Chapter 237: White Pheasant
The head of the chamberlain whispered a few words in front of the queen mother, and the people in the palace involuntarily stopped their chopsticks.
Zhen Miao is picking up a piece of quail crystal.
This is a frozen dish, and the translucent jelly is wrapped in quail meat, which is refreshing to look at.
Now that there is snow outside, the hall is as warm as spring, and Zhen Miao can't help but start.
Quietly glanced at both sides, and saw that no one was paying attention to the meal, Zhen Miao let go, ate it in a low-key manner, and then sandwiched another piece of barbecued deer breast.
The Queen Mother's face changed slightly, and everyone's hearts hung up.
When the Queen Mother suddenly got up, a woman who was too concerned forgot the chopsticks in her hand in shock.
The chopsticks fell onto the dishes, making a crisp sound, which was particularly clear in this hall where the pins could be heard, and everyone's eyes couldn't help but turn their eyes.
Zhen Miao suddenly felt burning all over her body.
Could it be that she was the one who dropped the chopsticks?
Looking down, no, the chopsticks are still there.
"Mrs. Zhen, I'm really sorry to stain your clothes." In front of everyone, the woman apologized to Zhen Miao with a red face.
Zhen Miao found that the soup was splashed on the sleeve on the left, but she was just reminiscing about the deliciousness of barbecued deer breast, and was thinking about what seasonings were used to marinate the deer breast, but she didn't react at the first time.
Everyone watched, Zhen Miao still didn't want to be embarrassed, so she elegantly put down her chopsticks and wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, before pursing her lips and smiling: "It's not in the way." ”
This move fell in the eyes of everyone, and the two people were immediately judged.
Tsk, look at the wife of the prince of the Yongjiahou Mansion, Qiao, she is so uncontrollable, she actually lost her chopsticks on this occasion, and she also stained other people's clothes, it is really a shame to throw it to a certain level.
Look at the Mrs. Shizi of the Zhenguo Mansion again, and see how calm and calm people are, their clothes are dirty, and they don't even move their eyelids. It wasn't until the other party made amends that he responded politely.
I'm afraid that if Qiao's doesn't apologize, people will assume that this incident has not happened at all.
This is the collapse of Mount Tai in front and the color does not change!
They are all Mrs. Shizi, why is this difference so big, sure enough, people have to die more than people, and goods have to be thrown away!
"Come on, please go down and change your clothes." Empress Zhao saw that everyone was staring at that side like this, and it was really unpleasant, so she spoke.
A palace lady walked over: "Mrs. Zhen, please." ”
It is indeed rude to continue to stay on such an occasion in dirty clothes, and Zhen Miao just stood up. The Queen Mother opened her mouth: "Today's banquet, that's it." ”
After speaking, he was helped away by an old woman.
The emperor's birthday banquet was only halfway through and the queen mother left, could it be that something big happened?
Could it be that something happened to the emperor?
Can't, although the emperor's health was not very good not long ago, hasn't he been more energetic recently?
Thinking about it like this, Queen Zhao couldn't stay still, and left after a few words.
Leaving everyone looking at each other, and then a buzz began. Some of the composer got up and left.
The crown princess didn't move, sweeping Zhen Miao's side without a trace.
"Mrs. Zhen, please come with the slave." That Gong'e reminded again.
Zhen Miao shook her head: "No need, since the banquet is gone." I'll just go back and change it. ”
Gong E's status is low, and when she heard Zhen Miao say this, she opened her mouth again and again, and it was difficult to persuade her again.
On the contrary, it was the wife of the Marquis of Yongjia, Qiao, who had always looked embarrassed, who opened her mouth: "Mrs. Zhen." How is this good, if you go back like this, Luo Shizi should be worried. Besides, being seen along the way is also a joke. ”
Zhen Miao looked down at the few stains on the splash, the color of the clothes she was wearing today was bright, but it was not obvious, and she smiled at the moment: "Mrs. Qiao is too polite, but she has soiled a piece of clothing, and he won't worry about anything." The stain was not very conspicuous, and no one saw it when he got out of the palace and got into the carriage. Besides, I don't really care about such a trivial matter, if others laugh or not. ”
Xindao This woman is so worried, and when she gets into the carriage and changes into spare clothes, her husband and lady may not find out.
Qiao Shi was even more surprised.
A woman enters the palace for a banquet and goes back wearing dirty clothes, but she is not afraid of being ridiculed?
You must know that this is in the palace, but whenever something unusual happens, I don't know what kind of rumors will be speculated up!
Euphemistically pointed out the meaning, Zhen Miao was a little surprised: "Mrs. Qiao, these ladies have seen how my clothes are dirty, and they will not forget them even if they change their clothes." But don't worry, I won't take the initiative to mention it when I go back. ”
Aren't all the people who can spread rumors in this hall, this Qiao's is really pitiful!
Qiao's almost spurted out a mouthful of blood, and then he reacted, isn't it, everyone who keeps an eye on the movement in the palace is here!
If the Queen Mother hadn't left the table suddenly, Zhen would have been taken to change her clothes, and if something eye-catching happened again, she would have been covered up.
But coincidentally, the banquet was dispersed like this, and Zhen had a reason not to change her clothes, so she left directly, I'm afraid that what she can't hold her breath today will spread all over tomorrow, and it will become a big joke in Beijing!
Those pair of chopsticks are really big! Qiao Shi felt a burst of regret in his heart.
Zhen Miao glanced at Qiao Shi sympathetically, and Shi Shiran left.
The crown princess withdrew her gaze, her long nails quietly pinching her palm.
Damn, she dodged it!
Thinking that she had not fulfilled the prince's entrustment, the princess's heart was pinched.
When the time comes, the prince will definitely blame her.
The crown princess walked with a heavy heart, thinking that the prince has become more and more cold these days, and she only felt that her chest was stuffy.
"Let's find out what's going on at the palace."
When Zhen Miao left the palace, she found that Luo Tianhuo was already waiting by the carriage.
The snow was still falling, and the snowflakes were swept by the wind into the collars of people's clothes.
As soon as I came out of the warm spring-like hall, I felt that it was getting colder and colder, and even the hand stove instantly froze.
"Beware of slippery roads." Luo Tianhuo put Zhen Miao into the carriage, and the two got in, and the thick door curtain fell, and they were suddenly warm again.
"What's wrong with your clothes?" Luo Tianhui's gaze fell on Zhen Miao's left arm.
Zhen Miao was impressed.
He, a man, observed so carefully!
She didn't know that Luo Tianhuo was in the palace, and she had a plan, but she couldn't control it if she didn't worry about it. I can't wait to even check the inside to rest assured.
"Someone dropped their chopsticks and accidentally spilled the soup on me."
"Who?" Luo Tianhui's face sank.
"The Lady of the Prince of Yongjiahou Mansion."
She only said that she would not take the initiative to mention it, but when her husband asked, she still had to say it.
Luo Tianhui's eyes tightened and he sneered.
The praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind, who is the mantis and who is the yellow finch, this puzzle is really interesting.
It's a pity that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was arrested first before he had time to use his means in a hurry.
"The Queen Mother dispersed halfway through the banquet, is it something happened to you over there?"
Luo Tianhuo carried the kettle placed on the small copper stove and poured a cup of tea and handed it to Zhen Miao: "I just came out and blew the wind." Take a sip of hot tea to ward off the cold. ”
Zhen Miao took the teacup and put on a posture of listening to the story.
Luo Tianhuo spoke unhurriedly: "When the prince presented his birthday today, he offered a white pheasant. ”
"White pheasant?" Zhen Miao was a little surprised, "I heard that the white pheasant is an auspicious thing, and it is rare." ”
"Yes, scarcity is expensive."
"Could it be that something is wrong with the white pheasant? Could it be that he is dead? ”
Zhen Miao is not really lacking in heart, looking at the Queen Mother like that, it is obviously not a good thing to happen, and the prince specially mentioned the white pheasant. That's obviously something happened to the white pheasant.
The emperor offered the dead white pheasant on his birthday, which was a big bad luck.
Luo Tianhuo hooked the corners of his lips and smiled: "It's alive, but a good white pheasant has actually faded and become a colorful chicken!" ”
Colorful chicken ......
This time. Is it fashionable to cheat like this? I also got it in front of the emperor, this specification is quite high.
"And how is the prince?"
"The emperor was furious, ordered the prince to think about it behind closed doors, and then walked away."
In front of hundreds of civil and military officials. The dignified prince was reprimanded like this, it was not just a matter of losing face.
The status of the East Palace is precarious in the eyes of the world.
What he wants is precariousness in the eyes of the world.
The prince is the foundation of the country. There are pirates in the east, there are fierce tribes in the west, and there are Li Wang in the north, and the prince moves, and the world is shaken.
The emperor is not stupid, even if he is really dissatisfied with the prince to the extreme, he will not abolish the prince in the short term.
But there is an old saying that the authorities are confused, what he wants is not the emperor to move, but the prince to be chaotic.
When everyone felt that the prince's status was in danger, how could the prince, who was already worried about the Beihe enclosure, be calm.
The building overturned, and with just one more gentle push, the prince would jump over the wall and kill himself.
The farce of the white pheasant turning into a colorful chicken is like a wing, and it spreads at a very fast speed, and each family has its own thoughts.
Jiang returned to Jian'anbo Mansion, and immediately told the prince Zhen Jianwen about Mrs. Meng of Shaoqing Mansion.
Zhen Jianwen choked when he heard this: "Then how could the Li family refuse?" No, this must be the second brother's idea! ”
Jiang Shi wrung his eyebrows: "Master, isn't it a good thing to refuse?" That Meng Shaoqing is the father-in-law of the third prince, Jing'er followed the six princes, if there is something in the future, our uncle's mansion is sandwiched in the middle, wouldn't it be a dilemma. ”
"Women, what do you know!" Zhen Jianwen's face sank.
If the crown prince is deposed, the third prince is the most promising person to ascend to the throne, and the Bofu is now standing in line, and further progress in the future is just around the corner.
As for Jing'er, she is just a concubine, if the six princes stand on the opposite side of the three princes, he can say that the lady of the Bofu is a concubine, and the Bofu has already severed relations with her.
After being married for so long, Jiang Shi understood what he was thinking at a glance, and his heart felt cold.
The love of the person in front of him for Aunt Lan is still vivid, but in the blink of an eye, the soul of the beloved concubine has passed away, and her daughter can become an abandoned child at any time.
This man is cool enough!
Jiang sneered and smiled: "Master, I am a woman, I really don't know too much, if you have ideas, it is better to discuss it with the second brother." ”
The five girls' parents are all there, even the uncle has no reason to make the decision.
"What Madame said is that you don't have to wait for me for dinner, I'll go find my second brother for a drink."
Zhen Jianwen left in a hurry. (To be continued......)
