The reason why Rong Chang asked the fourth aunt Yongning to enter the palace together was because both of them were eldest princesses.

Rongchang is the eldest daughter of the emperor, so she is the eldest princess of this dynasty; Yongning is the emperor's younger sister and the eldest of the daughters of Muzong in the world, so she is the eldest princess.

Further up, that is, Aunt Wanli's generation, none of them are gone. The youngest one, that is, Xu Xianchun's grandmother, Princess Jiashan, died as early as the forty-third year of Jiajing, so there are only two eldest princesses left in this dynasty, Yongning and Rongchang.

The rules in the palace are that the princess and the concubine enter the palace to pay New Year's greetings, so if there is no accident, in addition to Yongning, Rongchang, and Shouning, there will be Princess Ruian and her concubine Wan Wei, Princess Yanqing and her concubine Wang Yu enter the palace together. This Wang Yu is in charge of the affairs of the sect.

The uncle of the folk capital is the father-in-law, and the royal family is no exception. It was a rule set during the reign of Taizu that the horse presided over the affairs of the clan's house, because the horse would be fair in handling the affairs of his wife's family and would not favor any brother-in-law.

After the second day of the first year, there will be courtiers and royal relatives to enter the palace. Therefore, there is a saying in the palace that the second day of the new year is the princess's day.

However, it seems that the royal daughters are also a little withered when they return to their parents' homes, after all, they are the royal family, whether it is Emperor Sejong or Emperor Muzong, or the son of heaven in this dynasty, they have given birth to many daughters. However, most of them died early, and few survived, which is sad to think about.

In addition, it has not been a year since the death of the Queen Mother, so the joy in the palace is much less than in previous years. When the elders died, they were placed in the people, and there was also a custom of worshipping the tablets and the first generation of the first generation.

The ancestor of the Zhu family started from the common people, and he paid great attention to this folk etiquette. Even though there have been many improvements in the royal nobility for more than 200 years, many systems are still closely related to the people.

Now Er Shouning and her group of princesses did not go to the emperor to pay New Year's greetings first, but first went to Cining Palace to incense the queen mother's tablet.

There is a special person in charge of the Ministry of Rites, and this system is also the first year, and there will be no more after that. Waiting for the birth of the next emperor, this Cining Palace will usher in a new owner, and until then, this palace has been empty.

Rong Chang and his concubine Yang Chunyuan were not very affectionate, but Rong Chang still fulfilled his wife's responsibilities and gave birth to five sons for Yang Chunyuan. The eldest Yang Guangkui is 18 years old, and the princess was planning to marry her son last year, but her mother-in-law died, so the matter was put aside.

Because Rongchang is the only child of Wanli and Queen Wang, Wanli loves this daughter very much, much better than Zhi Shouning.

Shouning and the horse were bullied by Diao Nu before, but Wanli ignored them. And Rongchang and the horse had a quarrel, and Wanli was so angry that he scolded his son-in-law.

The difference between the two can be seen.

If it weren't for Shou Ning taking Wei Liangchen's boat, Wanli suddenly discovered the huge value of his daughter's hidden value, but I am afraid that he would not have specially ordered this little daughter to enter the palace in three or five days.

.........

Today's specific process Wei Gonggong is not too clear, and he doesn't know how Shou Ning is going to introduce himself to her father, and ask the old emperor if he is happy, hi.

He was more worried that the old emperor would ask him if Duke Wei was openly unhappy, whether he was happy or not.

In short, his heart is very worried, and his walking posture is also extremely stiff, it seems that every time he takes a step into the palace, his little Wei father-in-law's life span is reduced by one day.

What a difficult time.

Seeing a few boys bouncing in front of Rongchang and Yongning, the thoughtful father-in-law casually asked Shouning: "Did your eldest sister buy our bonds?" ”

"She is the daughter of the queen's mother, how can you look down on me, the daughter of the concubine." Shou Ning looked at the eldest sister in front of him sarcastically.

Queen Wang is extremely small-bellied, and very vicious, father-in-law heard Li Yongzhen say that Kunning Palace has palace people killed every year, many of them are because of trivial things.

Back then, Li Yongzhen went to prison because he interceded for the palace people, but he angered Queen Wang and sent him, a top student of the Inner Library, into the inner prison. If Jin Zhong hadn't tried to save him, Li Yongzhen would have died in prison a long time ago, so there would be no eunuch Si Li Bingbi in the future.

The mother is like this, and it is difficult for the daughter to say that she is not affected by it. Rongchang's concubine Yang Chunyuan has repeatedly quarreled with Rongchang, I am afraid it is more the responsibility of Rongchang's wife.

Therefore, the father-in-law can understand why Shou Ning said this about her sister, maybe Rongchang embarrassed Shou Ning in the past.

"That can't be said, a good trader must have the ability to sell combs to monks." The father-in-law forced a smile.

"You're not afraid of the queen, I'm still afraid." Shou Ning didn't dare to think about it.

The father-in-law laughed: "Don't you want to give your fourth aunt a New Year's greeting?" ”

"I don't want to talk to Rongchang."

Shou Ning shook his head and motioned to Grandpa Wei not to talk nonsense and follow her. The father-in-law had no choice but to follow him silently. Along the way, there were palace people and eunuchs passing by from time to time, and it was very strange to see that His Royal Highness Shouning did not bring a horse into the palace.

Father-in-law Wei smiled at these people from time to time, and he didn't care whether people recognized him or not, whether he recognized them or not.

It's a way to defuse the embarrassment.

In fact, these palace eunuchs didn't equate him with Gonggong Wei and Master Ma at all.

After walking for a while, Shou Ning hugged Qi'er and threw Qi'er into his father's arms without saying anything. The father-in-law hurriedly hugged it, so that the father-in-law smiled happily at the attention of passers-by.

"Your Highness, where are we going?" The father-in-law who found out that he was not going to the Qianqing Palace asked.

Shou Ning said to go to Cining Palace first, and his father-in-law said "oh".

Yongning, who was walking in front, turned around and saw his niece behind, and hurriedly stopped to ask Rongchang and other sisters. Shou Ning in the back saw it, so he had to speed up his pace to meet it.

"Why did you enter the palace alone, Ran Xingrang?" Yongning saw that it was Gonggong Wei holding his nephew and grandson, but his niece and son-in-law were nowhere to be seen, so he asked Shouning what was going on.

Shou Ning squeaked, saying that Ran Xing had suffered from the wind cold a few years ago, and he coughed badly, and it was really inconvenient to enter the palace today.

"Then you have to ask the imperial doctor to go over and take a look, you can't delay." Yongning, this aunt, still cares about her younger generation very much.

After all, it was the New Year, and Rong Chang also had a smile on her face, she didn't know Father-in-law Wei, and when she saw the other party holding her sister's child, she thought it was the internal supervisor of Shouning Mansion, so she stepped forward and teased her nephew, and then took out a red envelope with a golden bean and put it in Qi'er's little hand.

Shou Ning smiled on the side and coaxed Qi'er to thank her aunt, and the sisters looked happy and affectionate.

Yongning, as an aunt, must also have a part of her heart, but instead of giving golden beans, she gave Qi'er a piece of gold.

After teasing Qi'er for a while, Rong Chang said: "Let's go over quickly, don't let your five aunts wait in a hurry." ”

"Okay."

Yongning was also afraid that his sister and brother-in-law would be in a hurry, so he asked everyone to hurry over. On the way, Father-in-law Wei secretly stuffed the red envelope given by Rong Chang to Shou Ning, but found that Shou Ning didn't seem very happy.

"She gave Qi'er one bean, and I'm going to give her five beans, and I'm going to die," Shou Ning pouted and secretly pinched Grandpa Wei, "You have to fight for it, otherwise our family will suffer every year." ”

What am I fighting for?

My father-in-law was speechless.
