Chapter 187: The Wedding Banquet in the East Palace (Second Watch)
When Eighteen Niang sat in the carriage back to the house, her head was still buzzing, and Li **'s sentence: Your Zhenping Palace's change to the prince is the last straw that crushed the East Palace.
It was like a silver needle, piercing her flesh incessantly.
She and Wang Jiu met when they were young. At that time, she was in Fan Yang Shen's house, and she was not favored or likable, and no one took her seriously.
And Wang Jiu is the daughter of the Taiyuan Wang clan, and she is loved by thousands of people.
Eighteen Niang still remembers that the first time she saw Wang Jiu, she was wearing a red pomegranate skirt, wearing two simple buns, her white little face was fleshy, and she was missing a tooth when she smiled.
She said, "You're really useless, they look down on you and insult you, so you just stand stupidly and let them bully?" You are the daughter of the Shen family, this is your family's mountain, if I were you, I would fan it back! ”
Eighteen Niang covered her mouth, gave her a farewell, and walked away. God knows how humiliating it would be for a person who had already become a clan woman to return to the time when he lost his teeth and spoke leakily.
Wang Jiu looked around, and hurriedly covered his mouth.
Since so early, they have been close friends who talk together and leak the wind!
When I returned to the house, I really received a post from the East Palace, and I had a wedding banquet tomorrow to congratulate Lin'er.
Wang Jiu's son, whose name is Zhao Heng, has probably not been able to grow teeth yet. The banquet in the East Palace at this time barely makes sense, Zhao Heng was born not full-term, and the situation has always been good and bad. Donggong was afraid that he would not be able to raise him, so he kept him tightly hidden.
Until a few days ago, the imperial doctor suddenly said that the eldest grandson's health has improved a lot, and his life should be fine. Yi Eighteen Niang just returned to Chang'an to see Wang Jiu, and her complexion was quite good.
The next day, Eighteen Niang went to the East Palace for a banquet with Li Ziqi. At the gate of the palace, I saw Xu Dou, who was alone, and as soon as she saw Eighteen Niang, she immediately came over and held her hand: "You can be regarded as coming." My brother's cowardly didn't even dare to enter the palace gate. ”
Eighteen Niang was a little embarrassed, in the final analysis, Xu Wu's appearance was all because of Shen Qin.
The East Palace does not occupy a large area. plus the crown princess, the side concubine, Liangdi, Liangyuan...... After such a slip of the daughter's dependents, it is simply crowded. It's a guest coming, and it's good to walk around recklessly, in case of a collision, it will be ugly.
Xu Dou looked around and said softly: "The world is really cold, when the prince married Jiuniang, the East Palace was lively." Now that there is a wedding banquet for the eldest grandson, many people do not come. Especially the Wang family, only Wang Liulang came. I waited at the door for a long time before I waited for you. ”
There's no way around it. Seeing that Eighteen Niang and Xu Dou looked over, Shen Sixteen said goodbye, left Wang Liu's side, and went to talk to the other ladies.
Xu Dou shook his head boringly, "You Shen family's little lady, except for you, the others are really funny, and those eyes are going to grow to the top of their heads." ”
Eighteen Niang couldn't answer, so she had to say goodbye to Li Ziqi and pulled her to see Wang Jiu.
Wang Jiu was sitting in the middle of the room at the moment with a tambourine, teasing Zhao Heng. Seeing that Eighteen Niang and Xu Dou were coming, he beckoned to them, "Come and see my son." When he was born, he looked like a kitten, but now he looks like a white-faced steamed bun. ”
Eighteen Niang and Xu Dou took a closer look, the child was indeed white and tender, looking around with big eyes. Xu saw the swaying of the eighteenth mother's head, stretched out his little hand, and called out.
Wang Jiu looked up and saw that there were three small fish falling on Eighteen Niang's steps, and he couldn't help laughing, "That is, you wear everything on your head." Ah Dou, you don't know, when he was eighteen young, he loved beauty very much, and he didn't even let go of the leaves that fell from the tree, so he had to put them on his head. ”
Eighteen Niang took down the fish, held it in her hand, and teased Zhao Heng, the child giggled, and saliva flowed out.
"Why didn't Jiu Niang wear red today, but blue?" There is a reason why Wang Jiu likes red and doesn't like blue. When she was young, as long as she wore blue, she was prone to bad luck, and after trying so many times, she was really evil, and after that, she would not wear blue unless it was a last resort.
Wang Jiu was stunned for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "I was originally wearing red, but when I asked my aunt to say goodbye in the morning, I found that I had hit it." So she was rewarded with a new set of clothes. ”
Eighteen Niang was a little angry, others didn't know, Wang Guifei was Wang Jiu's aunt, could she still not know? This is deliberately trying to slap her.
"Jiu Niang, go change your shirt, I'll look at Ah Heng for you."
Wang Jiu hesitated for a moment and shook his head, "Where is it really so evil, there are more people at this time, I am the master's family, if I am not there, it is really inappropriate." ”
While talking, I saw ladies coming in twos and threes, and for a while, Eighteen Niang couldn't find a gap to talk to Wang Jiu.
At this moment, Mrs. Cheng of the Lu Guogong Mansion came, Xu Dou's face turned red, and she said to Eighteen Niang: "I'll come when I go." ”
"Go and please your mother-in-law, and I'll come and rescue you later."
Xu Dou glanced at her with disgust and walked over quickly.
Seeing that no one was paying attention, Eighteen Niang beckoned Banxia over, and asked in a low voice, "Whose idea is this wedding banquet?" Why don't you wait until your first birthday? ”
Banxia suddenly became nervous when she heard this, "But what's the problem?" It was mentioned by the crown of the void woman. It is said that holding a wedding banquet can make the little prince get the blessings of nobles. His Majesty does not come to the East Palace often, and he has never come to see the little prince so far. If he comes to hug him today, maybe the life in the East Palace will be better. ”
It's a clear female crown again!
There is really a big problem in this, but now that this banquet has been held, the arrow is ready to fly, and there is no way to retreat.
"Tell the crown princess to be careful, there is probably something wrong with this female crown. Now that they are digging out the mistakes of the East Palace, why are you still so high-profile. Your Majesty is still here, the prince is still the prince, why did you call out a little prince? ”
Banxia figured out the pit after thinking about it, and his face turned pale, "It's also called like this by the Qingxu Female Guan, saying that the little prince, saying that Da Lang was born by caesarean section, and he was angry, and he wanted to use the name of the little prince to press ......"
Eighteen Niang's heart was even more chuckled, and she had an extremely ominous premonition.
"You go to the palace of the crown princess and search secretly, but what dirty things are hidden? Or is there something out of bounds? Or some messy ghost drawing elixir or something, anything suspicious, quickly dealt with. ”
Banxia nodded, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and went down quietly.
Eighteen Niang looked at Xu Dou over there who had stretched his neck to look for her, and walked over with a smile, "Madame is fine." Last time, I haven't thanked Madame for her great kindness. ”
Mrs. Cheng smiled heartily and pinched Xu Dou's arm, "Hurry up and take Dou girl away, I see through her eyes." ”
Xu Dou's face flushed, "Auntie ......"
"Okay, okay, what are you like, I don't know yet? Stay with Eighteen Niang. This wedding feast is full of people's mouths, so don't go around. ”
