foot is the first to step forward."
Only Zhu Xianming said calmly, "That's right, I said today that I will step forward." You have to step your left foot first to gain peace of mind. How dare you resist the order and go down to receive the twenty-ten-ting staff?"
Zhu Jinghong was a little stunned for a moment when something like the one in the online jokes actually happened to him.
But he was not stupid, so he glanced at the queen and said, "Mom, I don't have enough education, so it's really unlucky to step with my left foot."
At this moment, Yang Qingyin couldn't help laughing. , glanced at the emperor opposite, and then said, "Don't listen to your father's nonsense, he is scaring you. Tell me, why are you here?"
After being relieved by the queen, Zhu Jinghong no longer dared to glance around. , and said honestly, "In two days, my son will leave the palace to go to the Hou family." "What will the Hou family do?" Yang Qingyin asked with concern.
At the home of the Duke of Xiuguo, the school review in Linyuan made my father very satisfied. He rewarded everyone generously. They said that it was thanks to his son's supervision that they were able to achieve this feat, so they had to hold a banquet to thank his son."
"My son can't shirk it. , so I can only agree to it first and come here tonight to ask my mother for an idea."
"The Hou family," Yang Qingyin said thoughtfully, and then looked at Zhu Xianming.
"They I'm holding a banquet to ask you not to go out and mess around again." Zhu Xianming's tone was stern.
Zhu Jinghong quickly replied, "Father and son dare not mess around, so don't worry."
At this time, the queen followed and smoothed things over: "Hou My home is not far from the imperial city, and his family is also cautious and considerate, so let him go."
