In the sound of firecrackers, the old year is goodbye, and the snow is flying in another spring. Shuheng entered the palace for the first time after becoming the princess of Qin for the New Year, got up early in the morning to change clothes, and the gifts of all parties were counted properly, and they must be perfect and not make mistakes in all aspects.

The five watch chickens sang, when she was helped out of the bed by the tangerine with half-squinted eyes, Liu Yang had already come back from a boxing trip, the close-fitting silk shirt outlined the body lines well, Shuheng looked lazily, and the tangerine put on a rose-red embroidered plum blossom shirt, and sighed in his heart that it was a great loss not to be a model. I swallowed a cup of sweet almond tea, and I didn't feel that it was painful to get up early in winter.

After a simple breakfast, Shuheng changed into palace clothes, hung gold seals, crowned pearls, and dressed up magnificently, and entered the palace with Liu Yang to congratulate.

Everyone gathered in Yuxiu Palace, and Shu Heng looked at it and found that Concubine Li, Concubine Zhang, Princess Zhang, various palace concubines, Jing'an, Chang'an, Long'an and several other princesses who had not yet been titled, Shoukang, together with the four princes of Qi, Xiaosi and the six princes, all arrived. Princess Jing'an also brought the little girl into the palace together, and the chubby girl was being held in the queen's arms and kissed and touched affectionately.

The brilliant pearl and emerald of the court are dazzling, Shuheng only stared at the yellow on the high platform, and with Liu Yang, slowly, elegantly and dignifiedly, he walked over, supple and well-behaved, bent down to make a blessing salute, and the action was perfect. When I walked, the pendant in my ear and the luan on my waist were motionless, and the distance of each step was the same, and everyone who saw it secretly admired. The queen mother usually doesn't talk much for fear of making mistakes, but at this moment she is amusing her granddaughter happily, and she didn't hold it for a while, and immediately said: "Huh? I don't think there is a problem with Rong Yi's rules and etiquette, why do you need the strictest? ”

Concubine Li's face changed suddenly, Shuheng's court etiquette class was only three days, and this etiquette was definitely not taught. immediately said: "The difference between the queen's words, the court was originally for excellence, for the sake of jade, and not for turning stones into gold, so being able to be elected as the princess is naturally not far behind." ”

Liu Yang frowned slightly, but he didn't say anything, he still had to maintain due respect for his father's palace concubine.

Concubine Yuan smiled: "This is naturally the blessing of the Yuan family. Heng'er, come and sit. ”

Shuheng nodded yes, but he deliberately went to the queen mother to bow again to show his respect, which was also the meaning of inquiry, and the queen mother really smiled: "Prepared early in the morning, right?" Strangely tired, go to your aunt's. King Qin, come here. Look, your niece misses her uncle. ”

Only then did Shuheng move to Concubine Yuan's side, paying great attention, straightening his back, leaning slightly, and only sitting on a third of the chair. Looking up, Liu Yang really bent down to take the big girl from the queen's hand, he probably didn't hold the child, his posture was very awkward, and the doll was not very comfortable, so he just twisted around. Jing An hurriedly walked over and took it from her hand, and said with a smile: "Look at the clumsy appearance, you will have a doll to hold like this in the future, see if your sister-in-law doesn't pinch you." ”

Shuheng was stunned for a moment before he realized that his sister-in-law was talking about himself, and the smile he put on was suddenly much more reluctant: Hey, this title Yijia instantly felt that he was old. Liu Yang lowered his head and smiled at Shu Heng when he heard this, and Shu Heng rolled his eyes unknowingly: I didn't plan to have a child so soon, and I haven't played enough myself.

While talking and laughing, there was a eunuch outside who raised his voice and shouted, the old man of the Queen Mother was late. She has always gotten up early, but she is willing to let her children and daughters-in-law wait, confirming the law that "the later you come, the higher your status". Shuheng followed a vote of women, and all kinds of royal family members bowed down together, respectfully asking the Queen Mother Sheng'an.

The thin and shriveled Queen Mother, supported by the two big palace maids, did not squint, passing by the kneeling crowd that showed the back of her head. Shu Heng's eyes were threatening, and he vaguely saw the queen mother's indigo gold thread embroidered phoenix thick-soled shoes. The old man sat down at the top of the seat, and then smiled at the corner of his mouth: "Get up." It's early. Hey, I'm getting older, but I'm just looking at the crowd and being lively. Look, there's a big table around here, and it's like a family. ”

Naturally, everyone laughed. The pavilion has already been properly furnished, the queen mother alone occupies a long rosewood gold corner table above, the queen with the four concubines a table, the other palace concubines a table, several princesses naturally together, the king of Qin and the princes with the horses sit together. There is no princess's table here, and the book balance is a unique flower. She took advantage of her position and Concubine Yuan's earlier reminder, so she took the opportunity to share the table with the two sisters-in-law of Jing'an and Chang'an.

Unexpectedly, seeing that she had just sat down, Concubine Li sneered: "Is it a delicate child, where is the mother-in-law who sits on her own ceremony?" Although our royal family doesn't need the princess to serve, but the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are the mother-in-law, which is too conscious. ”

Jing An immediately frowned and said: "The rules of the royal family are originally different from ordinary people, do you want Princess Qin to follow the rules of the cloth vegetable station?" If you say so, then my queen mother is the main mother, and everyone else is a concubine no matter what kind of concubine, Li Niangniang, have you ever kowtowed to my queen mother and asked for peace? ”

Chang'an's face changed. The eldest sister is naturally right to defend her sister-in-law, but this is too offensive. The women in the hall were not resentful and were superior and favored, and you have pulled another wave of hatred, but the queen mother is still sitting on the throne! She immediately stepped on Princess Jing'an quietly.

Jing'an was stunned for a moment, saw the Queen Mother's gloomy face about to drip, and looked at the two tables of the concubines with strange expressions, only then did she realize that she was reckless, and immediately bowed down in front of the Queen Mother, and kowtowed in a proper manner: "Queen Mother, Jing'an is abrupt, ask the Queen Mother for punishment." ”

Shuheng sighed softly, and had to kneel down with him: "Queen Mother, this is all granddaughter-in-law's thoughtlessness, and Rong Yi is willing to be punished." ”

Seeing this, Concubine Yuan also got up and left her seat, silently kneeling down in front of the Queen Mother. Princess Chang'an slowly knelt down with a white face. Concubine Li suddenly shouted, "What are you doing here?" Is it forced to the palace? "This is blackmail, a fair threat!

The Queen Mother glanced at her coldly, and she immediately shut up. The old lady put down the small silver spoon she had just picked up in her hand, and smiled without smiling: "It's a good day for the New Year, what is this for?" Do you want someone to have a worry-free meal? ”

The kneeling posture of the four of them became more and more respectful. The Queen Mother said slowly: "Okay, let's get up." She raised her hand to signal the palace maid beside her, and sure enough, someone came over, Shuheng only felt that his arm was gently supported, and his strength was not strong but irresistible. Several people stood up. The Queen Mother looked at Jing'an with a smile: "It stands to reason that the rules of our royal family are not quite the same as ordinary people, but they are similar. There is a difference between respect and inferiority, but this clause is very clear. Jing'an's rules should be re-established, after all, it is not your business alone to get married, and it represents the image of my entire Liu family. In this way, if it is not too difficult to arrange, go back and copy the "Disciple Rules", copy it ten times. ”

Jing An could only have a white face. Shu Heng's heart was also surprised and cold, the Queen Mother's face-slapping skill was really full. "Di Zi Gui" is a children's enlightenment book, the opening few sentences "parents call, do not delay, parents life, do not be lazy, parents teach, need to listen, parents responsibility, need to obey the -----" is simply a peerless good thing to regulate filial piety and moral kidnapping. This is directly saying that Princess Jing'an can't even pass the basic primary education.

The queen's face is also ugly, Princess Jing'an has not been in the study for a few days since she was a child, the only special case for the princes and princesses, I don't know how many people have red eyes behind their backs. At this time, the Queen Mother was openly embarrassed, and there may be many people who are secretly happy in their hearts.

Shu Heng sighed in his heart, made up his mind, opened his lips slightly, and said with a smile: "The Queen Mother is really joking, look at my sister-in-law." Everyone looked at Shuheng with hellish eyes, and even Concubine Yuan was surprised. Joke? When did the Queen Mother ever joke with someone?

Shuheng seemed to be unknown, and said with a smile: "Filial piety comes first, and conscience does not ask about deeds." The princess just spoke against Concubine Li, but she was impulsive, but when she thought about it carefully, it was because the queen mother loved the palace and the family, and there should be no precedent for the princess to serve the ladies and sisters in the past. ”

She smiled, her eyes were gentle, and the smile on the corner of her lips was cute and cute, which made people unconsciously hear the words in their hearts. Yes, there has never been such a thing, what do you mean, Concubine Li? Shuheng glanced at her unintentionally: You deliberately make things difficult for me, and you think I don't know.

"I rule the world with filial piety in Daxia, although the princess speaks inappropriately, but between her mouths, she protects the queen everywhere, which is a heart to protect the mother and the embodiment of filial piety. The Queen Mother is the most benevolent and kind, how can she punish a filial daughter? "It's not uncommon to label and cover hats, but it's very useful, and Shuheng first set Jing'an's identity.

As soon as she finished saying this, a smile appeared on the queen's face, oops, it is worthy of my good Jing'an, filial daughter. Look at Shuheng's daughter-in-law again, she is very satisfied, she is really smart and clever, her identity is still noble, her appearance is handsome, tsk, this daughter-in-law is really good.

"Recall that Jing An's words were also to help Ah Heng get rid of his mistakes, and he used inappropriate words in a hurry. But the true love is to protect the sister-in-law, which is the manifestation of the family's harmony and affection. As the Queen Mother said, the family is flesh and blood. How could the Queen Mother punish such a filial and enthusiastic girl who protects her relatives? So Ah Heng knows that you must be joking, just to scare her, no, didn't Concubine Li scare Ah Heng just now? It's all a joke-----hehehehe" Shuheng covered his mouth and smiled, very well-behaved.

There are many smart people in the hall, and they all laugh when they see the opportunity, so that the atmosphere is warmed up again. But this laughter was extremely harsh in the ears of the Queen Mother. Mistaken? You first said that there is no such case, how can you get rid of it? You instantly turned Jing'an's image of "disrespecting palace concubines and disrespecting elders", how can I still punish it? But you still know that helping Concubine Li's idiot round the steps is barely okay.

She glanced at Shu Heng, as if to tell her that I saw through the twists and turns in your belly, snorted coldly, and smiled without smiling: "Yes, look, how smart is Princess Qin?" Know the true intentions of the mourning family. It's just fun, the punishment for the New Year is this and that, and the mourning family will not be uninteresting when they are old. ”

The people in the room naturally laughed out loud very cooperatively, and said some beautiful words to praise the Queen Mother's benevolence and generosity.

"By the way, didn't you say that you should bring your sister-in-law in?" The Queen Mother asked casually.

Jing An bowed his head and replied: "Back to the Queen Mother, her aunt celebrated her birthday and invited her to be a guest." ”

The Queen Mother nodded and said no more.

Shuheng gently hooked the corners of his mouth, pulled Jing An, sat down in the seat after leaving, and shook Princess Chang'an's cold hand unknowingly, telling her not to be too nervous. Princess Chang'an looked at Shuheng holding a handkerchief and gently wiping her sweaty palm, a little embarrassed but very grateful, and said sincerely: "Sister-in-law, you are really amazing, I have been in the palace for so many years, and it is the first time I have seen the Queen Mother take back her life." ”

Sister-in-law? It's sister-in-law again. Shu Heng Wei embarrassed: The girl really doesn't like this title at all.

Separated by a bead curtain, Liu Yang, the king of Qin, has actually been silently paying attention to the situation here: after all, he knows that his two younger sisters have always been a little uneasy, after all, he knows that Concubine Li doesn't know what medicine she has taken wrong----- and she is working hard to target her daughter-in-law. Oh, my princess is so smart! Liu Yang was very nervous. looked at Gan San next to him, and was a little annoyed, your wife was reprimanded, you didn't go to save people, and immediately kicked him unceremoniously under the table.

As soon as his eyes changed, Gan San also knew what King Qin meant, and kicked back without hesitation: When the old lady gets angry, your father and my father-in-law can only obediently kneel and bear the foaming star, are you looking down on me too highly? Besides, women's affairs have to be solved by women themselves, and it will only be worse if we reach out!

And King Qi, who was sitting on the side, was also embarrassed on his handsome face, and he raised his glass with shame. Watching my mother stir up trouble, watching my mother embarrassment, I can't stop it, hey, although the queen is stupid, she is self-aware, why can't Concubine Li see the situation clearly? Since ancient times, the emperor's favorite is brothers, friends and brothers, and the most hated is the struggle for power and profit, even if you pretend to be a brother, what is the matter with you making it so clear that you are making things difficult for Princess Qin?

Fate, you are too unfair to me Liu Yun. The King of Qi looked lonely, full of the poet's depression. Since ancient times, the sages have been lonely, and they have a glass of wine in front of them. Get out of the way, this king is going to chant poetry.

Xiao Si is holding the carved ivory chopsticks and continuing to go to the sour soup dumplings in the open lotus bowl of the eight immortals offering longevity in Jiayun, as if he had not heard of all this: Hey, this dumpling knows that the mother concubine is wrapped when he looks at the shape.

The six princes on the side sat silently, didn't speak, and didn't eat much, but he would follow what Xiao Si clipped. According to past experience, the dishes picked out by the four princes will taste a little better.
