Chapter 191: Dream Crossing (3)
Su Xiaobei looked at the room full of people and knew that they had bad intentions, and he watched coldly and didn't say a word.
Madame gave the eldest lady a look and motioned for her to settle down. Although the eldest lady was not convinced, she still obeyed her mother's words and restrained her temper.
Lord Taiwei announced in public: "In two days, it will be the emperor's 60th birthday, and according to the custom, Cai'er and Lian'er will enter the palace together to celebrate his birthday this year." The birthday gift for the emperor must be prepared in a novel and special way, and use more thought!"
"Yes, father. The eldest lady and the eldest prince nodded.
"Bei'er, you are also ready, this time you will enter the palace to celebrate your birthday, and you will go together. Lord Taiwei said to Su Xiaobei.
"Yes, father. Su Xiaobei snickered, knowing in his heart that this was for King Jun's sake. Sigh, even in a dream power is a prestige thing.
Looking at the stunned expressions of the eldest lady and the eldest prince, Su Xiaobei quickly got the psychological activities of these two people-
How can you let the cheap hooves enter the palace? Isn't King Jun really interested in her?
Su Xiaobei couldn't help but deliberately show a mysterious smile in front of the two of them to show that he was really favored in front of King Jun, and the relationship was extraordinary.
This performance made the eldest lady even more frightened, and her face was blue and white for a while. Knowing that a daughter is like a mother, Mrs. Taiwei called the eldest lady into the room.
"Lian'er, don't be stubborn anymore. What's so good about that Junwang, no matter how big his official is, he can't be as big as the prince. You must know that in the future, the second prince is the only candidate for the crown prince, and he will inherit the throne, and you will marry the second prince to honor the world. ”
Her mother had said these things to her more than once, and even her aunt Lan Guifei had expressed her intention to make her the second princess.
But she doesn't like the second prince, and the person she really likes in her heart is Prince Jun. No mother can compare with the world, and I wish to have a heart.
Mrs. Taiwei looked at Lian'er, who was a little dazed, and sighed: "My mother is a person who has come over, and all kinds of love and love are empty, and you will understand in the future." ”
Immediately, his eyebrows were twisted, his deep eyes were full of cold light, and he gritted his teeth and said: "As for this little cheap hoof Su Xiaobei, my mother promised you that she would never let her get close to King Jun." ”
The eldest lady tightened the handkerchief in her hand, and handed out viciousness from between her teeth: "...... Su Xiaobei!"
"Ah sneeze~"
At this time, Su Xiaobei rubbed his nose with his sleeves and continued the work in his hands.
"Miss, the birthday gifts that others prepare for the emperor are all carefully selected, why did you come here and knead the dough? Besides, isn't this the work that should be done in the kitchen?"
The personal maid really didn't withdraw from her own lady, and she finally had a chance to enter the palace, why didn't she know how to grasp it?
Su Xiaobei's pretty face raised, and he said confidently: "What do you know? What kind of rare treasures have the emperor never seen." The congratulatory gift to the emperor is not precious, but creative. ”
"Creativity?" The maid was a little confused, but one thing was sure that her young lady's birthday gift was not welcomed, and she was an inferior maid who could only be in a hurry, sighing again and again.
Alas, I really don't know where Miss's self-confidence comes from?
Inside the Royal Palace. In Lan Guifei's Zhilan Palace, Mrs. Taiwei was taking Su Xiaobei, Su Ruicai, and Su Yilian to greet Lan Guifei. Because Su Ruicai was a male dependent, he didn't like to talk about his daughter's family, so he went to find the second prince after inviting An.
Mrs. Taiwei is very disgusted with Su Xiaobei, and in such a noble place, how can this concubine stay. sent Su Xiaobei to the imperial garden and asked him to wait for them.
Lan Guifei and Mrs. Taiwei are both young gold of the prime minister of the dynasty, Lan Guifei is a concubine, she is noble, her appearance is temperamental, intellectual and gentle, and she is deeply loved by the emperor.
As a concubine, Mrs. Taiwei is not as lucky as her sister to enter the palace as a concubine, although marrying Lord Taiwei is to be the main room, but in her heart she is still jealous of her sister Lan Guifei's identity, so she always hopes that Su Yilian can marry the second prince and be a mother in the world.
"Auntie, this is a purse embroidered by Lian'er herself, and I made a special trip to give it to your aunt!"
"No big or small, you have to be honored as a concubine. Mrs. Taiwei reprimanded her precious daughter.
"No one is here, and it's okay to call your aunt. Concubine Lan patted Su Yilian lightly, with a loving expression, "Auntie likes to love Lian'er the most, can I stay in the palace to accompany my aunt in the future?"
"Good, good, naturally a hundred good, this is our Lian'er's blessing. Mrs. Taiwei smiled, waiting for this day.
Su Xiaobei was a little careless, these were not the things in her heart, at the moment she was thinking more, did the maid outside arrange things properly?
Outside the Zhilan Palace, the two maidservants were sneakily muttering to the depths of the courtyard, only to see that they seemed to be holding a gorgeous dance dress in their hands.
The leading maid whispered: "This birthday banquet must make the third lady look good." ”
"Yes, what the master tells must be done......"
The voices of the two faded away, and their figures disappeared into the courtyard. After a while, a young girl walked out of the shade of a nearby tree. The conversation between the two maids just now was all in the girl's ears. Judging from the clothes of the two maidservants, they were the attendants of the Taiwei.
The maid next to the girl spoke: "County Lord, it seems that this Taiwei Bow Third Miss is going to play some tricks at the emperor's birthday banquet, she must want to enter the palace, or be favored by which prince or prince?"
The maid's face was furious, in the past, the county lord of her family was the most disgusted woman who relied on scheming or appearance to go to the top, and after a long time, she would be bored when she saw such a woman.
The girl who was called the county lord spoke: "I really hate such a woman the most, I have long heard that Miss Taiwei Zhuan San was involved in an unjust case, and it was King Jun who came forward to try the case, so that the third miss was innocent." Unexpectedly, this third lady was still pressing step by step, and she hit the idea to the emperor's uncle's birthday banquet. ”
If you don't give some color today for Su Xiaobei to see, she won't be the county lord Yi Yiyue!
Yi Yiyue used her palm to hold it to the maid's ear, whispered a few words, and the maid nodded frequently. After Yi Yiyue finished giving the order, the maid went straight to the direction of the two maids just now.
The two maidservants in the imperial garden found Su Xiaobei, and Su Xiaobei recognized them as Su Yilian's personal maids. When Taiwei bowed down, these two maids didn't have any respect for Su Xiaobei, and in their eyes, the master was only Su Yilian, the eldest lady.
"Third Miss, please come with us to try on the dance skirt, Madame instructed the third lady to dance to congratulate the emperor later. The maidservant urged impatiently.
Su Xiaobei didn't refute, and obediently followed, you must know that Su Xiaobei's dancing skills are not bad.
However, it is a little strange for Mrs. Taiwei to prepare a dance dress for her, watching her make a fool of herself at the birthday banquet is the scene that Taiwei's mother and daughter want to see, right?
The three of them came to a side hall with two dance costumes on the shelves. The maidservant pointed with her hand, "This one is yours, don't change it later." ”
Su Xiaobei stretched out his hand and wanted to unfold it to look at the dance skirt, but was stopped by the servant girl who was quick with his hands and feet: "I can't change the dance skirt in time, don't you know if it's unlucky?"
Looking at the maid's panicked and dodging eyes, Su Xiaobei was even more sure that the dance skirt had done something. She just responded lightly: "If you don't touch it, you won't touch it, Miss Ben is not rare." ”
The maid was half angry, but after all, Su Xiaobei's identity was still the third lady, and the maid didn't dare to be too presumptuous, so she could only endure it.
After they all left the side hall, Yi Yiyue's personal maid sneaked in, and the name tag was written on the dance skirt, indicating whose it was. The maid quietly exchanged Su Xiaobei and Su Yilian's dance skirts, and slandered, now see how you hurt people?
The emperor's birthday banquet began, there was no queen in the palace in the dream, and Concubine Lan had the highest position, sitting next to the emperor's left.
On the right sat Concubine Qian, although Concubine Qian was not a noble concubine, she was also quite favored by the emperor among the concubines. Concubine Qian is the mother concubine of the three princes, and the emperor has a preference for the three princes, which can be regarded as a son with a mother, and is even more loved by the emperor.
The following is the seat in order of position, the eldest princess Yan Xinyi, the emperor's sister-in-law. is also Yi Yiyue's mother. Then there is King Jun, several princes and princesses, princes and princesses, etc.
It's just that the faces of these people in the dream are very blurry, and they can't see clearly. Only King Jun can see clearly, it is a strange and handsome man he has never seen.
On the other side is the Prime Minister, Lan Guifei is the daughter of the Prime Minister, and the Prime Minister is also a national ruler, and her status should not be underestimated. followed by some important ministers in the court, Su Xiaobei was the last, she had no official title, not even a concubine. It's good to be able to give her a place at the birthday party.
The procedure of the birthday banquet is really boring, and after the song and dance performance, it is the part where they send congratulatory gifts, and of course this is the most important part of the day.
Su Xiaobei noticed that the gaze swept around her surrounded her, and everyone seemed to be curious about what she would give to the emperor, or what kind of gift did she have to offer?
Mrs. Taiwei summoned her personal maid and whispered, "Take the third lady to change her clothes quickly, and let her dance in a while." ”
Who knew that the maid was a little embarrassed: "Madam, the third lady told the slave maid that she did not plan to dance, and she had other arrangements for congratulatory gifts." ”
Mrs. Taiwei furrowed her eyebrows and said unhappily: "Why did you report now?"
The third lady just told the slave. The maid also hated Su Xiaobei for notifying her at this juncture, causing her to be reprimanded by her wife.
Mrs. Taiwei didn't know what Su Xiaobei was selling, and now she could only wait and see what happened. To be honest, for Su Xiaobei's congratulatory gift, she really looks forward to thinking about it and seeing what kind of congratulatory gift this little hoof can come up with?
Su Xiaobei got up and paid respectful respects to the emperor: "Your Majesty, my birthday gift is freshly made, and it is still on the steaming drawer in the imperial dining room, please allow me to serve it?"
Everyone was stunned, what kind of congratulatory gift is this, could it be that the cook of the palace is not as good as a little yellow-haired girl?
"Presumptuous, dare to be so rampant in front of the emperor, do you look down on the imperial chef of the palace?
"Your Majesty, although Su Xiaobei is young and entering the palace for the first time, as the daughter of the Taiwei, it is impossible not to understand these rules, how can the congratulatory gifts prepared for the emperor be casual?"
