Nangong Youjian saw that the second princess had been entangled in the question of Ye Xiaoyan's salute, and wanted to say a few words, but saw Ye Xiaoyan come out and curtsy to Concubine Lu De and Concubine Ye Guifei.

Ye Guifei smiled and accepted the salute.

Concubine Lu De smiled and accepted the salute.

Ye Xiaoyan said: "Today, this concubine entered the palace for the first time. The second princess is right, the younger generation should pay a salute to meet the elders. It's just ......" Ye Xiaoyan hesitated for a moment and said, "Concubine Ben is a little confused, should the matter of salute be judged by seniority?" Or is it by grade? ”

As she spoke, she turned her head to look at the second princess and said, "Please also ask the second princess for advice." ”

The second princess was stunned for a moment. I couldn't answer for a while.

Of course, in terms of grade, she was purely looking for fault in the previous meeting.

Ye Xiaoyan stood gracefully in the center of the banquet, although she was petite, the temperament exuded from her body made people feel that they could not be bullied.

Ye Guifei looked at it, a little stunned. She tried her best to recall what it was like to see this little girl in Ye Mansion. But after thinking about it for a long time, I just can't remember.

Concubine Lu De saw that her daughter couldn't get off the stage, so she glanced at the second princess, Jiang Manrong.

Jiang Manrong hurriedly interjected and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, Princess Xuan, don't embarrass the second imperial sister!" ”

Ye Xiaoyan frowned slightly. Is she embarrassing her? Scold! Scold! Then the second princess asked her to salute on the left and the right asked her to salute just now, what is it? is worthy of being the daughter-in-law of Concubine De's family, and her own family helps her own family. Very good.

Ye Xiaoyan smiled lightly at Jiang Manrong, didn't say anything, and returned to Nangong You's side.

The queen looked coldly. She knows the temperament of everyone here. It's just that I don't know what kind of temperamental person this Princess Xuan is.

She sent someone to look at the front hall in front of her, and the person came back to report that Princess Xuan was dignified and rarely spoken, and she couldn't see what kind of character and temper she was. Now it seems that this Princess Xuan is at least not an unforgiving person.

The queen thought so. But how did she know that at this time, Ye Xiaoyan had countless villains in her heart.

Ye Xiaoyan thought to herself: At the first meeting today, I couldn't figure out the situation, so I endured it. When I have the opportunity, I will let you see what the old lady can't bear to look like.

The queen spoke: "What are you talking about before the meeting?" Chatting so lively? ”

The eldest prince Nangong Yu said: "Queen Mother, we are discussing the birthday of the Queen Mother next month. I have asked my father to hold a 'poetry meeting' among the people. We discussed before the meeting, let Yayun and the second siblings preside, and then hold a 'talented women's meeting'. ”

The eldest princess, Zhao Yayun, heard about it, and was stunned. Turning his head slightly to look at the queen. She didn't know about it.

As soon as the queen heard this, she guessed that it was the second family who proposed it. This Jiang Manrong, if he wants to be in the limelight, he has to pull Yayun together. Her thoughts, the queen probably guessed one or two.

The queen smiled at Nangong Yu and said, "Yu'er, you probably don't know that Yayun is pregnant!" ”

"What?" Nangong Yu was surprised, turned his head to Zhao Yayun and said, "Why didn't you tell me?" ”

Zhao Yayun bowed her head shyly.

The queen said: "Yes, I will be in my palace before, and the imperial doctor came to ask for peace pulse, so I asked the imperial doctor to take a look at her by the way, and found out that it was a happy pulse." The queen was very pleased.

This news was known to several people who would come with the queen before. Only the people who were in this pavilion before didn't know.

When Jiang Manrong heard this, he hurriedly said to Zhao Yayun with a smile: "Congratulations to the eldest sister-in-law!" ”

Zhao Yayun's eyes were shining with maternal brilliance, and she said to Jiang Manrong: "Thank you second brother and sister." ”

Ye Xiaoyan also put on a look of "I envy you so much", and said to Zhao Yayun: "Congratulations to the eldest sister-in-law!" ”

Zhao Yayun also smiled softly: "Thank you, Princess Xuan." ”

The second prince, Nangong Xu, said to the eldest prince: "Brother the eldest emperor, congratulations, you are going to be a father again." ”

The eldest prince happily arched his hand to him to express his gratitude.

The eldest prince and Zhao Yayun already have two daughters. One is 5 years old and the other is 4 years old.

Before the eldest princess gave birth to a son, the queen did not allow Nangong Yu to marry a side concubine. Of course, concubines can still be had, as long as they don't have children.

The queen was afraid that the son of the side concubine was born before Zhao Yayun. So what will she, her niece, do in the future? If the eldest prince becomes the crown prince and becomes the emperor in the future, Zhao Yayun will not have the eldest son by his side, and his future situation will be worrying.

Just like the current Queen Mother, she is not the emperor's biological mother. Out of etiquette, they honored the Queen Mother. But the one who is truly filial is still the emperor's biological mother, Concubine Hui. Concubine Hui died seven years ago, and they used their filial piety on the Queen Mother.

She was a little envious of Concubine De's Jiang Manrong. The two gave birth to a son in the second year of marriage, and they are now both 4 years old.

The queen sighed inwardly. Alas! Why is his niece's stomach not angry? I hope this baby is a son. Nangong Yu told her several times that she wanted to marry a side concubine, but she stopped her alive or dead. If this third one is still a daughter, she is afraid that she will not be able to stop her son from marrying a side concubine.

Ye Xiaoyan looked at these people to congratulate them and congratulate them, and all they said were beautiful words of compliment. This banquet, which was supposed to be for them to enter the palace to thank them, turned into a wedding banquet to congratulate the eldest princess on her pregnancy.

Ye Xiaoyan rarely spoke throughout the whole process. It's just that when others talk to her, they act like they're listening. When you don't finish, nod your head, smile politely back, or give a thumbs up. Substantive language, not a word.

Nangong Yu was deserted throughout the whole process. Except for the beginning when he congratulated Nangong Yu and smiled, at the back, his facial expression became more and more cold.

Finally, the so-called palace banquet ended.

Nangong You and Ye Xiaoyan got into the carriage of King Xuan's Mansion. Ye Xiaoyan immediately drooped down her upright body and leaned loosely on the wall of the carriage.

Nangong You asked, "Tired, right?" ”

"Hmm." Ye Xiaoyan is weak.

"How's your injury?" Nangong You had been thinking about the injury to her ribs.

Ye Xiaoyan had a spirit in her head.

The injury was a little painful, but she had a good tolerance for pain, so it wasn't very good. She was seriously injured with Nangong Yu before, this will be ......

"Shhh She exhaled in pain at the right time, frowned, looked like she had endured for a long time, and finally could exhale the pain, and said with difficulty: "I want to go back and lie down." ”

"Breeze!" Nangong Youchong shouted outside the carriage: "Go home immediately." ”

"Yes." Qingfeng replied outside.

Go back faster than you came. It didn't take long to arrive at the Xuanwang Mansion.

The carriage drove to the gate of the north courtyard, and Nangong You called the green branch to come over to support the princess.

All the weight of Ye Xiaoyan's body was pressed on the green branch. Green Branch was a little worried: Is the princess's injury worsening?

And Ye Xiaoyan is purely tired and lazy.

It was only afternoon when they returned to the palace. Ye Xiaoyan entered the bedroom, changed out of her dress, climbed into bed, and prepared to take a nap.

Green Branch said, "Princess, don't sleep yet. Wait for the slave to bring your medicine, drink the medicine and go to sleep. She was really worried about the deterioration of the princess's injuries.

Nangong You was also worried. He looked at Ye Xiaoyan's face carefully all the way, for fear that she would make a mistake.

Fortunately, Ye Xiaoyan was really tired, and her face was tired along the way. I can't tell if it's because I've been pretending to be dignified for a long time, I'm tired of myself, or because of my rib injury, I don't look very good.
