Chapter 394: Astrolabe Fortune Counting

The queen raised her eyes, and hurriedly asked the Qin Tian Eunuch in front of her to excuse herself, and then asked the people below to bring him a chair.

"Master Li, a few days ago, the palace asked you to divinate the lives of the three princesses Zhao, what did you divination?"

Qin Tianjian Li took out an astrolabe, and there were irregularly distributed cracks on the astrolabe.

The queen could not read the tortoiseshell, but she knew the principle of the astrolabe, and she stared at the purple halo refracted in the cracks.

"Qin Tianjian, on this astrolabe, do you want to inform the palace to guard against the three princesses Zhao?"

"Judging from the astrolabe, the divisions are uneven, the gap is too large, and the minister guesses that this Zhao family is afraid that it will create some chaos at the royal palace banquet in a few days, and it will inevitably cause a riot at the palace banquet at that time."

When the queen heard this, her heart shook a little.

"Have you confirmed this hexagram again and again? If something goes wrong, this palace will punish you. ”

"The minister didn't dare to be careless, and after confirming it again and again, he came to report to the queen!" Li said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

The queen changed inexplicably, knowing this, and said with her jaw: "Okay! In this case, this palace knows about it. ”

After all, Li is a foreign man, and if he stays in the harem for a long time, he is prone to problems. Seeing that the queen didn't seem to have anything else to do, she stood up directly and saluted: "If the queen doesn't have any other instructions, Weichen will retire first." ”

"Hmmm! Good! ”

"Mama Li, you go and send off Master Li." The queen instructed.

But this palace banquet, the emperor said before that all the people in the royal family should participate, and it is indispensable, so Zhao Yuning must also participate. But since the results of Qin Tian's monitoring were like this, it was impossible for the queen to turn a blind eye and ignore them. It can only be prevented, and it would be good if Zhao Yuning was interested.

In short, Zhao Yuning must not be allowed to make something at the banquet. If the emperor blames him at that time, won't her son still be implicated? How can this be!

Although there is no impermeable wall in the harem, the previous incident was concealed by the queen mother, and all the maids in the queen palace were also told to keep their mouths shut, and they almost forgot about the incident that happened that day, and did not say a word about the three princes' mansion.

They know that the queen mother has her own plans, and if this matter reaches the ears of the emperor, how can it be said that the emperor is also the person who gave this marriage, if such a thing happens, then the emperor's dragon face will inevitably be greatly damaged, and the national face will be even more shameful.

They can be the queen's eunuchs and palace maids, and they must have something unusual with the eunuchs and palace maids of other palaces, that is, they will say what they should say, and they must not say what they should not say.

In this way, in the inexplicable reaction of many people, the royal palace banquet was held as scheduled.

The queen was really tired from the hard work of several days. She rubbed her tired eyebrows, but she happened to see Zhao Yuning coming alone, and she was stunned for a moment. At this moment, even Tang Yining and Xie Tianrui had already walked in front of her to salute without noticing.

"Niangniang, Xie Tianrui, the prince of Prince Gong's mansion, and his princess Tang Yining see the queen's mother."

It wasn't until the maid next to her softly reminded her that she reacted. The queen looked at the emperor who didn't seem to notice on the side, and hurriedly raised her hand: "Give a seat to the little county king and the county princess." ”

And the emperor was just surprised, he didn't seem to have seen his queen so ghostly as he was now, didn't he encounter something difficult? Or has there been a bottleneck in taking care of the harem?

Seeing this, the emperor waited until Xie Tianrui and Tang Yining left and walked a little farther, then he looked up at the queen and asked, "Why is the queen so unenergetic, can it be because she is unwell?" Have you eaten all the black gold and silver phoenix pills that I gave you before? ”

The queen was a little overwhelmed by the emperor's sudden concern, and hurriedly replied: "Thank you for the emperor's care, the concubine is no longer in the way, your concubine has already eaten a lot, and the concubine is still thinking of asking you for some in a few days." ”

The emperor smiled: "I'm ready, tomorrow I will send someone to send you a few boxes." ”

"Then the concubine will thank the emperor first." The queen slightly hooked her petal lips, and the corners of her mouth showed laugh lines.

It's nightfall.

The banquet seems to be peaceful, but in fact there is an undercurrent.

Xie Zhengyu quietly observed everything at the banquet, and the harem concubines in his memory were all fighting openly and secretly, and they would do whatever it took to compete for favor, but today they were able to play and play like real sisters in the people. It's really like the carefree time he had with his brothers when he was the prince, but it's a pity, but it's just an illusion.

And the queen's eyes have been tightly on Zhao Yuning's body, until the emperor proposed to go outside with her to enjoy the flowers and the moon, she hurriedly looked at the maid next to her, and the maid immediately understood, and observed Zhao Yuning instead of the queen.

Zhao Yuning didn't seem to notice this, and ate a few bunches of grapes in front of her.

This grape is a tribute from the Western Regions, the taste is sweet and soft, and while eating, I secretly looked at Xie Tianrui in front of me.

However, Xie Tianrui just glanced at her lightly, and then turned his head and gave Tang Yining a chopstick dish.

Zhao Yuning was stunned for a moment, but she immediately reacted, this is not when they are alone, this is in the public, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, it is naturally reasonable for him to avoid suspicion.

"Yining, this dish is delicious, you eat more, it's too thin."

Tang Yining said angrily: "I have already eaten several pieces just now, and now I want to eat something else, can you peel a few grapes for me?" ”

Saying that, Tang Yining unceremoniously sent a few bunches of grapes to Xie Tianrui's hands, she likes to eat grapes, but she doesn't like to peel the skin, every time she peels her nails, it will turn purple, which is very difficult to wash. Xie Tianrui didn't say much, and began to peel the skin without complaint.

"I didn't see you like to eat grapes so much before, if you do, next time I'll let the house always prepare some." He nodded her nose as he spoke.

"Prepare some more, grapes rot so easily, if I accidentally prepare too much, I haven't eaten it yet, it's all rotten, what a pity! Also, although I like to eat grapes, it is so troublesome to eat grapes, and I have to peel them. ”

Tang Yining still remembers that his favorite food in his previous life was grapes, and every time he passed by a fruit stall before, he would buy several catties, and every time he felt that it was troublesome to peel the skin, he always wasted it before he finished eating.

After that, she would make wine from the remaining grapes, but in ancient times, when the technology was not developed and there were no tools, plus the grapes generally came from the Western Regions, under such conditions, it was simply done

No wine out.

Actually, it's not that it can't be done, but it may not work very well. However, you can try. It's just that this grape is a bit rare here, and there may not be any extra fruit for her to try.

"In that case, it's simple. I will plant a vine for you in the pavilion, and every autumn when it bears fruit, I will personally pick the grapes for you to eat, and then feed them to your mouth. ”

Tang Yining originally opened his mouth, wanting to say that the climate here can't grow delicious grapes. But after thinking about it, Xie Tianrui also has a heart, whether it is delicious or not, let's talk about it when the time comes. If it doesn't taste good, make it into wine.

"Oh? Doesn't that sound like that, right? ”

"What's wrong, I remember that there is a record in the wild history, there was an emperor Tang Xuanzong who laughed for Yang Guifei to ride the red dust concubine, no one knew that it was lychee, and I used this reason to please you."

Tang Yining blushed after hearing this, she said that when she once learned about this allusion, she had seen such a scene in a ridiculous dream, but she didn't expect it to come out of Xie Tianrui's mouth today.

This Xie Tianrui is really getting more and more open-mouthed, and he doesn't know that this is a royal palace banquet, and he dares to say so in front of the public.

"Okay, don't look at where this is, I actually said it like this, don't be ashamed!" At this time, Tang Yining had already pulled Zhao Yuning in the corner, and he didn't think about it at all.

"What's there to be ashamed of, we're husband and wife!" Xie Tianrui didn't care.

Both of them forgot about Zhao Yuning, but they didn't know that Zhao Yuning was not like this, you know, she has been paying attention to the two of them.

Xie Tianrui's every move was taken into Zhao Yuning's eyes.

She looked at Tang Yining and Xie Tianrui talking about love like no one else, and her heart was not happy. In her mind, she remembered the things that Xie Tianrui had done to him before, and those sweet words were still in her ears, but the person who was with him now was no longer her.

Tang Yining is a person, and the city government and scheming are unpredictable.

Zhao Yuning's heart was unhappy, Xie Tianrui seemed to have snubbed Tang Yining a few days ago, but today it was as if nothing had happened, and he was still as affectionate as before

Could it be that because she didn't show up for a few days, everything changed?

Cannot!

Don't let that happen!

It's just that when she looked at them quietly for a long time, Xie Tianrui suddenly sent the peeled grapes to Tang Yining's lips one by one, Tang Yining looked at him with a sweet smile, and then when she bit it, the handkerchief in Zhao Yuning's hand was almost crushed by herself.

"Is it delicious?"

Tang Yining nodded and responded to Xie Tianrui's words: "It's delicious, sweet and sour, especially the skin you peeled, I like it very much." ”

"Then I will feed you like this in the future, and I don't know if the grapes I grow are good or not, and what if they are not delicious." Xie Tianrui muttered.

Listening to Xie Tianrui's muttering, Tang Yining only felt a little funny, the little prince of Prince Gong's mansion planted grapes himself? A generation of well-known little county kings in the capital also personally planted grapes for the princess of the county, if this word spreads, Xie Tianrui will not let the whole capital laugh.
