Chapter 66: Remembering the Si People
Murong Yin'er's arrival caught everyone off guard. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info She is still wearing a rose red pomegranate skirt, covered with a plain white fox collar cloak, three thousand green silk bundled into a falling horse bun, twelve hairpins with phoenix tails, dignified and luxurious, with the bearing of a queen of the middle palace.
Everyone was panicked and said goodbye, and Murong Yin'er only smiled, and sat leisurely in the seat prepared for Concubine Shu.
Concubine Shu blushed, originally today was Princess Wei Wan's birthday, and as the princess's biological mother, she could sit on the same stage with the emperor. Now that the concubine has arrived, she will inevitably be squeezed down and watch other women take care of their children.
Murong Yin'er saw Concubine Shu's reaction in her eyes, she did this just to establish her authority, even if she didn't walk in the harem in the past, she was still the woman with the highest rank, and she was the only woman who could stand shoulder to shoulder with the emperor.
"This palace is becoming more and more memorable, and he forgot to go and tell Concubine Xian in advance." She smiled and said, as if she was apologizing, "Concubine Shu, there are no treasures in this palace that can be given to the little princess, but I have to express my heart, how to say that this palace is also her mother, so I sew these clothes with my own hands, I hope you don't dislike it." ā
Concubine Shu's heart was full of fire, but there was nowhere to attack. No matter how noble the status of the concubine is, it is also a side room, and the princess and princess can only shout "concubine Niangniang" when she sees it. She actually called herself the princess's mother, as if she regarded herself as a queen. Besides, what palace concubine wants other women to make clothes for their children? She's not a princess when she does this?
"The concubine doesn't dare." Concubine Shu replied and sat down in the next boring place.
At the right time, Jingcai people from Changchun Palace led Princess Wei Wan back together. The princess grabbed a pear blossom, jumped up and ran to Concubine Shu like a lively rabbit, pulled her sleeve and said, "Mother, you see how beautiful the pear blossom is, it was picked by the little master Jing for his son!" ā
Concubine Shu looked at her well-behaved and lovely daughter with a smile, touched her head, looked at the concubine reluctantly and said, "Wei Wan is a good boy, sit with the concubine tonight, the concubine likes you." ā
As soon as the princess heard that she couldn't be with her mother tonight, she cried out with a "wow", tears fell down her eyes, and she tugged on the sleeve of the concubine and asked, "Did Wei Wan make the concubine angry again?" Mother doesn't want Wei Yun anymore? ā
Murong Yin'er didn't expect the princess to cry, and when she was about to persuade her, the emperor's voice came from the door of the main hall, "Who made the little birthday unhappy?" ā
Everyone in the palace got up to greet her, the emperor walked straight to the princess, easily hugged her, took the silk palette handed by the attendant next to her to wipe away the princess's tears, and saw the little guy's aggrieved appearance and loved the child more and more, "Wei Wan told his father, who made you unhappy?" ā
The princess glanced up at the people who were staring at her, then lowered her head again, silently speaking.
Concubine Shu knew that there was no benefit to making a big fuss, so she turned her head sharply and said, "Wei Wan is just a concubine who didn't accompany her out to pick pear blossoms, and this child is becoming more and more willful." The concubine is coming, and the sister of the virtuous concubine is also here, how can the concubine walk away at will? ā
The emperor swept her out of the corner of his eye, hooked the corner of his lips, and said to the princess, "So that's how it is." Okay, Wei Wan is not angry, today you sit with your father, and your father will bring you delicious food. ā
The princess was raised by Concubine Shu, and she was very distant from the emperor, and her understanding of her father was very vague, and she only knew that her mother had always respected the emperor. Even though she was very reluctant, she didn't dare to refuse when she saw her mother's pleading eyes.
The emperor caressed the princess's cheek lovingly, and finally set his eyes on Murong Yin'er, who was standing on the top of the imperial steps. He always knew that she had some means, but he didn't expect her to choose to come out today. Why is she so anxious? Isn't it because he took Su Wanqing to worship the Dingling Mausoleum?
Murong Yin'er squatted down and saluted, smiling and shouting "Third Brother". She knew what her purpose was today, and just by looking at his love for the princess just now, she knew that being good to this child would help her regain her favor. Of course, it's only "good" on the surface.
She clapped her hands lightly at the princess, then opened her arms and said, "The princess is here, my father has been tired all day, let him rest for a while, okay?" ā
The princess flinched again and again, hiding in the crook of the emperor's arm, refusing to show her face. The emperor couldn't help but be a little annoyed, and said angrily, "Are you okay?" It's better to pay more attention, Wei Wan is still young. ā
The smile on Murong Yin'er's lips gradually froze, and finally slowly retreated. Her body is fine, and the occasional cold and cough are just a depression in her heart. Staying in Zhongcui Palace for so many years was just gambling with the emperor, but what made her sad was that she no longer had a place in his heart, and her stubbornness failed to bring her anything useful.
"The concubine obeys." Murong Yin'er gritted her teeth and said, "It's not early, presumably the princess is also hungry." Third brother, let's have a feast! ā
The emperor snorted coldly and threw a look at Li Ronggui, Li Ronggui secretly gestured, and the palace people who served the meal walked out in turn with luxurious trays. Immediately, the dancing girls of the Shangyi Bureau also slowly stepped forward to dance, and the music of raising money was quietly played, reflecting the beautiful scene of the bright moon hanging high.
Wei Wan looked at the many women sitting below jerkyly, she was a little uncomfortable, so she lowered her head in a panic and grabbed the fragrant chicken with both hands to eat. In a few moments, it was already shiny.
The emperor was helpless and funny, although he seemed playful, but after all, it was not etiquette, and it was inevitable that a six-year-old child could not use chopsticks. He deliberately said to Concubine Shu, "Wei Wan is a royal princess, you should know what to teach her, you should take care of it in your heart, and you should not spoil it too much." Wei Wan is six years old, but he still can't use silver chopsticks, what have you been doing all these years? ā
The biggest reaction was the princess, who was already a little aggrieved when she couldn't be by her mother's side, and when she heard the emperor reprimand her mother like this, she suddenly lost her strength in her hand, and the piece of chicken slipped down the peach pink robe and fell to the ground raw. Qingying's tears also slid down her cheeks, dripping on the bright yellow dragon-patterned case scarf.
The emperor realized that he was talking heavily, and hurriedly freed his hand to wipe the tears from the princess's cheeks, but he didn't want to be avoided by his daughter, he couldn't get off the stage for a while, and said to Li Ronggui, "Take her down to change her clothes." ā
When Concubine Shu saw the princess crying, her mind suddenly became confused, and she stood up suddenly, "Let the concubine take Wei Wan away!" ā
The emperor felt panicked in his heart for some reason, and waved his hand to say nothing. Looking at the dazzling singing and dancing, he also felt a little bored, so he asked Li Ronggui to choose the elegant singing and dancing. He had just poured a glass of wine, and was about to drink it all when he heard an ethereal and illusory sound of a flute.
