Chapter 183: The Queen's Birthday Banquet (3)
It's already time for the feast.
Although the queen wants to hold a flower-viewing banquet outside, it is a pity that the weather today is not very good, and there are gusts of wind from time to time, even if the palace masters can resist it, but the queen herself can't withstand this kind of wind.
So even if the queen is unwilling, there is no way but to hold it indoors.
When they arrived late, the wives had already reached seventy-seven, eighty-eight, but a princess to be married was naturally not going to deal with the wives for a long time, but they just found their own seats and sat down.
On the side, it's the seventh princess and the eighth princess I saw last time.
The relationship between the two has always been good, and the two of them sat together early, and when they saw Chi Chi, they even stood up and saluted.
"I haven't seen the fifth sister for many days, I wonder if the fifth sister is okay?"
Chi Chi smiled, "Thank you sister for asking, everything is fine." ”
The seventh princess said, "Actually, the two sisters have always wanted to visit the fifth sister, but they have always heard that the fifth sister is not in good health, and I heard before that the fifth sister is not even the eldest brother, and the younger sisters are only afraid that they will disturb the rest of the sister, so they dare not come to disturb, and please don't blame the royal sister." ”
The light in Chi Chi's eyes flashed, and then he smiled, "Originally, it was just that my own body was not angry, and it was nothing in the end, if I wanted to trouble the two sisters to go, it would be mine, so what is there to blame for this." ”
The eighth princess also laughed, "I'll just say, how can our fifth sister be such a stingy person, the fifth sister has always been generous, and she treats us very well, if your sister takes the east wind in the future, please don't forget your sisters." ”
The seventh princess turned her head and glanced at the eighth princess, and then said, "These eight sisters have always been open-mouthed when they speak, and the imperial sister should not care." ”
Chi Chi shook his head, "Eighth sister is quick to talk, what I said makes me feel a lot closer." ”
The eighth princess wanted to say more, but Chi Chi preemptively said, "The mother hasn't come here yet, I'll go change my clothes first, and the sisters will do their own thing." ”
The two of them couldn't speak anymore, so they could only say, "Sister Huang is leaving." ”
Chi Chi took Ah Wei out, Ah Wei was strange, it didn't take two minutes to sit down at the beginning, Chi Chi is not this kind of person who is easy to run to the toilet, plus before they go out in the morning, it is to avoid easy to change clothes, so they don't even drink much water.
"Your Highness, are we going to change our clothes?"
Chi Chi where would he really want to go to the toilet, but he came out with Ah Wei and sat on the edge of the water pavilion for a while, "I was impatient to take care of them, so I said that I wanted to change my clothes and run out like this." ”
Ah Wei understood, she nodded, "That's right, the behavior of these two princesses is too different from before, and those who don't know think that they really just changed people, and it's not similar to before at all." ”
Chi Chi smiled, "Aren't most of the people in the palace like this?" The attitude towards me at the beginning was nothing more than that I felt that I was not worthy of telling them to be careful, and I felt that my status in this palace was the lowest one, and I couldn't do anything about stepping on my feet. ”
Ah Wei couldn't help but snort, "It's really such a big face, if you have the ability, don't cater to His Highness's bend like today, just the groveling look just now, saying that they are the servants of which palace, I'm afraid some people will believe it." ”
However, Awei still didn't understand a little, "But Your Highness, why do they have such an attitude towards you?" Could it be that they have noticed something? ”
"They?" "As far as their brains are concerned, I'm afraid they can't think of or perceive anything." ”
"And why?"
"Didn't you hear what they were saying? Speaking of the eldest prince. ”
Awei recalled that there was indeed such a sentence, saying that the eldest prince was late to come and couldn't enter the house, but it was just that.
"The current situation is that the son-in-law has been left out in the cold, and the original dispute between the prince has been going on openly and secretly, and now the second prince has been grounded and blamed for it, even the father-in-law of the country has also been reprimanded, what a crisis for the queen. But some people are crises, and some people are opportunities. ”
Awei nodded, "Your Highness is talking about His Royal Highness the Great Prince?" ”
"It's not me who says it, it's everyone who thinks so. Everyone thinks that the prince should appear among the eldest prince and the second prince, and now that the second prince is like this, it seems that it should be the eldest prince. ”
"This is also true, among the adult princes of Your Majesty, only the eldest prince and the eldest prince perform well on weekdays, and they are also more loved by Your Majesty. Naturally, everyone thinks that only these two people have a little hope. ”
Although Awei is not very smart many times, she can still quickly understand Chi Chi's meaning, so Chi Chi continued, "They knew that the eldest brother came to see me, but I couldn't call him in, so they felt that I was the one who was valued by the eldest brother, plus during this time, even my father and the emperor were also good to me, and there were often things sent to Jinyang Palace, which everyone could see, so as long as they weren't so stupid, they naturally wouldn't want to stand on the opposite side of me." ”
Awei frowned, "But, they just believe that it must be the eldest prince?" What if it's the second prince? The second prince is the prince of the prince, even if His Majesty wants to punish him, he will definitely not punish it for too long, maybe it won't be long before he is released. ”
"So, that's what they stand for. Their mother must not deal with the queen, and naturally they don't want the second prince to be good. Although it is said that the eldest prince is also raised under the queen's knees, but in the end it is not the biological son of the real queen, although I don't know if they are clear about the estrangement between the eldest prince and the queen, but if they really don't deal with the queen, the eldest prince can always be so much better than the second prince. ”
Chi Chi knew very well in his heart that in this palace, who is not seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, today will be eager to flatter and cater because she feels that there is something between her and the eldest prince, and it is estimated that another day it will be because she is not related to these people in the center of power, and she will be stepped on the ground again.
Therefore, I will not be satisfied with all this in front of me, and I will not just take these many things to heart, and I will just feel that if you care, you will lose.
After standing outside for a while, I saw the queen's guard of honor coming from afar, and lowered her eyes slowly, "Let's go, let's go in." ”
Ah Wei nodded hurriedly, "Yes, the wind is strong outside, so be careful not to blow your Highness." ”
Chi Chi said, "The show is about to be staged, we can't just miss it." ”
The two turned around and went back to the table, after sitting down this time, the two princesses had already noticed Chi Chi Chi's discomfort just now, so they didn't say anything more, compared to the previous enthusiasm, now this kind of Chi Chi will feel more comfortable.
Sure enough, not long after Chi Chi sat down, the queen arrived, and everyone got up to salute the queen.
Today, the queen is wearing a palatial one, and she almost didn't write the words "I am noble" on her face.
After watching it for a while, I felt that I was afraid that the matter between the two princes and Jiahe really gave the queen too much blow.
will make the queen become so abnormal and a little unconfident.
You must know that the queen used to be very light on everything in the harem, and no one could really match her, otherwise she would not have been able to bring down Concubine Jing who was so favored at the beginning, and even after so many years, the emperor still gritted her teeth like this.
Chi Chi really doesn't know what happened back then, but she knows that no matter what happens, there must be the queen's credit.
So more than ten years have passed, and this queen who works so hard in the harem will regress? Chi Chi was also a little surprised.
Not to mention more, at least today's outfit, it will more or less make people feel a little too much, too hard.
She saw that she still felt the same way, so she didn't know how the emperor would react if the emperor saw it.
Yes, I was slow to believe that the emperor would come.
This is a mother's thousand autumns, not an ordinary feast.
If the emperor does not come at such a time, it is equivalent to telling the world that the relationship between the two is not harmonious, and the emperor may depose the queen.
And I believe that at least as far as the current emperor is concerned, he must not have thought of doing this, so the emperor will definitely give the queen this face, and he will definitely come today.
Even if you just pass by and come in and say a few words casually and leave, even if it is just a formality, this is the emperor's attitude.
But I just don't know if the emperor came over like this, for the queen, whether the good thing is bigger, or the bad thing is bigger.
The queen called, then sat down, smiling.
But somehow, when I looked at her for a long time, I just felt that her expression was tired and a bit far-fetched.
It seems that he doesn't want to laugh either, let alone come.
This kind of Qianqiu banquet is already considered top-notch, if the queen is not even satisfied with this, then I am afraid there is no other way, but the people who serve around her are naturally keen, and they can soon detect it, so they are even more cautious in doing things.
Chi lowered his head and took a sip of tea, anyway, this fire couldn't burn her anyway, as for what they wanted to behave in, whatever.
Just thinking about it, the two princesses next door had already stood up, "Let's go, let's go and celebrate the birthday of the queen mother." ”
I thought it was a little funny when I heard it for a long time, why did anyone rush to get the bullets?
