The prince arrived
It was obviously a scorching summer, but the queen's Kunhe palace was full of murderous atmosphere.
Ye Qing wore an inconspicuous cyan palace dress, stood in a row with the other five concubines of the crown prince, and knelt down to the emperor and queen on the throne and said: "The concubines see the emperor, the queen, the emperor Wanfu Jin'an, the queen Wanfu Jin'an." ”
-- According to the system, only the crown prince and concubine can call themselves "sons" like the crown prince, and call the emperor and queen "father and emperor" and "mother".
"Get up." There was no joy or anger in the emperor's voice.
The women bowed again: "Thank you Bixia Longen!" ”
Ye Qing finally heard the queen speak for the first time, and her voice sounded very steady: "Give me a seat." ”
The ladies thanked the queen again and sat down in peace.
Ye Qing looked low and pleasing to the eyes, but he quietly glanced at the emperor and queen while people were not paying attention, and found that the emperor's expression was the same haze.
Thinking about it, the prince's exit from the palace last night has been revealed.
Speaking of the day of the palace election, because of the prince's troubles, the night Qing had no chance to see the emperor's appearance clearly, and today is the first time to see it: although the emperor is in his forties, he doesn't look more than thirty years old, rich and handsome, and has the charm of an adult man. And the queen looks at more than 30 people, and her appearance is not first-class gorgeous, but it is very graceful and luxurious, which makes people dare not look directly.
Today is the first time that the prince's concubines have met the emperor after marrying the prince, which is equivalent to meeting the parents the day after the civil wedding, but unfortunately the prince, one of the protagonists, was not present.
After the throne was given, the emperor and queen did not make a sound for a long time, and Yeqing and others naturally did not dare to squeak.
Finally, the queen spoke, and there was anger in her tone: "The prince did something ridiculous last night, and the palace and Bixia were extremely angry, but when the new concubines first entered the East Palace, they still have to abide by their duties as concubines, and remember that innocent people breed trouble, remember?" ”
-- This is to ask the Qing and the others to endure the shame and humiliation of the prince going out to have a private meeting with the prostitutes of the Qinglou on the wedding night.
However, under the eaves, I had to bow my head, and the night Qing didn't care about it, and happily responded with everyone "yes".
The queen had a relieved expression, paused, and said: "The crown prince has six concubines, among which Wang Liangdi has the highest rank, and the prince has no concubine, so the affairs of the East Palace will be handled by Wang Liangdi," Speaking of this, the queen turned her head to look at the emperor, as if she was asking for the emperor's opinion, but forgot that she was obviously stating in tone just now, "Bixia, what do you think?" ”
The emperor sighed and said lightly: "It should be so." ”
The queen smiled slightly: "Since Bixia thinks it is appropriate, then Wang Liangdi will be in charge of the East Palace in the future." Although you don't have to treat each other with the courtesy of a master's mother, you can't commit any offense. ”
All the women answered "yes" in unison.
Ye Qing lowered his head and thought idly: There is the queen Wang in the palace, and there is the Liangdi Wang family in the East Palace, and this Wang's appetite is really not small.
- Yes, this Wang Liangdi is the daughter of the queen's cousin, and she is the queen's cousin.
However, fortunately, among the six people in Yeqing, although the grade ranks second, and his father is also a third-grade Zhizhou, the Ye family is not a big family, and it has no foundation in Chucheng, so it can only be regarded as an upstart in the imperial court. And the situation that she was "hand-picked" by the prince in the Fangfei Palace was spread by whom, so a few days ago, when several princes and new concubines lived together to get married, those who were lower than her didn't take her seriously, but didn't dare to make fun of her face-to-face.
Therefore, hearing the queen's words, the night Qing almost imperceptibly bent the corners of her mouth, great, the gun shot the first bird, she is temporarily safe, and she can think about how to repay the hospitality of the prince's palace when he was elected.
Just as soon as he thought of repaying the prince, he immediately heard Kun and the eunuchs outside the palace singing: "The prince has arrived!" ”
