Chapter 169: Willing to be a side concubine
I don't know who found out about the last time Song Wu'er met the prince in the restaurant, and the two became the talk of the people after dinner, and I felt that Song Wu'er was too unruly.
The daughters of other ministers' families don't usually go out on the streets, and they pay more attention after the marriage. The girl of the Song family really has no rules, and a place like a restaurant that brings together three religions and nine streams can not be a girl who discusses relatives.
Affected by the rumors on the street, Song Wu'er was detained at home by the Zhao family, and strengthened the palace rules and etiquette training every day, and the Zhao family also had to teach Song Wu'er the skills of housekeeping and maneuvering.
"It's only been a long time since I left the room, why did you lie on the table again and stand up!"
Song Wu'er was pulled up by the Zhao family early in the morning to learn the palace rules, in fact, she knew it, but sometimes she always forget, and every time she forgets, she will be punished.
"Mother, I'm tired, let me rest for a while!"
Zhao couldn't help Song Wu'er, so he put the pastry he had just brought in front of her, "That's all for today, are you hungry?" Cushion your stomach with pastries first, and dinner will be ready immediately. ”
Song Wu'er sat up suddenly, grabbed a piece and wanted to stuff it into her mouth, but when she saw Zhao's warning eyes, she had to take small sips and send it to her mouth.
After eating two pieces of pastry, Song Wu'er felt less hungry, so he elegantly wiped his mouth and hands with a handkerchief.
"Mother, I've been so bored lately, can I go out and play?"
Zhao refused Song Wu'er's request without thinking about it, and every time her daughter went out, she had to cause some trouble. Seeing Song Wu'er lying on the table deflated, Zhao thought about it.
"By the way, there is a banquet in the palace tomorrow that you are going to, the envoys of the Chihe Kingdom are leaving Beijing, and the emperor has held a farewell banquet for them, you should go to relax, be honest in the palace, don't make trouble."
Thinking that his daughter almost caused a catastrophe, the Zhao family was worried about her, for fear that the concubine would hold a grudge.
"Is the Chihe Kingdom going to marry Princess Anyue to the kingdom of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? What about Princess Anyue, will you go back? ”
If it weren't for this Princess Anyue, I'm afraid Lou Lichen wouldn't have temporarily decided to play a scene with her in front of the emperor.
Zhao gently patted the back of Song Wu'er's hand, "You can rest assured, Princess Anyue has been promised to the prince of an unknown county, and she should know tomorrow." Anyway, it is impossible to marry the crown prince again. ”
At that time, when the prince was about to withdraw from his family, the envoys of the Chihe Kingdom were very reluctant, Princess Anyue was the most noble princess in their country, and only the identity of the prince could be worthy of her, and this prince was too ignorant.
It took several twists and turns to appease the envoys, and they reluctantly agreed to marry the princess to the prince of the county.
Song Wu'er thought that the practice banquet of the envoys of the Chihe Kingdom was also the wedding banquet of Princess Anyue, so she couldn't dress too flamboyantly, so how did Chun'er usually come, and it had a light voice.
It stands to reason that Song Wu'er can't come to this kind of banquet before she gets married, but Lou Xingzhen is about to give birth, and Chu Xun'er has been calling herself sick, only Song Shipu and Zhao Shi will inevitably look thin if they come, and it just so happened that Song Wu'er wanted to come out to relax, so he took her out.
followed Song Shipu and Zhao all the way into the palace, Song Wu'er sat honestly in his position as soon as he entered, and when someone came, he immediately got up and saluted, which was much more regular than before.
Sensing that someone was staring at her, Song Wu'er rolled her eyes and found that it was Mo Lianhuai and Mo Lianyu who were sitting opposite, and next to them were Lord Rui and his wife, and the four of them were looking at themselves.
Song Wu'er hurriedly lowered her head, if only Mo Lianhuai and Mo Lianyu could still stare back, what is the matter with Prince Rui and Princess Rui?
At this time, the king of Yingjun came with Song Yuanniang and the lord of Linchun, Song Wu'er subconsciously went to look at Mo Lianhuai, and found that the other party had lowered his eyes and kept staring at the teacup on the table.
The Yingjun Wang and his wife and the Linchun County Lord walked directly in front of Song Shipu and Zhao to salute, and Song Wu'er immediately stood up and saluted.
When she looked up at them again, she found that the faces of the three people didn't seem to be very good, Song Wu'er walked over and grabbed Linchun's hand and asked her what was wrong, she just shook her head, not at all like the big grin before, when she was wronged, she threatened to help her little Linchun.
Seeing Song Wu'er pulling Linchun to speak, Zhao asked in a low voice, "Still can't be persuaded?" ”
Song Yuanniang sighed, "It's all because I'm always used to her." ”
Zhao sighed helplessly, and his melancholy climbed up his eyebrows, but he still comforted Song Yuanniang, "It's okay, maybe Linchun will figure it out by herself after a while, and go back and let Wu Er accompany her more." ”
Song Wu'er overheard a little conversation between the two, only to know that Linchun was still depressed because of Mo Lianhuai's affairs, she really wanted to persuade Linchun to give up Mo Lianhuai, she always had a bad premonition.
At this time, a father-in-law who came in shouted: "The emperor has arrived, Liu Guifei has arrived, Concubine Shuniang has arrived, His Royal Highness the Prince has arrived, and His Royal Highness the King of Nan'an has arrived."
, His Royal Highness King Yong'an arrived. ”
The group hurriedly knelt down and saluted, and after the emperor, concubine and prince were seated, the emperor spoke: "Zhong Aiqing is flat." ”
After getting up, the Yingjun Wang family also sat down, and they headed at the table of Song Shipu, Zhao and Song Wu'er. Song Wu'er stared at Lou Lichen, who had just sat down, and every time she saw him wearing a prince's clothes, an indescribable majesty emanated from her body.
Song Wu'er suddenly looked at Lou Lichen, and she was so frightened that she quickly looked away. Lou Lichen has come over openly, it should have nothing to do with Princess Anyue.
When Song Wu'er looked to see if there was Princess Anyue in the seat, her father-in-law then came to report: "Princess Anyue has arrived, and the envoy of Chihe Country has arrived." ”
Finally able to see the famous princess of Chihe Kingdom, Song Wu'er stretched out her head to look at the door, there are many people here who have already seen Princess Anyue's true face at the reception banquet, and her curiosity is not as heavy as Song Wu'er, but she is still secretly looking forward to it in her heart.
A young girl walked in with her head held high, her steps were light, her waist was graceful, and she looked like she was practicing dance all year round. There is a charm in the gestures that make people reluctant to look away. With fair skin and gentle appearance, it is difficult to associate with the rumored person.
Many people thought that this resourceful princess should look as shrewd and wise as the young lady Shousuke, but who knew that the princess's appearance could only make people associate with red faces and troubles.
Some people say that Princess Yan Ning and the youngest daughter of the Song family are delicate and beautiful, and they do not lose to this Princess Anyue, but today the youngest daughter of the Song family is dressed in plain clothes, and she is still a little worse than Princess Anyue.
"See the Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty."
A group of people saluted Emperor Yuanxi and Emperor Yuanxi was expressionless and it took a while to let them calm down this envoy of the Chihe State was too arrogant so
He also has to show the dignity of the emperor.
Princess Anyue is seated, located at the top of King Rui's mansion, which can be regarded as giving enough face to Chihe Country.
When everyone arrived, Emperor Yuanxi began to announce important matters, "Everyone gathered here today to practice for the envoys of the Chihe Kingdom, and during this time, the Chihe Kingdom has brought us a lot of tributes unique to their country.
At the same time, in order to express Chihe's sincerity, he was willing to send Princess Anyue to kiss. Before, I wanted to marry Princess Anyue to the crown prince of my dynasty, but my son has already been a person with a heart, and I am willing to fulfill this pair of mandarin ducks! ”
Emperor Yuanxi looked at Song Wu'er as he spoke, attracting everyone's eyes to look here, she found that Princess An Yue's expression didn't seem to be particularly good, and at this moment, she really wanted to get under the table.
The emperor said just say it, but he had to gasp and give her the pot on his back.
"Mo Lianhuai, the prince of King Rui, is at the right age for marriage, a talent, good at political affairs, and the smart Princess Anyue is really a good match, it is a rare talent in my dynasty, today I will give you two marriages, Princess Anyue has been in my dynasty for a few days, and the minister will ask Qin Tianjian to help you two pick a good day and get married as soon as possible."
Song Wu'er was so shocked that she almost screamed, she quickly turned her head to look at Linchun, and found that her eyes were also wide open, and she couldn't believe it.
Mo Lianhuai had already been told by his father that he was going to marry Princess Anyue, but now he was not so surprised, but he was unwilling. He finally refused one, how could there be another one that he couldn't refuse. You must know that if he resists the decree, the entire Ruiwang Mansion will not be better.
Ignoring Mo Lianyu's stop, Mo Lianhuai got up and stood in the center and knelt down to thank him.
Princess Anyue didn't repulse Mo Lianhuai's appearance when she saw it, but she still looked down on him a little bit, just the son of a county king. she
Reluctantly, he walked to Mo Lianhuai and knelt down to thank Emperor Yuanxi.
"Wait a minute."
Hearing this voice, Song Wu'er was shocked, she turned her head to look at Linchun's location, and found that the person was gone. I saw a figure floating past and kneeling in front of the emperor.
"Your Majesty, Linchun has loved the prince of King Murui for a long time, and begged the emperor to give him a marriage, and Linchun is willing to be a side concubine."
As soon as the words came out, there was an uproar in the court, and the emperor's face was not particularly good, how could the county lord lower his price like this, he usually liked this little county lord, but when it came to this kind of thing, he was so out of line.
Zhao was so angry that she almost fainted, and Song Wu'er hurriedly helped her to calm down.
"Lord Linchun, the king of Yingjun will help you pick a good family affair, why should you wronged yourself like this?"
Princess Anyue was a little unhappy, "Your Majesty, why is this county lord wronged if he wants to marry the prince of Rui Wang as a side concubine?" The emperor is still afraid that I will bully her, isn't it a happy thing for the county lord to have such a husband with good quality? ”
Thinking that a county lord actually took the initiative to be a side concubine, Princess An Yue had a smile on the corner of her mouth, this family affair was not too bad, she tilted her head and looked at the prince generously, and there was still a pity in her heart.
She felt that no one was more handsome than this prince, and he didn't look as unbearable as rumored, if she married the prince, when the time came to say a few good words next to his pillow, were you afraid that Chihe Country would not have a chance?
It's a shame.
Listening to Princess Anyue's words, the emperor's face became gloomy, and now it is not like him to give marriage or not, which is really embarrassing.
"Lian Huai, what do you think about this matter?"
