The Queen Mother put on a heavy crown dress and walked out with the support of Aunt Qin, and everyone in the hall gathered their minds and stood waiting for the Queen Mother to sit down, kneeling down one by one and saluting.

"The third family is exempt from courtesy, just sit when you are pregnant."

"Grandmother Xie."

Shi's hands were naturally folded in front of his lower abdomen, and he looked very cautious, but the joy in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows was also real.

Seeing Shi sit down, the Queen Mother put her eyes on the kneeling people in the hall, and when her eyes swept over Tong Qingyan who was hanging her head, she squinted slightly.

"Get up, today is the Chinese New Year's Eve feast, don't talk about so many rules."

"Empress Dowager Xie, Empress Dowager Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose."

Those who are qualified to sit are all graded, Tong Qingyan is also qualified to sit because of the identity of the county lord, and because the county lord is from the first grade, this seat is still very high, and it happened that he was arranged to sit on the left side of the Shi family, and directly opposite the Shi family is the second princess.

"Isn't there any news from the second family?"

The second princess, who was named by the Queen Mother, was stunned, and subconsciously glanced at Shi's stomach opposite, embarrassed.

"The imperial grandmother forgives her sins, and the granddaughter-in-law is useless, and she ...... Not yet. ”

"The heir has not arrived, so don't be too anxious, Concubine De, what did the imperial doctor say to the second family's request for peace? If it is useless, tell the mourning family, and the imperial doctor of the mourning family can show the second family. ”

There are many imperial doctors in the palace, and only the full-time imperial doctors of the Queen Mother, Emperor and Empress can be called imperial doctors.

"After thanking the mother, the concubine must take good care of the Pu'er family."

The Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction, and said some words of comfort to comfort the second princess, Tong Qingyan listened to the Queen Mother's words, and then looked at the second princess's head lower and lower, feeling bored for a while.

Most of the women in this world are appendages, they are attached to the family before they get married, and they are attached to that man after they get married, and if they want to gain a foothold in their in-laws' family, the children are the only ones to rely on, which is really sad.

The Queen Mother's behavior of clearly comforting but actually increasing the pressure, a few people present didn't understand, in fact, they all understood but didn't say it, Concubine De was even more grateful, and today the Queen Mother was so worried, I'm afraid that the mood of turning her head and urging the second princess to have a child will only be more urgent.

Tong Qingyan couldn't help but think of Song Zhan, today he will accompany Princess Huai into the palace to the banquet, and Princess Huai is estimated to be coming soon.

"Princess Huai has come to see you—"

The long singing voice of the eunuchs outside the palace gate came, really saying that Cao Cao Cao was here.

Princess Huai Chen Yan walked into the hall with the bright moon, looking at the Queen Mother who she hadn't seen for a long time, and the smile on her face seemed to be seeing her mother.

"The concubine knocks on the queen mother, and the mother is blessed with Jin'an."

"Get up, the mourning family hasn't seen you for a while, how are you lately?"

Chen Yan took a bottle from Mingyue's hand and walked towards the Queen Mother with great interest, Tong Qingyan's eyes fell on the bottle, and she could guess what was inside.

"Queen Mother, today the concubine brought something delicious to honor you."

"What is it?"

"The concubine got a recipe, this milk tea doesn't smell fishy, it's still very delicious, you can taste it."

Princess Huai took the empty teacup and poured a small half cup of milk tea out, and several people sitting close to her smelled a sweet milk fragrance and paid attention to the cup of milk tea.

The Queen Mother took the milk tea handed by Chen Yan in front of everyone, and raised her right hand slightly to stop Aunt Qin's behavior of stepping forward to test for drugs.

"It's really delicious, and it doesn't smell fishy at all."

"If the Queen Mother likes it, the concubine will give this recipe to Aunt Qin, and the Queen Mother can drink it whenever she wants in the future."

Princess Huai and the Queen Mother came and went, and everyone's curiosity about the milk tea became stronger and stronger, especially Shi's, at this moment, his eyes were tightly glued to the bottle, smelling the sweet milk, and swallowed his saliva silently.

"Imperial grandmother, is it good for granddaughter-in-law to be cheeky and ask for a cup of milk tea?"

Shi Yan opened his mouth with a smile, and everyone's eyes gathered again, Shi touched his stomach and smiled softly.

"The granddaughter-in-law is pregnant with this child, nothing else, but this appetite is really good, this milk tea tastes so good, the granddaughter-in-law smells greedy. There is always a fishy smell of milk tea boiled in the house, and I panicked when I smelled it, and I hoped that the emperor's grandmother would give half a cup to her granddaughter-in-law. ”

"If the mourning family doesn't give it to you today, maybe tomorrow there will be a reputation for abusing your great-grandson, Qin Zhu quickly pour a cup for the third princess."

"Yes."

"That's it, everyone present has a share, you look at it, everyone can taste it."

"Yes."

"Thank you for the reward."

Everyone in the hall got up one after another to thank him, looked at the small half cup of milk tea brought by the palace people, tasted it with a little novelty, and whispered to each other, and the atmosphere in the hall was extremely harmonious.

Tong Qingyan drank the two sips of milk tea that she had given herself, and in the corner of her eye, the personal maid of the third princess reached out and knocked and pulled the sleeve of the third princess, and the third princess just raised the tea cup to her lips, then put down the tea cup and lifted the handkerchief and nodded her lips, and talked about the taste of this milk tea with a smile with everyone.

Tong Qingyan silently glanced at the untouched milk tea of the third princess, retracted her gaze and continued to sit down.

When Emperor Jia Kang arrived at Cining Palace, everyone had just finished the exchange of milk tea, and the Queen Mother looked at Emperor Jia Kangdi, who seemed to be kneeling down and saluting, with a loving face, and raised her hand.

"The queen mother is willing to participate in this Chinese New Year's Eve banquet this year, and the son should pay New Year's greetings to the queen mother, and the ceremony is not fully expressed and incomplete."

"The emperor is right in everything, and the mourning family doesn't dare to have an opinion."

Such a picture of mother's kindness and filial piety immediately attracted everyone's praise, only Tong Qingyan looked at the emperor and the queen mother with complicated eyes.

How to say it, the mother and son filial piety shown by these two people are impeccable, which perfectly makes Tong Qingyan always feel weird, but she can't say it.

After a brief chat with the Empress Dowager, Jia Kangdi led everyone in the Cining Palace to the Taihe Hall where the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet was held.

In addition to Concubine De to Cining Palace, the remaining three concubines and concubines are all in the Taihe Palace, and all the princes and princes and ministers have already taken their seats from the Jiaotai Hall to the Taihe Hall when the emperor went to Cining Palace.

After the emperor and empress and the empress dowager sat down in the Taihe Hall, the ceremony was over, and the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet officially began.

This year, the queen is still the latest to come, but it is only with the queen mother and the emperor, the queen is full of ceremonies, and the scene is also very magnificent and gorgeous.

Tong Qingyan is very curious about this queen based on her general understanding of the nobles in the palace during this period of time.

These upper-class people in the capital are still very obsessed with the family, and Tong Qingyan is curious about how the concubine of the Liupin petty official family became a handkerchief with the queen of the Chuge's hometown.

It is rumored that the two met in the women's school, but few people know the details of the acquaintance except for the parties, after all, there are not many girls from high-ranking families who do not invite famous teachers to teach at home but go to the women's school to study in the public school, at least people like the Chu family should not go, but the queen went at that time.

Tong Qingyan was immersed in her own thoughts, and she didn't have much enthusiasm for the meals at the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet in the palace, and she was basically cold and couldn't eat a few chopsticks.

Looking at those ministers' wives who seem to have eaten unprecedented deliciousness, Tong Qingyan admires it.

Tong Qingyan sat at the bottom of the princesses, except for the princess who had already married, the rest of the princesses who sat with her were the fifth princess, the sixth princess, the seventh princess and the ninth princess.

The status of these four princesses' biological mothers is not very high, and although they are curious about Tong Qingyan, the county lord, they don't dare to talk to her rashly, but they give Tong Qingyan a certain amount of freedom to be alone.

The dancing girls in the hall dancing with the music were graceful, Tong Qingyan looked at it for a while and was dizzy by their waving sleeves, and when she retracted her gaze, she fell in the direction of Song Zhan, but unfortunately the distance was too far to see his face clearly, so she lowered her head and continued to compete with Leng Cai.

Just as Tong Qingyan was picking and choosing the food, suddenly an exclamation came, only to see the third princess holding her stomach and falling down, and the maid beside her pounced on her back.

The dance music in the hall suddenly stopped, and when it stopped, Shi's cry of pain became more obvious, and Concubine Xian anxiously ran to the side of the third princess, and the third prince himself was shocked by this change and was stunned there.

The concubine looked at the chaotic scene all of a sudden, frowned unhappily, but did not dare to delay, and hurriedly sent someone to the side hall to invite the imperial doctor who was placed there just in case.

When the imperial doctor, who had eaten half of the meal, was pulled to the scene, he secretly called out that he was unlucky as soon as he saw that something was wrong, but he was on duty today, and he was looking for someone to think about changing shifts a month ago, but no one was willing to let go, and he wanted to come, and the royal banquet was most afraid of going wrong, and no one wanted to be on an errand.
