Volume 3 Through the Counterattack Chapter 5 New Year's Eve Feast

Before Li Ruoqing could come to a conclusion, Aunt Xia quietly looked at Li Ruoqing, and actually shed tears and said, "Madam is really the reincarnation of Miss Ling, right?" The prince can be regarded as having a ...... to rely on."

Seeing that Aunt Xia was crying, Li Ruoqing made a color, and Zijuan immediately comprehended and handed Aunt Xia a handkerchief. Zi Yan also moved the embroidery stool with a good eye and wanted to help her sit down.

Where did Aunt Xia dare to sit in front of the prince's concubine, and repeatedly pushed back.

Li Ruoqing: "Don't worry, aunt, please take a seat." I'm not from the Central Plains, and the rules don't make sense, so I'm happier when you sit down and talk. ”

Aunt Xia heard what the crown prince and concubine said, and hurriedly sat down after giving a salute.

He didn't forget to wipe his tears and said: "For some years, the palace people have whispered about the statue of Mrs. and Ling Girl, and the old slave has never seen the real amount up close. ”

Li Ruoqing thought to herself, no wonder Qi Rongruo fell in love with his mother, and the co-author is really like his mother!

Li Ruoqing: "My aunt is called a spirit girl, but she is familiar with her mother-in-law?" ”

Aunt Xia said with a little panic: "Where do you dare, where do you dare, Miss Ling is the lord of the county, where does the old slave dare to call each other familiar, but I have the honor to serve the girl for a while." ”

Aunt Xia had been keeping her head down, not daring to look directly at Li Ruoqing, but when it came to Ling'er, she unconsciously wanted to see Li Ruoqing.

Li Ruoqing: "Auntie, don't be afraid, let's talk casually." Recently, Childe ...... No...... Recently, the prince dreamed that he always called his mother, I don't know if it is in the second season of the year, the family is reunited, and the prince misses his parents. So I want to inquire about the prince's childhood, see if there is anything I can do for the prince, and talk about his longing for his family. ”

Li Ruoqing was talking nonsense, and apologized to Qi Rongruo in her heart: I'm sorry son, I'll use you as a talk to listen to gossip!

can't be counted as all gossip, after all, she just wants to find out the truth of the matter, so as to find a way to save the lives of the two.

Aunt Xia couldn't help but shed tears and said, "Yes, the prince is pitiful, and Miss Ling's time with him is too short." The old slave was originally an errand boy in the Queen Mother's Horse Mansion when the spirit girl was still the county lord, so he could follow and serve. Later, the girl married into General Lingxiao's mansion, and the old slave was assigned to the concubine. Miss Ling is really a very good person, very similar to Mrs. You, and she is also informal, but she is only a few years old when she arrives at the house, and she is very sensible. also let us subordinates don't have to call the county lord, just call her Ling'er. ”

Speaking of Ling'er, Aunt Xia actually smiled sweetly with tears in her eyes, as if she was reminiscing about a good time. At that time, the queen mother should still be the princess of the previous dynasty, her husband was a concubine, and her son was the king of the county.

Li Ruoqing worked hard not to mess up these relationships...... It's really embarrassing for her single-core head!

Li Ruoqing was fascinated by the story, and did not interrupt, Aunt Xia continued: "Miss Ling has followed her father on the border battlefield for several years, although she is immature, but that heroic spirit has always been there. As soon as she came to our house, her brothers and sisters all loved to coax her to play. Brother Heng...... Ah, no, no, no, it's the emperor, who was good to Miss Ling at that time, and often took her and Li Ge'er out to play. Oh, Li Ge'er is the name of the prince's father. ”

Aunt Xia seemed to be talking about her family affairs, and the wrinkles on her face seemed to be relaxed.

Seeing that Aunt Xia didn't mean to continue, Li Ruoqing asked, "What happened later?" Why did my mother-in-law marry the old prince? Isn't the old prince a concubine? ”

Aunt Xia: "Actually, the queen mother originally wanted Miss Ling to enter the palace as the princess of the county, after all, she was her niece, of course, it was right to marry her own son, so she was raised by Miss Ling from the border pass, and it was a pity to give it to the concubine." But at that time, Miss Ling was still young, and the Yan daughter had been in love with the emperor for a long time, and Queen Yan's family was huge. ”

Speaking of this, Aunt Xia looked at the open door behind her, and Zi Yan hurriedly stood outside the door and closed the door.

If you don't say that Li Ruoqing will believe her two big girls! Knowing that Li Ruoqing wanted to listen to gossip, Zi Yan not only closed the door, but also ran out to stand guard, obviously afraid that others would only say a few words.

Aunt Xia saw that the door was closed, and said in a low voice: "Our emperor can ascend the throne, and the Yan family is indispensable." ”

Li Ruoqing was confused, and asked dizzily: "Isn't it the throne protected by several brothers and nephews of the emperor?" ”

Aunt Xia continued to say in a very low volume: "Although several princes can help, they can be added together, that is, the strength of a family, at most it can be called brave, in terms of military power and the promotion of courtiers, the Yan family is the first to work." ”

Li Ruoqing understands a little, it seems that the emperor married Queen Yan in order to win the throne.

Li Ruoqing: "Then when did my mother-in-law marry the old prince?" ”

Aunt Xia: "The old slave can't remember it really, Miss Ling has been living in our house since she came back, and soon after the emperor and the queen got married, the old prince was also married." However, the old prince, like other princes, lived separately after getting married. Later, after many years, Miss Ling must be sixteen, right? The old prince gave birth to a wife and daughter and died in childbirth, but the queen mother gave him the spirit girl as a continuation. ”

Speaking of this, Aunt Xia was a little indignant, and sighed a little regretfully: "Alas, Miss Ling is a first-class honor among the royal family, and her temperament is also first-class. ”

Li Ruoqing: "That...... The prince ......"

Speaking of Qi Rongruo, Aunt Xia said with a smile: "Miss Ling married to General Ling Xiao's mansion, and the old slave didn't go with her, so didn't she go to the original lady...... Ah, no, there's the lady lady. I heard that after only two months of marriage, Miss Ling was happy, and when the prince landed, the old slaves were happy for Miss Ling. The old prince was also a general at that time, and with his military exploits, he had a concubine, and the other sons were all concubines, so our spirit girl gave birth to a concubine, although it was less noble than the emperor at that time, it was somewhat comforting. ”

Li Ruoqing: "Oh, you saw it when the prince was born?" ”

It sounds like Qi Rongruo is the child of the old prince, but Li Ruoqing is unrelenting in getting to the bottom of it.

Aunt Xia tried hard to recall, and said: "The old slave has not been to see it, where can I go out of the house casually, I only saw it at the prince's 100th birthday banquet later." Miss Ling took the prince to the house to accompany the queen mother for a few days, ouch, at that time, the prince was strong, smart, and the baby of a hundred days could sit and hold a pen, and the book for the emperor was a mess...... The emperor and the queen mother didn't say a word, and they also rewarded the prince with a chalcedony pen. ”

Aunt Xia was happy as she spoke, as if she was boasting that her children and grandchildren were little geniuses.

But when she heard these words in Li Ruoqing's ears, she broke out in a cold sweat.

How is it possible for a three-month-old child to sit up? Once she accompanied her cousin's children to take photos for 100 days, and the little niece was barely looking up on her stomach!

Take a few photos of you sitting, and you have to use a big bear to block the stylist's hand!

Sitting with a brush and drawing a book, it can't be a hundred-day-old baby!!

There's got to be a cat here!

If that Qi Rong is the child of Ling'er and Qi Tianheng, then such a strange grace now is indeed reasonable!

However, although the emperor was not the ninth and fifth at that time, three wives and four concubines were always common, right?

The continuation of the royal family, compared with the side lady of the county king, doesn't seem to be noble?

The more she thought about this, the more confused Li Ruoqing became!

This damn Zou Qiangguo gave her a script, and only gave her an outline, which made her the unknown truth in the clouds. It's really better to not know anything, so let it be......

Zijuan and Aunt Xia saw Li Ruoqing holding her forehead, and immediately became nervous.

Aunt Xia: "Madam, are you unwell?" It must have been the old slave nagging about these old things that disturbed the lady's rest. ”

Zijuan also said with a panicked face: "Auntie...... Madame, but you have another headache? If I didn't rest yesterday, I won't be very energetic today. Do you want to announce the imperial doctor to take a look? ”

Li Ruoqing hurriedly comforted: "Don't worry, don't worry, my aunt doesn't have much to worry about, I think it's because her body is not good, and she is a little unenergetic." ”

After speaking, Aunt Xia hurriedly saluted and retreated.

Everyone knows what this Royal Highness the Prince's baby Mrs. Li is like, she is really tired, she is not in good spirits, where is a little uncomfortable, then it is terrible to investigate!

Zijuan helped Li Ruoqing to lie down in the bedroom, and while making the bed, she said, "Girl, relax and sleep, and I will participate in the night banquet at night." The royal relatives are coming, you can't hide! ”

Li Ruoqing nodded, there was too much information in her head, as if she was a little too tired, so she gradually fell asleep......

【Flower Garden】

Today's New Year's Eve banquet was held in the Flower Cherishing Hall, which has the largest indoor stage.

It's the middle of winter, but the whole palace is very warm, and all kinds of flowers, green plants, melons and fruits are also dazzling.

When Li Ruoqing arrived, there were already a lot of people, and there was not much of a warm atmosphere, so she should have waited for the emperor to open the banquet.

Li Ruoqing sat silently next to Qi Rongruo, and sat on both sides with Kong Xueying.

In fact, she should sit behind the crown prince and the crown princess, but this prince spoils her, and there is a killer weapon in her stomach, no matter how polite it is, no one dares to squeak.

Fortunately, it is a royal banquet, so it does not need to be as rigorous as the court.

Li Ruoqing didn't like this occasion at all, dressed in a cumbersome and gorgeous dress, in her opinion, she looked like a colorful peacock. The clothes made her unhappy, and she didn't dare to eat openly, and she couldn't say more......

Alas, such a boring and boring New Year's banquet can't be dispersed when it's not a child, where is there a fun time to watch the Spring Festival Gala while making dumplings and playing poker?

That Qi Rongruo quietly turned sideways to Li Ruoqing and said, "What? Uncomfortable again? ”

Li Ruoqing used her big sleeves to cover her bright red lips that looked like she had just eaten someone, and said, "It's definitely not comfortable to sit in a proper manner!" ”

That Qi Rongruo smiled and said, "You! It seems that if you don't learn the rules, you won't be able to adapt to such an occasion. I've got to learn the rules when I go back......"

Li Ruoqing said in horror: "What? Let me learn the rules??? ”
