Chapter 22: Change
But today, Jinghu didn't find a chance to talk to Zhenning about her heart.
Half a morning and an afternoon, he accompanied the crown princess and Princess Zhenjing in the Chunhe Palace, and teased the emperor's eldest grandson, and the time passed quickly.
Jinghu thought that the crown princess would have something to say to him at first, but she didn't, and it was just a joke.
Also, she is a child, and she may not be able to understand if she talks to her, so it's better not to tell her, she is happy.
The palace banquet is set in the Chang'an Palace, there are not many princesses today, and she is the only county lord in Yanjing, so her position is quite high, and she sits next to Princess Zhenning.
They followed the crown princess and Princess Zhenjing into the table, and the crown princess was the most well-behaved, so they arrived very early, and the queen and the queen had not yet set up a fight, and half of the people in the palace had not yet sat down.
Jinghu's eyes were sharp, and at a glance he saw Ke Mingxu who followed the prince into the palace. She didn't expect that Ke Mingxu would have the opportunity to have his own position in the Chang'an Palace today.
It's just that he followed the prince, on the side of the male guest, the center of the hall was empty, and she still couldn't say a word to him. I could only look at him from afar, hoping that he would look at her. Unfortunately, there are none.
When the banquet was to be opened, in front of him were the children of the clan and the lord's house, and his position was almost at the entrance of the hall. It's far away from Jinghu, of course.
Her attention was also on him. There were several times when people in the palace raised their glasses to wish the queen a thousand autumns, but she didn't move, but Zhenning pulled her.
Zhen Ning naturally followed her gaze and discovered Ke Mingxu very early, and after seeing Jinghu's performance, she didn't have to tell her about her mind anymore, she could guess it.
Jinghu toasted, and unconsciously came out of his senses.
But the emperor on the dragon chair also found out, and opened his mouth with a smile, "Jingling, what's wrong today, why are you so distracted, looking at the door of the hall." But don't you think it's fun in this Chang'an Palace? ”
Although Jinshang and her father King Yongning are cousins, they grew up together since childhood, and each has a concubine who is loved by the daughter of the Xu family, so the brotherhood is deep.
She is also her father's favorite youngest daughter, and she is also a little close to her today. On such occasions, I am willing to give her face and ask her alone.
The emperor asked, and it was such an occasion, no matter what happened in private, of course she didn't dare to slack off.
Immediately got up with a smile, and replied after saluting, "Thank you Your Majesty for your concern, Jingling went to the East Palace today to disturb the crown princess, and when I saw that the eldest grandson was cute, I played with him for a long time, and I didn't rest at noon, so I was a little distracted at this time." ”
I felt that saying this seemed to accuse the princess of being inconsiderate, so I hurriedly said: "The princess also asked me to rest at noon, but Jingling herself refused, but I didn't expect that at this time, I was a little sleepy, and I made Your Majesty laugh." ”
As soon as she finished speaking, Imakami burst out laughing. She was a little confused, not knowing what she was laughing at.
After a while, Jinshang said again: "I didn't expect that the little county lord went to Jiangnan and came back to be so sensible." Your father and mother couldn't cure you, so they drank more water from the south of the Yangtze River, and people became gentle and considerate. ”
To say that she has become gentle and considerate now does not mean that she was not gentle and considerate in the past. Her sweetheart is in the temple tonight.
Jinghu pouted slightly, "Your Majesty turned out to be laughing at me." When Jingling went to the south of the Yangtze River, it was last summer, and this year it is also summer, and the summer is cold, so don't Jingling grow up and be sensible? ”
Imakami just smiled again and said to her father, "Listen, your daughter is getting more and more breathing." ”
Her father also smiled, turned his face to face Jinghu, but was solemn, "Jingling, don't mess around." ”
She just replied with a word, why is it nonsense. was first laughed at by Jinshang, and then reprimanded by her father in public, the little county lord felt a little faceless, wanted to escape, wanted to be angry, but this is Chang'an Palace.
Fortunately, Jin Shang said: "It's just a joke, what do you really reprimand, I wronged my daughter, and I still feel distressed when I go home." ”
He asked the attendant to give her a plate of white jade grapes placed on his table.
But the little county lord didn't want grapes, she still wanted to escape.
She knew that she was not really embarrassed by her, so she said: "Your Majesty, Jingling wants to go for a walk outside the palace, so she played with Princess Zhenning and drank a few more cups of jade peach brew." ”
Anyway, Ke Mingxu didn't set his eyes on her, so it was better to go out for a walk. When she walked to the temple door, she could get a closer look at him, even if it was only for a moment.
She only drank a few cups of jade peach brew specially for female relatives in the palace during the toast, her father and eldest brother are massive, although she is young, in the little lady of about the same age, it can be regarded as a thousand cups.
Today, as if she was really drunk, her cheeks burned, and about two red clouds had floated.
Seeing her like this today, and thinking that she was her daughter's family, she hurt her face a little, and she wanted to go out, and she didn't allow it. She stood up, supported by Liu Huang, and walked away as if she were outside the temple.
The more he got to the entrance of the hall, the slower his steps became, he wanted to be angry with Ke Mingxu, he knew that she was in the palace, but he didn't look at her, so she didn't want to look at him.
But she couldn't help but look at him as she passed in front of him. He was willing to look at her now, but Jinghu's eyes were also a little confused, ignoring the deep concern in his eyes.
When she arrived outside the hall, she was swept by the night breeze with the heat of You, and she soon got better.
In front of the Chang'an Hall was an empty square, she thought about it, turned around and walked towards the small garden on the west side of the Chang'an Palace.
I don't know why, she always feels that when she enters the palace this time, it seems that many things have changed. It's been a long time since Sister Guannan's affairs have passed, and she knows that she doesn't care too much.
The strangest thing for her was the relationship between the crown prince and the crown princess. She is not complaining about Sister Guannan, the crown princess and the prince are husband and wife, and they should have been in harmony.
In fact, although she is a concubine, she wishes that there would be no more concubines in this world. Although the mother concubine is favored, after all, there is still the princess of the county above, so what's the point of torturing each other like this.
That's why she has always turned a blind eye to the calculations of her mother and eldest brother, pretending to be ignorant and unconscious.
After all, she is also surnamed Jing, and when she is ten years old, she can gradually understand what it means for her father to be friends with the crown prince.
But the princess of the county is his wife, but on such a day, she is intimate with the adoptive mother of the third prince, she is the daughter of the first Dingguo Gong, is it ......
Jinghu shook her head, even if she figured out these things, it wouldn't be interesting, so it was better not to think about it, and continue to be her little county lord happily.
As soon as she looked up, she saw the bright moon in the sky. Although it was not as bright as when the moon was full, it was enough to shine on her.
She sat down at a stone table in the garden.
