Zhou Baolu returned to the palace, but he didn't do anything else, so he sent someone to call Lily and instructed: "Add a few dishes today, drink wine, and take some double pear blossoms to drink later." ”

Lily replied smartly: "Yes, I went to the kitchen outside before, and saw that there is fresh lamb today, I heard that the Huangzhuang outside the Inner Mongolia side of the sheep was introduced to try to raise, first advanced a batch, very tender, no smell, better than the sheep here." The emperor also said that it was good, the slave and maid went to ask for a piece, and this time it was pickled, and it was baked and drunk, okay? ”

Zhou Baolu suddenly felt that this idea was good: "Then it has to be outside, well, send someone to clean up the Zhendan Pavilion and put it there to bake, and a few osmanthus flowers are blooming next to it." ”

The maids were busy with their own affairs, and when Xiao Hongcheng returned to the East Palace, as soon as he entered the door, the maid replied: "Niangniang said, the prince will go to Zhendan Pavilion when he comes back, and Niangniang is waiting for the prince over there." ”

Saying this, Xiao Hongcheng has a feeling of a Hongmen banquet.

Zhendan Pavilion is in the south of the East Palace, there is no special scenery, but it is this season, there are just a few old osmanthus trees, it is the flowering season, the trees are full of golden, and you can smell the rich and sweet fragrance of osmanthus from afar.

There is also a meaty aroma mixed with the aroma of seasonings.

Outside the pavilion there is a big copper shelf, the top is covered with copper wire mesh, the bottom is burning silver frost charcoal, a few maids are carefully roasting mutton, kidney slices, mushrooms and vegetables and other things, Zhou Baolu often wears a silver shirt with silver and red sprinkled flowers, a white thread skirt, sitting in the pavilion, a set of red lotus flowers on the table, a set of lotus leaf-shaped lilac stone wine pot wine glasses, next to the stone farther away, there are two little maids who have just hung down and fan the stove to make tea.

It's very leisurely.

Zhou Baolu didn't wait for Xiao Hongcheng at all, so he poured himself a drink.

Xiao Hongcheng walked over and said with a smile: "Why are you so interested today?" ”

Zhou Baolu put down his chopsticks, stood up and pulled his hand: "I feel that I need to introspect today." ”

Xiao Hongcheng laughed: "Introspection? For what? Introspection is eating and drinking in a different way? It's a good idea, this place is also cleaned up, and I am also interested in looking at it. ”

Zhou Baolu smiled and pulled him to sit down, and handed the chopsticks to his hand: "This mutton is really good, it's better to eat it roasted than ever, you taste it, it's fragrant and tender." ”

The mutton is sprinkled with seasonings, fragrant, take a bite, the rich meat aroma and gravy are full of flavor, and smooth and tender, and then drink a sip of clear sweet wine, just right.

Xiao Hongcheng ate two pieces in a row, and when he saw Zhou Baolu looking at him and smiling, he said: "Okay, I've eaten meat, drunk wine, and eaten people's mouths, I can only agree to whatever you want to say." ”

"Ha Lu Ha." Zhou Baolu said with a smile: "Today, the third brother and sister gave birth to a sister, I went to see her, but I watched a scene." ”

"Hmm." Xiao Hongcheng ate another piece of meat, and Zhou Baolu also ate a piece in his busy schedule, Xiao Hongcheng handed the cup in his hand to her mouth, and she took a sip of Xiao Hongcheng's hand.

Then he crackled and told the story again.

Xiao Hongcheng listened with a smile, and when he heard her and Xiao Hongqing singing and harmonizing, he felt more and more funny, but the strange thing was: "What do you have to introspect about this matter?" ”

"I thought, the third brother is the king, it is naturally not as good as you being crowned the prince, how long has the imperial concubine just gone, and their family is anxious to let the Guo family daughter in his courtyard, it is nothing more than to get his light, I am afraid that after the days go by, he will forget the Guo family." Zhou Baolu said slowly.

Zhou Baolu ate a piece of shiitake mushrooms, the juice was rich, sweet and delicate, so he gave Xiao Hongcheng a piece: "You try this." ”

Then he said, "How long has Empress Jingxian been there...... In the past, you were young, but later when you were older, your father and emperor did not give marriage for a long time, and the concubine Wu in the harem was favored by ......"

She looked back at Xiao Hongcheng's side face that was only smiling at her, and sighed: "Cheng'en Mansion is only afraid that I have thought about it more than once, right?" ”

Xiao Hongcheng thought for a while and said implicitly: "Cheng'en Gongfang's family...... Well, the population is not as large as the Guo family. ”

It was at this time that Zhou Baolu realized that the old lady of the Chengen Gongfang family, the lady of the house, was not very enthusiastic about her.

She originally thought that people were subtle, or if she thought about it a little deeper, maybe the prince's grandmother's family disliked her mother's downfall, and she didn't help the prince enough, so she was not worthy of the prince.

She originally thought that these two points were enough, but today's scene in King Jing's Mansion made her think, maybe there is a third point?

Zhou Baolu wrenched his fingers and calculated: "Today's Chengengong has never given birth to a daughter, but he gave birth to a son, and then gave birth to one, isn't it six or seven years old this year?" ”

She tried to remember, but she couldn't remember if she had ever seen the little girl.

It stands to reason that the identity of Cheng'en's family is sufficient, and the elder brother of the Empress Yuan, the uncle of the eldest prince and princess, and his wife often come to the palace.

But I don't remember the little girl, she should be quite young, so she didn't bring it into the palace, of course, because she was not warm with Zhou Baolu, so she didn't come to the East Palace to say goodbye.

Xiao Hongcheng said with a smile: "Seven years old, my uncle is just such a girl, what does he love, but there is more than one girl in the Fang family, besides, how many aunts are there?" ”

Zhou Baolu said: "So I set a table of wine to thank you!" ”

Xiao Hongcheng was surprised: "What is there to thank for this, isn't this what it should be?" What I've said always counts. ”

“……”

Such a simple sentence turned out to be Zhou Baolu, who has always been sharp and sharp-tongued, and the most talkative, was speechless for a while, and after a while she said: "That is the case, then it can be regarded as a relief to you!" ”

"For this matter, someone must be annoying you a lot, and in the end, it is your grandmother and your aunt, who are not so easy to talk to." Zhou Baolu knows that the Cheng'en family and the Guo family are not the same, especially when the Fang family was married as the crown princess, the Fang family had the title of Marquis of Changning, the old Marquis of Changning led the troops in a good way, guarding the northwest for 20 years, and it can be regarded as an outstanding achievement, fifteen years ago, in the battle of the Dayue clan's sneak attack on Junguan, the old Changning Marquis and the second son both died in battle, leaving only the current Chengengong, the prince of Changning at that time, led the mourning soldiers to defend the city, and worked hard for seven days before waiting for reinforcements to defend the Junguan.

Mrs. Fang not only has face because her daughter is the queen, but also has face in the court because her husband and children, husband and son were martyred.

Such a lady, of course, can't be like the third prince did to Mrs. Guo, you can threaten that if you dare to send someone, I will send it to my second brother.

Xiao Hongcheng said: "Actually, my grandmother only said it once, her old man originally wanted to make the daughter of the second uncle the crown princess, I persuaded her old man, and no matter what the father and emperor thought, let's take a look in vain, the daughter of the Fang family is two princesses before and after, and it is too eye-catching, others talk about it, this court has become the Fang family's fault?" The Fang family has been loyal and good for generations, and its reputation and dignity did not come from a marriage with the royal family, so why bother to ask people to say this? The old lady lifted her hand. ”

Fang Erye, who died in the war, left a son and a daughter, fatherless and orphaned daughters, and his grandmother was more painful, and she wanted to give her a good marriage, and there were also them.

Zhou Baolu nodded, indicating that she understood.

Xiao Hongcheng said: "It's just that my aunt is a little unwilling to give up." ”

"What does she want?" Zhou Baolu asked: "The concubine next to you is not full of names, and Liangdi Liangyuan is only one person, she can't do it with you, she will find me one day." ”

"You can stop it once or twice, but you can't stop it for a lifetime." Zhou Baolu heard what Wang Jinxiu said, 'Who doesn't have a cousin.' 'I thought.

The three princes' foreign families are desperately trying to put their cousins and aunts in the prince's mansion, and the prince only has more sought-after.

Zhou Baolu had never seen it before, that is, Xiao Hongcheng stopped him in advance.

That's why Zhou Baolu said that she needed to introspect, she hadn't thought of this, probably because this thought was not pleasant, so she subconsciously didn't want to think about it.

But when she thought about it for a while, she also understood, this kind of thing is not something that you won't have if you don't think about it, not only will the Fang family find her sooner or later, but other people, if they have the opportunity, they won't let it go.

Who can have a better future than the crown prince? And the prince's harem is empty, and the ready-made seats are waiting for them.

Xiao Hongcheng looked at her and laughed: "What's there to worry about this kind of thing, as long as you shouldn't, I shouldn't, who can really bring me in?" ”

"It's as simple as that?" Zhou Baolu said: "Some people are always bad for you not to give face. ”

"The face is not taken by the concubine, whose concubine is the face?" Xiao Hongcheng was very unimpressed: "In the final analysis, it's just that the man wants it himself, so he will find countless excuses, this must be accepted, and that can't help but give face to others, so I have to take it back, the woman in the back house, attached to her husband's family, what can I do?" Horizontal and vertical can only respond, it is better to be generous, and have a virtuous reputation to please the husband. ”

Xiao Hongcheng poured another glass of wine to drink: "When you really don't want it, think about your father, my father has not entered the harem for ten years, there is no queen in the harem, and there are only two concubines, and there is no one in a few years, and in ten years, I have not been promoted to the third place." Who dares to say anything? Also, look at Uncle Shen, who has no wife and no concubine, who dares to go to him and ask him to marry a wife and take a concubine? ”

In this way, Zhou Baolu really understood a lot, the harem should have been decided by the emperor, only when the emperor wanted to draft a girl, there were countless families planning and plotting, sharpening their heads to fight, when the emperor didn't want it, no one could let the emperor want it.

Xiao Hongcheng comforted: "If my father wants to reward the side concubine, there is no way, we can only accept the order, but other people, you just don't care, we are in the palace, and it is not like in the third brother's mansion, someone who enters the house with the affection of relatives, don't worry at all." ”

"Hmm!" Zhou Baolu smiled and nodded in agreement.

Xiao Hongcheng saw that his hands were itchy again, and he reached out to pinch her face: "How many people have seen a shadow of a person when they eat dry vinegar, and it is strange that you can start to be jealous without even seeing a shadow of a person!" ”

Zhou Baolu bared his teeth: "How can I be jealous!" I thought of this, specially set up a wine to invite you, I didn't expect before, how much you blocked me outside, but now that I think about it, it's not good to pretend to be stupid again. ”

In such a late autumn, Zhou Baolu smiled like a spring flower.
