When I arrived at the palace, it was already crowded with princes and nobles, dignitaries and nobles. As soon as the Ma family appeared, they were immediately surrounded. Now that this battle has been fought, as one of the deputy marshals, Xiangyang Hou Ma Bofu has become famous in the first battle, and the emperor has a lot of praise. The Ma family is about to have a princess, and Shen Xingyi, the wife of the Marquis of Xiangyang, has been the head of the Beijing ladies for many years, this family is a heavyweight, how can no one catch up.

Shen Xingyi was surrounded, and she couldn't take care of her two daughters for a while, so she could only let her daughters act on their own. The sisters of the Ma family have always been friendly with the ladies of the Qin family and the Shen family, and a few friends greeted each other when they saw each other.

At this time, the emperor came over with the empress and the crown prince.

And all the people began to make a big salute. The emperor and the empress sat side by side at the top, and the crown prince was at the top of the left, and the emperor called him flat. Everyone sat down.

The palace banquet was held in an orderly manner, and some ministers sang praises, which was nothing more than words such as the peace of the country and the people, and the smooth war in the northwest.

The emperor liked to listen to it, and a banquet was held vividly. The queen has been smiling gently, and she has also praised the emperor, and the emperor is more and more happy. After the prince led the ministers to toast the emperor, he looked at a gap and asked someone to send a plate of dishes to Ma Shimin.

Seeing this small move, Empress Fang couldn't help but be very happy, and whispered to the emperor: "Your Majesty, you see, our two sons love their daughters-in-law. Rui'er won't talk about it, she has always held Mingyue in the palm of her hand. This Kun'er is only so old, and she cares for Shimin very much, and in the future, after they get married, they will definitely be able to be as harmonious as Rui'er. ”

The emperor was also very satisfied with Ma Simin, the future prospective daughter-in-law, and said: "Of course my son is like me. Isn't I also kind to the Queen? ”

Empress Fang couldn't help but blush, and whispered: "The emperor laughed at the concubines again, but the concubines are all grandmothers." ”

The Emperor laughed. Suddenly, I remembered one more thing: "By the way, speaking of grandmother, I miss Anfu." She was a small person, and her parents left her side to fight for the country, but it was difficult for her. Today's palace banquet, why didn't the queen bring Anfu? She likes this kind of lively occasion the most. ”

Empress Fang mentioned her precious granddaughter, and the smile on her face became even bigger: "An Fu likes this occasion the most. Just now, the concubine originally wanted to bring Anfu with her. However, this child, at a young age, has a big idea, and he has to come by himself, there is no way, the concubine can only ask Mama Liao and others to wait for a good life, and it is estimated that she will come over at this time. ”

As he was talking, a pair of grandmothers and palace maids were waiting for a small person to come over. It is the lord of Anfu who is pink-makeup.

As soon as he saw the lord of Anfu, the emperor was very happy, and immediately called someone to hug him, personally took it with the empress, coaxed her to eat, and talked to her.

Duchess of Mingli, Madame Yang, was talking to the old Duchess of Liguo, Madame Yin, who was sitting next to her: "The little county lord is deeply favored by the emperor. ”

Mrs. Yin is also very fond of this granddaughter, she smiled and watched Xiao Anfu talk to the emperor: "No, although Anfu is young, he is very sensible and lovable." At a young age, her parents went to Daxia to fight, and she didn't have her parents by her side, although she grew up in the palace, she was cared for by the queen and taken care of by her grandmothers, so she was a little pitiful. I often asked my eldest daughter-in-law to hand over posts to the palace and invite the county lord of Anfu to come and live in our Qin family for a while. We have a lot of children in our family, and she and her cousins can also talk about going together. I often joke about it, and I don't miss my parents anymore. ”

Mrs. Yang nodded and said, "Hey, outsiders all look at the high position of the national teacher, but they don't see how hard the national teacher is." Not to mention the handling of government affairs, this war will have to be in charge. Back then, when I had just married into the Shen family, the old man of the Heavenly Master also went out to fight? At that time, my mother-in-law was very worried. The family is cautious. Now, Mingyue has become a national teacher, she is a delicate girl's family, the child is still so young, and she has to go to the battlefield with her, but it is even harder than the heavenly master back then. Ay. ”

When Mrs. Yin heard this, she couldn't help but be touched by her heart: "Hey, Mrs. Yang, our two families have the best relationship, and I won't hide it from you." Our Qin family can have today thanks to my daughter. Back then, I was a daughter-in-law, and my life was difficult, and all my energy was focused on my eldest son, who is now Guogong, not to mention my daughter, even my youngest son, I can't take care of it. Now that I think about it, I really mistreated Mingyue. ”

"It's hard for Mingyue to carry our family alone, and she is very filial to me. Now, even if I want to make up for it, I don't have a chance. Therefore, it is particularly painful for Anfu. ”

Mrs. Yang is naturally clear about the affairs of the Qin family, and she said with a smile: "Old lady, the past is over." My own daughter, where can I make up for it? Mingyue is a filial person. Although the lord of Anfu loves to be lively and naughty, he is really a good child, and it doesn't matter if he loves more. ”

"Besides, I heard our master say that the last time our Heavenly Master came to the capital, he fell in love with Lord Anfu. said that she is a good seedling of cultivation, and in the future, when she reaches the age of six, she will go up the mountain to cultivate. When the time comes, I don't know how hard the days will be, and it doesn't matter if it hurts more now. ”

When Mrs. Yin heard this, she couldn't help frowning: "Hey, it's not, Mingyue also told me before, in the future, Anfu will be sent to the mountain, and I don't know how many years it will take to go down the mountain?" It's killing me. I heard that when I went up the mountain, none of the maids and servants could take them up, what should I do? She's still a child. ”

Mrs. Yang comforted her and said, "You don't have to worry. Our Heavenly Master and his old man love Mingyue the most, and he is also a pain for Anfu, so he will definitely take care of Lord Anfu. Besides, the lord of Anfu is to go up the mountain to cultivate immortals, which is the life of immortals, which is different from our secular life, and there is no need for these maids and grandmothers to serve. ”

Mrs. Yin thought about it and said, "Hey, it's not that I'm too worried. This immortal family's life, where can it be the same as us? ”

While everyone was talking, the emperor was already a little tired, so he withdrew first. As soon as the emperor left, the empress ordered everyone to move around freely. Everyone waited for this moment and immediately walked around each other. Such a banquet is a good opportunity for families to socialize, and it is also a good time for each family to choose a daughter-in-law.

Empress Fang also asked someone to invite Ma Shimin to come over and speak.
