On the second day of September, it was the birthday of the Empress Dowager, and the Great Zhou Emperor was extremely filial, holding a banquet in the palace, and all the Chinese military officials brought their families into the palace to congratulate.

Gu Yunxin got up early in the morning to freshen up and change his clothes, and King Rui sent Gu Yunxin a light purple princess palace dress, which looked even more correct with King Rui's purple prince clothes.

Riding the carriage to the front of the palace, as soon as I got off the car, I saw the carriage of the Xiangyang Palace, the jade hand was lightly picked, and a beautiful woman walked out of the carriage, but I saw that the woman's lower abdomen was slightly raised, and the man on the side took care of it carefully, these two people were not the prince of Xiangyang and Zhan Xinyue.

A few days ago, when I went to visit my grandmother in the Dingguo Mansion, I had already heard my aunt say that Xinyue's cousin was already pregnant, and Mrs. Zhan's wife insisted that Zhan Xinyue's fetal statue in the mansion was stable before agreeing to let them go back to Xiangyang Palace.

Who is there in this Xiangyang Palace, Zhan Xinyue and He Yunhai naturally know, but that Qian Concubine is very good at blowing pillow wind, this time she returned to Xiangyang Palace to live, and it was also Xiangyang King who sent someone to pick it up, which made everyone in Kyoto know, and the Dingguo Mansion was also for the harmony of the two families, and it was also for Zhan Xinyue not to be difficult to do in He Jia, so they had to let their husband and wife go back to Xiangyang Palace.

"Sister, I haven't seen you for a long time, and now my sister is pregnant, but you must be more careful." Gu Yunxin said softly when she pulled Zhan Xinyue.

"Well, I and the prince have always been very careful about this, but my sister and His Royal Highness King Rui have not been married for a long time, I don't know if the prince is good to you?"

"The prince is very good to me, I heard that my sister has returned to Xiangyang Palace, my sister should be careful of the people around her, otherwise, I will send Hongling to my sister's side, and everything will wait until my sister gives birth safely, and then I will find an excuse to go to the Dingguo Mansion for confinement, so that I can rest assured." Gu Yunxin frowned slightly.

"Sister Princess, is this because it is not good for me to protect Xinyue? The maids and maids in my yard are all used to by me, so the princess and sister don't have to worry about Xinyue's safety. He Yunhai arched his hand towards Gu Yunxin.

"The prince only knows that the people in your courtyard are used to it, but Concubine Qian has deep roots in the Xiangyang Palace, and she has medicine in your diet, haven't you noticed it? If you want me to send Hongling there, you have to think clearly. After finishing speaking, Gu Yunxin walked into the palace gate.

He Yunhai pondered for a moment, and had to admit that what Gu Yunxin said was very reasonable. He and Zhan Xinyue lived in the Dingguo Mansion for only a month, and Zhan Xinyue became pregnant, if it weren't for the support of Mrs. Zhan's family, how could Zhan Xinyue be pregnant until six months before returning to the Xiangyang Palace.

The people of Xiangyang Wangfu can't be trusted, but if you blatantly take the people of Rui Wangfu back, won't it add a lot of unnecessary trouble?

Gu Yunxin used to be the county lord of Xiyue, and the maidservants and Kyoto officials around her all knew her, how could this be good? Thinking of this, He Yunhai couldn't help frowning slightly.

"Husband, do you have something on your mind? Yunxin is all for the sake of

I'm good, the tone is heavier, don't mind husband. ”

"I don't mind, it's just that what Princess Rui said, it does make me a little worried."

"So ......"

Before the two of them finished speaking, Concubine Qian and her son He Yunbin walked over, "Yunhai, Xinyue, your father and mother have already entered the palace, and I can't find you anywhere, I didn't expect you to chat here." ”

"The mother concubine saw Princess Narui, she was very proud just now, and she thought that the eldest brother and sister-in-law were in a hurry to get close to the Rui Palace, so it was delayed." He Yunbin sneered.

"What does this son do, I don't have to report to you, Xinyue, let's go." After finishing speaking, He Yunhai took Zhan Xinyue's hand and walked over.

"Mother, look at the smug appearance of the two of them, I really can't swallow this breath, didn't you say that you want to help me win the throne? Why don't you do it yet? He Yunbin complained.

Before He Yunhai married Zhan Xinyue, the eldest lady of the Dingguo Mansion, his mother had already begun to lobby the King of Xiangyang, and on the grounds that He Yunhai was not in good health, he would give the throne to He Yunbin.

But I don't want to, this Zhan family would rather choose a sick man than choose him, and say that there is a difference between the dignity and inferiority of the concubine, to put it bluntly, he just doesn't look down on him as a side concubine.

"Yun Bin, don't worry, this matter has to be planned slowly, now, that Gu Yunxin is married to King Rui, He Yunhai has more help from King Rui invisibly, even if King Rui has no intention of helping him, Gu Yunxin will help him for Zhan Xinyue." Concubine Qian said with a look of resentment.

"That's hopeless, how can this damn Gu Yunxin have such a good life, he didn't marry Xiao Ziming, but he married King Rui, who doesn't know the status of King Rui in the court, mother concubine, could it be that King Rui also wants to compete for the prince?" He Yunbin said with a look of surprise.

King Rui has never been willing to get married for so many years, before the emperor thought about marrying the daughter of the Bai family to King Rui, but this girl of the Bai family was exposed to such an unbearable side, think about it carefully, marrying Gu Yunxin must be much more useful than the stupid woman of the Bai family, with Gu Yunxin, the Gu family, the Zhan family, and the old lady of the Gu family, the Shen family, and their Xiangyang Palaces are all connected.

But marrying the second lady of the Bai family is different, today's Bai family is not as good as before, although it has military power in hand, but it is a withered talent.

Now that the daughter of the Bai family is plotting to kill the county lord, King Jingkang has raised the dead soldiers, the military power has been seized, and the dead soldiers have all been exterminated by King Rui, so it can be said that the Bai family has no use value at all.

Since the beginning of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there has never been an emperor who is crippled, if five or six years ago, even if he does not fight for the position of the prince, with his past achievements and the reputation of the people, the position of the prince will also be his, but it is a pity that he is now crippled in both legs, and he still wants the throne?

"You kid, you don't know how to be careful when you speak, this is the palace, how many eyes and ears there are." Money side

The concubine tugged at He Yunbin's sleeve and said.

"Lord Wang, Princess Wan'an." The palace maid saw King Rui and Gu Yunxin hurriedly saluting respectfully.

"Get up." Rui Wang said lightly.

King Rui and Gu Yunxin walked in this palace, attracting the attention of many people, these two people, the man is handsome and extraordinary, and the woman's appearance is overwhelming, walking in this palace, it is really a beautiful scenery.

"Brother Rui Wang, I haven't seen you for a few days, but my complexion is better than usual." King Ding raised his eyebrows and sneered.

"People are in good spirits on happy occasions, and this king is naturally happy when he marries the best woman in the world. Looking at the dark green under Brother Dingwang's eyes, I am afraid that he is thinking too much and cannot sleep steadily. King Rui smiled lightly.

"Brother Rui Wang is really good at laughing, how can this king never sleep steadily? It's just that the imperial grandmother mentioned that she did not have a great-grandson, and this king wants to work harder on this heir in order to honor the imperial grandmother. Where is the brother of Shangrui Wang, you can use your mobility to block it. King Ding said with a lewd smile.

Hearing this, Gu Yunxin glanced at him, such a person actually wants to be an emperor, as a prince, he can't take the government to heart, he thinks about it all day long, if it weren't for the king of Xiang, he would be useless, I am afraid that this king will not be able to gain a foothold in Kyoto.

Suddenly, King Ding fell on Gu Yunxin's body, looked up and down, and couldn't help but admire in his heart, the women in his house knew that they were going to enter the palace to participate in the birthday banquet, but they all had to be carefully dressed, but this Gu Yunxin was only slightly powdered, and the clothes were also very elegant.

Immediately, there was also the idea of embarrassing King Rui for a while. King Rui's wedding, all the limelight has been given, it's been so many days, the people of Kyoto are still talking about King Rui's wedding, if he doesn't want a way to make King Rui's embarrassing things over, he still wants to lose face.

In the past, on the birthday of the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother would always arrange for some official ladies who had not yet left the cabinet to perform, so that the prince and the prince could see if there was anyone they liked.

Today's birthday banquet will naturally be no exception, after all, King Xiang, King Hui and King Huai have not yet married. Especially King Hui, since the fire destroyed his appearance, people have become less talkative, plus his biological mother Xi Concubine. The mother's family has no background, and the daughter's family with good natural conditions is unwilling to marry him.

Now, because Concubine Xi gave birth to a prince, the emperor has also entered her position as Concubine Xi, and it may be easier to marry a concubine with a high position.

As for King Xiang, naturally she doesn't have to worry about it, in order to consolidate his son's power, Empress Xiao has been meeting with those women recently.

At the beginning of the birthday banquet, the emperor and the empress first saluted the queen mother to congratulate her birthday and gave a birthday gift. Then the concubines and princes congratulated their birthdays in order.

Gu Yunxin glanced at King Rui with some concern, the birthday gift she prepared for the Queen Mother was a picture of 100 longevity embroidered by herself, if it was compared with King Ding and King Xiang, her gift would be a little unacceptable.

"Lord Wang, you can prepare it

His gift? Gu Yunxin whispered beside King Rui.

"Preparation, preparation, I ordered someone to make a big piece of peacock feathers, why did you ask about this?" King Rui looked at Gu Yunxin with a smile and said.

looked at Gu Yunxin's little face with a look of embarrassment, and then continued: "The lady is worried that your gifts are not as good as theirs? ”

"Yes, what they gave was white jade or something, the gifts of the concubines were indeed not on the table, otherwise, they would only give the prince's gift."

"It's okay, my imperial grandmother is not the woman who has never seen the world, those white jade and jade mundane things can't enter my imperial grandmother's eyes at all, you can rest assured to present the gift, the imperial grandmother will definitely like it." King Rui smiled and encouraged.

Even if King Rui said this, Gu Yunxin was still a little hesitant, even though the Queen Mother was used to seeing good things, but if she really gave this hundred longevity chart as a birthday gift, I was afraid that it would be used by King Ding and King Xiang to play on the topic.
