266 Meaning
This year's Mid-Autumn Festival Palace Banquet is also the same as in previous years, if there is really any difference, it is that the number of marriage decrees that have been talked about since last year have finally come to this year's Mid-Autumn Festival Palace Banquet.
Princess Changle married the British government and married Yuan Ke as his wife.
King Ning married the seven girls of the Chengguo family, who held the power of the naval army.
King Mu married five girls from the Taishi Mansion.
One relied on an old man with military power, and the other found a Yue family who was the head of the Wenchen Qingliu, although it seems to be noble and has no real power, but the literati are like that, with such a benchmark, they will see you close to a lot.
Your Majesty's move is more and more incomprehensible, at least now it seems that King Rong, King Ning and King Mu are on equal footing, and I really can't see His Majesty's thoughts.
However, this is probably the so-called unfathomable Sacred Heart, right?
Putting away the nonsense in his heart, Pei Jinzhen turned his head to follow Xu Zhenzhen, showed a happy smile, and said to Xiao Lingxi and Lu Yueling, "Congratulations." ”
After the Mid-Autumn Festival palace banquet, two days later, someone came to the palace, but it was Aunt Suying in front of Queen Zheng.
"The queen's appetite is not very good these days, but she remembers the pastries that the girl told her before, but the people in the palace don't know, so she can only bother the girl to enter the palace."
No matter what Pei Jinzhen thought in his heart, he had to respond happily on his face, hurriedly freshened up, and brought the frost into the palace.
I don't know if it's because it's past the Mid-Autumn Festival, it seems that the entire palace has withered in an instant.
Even the Fengzao Palace is much more deserted than when it came before.
After entering Fengzao Palace, Pei Jinzhen asked Sushuang to follow the palace maid called by Su Ying to prepare pastries, and she followed Su Ying into the palace.
Empress Zheng was not in the main hall, so Su Ying took her and went to the side hall.
Today, Empress Zheng is not pruning flowers and branches in a leisurely manner as she was last time.
Empress Zheng is dressed as before, elegant and noble, and does not fall into the identity of the mother of a country, at this moment, she is sitting on the Arhat bed under the window, as if she is looking at something outside the window, looking very attentive. It's just that it's late autumn now, the scenery is withering, and I don't know what to see.
Pei Jinzhen thought so in his heart, but there was no difference on his face, and he stepped forward and squatted down to salute, "The courtiers meet the queen." ”
This sound finally brought Queen Zheng's mind back, she turned her head, the smile on her face was as usual, kind and tolerant, but Pei Jinzhen was still keenly aware that Queen Zheng's face was indeed not good.
At least compared to the Mid-Autumn Festival Palace banquet, it seems to be much worse.
That kind of haggardness, even fat powder can't hide it.
"Hurry up. You see, this palace is also eventful, but the season is not right, and some of the food is not delicious, so you made a special trip. Empress Zheng smiled gently.
"What did the mother say? Niangniang is the mother of the six houses, and your health is not a trivial matter. Pei Jinzhen naturally picked up nice words and said that although she and Empress Zheng knew very well, these were just excuses on the surface.
"Niangniang doesn't know, Miss Pei San also specially brought in the girl who can make pastries around her today, and asked her to teach our girl to make pastries. Su Ying said on the side.
"I have a heart." Empress Zheng beckoned Pei Jinzhen to sit down beside her, took Pei Jinzhen's hand, and gently patted the back of her hand. "Su Ying, didn't the second daughter-in-law send some osmanthus dew a few days ago? That thing raises people, you go and make a cup and give it to Jinzhen to taste. ”
"Yes." Su Ying replied and retreated.
In the side hall, in the blink of an eye, only Empress Zheng and Pei Jinzhen were left.
Pei Jinzhen didn't think it was strange, presumably, Empress Zheng was about to get to the point.
It's just that Queen Zheng is in a high position, even if she wants to cut into the topic, she won't say it very clearly.
Sure enough, when Su Ying left, Empress Zheng said, "Seeing that the wedding date between you and Xu Shi is just around the corner, this palace asked people to pack some things out that day, which is counted as adding makeup to you." ”
"Thank you, mother." Pei Jinzhen didn't refuse, because she knew that if it weren't for Yan Chong, these things would never be given to her. And she had probed Yan Chong's tone before, so she was able to accept it with peace of mind.
Empress Zheng smiled and asked again, "It's been a few days since you left Beijing, right?" Have I written to you? ”
Pei Jinzhen shook his head.
"Now that August is over, your wedding date is getting closer, you have to ask him when he will come back, right? Don't miss the wedding date, what do you say? ”
Pei Jinzhen could say anything besides nodding.
Empress Zheng seemed to really ask her to enter the palace, just for pastries.
After saying a few words, the pastries were ready, and after a few more gossips, Pei Jinzhen left the palace with the frost.
After leaving the palace, Pei Jinzhen called Ding Yang to come, and let Ding Yang pass on the words that the queen asked her to ask to Yan Chong.
What does Empress Zheng mean, she doesn't know, but Yan Chong must know.
It's just that as soon as the news got out, it was a stone in the sea.
This time, Yan Chong really disappeared completely, and there was no news.
Seeing that it was October, he hadn't returned to Beijing yet, and even Xiao Yuan's family was in a hurry. On this day, he couldn't help but say to Pei Shiqin.
"Where did Yan Shizi go? Why is there no news at all, if it goes on like this, can you come back in time to get married? ”
Pei Shiqin was also anxious in his heart, but he ......, "Yan Shizi must be leading some kind of imperial mission!" It is naturally a good thing that a man's family can serve the country, and these days, the DPRK and China are peaceful, and there must be nothing to do. It shouldn't be too late to get married, otherwise, there should be news from the Jing'an Hou Mansion or the Ministry of Rites. ”
What Pei Shiqin said, Xiao Yuan didn't understand, but in the end, he was in a state of panic.
Pei Jinzhen didn't seem to be affected at all, and was still calm as usual.
See, October, has also come to the bottom.
At the beginning of next month, it is an auspicious day.
This night, when Pei Jinzhen heard the light knock on the window, he frowned, but finally got up, pulled the window, and really saw someone's smiling face poking out the window.
Pei Jinzhen just didn't think about it, so he closed the window.
"Huh! Wanwan! Yan Chong shouted, stretched out his hand to block it, and suddenly, he heard a cry of pain.
Pei Jinzhen obviously knew that he was mostly acting, but he gritted his teeth, but he still opened the window, raised his eyes, and glared at him fiercely.
Sure enough, outside the window, it was his smiling face, flattering, cautious, "Still angry?" ”
It's amazing! He knew she was angry.
"Where have you been in the past few months, and what have you been doing?" Pei Jinzhen finally asked.
"Your Majesty let me go to Jiangnan." When he raised his eyes, he saw that Pei Jinzhen was still staring at him, not for a moment.
