Chapter 814: Middle Palace (2)
According to the practice in the palace, on the day of the canonization of the middle palace, a palace banquet should be set up in the Jiaofang Palace. A group of noblewomen and concubines and concubines in the palace all attended.
It's just that the situation in the harem of Daqi is quite delicate now.
It is the Empress Dowager Yu who lives in the Jiaofang Palace, and the one who is in charge of the phoenix seal is also the Empress Dowager Yu.
Xie Mingxi, the queen of the Middle Palace, lives in Fulin Palace. There is also an embarrassing Empress Xiao, who still lives in the East Palace.
The ladies couldn't help but secretly speculate in their hearts that today's palace banquet would not know how to "waves and swords"! Unexpectedly, the palace banquet turned out to be unexpectedly harmonious and lively.
Empress Dowager Yu had a kind face and was full of praise for Empress Xie.
Empress Xie was very respectful to Empress Dowager Yu and quite affectionate to Empress Xiao.
Queen Xiao, who presided over the palace banquet, was even more gentle and humble, and made people three points everywhere.
Seeing that everyone was dizzy, they kept muttering in their hearts. Why don't you tear it open? Where are the good things they have been looking forward to for many days?
Fortunately, everyone did not wait in vain, and soon, the real show came.
……
Empress Dowager Yu suddenly opened her mouth and said: "The mourning family has lived in the Jiaofang Palace for decades, and there are many memories in this palace, like the flesh and blood of the mourning family. The mourning family is really inseparable. ”
"Some time ago, the Xie family once said to the mourning family that this palace will always belong to the mourning family. I don't know these words, but they still count today? ”
All the noble ladies were in high spirits, and their eyes swept towards Queen Xie.
Xie Mingxi, who was sitting under the head of the Empress Dowager Yu, was in full view of everyone, without the slightest shame and anger of "forcing the palace", and smiled slowly: "What the daughter-in-law said, it naturally counts." ”
When these words were said that day, only Xiao Yuhan and the vassal kings were present.
Today, all the noblewomen in the capital are here.
As soon as Xie Mingxi's words came out, it was like a bowl of water falling into a boiling oil pot, and everyone couldn't come back to their senses.
Others can still hold back and watch the play silently, but Xu can't bear it. She stood up and shouted in a hearty voice, "Wait a minute! ”
Everyone's eyes looked at Xu again.
Xu: "......"
The Xu family, who came forward bravely, was shocked to realize what an occasion this was!
The one sitting on the top is the Queen Mother! Sitting on both sides of the table are all noble ladies of the third rank or above. The most noble women of Daqi are here.
She is a rural mother-in-law, and she relied on her good luck to marry Mrs. Xie to fill the house, which is why she has today's good situation. Where did she get the confidence to support Xie Mingxi on such occasions?
But......
Empress Dowager Yu is also too deceitful!
How can there be such a reason to bully his daughter-in-law in front of everyone!
Is there really no one in the Xie family?!
Xu didn't know where he got the courage, straightened his waist, and said loudly: "Queen Mother, I was born in the countryside, and I can't talk around the corner." Speaking recklessly today, please also ask the Queen Mother to have a lot, don't worry about me. ”
"I don't know the rules of the palace, I only know that as the queen of the middle palace, she should live in the Jiaofang Palace and be in charge of the phoenix seal. But today, I went into the palace to watch the ceremony, and I didn't see the queen receiving the phoenix seal! ”
"Also, what did the Queen Mother mean by what she said just now! Do you want to live here forever? So what will the queen mother do in the future? ”
"I didn't live in the Jiaofang Palace, and I didn't have a phoenix seal, what kind of queen of the middle palace is this!"
"Even I, a rough country woman who doesn't know a single big word, knows these inconsequential numbers. I heard that the Queen Mother has only learned people, why don't you even understand such a simple thing? ”
"I'm my mother's grandmother, so I'll have to ask for clarity today. Don't look at our Xie family's small family, just bully our Xie family's girl! ”
Empress Dowager Yu: "......"
Everyone: "......"
……
Xu can eat three bowls of rice in one meal, and he has a lot of strength and speaks louder. What he said just now was similar to what he shouted. It is never an exaggeration to describe it as deafening.
The impression of the ladies on Mrs. Xu has also undergone earth-shattering changes.
Where is this country rough woman!
This is clearly a cow who dares to argue with the Queen Mother in person!
Don't look at Xu's vulgar sentences, but every sentence is reasonable. When you think about it, it's all to the point. The ladies who watched the excitement were also shocked.
Look at Empress Dowager Yu's complexion, red and white, changing and changing. My body trembled with anger. I forgot to scold angrily for a while!
No matter how it ends today, they must keep this lesson in mind and never quarrel with Mrs. Xu in the future. lest you be made to be unable to get off the stage in person.
Xiao Yuhan looked at the mighty Xu family in a daze, and subconsciously glanced at his own mother, Mrs. Xiao.
At her canonization ceremony in the Middle Palace back then, how could Mrs. Xiao dare to say such a thing?
Even if the Xu family is reckless and vulgar, his heart of protection for Xie Mingxi is moving. She was also envious......
At this time, Xie Mingxi also fell into a rare shock in his life.
These days, she and Empress Dowager Yu have used their own means, and the fight has never stopped.
Empress Dowager Yu deliberately said these things in public today, forcing her to express her position in public. She pushed the boat down the river, because she had already dug a deep pit, and she waited for Empress Dowager Yu to fall into the pit and couldn't extricate herself......
I never thought that the Xu family would suddenly come to such a show.
After the shock, there was warmth and laughter from the bottom of my heart.
Xie Mingxi showed the first sincere smile of the day, warm and bright: "Grandmother, don't be impatient." I knew that my grandmother was thinking about me, but things today were not as she thought they were. ”
"The queen mother has lived in this palace for decades, and she is reluctant to move out, and she has no intention of coveting power."
"The queen mother temporarily keeps the phoenix seal for me, which is also a good intention. It's all because I'm young and knowledgeable, and I've never taken care of palace affairs. So, I was able to be lazy for a while, and I was able to stay with my mother and learn how to take care of the palace. In the future, the queen mother will hand over the phoenix seal to me with her own hands. ”
"No matter what, I want to thank my grandmother for protecting me, a married girl from the Xie family!"
The last sentence is a bit of a joke.
All the ladies laughed, and you and I played a round game: "The queen is really funny!" ”
"Old Lady Xu is really majestic today, I have to think about it, have I ever offended the old lady in the past. In the future, when speaking in front of Mrs. Xu, you and I have to be cautious. ”
"Isn't it? Today's palace banquet is also very lively! ”
Empress Dowager Yu pursed the corners of her mouth and glanced at Xu deeply. Seeing Xu Shi feel cold in his heart, cold sweat broke out on his back.
She shouldn't be able to get out of the palace alive today!
Xie Mingxi smiled at the right time: "Grandmother, please take a seat!" Standing like this all the time, I'm afraid that my legs and feet are sore and inconvenient. ”
Xu Shi steadied himself and squeezed out a smile in response: "Thank you for the queen's compassion." ”
