Guogong Mansion Line 2
If it weren't for the queen's name, I'm afraid that a hundred Zhengguo Gong would look down on this unknown princess, Chu and Zhengguo Gong have never had any friendship, and so is King Qi, Zhengguo Gong has always been very snobbish, and he will only get by on the face, and he won't give her such a big face at all.
The eldest son of Zhengguo Gong politely complimented: "Niangniang is willing to appreciate my son's birthday banquet, and my son will be able to live a long life." ”
She chuckled lightly and said calmly: "Ling Gongzi is blessed to live a long life, the queen mother is sick, if you are not afraid of bringing bad luck to the little son, but you have to come in person for everything." ”
Zhengguo Gong looked lonely, bowed his head and arched his hand in the direction of the palace: "The queen's mother is very gracious, I hope that the princess will take the words for the old man, everything is fine in the house, Lao Niangniang is worried, and I hope to take care of my body." ”
Zhengguo Gong knows that he has fallen out of favor in the saint now, and this is the reason why the queen does not come, and now he can only find a way to ask for the trust of the saint again.
The three of them said a few more polite words, and Zhengguo Gong led Chu Yunjing into the inner courtyard, which was surrounded by noble women inside and out, and when they saw her coming, they all saluted her.
It has long been spread in Beijing, and the queen has appointed Princess Qi to come to the Zhengguo Mansion to congratulate her, and no one dares to slack off. She has never participated in any banquets of princely families, and has always been the talk of the ladies in Beijing, saying that she is too young to come out to meet people and so on, half of these noblewomen came to see her, and they were all curious about what kind of person this Princess Qi was, whether she didn't dare to go out to meet people as rumored, and she was going to make jokes again today.
She also knows that these honors are given by the queen, so she must show the aura that matches them. This battle is to silence those who watch the excitement, and from now on the rumors are all about how good she is.
As soon as she stepped into the inner courtyard, she was standing upright on the corridor, the aura exuded around her body, as if an immortal descended from the sky here, she had a faint smile on her face, and her hands were opened to both sides in the shape of orchids, and she supported the people who saluted: "Everyone, please get up quickly, today the palace is here to give the full moon gift to the grandson of the prince of Zhengguo on behalf of the queen mother." ”
Then Aunt An opened the congratulatory gift fold and raised her voice and read it one by one, and the maid holding the gift plate behind her sent it to the subordinates of the Zhengguo Mansion, who had already arranged to wait for the reward.
"The queen's reward: a long-life lock of the Ruyi gold collar, a set of Fulushou golden bowls and spoons, a pair of auspicious jade Ruyi, a pair of Ruyi gold bracelets, a pair of Ruyi gold anklets, a pair of jade Pixiu pendants, a set of four treasures of the gold and jade study, a set of auspicious Ruyi sword, a set of Baifu gold and jade bracelets......"
There were more than twenty attendants, and the crowd had already given way for the maids to walk, and everyone was surprised to see the reward, which was very rare. After that, Chu Yunjing's gift was also sent in.
Zhengguo Gong and his wife were full of smiles on their faces, and after the reward was delivered, several people knelt down to thank them: "The old man and his wife, the eldest son and his relatives thank the queen for their great kindness, and wish the emperor and the queen a long life!" ”
Such a reward gave Zhengguo Gong enough face, and it was also a comfort to him that he was snubbed some time ago, this time I am afraid that those rumors that are not good for him will be self-defeating, and Zhengguo Gong is naturally grateful to Dade.
She pressed down and helped the Duke and Mrs. Zhengguo up: "Lord Guogong, please get up quickly, your heart will be brought to the father and queen mother." There are a lot of customers today, so our family doesn't need to deliberately greet us, just go and get busy. ”
Jeongguk ordered the people to place the rewards on the platform that had been prepared long ago, and to guard the subordinates around them, so as to show respect for the saints and their own status. He explained something to his wife, and went to the front hall to greet the male guests, who watched these rewards and went in, and when Zhengguo Gong came out, they all changed their faces.
Chu Yunjing refused the guidance of the Duchess of Zhengguo and asked the Duchess of Zhengguo to receive other guests.
She walked into the crowd, the flowers were blooming, she still shone in the crowd, and now the eyes of these ladies were full of admiration.
In the pavilion in front of her, Princess Huai Ning Ruoshui was sitting there angrily, surrounded by some young women and nobles, Chu Yunjing saw her from a distance, and should go to salute her according to the rules.
Huai Wangfu has always been close to the Zhengguo Mansion, Ning Ruoshui has already come, she also participated in today's banquet, these noble ladies did not treat her to Chu Yunjing in general, she was naturally not angry, the queen should have handed over this reward to her, but somehow it was given to Chu Yunjing, who had been hiding in the mansion, and the concubines were most afraid that their mother-in-law would be biased, not to mention the princesses who were golden and jade, she looked coldly at everything that happened just now from a distance, and the limelight was exhausted by Chu Yunjing, but she was snubbed in this pavilion, This made Ning Ruoshui, who has always held the moon with stars, difficult to accept, and his heart was on fire.
Seeing that Ning Ruoshui's face was not good, the young ladies around her also stared at Chu Yunjing with resentment. These noble ladies all grew up with Ning Ruoshui, she was a noble girl raised in Kyoto since she was a child, and naturally she was friends with other noble girls, Chu Yunjing came to this kind of place It can be said that she is not familiar with life.
These noble girls are also well married and have become noblewomen of the minister's family, but no one is as good as Ning Ruoshui, and they have become the princess of Huai, one by one, and there are many of them who have married the two daughters of Zhengguogong.
The eldest daughter of Zhengguo Gong in purple clothes on the left said: "Hmph, it's just a wild girl who has been raised in Yongzhou for more than ten years, and she really thinks she is a phoenix when she inserts chicken feathers." ”
"She has never participated in this kind of banquet, it has long been rumored that she is a family sparrow, she only dares to fly in her Qi Wang's mansion, and she will be scared to death when she goes out, why did she fly out today?" Facing Ning Ruoshui, a woman dressed in green clothes, she was the daughter of Shaoqing of Honglu Temple and the daughter-in-law of Shangshu of the Criminal Department.
"She also deserves to stand for her aunt? It must have been something said in front of my aunt that I stole the limelight from my sister-in-law, my aunt has always been kind-hearted, and she can't stand the gossip of people with a heart. The woman in the ink long-sleeved shirt on the right side spoke, this is the second daughter of Jeongkook.
"There is a stupid princess in front of you, and there is a princess Qi with a different mind in the back, what kind of demons and monsters are I all these concubines?" Ning Ruoshui's index finger rubbed against the teacup, and the tone was yin and yang.
Ning Ruoshui is wearing a very luxurious dress today, wearing a goose yellow light cloud yarn, embroidered with a large peony, the peony is only for the royal family to embroider, she always likes to wear embroidered peony patterns when attending big occasions, highlighting her status. The hairpin ring on her head is also a complete set, from the grate, the flower hairpin, the finch step shake to the collar on the neck are all gold-inlaid agate, which fully shows her identity.
The second daughter of Zhengguo Gong just belittled her to flatter Ning Ruoshui: "Sister-in-law is the daughter-in-law of the queen of the Middle Palace, what kind of door, they are not worthy of carrying shoes for their sister-in-law!" ”
"Who knows the noble ladies in Kyoto, do you really think that if you are a princess, others have to give her face, today let us frustrate her prestige, and let her know that there is no part of her prestige in Kyoto!" A woman in a red dress walked in from behind, graceful and luxurious, with a proud face, raising her voice, not afraid of being heard.
This woman is the second daughter of Du Zhongshuling, the niece of Concubine Du Shu, and the wife of the deputy general of the forbidden army, and she is also in collusion with Ning Ruoshui. This woman's enmity with Chu Yunjing should start from her unspecified marriage with King Qi, and she should hate Chu Yunjing even more.
At this time, Chu Yunjing, who didn't know why, walked over, the woman's intuition, she felt that this group of women was hostile to her, and quietly pretended to be cordial and greeted Ning Ruoshui: "The imperial sister-in-law is fine, the concubine has not seen the imperial sister-in-law for a long time." ”
According to the rules, peers should exchange equal salutes, and after she said hello to Ning Ruoshui, Ning Ruoshui still sat motionless, staring at her with a resentful face, determined to lose her face.
Without waiting for Ning Ruoshui to speak, Du Shi walked over with a swaying first, and said with a mocking expression: "Yo! Isn't this Princess Qi Niangniang, the concubine has seen Niangniang, if Niangniang doesn't come today, if you meet on the street, the concubine doesn't know who you are? ”
She naturally didn't know who this woman with a gun and a stick was, and her heart was already extremely cold at the moment.
It's not that she doesn't know the rumors outside and wants to take this opportunity to stand up, and she needs these people to say something excessive before she can get out.
pulled out a fake smile: "I really don't know who you are, why don't you report your family name and let this palace know you?" ”
Du Shi raised his face and said proudly: "The concubine's aunt is Concubine Du Shu, you know who the concubine is this time, and the sisters present are introduced to the mother without the concubine, so that the mother will not be blind." ”
After Du Shi finished speaking, several young women laughed, all of them were still complacent, but they didn't know that a catastrophe was coming.
It's Du Shi again, Du's daughter is really ghostly, embarrassing her openly and secretly, and really doesn't give her any face? Concubine Du Shufei didn't deal with the queen in the palace, and when she went outside, her niece actually wore the same pants as Ning Ruoshui, which was really interesting. One of Du's daughters, Du Shufei can't move, Du's daughter can't move?
The second daughter of Zhengguo Gong should be harmonious: "Niangniang is afraid that she has been in the cage for a long time, what day is it?" Do you remember? ”
"Pickled and obscure, you have put the score from the countryside in my country's mansion?" Jeongkook's eldest daughter responded.
"Presumptuous!" Mama Hui scolded angrily.
As a female official in the palace, Hui Mama naturally didn't know that these official women could also speak out and dare to disrespect the royal family, and Hui Mama must not spare them, but a few people didn't know who the old lady who was following Chu Yunjing was.
The ladies in the audience were silent, their eyes were full of excitement, and some of them made eyes at these people, although Chu Yunjing had no real power, but after all, she was the princess, and she still came at the queen's behest, who dared to offend like this. Some people also think that Chu Yunjing did not dare to attack in public, and he would definitely be deflated this time.
Ning Ruoshui was silent, she was very proud of Chu Yunjing's face at this moment, with a sneer on her face.
