Chapter 202: The End is also the Beginning 2
The emperor was poisoned and drowsy, and the queen was asleep. Concubine Qing got her wish, and the stupid prince's ambition swelled. Princess Xiangxiang knows the big secret. These subtle changes in the palace do not affect the wedding couple's cave room candles.
The three-day makeup gift is the process for the bride to go, and it is also an opportunity for girlfriends to accumulate contacts. After the palace wedding, the groom's family has to hold several tables of banquets for relatives and friends. From this point of view, it is almost the same as modern marriage. Modern people pay attention to money exchanges, and in ancient times, they did not rise to such a high level of philistine. It's more of a little bit of a gadget.
It was already approaching evening when King Joy and Poplar returned from the palace feast. The old butler hurriedly reported the banquet for the second day, and the King of Joy remained in his study. Bai Wan'er also handed over the makeup gift list to Bai Yang. The two children also talked about the wedding with great interest.
"Sister, the emperor is an old man, and the concubine is still so young and beautiful. Standing with the third prince, it seems to be his sister. I heard that the emperor has been sick for a long time, isn't it good yet, he always stares at me during the wedding banquet. It's kind of annoying. Xiao Rou's face was full of displeasure.
"Xiaorou, the emperor was poisoned and hurt his brain. He must have seen that our Xiaorou was well-behaved and cute, so he took a few more looks. "Poplar sounded the alarm bell in his heart, is it blood and family? Poison Venerable now appeared in front of Xiao Rou, and his appearance changed slightly. Otherwise, it will be carved out of a mold. When the emperor saw Xiao Rou, it was normal for him to think of Poison Venerable. Poison Zun covered up Xiaorou's life experience with the queen, and I am afraid that the old emperor will be suspicious again.
"Sister, that bad prince has always had an iron blue face, but he was angry with you and your brother-in-law. There is also Meng Dan on the Beiling Continent, who looks quite good, just a horizontal face and fierce one. He has done so many bad things, and he is embarrassed to come over to toast his sister and grandfather and brother-in-law. Xiaoqiang said angrily.
"Xiaoqiang, this is royal affection, even if you want the other party to die, you must still do what you should do in terms of face. That Mundan is full of poison, but it's not just as fierce. The words of the two children also reminded Poplar of the wedding banquet in the palace.
The old emperor and Concubine Qing sat on the main seat, accompanied by the leaders of the envoys of the Beiling, Nanling, and Xiling. Then there is the King of Freedom, and the prince and the three princes who are married make a table. Several other couples who had been married by the royal family sat at a table. Then there were the courtiers and their families, and the wedding banquet was placed in the main hall of the Great Yan Kingdom.
The ladies who sent off their relatives all followed their masters. Bai Wan'er stood beside Bai Yang, and the mountain flowers were naturally guarding Xiao Rou and Xiao Qiang.
With the lesson of prostration, this time the prince did not rush to sit in the first place. Reluctantly, he sat in the position of the King of Freedom. The three princes sat on the other side of the Easy King. Except for the crown prince and Meng Dan, the rest of the people at this table were in a good mood. Ling Ling and Ling Wei were originally closer to Poplar than others, and Princess Xiangxiang and Miss Mei Lan on the Nanling Continent received the makeup gift of Poplar Moon Pearl. The mentality that was originally not much hostile has turned into worship, and they have already seen that the third prince and the king have a good relationship. If you want to win the hearts of the three princes, you can only show favor to Princess Yao. In such a comparison, the crown prince and Meng Dan have become different people.
This made the prince's mood even worse. In the past, which of the three princes of the second batch did not look at the head of his own horse. The Easy King is back, and it all looks like it's changed. He was unwilling to pretend to be smiling, but his smile was more ugly than crying.
When everyone went to toast the emperor and the concubine, it was either the prince or the concubine. He didn't know how to position Meng Dan, but fortunately, Concubine Qing was such a shrewd person. A sentence is a son and daughter-in-law, and the embarrassment is resolved. It not only did not lose the face of the Great Yan Kingdom, but also gave the people on the Beiling Continent enough face.
At the wedding banquet, it is forbidden to push the cup and change the lamp. The prince learned to be obedient this time, but he also refused to lose face.
"Second brother, I didn't know that you had recovered, and I didn't think about it enough, so it's better for the second brother not to be angry." The prince was the first to pick up the wine glass, looked at the King of Joy and said with a fake smile.
"Crown prince and royal brother, each other. This king acts first and foremost about the country, and then about the small family. It is not aimed at the crown prince and the royal brother, the father's health is gradually improving. Our brothers should share their father's worries more. One sentence shows the determination of the King of Joy to return to the court.
"Second Imperial Sister-in-law, Meng Dan also toasts you."
"Thank you, third brother and sister, fourth brother and sister, fifth brother and sister, for the sake of us becoming a family, drink this glass of wine. In the future, we will be royal courtiers and concubines, and the second imperial sister-in-law welcomes you to Xiaoyao Palace. Poplar glanced at Meng Dan faintly, and then raised his wine glass and greeted.
"Second Emperor Xie's sister-in-law." The three princes and the four princes all married side concubines, and only the fifth prince married the main concubine. Compared to Meng Dan, who is just a concubine with no name, it goes without saying that his status is high. Princess Xiaoyao didn't greet her, and others didn't want to see her.
Everyone was happy to eat this meal, and several princes even asked King Xiaoyao to talk about what they had seen and heard when they traveled abroad in those years. Several concubines and concubines also talked about things between women. Everyone avoided King Xiaoyao to go out in order to find out the cause of the death of the concubine, who was once a begging girl. Only the crown prince and Meng Dan were isolated, and no matter how good the wine and food were, they were tasteless.
The prince was angry and wanted to flip the table several times, and Meng Dan hated to poison all these people. But in front of the poplar, he didn't dare to do anything. The couple's hatred for Poplar increased even more.
"Sister, the prince is a ruthless person. You and your brother-in-law should be careful in the future. Bai Wan'er didn't look at the surface like the two children, she reminded calmly.
"Wan'er, sister, what do they dare to do here? I don't have that ability either. But you have to be careful. ”
"Sister, Wan'er is now also a petty official in the court. Do they still dare to do anything to the court officials of the Great Yan Kingdom? ”
"Wan'er, they don't dare to do it clearly, and they can't prevent it if they make small moves in secret. Sister Xiaorou and Sister Xiaoqiang will often take them with them, and the most worrying thing is your safety. ”
"Sister, Wan'er doesn't have to go to court every day, and now she also has royal guards and the guards of the White Palace. Sister, don't worry. Bai Wan'er said without mind.
After Xiaoyaomaru took care of tomorrow's banquet, he returned to his new house with Poplar. Wan'er left with Xiao Rou and Xiao Qiang. The husband and wife began to enjoy the world of two. Unexpectedly, Concubine Yun's family came to the door.
The Yunwang Mansion in the capital is also a big family. He, like the White Palace, belongs to the prince with a foreign surname. Most of the girls in the Yunwang Mansion have entered various high-ranking clans. The relationship with the royal and the leading figures in the imperial city is intricate.
Concubine Yun kidnapped Princess Xiaoyao's sister, and Concubine Yun was imprisoned in a secret room by Princess Xiaoyao again. When it happened, together with the fact that the King of Joy was completely healed, it belonged to the secrets of the King of Ease. Even if Yunfu heard the wind at that time, he didn't dare to come to the door to ask for someone, but now that King Xiaoyao has appeared in front of people, all the secrets have been revealed. Yun Wang Ye Yun and Princess Yun took people to the Xiaoyao Mansion to theorize.
"Yang'er, tell the old housekeeper to deal with this matter. These people will not see the good life of this king. King Xiaoyao hugged the poplar and said reluctantly.
"Lord, things started because of the concubine, and the concubine has her own concubine to face them. Our husband and wife have been coming for a long time, and we are not in a hurry to do so overnight. Poplar smiled and left the arms of the King of Ease, and went to the front yard after tidying up his mood.
"Tell the princess to come out, but a begging girl flew up the branch and made a phoenix. I also dare to put my concubine of the Yunwang Mansion in the secret room. She is the concubine of the King of Freedom who has entered the royal disc, what right does Poplar have to do this. "I was still far away from the living room when I heard the voice of Princess Yun shouting.
"Princess Yun left her virtue in her mouth, and the so-called heroes don't ask where they come from. My princess is also married to the royal family. Concubine Yun kidnapped the princess's sister, why can't the princess punish her with a small punishment? The old housekeeper disdained to quarrel with women, and it was Shanhua who spoke.
"What is the matter with you as a slave when the master speaks? When the beggar girl locked my daughter in the secret room, she was not married, what kind of princess was a free princess. ”
"Princess Yun, everyone in the capital knows that before the five-year election, I, Baiyang, had already been hired with King Xiaoyao. At that time, the prince of my family knew about it. When he left the palace, he was also poisoned by the villain's plot. So far, no one has been found who poisoned her, and this princess suspects that it was your Yunwang Mansion who did it? Before the poplar man walked into the living room, he took Princess Yun's words in the courtyard and asked.
