Chapter 333: Going to the Banquet
, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the pet farmer little girl! After staying here with the queen for a while, the eldest princess took An Xiu'er to see the current emperor, which was different from An Xiu'er's imagination, the emperor was already a little old, not only that, but his face was also very haggard, and he coughed twice from time to time, and his mental condition was really worrying.
"Zhaoyue, you haven't been here for a long time, why do you have time to come here today?" But what happened yesterday has already reached the ears of the emperor, maybe the emperor has guessed the eldest princess's intention, but it is only because the royal people are good at acting, so he still asked the eldest princess.
"I heard that your father is sick, and Zhaoyue is worried about her father's body, so she came to visit." The eldest princess said.
The emperor smiled when he heard this, and said, "Zhaoyue, you have a heart, what about this girl?" ”
He looked at An Xiu'er, at this moment, he really didn't look like an emperor at all, but casually like an ordinary old grandfather, if it weren't for the dragon robe he was wearing, I'm afraid no one would have been able to imagine that he was the emperor.
"This is my daughter, her name is Xiu'er." The eldest princess bowed down and said, telling the queen the same rhetoric she had made before.
Unlike the queen's exploration and suspicion, the emperor was very easy-going, however, when he swept towards An Xiu'er, there was a hint of fierceness in his smiling gaze, which actually made An Xiu'er feel a little frightened.
Her identity is naturally real, she has no disguise, so she is frank and open, and there is no need to be afraid.
"You want to ask her for a lordship?" The emperor looked at the eldest princess and said.
"Yes, please also ask my father to agree, this child has suffered too much since he was a child outside." The eldest princess said.
"Okay, since you said it in person, I will naturally agree." The emperor glanced at An Xiu'er and asked, "What's your name?" ”
"My original surname was An, I didn't have a big name, and my family called me Xiu'er." An Xiuer replied.
"In that case, then I will give you the title of Anning." The emperor said.
"Thank you for the title from my father." The eldest princess was overjoyed when she heard this, and gently tugged An Xiu'er, and An Xiu'er knelt down and saluted after realizing it.
The emperor smiled at An Xiu'er, with a kind look, the sharp eyes that An Xiu'er had seen before seemed to have never appeared on his face, An Xiu'er also pretended not to be aware of it, anyway, she was also frank and open.
After the emperor asked for the position of county lord here, the eldest princess left with An Xiu'er, and along the way, she had a smile on her face and was very happy.
An Xiu'er saw her smiling so happily, so she smiled too.
The eldest princess took her hand and said: "With the position of the county lord, your status will be higher than that of all the ladies in the capital, they have to salute when they see you, and they don't dare to be presumptuous in front of you, and in the future, your mother will take you to the banquet, and you don't have to worry about anything." ”
"Thank you, Mother." An Xiu'er nodded and smiled, although she was not uncommon to be the county lord, but all of this was the eldest princess's hard work, and she had to appreciate it.
"Say thank you, all this is what I should do, let you suffer for so many years, my mother is really sorry." The eldest princess was still a little reluctant to speak, she was thinking about what else she had to do.
She has been silent for many years, and now she only feels that she has nowhere to go, and when she returns to the eldest princess's mansion, after An Xiu'er goes back to her room to rest, the eldest princess is still thinking about how to make her happy, and even she asked Mama Li on the side to let Mama Li come up with ideas for herself.
Mama Li felt sorry for the eldest princess on the one hand, and on the other hand, she was happy that she was reinvigorated and full of vitality.
After thinking about it, she said: "The little county lord doesn't have any friends in this capital, and he doesn't know anyone, and when he goes outside in the future, he will inevitably be bullied by some people who are not long-sighted, otherwise you will hold a banquet for her?" Introduce her to the celebrities in the capital? ”
"I want to wait for her birthday to hold the banquet, and then it happens to be the day when she confers the title of county lord, which can be regarded as a good thing, but you are right, before that, I want to take her to some banquets, lest these people don't know, they don't have time to prepare gifts for my Xiu'er in advance."
The eldest princess said and said, "You have people write posts and send them to all the daughters of officials in the capital, inviting them to come to Xiu'er's birthday party." ”
"Yes, the daughters of all the officials in the capital, regardless of their positions, have all been issued?" Mama Li asked, generally speaking, the eldest princess has a high status, and these posts are only sent to some royal relatives, as well as the daughters of some high-ranking officials, and the daughters of officials below the third rank are generally not eligible to get them.
"That's right, this time it's going to be sent to everyone, and I'm going to tell them all." The eldest princess said: "There is no need to have any official position, but in this family of these girls, choose a girl who is pleasing to the eye to accompany my family Xiu'er, although the daughters of these high-ranking officials, although they look gentle and demure, but they have high vision, and they are not suitable for serving my family Xiu'er." ”
"You're right." Mama Li nodded, indicating that she had written it down.
The eldest princess nodded, and said to Mama Li: "Whoever has a banquet recently, bring me the post." ”
Although the eldest princess has been living in her mansion all these years and doesn't ask about the world, whenever some ladies and ladies are going to have a banquet, she will still hand her posts, but she won't go, and even over the years, she hasn't even read these posts.
"Okay." It was rare that the eldest princess took the initiative to attend someone else's banquet this time, and Mama Li hurriedly brought those prayer stickers.
In the last month's posts, there is a thick pile, and the eldest princess didn't bother to open them one by one, but just said to Mama Li: "You pick these worship posts, arrange them according to the date, and I'll look at them one by one." ”
"Okay." Mama Li stiffened, and began to let the maid share the post, and after a while, she took a few greeting posts and handed them to the eldest princess, and said, "Princess, this is the post for tomorrow's banquet, can you take a look?" ”
The eldest princess stretched out her hand to take it, she opened it and saw that it was some low-level officials, she didn't even read the content, she just threw it away, and finally took a look, and also chose a post from a county lord in the capital, handed it to Mama Li, and said, "Mama Li, we will go to this banquet tomorrow." ”
"Yes." Mama Li nodded, in this capital, there are many high-ranking officials and nobles, and there is no shortage of county lords, but although they are also noble county lords, there are also differences in rank, like the daughters of some princes, the rank and status are naturally different, the eldest princess is the heart of the queen, and her daughter is naturally valued.
And some ordinary county lords are just relying on the blessings of their ancestors, although they are named county lords, they actually have no status, and they are just higher than the status of some noble girls.
Although the status of the county lord chosen by the eldest princess is not particularly high, it can be regarded as a small status in Beijing, and the eldest princess wants to introduce An Xiu'er to everyone, so she decided to attend this banquet.
"Tomorrow we will go to this banquet, do you think I should go and tell Xiu'er today, or will I tell her tomorrow?" The eldest princess said a word, and before Mama Li could speak, she said again: "Forget it, I'll tell her today, in case she can't sleep when she waits nervously, it will disturb her sleep at that time." ”
"That's what you said." Mama Li nodded, in fact, what she wanted to say was that she shouldn't be nervous about the posture that An Xiu'er put the knife on her neck that day.
Even the princess and princess are not afraid, they dare to take a knife, she will be worried about a small banquet?
However, seeing that the eldest princess had selectively forgotten that paragraph, Mama Li didn't say much, otherwise, she would really not be able to open any pot.
"Then I'll tell her tomorrow that tomorrow you have to remember to remind me to go to the banquet." The eldest princess told Mama Li, Mama Li nodded, she went to change her clothes and freshen up, washed off the lead, and changed into a set of linen clothes before she went to the Buddha hall to worship the Buddha.
No matter when, the eldest princess did not forget to worship the Buddha, especially after finding An Xiu'er, she became more and more pious, she believed that God let her meet An Xiu'er, all thanks to the blessing of the Buddha.
The next day, the genius was slightly bright, An Xiuer woke up, yesterday went to the palace, did not bring Tuan Tuan, last night she slept with Tuan Tuan, at this time, the little guy slept very sweetly in her arms.
In the past, when she was at home, she got up when the sky was slightly bright, and she liked to go around the garden in the morning, but today she saw that Tuan Tuan had not woken up, so she thought about sleeping with him for a while.
Looking at Tuan Tuan with a crutche, the more she looked at her, the softer her heart became, and the things that the eldest princess did for her appeared in her mind, as well as the queen's attitude towards the eldest princess, thinking about it, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
She is a mother-in-law, she can understand the mind of the eldest princess, and she can also understand the queen's mind.
After getting up, there were still palace maids who came to serve her to wash, An Xiu'er was actually not used to other people's service, but at this time, she was not familiar with everything in the eldest princess's mansion, and she remembered to abide by the rules here, so she couldn't help these maids.
After dressing up, the eldest princess sent someone to say that she was going to take her to the banquet today, An Xiu'er actually didn't want to go to these banquets, when she was in the Zhang family, she rarely went to the banquet, at first the Wu family didn't take her to heart and didn't take her, but later, she didn't look down on these banquets, she had limited time, and she didn't want to waste it on this kind of hypocrisy and grievance.
However, the eldest princess was kind, she wanted to introduce her to everyone, and An Xiu'er could only agree.
