Fanwai (6) The storm is coming
In the past month, Concubine Li has worked hard for the crown princess's birthday wholeheartedly. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info First, she knew that the queen was dissatisfied with the prince handing over power to her, and she wanted the queen to change her opinion of her, and second, she could really let go of the power, and she would respond to all calls, and the Quartet would be in awe, so not majestic!
Seeing that the crown princess's birthday was approaching, Concubine Li took advantage of her free time to bully the concubines in the other palaces, and those who competed with her most on weekdays deducted most of the silver taels and living expenses in the name of the crown princess's birthday, and also explained that the palace people could not be too polite to them, and the palace concubines dared not speak out.
As for An Ruolan, Concubine Li never thought of making her better, the prince is still dreaming of the word Mingxiu, how can she not be resentful!
"Someone!" Concubine Li called the lady in charge of the Xunlan Palace, "Ming'er is the birthday of the crown princess, there were many people at that time, you took advantage of the lack of attention, and brought a few maids and women to the Banglou, just said, the palace allowed them to go out of the Banglou to the princess to say hello, and asked them to kowtow to the weeping moon platform and then kowtow to the Xunlan Palace, and then the palace has its own arrangements." ”
Mama smiled flatteringly: "This matter is simple, wrapped in the old slave, don't worry!"
"Hmm. Go ahead. Concubine Li was very happy when she remembered that she could humiliate Mingxiu in public tomorrow.
Early in the morning of the second day, the silk and bamboo ceremonies and music sounded, and the concubines and concubines of the palace were dressed up early, and when the second golden bell rang, they could go to the platform to say goodbye. The first bell rang, it was the envoy sent by the emperor to bring gifts to congratulate the birthday, and the congratulatory gifts brought by the envoys were all rare treasures of respecting the country, which dazzled people, and the second bell rang when the envoys dispersed. All the concubines went to the weeping moon platform to ask for a birthday, and then the concubines and concubines went back to the palace to change their dresses, and the third bell rang, it was the prince and the princess and the princess who went to the rooftop to pray. When the two of them returned, it was almost noon.
Concubine Li had already arranged a birthday banquet in the back garden, and all the concubines knelt down to welcome the crown princess into the table before they sat down. Because of the presence of the prince at the birthday banquet, the concubines dressed up in flowers, and they were much sweeter when they spoke. First the kabuki performed songs and dances, then the talented concubines performed for rewards, and finally the sake was boiled and toasted.
Seeing that the ceremonial music was playing and the banquet began, Jiang Ran looked at the vacant seat of the six princes under the crown prince and said, "The banquet is about to start, why hasn't the sixth brother arrived yet?"
An Shao was also a little worried, "I think there is something delayed, Qi De, you go to see what happened to the sixth brother, why can't you come to the table." ”
Qi De was ordered to leave. After a while, he came back, "Your Highness, Niangniang, His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince has come down." ”
As soon as the words fell, the sixth prince came over and hugged his fists and said, "Big brother, something has been delayed." I've made amends to my eldest brother and sister-in-law!"
An Shao smiled: "It's okay, let's sit down quickly." ”
Concubine Li also interjected at this time and said: "The sixth brother has been deeply valued by the emperor recently, and it is inevitable that he will be busy. Now that the family is sitting at the table, what else are you polite?"
The sixth prince put down the wine glass he had just picked up, and his tone became cold: "No matter how busy you are, you can't be busy, Concubine Side." I heard that the sister-in-law's birthday depends on your words alone, and even the waste concubine of the cold palace did not hesitate to greet her, sixth brother, I sighed to myself. ”
Concubine Li's face immediately froze, and An Shao heard the meaning of the six princes' words, it seems that she has not been doing well these days.
Concubine Li smiled awkwardly: "Sixth brother, it's up." ”
An Shao said at this time: "The envoy who just respected the country presented a group of singers, and said that they could only borrow but not send, and the singers who could make Jingguo such a treasure don't know what it looks like, Qi De, please come up and ask me to enjoy it." ”
For a while, the back garden sang and danced, and there was laughter.
The Temple of the Sun.
The six princes still did not keep their promises with An Ruolan, and came to the Maori Hall at night. He must tell his eldest brother what he has seen and heard today, and he must let his eldest brother know what kind of person his favorite Concubine Li is.
"Sixth brother, why are you here if you don't rest so late?" An Shao sat in front of the desk and closed the book.
"Big brother, who lives in the building?" the sixth prince didn't go around in circles with him, and asked straight to the point.
"It's just a waste concubine. ”
"How is the abolished concubine better than the palace slave?"
"What do you mean by that?"
"Big brother, I'm late for a banquet today, and it's in Banglou that I saw an injustice. ”
"Isn't there a palace servant who bullied her?" An Shao frowned unconsciously.
"I wanted to see the scenery of Banglou, but when I went, those mothers-in-law forced the concubine to move the scissors......" Before the sixth prince finished speaking, An Shao asked: "What?
"It turns out that the eldest brother still cares about her. It's just that if I go later, the concubine is afraid that she will die. Big brother, I guess that concubine is your new concubine Ming, the two of you used to be so affectionate, how did you become this class now?"
"It's a long story, but it's between the two of us. You just have to tell me, who is going to harm her?" An Shao just wanted to fly to her quickly at the moment to see if there was anything wrong with her.
"If the eldest brother still has her in his heart, he shouldn't let her suffer there. If you ask me who wants to harm her, you won't like to hear it if I say it, since she doesn't like the eldest brother like it like this, why should the eldest brother care?" said the sixth prince in a tone that pretended not to care.
An Shao didn't joke with him either, and asked, "Who is that person?"
"The only person in the East Palace is pampered and arrogant, and only one person is afraid of you and her rekindling of the old relationship. ”
An Shao was a little shocked, "Concubine Li?"
How is this possible, Concubine Li has always been a good wife in her heart, and after the birth of the crown princess, Concubine Li can be described as ice and snow smart, mature and stable, and her affection for her is getting deeper and deeper.
The sixth prince sighed and said, "I know that the eldest brother doesn't believe it, so I hope that concubine will ask for more blessings." Leave. ”
The six princes pouted and left, and An Shao sat alone in front of the desk.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, Concubine Li invites you over. The slave who came laughed.
An Shao was already in a bad mood, and said angrily: "Presumptuous! Today is the birthday of the crown princess, you tell the palace to go to her? ”
"His Royal Highness the Prince, spare your life!" the slave knelt down with a pout.
As soon as there was such a commotion in the house, Qi De came in, and when he saw this, he immediately ordered the slave to drag the slave down.
"Your Highness, take care of your body, the time has come, the crown princess is already ready, let's go to the moon platform." ”
An Shao sighed, got up and left with Qi De.
