Chapter 230: The Visitation
"What, I said yes? Can't answer? Feng Qing, Feng Qing, you and I are husband and wife, I still can't see through that little bit of your thoughts? Scold! Duan Yingjin smiled disdainfully.
Feng Qing was told a secret, and she gasped and broke open Duan Yingjin's palm. She tried to calm her emotions: "yes, what if I just have such a mind? I was supposed to marry the crown prince, and the future queen was in my pocket! But the prince designed me so that I had to marry a down-and-out prince like you, what can I do? If I don't fight for it, I really won't have the slightest thought! It's good now, I'm afraid it's really wishful thinking! With that, he sat back on his stool in discouragement.
"Why do you say these discouraged words? This king may not have a chance to turn the tables. Duan Yingjin sat down and drank another glass of wine, but lost her appetite for the delicacies on the table.
"Still a chance? What chances? Where's the opportunity? Feng Qing asked three questions in a row, undoubtedly impatient.
"Don't worry, listen to me tell you slowly. So far, there is only a soldier who can make a dangerous move......" Duan Yingjin said slowly in Feng Qing's ear.
I don't know what Duan Yingjin said, Feng Qing was obviously moved. She looked at her husband suspiciously, and her tone was still a little uncertain: "Can this method work?" Wouldn't it be too risky? β
Duan Yingjin patted the back of her hand and said with relief: "Don't worry, princess, your husband won't harm you." In a few days it will be the winter solstice, you bring some rituals and go into the palace to see the queen and my depressed eldest princess sister......"
On the day of the winter solstice, the sky was covered with fine snow again, and Feng Qing led his son on the road to Fengwu Palace. Maud was already four years old, the age of mischievousness, and he clamored to go in every palace he came across.
"Look at what! Can you just go into those girls' dormitories? Feng Qing reluctantly blew her son's nose, she was frozen like this, and she didn't forget to be naughty!
"Why can't you see it? We have all lived in the palace of the queen's aunt, can they be more noble than the aunt? Maud was puzzled.
"No nonsense! Hurry up. Don't forget how the mother taught you yesterday, to meet the queen and your cousin...... Aunt...... Alas, it doesn't matter what you call it, in short, the mouth must be sweet! "According to the relationship between the Feng family, Duanxiang is Maode's cousin, but according to the royal bloodline, she is Maode's aunt, which is really troublesome!
"Got it, got it! Mother, you've said it several times, and the children remember it! The child just needs to be coquettish to the queen's aunt and praise the princess's cousin for being beautiful, right? β
"Just remember. But don't mention Ruiyi's sadness, do you hear it? "Maude, this kid didn't know where to hear that Duan Xiang likes theater, and he almost wrapped his own toy face mask into the Boxing Rite before. Fortunately, it was discovered by the coral in time, otherwise it would have been a big disaster!
"I heard it, never mention singing!" The little doll shook her arms and swore an oath.
"Be good, go quickly, don't tell the queen to wait." Feng Qing touched her son's little brain with satisfaction, and the tension in her heart was slightly reduced.
Coincidentally, when Feng Qing arrived, Feng Yi and a pair of children were also talking to the queen in Fengwu Palace.
"Sister Yi is also there?" Feng Qing and her son met the two elder sisters, King Xian and Princess Yangshun one by one.
"Qing'er, come on, I'm waiting for you! The three of us sisters are going to get together today! Feng Yi affectionately pulled Feng Qing to sit down, and handed Mao De to Duan Yingyu and Duan Wan to play with.
"The emperor is seriously ill, and the winter solstice, which was supposed to be lively, is now a lot colder. It's rare that you have the heart, remember to come and visit the palace. Feng Wu ordered Miaoqing to give Feng Qing a new soup woman, and by the way, she left her mother and son to eat.
"Where does my sister say, my sister is naturally worried about my sister, isn't this just bringing Maude?" Feng Qing thought that Feng Wu would be jealous of her because King Jin was jealous of her, and she was struggling to find some reason to stay for a while, but she didn't expect Feng Wu to invite her first!
Feng Qing was faintly happy, and thought of the purpose of coming here, so she pretended to ask casually: "Hey, why don't you see Ruiyi?" It's rare that the children are all here, how can she not come to be lively? I haven't seen Ruiyi for a long time, and I, the aunt, miss her. Sister Yi, did you say? She threw the stubble to Feng Yi, and Feng Yi could only echo it.
"Hongu also hopes that she can walk around more, but this kid ...... Alas, don't mention it! Feng Wu sighed, thinking that her daughter had changed now, which was really worrying. She waved her hand and motioned for Pu Jia to invite the eldest princess over.
Duan Xiang sat in front of the dresser, looking at himself in the mirror with an expressionless face. Now she seems to have forgotten how to laugh and cry, just like a shriveled plant, no matter how she looks at it, she has lost her former vitality.
Pu Jia quietly entered the princess's dormitory and stood ten steps away from Duanxiang: "Princess, Concubine Yi, Princess Jin, King Xian, Princess Yangshun, and Prince Jin have all come to greet Niangniang." The mother asked the princess to go out to meet her. "The current Duanxiang is impossible to get close, who knows when she will suddenly change her face?
"They came to ask the queen mother, what does it have to do with this princess? Missing! Sure enough, Duan Xiang behaved extremely irritable, and casually threw a box of rouge at Pujia.
Fortunately, Pujia stood far away and didn't hit it. She happily wiped the sweat on her forehead, and replied boldly: "Niangniang said that it is rare for Princess Jin and the prince to enter the palace, so they have to see the princess." If the princess doesn't go, it's rude......"
"I will only press me with courtesy, and the queen mother should really feel sorry for me! Hum! Duan Xiang snorted disdainfully, stood up and was about to walk out.
Pu Jia took a few steps back and hurriedly stopped her: "The princess hasn't dressed up yet." β
"This princess is willing to meet them to give them enough face, and there is no need to be solemn! Besides, do you think my current outfit is unsightly? "Duanxiang wore a daily xxx jacket, although it was not grand enough, but it was passable.
"The slave didn't dare. Then invite the princess Sui slave to come. "How dare Pu Jia talk back to the princess, she just accepts it when she sees it.
"The eldest princess has arrivedβ" With the little eunuch's scream, Duan Xiang came to the center of the main hall with lazy steps.
"The sons and daughters have seen the queen mother, and they have seen Concubine Yi and Princess Jin." The salute is also quite casual.
"No rules!" Feng Wu was angry when she looked at her daughter's weird appearance, but the person who caused all this was herself. It can be described as "self-inflicted", and she has no place to complain.
"Come on, come on, let Auntie take a good look!" Feng Qing stepped forward affectionately, wanting to resolve the awkward atmosphere.
Duanxiang is more than fourteen years old this year, and he is about to reach the age when he can leave the cabinet. Although the girl doesn't seem to have much energy, she is still slim. Feng Qing also specially brought some delicate things that girls like today, hoping that Duan Xiang would be interested.
Before Feng Qing's hand touched the corner of Duan Xiang's clothes, Duan Xiang sensitively avoided it, and scolded rudely: "Don't touch me!" Not only was Feng Qing stunned at this moment, but everyone present was taken aback by her fierce reaction.
"Ruiyi!" Feng Wu was furious and slapped the table hard. Duan Xiang subconsciously shrank for a moment, and then met Feng Wu's gaze with a more rebellious attitude. Feng Wu closed her eyes helplessly: "Ruiyi, quickly apologize to Princess Jin." β
Duan Xiang bit his lip and reluctantly blessed Feng Qing: "It's rude." Ruiyi is unwell, but she still doesn't bother everyone Yaxing. Ruiyi retired. Without waiting for Feng Wu's permission, he wanted to turn around and leave.
Feng Wu just wanted to open her mouth to stop her, but someone acted before her. Xiao Maode, swaying and walking in front of Duanxiang, grabbed her skirt with her little hand, licked her lips and looked innocent: "Where is my cousin?" Would you like to take Maude to play too? β
"What are you doing? Loosen up! Duan Xiang hurriedly pulled out the hem of his skirt and pushed Mao De in disgust. Maude didn't stand firm, fell and squatted, and cried with a flat mouth.
"Ruiyi! Look at what you've done? Don't hurry up and help the son up! Feng Wu pointed at her daughter and ordered.
"I don't! Who told him to please me? I just wanted to go back to the house, but he stopped me! Duanxiang was so displeased that he didn't even bother to say honorifics.
"You're so unruly! Look at this palace and punish you well! Feng Wu was about to rush over and slap her daughter when she spoke, but was stopped by Feng Yi and Miaoqing.
Feng Qing helped up the crying Maode and persuaded him: "Forget it, children are not sensible, don't worry about the queen!" Feng Qing said that she didn't mind, but she hated this girl with no one in her eyes! I really feel sorry for my baby son, and I don't know if it matters if I fall?
"Little children? She'll be in a few months! Maude is called a child! Feng Wu was angry.
Mao De was held in Feng Qing's arms, looking at the angry queen, and then at the stubborn and disobedient Duanxiang. He felt that the unfamiliar big sister in front of him was not beautiful at all, and even a little hateful. When he came, he couldn't remember a word of the flattering words that his father taught him, and now all he has left in his mind is the idea of avenging the "revenge of a push" just now.
Maude's eyes rolled a few times, and a brilliant idea that could disgust Duanxiang came to him. Maude, who had stopped crying, suddenly sobbed pitifully again, and his voice became louder and louder, until he attracted the attention of the adults.
"Yo, Maude, what's wrong? Crying again! Did it hurt somewhere? Or are you scared by us? Feng Yi took the opportunity to draw the focus on Mao De, saving the queen's mother and daughter from tension.
"Look at how scared my brother!" Feng Wu glared at Duan Xiang fiercely, and strangely, there didn't seem to be such a strong sense of reproach in this eye.
"Woo~Woo~, I heard that the princess's cousin likes to listen to operas, just like giving a beautiful face to her cousin, but the mother doesn't let me! My cousin must have been angry because I didn't bring her a gift! Maud pretended to wipe away his non-existent tears as he peeked through his fingers at Duanxiang's expression.
Duan Xiang's face distorted as expected, she stared at Mao De viciously, and said word by word: "You, again, say, one, again?" β
"Maude, shut up!" Feng Qing covered her son's mouth tightly. It's really a pot that doesn't open and which pot to mention, and I have touched Duanxiang's reverse scales! She explained with a smiling face: "Tong Yan is unscrupulous, he has no intention!" β
"Vertical daring! Do you dare to ridicule this princess? Don't look at what your identity is! A natural nasty seed, just like your cheap father! I saw Duan Xiang's miserable white face, but his eyes were as sharp as a blade, and his fingers at Mao De trembled uncontrollably.
Duan Xiang's words were indeed a bit excessive, not only insulting the father and son of King Jin, but also scolding Feng Qing into it. Even if Feng Qing's cultivation is good, he can't help but sink his face at this time.
"Shut up to this palace! Someone came, and put the princess in the dormitory. No one is allowed to let her out without an order from the palace! Feng Wu finally couldn't sit still, it was time for Duan Xiang to leave.
"The queen mother actually grounded her sons for a lowly race? Hahaha...... All right! All right! Hahaha...... "Duanxiang's appearance at the moment really looks a little crazy."
Mao De hid behind Feng Qing in fear, he regretted deliberately provoking his cousin. Feng Qing hugged Mao De tightly, her heart was already angry, the crazy girl called her son with a "dirty seed" on the left and a "cheap seed" on the right, how could she bear it?
Therefore, the words he said were also accompanied by guns and sticks: "Yes, how noble is the eldest princess, how can we lowly people deserve to be in the same room with you?" But I'm also curious, princess and other noble figures, I wonder if the word 'politeness' can be written? Where did the princess's upbringing go? As he spoke, he glanced at the queen, intentionally or unintentionally.
"That's enough, let's not say a word. In today's situation, it is inconvenient for the palace to keep the two sisters for a long time. changed the Japanese palace to set up a banquet for hospitality, and asked Ruiyi, the girl, to apologize to her sister in person. Let's disperse for now. Feng Wu waved his sleeves and made a headache.
"The concubine (son-in-law) retired." A cadre and others left Fengwu Palace in different moods.
