When the third prince saw the eldest prince, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, his expression was a little arrogant, and he said hello lazily.

The eldest prince turned a blind eye to this, smiled and didn't mind.

Duan Qingya stood beside the third prince, curtsied slightly to the two, and said respectfully: "Big brother, sister-in-law." ”

The eldest prince nodded, smiled at her kindly, and then turned to Zhao Jin on the side and said, "Seventh brother, you entered the palace early today, and it would be different if you really became a family." ”

Zhao Jin smiled faintly and didn't say anything.

Everyone in the palace knows that Zhao Jin, the seventh prince, except for Zhou Zong to send him to announce his official affairs, he rarely enters the palace and rarely participates in banquets in the palace. On weekdays, Zhou Zong has something to invite several princes into the palace to discuss, and he is also the slowest one.

People seem to be used to this. knew that Zhao Jin was haunted by the death of his mother's concubine, and there was a dislike between him and his father.

"These are the two siblings." The eldest prince said a few words to Zhao Jin, and then turned his attention to Shen Ya and the others.

"Big brother is good, sister-in-law is good." Li Shuyan saw the eldest prince and saluted him with a smile.

As soon as the princess next to the eldest prince saw Li Shuyan, a smile immediately bloomed on her face and said: "Shuyan is really getting more and more beautiful, come, let me see, I haven't seen you for a long time, it's really a change in the eighteenth year of the female university." ”

The princess's name is Yuan Shuning, the eldest daughter of the left prime minister of the dynasty, and the mother-in-law, married Zhao Yin at the age of sixteen, and was named Concubine Zhen, and now ten years have passed.

When Yuan Shuzhen and Li Shangshu's family became friends, when Yuan Shuzhen went to Li's house, she met Li Shuyan, who was nine years younger than herself. At that time, Li Shuyan was only seven or eight years old, and now she has grown into a slim girl, and Yuan Shuzhen is quite happy to see her.

"Sister Yuan made fun of me again." Li Shuyan's face was a little red when she said this, and she could see it. Li Shuyan has a really good relationship with the princess.

"Who is this?" Yuan Shuzhen and Li Shuyan laughed twice, and then turned their gaze to Shen Ya.

"The courtier's daughter Duangeya, meet the eldest brother and sister-in-law." Shen Ya was originally furious by the gaze of the eldest prince, and was a little stunned, until Yuan Shuzhen opened her mouth, she reacted and hurriedly saluted the two.

"This is Duan Aiqing's beloved daughter?" The eldest prince seemed to know, and looked at Shen Ya with some curiosity.

Forehead...... Daughter. That's an exaggeration. Shen Ya glanced at Zhao Jin with some embarrassment, but his face was expressionless, as if everything was none of his business, and he looked indifferent.

"Big brother laughed." She whispered with some embarrassment.

Duan Qingya's face turned purple.

If Shen Ya is Duanhou's beloved daughter, then what is she?

Hand. Unconsciously clenched, looking at the woman with a subtle smile not far away, her eyes revealing deep hatred.

Zhao Jin saw Shen Ya's shy smirk and hooked his lips. It's rare to see her shy. I have seen a lot of sharp teeth.

"Seventh brother, I heard that you caught a beast and came back, when you have the opportunity, you have to take us to your mansion to have a look." The eldest prince laughed at Shen Ya once. He shifted his attention to Zhao Jin again.

When the third prince heard this, he seemed to be interested: "Yes, this king is looking for an opportunity to come over your house to have a look, it is said that the leopard." It's a rarity. ”

Zhao Jin nodded, with a smile on his face, and said, "I happen to be free these days, big brother." If the third brother is interested, he can come to the house to have a look in the next few days. ”

"Good. That's it. The third prince responded very boldly, and then burst out laughing.

The eldest prince also nodded with a smile.

The scene seems to be very harmonious, and there seems to be no tension between several princes as the people talk about, in order to compete for the throne. Except for the three princes, who are a little arrogant, the others seem to be very harmonious.

Shen Ya was a little incomprehensible.

She didn't know what kind of thoughts were hidden in everyone's hearts behind these seemingly laughter.

Everyone present, except for her, is a master of acting on the spot.

Ning's performance kung fu may be slightly inferior to these princes.

Shen Ya looked at everyone present coldly, and suddenly felt very bored.

She didn't bother to participate in their conversation, hiding in the corner and quietly laughing with Dongchun, visiting the ancient palace.

After a while, the other princes all came, and everyone set off together to the Purple Cloud Hall to accept the canonization.

The canonization ceremony lasted for a whole morning, and the officials and deacons of the Ministry of Rites had already prepared the canonization treasure and the internal supervisor personally announced it. Then the gold book and the gold seal were awarded.

After the canonization was completed, he went to the palace of the Queen Mother, stood on the platform, bowed six times, knelt and bowed three times to the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother instructed two sentences; After the ceremony, they went to the emperor and the queen's palace respectively, and performed six bows, three kneeling and three buckle salutes, and also received instruction.

In this way, the canonization ceremony is over.

In the future, regardless of the main concubine or the concubine, they will be registered in the palace and enjoy royal treatment.

Shen Ya was named Concubine Duan, and Li Shuyan was Concubine Shu.

Duan Qingya was named a concubine.

There are other canonized mothers, and Shen Ya can't remember clearly. It was a bit chaotic, and it was nice for her to remember that.

The prince's concubine, if it is the crown princess, the rank is the first grade, the side concubine, from the second grade. In addition to the prince's concubines, the concubines of other princes, if they are main concubines, they will be from the second rank, the side concubines, and the third rank.

The prince's concubine is the same as the crown prince.

Two days ago, Zhao Jin was named Prince Gongshun and sealed the fief in the south because of his meritorious efforts in quelling the chaos several times, and he was still alive in the south. When the new emperor ascended the throne, it was the day they went to the fiefdom.

Therefore, although Shen Ya is Zhao Jin's side concubine, because she is the prince's side concubine, her rank is the same as that of the prince's main concubine, from the second grade.

This realization made Shen Ya a little proud.

In terms of grade, she turned out to be the same as Duan Qingya.

I didn't expect Zhao Jin to become a prince, no wonder I saw the eldest prince and the third prince just now, although he was a younger brother, he didn't salute the two of them, only greetings between brothers.

The eldest prince and the third prince have made few meritorious contributions, and they are still the kings of the county.

After the canonization ceremony, a eunuch came to pass the word, saying that a family banquet was held in the imperial garden, and all the princes and mothers were invited to participate in the family banquet.

In fact, Shen Ya was very disgusted with this so-called family banquet.

With a group of strangers. Eating, drinking, and smiling at all times is really tiring.

When I came to the Imperial Garden, the emperor and queen had already sat down, and the queen was surrounded by Ruan Guifei. The Queen Mother worships the Buddha all the year round and doesn't like this kind of excitement, so she didn't come.

Next to Ruan Guifei, sat the scarlet princess she saw when she entered the palace for the first time to participate in the selection of concubines. She is still as beautiful and noble as ever.

It's just that today's Scarlet Dance is not very good, and his face is a little pale.

She sat beside Ruan Guifei with a smile and saw several brothers coming. Quickly get up and salute them one by one.

The family banquet was naturally attended by the princess and the prince.

To the left of the emperor's table, there was another table, all of which were young princesses and princesses, who were looked after by the nurse.

Eight princes were seated at the main table.

Shen Ya and the others were in a group, and Concubine Zhen took them to another table. This table. All are the emperor's daughters-in-law.

"Goya! Geya! As soon as Shen Ya sat down, she heard someone calling her. raised his head and followed the prestige, it turned out to be Uncle Zhao's sister, Zhao Xin. Pointed out to the four princes as concubines.

Meet acquaintances. Shen Ya was very happy in her heart, she could finally find someone to talk to in this strange place.

Zhao Xin squeezed over from the concubines, came to Shen Ya, and sat down with a smile.

"Long time no see." Zhao Xin saw Shen Ya. Obviously happy too, the smile on his face was especially bright.

She has an intimate relationship with Shen Ya. made some princesses not far away unhappy.

"Yo, when did Concubine Xin have such a good relationship with Concubine Duan? It's a surprise. ”

The person who said this was the fifth princess and concubine - Chunyan, who had always been friendly with Duan Qingya and Ruan Beauty. She remembered that Zhao Xin also had a good relationship with her.

I only heard the beautiful woman snort coldly, and then turned her head to Duan Qingya on the side and said, "Concubine Qing, did you say?" ”

Duan Qingya sneered and did not answer.

Zhao Xin didn't pay attention to Chunyan's sarcasm, and still chatted with Shen Ya with a smile, as if he hadn't heard Concubine Yan's sarcasm.

The palace ladies rushed out and put the delicacies and wine on the table.

For a while, the table was staggered, and few people spoke again. Only occasionally there is a cough or two.

The palace is very strict in dining etiquette, and if someone says a word, they will also be reprimanded as rude and uncultivated. So no matter how much Concubine Yan and Concubine Qing want to ridicule Shen Ya and Zhao Xin, they can't do it at this moment.

Full of wine and food, when everyone finished eating and rinsing, the palace maids put fragrant tea.

While drinking tea, everyone began to chat in a leisurely manner.

Shen Ya's table, close to the main table, heard Zhou Zong laughing with a few princes, laughing from time to time, and seemed to be in a good mood.

I don't know if Zhou Zong still has the idea of becoming a monk this week.

Before asking the prince to get married and start a family as soon as possible, Shen Ya once thought that the emperor must have encountered something or wanted to make arrangements, so he would do so, but now it seems that whether it is Zhou Zong, or the entire palace, or just in Kyoto, this period of time seems to be very peaceful. There was no movement at all.

Could this be the calm before the storm? Shen Ya thought wildly.

"Hahaha, eighth, now you are alone before you start a family. Look at the seventh brother, as soon as he marries, he will marry two. Today, I can see that the seventh brother is very gentle to his younger siblings, where is it as cold as a wood on weekdays. "It was Zhao Kuang, the third prince, who made fun of Zhao Jin.

When the people at the table heard this, they all burst out laughing.

The people at the other tables also pursed their lips and laughed. On the contrary, it was Zhao Jin, as if he hadn't heard everyone make fun of him, and drank tea calmly.

Shen Ya's table, when Li Shuyan heard that, her face turned red to the base of her neck, afraid that others would not know that Zhao Jin was holding her today.

"Look, everyone, this Sister Shu's face is really red. Presumably, what His Royal Highness is hugging today is Sister Shu. Concubine Yan's eyes were sharp, and when she saw Concubine Shu's face flushing, she hurriedly smiled and quipped.

The women at the table laughed.

"Chunyan, if you laugh again, I will ignore you in the future." Li Shuyan blushed, raised his head and glared at Concubine Yan hatefully.

Concubine Yan pretended to be scared and said, "I won't say it, I won't say it." Anyway, with the talent and appearance of our sister Concubine Shu, the prince must like it very much. Unlike some people, even if they marry the prince as a father, they will not attract like. ”

After speaking, Concubine Yan glanced at Shen Ya with a sneer.

The corners of Duan Qingya's mouth were also coldly hooked.
