It was originally Xiang Yiyi's first birthday banquet, but because of Zhaoqing's arrival, these internal and external wives all went to the pole to scold this princess, after all, Xiang Hongxuan's affection for Zhaoqing just now has made everyone understand how Xiang Hongxuan attaches importance to his sister. For a while, Zhaoqing was in the banquet with infinite scenery, Feng Yingying was a little lost, she excused Xiang Yiyi to need to breastfeed, so she took Xiang Yiyi and left the banquet.

Zhaoqing saw Feng Yingying's sudden departure, she sneered, a little displeased, she picked up the wine glass, and said lightly: "Concubine Shu is really interesting?" Could it be that the harem of Xihua Kingdom is also the mother who personally feeds the princess and the prince? Isn't there a wet nurse in Xihuaguo? ”

As soon as everyone heard Zhaoqing's words, the originally lively banquet suddenly quieted down. Everyone turned their heads to each other, and suddenly Princess Qing responded softly: "What is Xihua Palace like, how can we, Dongyu women, know, maybe that's it, no need for a nurse." ”

Princess Qing's words amused Zhaoqing, and Zhaoqing said with great satisfaction: "The third sister-in-law is really good at telling jokes, this princess is amused by you, the third sister-in-law has nothing to do, come to my princess's mansion to sit down, tell me about the new things in Yicheng." ”

"As long as Princess Zhaoqing doesn't bother me, I will often come to harass you." Saying that, Princess Qing also deliberately took her daughter Jiarou to Zhaoqing's side.

"Your Royal Highness the Princess, this is my youngest daughter Jiarou, the embroidery lady is excellent, go back and let her embroider a silk handkerchief for the princess, even if it is to honor your aunt."

Princess Qing hurriedly pushed her daughter in front of Zhaoqing's eyes, you must know that Zhaoqing is Xiang Hongxuan's most beloved sister, if her daughter can have face in front of Zhaoqing, she will inevitably be able to get the protection of this emperor in the future.

Princess Xian seemed to have just reacted, it turned out that Princess Qing worked so hard to tie up Zhaoqing in order to get a good backer for her daughter Jiarou, and Princess Xian couldn't sit still, she also brought Huaimin to Zhaoqing's side.

"Princess, you have just returned to Yicheng, you must be unfamiliar with Yicheng, it is better to let Huaimin go to the mansion to accompany you, and in your spare time, you can accompany you to walk around this Yicheng."

Zhaoqing frowned, it seemed that she was a little unhappy because of the words of the princess, Princess Qing couldn't help but laugh at the princess in her heart, anyone can see that the princess is flattering Zhaoqing, but the problem is that the rainbow fart also has to be skilled, and the princess is not familiar with Yicheng, isn't this poking Zhaoqing's heart? Who doesn't know how reluctant Zhaoqing was to leave Yicheng back then, if it weren't for the Queen Mother's decree that she had to send her to the Beirong border, how could she leave the prosperous Yicheng and go to the north to blow the wind and sand, this princess is really stupid.

"I said the princess, the princess has a princess's mansion in Yicheng, how can there be a place in Yicheng that the princess is not familiar with, and it's not good for a girl in Huaimin to always go to the market."

Princess Qing almost laughed out loud, she deliberately teased the princess, not only to flatter Zhaoqing, but also to deliberately smear Huaimin and suppress the princess.

Princess Xian also seems to be aware of her own mistakes, although she was suffocated to death by Princess Qing, but in the inner courtyard of the palace, there is a queen and an inner wife, and she can't be angry

, the anger in her eyes seemed to be irrepressible, and she stood aside with a blue face and didn't say a word.

Ling Xi looked at this strange atmosphere, she raised her wine glass, and slowly came to Zhaoqing's side.

"Princess, this palace gives you a drink."

Zhaoqing didn't want to see the two princesses make a fuss in the palace on the first day she returned to Yicheng, she drank the wine in her hand with interest, and then said a little swayingly: "Sister-in-law, I am a little too strong to drink, I will go back to the princess's mansion today, and then enter the palace to meet Niangniang another day." ”

After saying that, Zhaoqing was about to leave, Ling Xi grabbed her, and said softly: "The princess is drunk, just rest in Qianyunju, Your Majesty has already asked people to clean up, and the princess can go back to Qianyunju at any time." ”

Ling Xi finally knew why Xiang Hongxuan would let people deliberately clean up Qianyunju, originally she thought that Xiang Hongxuan wanted to give Qianyunju to Xiang Yiyi as a dormitory, but just now Aunt Yan told her that Qianyunju used to be Zhaoqing's dormitory. Xiang Hongxuan must have a lot of things to say to this sister, if Xiang Hongxuan and Wu Chengan finish talking and can't see Zhaoqing, it is estimated that he will be disappointed.

Zhaoqing smiled proudly, the palace is still the palace, as long as Xiang Hongxuan still has her sister in her heart, she can go back to the past, and she is still the noble princess. Zhaoqing pretended to be a little drunk and nodded, and Ling Xi called Qin'er and helped Zhaoqing back to Qianyunju.

Ling Xi looked at the banquet, Princess Xian and Princess Qing had also returned to their seats, and the palace people served new dishes, no one seemed to remember the small turmoil just now, Ling Xi found a reason, and also got up and left Xiyan Palace.

Unconsciously, Ling Xi strolled into the imperial garden, she looked worried, Aunt Yan retired from the palace and accompanied Ling Xi to wander in the imperial garden.

"Aunt Yan, do you say that this princess and Princess Qing have a grudge? Why do they have to fight like this? Ling Xi was a little puzzled, although it was not the first time she had seen Princess Xian and Princess Qing compete so much, but today Princess Qing stepped on Princess Xian and Lord Huaimin so mercilessly, which seemed to be beyond the contradiction between ordinary concubines.

"The queen mother, the first two princesses were not like this, but since His Majesty was in power, King Xian and King Qing had constant friction in the previous dynasty, King Qing had a good relationship with a group of officials, these officials stared at the clan relatives if they were fine, either to participate in their arrogance and lasciviousness, or to participate in their transgression, after His Majesty saw it, he would always reuse King Qing, and King Qing also became the only prince who served in the previous dynasty. And the dedication of the king is a clan order, and it is extremely prestigious in the clan, and the king often participates in the king's poor behavior, and His Majesty will elevate the identity of the king, so these two princes are grudging more and more. And the two princesses are often called to the harem by the queen mother to participate in some major activities, and I don't know whether it is intentional or unintentional, in short, the queen mother can always make these two tremble at the same time, but also resent each other, and finally the palace and the palace of Qing became incompatible. ”

Ling Xi understood now that Xiang Hongxuan and the queen mother, the mother and son, were deliberately beating a stick to a spoonful of sweet dates, just to let King Xian and King Qing restrain each other, these two princes may be

In order to protect himself, he desperately acted in front of Xiang Hongxuan, and maybe he really resented each other in these accumulated contradictions, but none of this mattered, because the result was that they were really incompatible.

Ling Xi suddenly thought that he hadn't seen Zhao Xinyue during the banquet just now, and it seemed that Zhao Xinyue hadn't gone to Qingfeng Garden to greet her for a long time.

"I didn't see Mrs. Zhao today, what have you been busy with lately?" Ling Xi asked inadvertently.

"Queen Mother, Mrs. Zhao does not appear in Yingyue Pavilion all day long, the palace people said that the night the little prince died, Mrs. Zhao held the body of the little prince and cried on the ground for a night, originally Mrs. Zhao was difficult to give birth, her body was extremely weak, and she experienced the pain of losing her child, and was invaded by the cold all night, and fell seriously ill, and then Mrs. Zhao rarely appeared in Yingyue Pavilion."

Ling Xi remembered that she heard a terrible cry at the door of Yingyue Pavilion that day, Zhao Xinyue's pain should be painful in her heart, how could she possibly participate in Xiang Yiyi's first birthday banquet.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the corner of the garden, and Ling Xi looked from a distance, only to see Princess Xian and Princess Qing arguing again in the imperial garden.

"Yu Qingshan, don't go too far, you can squeeze me as much as you want, but you even slandered Huaimin, you don't have the demeanor of an elder." Princess Xian roared angrily, and the angry Princess Xian had already angrily reprimanded Princess Qing by name.

"Offering the princess, this is the inner courtyard of the palace, what are you trying to do? It's just a casual talk, and I didn't say what happened to Lord Huaimin, why are you angry? ”

Princess Qing may have softened her attitude slightly because of the words she said during the banquet. Princess Kexian didn't seem to buy Princess Qing's account a little, and she looked at Princess Qing viciously.

"Kneel," the princess roared again.

Princess Qing, who was still a little weak just now, also lost her temper, and she said angrily: "Bo Baoling, calling you sister-in-law is to respect you, don't forget, King Xian has already passed on to King Bohai as his heir, according to the current clan relationship, King Qing is His Majesty's own brother." ”

Hearing Yu Qingshan say this, Bo Baoling was even more furious, and she said loudly: "This princess is a sect woman, is it possible that she can't teach you a lesson." ”

Maybe Yu Qingshan was a little frightened by Bo Baoling's posture, maybe it was because of her weak heart, after all, offering the king is a sect order, Yu Qingshan was very reluctant, and fell to her knees with a pop.

A smug smile immediately leaked from Bo Baoling's face, and she said proudly: "Yu Qingshan, Yu Xiang is afraid that he and his wife are busy giving birth to sons and have no time to discipline their daughters, don't be afraid, this princess will tell you the truth of being a man on behalf of Yu Xiang and his wife." ”

Ling Xi looked at the scene in front of her, her brows furrowed, if she let these two know that she was here, it is estimated that the scene would be very ugly, thinking of this, she gently turned around and left the Imperial Garden, walking in the direction of Qingfeng Garden.

Ling Xi's heart muttered, if King Xian passed on to the King of Bohai County as his heir, why could he still become a prince?

"Aunt Yan, what happened to Princess Qing just now that she said that she would succeed the king?"

"Queen Mother, the king was originally the concubine of the former emperor's wife, Queen Bo, after Queen Bo died of illness,

Suddenly, one day there was a priest who said that there was a catastrophe in the life of the king, and the first emperor passed on the king to his brother the king of Bohai County, but later after His Majesty took the government, he enshrined the king who inherited the title of the king of Bohai County as the prince, so there was Princess Qing just said that. ”

Ling Xi was taken aback, it was the first time that the queen's concubine had been passed over, if there was no succession of the king, then the ninety-five honor on the dragon chair, I am afraid that it would not be Xiang Hongxuan's turn. But the successor to the king is the first emperor Xuanwu Emperor, that is, the king is not seated in the throne, it is destined. So Xiang Hongxuan dared to be the king, maybe from the beginning, Xiang Hongxuan just wanted to support the eldest brother who was not a threat to him, and help him manage his clan, except for the king, there was indeed no more suitable candidate.
