Chapter 238, Chinese New Year's Eve Banquet

Su Jinchu and Su Jingui sisters plucked up the courage to taste the face of Su Qingyi, the side concubine of the king.

It smells weird, but it tastes good, and it's a good delicacy......

The two sisters sighed in their hearts at the same time, although they were not as exaggerated as Su Jinyan, but they didn't say that it was not delicious, Su Qingyi was relieved for the time being, as long as it was not very delicious, it would be good.

In the front yard of the palace, the princess also asked people to prepare this jackfruit and give it to everyone to taste, but many people are not used to eating it, and they just feel very uncomfortable smelling it.

The princess didn't force it, after all, the taste of this thing was really special, and some people couldn't get used to it, so it was right.

The emperor really couldn't stand the smell of this thing and wanted to get angry, but when he saw that the princess was eating very happily, he swallowed it when it came to his mouth!

"Princess Dai, this thing smells weird, is it that delicious?" Several princesses who were in the same place with the princess on behalf of the princess, when they saw the princess on behalf of the princess eating with relish, asked one by one with puzzled faces.

They really can't figure it out, this thing tastes weird, what's so delicious about it?

"Eh, everyone, this is the best fruit of my Nanyue country, the taste is indeed a little strange, it is normal for everyone to not be able to eat it, this is the concubine's inconsiderate ......" The princess was a little embarrassed.

Why did she forget, this is not the country of Nanyue, this is the Dashun Dynasty, the people of the Dashun Dynasty, the taste is light, and it is normal to be unaccustomed to eating something like this.

It's also to blame her for not thinking about it, and rashly letting people present it, making it so embarrassing!

The princess opened her mouth in a sneering manner, while not forgetting to look at the expressions of the other people around her, and sure enough, everyone looked like they were alive......

"Brother Huang, everyone, the princess has no intention of offending everyone, please forgive me!" The acting king was very embarrassed, this kind of banquet, what are you doing with this weird thing.

But after thinking about it, it seems that the side concubine Su Qingyi also likes to eat very much, and when she scolded her, she apologized to the emperor and the ministers.

"Although the taste is a little strange, this palace thinks it's not bad......" Qin Guifei said with a smile.

When she smelled the smell before, she also thought it was weird, but when she saw that the princess ate it with relish, she also tasted it and found that although it smelled strange, it felt good to eat.

At the moment, he smiled and opened his mouth to play a round!

Princess Dai glanced at Concubine Qin gratefully, and the two looked at each other and smiled, but those who were not used to hearing it felt that the two of them were sick!

"Sister Meng, I can't eat such a strange thing, my sister's courage, my sister really admires it......" Yu Guifei did not forget to fall into the well, but she had been paying attention to the faces of the ministers and wives around her.

Yu Guifei covered her mouth and smiled and spoke, the meaning of ridicule in her words was clearly visible, and Qin Guifei frowned.

What the hell is going on with this Qiao Yu'er, which tendon is wrong, how can she find trouble for herself today when she has nothing to do?

Qin Guifei replied with a smile: "Sister Qiao, it tastes very good, why don't you ......try it?"

Disgusting me, sample, I can stuff it into my mouth, a few words can't disgust me.

Yu Guifei's face was pale, with a hellish expression, she waved her hand again and again, and closed her mouth in disgust, the anger and depression in her heart!

The emperor glared at the two of them, Yu Guifei turned her head away, and Qin Guifei continued to enjoy the deliciousness, and the emperor saw that Qin Guifei ate so deliciously, so he had to cover his face·····

Although he is the emperor and a husband, it is not easy to scold him in the public.

After the three banquets, all the guests left the palace in twos and threes, and went to their respective homes, and the emperor's two people, Qin Guifei and Yu Guifei, also went back to the palace, and the palace of the king, which had been lively all day, finally quieted down.

On behalf of the princess, the princess of Nanyue stayed in her room, looking at the child lying in the cradle, her face was gloomy and terrible, thinking that she was the princess of Nanyue, since she was ......

"See the prince!" When the acting king came to the dormitory of the acting princess, he happened to see the acting princess staring at the child in the cradle with a gloomy face, and frowned.

He knew that it would be unfair to the princess to do this, but for the sake of diplomatic relations between the two countries, he had to do so.

As the prince of the Dashun Dynasty, Dashun is his home, and at this critical moment, it is necessary to stabilize the Nanyue Kingdom, otherwise the Nanyue Kingdom and the northern nomads will be sandwiched between the north and the south, and the Dashun Dynasty will be commissioned.

"The concubine has seen the prince......" The acting princess reacted immediately, and bowed to the acting king with a smile.

For the man who acted for the king, she was selected by her own hands at the beginning, and it has been good for her in the past few years, what should be given is not bad at all, and she should come, and she is taking care of the affairs of the king's mansion.

The only regret is that she has not given birth to a son and a half daughter for the king, and she has seen a lot of doctors, who mean that she has suffered serious physical losses and needs to be carefully recuperated......

"Princess, this king knows, let you be the mother of this child, wronged you, but for the sake of the diplomatic relations between the two countries, this king has to do this, here, this king to the princess to make amends......" The acting king didn't know that the princess of Nanyue was not happy at the moment, and it was not happy for any woman to be a mother to a child who was not his own flesh and blood.

However, the current situation is compelling, if you don't take this opportunity to stabilize the side of South Vietnam, when the time comes, the north and the south will start a war at the same time, and the Dashun Dynasty will survive in the cracks!

He and the emperor are both gambling, betting on which one to choose among the kings of Nanyue among his own daughters and grandsons, if the king of Nanyue chooses his grandson, then there is nothing to say.

None of them thought that Xixue's girl, since she was resentful because of this, she instigated the prince of Nanyue to try to attack the Dashun Dynasty......

"Lord, don't do it, the concubine is the princess of the Dashun Dynasty, this is a matter of duty, the prince doesn't have to be polite!" Although the princess of Nanyue was bitter in her heart, she had nothing to say.

Now that her husband has come to make amends to herself like this, she is born as a woman, a woman who loves her husband deeply, what else can she do?

Now, I have been in the door for three years, and my body has not been well adjusted, and I have not been able to give birth to a son and a half daughter for the prince, and now I have a son, although it is not my own, but after all, it is the flesh and blood of the prince.......

In addition, she also knows something about the affairs of Nanyue, and knows that the seventh princess of Xixue of the Dashun Dynasty married by her brother Wang has a grudge against her mother country, so she instigates her father to send troops to the Dashun Dynasty.

The acting king was also very pleased in his heart, although he and the princess of Nanyue were married by the emperor's order, but in the past three years, the princess has not been flying because she is a princess, which he was very moved and very pleased with, and now if he is not forced to do so, he will not let the princess of Nanyue suffer such grievances.

After the Su family came back with their three daughters, Su Jinchu and Su Jingui went back first, and Su Jinyan stayed in Xie's house.

"Mother, did you ever find out at the banquet today that something ......was wrong with the modern princess," Su Jinyan lowered his voice and muttered in the ear of his mother Xie.

When she stood up on behalf of the princess before, she found that something was wrong, but after all, it was just her guess, and it was normal to ask her mother at this moment.

After all, she is a woman who has not been out of the cabinet, and she died in her previous life just after giving birth, and everything she knows is seen from books, what if she guesses wrong?

After all, my mother is a person from the past, and she is also aware of the changes in her body, so it is best to ask.

Xie Shi was puzzled, why did his second daughter stay, so he asked himself what was wrong with the princess, what did she say?

Xie Shi thought about it, and still spoke: "There is nothing wrong with the princess, you mean ......"

"After my mother gave birth to her eldest sister, I felt that my pelvis was widening...... "Su Jinyan was slightly sluggish, and then spoke directly.

She can't manage it so much, and now the top priority is to find out if the woman gives birth to a child, and the pelvis will widen......

"What does this ...... have to do with the princess?"

Xie Shi was full of doubts, how could she say such a thing, and it was her daughter who asked about herself, which ......

"Mother, please tell me the truth, yes or no, this matter is related to the righteous sister...... "There are some things that need not be said too clearly, Xie is also a smart person, so he naturally knows the meaning of her words.

Moreover, if the words are too straightforward, there will be no sense of mystery, just point to the end.

Xie Shi saw that his daughter was asking seriously, so he told the truth, when she was pregnant with Su Jinchu, she obviously had a thin willow waist before she was pregnant, but after giving birth, she couldn't wear the previous rest clothes, and she thought she had gained weight at that time.

After taking a closer look, I realized that it was not that I had gained weight, but that my pelvis had become wider, and the previous clothes were all too small in the buttocks, so she also checked the medical books......

After Su Jinyan got her mother's affirmative answer, she smiled and said nothing, but she was happy in her heart, it seemed that her previous guess was correct.

The child of the acting princess is indeed not her own, it is very likely that the emperor and the acting king will mean it, the purpose is to stabilize the Nanyue country and avoid the external troubles of the north and south of the Dashun Dynasty at that time.

For the Xie family, Su Jinyan still believed it, and at this moment he told his guess, Xie was shocked, and never thought that it would be such a thing.

However, she didn't forget to remind Su Jinyan that some people have special physiques, and they recover quickly after giving birth, so there is no such thing......

Su Jinyan didn't expect this, but she trusted her instincts very much, the child of the princess, she was seventy or eighty percent sure that it was not the princess's own flesh and blood.

After all, the physical condition of the princess is there, this person who has been weak since childhood, she conceived a child without conditioning, and there was nothing to do three days after giving birth, which is really unreasonable......

The matter of washing the three banquets in the royal mansion was revealed, and the three days passed quickly, and it was time for the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet.

Su Jinyan's mother and daughter made an exception and were allowed to enter the palace for a banquet, and followed the old lady to enter the palace in a proper manner......

Su Jinyan was born in Fanghua, the most outstanding of the three sisters, even if she can dress up in a low-key manner at this moment, it is still difficult to resist the peerless elegance, and as soon as she enters the banquet, she has aroused the resentment of many nobles of the family.

This is what Su Jinyan has thought of a long time ago, she originally intended to dress up in a calm and elegant manner, not competing with a hundred flowers, but she has become unique, and it is particularly eye-catching among the crowd of dressed up.

Even when the emperor came in, he glanced at Su Jinyan meaningfully.

Obviously, the emperor just glanced at it lightly, but Su Jinyan felt strange in his heart, not only the emperor, but also Concubine Qin looked at her thoughtfully.

Could it be that he was dressed plain and elegant, but it turned out to be the opposite, deliberately showing off at the banquet?

But it's not right, it stands to reason that as the daughter of the concubine of the Pingguo Mansion, she is not qualified to participate in such a Chinese New Year's Eve night banquet, and this year's banquet is specially ordered by the palace, and the four of them have a chance, this ......

Because of the low status of Su Jinyan's mother and daughter, but it was specially announced in the palace, this seat arrangement is neither front nor back, and belongs to the middle.

Halfway through the banquet, after three rounds of drinking, a princess proposed that the women of the appropriate age from each family perform on stage, which won the emperor's approval.

Su Jinyan understood at this time, it turned out that the reason why the four of his mother and daughter were able to enter the palace to attend the banquet was because of the emperor's promotion, and the other was probably recommended by a certain prince or the prince, and the meaning was self-evident.

Thinking about such a banquet, isn't it a blind date banquet in disguise?

The daughters of the ministers of the court, or the granddaughters, performed on the stage, won the favor of the emperor, and may enter the palace as concubines, or they can be given to a certain prince in marriage, or given to a certain prince to enrich the backyard.

How can this be good, if she can, she is not willing to enter the palace gate half a step, but according to her appearance, coupled with today's unique dress, I am afraid it will be difficult to escape this fate.

If she can make a main room for others, it is not bad, but according to her status as a concubine of the Su family who is out of the fifth room, I am afraid it is impossible to make a main room for the children of the clan, can't she escape the fate of her previous life?

Could it be that I can only be a concubine in this life?

No, don't, I'd rather die than be a concubine in this life......

The concubines of the emperor's relatives are not so easy to do, and when they are young and beautiful, they may still have a foothold on their own, but what about after they are old and decrepit?

On the stage, the daughters or granddaughters of ministers came to the stage one after another to perform, singing and dancing, playing the piano and painting, but Su Jinyan was in a trance.......

If it goes on like this, won't it be her turn soon, I just hope that everyone will ignore themselves and deliberately skip themselves, so that they may be able to escape.

Xie naturally also understood that this so-called Chinese New Year's Eve banquet was a disguised enrichment of the backyard of the emperor and the princes, and subconsciously looked at the second daughter, only to see Su Jinyan's face was pale, and his forehead was full of sweat.

What can I do about this, according to the appearance of the second daughter, this will definitely not be able to escape, and the identity is there, it is not qualified to be the main room, can it really only be a concubine?

Her poor daughter, why is she so miserable, why does she have to be a concubine?
