Chapter 223: Don't Drink

Jia Kangdi put on the newly made auspicious clothes, looked at Li Zhong, who was busy in front of and behind him, and suddenly asked.

"Did the queen eat well today?"

Li Zhong's bent waist stiffened, and he said stiffly.

"If you go back to the emperor, Niangniang...... Still don't want to eat it. ”

Li Zhong watched Empress Chu eat a lot of things in the "company" of Jiakangdi that day, but she was not enjoying delicious food at all, she was completely dealing with Jiakangdi.

Li Zhong knew that Emperor Jia Kangdi must have known it, but just seeing that the queen was willing to eat, he automatically ignored the queen's emotions.

Jia Kangdi frowned when he heard it, how can this still be like a child, someone stares and no one stares at it is completely different, Jia Kangdi thought about leaving the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet early tonight to stare at Chu Shumo and eat.

Jiang Ronghua, who was dressed brightly outside the door, scratched the carved porch hard, listening to the real concern of Jia Kangdi in the house, and the smile on the corner of his mouth could no longer be maintained.

This year's Chinese New Year's Eve banquet should have been like in previous years, with Jiang Guifei replacing Empress Chu to accompany Jia Kangdi to attend, but Jia Kangdi waited left and right in the Yangxin Hall and waited only for a sentence from the emperor of Xirui Palace.

Jia Kangdi looked at the little eunuch who was sent back and forth, frowned and asked in a deep voice.

"What's wrong with the concubine?"

The little eunuch couldn't say a reason for a long time, Emperor Jiakang was inexplicably bored, dropping the chain at this time was deliberately making people feel uncomfortable, especially when this person was the emperor.

Jia Kangdi's inner discomfort expanded several times, and the result was that he really didn't care about Jiang Ronghua and went to the New Year's Hall alone.

Tong Qingyan met the Queen Mother this year very steadily, no one found fault and there was no stumbling block for the Queen Mother, just like a transparent person sitting there holding a teacup and listening to the chirping in her ears.

Princess Xiu sat beside Tong Qingyan, looking at the county lord of Yanyang, who was too void in her fugue, Princess Xiu stretched out a finger and shook it before pulling Tong Qingyan's soul back.

"What do you think? So distracted? ”

Princess Xiu looked at Tong Qingyan with an expression that I understand, and Tong Qingyan smiled without denying it, revealing a kind of shyness and shyness that a woman who is about to marry should have.

Princess Xiu now has a son who has everything to do, and she privately told King Xiu that she would stay away from the government and be an idle prince, not to mention how moisturizing her life is now.

"I heard that the maid in the Huaiwang Mansion who was confused with the eldest prince died, do you know the inside story of this matter?"

Princess Xiu leaned over and whispered in Tong Qingyan's ear, Tong Qingyan shook her head.

"How can I know the inside story that His Royal Highness the Prince doesn't know?! However, this matter is somewhat because of the family affairs of the Huai Wangfu and the Zhang family, and I don't know what happened to this family after the New Year. ”

"What else?! Since they all agreed to the end, and it was finalized in front of the civil and military officials and the emperor at the court meeting, if you regret the marriage again, I am afraid that the reputation of the Huai Wangfu will be completely ruined...... Uh, I didn't mean you, I just ......"

"I understand."

Tong Qingyan and Princess Xiu got together and muttered together, and it was another scene in the eyes of the Queen Mother, Aunt Qin had always understood the Queen Mother's mind best, and immediately called Princess Xiu.

Princess Xiu looked up when she heard the sound, and Aunt Qin spoke for the Queen Mother with a smile that was not smiling.

"The Queen Mother misses the emperor's eldest grandson, I don't know if Princess Xiu can bring the child into the palace today?"

was named, naturally she couldn't pretend to be deaf and dumb, Princess Xiu slowly stood up and walked to the center and bowed to the Queen Mother.

"The child is led by the prince to meet his father, and the queen mother is worried about the blessing of the child, so the son will send someone to bring the child."

The queen mother's orders are orders, but the emperor is the biggest, the reason why Princess Xiu asked King Xiu to take the child to the New Year's Hall is that she doesn't want her baby son to come to this place where women gather, in case anyone accidentally touches it, it will be too unlucky.

Although there are many men on the emperor's side, they all have their own thoughts, but at least they will not be filthy enough to attack a child.

Princess Xiu said this because she expected that the Queen Mother would not force her to see the child, and sure enough, Aunt Qin looked at the Queen Mother and immediately raised her voice.

"That's it, the emperor feels sorry for the eldest grandson, naturally he will stay by his side and love well, and he will naturally be able to see it at the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, and there is no need to work for the children to suffer on this cold day."

"Yes, the sons and daughters have thanked the Queen Mother, and I hope that the Queen Mother will have a future every year."

Princess Xiu returned to her seat and immediately bit her ears with Tong Qingyan, no matter how attentive the people in the seat were, they couldn't hear what the two were muttering, and it invisibly gave people the feeling that Princess Xiu and Lord Yanyang had become close friends in the boudoir.

"You will also encounter such a thing in the future, please let the child stay with His Royal Highness the Prince, there are too many twists and turns in our woman's family, and it is impossible to prevent it."

Tong Qingyan nodded approvingly, but when she thought of her body's age, she didn't even come to the decay water, so what else to talk about having a child?!

People on both sides gathered at the prayer hall to start the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, which is similar every year, because of last year's events, Princess Xiu more or less attracted most of the attention as soon as she appeared, especially a very festive milk doll to set off.

Tong Qingyan was pulled by Princess Xiu to sit next to her, although it was a little unruly, but because of the identity of the county lord, it was reasonable to reluctantly sit together as an aunt and sister-in-law.

Princess Xiu teased the baby with all kinds of snacks, and Tong Qingyan looked at it from the side, as if she had returned to the time when Brother Ping was born.

After Jia Kangdi's year-end greeting, the New Year's dance choreographed by the Ministry of Rites began, and this year learned the lessons of last year, and the dancers all performed their dancing postures in the center of the main hall of the prayer hall honestly and properly.

Jia Kangdi was so distraught that he almost touched the wine glass, Li Zhong looked at it several times in shock, Jia Kangdi's strange appearance can be found as long as he has a heart, Jiang Ronghua completely fell into his eyes, and the nails placed under the table were extremely delicately decorated, and they had been broken into two at this moment.

Tong Qingyan turned her head sideways and let the palace maid pour wine, although not a drop was stained, but what should be done was still to be done, before entering the palace, Tong Qingyan specially asked Feiyan to sew a cotton mat about the size of the sleeve, neatly sewn in the sleeve, the wine in the wine glass is limited, so it is no problem to hold on until the end of the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet.

Princess Xiu also breastfeeds occasionally, so the wine has not moved, but the palace maid always has to pour wine, and it is not appropriate for the wine glass to be so full all the time, Tong Qingyan thoughtfully took Princess Xiu's wine glass, pretended to drink it, raised it to her lips and waved her sleeves to cover it and poured it off, when she suddenly smelled a trace of fish.

This fishy smell is very special, but it is very peaceful when it appears in fruit wine, Tong Qingyan put down the wine glass, picked up the wine glass in front of her with an ugly face and pretended to drink it to her lips and smelled it.

It also smells fishy! Tong Qingyan's face instantly became ugly, and her eyes looked straight at Song Zhan's position, just in time to see Song Zhan holding up the wine glass and clinking glasses with the Xiu Wang next door.

"Don't drink!"
