Chapter 422: Uninvited

Although Xia Qingtong is the wife of Ming Yue Ming Media. But without a formal canonization, she cannot be called the crown princess.

And with the canonization, she is the real one, the master of the East Palace.

Thank you and take the order. Xia Qingtong didn't really care about this canonization.

Emperor Qingren didn't give her the canonization, could Ming Yue still marry someone else as the crown princess?

However, with this canonization, Xia Qingtong is still very happy.

"Shouldn't we celebrate?"

Xia Qingtong never thought that in her life, there would be a day when she would be the crown princess?

Is this considered a promotion and salary increase?

"If you want to celebrate, you canβ€”"

Before Ming Yue finished speaking, an internal supervisor came over.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, Zhaoyi Niangniang sent someone over and said that you are invited to dinner. Congratulations to you. ”

Xia Qingtong and Ming Yue glanced at each other. Ming Yue should be the first to come down.

"Okay, you go back to the concubine and say we'll go over later."

"Yes."

"Today is our first day staying in the East Palace, and it is also appropriate to go to the concubine."

"Yes." Xia Qingtong is not so stingy: "It's the same if we celebrate together tomorrow." ”

"Yes."

In the evening, Xia Qingtong and Ming Yue went to Chu Zhaoyi's Jiuhua Palace. Not surprisingly, Akihiro is also there.

"Congratulations to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Ming Hong looked at Ming Yue and the others, and their eyes were full of joy: "I have seen His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

"You and my brother, why bother to see me like this, let's call me sixth brother."

"Etiquette should not be abolished." Ming Hong's face was full of youth, and he smiled very kindly.

"Ah Hong, if you are like this, are you forcing me not to come next time?"

"I didn't mean that." Ming Hong glanced at Chu Zhaoyi's direction: "It was the mother concubine who said it, she said that you are now the crown prince." This is no longer the case. Let me be mindful. Don't fall into the driver's seat. ”

"That's for the others, just the two of us, it really doesn't have to be."

"Then I won't be polite to the sixth brother."

Only then did Ming Hong change his words, and Chu Zhaoyi looked at the two of them from the side, his eyes full of smiles.

"This kid is neither big nor small, and the more tolerant he will be with you."

"Mother." Ming Yue looked at Chu Zhaoyi, he knew that he had ascended to the position of crown prince, and some things would definitely change. But no matter who changes, he hopes that the person who changes will not be Minghong.

"I am brothers with the ninth brother, and I should tolerate him. But he doesn't need to be too formal. The rules are for outsiders. ”

"Okay." Chu Zhaoyi was moved: "If your brothers can always have such a good relationship, I have nothing to worry about." ”

"Don't worry, Queen Mother." Ming Hong glanced at Ming Yue: "Sixth brother is the best, we will always be so good." ”

"Good, good." Chu Zhaoyi smiled: "Everyone is together, come and eat." ”

When he spoke, he looked at Xia Qingtong: "I don't know what your taste is, but I prepared some of the same." Most of them are prepared according to Yue'er's taste, if you have anything special to eat, tell me, I will let people prepare it. ”

"No need." Xia Qingtong hurriedly waved his hand: "The more Ming Yue likes to eat, I like to eat." ”

"Look at this little mouth, so talking." Chu Zhaoyi turned to look at Ming Yue: "Such a good daughter-in-law, you have to treat others well." ”

"Don't worry, the concubine, the son can save it."

The family happily entered the table, and unexpectedly, not long after they sat down, Emperor Qingren and Concubine Li also came.

"I heard that Concubine Ai celebrated the crown prince, and I and Concubine Li came uninvited, will you not welcome it?"

"How so?"

Chu Zhaoyi smiled and asked people to add food, and quickly gave up their positions, so that Emperor Qingren and Concubine Li sat on the upper seat.

"It is an honor for your majesty to come."

Chu Zhaoyi said this frankly, in fact, since Concubine Li returned to favor, Emperor Qingren didn't go to the harem much.

Now it is Concubine Li's exclusive favorite harem, and Emperor Qingren was not very concerned about women, and the number of times that these palace concubines can see Emperor Qingren is getting less and less.

"Yes." Emperor Qingren's tone was neither cold nor hot, but Concubine Li smiled at Mimi.

"Sister is polite, my sister hasn't been here this year. I heard that my sister's chef here is used to cooking some Jiangnan side dishes. My sister also knows that I am from Jiangnan, and I can't be hungry when I hear it. My sister is cheeky and begging His Majesty to bring me over to taste one or two, but my sister should not dislike it. ”

"My sister is polite." Chu Zhaoyi smiled brightly: "I have always wanted to invite my sister to sit in the palace, but my sister is busy with palace affairs, and I don't dare to disturb." This is a rare opportunity, I can't ask for it, how can I dislike it? ”

[These women in the harem are so terrible, they started to trick in just a few words. 】

[Please come out and explain, why didn't I see it?] 】

[Isn't it?] One said that he had never been there, implying that people were not favored, and the other saying that the other was busy, implying that the other party only knew how to compete for favor. 】

[After seeing too much, I found that the harem is really a terrible place.] 】

[Terrible plus one.] 】

[Anchor, you will let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince guard himself like a jade in the future. Don't provoke these messy women into the palace. 】

[That's right. Remember. 】

Xia Qingtong: ......

looked at Chu Zhaoyi and Concubine Li, who were smiling with smiles on their faces. Hehe. She didn't hear anything, it seems that netizens have made up too much brain.

With Emperor Qingren here and Concubine Li, this family banquet will naturally not be cold.

Chu Zhaoyi said a word to Concubine Li, and I said a word, which was very lively.

However, Emperor Qingren sat at the top and looked at Ming Yue and Xia Qingtong who were sitting at the bottom, and his eyes were a little embarrassed.

This is a way for two people to eat separately at one table. Why did he come here if he wanted to?

thought of the scene where I ate hot pot with Ming Yue and Xia Qingtong last time. Forget it, let's pick another time and eat with Ming Yue.

The meal was eaten in a slightly eerie situation. Xia Qingtong thought it was over, but he didn't expect Chu Zhaoyi to have arrangements.

"The weather is hot, and I have prepared some fruit here. It's all chilled. The most is to quench your thirst. And this year's lotus leaves are blooming well. I asked the palace maid to pick the dew on the lotus leaves in the morning, and the tea brewed had a lotus fragrance. Your Majesty admires your face, drink it and then leave. ”

Emperor Qingren glanced at Ming Yue and the others, who were sitting still, and responded in a low voice.

Concubine Li seemed to be very touched, and she smiled very happily on the side.

"In that case, I'm going to have to taste it."

Xia Qingtong looked at Concubine Li, and had to sigh in her heart, Gao Duan is really Gao Duan.

No wonder he can always be favored, so that Emperor Qingren will not enter the harem after having her.

The fruit after the meal is good, in this era, there are no pesticides, no hormones. The fruit has a sweet taste.

The tea is also good, I don't know how Chu Zhaoyi made it. It is indeed a fragrance of lotus flowers.

"It smells so good. Good tea. It's still my sister's ingenuity. I've never tasted such a good tea. ”

Concubine Li was the first to open her mouth to praise. Seriously, with Concubine Li's current status, it is impossible not to drink a better tea than this.

When she says this, she really is exquisite. It's just not sleek and annoying.

High. It's really high.

"Your Majesty, you said this tea is wonderful, right? It's really special when you smell this fragrance. ”

Emperor Qingren was noncommittal. As the lord of the world, what tea has he not drunk? But since Concubine Li opened her mouth, he always had to give her some face.

"It's really good."

Ming Yue has been silent, occasionally telling Ming Hong a few words about the yamen.

Now that he has been crowned the crown prince, it is impossible for him to return to the military department. But fortunately, Xu Ying is almost able to stand alone.

What's more, Xu Ying is already talented, and if she implements it according to the original Ming Yue's formula, there will be no big difference.

However, no matter how powerful Xu Ying is, her years are limited. Now at most, he is an alternate squire.

If you want to go further, one is to have achievements, and the other is to have qualifications.

I don't know what I talked about, but Minghong's voice suddenly increased by one degree.

"Sixth brother, you said it so well." Ming Hong listened to Ming Yue's words, and his eyes lit up: "Why didn't I think of it before?" ”

Xia Qingtong was being pulled by Concubine Li to ask questions, and when she heard the voice, she turned her head to look at the two brothers.

"What are Lao Jiu talking about?"

Emperor Qingren found out just now, the two brothers have been talking, the voice is not loud, he wants to listen to it, there are other people in the palace.

This will hear Minghong's reaction, and finally can't help it.

"Father Qi, I just told the sixth brother about a case I had in the Criminal Department, and I think the idea proposed by the sixth brother is very good."

Ming Hong entered the criminal department before, and when he first came, others didn't dare to take some big and important cases to investigate him.

But it's still okay to show him some information about old cases. In fact, the average newcomer enters the six departments, and they all start by reading the information.

Recently, Akihiro has started to handle some cases on his own.

But recently encountered a somewhat difficult case, and the ministry has different opinions on how to judge this case. So when we were chatting just now, I said a few words casually.

"What case? Let's hear it. Emperor Qingren seemed to be in the mood.

Xia Qingtong and Ming Yue glanced at each other, why did this emperor suddenly become interested in the trial?

"That's right. There is a family surnamed Zhang who gave birth to a son. Before the age of three, he was abducted. This kidnapper with this child was supposed to be sold to other provinces. Unexpectedly, the crutch met an official errand halfway, but the child was small, so he threw the child down and ran away. Later, the child was rescued by a family surnamed Li and adopted. Some time ago, the child had grown up, went to the capital to seek an errand, and by chance, lived in an inn opened by the family surnamed Zhang. let the Zhang family find out that he was their lost child. So he recognized the child. But the child had forgotten what happened when he was a child, and only recognized the Li family as his parents. The Zhang family was not convinced, so they sued the Li family. said that the Li family abducted people. But the Li family was able to come up with evidence, saying that they were kind enough to save people, and because the husband and wife could not have children, they adopted the child. Now the two families are in trouble. They all argue that they are relatives of this child. Won't let go. ”

Xia Qingtong was interested: "What about later?" What did that kid say? ”
