Taking the fur handed by Xiao Cheng, Xiao Lingtian personally covered the queen mother's lap with his own hands, and then asked, "Queen Mother, do you feel cold?"

"It's not cold, it's warm. The Queen Mother retracted her gaze that fell on the two brothers Xiao Yichen and Xiao Muxing not far away, touched the fur on her legs and smiled: "Every time I see the two brothers together, not to mention that the body is not cold, even the heart is very warm." ”

Looking back at the two who were laughing, Xiao Lingtian also showed a little smile on his face, but when he turned back, he deliberately showed a dissatisfied expression, sighed and pretended to say: "The queen mother is happy to see it, but her son is not happy." Look at Qinglong'er's bastard boy, he greets everyone with a smile, but when he sees his son, he can be angry with half his life in three sentences. Hey, could it be that this bastard boy in his previous life was a slave who was beaten all day long in his son's house, and he came to collect debts in this life?"

"What nonsense. Although the queen mother had a smile in her eyes, she said with disgust: "If you can have a son like Mu Xing and your good grandson, you can steal the fun." Haha......"

"Queen Mother, you spoil that bastard boy, and you don't even want a son. No, tomorrow my son will let him get out of the town and go to the southern Xinjiang to guard the governor's mansion, the province is here to be an eyesore. Xiao Lingtian pretended to be angry.

"You dare!" the Empress Dowager glared at her, and reached out to poke Xiao Lingtian's head, "If you dare to get the good grandson of the mourning family to go to the south and west of Xinjiang, the mourning family will break your legs." ”

"The son doesn't dare, the son doesn't dare. Xiao Lingtian hurriedly gave up his hand to curry favor, which made the old man feel good.

As if thinking of something, the queen mother's eyes scanned back and forth on the nearby seats, and finally froze on Yu Xiaoxiang, who was kneeling on the side of the first seat on Xiao Yichen's left, and found that the little girl was looking around boredly, so she lowered her voice and said, "Emperor, but that girl?"

Following the Queen Mother's gaze, Xiao Lingtian nodded and said softly, "It's that girl." In terms of appearance alone, I'm afraid that Allure and Chu Chu will be able to compete on a par. ”

"I look beautiful and smart, so I don't know what my character is. The Empress Dowager nodded slightly, "He wants to find an opportunity to let her enter the palace to have a look." ”

"The queen mother has to wait, that girl has not yet learned the etiquette in the palace, if something happens, I am afraid that Qinglong'er will jump out to protect her shortcomings again, but it will make the queen mother embarrassed. Xiao Lingtian tactfully persuaded.

"Just to see, not to ask her to do anything. If you don't understand etiquette, you can learn it slowly, and you can know how to look at your character. The good grandson of the mourning family is not worthy of any woman. The Empress Dowager glared at Xiao Lingtian dissatisfied.

"Yes, yes, the queen mother is in charge. Xiao Lingtian hurriedly retreated, but he was thinking in his heart: "Qinglong'er, Lao Tzu has covered for you, the queen mother's firepower is too strong, you can't blame me, ask for more blessings." ”

Fortunately, Xiao Yichen still doesn't know anything, if he knew that his father sold him first, and now he is lightly abandoned, I am afraid that he will immediately jump up and eat his own bastard.

After a while, he found that the little phoenix who was chasing his brothers everywhere to play the game of bouncing was also out of breath and took back the phoenix colored feathers, and returned to his seat to drink tea, Xiao Lingtian glanced at the chief manager beside him.

In his heart, the chief steward stepped forward and shouted: "Your Majesty has a decree, all the princes and princesses are back at the table." ”

As soon as he heard this, Xiao Yichen looked back at Xiao Lingtian and found that he was waving at him, so he said to Xiao Muxing and Nangong Chuchu: "The old guy wants to give him a lecture, give him some face first." After finishing the affairs in the palace these few times, I went to the East Palace to talk to my eldest brother and Chu Chu. ”

"Come whenever you want, good wine and good food are ready for you. Xiao Muxing smiled and waved his hand, watching Xiao Yichen stride towards his seat.

After a while, everyone was seated, even Yu Xiaoxiang knelt behind Xiao Yichen's side, pouring wine for him at any time, and Xing'er Yue'er and the others also knelt behind him.

At this moment, the Imperial Holy Monarch Xiao Lingtian and the Empress Dowager were seated in the center. On the two of them are the Imperial Concubine and the Imperial Concubine Hui. The two imperial concubines, the former looks charming and moving, and the latter is dignified and dignified, obviously belonging to two kinds of people. If you only look at your appearance, it will be the best years of a woman, which is enough to captivate the country and the city. And beside them, it was the other concubines and concubines who were seated. As for the concubines with smaller positions, they can also join in the fun in the far corner.

The seats of the princes and princesses are arranged in two rows, just on either side of the center, enclosing the venue in a concave shape. The crown prince sat diagonally near Xiao Lingtian and was not among the princes. The first place on the left is Xiao Yichen, and the seat opposite him is still empty at the moment, thinking that it is the seat of the eldest princess. Then they were sorted by age, one on the left and one on the right.

Including Yu Xiaoxiang, the close female officials brought by each of them had already filled the wine bottles in front of everyone. The Holy Monarch, the Queen Mother, the Crown Prince, the Crown Princess, Xiao Yichen and the vacant seats are all three-legged purple gold bottles, and the rest of the princes and harem concubines above the concubine position all use gold bottles. For the rest, you can use silver bottles. It can be seen that even in the family banquet, there is still a strict hierarchy.

When the crown prince Xiao Muxing and Nangong Chuchu picked up the wine glass and left the table, Xiao Yichen and the others all stood up with their glasses.

"Erchen congratulates the ancestors for a long life, and wishes the father and the emperor peace and happiness. ”

In the same voice, everyone reached the ground with their knees, respectfully holding their cups and bowing their heads.

"All right, get up. Today's family banquet, the emperors don't need to be polite. Come, and drink with the Father. ”

"Father Xie, drink it full. ”

In response, everyone drank all the wine in Jue, and then they got up and sat back.

"Woo~~ It's fruit juice again, I'm also a man, why can't I drink like the third brother?" Suddenly, Xiao Zhengtai, who was at the back, complained to the female officer next to him.

Concubine Qi, who had just stood up on the front seat, changed her expression, turned her head and frowned and said, "Lian'er, Your Majesty and the old ancestor are here, how can you look at the loud noise for no reason." ”

After finishing speaking, Concubine Qi hurriedly knelt down to Xiao Lingtian and said softly: "Your Majesty, Lian'er is young and doesn't know etiquette, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive me." ”

"Hehe, Your Majesty, this is ten years old, and he still doesn't know etiquette. I don't know how it was taught?" charmingly approached Xiao Lingtian's side, and Emperor Hui's concubine Yu Wenqi seemed to have no intention of saying anything when she was drinking.

The prince on the side glanced at Concubine Qi who was lying on the ground, and saw that Xiao Lingtian had not yet spoken, so he arched his hand and said warmly: "Father, today is a family banquet, and there are not so many rules. Xiao Jiu is young, and it is nothing if the etiquette is slightly hindered. Please make a clear decision. ”

"It's clear what to do. Concubine Qi, you also get up, isn't it just the little guy making a fuss. Whose little things don't make a fuss?" Xiao Lingtian waved his hand and motioned for Concubine Qi to get up.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Concubine Qi got up with the support of the female official.
