Chapter 067: Gift-giving

"Back to the mainland?" Such a result was simply beyond Jian Ning's expectations, even if she never dreamed, she would be suddenly told at this time that she would return to the mainland soon.

"Yes, I guess Jin'er told you about my Binglan royal family, and now Chen has found a solution that may be solved. After discussion, Chen decided to go to the mainland before Jin'er gave birth. Because he knew that Ning Er wanted to go to the mainland to have a look, Chen decided to take you with him. Bingmo explained simply.

"Oh! If there is a way, it would be great. Jian Ning smiled sincerely and said.

They treated her very well, and Jian Ning naturally didn't want anything to happen to them, especially Bingmo. If he died, Bing Jin would be very sad.

"It's just that we need to do something else now, so we can't leave immediately." Ice Ink Road.

"It's okay, then I'll spend more time with my sister in the next few days." Jian Ning said with a smile.

The honor guard of the Tosho arrived in Kyoto at about the same time as Fengyang had expected, and arrived thirty miles outside the city of Kyoto on the morning of the third day. The natural Xiahou Yan was already sitting in the chariot of the honor guard unconsciously.

The one who came out to greet him was still the same as the previous one, it was Xiangwang Long Zening.

That night, Long Zeye set up a banquet in Ningxiangzhai to wash the dust for Xiahou Yan.

Except for the Empress Dowager who said that she was ill and did not attend, almost all the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty arrived. What surprised everyone was that under such circumstances, the emperor was the one who led Jian Ning into the palace in a grand manner, not the queen.

In fact, everyone knows that the emperor favors Concubine Yi, especially after Concubine Yi's accident this time, after returning to the palace, the emperor is inseparable from her. On weekdays, the ministers have turned a blind eye to the past, after all, the emperor has not done anything to mislead the country.

But today. Doing this in front of the prince of Dongshang was undoubtedly a slap in the face of the queen, and also a slap in the face of Dongshang.

For a while, the hall became extremely quiet, and everyone held their breath, their eyes wandering between the emperor and Prince Yan.

In this tense atmosphere, a slightly apologetic shallow voice sounded a little abruptly: "I'm sorry everyone, there is something delayed in this palace!" So I asked the emperor and Concubine Yi's sister to come over first. ”

Everyone's attention was immediately drawn to this sound. I saw that he was wearing a bright yellow phoenix robe. Xiahou Leling, who was wearing a phoenix crown, came slowly under the false support of Feng Zi. The natural elegance and innate nobility once again amazed everyone's attention.

Many ministers have never seen this queen since the emperor's wedding, and now they feel more beautiful than they did at the beginning.

"The concubine has seen the emperor." Le Ling walked to the front of the hall. After Ying Ying bowed to Long Zeye, she blessed her body in the direction of Xiahou Yan and said, "Brother Huang is fine." ”

"Take a seat, Queen." Long Zeye said without being salty.

"Open to dinner! Singing, dancing and dancing! "Wait until everyone is seated. Fan Chengfu stepped forward and said loudly.

All of a sudden, the atmosphere in the hall changed to a different one, and it seemed that no one remembered what had happened before.

Wait until after three rounds of drinking. Xiahou Yan raised his glass and got up, and said to Long Zeye and Jian Ning: "Your Majesty, this palace heard that Concubine Yi Niangniang disappeared some time ago, and she only returned to the palace recently. So I specially prepared a small gift for Concubine Yi to suppress the shock. I also hope that Concubine Yi will smile. ”

Long Zeye looked at the unknown smile on Xiahou Yan's face and was extremely uncomfortable, others didn't know what his Xiahou Yan'an cared about, but he knew that it must not be a good thing. Just rush to the outside of the garden a few days ago. Long Zeye knew that Xiahou Yan seemed to have an unusual purpose for Jian Ning.

"Prince Yan is polite, but it was just a small accident. How did it reach Prince Yan's ears? However, since Prince Yan has prepared a gift, it is difficult to refuse if he wants to come to Ning'er. Long Zeye's hand had always been on Jian Ning's hand, reassuring her.

Hearing this, Xiahou Yan turned around and took a wooden box from Feng Yang's hand and handed it to Fan Chengfu.

"This gift is not a valuable thing, but it looks like it is suitable for Concubine Yi, so I want to give it away, just a thought, and I hope that Concubine Yi will not dislike it." Xiahou Yan said.

When everyone heard this, they only thought that Xiahou Yan was modest, after all, the things given by a prince in a dignified manner, no matter how inconspicuous they were, were still valuable treasures.

But when everyone was in this mood and ready to see what treasures were in this wooden box, they saw that Concubine Yi just took out an ordinary silver hairpin from the wooden box. There is nothing special on the hairpin, the most obvious is just the delicately carved camellia.

But even so, the price of this hairpin itself is definitely not high, and it can even be said unceremoniously that such a hairpin can only be regarded as a medium color in several relatively large jewelry stores in Kyoto, and it really doesn't look like something that Prince Yan will give away.

For a while, everyone was disappointed in addition to surprise.

Ai Duoer looked at the hairpin in her hand repeatedly, and finally determined that it was just an ordinary silver hairpin. And such a hairpin, even when she was still in the Prime Minister's Mansion, was definitely not eye-catching. She even wondered if the prince of the Dongshang was deliberately trying to humiliate her.

But in front of the civil and military officials, Ai Duoer could only try her best to pretend to be grateful, and said with a smile: "This palace has thanked Prince Yan for the gift here, the hairpin is very delicate and beautiful." ”

When Xiahou Yan heard this, she smiled and said, "It's good if you don't dislike it." ”

In the following time, Xiahou Yan seemed to be in a good mood, and several ministers of Yuan Chu came to toast, and he drank it very simply.

In fact, just now, before Jian Ning opened the wooden box, Xiahou Yan's eyes stared at her expression without blinking, for fear of missing something.

He saw Jian Ning's momentary confusion when he opened the wooden box, and then the disappointment hidden in his eyes

But no matter how many expressions Jian Ning had after opening this wooden box, none of them had the expressions that Xiahou Yan wanted to see. This made Xiahou Yan more happy than a little disappointed and surprised. Because he finally verified the doubts in his heart.

In the middle of the banquet, Xiahou Yan had some conversations with Long Zeye on behalf of Dongshang about Leling's affairs, but it was obvious that the two of them were just going through the procedure.

From the beginning to the end, Leling always maintained a smile on her face, and only responded politely to the conversation between the two sides. She is a smart person, and naturally understands that their purpose is no longer this, and these are just perfunctory Manchu civil and military affairs.

In order to show his concern for the queen, Long Zeye also promised the queen to get together alone with Xiahou Yan on a certain day to relieve her longing for her homeland.

After returning to the post house, Feng Yang handed over a delicate small wooden box to Xiahou Yan's hands. He asked a little strangely: "Master, why are you suddenly so anxious to go to the jewelry store to make a hairpin that is exactly the same as the hairpin in your hand?" (To be continued) R640
