Tea ceremony
After a night of entanglement on the wedding night, Liu Yuxin and Zhao Mingxuan were still late the next day. The two got up in a hurry, didn't even have time to eat breakfast, and hurried all the way to the palace.
"It's all your fault." Liu Yuxin whispered angrily at Zhao Mingxuan.
At this time, Zhao Mingxuan also felt that he was a little too much, if he hadn't been blindly entangled today, he would not have arrived in the palace at this point, the sun had risen at this time, and the warm sunlight shone comfortably on his body, which made people feel physically and mentally happy, but Liu Yuxin at this time did not have that mood to feel the warm sunshine, and what he was worried about was how the queen mother would make things difficult for her for a while.
The old woman had never looked at him from beginning to end, and she usually tried all kinds of ways to make things difficult, not to mention that today she gave someone a handle automatically, how could they not make good use of it.
"King Gong and Princess Gong have arrived." The eunuch's sharp voice sounded for a moment, which startled Liu Yuxin, and his whole nerves were tensed, almost to the point of being in the wind.
Standing at the door, taking a few deep breaths, Liu Yuxin calmed down her nervousness, and then raised what she thought was the sweetest smile for herself. Then he entered the hall with Zhao Mingxuan.
At this time, in the queen mother's bedroom, there were scorching figures, or sitting and standing everywhere, and people were talking softly to each other, "This King Gong and Wang Hao are really in love." You see how long it has been and it hasn't come yet, so it's embarrassing to have so many elders waiting for them here. A shrill female voice rang out.
"People are newlyweds, and besides, they are deeply favored by the emperor, so they naturally want to..."
"Lady Niangniang, that's not what you said. This can't be pampered! ”
"Concubine Rong, now Concubine Xian is deeply favored by the emperor, and it is not too much for King Gong to have something." Concubine Shu is obviously sowing discord.
"This is the royal and most well-behaved place in the world. This royal rule is allowed to be broken by such ignorant children at will. An old voice. With anger sounded in the temple.
"Fifth prince, King Gong is the emperor's son, and he is the minister of our Jin Kingdom, and the ancestors have those rules, or they are not respected." It's another provocation, Liu Yuxin heard this, and her eyes darkened. His eyes narrowed, and he already had a plan in his heart.
"Who has such a great ability, put such a big hat on this king, this king's head is very small, but he doesn't have the ability to bring such a big hat, who thinks this hat is suitable, he can go casually, but don't remember not to pull us two husbands and wives, we know very well, how big our heads are. I also know how big a hat I can wear, but I don't have the ambition like yours. Zhao Mingxuan's face was blue, and his face was full of haze. It's just a blink of an eye, when the two of them appeared in front of everyone, his face was already hanging, a warm smile, and there was still the ridicule and condensation just now.
"The emperor has arrived, and the queen mother has arrived." The eunuch's shrill voice came from outside the door again.
"Long live my emperor, long live long live." Everyone in the audience fell to their knees, their hands lying on their heads against the floor in front of them. The expression is extremely strict and pious.
"Queen Mother. Chitose, Chitose. Chichitose. ”
The emperor and the queen mother, mother and son, sat hand in hand on the main seat in the palace.
"Get up, it's a family feast today. You don't have to be muddy. The emperor stretched out his hands in front of him and shouted to everyone to get up.
"Today is the first day after the new marriage of the emperor Zhao Qianxin, yesterday I ordered the emperor to come to the palace later today, but I didn't expect that I and the queen mother were late." Emperor Zhao Yi said with a smile on his face.
"The mourning family also said that they would come early tonight, but the emperor said that King Gong's child would serve tea later. Unexpectedly, the two of them arrived early today. It seems that it is the mourning family and the emperor who are going to make jokes today. The Queen Mother said happily, the expression on her face was flawless.
"Queen Mother, look at what you said, you are the Queen Mother of our Jin Kingdom, the woman with the highest status in our Jin Kingdom, who dares to laugh at you." Concubine Shu said with a flawless smile.
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this, today is a good day for the two children Qianxin and Yuxin, this morning the emperor has put Liu Yuxin's name on the family tree.
"Isn't this daughter-in-law's name not on the family tree until the first child is full moon?" Rong Concubine interjected. Originally, there was a family gathering like this, but who let the family have an aunt who is the queen mother and a cousin who is the queen.
"Originally, it was such a family rule, but now Liu Yuxin is a great hero of our country, and naturally a great hero of our Zhao family, and now she is married to Qianxin as a princess, so it shouldn't be too much to let her enter the family tree." The emperor was very unhappy that someone questioned his decision, but in order to convince everyone, he still reluctantly and patiently explained.
"Okay, it's not too early, let's let Yuxin serve tea first." The queen saw that the emperor's face was unhappy, and reminded everyone at the right time.
The palace maid first put a soft cushion in front of the emperor and the queen mother. In such a centralized state, all the activities of a monarch, the monarch of a country, that will be supreme. Therefore, at all times, on all occasions, he is the supreme and absolute being.
Liu Yuxin knelt on the cushion placed in front of the emperor, and gently took the teacup handed over by the palace maid, "Father, please drink tea."
"Hmm." The emperor picked up the tea bowl handed by Liu Yuxin, took a sip, and put a jade carved smiling Buddha pendant into the tray that Liu Yuxin was carrying. "Father, I know that you don't want anything, and you don't lack anything, and here today, my father only wishes you a hundred years of happiness and happiness." The Emperor's eyes were filled with anticipation.
"Please drink tea for the Queen Mother." Liu Yuxin once again knelt respectfully in front of the Queen Mother, held the tray steadily, held it high in front of her, and invited the Queen Mother to drink tea.
"Hmm." The Queen Mother didn't say anything, just picked up the teacup on the tray in Liu Yuxin's hand, took a sip, put the teacup in her hand back on the tray, took a pair of ruby bracelets from the palace maid behind her, and put them in the tray gently. Then he said, "You are now the daughter-in-law of my Zhao family, and you should be the most important person with my Zhao family, and now you are the princess of a prince, you should carefully consider everything you do in the future, but don't lose it, our royal face, otherwise I won't spare you at that time." Although the Queen Mother said that she didn't speak harshly, she was already strict enough, and there was no smile on her face, but it made people feel very gloomy.
"Yes, thank you for the teachings of the imperial grandmother, and the granddaughter-in-law remembered." Liu Yuxin's attitude is still respectful, her back is very straight without the slightest grovel, she does not feel humble at this time, and she does not think that she is inferior to other people. She has her own dignity and pride, and that doesn't change for anyone.
"Invite the queen to tea." Liu Yuxin didn't stay too much in front of the Queen Mother, and then went to complete her next task, that's right, she took today's tea ceremony as a task to complete, for this kind of family full of tricks, she really doesn't have much good feelings. The qiē I am doing now is just completing the task.
"Yes, good." The queen didn't say anything, but bought a jade bracelet from her hand and put it on the tray, hoping that the process would be completed quickly so that everyone could be relieved.
"Invite the Imperial Mother to tea." This time, the smile on Liu Yuxin's face was much more sincere, and her tone was much lighter than the perfunctory thing just now.
"Well, the mother concubine has nothing to give, this is the dowry that my grandfather gave me when I got married, and now the two of you have become relatives, I will give you these things today!" Concubine Luo Xintong looked kind, told Liu Yuxin in a humbling voice, and then wrote all her dowry list to Liu Yuxin.
Concubine Xian's behavior shocked everyone present, and everyone present did not expect that Concubine Xian Luo Xintong would give all her net worth to Liu Yuxin.
"Mother, I don't need these things, you know." Liu Yuxin was very moved when she saw her mother-in-law's actions, but for these things outside her body, she had too much and it was not uncommon, but her mother-in-law's full love for herself made her very moved.
"The mother concubine knows that you don't lack these things, but the elder doesn't dare to resign, you should understand this sentence. So don't say anything, you just need to put these things away and live a good life with Xuan'er in the future. Luo Xintong said with a deliberate tiger face.
"Thank you, Princess." Liu Yuxin knew that she couldn't refuse, so she could only take it quietly. But she had another idea in her heart, and he saved these things for the future concubine Luo Xintong to need.
"Invite the Five Emperor Uncles and the Five Imperial Concubines to tea." The tea ceremony continued, and Liu Yuxin also took it seriously and carefully, and completed it according to the instructions of the palace maid, without the slightest impatience.
"In the future, you still have to follow the three obedience and four virtues at home, and you must abide by the women's way, especially in the handling of some things, you should still focus on the meaning of your man, after all, you are the descendants of our Zhao family, and the supreme family in this country, no matter what you do in the future, you must think twice, do not act willfully, act at will, you go out, you represent not only yourself, you represent the face of our Zhao family, it is our country..." It seems that Liu Yuxin and Zhao Mingxuan were late this morning, so that Liu Yuxin behaved here!
“……”
Fortunately, the emperor was present at today's tea ceremony, and no one dared to come out and stir up trouble in this life. It all ended in the relationship between everyone and Lele, and it was only when he left the palace gate that Liu Yuxin was completely relieved. At this time, she collapsed on Zhao Mingxuan's body without any image, and there was no discomfort and discomfort, it seemed that his body and mind had accepted Zhao Mingxuan a long time ago.
