Chapter 176

The crown prince was coquettish and cheating, and finally got his hand and got his wish. In the red tent, after some lingering, the sweaty expression was drunk, and the crown prince kissed her with a sad face, "Little baby, nine big." ”——

It's so bad to admit the Nine Greats! hit him twice with hatred, he had no strength, and of course he couldn't hurt him, "Little junior sister hurts me, and she is reluctant to hit me." He smiled proudly, hugged him in his arms and kissed her for a while, and fell asleep hugging each other.

The next morning, the crown prince got up early and left the East Palace refreshed. The little frustration and disappointment he had had last night had been forgotten by him and would no longer be remembered.

It was the height of summer, the lotus flowers in the palace garden were blooming just right, and Queen Zhang planned to invite the eldest princess of Songning, the eldest princess of Longqing, the eldest princess of Xiping and others to enter the palace to enjoy the lotus. This is a party that happens every summer, and it is not unusual, but in previous years, the princess and princess and their relatives were invited to the palace, but this year it has changed. Because Empress Zhang's sister-in-law Cao was deposed as a concubine and was not allowed to enter the palace for life, Empress Zhang felt that entering the palace in Jinxiang Bofu would only embarrass her, so she crossed the Zhang family off the list. Since the royal family's family was not invited, the princess's family was naturally not invited, and the relatives were excluded from this lotus banquet. "Just the princesses and princesses." Empress Zhang thought helplessly.

She didn't want to do this either, but the Zhang family was first demoted from the Jinxiang Hou Mansion to the Jinxiang Bofu, and then the Jinxiang Bo's wife Cao was deposed as a concubine, and the Zhang family lost face. In the summer, Queen Zhang really didn't want the nephews and daughters-in-law of the Zhang family to enter the palace, and let the princesses and princesses see the jokes of the Zhang family.

"When I become the queen mother one day, I will not only restore the title of the Zhang family, but also rise and become a duke!" Empress Zhang's only hope is pinned on the future.

She ordered the chamberlain to summon her, and Wen Yan told her about the lotus feast, "...... When the time comes, you will bring Xiao Zhengyang over and be loose with your aunts, aunts, and sisters for a day. ”

Empress Zhang's words were natural, gentle and kind, she didn't think much about it, she just felt that since there was a banquet in the palace, of course the crown princess had to attend; Since the crown princess is here, of course Xiao Zhengyang is also here. It's a natural thing to do.

Smile, "You ordered, I must come." Whether the imperial grandson can accompany him, but you can't be the master, and I can't be the master, this is to ask my father and His Majesty. The queen mother, he is the grandson of the emperor. ”

If Xiao Zhengzheng is only the eldest son of the East Palace, it is normal for Empress Zhang to order this. But Xiao Zhengzheng has already sealed the crown grandson, and Empress Zhang's order is obviously out of place and has been overstepped. The crown prince is the official crown prince, and how the prince's schedule is arranged, Empress Zhang can't be the master.

Empress Zhang was seriously warned by the emperor, and she didn't dare to put on a mother-in-law stand in front of her. After being refuted, she was stunned, "I didn't think of this, Xiao Zhengyang is still a child." "He's usually under your control, but I asked you to bring him to a banquet?

smiled politely, "Although he is still a child, he already has the title of the emperor's grandson, and he is the prince of the country." Don't worry, when I see His Majesty the Emperor, I will ask for instructions in person. Empress Zhang thought for a while and said with a smile: "Your Majesty has a lot of opportunities, how busy he is, there is no need to bother him about the trivial matters of the banquet." Then you can come alone. Meek agreed, "Yes, Queen Mother." ”

I really want to tell Empress Zhang, if you let me come alone, you also want to bother His Majesty the Emperor, because I can't see Xiao Zhengzheng for most of the day, and I want to entrust him to be the temporary guardian. However, forget it, Empress Zhang won't understand, she doesn't know what Lu Dao Xiaozheng means to the emperor's father, and she doesn't know what kind of feelings Lu Dao, an emperor who is already in his twilight years, will have for the imperial grandson who is only a few months old. Otherwise, she would not have said the words of Fang Cai and made Xiao Zheng an ordinary imperial grandson.

According to Queen Zhang's temperament, I really want to say a few words in passing, "Wouldn't it be lonely for you to come alone?" If there are many concubines in the East Palace, you can bring three or five casually, and it will be lively. However, she can only hide this from the bottom of her heart, and she can't say it. Although Queen Zhang wants to be a mother-in-law, she cherishes life more and cherishes the status of this queen.

"One day, I will become the queen mother...... Queen Zhang can only comfort herself with this.

Seeing that Queen Zhang had no other instructions, she politely retired.

Empress Zhang was sullen for a moment, reached out and picked up the list of guests for the banquet and looked at it, frowning slightly, "Why is the county lord of Qingbo not on top?" "I personally picked up the pen and added the name of the county lord of Qingbo.

She was named the county lord, and she was also a clan woman, and she was eligible to participate in this lotus appreciation party.

The chamberlain quickly went to the Linjiang Marquis Mansion to spread the queen's words, and in front of Mrs. Tai and Qiu's family, he told the day and hour of the banquet, and ordered Chen Lingwei to go on time, "This is a royal gathering, only the royal family members are present, and you can't take it lightly." Chen Lingwei was radiant after hearing this, and agreed with surprise and joy, "Yes, don't dare to slack off, you will be on time." Mrs. Tai and Qiu also thanked them with smiles, and the maid stuffed a heavy purse into the waiter, and sent the waiter away respectfully and with a smile on her face.

Mrs. Tai couldn't close her mouth happily, "Ah Wei has a chance, and she can go to the palace to have a banquet with the concubines and princesses." Awei, although you are not as good as the princesses now, you are much more noble. Qiu Shipi smiled and didn't smile, "Yes, it's much more noble." When you arrive in the palace, please be cautious in your words and deeds, and don't cause trouble to the Linjiang Marquis. Chen Lingwei was full of joy, no matter what Qiu Shi said, whether the tone was sarcastic or not, she agreed with a smile. Mrs. Tai didn't follow, "Ah Wei is very sensible, how can she cause trouble for the Linjiang Hou Mansion?" Qiu Shi faintly, "I'm just reminding you in vain." Chen Lingwei didn't like to watch them fight, so she went back to the room under the pretext of tidying up her clothes and jewelry.

"I can go to the princesses' party!" Chen Lingwei turned around a few times, and her long skirt danced, which was very good-looking. The maid reminded her, "Second Miss, for such an important gathering, you should quickly pick out your clothes and jewelry, and dress up." Chen Lingwei felt reasonable, and stopped turning in circles, stopped, ordered the maid to open the wardrobe, and picked up the clothes with great interest, "What am I wearing?" What do I wear to be good? ”

Mrs. Tai stopped fighting with Qiu, and forced Qiu's to open a warehouse, take out the good materials treasured by the Hou Mansion to make new clothes for Chen Lingwei, and then go to the jewelry store to pick out the latest style of jewelry. Qiu Shi was disdainful in his heart, "Old Fengjun, don't you have enough private rooms?" If you want to hurt this girl, you should take out your own private room, just press me what's the matter. Even so, I also knew that Chen Lingwei entered the palace to be the face of the Hou Mansion in Linjiang, and he still took out the best materials of the Hou Mansion, and ordered the sewing room to work day and night, and made clothes suitable for Chen Lingwei, and went to a familiar jewelry store to pick out a jasper hairpin with an excellent water head for Chen Lingwei, and a pair of old pit glass planted with green water bracelets. In summer, from time to time, gold jewelry is worn, and jade jewelry is worn.

Seeing her like this, Mrs. Tai was a little satisfied, and no longer deliberately picky, "You have the appearance of a grandmother like this." Qiu's heart was slightly sunny, "What do you know?" It's going to be a toss. ”

Chen Lingyun was originally just a concubine of the Hou Mansion who had a little bit of talent, so he didn't have to worry about the Qiu family. After saving the thirteen princes but giving the reward to his sister, he got a good reputation, "this young man is affectionate, friendly and thoughtful with his mother's sister", and even the civil officials who had always looked down on the guards began to praise him. The concubine has a good reputation, and Qiu's mother-in-law is immediately vigilant, "At this time, you can't be grabbed by someone and tell the truth", and her words and deeds are extra cautious and cautious. Chen Lingwei's clothes and jewelry, she naturally refused to carve them.

Qiu prepared new clothes and new jewelry for Chen Lingwei, but Chen Lingyun took a lot of trouble and invited an old adult from the palace from the suburbs of Beijing to make up for Chen Lingwei's etiquette in the palace. Chen Lingwei is not stupid, she learns quickly, although she only learned from this old adult mother for a day or two, she has also benefited a lot.

"Ah Wei, in fact, you are in the name of a county lord, and marrying your brother's robe in the former army is also a good destination. If you don't look down on such family affairs, you must climb high, you must pay attention to this banquet one after another, show your gentleness and courtesy, and let those princesses and ladies of wealthy families be willing to marry you as a daughter-in-law. Chen Lingyun explained.

"Zhilu Dao, brother, I know Lu Dao." Chen Lingwei's mind was full of beautiful new clothes and graceful and elegant princesses, and she didn't even think much about it. However, whatever her brother said, she just nodded obediently.

"It's better to see her less." Chen Lingyun was silent for a moment, and then explained.

"I won't go often, brother, don't worry." Chen Lingwei said worriedly: "She always likes to talk about how good it is to be a concubine, as if if I don't enter the palace to be a concubine, I am sorry for my natural beauty." I listened and listened, and I wanted to slip away. "His Majesty the Emperor is old, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince only guards the crown princess, where do you let me go to be a concubine? In a dream.

Chen Lingyun smiled bitterly. She was originally like a fish in water in the backyard of the Linjiang Hou Mansion, but when Qiu Guifei was favored, the Qiu family had the confidence and quietly dealt with her. She was probably inspired by this, and she always felt that the favorite concubine in the palace was too spirited, and her family also followed the chicken dog to heaven.

"Life in the palace is good? I actually want to send Ah Wei to that kind of place. Chen Lingyun shook his head disapprovingly.

"That, she also asked me to come, when will you marry a wife, when will you split up, and when will you pick her up." Chen Lingwei remembered her explanation and asked for her.

"Far from it." Chen Lingyun said briefly.

Qiu's own son is still studying in Guozijian, how can he let his eldest son leave? If the Linjiang Marquis Mansion is not separated for a day, it will be impossible for him to pick her up.

Chen Lingwei stuck out her tongue, "I brought the words." The maid took out the newly made garments and looked at them with admiration. Chen Lingyun saw her coquettish appearance, smiled slightly, and patted her kindly, "Ah Wei, do it yourself." Chen Lingwei didn't look back, and agreed casually.

When the day came, Chen Lingwei dressed up carefully, said goodbye to Mrs. Tai and Qiu, and happily got into the carriage. The royal gathering is exciting to think about.

took Xiao Zhengzheng out and sent him to Qianqing Palace, "Son, good baby, today you and grandfather, okay?" When the emperor heard that she was ordered to reward the lotus, he ordered Xiao Zhengzheng to be sent to the Qianqing Palace, "My Xiao Zheng is the one who does great things, and he will not entertain those princesses and princesses." Although there were palace people Fu Mu and others following, he was still not at ease, so he specially asked Second Master Pei to come too. Pei Erye watches his grandson at home all day long, and he is so familiar with children, the emperor can't do it without admiring Pei Erye at this point.

With the happy mood of "today's child is sent to the nursery, I can be lazy for half a day", Xiao Zhengzheng was sent away. Xiao Zhengzheng didn't seem to be very happy today, he refused to smile at her, he pretended to be serious with a small face, and it was still the same after seeing his grandfather and grandfather. The emperor was very satisfied, "Look, my little Zhengzheng is young, how majestic. Pei Erye looked at his baby grandson carefully and asked quietly, "You didn't bully the child, did you?" "Justice," Daddy, he's my own. "Look at your suspicious appearance, I'm not a stepmother. Pei Er Ye looked at her speechlessly, and teased his grandson softly, "Little baby, is this white jade ball good-looking?" You can put your little hand in it and grab it. He specially asked a skilled craftsman to make a blank jade ball, and Xiao Zhengzheng could put his fingers into it and grab it to play.

When he happily said goodbye to the emperor, Pei Erye, and Xiao Zhengzheng, Xiao Zhengzheng was very involved in holding this blank jade ball in his hand, and ignored her.
