The eldest prince picked up the teacup to cover up, and when he saw the concubines toasting each other, he raised his glass and touched the cup of the third prince.

"Have you ever drunk?"

The third prince was stunned for a moment, "I haven't drunk it." ”

The eldest prince said: "It's okay, I haven't drunk it either, let's replace the bar with tea!" ”

The four words of tea instead of wine are still what he read from a book a few days ago, literati love to drink, and use wine to express their feelings, if they encounter inconvenience, they can only use tea instead of wine to chat and express their hearts.

The eldest prince is very longing, so he took the opportunity to try it today.

The third prince's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly picked up the teacup, "Okay!" ”

The two children touched the teacup and laughed, and the second prince watched silently.

He turned his gaze and suddenly found that Concubine Xian was looking at him, and he couldn't help pursing his lips and lowering his head, lest Concubine Xian accuse him with a stern gaze.

He didn't know why the eldest prince didn't like to be with him anymore, but the third prince was always sticking to the eldest prince, and the relationship between the two of them was getting better and better.

Is it because Su Youyi and the queen are close?

Su Youyi couldn't help laughing when she looked at the eldest prince, and when she saw the strange appearance of the second prince, she looked at Concubine Xian again, and then she found that Concubine Xian was staring at the second prince seriously-

It's like he's made something big.

The second prince did make a mistake, pretending to be good friends with the eldest prince while secretly framing the eldest prince.

But this mistake is the fault of Concubine Xian's poor upbringing, not the innate fault of a child, if she wants to blame, it is better to blame herself.

Su Youyi couldn't help but sigh, feeling that the second prince was also quite pitiful.

"Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, so there is no need to be restrained at the family banquet. Yun Xiang, Yun Qi, come, I will give you a drink. ”

The emperor raised his glass to the princes and county kings, and everyone hurriedly got up and raised their glasses accordingly, "You should wait for the emperor to have a glass." ”

The emperor said: "You are all princes who have received real things in the court, and you have worked hard for the country all year round, and I should respect you with a cup." ”

In addition to Prince Yong calmly looking back at the emperor, Su Youyi noticed that the faces of the other two county kings were not quite right.

Looking at the emperor's face, it doesn't seem like he really respects them, it seems that this is indispensable to involve the affairs of the court, Su Youyi made up a lot of plots in her heart, and sat back and watched the excitement.

To her disappointment, the two county kings had not yet spoken, and the emperor had already drunk all his wine, and waved his hand to signal them to sit down.

The eldest prince got up and said, "Father, can my brothers and I drink today?" ”

The emperor said: "You are only nine years old after the New Year, and the two of them are even younger, so they can't drink." ”

The eldest prince did not show the disappointed face that everyone imagined, but said with a smile: "Erchen knew that his father was not allowed to drink, so he deliberately poured a full cup of tea and used tea instead of wine to honor his father." ”

Sure enough, he took a cup of tea from the table, and the second prince was about to follow him, when he suddenly saw that the third prince had already stood up and held a cup of tea in his hand.

"The sons and daughters also respect their fathers and the emperor, and replace wine with tea."

Obviously, the two of them had agreed in advance.

The second prince hurriedly picked up the teacup and got up, only to hear the eldest prince say: "The sons and daughters have paid New Year's greetings to their fathers and mothers, as well as to the mothers and concubines of the harem, and to the emperor's uncles." ”

Hearing this, everyone hurriedly picked up their wine glasses, and Concubine Xian glanced at the second prince and complained that he gave the eldest prince the opportunity to show his face.

The emperor raised his wine glass and said, "Who taught you to replace wine with tea?" ”

always felt that this kind of thing belonging to the literati must have been taught by Su Youyi, but when he looked at Su Youyi, the latter replied to him with an innocent expression.

The conscience of heaven and earth, this time it is really not her to teach the prince.

Singing and dancing, guests and hosts are happy.

When the banquet was about to end, the emperor suddenly said: "I have two arrangements after the New Year, and I will simply say that today's family banquet." One is from the harem, Concubine Li made a mistake and was demoted by me, I saw that she had now thought about it thoroughly, and decided to restore her title and position. ”

In the harem, everyone's faces changed, and even the queen could barely hold back her smile.

She was proud for two days, and the emperor restored Concubine Xian again, which means that everything will return to its original state.

Everyone in the harem didn't expect it, recalling the appearance of Concubine Xian's high power in the past, they couldn't help but be afraid. Su promised to look at Su Youyi, and seeing that there was no fluctuation on her face, she was inevitably curious.

"Isn't my sister afraid? Concubine Xian was reset, and her sister bore the brunt. ”

"Is there a difference between being the first and not being the first to bear the brunt?"

Su Youyi played with the wine glass, "It was because I and Concubine Xian had torn their faces that she didn't want to attack me for a while." On the contrary, Fu Chang has not yet found out about that incident, don't you think that hidden arrows hurt people more terrifyingly than real knives and real guns? ”

Fuchang was grounded at the time of that incident, and it couldn't be her.

Su promised to think about it and was relieved, "Sister is right, with my sister's intelligence and grace, I may not be able to defeat Concubine Xian." ”

Su Youyi winked at her, "And you and Sima promised to write and fight, one can save my life, and the other can help me analyze the situation, what else do I have to be afraid of?" ”

Su promised a warm heart, looked at her and nodded vigorously.

"Concubine Xie Emperor Longen."

Concubine Xian got up from her seat and bowed to the emperor.

The emperor hummed lightly, but the queen opened her mouth, "Congratulations to Concubine Xian's sister for her reinstatement, I hope my sister will repent completely and don't do anything to hurt the sisters of the first palace in the future." Cultivating virtue and self-reliance, he will be blessed in the future. ”

Concubine Xian's face froze, and she soon smiled slightly, "Concubine, thank you for the queen's teaching." The queen mother has been getting close to the nobles recently, and it seems that she has learned some of the words of the nobles, and she is becoming more and more able to teach people. ”

Cultivating virtue and self-sufficiency.

Saying this in front of the concubines and concubines of the palace, as well as the princes and princes, isn't it just saying that she was not virtuous in the past?

Su Youyi pretended not to hear it and didn't want to come out of this.

The queen was helpless, so she had to smile, "As the queen, this palace should naturally teach the concubines." It seems that the palace was not good enough in the past, and Concubine Xian didn't listen well in the past. In the future, this palace will definitely tell you slowly, make it clearer, so that nothing will happen again. ”

Concubine Xian didn't smile and sat down.

Prince Yong said: "Your Majesty, what is one more thing?" ”

Everyone's eyes fell on the emperor, one thing is to restore the position of the virtuous concubine, so the other thing will be to seal other concubines?

The concubines were difficult to press in their hearts, the emperor glanced at everyone, and his eyes fell behind Prince Yong, "There is a lot of snow this winter, and I heard that there is loosening on the side of the imperial tomb." I decided to send two county kings to guard the imperial tomb for the first emperor, what do you think? ”

It turned out that it wasn't a harem business.

The concubines instantly lost their curiosity, but Su Youyi continued to listen curiously with her eyes lit up.

Guarding the imperial mausoleum is by no means a beauty difference for the respect of the county king, the imperial mausoleum is in the mountains and forests are deserted and uninhabited, and there is no singing and dancing in the capital and the glory of wealth and glory.

But it's not a chore.

This errand has nothing to do, as long as there are no accidents, it is a good job, and maybe it will get a commendation.
