Chapter 222 So, it's okay to set up a person for yourself
As soon as Su Qian looked up, he saw Shen Mingjiao, and when the enemy saw each other, he was naturally very red. Seeing that her complexion was even more ruddy than before she was taken away, sitting beside the handsome and upright Feng Lisheng, she looked more and more bright and dazzling, and she was so angry that her teeth itched.
Shen Mingjiao looked at it with a smile: "Oops! Isn't this the eldest nephew and daughter-in-law? Why don't you know how to say hello when you see the elders? β
Su tilted his head and stroked his lower abdomen shyly, and glanced at the prince for help. sneered in my heart, I really thought that I could let you succeed a second time with the same trick!
The prince received Su Tian's gaze and patted the back of her hand distressedly. Turning his head to Shen Mingjiao, he smiled apologetically:
"Little Auntie, please forgive me, Ah Lean's body is inconvenient for her......"
Shen Mingjiao still smiled: "That's ......"
The prince breathed a sigh of relief, and Su tilted the corners of his lips proudly. But I heard her continue: "But I didn't let her kneel three times and knock nine times, just saluted and called the little imperial aunt!" How? Did she have a broken leg or a rotten mouth? β
Saying this, her tone was still smiling, making people just think she was straightforward.
Su gritted his teeth angrily, but lowered his head with a strong and aggrieved face, without waiting for the other party to start the White Lotus quotations. Shen Mingjiao spoke first:
"I heard that the etiquette of the eldest nephew and daughter-in-law is recognized as excellent in the Great Xia Kingdom, and the imperial sister-in-law, you have such a daughter-in-law, you really have a light on your face!"
No matter what a few people think in their hearts, they all have a smiling face on their faces, and in the eyes of the queen with a simple personality, the relationship between the two is not bad. So she nodded very seriously:
"Well, the strictest upbringing in the palace said that the etiquette and upbringing of the crown princess could not be faulted."
Su Tian: "......"
Facing the gentle and curious gaze of his mother-in-law, Su Tian had to stand up hard, salute Shen Mingjiao in a proper manner, and called "Little Aunt Huang".
No way, who made her the etiquette of the Great Xia Kingdom recognized as perfect?
Shen Mingjiao agreed again and again with a smile on her face, and said two polite sentences, "Oh, the eldest nephew and daughter-in-law don't have to be polite......"
Therefore, it's okay to set up less for yourself, like how good she is, what you want to say.
Several people finally started to eat, as if to win back a game in front of Shen Mingjiao. Under the hint of Su Tian's eyes, the prince frequently served her vegetables.
Shen Mingjiao retracted her gaze speechlessly, she was the prince of a country, how could she be like a tool man in front of Su Tian!
The queen kept adding vegetables to Feng Shuo, and repeatedly told him to eat more.
The prince Su Tian and the others on the opposite side had noticed this child a long time ago, but they never found a chance to ask.
At this time, the prince pointed to Feng Shuo and asked Feng Lisheng: "What is this?" β
Feng Lisheng repeated what he had just said to Emperor Jing and Emperor again.
The prince looked at him in disbelief after hearing this, as if he couldn't accept it. In his heart, the cold-hearted little imperial uncle would actually have a woman outside, it was so long ago!
And Su Tian didn't believe it very much, but he looked at Feng Shuo's blue eyes that were the same as Feng Lisheng's, and that same clear and cold temperament.
Su Tian no longer doubted that five or six years ago, Feng Lisheng was fighting at the border. At that time, as the commander of the Northwest, there must have been many people who gave him beauties......
In other words, Feng Lisheng may not be as unfeminine as he appears!
Thinking of this, she was glad that she had chosen at the same time, and her heart was also open. And looking at Shen Mingjiao again, it was simply full of schadenfreude.
Shen Mingjiao didn't have to think about it, she knew that this woman was determined in her heart, how to make a beauty plan for Her Royal Highness?
In this regard, she just wanted to kindly remind: If you want to seduce Her Royal Highness, instead of sending any beauty, it is better to get a few ancient weapons!
The top few people in the Great Xia Kingdom are not very particular about food when they eat. Jing and the emperor talked about the affairs of the court from time to time.
ββ¦β¦ There is still a month to start winter, there are officials on the fold to ask the temples and Taoist temples to hold a sacrifice to the heavens, this year is also considered to be a good weather, and it has been five years since the last sacrifice to the sky, in order to inspire the people, Erchen feels that this move is feasible. β
I have to say that the prince who is not in love is still okay in political affairs.
Emperor Jing and Emperor nodded with satisfaction: "Well, let the Ministry of Rites select the goddess who is responsible for praying in advance and prepare the sacrifice......
Shen Mingjiao just listened casually and didn't care.
The so-called winter sacrifice is a long-standing custom, and it is impossible to know how long it is, in short, it is to thank God for appreciating his face this year, and pray for continued wind and rain in the coming year.
And if there is anything special, it is probably that there needs to be a woman with both virtue and ability to lead everyone to pray for blessings during the sacrifice, and the earliest legend is a long time ago in a certain year, and the heavens are not beautiful. There was a drought everywhere, and one tribe had almost no harvest for a whole year.
Seeing that the people were panicking, the tribal leader decided to sacrifice to the sky on the day of the beginning of winter in order to calm the people's hearts. In order to make the people in the tribe have a sense of collective participation, it is proposed that the people elect the most industrious, simple and kind girl recognized in the tribe.
As a result, not only the coming year, but also for several consecutive years.
So, this custom continued, and every time the sacrifice would choose a hard-working and kind girl recognized by the people to take the lead in praying for blessings.
Such a woman is called a goddessβa woman who can communicate with God.
With the evolution of the times and the progress of civilization, people gradually no longer pin all their hopes on the gods.
And I don't know when it began, the goddess is no longer spontaneously elected by the people, but by the noble girl of high status, gradually, it has lost its original value, until now, the so-called goddess is just a mascot, no one will care whether she is hardworking and kind, both ability and political integrity.
However, at this time, Su Tian's nasty voice came from his ears: "Husband, if the candidate for the sacrifice of the goddess is undecided, can you give priority to me?" β
Look, how plausible this is.
The prince was obviously a little surprised, and then turned his head to look at her in confusion:
"You have to stand all day for the sacrifice and prayer, and now that you are pregnant, your body is inconvenient."
Su tilted her head and her eyes were resolute: "It's okay, I can hold it." There are still many people in the Great Xia Kingdom who don't have enough to eat, and I just want to do my best to make a modest contribution to them......"
With this firm look and this righteous and awe-inspiring tone, those who don't know still think that she is going to die for the people.
However, when the prince heard this, he looked at Su Tian's gaze, which was full of admiration and distress.
was really impatient to listen, and Shen Mingjiao directly interrupted her tea talk.
"Brother Huang, I want to be the sacrificial goddess this time, I don't know if it's possible?"
Su Tian, who was talking about righteousness, was stunned when he heard this, and his first thought was. This woman just said it so loudly, why?
Emperor Jing and Emperor raised her eyebrows, thinking that she was resentful of Su because of what happened to her, and she was happy to see it, and it was just a false name to sacrifice the goddess left and right.
Anyway, in his eyes, Su Tian was a dead man after giving birth to a child. Still, he routinely asked, "Oh, why?" β
Shen Mingjiao also replied casually: "There is no reason, I just suddenly want to be." β
To put it on hold in the past, she has never been too lazy to participate in this kind of tiring and showy thing. But now? But whenever Su Tian wants, she has to grab it.
Well, how does it feel like she's becoming more and more like a vicious female partner?
