Chapter 42 It's all the credit of the crown princess
At dinner time on the second night, the entire Qingning Palace stood at the gate of the palace and waited for the emperor's arrival. When the people around the emperor came to pass the word, everyone knelt down in unison, just waiting for the emperor Jin Bu to step into the Qingning Gate.
"Greetings to Your Majesty, Your Majesty is blessed."
I saw that Emperor Lin Shen was wearing a lilac dragon pattern robe, looking at him in a very good mood, with a faint smile between his eyebrows, and he saw Lin Zhen kneeling on the ground and helped him up with his own hands.
"Get up." The Emperor smiled at the rest of the crowd.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
It seems to be just an ordinary father-son interaction, but for Shu Ning, a person with a semi-"God perspective", it is really unusual.
You must know that at this time, it is only a year since the crown prince was abolished, and the relationship between father and son can be said to have reached the freezing point, not to mention that the emperor can personally support the prince, even if the emperor can show a smile to the prince, it is extremely difficult.
Vaguely, Shu Ning had a feeling that he didn't quite understand the plot.
"Alright, let's go in and eat." The emperor smiled and patted Prince Lin Jiao's shoulder, and his smiling face remained unchanged.
Not only Shu Ning was surprised, but also the crown prince Lin Ji was a little surprised, in the face of the emperor's affection and kindness, he had always been polite and dignified, but he also had a moment when he couldn't react.
There are also some scrambles.
Shu Ning suddenly felt a little like laughing, if Lin Ji was asked to recall his expression after a while, he was afraid that he would not know what expression to be.
It's exciting to think about.
However, he naturally couldn't show it too obviously, so he could only follow the emperor and the prince into the side hall of the Tihua Hall to have dinner so respectfully.
Some palace people have already prepared meals on the dinner table, just waiting for the emperor to sit down and serve hot food.
There is a large round table in the hall, with three seats, and the position of the natural relief is vacant. This is where the rules lie, whether it is in the folk or in the palace, the daughter-in-law can never go to the table to eat, and can only serve the role from the side.
Although Su Ning can't understand it, he can only "accept".
Soon, the palace people came in with food boxes and plates, offering all kinds of fresh and rare ingredients, all of which were the things that the emperor and the crown prince Lin Ji loved to eat.
Shu Ning respectfully served Emperor Lin Shen and Prince Lin Ji to sit down, during which the palace people had already set up meals. So Shu Ning cleaned his hands, picked up his chopsticks and stood aside to serve.
Only then did the emperor notice that Shu Ning was still standing aside and did not sit down, but was kind and friendly: "The crown princess, sit down." ”
Shu Ning naturally has to excuse himself, what is the rule, what filial piety etiquette.
The emperor waved his hand and disagreed: "These are all folk rules, we are heaven, the meaning of this rule is obtained, you sit down and eat together." ”
Lin Ji also said in a low voice: "Father told you to sit down, you just sit down and eat." ”
Shu Ning could only nod: "Thank you, father." ”
So, this dinner began in this embarrassing and solemn but with a little warmth.
Shu Ning put on a supporting role very calmly, only smiling with a hot face, as for what the father and son said, she planned to turn a blind eye.
But I don't want to, what the emperor said is really related to himself.
"These days, the ladies in Beijing are popular to wear imitation emeralds, and for a while, the real emeralds are not as used as before. said that it saved a lot of expenses in this way, and even the old ministers and officials of the previous dynasty expressed their appreciation for this matter. The emperor turned his head to the place and said to the concubine: "It's all the credit of the crown princess." ”
