Chapter 424: One King and One Minister

The etiquette of the crown prince and concubine is about a little similar to that of the canonized queen, anyway, it is completely different from a folk wife.

Li Xia followed the Empress Dowager Jin, not to mention the liveliness of the bride entering the door, even the bride, and she couldn't see it, this trip to the crown prince and concubine was actually a festive and grand large-scale palace banquet.

Empress Dowager Jin is alone at the top, Empress Jiang is a little behind, just like the prince standing in the middle of the ministers and the emperor at the court meeting, the first on the left is Su Guifei, and below Su Guifei, but it is Yao Xianfei, opposite, Tang Jiayu sat on the right hand first, after Tang Jiayu, he entered the palace with Tang Jiayu and sealed several Guiyi.

Li Xia sat next to Mrs. Yan, in the full hall, and his position was neither forward nor backward.

It was an extremely boring feast. However, this kind of palace banquet is to show the royal grandeur and majesty, and it is not intended to make everyone happy.

Li Xia's eyebrows drooped slightly, and he sat next to Mrs. Yan, occasionally looking up at the Empress Dowager Jin, who was at the top and looked safe and happy, and Empress Jiang with an indifferent face.

The lengthy etiquette passed quickly, the Empress Dowager Jin got up, Empress Jiang stood up, and the ladies and ladies sitting in the hall hurriedly followed, kneeling down,

Li Xia was next to Mrs. Yan, and withdrew from the crowd, and a small chamberlain walked closely behind, caught up with Li Xia, and said with a smile: "Nine Niangzi, the Queen Mother, please come over." ”

Li Xia smiled first, then looked at Mrs. Yan, and without waiting for her to speak, Mrs. Yan smiled first: "I'll wait for you outside." ”

Li Xia responded, followed the little chamberlain, and went out of the hall against the flow of people, and after walking not far, he caught up with the slow Empress Dowager Jin and Concubine Yao Xian.

"Let's go, let's see the bride." Empress Dowager Jin looked at Li Xia, who was hurrying up, and smiled.

Li Xia smiled and walked on the other side of the Empress Dowager Jin, who was still walking slowly and slowly, talking to Concubine Yao Xian.

“…… This is Su Niangniang's words," Concubine Yao Xian glanced at Li Xia, "The Wei family's push grace this time is indeed a bit unusual, Su Niangniang said that she asked people to check the old files of the year, and when Jiang Niangniang married the emperor, it was not as high as the Wei family's push benefactor." ”

"It's different." Empress Dowager Jin said slowly: "Although the emperor was an only son back then, there was no prince at that time, the Jiang family was the prince and concubine at that time, and now he is the prince, which is very different." ”

"It's right, but many people in the palace feel that the Wei family should not overpower Jiang Niangniang back then when they marry in." Concubine Yao Xian said with a smile in her words.

Li Xia listened attentively, listening to what he said, the etiquette of the crown prince and concubine this time must have many places that surpassed Queen Jiang back then. Even if it is also the crown prince and concubine, this ceremony of the Wei family is presided over by Empress Jiang, and it must be much more luxurious than the ceremony presided over by the Empress Dowager Zheng back then.

After all, Empress Dowager Zheng was known for her frugality, and the current Empress Jiang is famous for her luxury and exquisiteness.

But gossip is never reasonable.

The three of them walked slowly, talking, and entered the festive palace of the imperial princess, and the pair of female envoys and bridesmaids stood under the corridor.

The outer room of the upper room is very spacious, and Wei Shi is wearing a black embroidered gold phoenix dress, and his whole body is complicated and extravagant, and he sits on the couch in the outer room.

Li Xia didn't know if this royal etiquette was the same as the folks, and the Wei family at this time was also sitting in the tent, but it seemed that it should be about the same.

When the Empress Dowager Jin entered the house, the almost crowded bride maid hurriedly bent her knees to salute, Li Xia looked sideways at Wei who was sitting still, well, look at it like this, this is sitting in a tent, and the rules of sitting in a tent are the same as those of the people, and they are not allowed to move.

Empress Dowager Jin sat sideways opposite Wei, bowed her head slightly, looked carefully at Wei under the head of the jade, reached out and patted Wei's hand gently, and smiled gently, "Good boy, you have worked hard all day today, and when the prince comes back in a while, he will be able to go to this tired man's clothes, and he will be able to soothe and soothe well." ”

"When the prince comes back and goes to this dress, I'm afraid it won't be soothing." Concubine Yao Xian said with a smile, "I will sacrifice to the Taimiao early tomorrow morning, what else is there, I took a look at the list from Jiang Niangniang, the head of the line is not good, I am afraid that it will be hard for a while." ”

"Getting married is a big deal, how can it not be hard? When you got married, your mother was very happy, and in the future, there will be someone in this palace who will give her a hand and share one or two. ”

Empress Dowager Jin's tone was gentle, and Wei didn't dare to move, only smiled and drooped her eyelids.

"Niangniang has arrived, and I am still looking for Niangniang everywhere, thinking of coming with Niangniang." Empress Jiang's voice sounded outside the door first, and when the words fell, the curtain was raised, and Empress Jiang carried her skirt and walked in with the autumn breeze outside.

"You're so busy, we can't wait for you." Empress Dowager Jin seemed to be in a pretty good mood and smiled.

"It's not, just now Niangniang said that the Wei family married in, and you will have a helper in the future, and you will be able to make it easier or two." Concubine Yao Xian bowed her knees and said with a smile.

Empress Jiang ignored Concubine Yao Xian, and looked at Li Xia slightly sideways, "Hey, you are here, the Tang clan is looking for you everywhere, saying that they want to talk to you." ”

"Today is not more than usual, when I came, the eldest aunt confessed to me several times, and I was not allowed to walk around and talk nonsense, saying that if I was wrong, it was a mistake in the law of the country, and it was a big crime." Li Xia lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, with some excessive caution.

"That's the same, you and she used to be good sisters, but now ......" Empress Jiang dragged a long voice slightly, "One is a noble concubine, a gentleman, and the other is a minister. ”

Li Xia's heart jumped violently, and she lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes, "Yes, the eldest aunt said the same thing." ”

This gentleman and a minister, this long sound that seems to have nothing, this day and place, throws out a faint long line......

"What time is it?" Empress Dowager Jin turned her head to look at the house, only to see the house full of brides, not to see the leak, and she didn't need to see it, and someone immediately answered.

"It's almost time?" Empress Dowager Jin looked at Empress Jiang and said.

Empress Jiang smiled, "It's still early, this is the time set by Qintian, it is better to say that it is better to be late than early, Niangniang is old, I will accompany you back to rest first, and when the time comes, I will invite Niangniang to come over." ”

"Alas, this person is old, and he can't even support it." Empress Dowager Jin said as she stood up, Li Xia hurriedly stepped forward to help her, "If it's still early, I can't wait, let Ah Xia help me back, I don't need you to send it, there are so many things going on here, the Yao family will also stay and accompany the Wei family's sister." ”

Concubine Yao Xian smiled while supporting the Empress Dowager Jin, all the way to the Hanging Flower Gate, Queen Jiang stood up, sent out of the main hall, stood at the door of the main hall, watched the Empress Dowager Jin slowly walk out of the Hanging Flower Gate, turned around and gave a few orders, and went out along the verandah.
