Chapter VIII: Identity
Waiting for Ren Jieyu and Mu Guifei to take a seat. The emperor swept around the people in the hall and said loudly, "You don't have to be too restrained, I summoned you here today, one is to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival, and the other is to celebrate my Dafu's Jiangshan Sheji." He paused, "The grandson Fengyi, Huimin, benevolence and filial piety, is worthy of the position of the crown prince." I am going to crown him the crown prince and hold a canonization ceremony on a certain date, what do you think? ”
In fact, it's just a formality. /
The grandson has been dealing with government affairs for a long time, and with several cabinet elders coming to the government one after another, the ministers have already understood a little bit in their hearts.
Taifu Xie An stood up first, saluted, and said, "The emperor declares." "Taisun is his proud student, and he naturally has to support him.
The emperor touched his beard a little proudly, and clapped his hands and said, "Then it's decided, let's change my mouth from today, and the canonization ceremony will be arranged in a month." Ministry of Rites, can you have a problem? The Ministry of Rites Shangshu smiled and said, "I must not dare to miss the canonization ceremony of His Royal Highness the Prince." "Even if a month is definitely not enough, the emperor will not be able to change his day, maybe he will be disadvantaged, in this case, it is better to come down from the beginning. It's a big deal.
The Emperor hummed, then waved his hand, "Let's begin." ”
The palace people rushed in with vegetables and fish.
The emperor and empress were served with the same dishes as before, but the rest of the people were served with dishes prepared by the prefectures.
The emperor was surprised and asked the empress, "Who came up with this idea?" It's kind of interesting to watch. ”
The queen gave him a chopstick dish and said with a smile, "The concubine asked the emperor to give the prince the Zhuang family, does the emperor still remember?" ”
Of course, the emperor remembered that the queen said that the crown princess and the prince could not talk together, so she asked herself to give a family girl to the prince, and the one who gave it was the Zhuang family.
What's more, her grandfather's credit is credited here.
The emperor thought for a while, pointed to a pearl jade soup and an autumn water leaf on the table, and said, "Yuan Zhong, this pearl jade soup is given to the crown princess, and the autumn water leaf is given to the Zhuang family." You personally brought it to me and encouraged her. ”
Yuan Zhong responded with a smile, let the little apprentice take the dishes, and followed him. He came to the crown princess's banquet and arched his hand, "The slave has seen Niangniang." ”
The crown princess raised her hand and helped him down, "The original father-in-law is more polite", Yuan Zhong is an old man who serves the emperor, and the princess will give him a little thin noodles.
Yuan Zhong smiled and asked people to bring the dishes up, "The emperor gave the two masters a meal, a pearl jade soup, given to the crown princess, and an autumn water leaf, given to the master of the village." The emperor liked the master's idea very much, and asked the servant to tell him. ”
The crown princess and Zhuang Zhao both stood up and blessed the upper position.
After sitting down, I listened to Zhang Biyu say, "The emperor seems to like Sister Zhuang very much." ”
The crown princess was still quite afraid of the emperor, and raised her eyebrows when she heard this, "What kind of place is this, dare to say it." ”
However, in the end, it is the friendship of fellow villagers, Zhang Biyu has always been courteous, and the crown princess did not criticize him too much.
The so-called autumn leaves are actually ordinary blanched vegetables, but after some fiddling with the imperial chef, they look very chic. Zhuang Zhao tasted it, and it was burned with a different flavor.
The emperor's food must be eaten up, and Zhuang Zhao ate it slowly, one bite at a time. Fortunately, the more delicate the dish, the smaller the amount, and Zhuang Zhao can still eat it.
Halfway through the banquet, the music girls in Liyuan had just opened their voices and sang the sentence "Remember the Yuan season, a thousand doors are immediate, and look at the remnants of snow on the golden slope", when they heard an exclamation from the concubine.
Everyone looked over and saw Ren Jieyu fall on the palace maid behind her with a pale face, and Mu Guifei looked panicked.
"What's going on?" The emperor's face was blue, and when he saw the curious gazes below, he only felt that his face had been lost.
Mu Guifei has been serving the emperor for so long, and she can't see his affection. She was a little worried in her heart, and she didn't dare to say that she would ask for a doctor, so she said directly, "Look at my sister as if she has a body, she may be tired today." "I hope to appease the emperor's anger.
The queen took over the conversation and praised Ren Jieyu first, "This is a good thing, how long has there been no good news in the palace?" If she really has a body, Ren Jieyu will make a lot of contributions. This palace wants to reward her well. She looked sideways at the emperor, "Your Majesty, the hall is noisy, it is better to let someone help Ren Jieyu to the side hall, and ask the imperial doctor to take a look." ”
The emperor's face was indeed much more relaxed.
At this age, the concubine can still get pregnant, which is the best affirmation of his body.
He said with a smile, "Just do what the queen said, Xuantai Hospital sentenced Yu Han Temple to come to Ren Jieyu to diagnose the pulse." ”
The ministers below congratulated one by one, and said, "The spirit of the emperor's dragon and horse, the ministers are beyond the reach of the dust." That said, "The emperor is brave and very human." ”
The emperor was very comfortable, patting his legs and laughing.
The queen took a sip of wine and wiped her mouth to hide the smile from her lips.
Yu Han Temple hurried over with a medicine box, and after making a salute, he went to the side hall to diagnose Ren Jieyu's pulse.
At this time, the song in the hall had been sung, and the favorite Hu Xuan dance was changed, which brought the atmosphere to **.
The woman in red showed a slender waist and twisted happily to the sound of the drums. The plain hand with the silver bell twisted the corner of the red yarn to cover the red lips, revealing a pair of amorous eyes, glancing up from time to time.
The emperor was bent on remembering the old man, and the god had already flown to the side hall, where would he pay attention to a dancing girl.
But the prince's slender fingers beat the beat, and he looked at it with relish.
Zhuang Zhao finished eating, took a sip of rose dew, and took a mint pill to suppress the taste in his mouth.
Zhang Biyu, who was eating fish and meat next to her, smelled the smell of mint, but covered her mouth and retched.
The crown princess and Mama Lin heard the voice and looked at it at the same time. Mama Lin asked Qingqing, "How do you serve your master, is there anything on this table that your master can't eat?" There was a hint of majesty in the words, in the end, it was the grandmother next to the queen, and the momentum was still quite bluffing.
Qingqing naturally understood the meaning of Mama Lin's words, avoided Zhang Biyu's eyes, and replied quickly, "Niangniang forgive me, my master hasn't come to change this month, it should be for this." ”
The crown princess looked at Zhang Biyu with a somewhat panicked look, and laughed out loud, "This is a good thing, why is my sister so afraid?" I don't know what I'm going to do to you. ”
Mama Lin breathed a sigh of relief, she told a lot of examples of the harem in front of the crown princess these days, and it can be seen that she listened to it.
The crown princess took a sip of herbal tea to reduce the fire, put down the cup and said, "I will invite the imperial doctor to take a look later, if it is true, let the emperor and the queen know that in the end, call me a concubine, and let him show his face in front of the elders." ”
Mama Lin is right, it is important to ask the prince to give birth to an heir first. No matter who Mr. is, he will not be able to surpass her children in the future. Let them help their sons first.
Zhang Biyu's body trembled, covering her mouth and not daring to speak.
Fortunately, everyone lowered their voices to speak, but no one noticed the movement.
Zhuang Zhao bit hard and crushed the mint pill. The smell of rushing people came out, and people suddenly became much more sober.
You still have to be steady, you have no foundation in the East Palace now, and you really can't be in a hurry. She let out a breath and calmed down again.
It took a while for a palace maid to come out of the side hall, and she hurried to the bottom of the stairs with her head down.
The emperor beckoned to Yuan Zhong and motioned for him to go to the maidservant's side, "Go and listen to what the imperial doctor has to say." ”
Yuan Zhong hunched down, and after listening to two sentences, the smile on his face froze. He sent the palace maid, walked quickly to the emperor's side, leaned into his ear and whispered the palace maid's words.
The queen faintly heard only a sentence of "I can't touch it", and saw the emperor throw a wine glass downward, stood up angrily, and went to the side hall.
The people below were a little frightened when they saw the emperor suddenly attack. In particular, the dancing girl knelt on the spot and trembled, which was very pitiful.
The queen smiled dignifiedly, "Okay, it's not a big deal, keep jumping." ”
Everyone looked at each other.
The music started again, and the dancers continued to dance, but no one in the hall dared to speak freely.
The crown prince glanced at the princess's side, and the princess looked at him inquiringly, and there was a trace of timidity in her eyes. However, Zhuang Zhao's face was not surprised, which made the prince very satisfied.
When the emperor came to the side hall, he didn't look at Ren Jieyu who was lying on the couch, and pointed to Yu Han Temple and said, "Tell me, what is the meaning of being inaccurate?" At the beginning, the queen's body for half a month, you also felt it, why can't you touch it now? "If it weren't for his divine hand, could he be the judge of the Tai Hospital?
Yu Hansi was also puzzled, he said: "Women are pregnant, and the minister has seen a lot. But like Ren Niangniang, it was the first time I met him. It is said that the slippery veins are smooth and smooth, and they should be ......"
When the emperor saw that he was finished, he interrupted him impatiently, "Don't tell me that these things are useless, you just say that you have it or not." ”
Yu Hansi lowered his head and held back a sentence for a long time: "I can't say." ”
The emperor was so angry that he directly ordered Yuan Zhongdao, "You go, give me two slaps in the face." ”
Yu Hansi smiled bitterly, closed his eyes and slapped him twice.
The emperor was still puzzled, looked at Mu Guifei with a fierce look, gritted his teeth and said, "This is what you said about being pregnant?" Do you know what the crime of bullying is? ”
The emperor slapped his big hand, and with a bang, the sturdy pineapple table was discharged with a fine line.
Mu Guifei was so frightened that she turned pale, and hurriedly knelt down and said, "The emperor is angry, and the concubine is sure that Ren Jieyu really has a child." ”
The Emperor gave her a cold look, "Are you sure?" What are you sure of? Just now, the Manchu Dynasty knew that my Jieyu was pregnant with a child, now what do you want me to do? Find someone to go out and say it's a misunderstanding, Ren is not pregnant at all? ”
The Emperor stood up and, like a sleepy beast, panted and paced two steps back and forth in the room.
"Yuan Zhong, go and invite the queen to come."
Now, I can only ask the queen to help come up with ideas.
The emperor looked at Mu Guifei who was kneeling on the ground and Ren Jieyu who was crying silently in disgust, a trace of killing intent flashed in his heart, and finally endured it. It's still important to save face first.
