Chapter Eighty-Six: The Eve of the Night Feast
Tomorrow is the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, and the palace sent the princess's costume, which is more gorgeous and noble than the county lord's dress, still goose yellow, embroidered with marigolds representing the princess's identity, beautiful and incomprehensible.
Because Fei Jingyue's identity is different now, the palace specially sent two teaching grandmothers to teach the servants in the palace rules, after all, Fei Jingyue is already a royal person.
In Dashun Beijing, women all regard Fei Jingyue as the object of envy, and a woman from an official family can be a princess, although it is only a title, it is also a title that is not very rare.
But there are also many rumors that the reason why Fei Jingyue was given a title was because the royal family chose her as a candidate to go to Xichang Country and relatives, and many women scoffed, after all, who would want to stay away if they could stay in their hometown.
On this day, Liang Lingxue came to visit.
Fei Jingyue vomited blood, Liang Hexuan had already told her, she was very worried, because of Fei Jingqiao's relationship, she was very kind to Fei Jingyue, and she had long wanted to visit in person, but because of the years, it was easy to find an opportunity.
The two daughters were very affectionate when they met, and after talking for a while, Liang Lingxue stayed in Fei Mansion for lunch before returning home.
Fei Jingqiao has been strictly guarding the city defense because of the war in the south of the border, and he has not gone home for a while, Liang Lingxue left a letter to drag Fei Jingyue to hand it over, presumably it must be the earnest feelings of the children's family, Fei Jingyue smiled and agreed.
Hearing that Su Yingying was pregnant and was doing very well in the Tao family, Fei Jingyue was happy in her heart, Mrs. Tao was a person who valued love and righteousness, and she would definitely treat Yingying well, and she also counted a matter of concern.
Because she vomited blood some time ago, she didn't care about Fu Qingrou, but Qin'er sent a message to say that Aunt Qin's wife was very good, and she was also relieved.
Now that everyone she cares about has a stable future, even if she has something, she can rest assured.
Because she didn't know what the result would be if Qi Xiu left, if she won, then she would have nothing to say, if she lost, she would marry Xichangguo, and after completing her mission, she would follow him.
Chinese New Year's Eve is calm before the storm, so cherish it.
In the morning, Fei Jinghan ran over and brought a pot of Molan, saying that it was cultivated by Aunt Cui, and brought it over for Fei Jingyue to raise and play.
Molan has its own fragrance, which makes people feel comfortable and refreshing on a cold winter morning.
"Sister, I've never been to a night banquet in the palace, so I'm so worried." Fei Jinghan looked innocent.
In this Fei Mansion, I'm afraid only she is the cleanest and purest.
Fei Jingyue looked at her little sister, in fact, she was not short anymore, and she had less hair than herself, because Aunt Cui was tall, and Fei Jinghan grew taller than her peers at a young age. With fair skin, a ruddy little mouth, and two natural dimples when he smiles, he is a beautiful embryo.
Counting up, Fei Jingyue has traveled over for more than a year, Fei Jingyue is March birthday, and she will be fourteen at the beginning of the year, and Fei Jinghan is August birthday, and now she is twelve years old.
Women of this age are still ignorant in modern times, but many of them have already talked about family affairs in ancient times.
Fei Jingyue rubbed her hair lovingly and said, "Han'er just follow her aunt when the time comes, and my mother will also go, everyone is together, it's okay." ”
After playing for a while, the girl came over and urged her to go back to try on new clothes, and then reluctantly went back to the yard.
The Fei Mansion was calm, but there were turbulent waves in the palace.
"Mother, do you want to ask Gao Yang for the position of the crown prince's side concubine?" Chun Yi stared at her beautiful mother, but she was quite dissatisfied in her questioning.
"Is there any other choice for Gao Yang today?" Dongli Imperial Concubine looked at her daughter, this daughter inherited her beauty, although it can't be said that she is glamorous, but the melon seed face and cherry mouth are how many kings and grandsons have been fascinated.
"Since Gao Yang is useless, it's just a matter of giving her the crown prince and a side concubine, but why doesn't the mother concubine ask her father and the emperor to let me go and kiss?"
Although there are many women in Beijing who don't want to go to get married, it doesn't mean that being friendly is absolutely bad, it depends on the place.
If it is a barren place in the desert, it is a queen, and no one wants to go, but Xichang is different, although it is just a princess, but Xichang is rich, and it is close to Dashun, and I heard that these four princes have a noble status and have the right to inherit in the future, and he is also a handsome son.
The most important thing is that he, like the seven princes of Dashun, does not have a concubine, which is a good thing.
"Chunyi, do you think I didn't ask?" The Imperial Concubine of Dongli was a little annoyed, why can't her daughter be sensible, doesn't she understand such a good thing? It's just that Emperor Chengshun didn't allow it.
"Father actually wants to give such a good thing to the Fei family's wild seed." Chun Yi complained.
"You must not say that again." The Imperial Concubine of Dongli is clear and important, which naturally stops her daughter's frivolity.
"Your father said you weren't suitable." This is Emperor Chengshun's answer.
But no matter how coquettish the concubine of the Dongli Emperor was, Emperor Chengshun was unmoved.
"Has the Seventh Emperor Brother asked for war, have you heard of the concubine?" Chun Yi suddenly smiled a little meaningful.
The Imperial Concubine of Dongli naturally knew that there was an impermeable wall in this world, but Emperor Chengshun still refused to be honest and pro-Chun, which made her a little annoyed, but it was useless, and Emperor Chengshun sent her away with only one inappropriate sentence.
"Okay, Chunyi, you are only fifteen years old, your father will point you a good family affair, then Xichang Kingdom is not a good place to get along, maybe the seventh prince wins, when the time comes, I will go to your father again, and your father will refuse." The imperial concubine of Dongli comforted her daughter, and it was not that things were not unturned, but Chun Yan was too hasty.
Chun Yi was helpless, so he had to give up, he hated Fei Jingyue a little in his heart, he obviously didn't want to go, and he still wanted to take advantage of such a good thing, his father was really confused, he couldn't think of his daughter for such a good thing, but it was cheaper for an outsider.
She sneered at Meng Gaoyang in her heart, and was rectified by this Fei Jingyue again and again, and now she is so frightened that she can only retreat to the second, being a prince and concubine, it is really useless, and the lord of Hanwei who killed this half of the way really has the means, making these two people embarrassed, and the Seventh Emperor Brother even has to go out to seek leeway, but if the Seventh Prince marries her, he will not be able to go to the next place, so he will help Fei Jingyue at the right time, also for himself.
The Chinese New Year's Eve banquet is held every year in the palace, and it has become a rule, and the palace has long been lit up with lights and magnificent decorations.
Although there is a war in the south of the border this year, according to the Queen Mother's wishes, the expenses for this Chinese New Year's Eve banquet cannot be saved, and the year's unhappiness will be washed away in the excitement and joy of the people.
The queen is naturally hands-on, running everywhere, the palace has been well organized, Emperor Chengshun has always taken a fancy to Queen Xia Lian, and even the queen mother is full of praise for her.
Because of the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, the palace swept away the haze caused by the previous border war, and there was laughter everywhere.
Luo Changqing of Xichang Kingdom has brought the four princes and others who are about to marry to Dashun, it is said that there are many people from Xichang Kingdom here, in addition to the four princes and the only princess and others, it seems that they attach great importance to the marriage between Dashun and Xichang Kingdom.
The group was arranged in the Golden Terrace, which is a post house for Dashun to receive VIPs, but not everyone can afford to live, and they must be the monarch or the person above the monarch to live, let alone those ordinary small countries.
Because it was the monarch's meeting, Dashun naturally wanted to arrange a person of noble status to receive him, and it was only a few candidates, but the prince couldn't get out of something to do, the five princes accompanied the queen to arrange the night banquet, and the seven princes went on the expedition again, and the only thing left was the unruly Nine Emperors.
Speaking of the Nine Emperors, he can be regarded as one of the favored princes of the royal family.
The birth mother of the Nine Emperor Sons has a noble identity, as soon as she enters the palace, she is a concubine, when Emperor Chengshun was still the prince, she has been by her side, and her status is second only to Princess Qixue, because her biological mother was born noble, the Nine Emperor Sons have always been unruly and unruly.
The day before the Chinese New Year's Eve feast, Emperor Chengshun sent him to be the reception envoy.
The Nine Emperors have a peach blossom face, and they are also sophisticated, so they naturally know the reception in their hearts, and happily took the errand and went.
When I arrived at the post house, I saw the monarch of Xichang and his party, and after some diplomatic rhetoric, he actually made the suspicious and stubborn Luo Changqing like it very much, and he sent him out after greeting him.
In fact, the Nine Emperor Princes only came to send invitations today, and they will also be invited to the banquet tomorrow night.
In fact, he and Qi Xiu are very good, because the two are the same age, and they are not people who are subject to the rules, so they naturally get closer, and he also knows about Qi Xiu's departure, just now he paid careful attention to that Luo Wenning, and it is really the dragon among the people, compared to Qi Xiu, if the Seven Emperor Brothers can't return victoriously this time, then the wise and gorgeous Princess Xiaoning will marry him, and there will be more hostility at a glance.
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw that his horse was about to crash into a light and beautiful girl.
"Phew." He hurriedly stopped his horse, jumped off the horse, and twisted the girl into his hand.
"How did you ride a horse, you almost hit me." The woman's mouth began to cry out before her feet touched the ground.
He caught a glimpse of this woman, refreshing and delicate, other women were too frightened to speak, but she looked smiling, even if she was angry, she was good-looking.
The dimples on this woman's face were so beautiful that they were more beautiful than any woman around him, and they made him involuntarily fall in love.
"Hurry up and let me down." The woman was not short, but she was much smaller than him, and he hurriedly put the woman on the ground.
"Which girl are you?" He asked.
"I'm Fei Jinghan from Fei Mansion." The girl replied with a smile.
"Is that her? Princess Xiaoning's family. ”
"Who are you?" Without waiting for him to ask any more questions, the girl asked.
"I'm the son of the Qi family in Dongcheng." He didn't know why, he told a lie.
The woman picked up the bell on the ground that had been trampled by the horse, and said sadly, "How is this good?" The bell my sister gave me was broken by a horse. ”
Qi Xiutong was a little sorry, took the silver bell in her hand, and said, "Don't worry, I have a way." ”
