Chapter 523: Pull the banner and block back

The matter of sweet potatoes is also related to the livelihood of the people and the development of the country, and even the Queen Mother cannot say that Lin Ruan's excuse is not good.

People can't even take care of marriage in order to promote sweet potatoes, if she has to forcibly marry Lin Ruan at this time, I am afraid that she will be laughed at by the world, saying that as the queen mother of the dynasty, she does not think about solving the suffering for the people, and only focuses on pulling fiber for others to protect the media, isn't it a joke?

It may even cause resentment.

Therefore, the Queen Mother was a little unhappy in her heart, so she had to pat Lin Ruan's hand with a touched face: "Good boy, there is a good child like you in Da Zhou, why worry about not being able to come from generation to generation." Since you have no intention of marriage now, then you can be busy with the promotion of sweet potatoes, and after success, the mourning family will personally choose a good son-in-law for you to ensure that you will be happy in this life. ”

Lin Ruan knelt down and thanked him loudly: "Thank you for the grace of the Queen Mother, and you will go all out to promote the matter, and vow to let my Great Zhou land be full of sweet potatoes, so that there will be no famine in my Great Zhou, and the people will have a surplus." ”

When the Queen Mother heard this, the unhappiness in her heart also dissipated. She also hopes that the people of Dazhou will no longer worry about food, and she hopes that Dazhou will be prosperous.

So the Queen Mother personally got up and helped Lin Ruan up, and asked Mama Hong to arrange a chair and sit next to the Queen Mother.

Those women who had a seven-pronged exquisite heart saw the Queen Mother treating Lin Ruan like this, and their minds became active again. Although this blessed county lord has a bad background, doesn't the old saying "heroes don't ask where they come from".

The county lord of Fuyou has also heard her husband talk about the promotion of sweet potatoes, but with such an identity, they have never experienced the feeling of being hungry, so they will throw this kind of thing behind when they hear it, who will put it in their hearts?

But now it seems that this matter is indeed a big deal, this Fuyou county lord was a peasant woman at the beginning, and she became a township monarch with a few sweet potatoes, and when the sweet potatoes are successfully promoted, there will definitely be a greater reward.

And this credit is for thousands of generations, who mentions the county lord of Fuyou in the future, don't they all have to be grateful to Dade?

What kind of scenery is that?

If the weaker children in the family marry Lin Ruan, they will naturally benefit!

As for the already excellent children in the family, naturally they will not be considered by these ladies.

Excellent children are all pillars of the family, and they naturally want to marry the best girls who are the right people with them, so that they will have more support in the future.

It is self-evident who is more important than the actual interests of a false name.

So the women sitting next to Lin Ruan began to get close to Lin Ruan.

Seeing this, the Queen Mother was finally happier in her heart. Although there is no way to give Lin Ruan's marriage at this time, this matter will also pass through her hands sooner or later. Although Chen'er's marriage was decided by himself, it could not be concluded without the nod of her and the emperor.

Lin Ruan can't do it for the time being, so let's find a way from Chen'er.

Lin Ruan was well aware of the calculations of these wives and the Queen Mother, so in the face of their deliberate enthusiasm, he only lightly echoed two sentences.

Princess Changle sat quietly from beginning to end, watching Lin Ruan deal with the Queen Mother and these wives, and did not say a word to help.

When the hour was almost up, the inner transmission came in to remind the Queen Mother to move to the New Year's Hall.

The Queen Mother got up, took all the women out of the Yongshou Palace, got on the step, and went to the New Year's Palace.

Because Lin Ruan was with Princess Changle, he followed closely behind the Queen Mother's footsteps.

Princess Changle whispered as she walked: "You were quite calm just now, yes, you have the guts, you are still the first one who dares to refuse the Queen Mother like this." ”

Lin Ruan smiled: "I'm just telling the truth, even if I don't have anything to do with your cousin, it is impossible for me to accept the marriage gift of the Queen Mother at this time." ”

Her marriage will never be influenced by others.

When I arrived at the prayer hall, I saw that the emperor was already waiting there with a group of ministers.

Xiao Jingchen stood behind the emperor, his face was indifferent, and his eyes were deep. Seeing Lin Ruan follow the crowd in, Xiao Jingchen glanced at her.

Lin Ruan smiled at him from afar, signaling him not to worry, and then looked away.

The sacrificial activity lasted for nearly half an hour, and although Lin Ruan participated for the first time, there was Princess Changle on the side to guide him, and there were other women as references, so there was nothing wrong.

The royal ritual process was very cumbersome, and after it was over, all the wives had two points of fatigue on their faces. The Queen Mother was a little unable to hold on, so she went back to Yongshou Palace to rest first, and handed over the affairs of the palace banquet to the queen to take care of.

The palace banquet was set up in two places, the emperor led the ministers in the Taiji Palace, and the queen entertained the ladies in the Daming Palace.

The seats at the banquet were also arranged according to the rank of the wives, with the queen sitting in the main seat, and then the concubines and concubines on both sides, as well as other palace concubines. And the next one closest to the main position is naturally the lady of the sect, and then the lady of the first grade, and then from the first grade, the second grade, and so on.

Although Lin Ruan is from the third grade, he has a special identity, and Princess Changle is there, so he sits in the position of the head of the main seat, which is very conspicuous.

On the opposite side of Lin Ruan was the county lord of Mingyue who was angry at her.

Lin Ruan sighed in her heart, if she knew that Princess Changle would arrange it like this, she would definitely find a corner to nest in first.

However, he was calm on his face, and he couldn't see that he was not comfortable at all.

Seeing this, Princess Changle nodded with satisfaction in her heart, she was a person who could handle things.

After everyone was seated, everyone found that there was an empty table in the area where the clan woman was sitting. These seats are all booked in advance, and there will be no changes, so everyone will know who hasn't come.

The queen stood up and said: "Mrs. Zhongxiao suddenly felt unwell, so she took her granddaughter back to the house, you don't have to worry, the palace has already sent someone to visit her house." ”

Lin Ruan raised her eyebrows, Mrs. Zhongxiao is not feeling well? Could it be that it made her angry?

But she didn't pay attention to it, because the palace banquet officially began.

After the silk and bamboo wind music sounded, the maiko dressed in colorful feathers came and danced in the center of the hall.

The inner chuan and the palace ladies began to present dishes one after another and distribute them to various tables.

I have to say that the royal banquet is indeed decent, the music is melodious and tactful, the dancing is graceful, although the dishes are cold, but they look very delicate and beautiful, and the taste should not be too bad.

Lin Ruan's previous reluctance dissipated a little at this time, tasting the slightly cold meal, and then enjoying the beautiful dance, the experience was still quite good.

And in order not to make the palace banquet look dull, a talent show was specially set up. is the daughters of various houses, who can take the initiative or recommend him to perform.

This is the most popular program at the palace banquet, and many ladies have been practicing at home for this moment.
