Chapter 642: Full Moon Banquet
At this time, many people have arrived in the imperial garden, all gathered in twos and threes, sometimes chatting, sometimes enjoying the beautiful scenery in the garden.
Many noble ladies also gathered, among which the most sought after were Mrs. Lu Da and the Duchess of Dingguo.
Both of them were surrounded by a bunch of people, and there were endless words of flattery. Mrs. Lu is a sincere person, and she can't stand this the most, but because she can't get off the stage because of her bad face, she reluctantly supports it. However, the Duchess of Dingguo has some exquisite skills, and she pulls a few Duchess and Mrs. Houfu, which is really not fun.
Speaking of which, she can't blame her, her own daughter's family affairs have not yet been settled, they are almost nineteen years old, and they have not yet decided to marry, so they have to rely on a lot of relationships with these noble ladies who have sons in the family, so that the marriage can be finalized.
Mrs. Lingyang Hou said: "Duchess Guo, there are several unmarried girls in your mansion, right? I heard that the Yongding Marquis Mansion also has a daughter. ”
The Duchess of Dingguo said in her heart, my own daughter is not married, who has the air to control Fu Yingsheng's little? Not to mention that the queen mother does not want to see this sister the most, even if she is to be seen, there is also a mother to call the shots, and she is not needed horizontally and vertically.
I just thought so in my heart, but I didn't dare to say it, for fear that people would think that she was a housewife who was unkind, so she hurriedly said: "What Mrs. Hou said is, isn't this looking at each other? There must be a suitable person." ”
Mrs. Ling Yanghou laughed, "It doesn't matter if you look at each other or not, anyway, none of these people in Beijing dare to marry her to enter the door, and that young lady's mother killed our queen's mother's biological mother, who is not afraid of causing trouble to the family." ”
The Duchess of Dingguo grinned when she heard this, and said in her heart, don't you want to marry something, everyone else knows, come here to plug my mouth?
While the two were talking, Mrs. Dingyuan Hou came over and saluted Duchess Dingguo, "Yo, good sister, if you want to talk about it, our family also has a son, and the girl in your family wants to say goodbye, so it is better to consider our son." ”
The Duchess of Dingguo is so disgusting, who in Beijing doesn't know that the second of the four great gentlemen is this prince Zhong Ling, when Mrs. Hou Baba ran to the Yongding Marquis Mansion to marry Guo Wenying, it was a matter of turmoil in the city. Who is stupid at this time and dares to marry a good daughter to their family?
It's okay for others, she doesn't have a good temper for this Mrs. Hou, and was about to say a few words of irony, when she suddenly heard the eunuch shouting, "The queen has arrived-"
Everyone didn't dare to talk anymore, they all knelt down in unison, and shouted in their mouths: "See the queen mother, the queen mother is a thousand years old." ”
Guo Wenying slowly walked in under the crowd of people kneeling, although she did not like the number of courtesies, but in the public etiquette is not wrong at all, that demeanor is thousands of noble and extraordinary demeanor makes people suddenly admire.
A eunuch lifted the throne, she sat down, and raised her hand slightly, "Let's calm down." ”
The ministers and their ladies all stood up, and stood on either side according to their ranks.
Guo Wenying said loudly: "Today is the full moon banquet of the little prince and the little princess, thank you for coming, the palace also feels that there is light on the face, the emperor has something important to do, and it will arrive later, so please sit down first." ”
At this time, many tables had already been set up on the stone paths on both sides of the Imperial Garden, and everyone answered and sat down in their places under the guidance of the waiter. Today's seating arrangement is also exquisite, Feng Jingting personally handled it, and put the seats of Lu Junqing, Dingguo Gong and Yongding Hou and others forward, which can be regarded as a special favor in the closest place to Guo Wenying.
Mrs. Dingyuan Hou looked at the graceful and luxurious queen mother sitting on the seat, it was really hard to imagine that two or three years ago, she had proposed to her to her son, at that time she was not too satisfied with her motherless, but now she is the mother of a country, the world is really changeable, and people can't sigh for a long time.
Lu Junqing sat closest to Guo Wenying, and as soon as he sat down, he said, "Niangniang, why don't you see the little prince and the little princess come out?"
Guo Wenying said: "The imperial garden is windy, it's not easy to bring it out, and it was a little cold a few days ago, and it's not very good." ”
Lu Junqing let out an "oh", with a disappointed face, he, who is an uncle, has deliberately picked up a bit in order to see these two today, and has also trimmed his beard, Mrs. Lu also laughed at him and he was not a blind date, who was dressed like this to show him?
Guo Wenying couldn't help but laugh when she saw his disappointed face, her uncle really looked like a child the more he lived. A few days ago, I heard the emperor say that my uncle was on the fold of resignation again, and asked her what her opinion was?
She can't say anything, it's just that the position of this official is too important, these courtiers are old and young, and none of them can really be qualified for this position.
After all, my uncle is also old, and he is tired of officialdom, and now he only thinks about teasing his grandson and enjoying himself.
She smiled and said, "Uncle, don't be sad, just hold a family banquet another day and invite the family to reunite once." ”
Lu Junqing was overjoyed, "Thank you, Niangniang." He said and said: "There is one thing to ask for advice from Niangniang, the old mother of the family is still in Beijing, and she wants to enter the palace to visit Niangniang, and she also asks Niangniang for permission." ”
Guo Wenying said happily: "Hasn't my grandmother left Beijing yet?"
When she got married, her grandmother went to Beijing to congratulate her, and she didn't think about living these times.
Lu Junqing said: "It's just that I had a minor illness when I was old, so I stayed in Beijing and never left." Worried about the inconvenience of the mother's body, I was afraid that the mother would worry, so I didn't mention it to the mother. ”
"Okay now?"
"It's a lot better, but I had a headache this morning, so I didn't come to the full moon banquet, but I've been thinking about it in my heart, and I want to enter the palace to take a look. ”
When her relatives enter the palace, she is not the queen and it is not easy to make decisions directly, she must always pass the emperor. Guo Wenying said: "Go back to the palace and talk to the emperor, just invite your grandmother into the palace." ”
"Thank you, mother. ”
They are talking here, very affectionate, Guo Yiqian's parents who are sitting in the back are a little unhappy, speaking of which they are closer to Guo Wenying, he is an uncle, Lu Junqing is an uncle, how can there be a reason for an uncle to sit behind his uncle?
But this seat was arranged by the emperor himself, and he didn't dare to say anything, just
