Chapter 493: Another Year of Chinese New Year's Eve
Fortunately, before the time came, it could be regarded as a small year.
Shi Miaoyu was tired, if it was in the past, she would definitely not be like this, but now she feels tired even when she moves her fingers, so she doesn't care about it.
As for Gu Qingchi, he was "full of food and drink", so he was very kind to feed Shi Miaoyu.
It's just that when she was eating, she couldn't help but tease her, and she wanted to get angry several times, but in her eyebrows, she fed the food to her mouth.
As for the bowl of decanting soup......
King Anling said that the princess is the best sobering soup!
After the new year, it is a step closer to saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new.
Shi Miaoyu asked people to decorate the mansion with a new look, and went to Lin Yanran's place to walk around twice, and Chinese New Year's Eve arrived.
This year's Chinese New Year's Eve is much lighter than in previous years.
Probably because of the successive accidents this year, although Liu Guifei still hosted the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, she also chose to be plain and not too extravagant.
In addition, more than half of the ministers who were disposed of this year caused the size of this banquet to be much smaller than last year. It was clearly a small hall, but it was still empty.
I fought each other last year and made good friends, but this year I can't see many of them.
On the contrary, it is the Anling Palace, which is still a neat family.
And it's still a family that hasn't changed.
Without him, it was only because the two side concubines that Shi Miaoyu came to bring today were Jiang Yuyan and Xue Lingyao.
In fact, Gu Qingchi originally didn't let her bring it, in his words, it was: "It's just two decorations, what do you take them for?"
When the prince was still there, Jiang Yuyan was still a little useful. This year, the crown prince died, and Jiang Yuyan lost her last role. At that time, Gu Qingchi was about to let them disappear quietly, but Shi Miaoyu said that if the old man went to the house, maybe the emperor would give him a new person in order to add to the blockage. Rather than this, it is better to keep it for the time being, Gu Qingchi only saved the lives of the two of them.
But he didn't know what people said to Jiang Yuyan, when Shi Miaoyu saw Jiang Yuyan again, she felt like she was more than ten years old.
And the reason why I brought the two of them here recently is because they are all good-looking.
If last year, Shi Miaoyu was not in the limelight, then this year, when everyone looked at her, there was a faint meaning of the stars holding the moon.
One is because Gu Qingchi has seen results in attracting courtiers over the years, and nearly half of these people are Gu Qingchi's people; Gu Qingchi, as the emperor's younger brother and the second son of the first emperor, who can say exactly what step he will develop after the emperor's death?
Since there is still less blood shed in this position, they don't believe that Gu Qingchi can support the prince smoothly.
So when looking at Shi Miaoyu, there is inevitably a sense of betting in it.
For these people, Shi Miaoyu can block it, even if it can't be stopped, as long as there is an impatient look, those women will understand the meaning.
After a while, there were no more eyesores around her.
Lin Yanran was a little funny when she saw her like this, and said softly: "You are neat, just don't cause trouble to the prince." ”
Hearing Lin Yanran's words, Shi Miaoyu immediately put away her previous frivolous appearance, and whispered and smiled: "Mother, don't worry, I'm also dividing people." ”
Don't look at her not getting involved in the court, but she knows the distribution of these courtiers' power well, and knows which people are sincere, which people should be false and wronged, and which people don't need to be ignored.
Lin Yanran didn't understand this, but she also knew that Shi Miaoyu was measured, so she smiled: "It's good that you know." ”
Today's banquet was as usual, except that there were fewer people and the faces changed a little.
Shi Miaoyu was afraid that Lin Yanran would find it boring, so she whispered with her.
Above the main hall, no one could hear their whispers.
"Is your delicate body better?"
I don't know if it's because Lin Yanran is old, Yue Qining's health has not been very good since she was born, and because she is too young, she has to be careful when taking medicine, and in the end, Lin Siyu switched to medicinal food, mixed it in crushed millet porridge, and used it to nourish her.
In the past few days, I have seen some results, but her body is still a little weak.
For this reason, Shi Miaoyu has to go to the house for a trip if he has nothing to do.
Hearing Shi Miaoyu ask about her, Lin Yanran also sighed, added a little sadness to her face, and said: "I had a little fever in the afternoon, your aunt is guarding it, but I was better before leaving, and I don't know what is going on now." ”
This daughter really responded to the name given by Yue Zheng, and she is a delicate girl. From birth to now, there has been something wrong with her body intermittently, and Lin Yanran didn't dare to relax for a moment.
It was better before, but since the winter, I've become more and more squeamish.
Today, someone set off fireworks outside, and Yue Qining was frightened, and he began to have a fever after crying for a while in the afternoon. Lin Yanran has also gained experience these days, and invited Lin Siyu to come over and watch.
Yue Zheng was more anxious than her, knowing that her baby daughter was feverish again, and she didn't even want to go to the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, and in the end it was Lin Yanran who persuaded the husband and wife to come.
It's just that Yue Qiguang is at home, he said that he wanted to guard his sister, and he refused to come when he said anything.
Lin Yanran thought that he was a child, and it was okay to come, so she left him in the house.
Although Lin Siyu is there, thinking about those two children in the end, his heart is not steady for a while.
Hearing Lin Yanran's words, Shi Miaoyu was also a little sad, but when she saw Lin Yanran's expression, she could only comfort her softly: "Mother, don't be too anxious, Jiaojiao is too small now, it will be fine when she is older." Two days ago, the house got a batch of warm and tonic medicinal materials, and I went back and asked people to send it to the house. ”
Lin Yanran nodded in response, in fact, there is no shortage of these in the house, and she also knows that Shi Miaoyu is widening her heart.
Thinking that she had to let Shi Miaoyu coax a child, Lin Yanran felt a little embarrassed, because she said softly: "I know, just raising you and Ping'an, I have never worked so hard." Probably because I'm old now, and I'm a little mentally weak. ”
When there was Shi Miaoyu back then, she also suffered some sins, but when she was young, she only felt that it was all sweet. Now that so many people take care of Yue Qining, Lin Yanran is also a little uncomfortable.
It's probably been pampered in the past two years.
People, you really can't indulge yourself too much.
Shi Miaoyu smiled when she saw this, and was about to say something to Lin Yanran, but she felt that someone was staring at her.
She glanced at the hall without a trace, and instantly found the source of her gaze.
The woman sat under Liu Guifei, her makeup was exquisite, but there was some hostility in her expression.
For this woman, Shi Miaoyu is not a stranger.
After all, when she entered the hall first, Concubine Liu introduced her identity to everyone.
The biological mother of the current prince, the newly promoted concubine Yao. Since her fourth prince was named the crown prince, Concubine Yao's identity has also risen, and at tonight's banquet, she is also the one who is favored by everyone.
It's just that I didn't have a holiday with her, what is this woman staring at herself like this?
Shi Miaoyu couldn't understand it for a while, so she only paid attention to herself, only to find that this woman had been observing herself.
At this feast, she glanced at her side from time to time, her expression full of calculation and disdain.
At first, Shi Miaoyu didn't take it seriously, but later, she also lost her temper, so she simply picked up the wine glass directly, and when this Concubine Yao came over, she toasted her with a glass of wine.
Concubine Yao didn't expect Shi Miaoyu to respond to her.
Originally, she was just secretly looking, but when Shi Miaoyu looked at her defiantly and drank all the wine in the cup, Concubine Yao suddenly became a little flustered.
But after the panic, she calmed down again.
What if you find out, is this Princess Anling courting herself?
Concubine Yao didn't understand, but she didn't bother to understand.
She pinched the wine glass in her hand, and wanted to drink it to the outdone, but saw that Shi Miaoyu no longer looked at herself, as if the previous scene had never happened.
Realizing this fact, Concubine Yao felt more and more uncomfortable.
In fact, tonight, she came to take a look at this Princess Anling.
It's just that after seeing it, I feel that Shi Miaoyu has no other advantages except for being better.
I really don't know how King Anling fell in love with this woman!
Thinking of this, Concubine Yao was a little resentful, and drank the wine in the cup a little depressed, and put the wine glass down heavily.
When the hall was lively, her movement was not noticed, Concubine Yao felt depressed in her heart, mixed with some indescribable sorrows and hidden thoughts, so she simply got up directly, and said with a forced smile: "Sister, the concubine is unwell and wants to go back first." ”
In fact, this is a bit presumptuous, but Liu Guifei has always had a good temperament, and seeing her pale, she nodded and said, "Let's go." ”
This matter is just a small episode, after Concubine Yao left, it didn't take long for the singing and dancing in the hall to start again, and it didn't matter if she came or went.
......
After leaving the hall, Concubine Yao took a deep breath, and then she felt a lot more comfortable.
The palace people behind her hurriedly caught up with her, and said with a little anxiety: "Niangniang, why did you leave early?"
Hearing this, Concubine Yao stopped and snorted coldly: "Otherwise, will the palace stay there to watch them be lively?"
Hearing this, the palace people persuaded bitterly: "Niangniang, even if it is for His Royal Highness the Prince, you should ......"
"How?"
Concubine Yao was in a bad mood, so she directly interrupted her words and sneered: "This palace should befriend those noble ladies of the family, so that they can support the prince of this palace, right?"
When she said this, she always had a sarcastic smile on the corner of her mouth, and said disdainfully: "Do you really not understand anything when you are in this palace? If the crown prince really gets that position, they will be the ones who will be the ones who will be tied up in the future." But if the crown prince can't get his wish, then what's the use of the palace pleasing them tonight?"
Although this is true, but it is always necessary to fight for everything, and if you don't fight, how do you know if those people will help?
The palace man sighed and said softly: "Miss, you just don't think about yourself, you should always think about it, the lord and the lady will never harm you, right?"
The people in that palace have grown up with Concubine Yao since childhood, and now that the fourth prince has been named the crown prince, her identity has also risen, and the Yao family has some ideas, so they taught her by word and deed when she left the palace, so that she could persuade Concubine Yao after she came back.
Concubine Yao heard her words, the expression on her face became more and more bad, she didn't say anything in the end, she just said: "Hongfu, you don't have to say these words anymore, this palace has its own ideas in his heart." ”
