Chapter 3 Family Banquet Two or Three Things
Su Xia finally got a good night's sleep after coming into this world.
The Seventh Prince didn't come to her for two days in a row, and he was very happy.
Early in the morning of the third day, the old father-in-law of Longzhong came to her house again that night: "Father-in-law Su, father-in-law Su, the prince has summoned you." ”
Su Xia was still asleep, and was woken up, a little angry: "What are you calling me to do so early?" Spoil me so early? ”
The old eunuch's jaw was about to hit the ground, what the hell is this Father-in-law Su, so indecent. "It's not to call you to be pampered, it's a family banquet in the palace today, and the prince wants to take you to participate."
"Family dinner? What is a family feast? Do I have to attend? Su Xia was a little confused.
The father-in-law was through the door, and his voice was very loud: "No, the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, there will be a family banquet in the palace, and all the princes and princesses will go to participate, and the prince will take you there." The voice was so loud that the palace maids, eunuchs, and guards who came and went heard it, covered their mouths and snickered.
Su Xia couldn't bear it anymore and got out of bed, "I know, I'll come after washing up." ”
The father-in-law continued to say loudly at the door: "The prince said, let you not wear eunuch clothes today, I brought you clothes, you wear them better so that you don't lose the people of our palace." ”
What the hell, what does she wear if she doesn't wear a eunuch suit?
Opening the door, the old eunuch stood at the door with a handful of clothes.
She took it and went into the house and dressed herself. The big red flying fish suit is also equipped with a delicate waist sachet and jade pendant. Well, the boot fabric is also good.
Dressed neatly, he and the old eunuch rushed to the door. Don't say that the eunuch is old, the eunuch is not old enough. He ran fast, Su Xia trotted all the way behind him, and soon there were faint beads of sweat in his sideburns.
It was easy to rush to the gate of the palace, and there was a carriage parked, and the vehicle was very luxurious, which was very in line with the luxurious style of the Seven Princes.
Su Xia had no teacher, and was about to climb into the carriage with both hands and feet, but the old eunuch grabbed the back of her robe and screamed: "How can you be a slave who arches the master's carriage?" ”
Su Xia was almost dragged by him.
The prince in the car spoke: "Let him come up." ”
Su Xia climbed up with both hands and feet again, and after climbing to the top, he found that the palace maid was following behind with a pedal. Shame on the family, why didn't you take out the pedals earlier?
She got into the carriage, and the Seventh Prince was reclining in the carriage, munching on melon seeds.
The car was choked with incense, and she sneezed. The red robe that the Seventh Prince is wearing today is very similar to the one on her body.
"What do you see, you think so much when you don't see this king today?" Rong Hao didn't raise his head, and he just teased when he opened his mouth.
Su Xia rolled her eyes and sat down by the door. "Lord Wang, why did you take me with you when you went to the palace?"
"You are my male pet, if you don't take you, will you take Gonggong Li?" Gonggong Li is the old eunuch who runs fast, Su Xia is speechless, it is indeed better to take himself than to take Gonggong Li. But she glanced out of the window, and Li Gongcheng walked with the frame with the dust.
"But what do you mean by bringing me and Grandpa Li there?" Su Xia's mind didn't turn for a while.
Rong Hao continued to swallow melon seeds: "Gonggong Li uses it as a gun, and you use it as a shield." ”
"What? What did you say, lord? Su Xia didn't hear it clearly for a while.
Rong Hao obviously didn't plan to say anything more, but only looked down at his words and swallowed his melon seeds.
The frame staggered all the way to the palace gate. There was already someone waiting at the door from the palace.
Rong Hao got out of the carriage first, and then opened his arms to Su Xia in the car: "Come, jump down, this king will pick you up." ”
What the situation, Su Xia was shocked. But she still jumped down and was hugged by Rong Hao.
Rong Hao whispered in her ear, "Cooperate a little." ”
The palace people on the side thought that they were whispering, and they all covered their mouths and laughed.
The old eunuch beside the emperor came over to salute: "I've seen the Seventh Prince." ”
Rong Hao motioned for him to be excused.
"I heard that the prince has a new pet, it must be this little boy, why does it look so familiar?" The old eunuch's surname is Hu, known as Hu's father-in-law, Su Xia used to work under him for a period of time when he was on an errand in the palace, and later he personally sent Su Xia to the convoy of the Seven Princes' Mansion and the palace, can he be familiar?
Rong Hao smiled meaningfully: "That's naturally familiar, Gonggong Hu, thank you for letting me get such a lovely person." ”
Gonggong Hu had an expression of understanding and led them to the palace.
By the time they arrived at the banquet hall, the other princes and princesses had almost arrived.
The old emperor and the empress sat side by side, and Concubine Liu and Concubine Hua sat on both sides. The seven sons and daughters had seats on each side.
As soon as Rong Hao entered the hall, he gave a big salute first: "See the father, the queen and the queen mother, the queen and the queen of the palace, and the sons and daughters are late." Su Xia also knelt down behind him.
The emperor is old, and he is very happy with his descendants, no matter whether this descendant is a dragon or a worm, as long as it is his own bloodline, he cherishes it tightly.
"Rong Hao is late, I have to drink a few more drinks with my father later, so let's go and sit down without courtesy." The old emperor exempted him.
Rong Hao sat down at the bottom, and his seat was next to the three princes. After he sat down, he commanded the palace people behind him: "Go, bring another chair for this king, this king has brought people." ”
The queen was a little surprised, the other princes all brought the princess, only this youngest son was unmarried, why did he need two chairs? The palace man looked up at the queen, and the queen nodded in acquiescence.
Soon, the back of the chair was taken over.
Rong Hao instructed again: "Take two more cushions." ”
The palace man took another cushion and put it on the chair.
Rong Hao pulled Su Xia, "Come on, Xiao Xia, you sit." ”
Su Xia didn't figure out what the situation was, and sat down obediently. Suddenly, the eyes of the entire banquet hall were cast.
Rong Hao smiled, looked at her dotingly, and gave her a chopstick to steam mandarin fish. Xu Shi noticed that everyone was looking at the two of them, and he turned his head and explained to the emperor and empress: "Father, queen and queen don't know, this is my new male favorite." You see that he is delicate, he is more tired when he comes in, he always cries out that it hurts when he sits in a chair that is too hard, and the doctor also tells him not to eat anything too spicy. After saying that, he showed a smile that you know.
The emperor didn't say much, young people, it's normal to have a little hobby. The queen's face darkened. This son, who has been raised since childhood, why is he so unsuccessful, I knew that I would not choose him back then, and I would choose the third prince.
Su Xia has no face to look at, a male pet, can't sit on a hard stool, can't eat spicy, think about it with his toes and know what's going on, right? Still use it to explain to everyone? What to explain?
The other princesses and princes were used to being so brazen as Rong Hao, and they all showed expressions that I understand. The banquet hall continued to drum and blow the sheng, and Su Xia ate a meal like pins and needles. No, she didn't sit on pins and needles, she sat on a very thick cushion, come on, drag her out and bury her, do you still have the face to live?
The banquet was held until the afternoon.
During the banquet, the emperor inspected the homework of several princes, and the second prince was full of poetry and books, so he naturally took the lead. And Rong Hao is still a manifestation that the mud can't support the wall.
After the banquet, the princes have time to be alone with their biological mothers for a while, and then leave the palace when the time comes.
Su Xia was held by Rong Hao, and followed the queen back to her Fengxiang Palace. The fifth princess, the queen's biological daughter, also followed.
As soon as she entered Fengxiang Palace, the queen's face changed. She shouted, "Come on, please ask this Su Gongzi to go to the side hall to rest." The palace people came to lure Su Xia, Rong Hao reluctantly let go, "You have to take care of my Xiao Xia, put more soft pillows on his chair, and make the tea lighter." ”
Su Xia almost wanted to pull off her ears and throw them on the ground to step on a few feet, but she didn't want to listen to any extra words. followed the palace people and hurriedly retreated.
Sitting in the huge side hall, the palace maids pointed and poked at her from a distance, and could faintly hear "Is it him?" Really handsome. "Yes, yes, our Seventh Lord is so tight." "Hehe, this little eunuch is really blessed." ... Wait for some words.
Su Xia listened to it a lot and got used to it. The girls and boys in the house say this, and some people everywhere say that if they talk too much, they will get thicker and thicker. She asked the palace maids: "Sisters, are there any pastries or preserves here, my mouth is uncomfortable." ”
The palace maids ate and laughed, and after a while, they brought her a plate of melon seeds and a cup of milk tea. Well, it's melon seeds again, and today it's on the bar with melon seeds.
Originally, she thought that she was going to eat melon seeds until the time of the unitary, but she didn't expect Shen Shi to be taken away. Rong Hao looked very unhappy when he left, and he looked a little angry. She followed, not daring to speak.
When they arrived at the palace gate, Gonggong Li had already prepared the carriage and horses, waiting for them to return to the palace together. She still dogged and followed Rong Hao and climbed into his carriage.
All the way back, Rong Hao stopped talking, stopped eating melon seeds, and didn't read the script, so he closed his eyes and slept to recuperate.
Su Xia saw that he was about to arrive at the palace, and patted his arm: "Lord Wang, this is almost the palace." Do I have to follow you later? ”
Rong Hao squinted at him, not to mention, this little eunuch looks really good, it looks good under such light. "No need, you can go back to your room by yourself when you go back, don't bother me."
Susha was granted amnesty.
As soon as the carriage stopped, she jumped eagerly. He ran back to his cabin at a rapid pace. The speed is so fast that even Gonggong Li, who has always acted like the wind, sighed to himself.
When she returned to the room, she changed out of her outfit, this silk clothes, this high-end jade pendant, this exquisite sachet, my God, how much silver does this cost, I have to send it back to the prince quickly, otherwise I can't afford to pay for it.
She folded her robe and took it to the Seventh Prince's bedroom.
The big palace maid guarding outside the house saw her coming, and immediately happily greeted her, "Grandpa Su, did you come to find the prince today?" ”
Su Xia nodded: "It's not, I went to the palace with the prince in the morning, and the clothes haven't been returned to him yet, so I'll give him clothes now." ”
The palace maid nodded, with an expression that I understand, "You can go in by yourself, the prince is reading a book inside, I will be very happy to see you." ”
Su Xia didn't want to go in at all, but seeing that the palace maid was like this, she didn't seem to want to help her hand over things, so she walked in hard.
