Although it is a family banquet, once it is stained with the royal family, it is more than a banquet.

First, the queen led the concubines and concubines to congratulate, and then the crown prince led the princes and grandsons to toast, and the various ceremonies lasted for more than half an hour, and then it was the real banquet.

Some people have already gone to toast to the emperor and the emperor, and more people below are chatting and drinking with each other.

As the only princess, Baochai also gathered a lot of relatives around her at this moment, although most of them should be called sister-in-law, but these people are very enthusiastic and flattering him.

is also because she has attracted some people here, plus Yuan Chun has become the crown princess, so there are not many people around Chen Zhi, which is in stark contrast to previous years.

Although there has always been a trend of decreasing numbers, today's sharp decline still makes Chen Zhi's mentality unbalanced, causing her to be very unhappy when she looks at Baochai and Yuan Chun.

After thinking for a while, Chen Zhi lined up everyone and came to Baochai, and said with a smile: "Sister Xue...... You and my sister have a drink! ”

Chen Zhi's voice fell, and her own palace maid brought the wine glass, and Chen Zhi took it and handed it to Baochai in person.

"Please!"

"Sixth sister-in-law, please!"

When the two clinked glasses and drank, Chen Zhi said with a smile behind him: "The two mothers have the same heart, not sisters are better than sisters!" ”

Another person said: "That's right, the two mothers help each other, so it's ......."

These two people said these words in public, and of course Baochai understood what he meant, so he opened his mouth and said: "Sixth sister-in-law, let's go and toast the princess for a drink!" ”

"Uh...... That's good! Chen Zhi smiled awkwardly.

When the two left together, Baochai said very sincerely: "The sixth sister-in-law's assistance, my sister will never dare to forget, and I will respect the crown princess...... Let's catch up with the old love! ”

Originally, Chen Zhi was still uncomfortable, but she finally felt a little more comfortable when she heard this, and then she said, "It's also ...... When you ran for election, the crown princess didn't even help in a hurry, and I don't know what she was going to do! ”

"And I've heard ......"

"What did you hear?" Bao Chai asked as he got closer.

"I heard that the princess's younger brother has a lot of disrespectful words about you, and it is said that it has spread in the Jia family!"

Regarding this situation, the Rui Wangfu has actually mastered it for a long time, but it has never had the right opportunity to take advantage of it, and today Chen Zhi said it to his face.

"The Jia family is a big family, and my uncle is a very strict family education, and this matter may be falsely spread for good things......"

"How could it be a fallacy, but I heard someone say that the kid also said that Ling was an ominous person, and the old thirteen was punished to farm!"

Hearing this, even if the Baochai City Mansion was deep enough, a cold glint flashed in her eyes at this moment, but the next moment she returned to normal.

I only heard Baochai say: "This is even more unbelievable, after all, he and I are also sisters and brothers, why did he slander me so much!" ”

Baochai's change was seen by Chen Zhi, and she said regretfully: "Ouch, my sister, you are too honest, you will suffer in this way!" ”

She knew that Baochai had understood the situation, and she knew that this girl would not have a seizure because of this, after all, everyone is a smart person.

And Chen Zhi's purpose is to plant thorns in Baochai's heart and wait for it to be used later.

"What do you say?" Yuan Chun greeted him at this time.

Seeing Baochai and Chen Zhi talking happily will have a very negative impact on Yuan Chun, because it will remind people of many things.

"Nothing...... It's just a joke! Chen Zhi took the initiative to reply.

The three of them are empty and wronged, and at Zhu Yunsheng on the other side, a few girls are eating and watching the excitement.

"Look at ...... Sister Bao became a princess, I don't know how much more attention it takes, it's too tiring to be thoughtful! Xiangyun said frankly.

"Cloud girl...... Since you feel so sorry for Sister Bao, why don't you go and help her! Daiyu covered her mouth and smiled.

"Help her...... How can I help her? ”

"It's not easy, if you follow into the palace, won't you be able to help Sister Shangbao!"

Speaking of this, Daiyu took two steps back and continued, "Have you forgotten...... There is still a lack of one of the side concubines of the Xiangwang Mansion! ”

"You...... You're so bad, I'm going to teach you a lesson! ”

Xiangyun was angry, just because Daiyu's joke was too much, how could the marriage event be said casually.

The two were fighting, but Zhen Qin on the side was very unbalanced, after all, she thought that the side concubine was already in the bag.

"Don't make trouble, I see that the thirteenth sister-in-law can advance and retreat freely, and she is at ease...... That's where you can help! Zhu Yunsheng said angrily.

Hearing this, Zhen Qin immediately echoed: "What the princess said is very true, you better not joke, this is not good!" ”

Who knew that Xiangyun laughed and said: "Sister Qin, I think you are quite suitable!" ”

"Really?"

Zhen Qin was overjoyed, and then she changed her words: "Marriage is a big event, how can it be child's play, Sister Yun, don't talk nonsense!" ”

At this time, Xiangyun laughed, and Daiyu on the side didn't look over, obviously she was about to break the defense and laugh.

In any case, the scene is always happy, but there are also people who are terrified.

For example, Zhu Jingchun and Zhu Jinghao, the two of them mustered up the courage to come to the front of the emperor at this time and toasted the emperor alone.

Normally, the two of them should get out of the place after drinking wine, but at this time, they were still in place, which surprised Zhu Xianming very much.

"Is there anything else you guys do?"

Hearing the inquiry, the two glanced at each other, and saw Zhu Jingchun speak: "Father, the sons have been farming in Shanglin Yuan for two months, and now they also know that the world is difficult, and they understand the benefits of studying!" ”

"For this reason, Erchen has changed his mind, so he ......"

"So what?" Zhu Xianming asked coldly, he had guessed what these two guys were going to say.

"So...... If it's okay for the sons, you can go back to study! Zhu Jinghao spoke out in time to express his purpose.

The two of them learned that Zhu Jinghong would be "released", so they came to ask for grace for themselves, obviously they were also tired of staying in Shanglin Yuan.

"Want to read?" Zhu Xianming asked.

"Yes, I miss it so much!" Zhu Jingchun and the others nodded again and again.

"That's good...... I will fulfill you, and tomorrow I will send a bachelor to Shanglin Yuan to teach you a lesson! ”

Hearing this, the smiles on Zhu Jingchun's faces froze, but how dare they interject at this time.

"You work in the fields during the day, and the bachelors come at noon and evening to give you homework!"

The eunuchs sent to serve in Shanglin Yuan were only responsible for taking care of food, clothing, and daily life, and were strictly ordered not to participate in personal farming, so the two brothers were always busy with farm work.

Originally, they could have rested at noon and night, but after the emperor's arrangement, it was really full of time, so that the two brothers wanted to cry without tears.

Seeing that the two didn't react, Zhu Xianming asked coldly, "Is there anything else?" ”

"I didn't ...... It's okay! At this moment, Zhu Jingchun was laughing more ugly than crying.

"Since it's okay...... Just be grateful! ”

"Son, thank your father!" The two brothers held back tears to pay their respects.

"Let's go down!"

"Yes!"

The two went down the stairs and were stopped by Zhu Jinghong when they returned to their seats.

"I was happy just now, why do you have a bitter face now?" Zhu Jinghong asked casually.

"Thirteenth brother, my father asked us to continue to stay in Lin Yuan, you can come and see us!" Zhu Jingchun pleaded.

He was embarrassed to talk about reading, after all, it was so embarrassing, and it was a joke to say.

"Try your best, you guys are so remodeled...... Oh no, good life on behalf of the father and emperor, this is a rare grace for ordinary people! Zhu Jinghong said slowly.

"Brother Thirteen's teachings should be remembered!" Zhu Jingchun and the others replied.

In the midst of a happy life, time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, the royal family banquet came to an end.

The Emperor Taishang was tired and tired, so he was supported by the emperor and withdrew, and ordered the prince and King Rui to accompany him.

After everyone said goodbye to the two supremes, some people said goodbye to the queen one after another, and soon Zhu Jinghong also led Baochai to the queen.

"Mother...... Where is my son? ”

"Of course, it's back to your palace!" Yang Qingyin said calmly.

"Really let me go back? There is no will for this, but I am afraid of ......"

Seeing that he was hesitating, Yang Qingyin immediately said, "If you are reluctant, you can also go back to Shanglin Yuan!" ”

"Then the son should go back to the palace!"

"The people in your house are already waiting at the palace gate, it's getting late, you should go back early!"

"Yes!"

Zhu Jinghong turned around and was about to leave, but was pulled by Baochai's outstretched hand, and then Baochai said: "If it weren't for the repeated maintenance of the queen mother, how could the sons and daughters get out today, the prince should thank the queen mother!" ”

"Oh...... Yes, yes, thank you, thank you, thank you! Zhu Jinghong made a fuss.

Yang Qingyin nodded with satisfaction, but she was more satisfied with Baochai, so she only heard her say: "Go back quickly!" ”

"Yes!"

After saying goodbye, Zhu Jinghong led Baochai away, and talked to Zhu Yunsheng and the others.

Out of Chonghua Gate, all the way to the direction of Donghua Gate, on the way to meet the brothers, Zhu Jinghong also had to talk nonsense to him.

When I came to Donghua Gate, Deng An, Yu Hai, and Zhang Ping'an were all outside, talking with a group of eunuchs around the carriage.

"The prince is here!"

Hearing the reminder of the little eunuch, Deng An and the others immediately stood up, and then rushed to the palace gate.

"The slave knocks on the prince!"

"Get up!"

Zhu Jinghong didn't want to say much, he walked past Deng An and a few people to the carriage, and Baochai followed closely behind him.

When the two of them got into the carriage, Deng An also immediately beckoned people to prepare to leave, and the guard of honor representing the prince's majesty was in place.

After entering the carriage, Zhu Jinghong sat on the main seat, and Baochai sat on the side, there was still a relatively wide space inside, and the next moment a maid handed over tea.

"Let's go!" Baochai commanded outside.

Dealing with so many people just now really consumed a lot of their energy, so they didn't speak in the carriage.

Traveling east from Donghua Gate, the team left Dong'an Gate, and it no longer belonged to the imperial city, so dozens of guards from Xiangwangfu were waiting here.

When the guards accompanied him to protect, his cousin prince traveled, and the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division also sent hundreds of additional soldiers, scattered in the streets along the way to be responsible for the perimeter of the subordinates.

There is no curfew in the capital, and although there are few pedestrians on the road at night, the protection of errands will never be relaxed.

The trip arrived safely outside the palace, and at this moment hundreds of people had gathered outside the gate, including the eunuchs, maids and guards of the palace.

After more than two months, Zhu Jinghong and his wife returned to the palace, and as long as the people in the palace were able to move, they would definitely come out to greet them.

Ke Qing and Yinglian were also in the crowd, although they were not named, they were in the center of the gate at the moment.

As Zhu Jinghong and the others got out of the car, hundreds of people outside the gate all bowed, and the sound of the mountain was like thunder, which directly alarmed the nearby mansion.

Facing the sound and feeling the invisible, but real status and authority, Zhu Jinghong had a smile on his face.

"Get up, it's such a cold day, thank you for your hard work!"

Although these words were very cliché, when they came out of the mouth of his cousin, they still warmed the hearts of everyone present.

Turning around, Zhu Jinghong looked at Baochai: "Princess, they serve wholeheartedly, they should appreciate something!" ”

"It's natural, the concubine proposes ......"

Before Baochai finished speaking, Zhu Jinghong smiled and said: "You can arrange this matter!" ”

"Yes!"

As soon as the two of them finished speaking, they saw Deng An trotting over and bowed: "Thank you for the reward!" ”

was robbed of the opportunity by this guy, and the rest of the people also followed to worship, and for a while, the noise swept here again.

"Let's go, let's go in, don't disturb other people's dreams at night!"

There are also some noble neighbors on the left and right, Zhu Jinghong feels that he is a quality person, so he will not do anything to disturb the people.

When he entered the mansion with Baochai, Keqing and Yinglian also followed.

The two of them looked at Zhu Jinghong's eyes full of enthusiasm, and if it weren't for Baochai's presence, they would have pounced.

This scene was naturally seen by Zhu Jinghong, so he decided to fight two tonight.

Coming to the Yin'an Hall of the dormitory, the four of them sat down separately.

Drinking hot tea and feeling the comfort of floor heating, Zhu Jinghong felt that this was life.

When he felt good, several women didn't stop talking, mainly because Keqing and the two asked Baochai to answer.

Hearing the miserable life of Shanglin Yuan, Keqing and the others continued to let out shocks, and their worries were beyond words.

"Baochai...... You're tired too, go wash up first! Zhu Jinghong suddenly said.

looked at Keqing and Yinglian, who were like peach blossoms on the left and right, and looked at Zhu Jinghong, who was pretending to be serious, Baochai immediately smiled and said: "The prince said to wash...... Then I'll go wash up! ”

She is really not jealous at all, Zhu Jinghong has been ploughing her land wildly in the past two months, to be honest, she can't stand it anymore, and she can rest in the past few days.

When she got up, Keqing and the others got up: "Congratulations to the princess!" ”

"You're so good with him!" Baochai smiled lightly.

"Yes!"

After Baochai left, Yinglian was the first to come to Zhu Jinghong's side, and when she beat his shoulder, she also said how he lost weight......

Listening to Yinglian's chatter, when Zhu Jinghong grabbed her hand to play, he looked at Keqing who was sitting in place and said, "Keqing...... Have you moved to a new place? ”

Ke Qing replied with great caution: "This ...... The concubine was ordered by the princess to move to Qianyun Zhai! ”

If you want to have a reputation in the palace, it is inevitable to have a good relationship with the princess, but Keqing attaches great importance to this.

I saw Zhu Jinghong get up, come to Keqing and say, "Go and see your new home!" ”

After saying this, he looked back at Yinglian again: "You also go over and have a look!" ”

"Uh-huh!" Yinglian naturally will not refuse.

When leading the two beauties to Qianyun Zhai, another person came at the gate of the palace, but it was Wang Pei'an, the chief historian.

Although it is now the time to "get off work", on such an occasion as Zhu Jinghong's return to the palace, as the head of the palace, Shi should be present no matter what, but Wang Pei'an is absent today.

It's not because he's tall, he still understands this bit of human sophistication, the reason why he didn't show up today is because no one informed him at all.

The news was revealed by the inner court, and Wang Pei'an only knew that Zhu Jinghong was going to return to the house in the past two days, and he didn't expect to come back tonight.

The reason why he came back at this time was when he went to visit his classmates in the Hanlin Academy tonight.

"Your Highness is back?" Wang Pei'an asked the guard at the door.

"Exactly!"

"When did you hear about it?"

"Lord Hui, I found out yesterday afternoon!"

Hearing this, Wang Pei'an's expression turned even colder, and he asked, "Why didn't you hear the people in the house mention it?" ”

"The father-in-law who passed the message said that this matter should not be made public, so we are not allowed to discuss it in private!"

"I see!" Wang Pei'an's expression was grim.

After saying this, Wang Pei'an walked straight into the palace, and he knew that he was being put on the table by the eunuch.

As for the reason, he easily thought that it was because the eunuchs had not been asked to replace the tables and chairs of the Changshi Division two days ago.

All the way to the outside of the Cunxin Palace, Wang Pei'an stood at the door of the main hall and said to the eunuch on duty: "Go and tell Your Highness, just say that the minister Wang Pei'an came to ask for guilt!" ”

Several eunuchs on duty looked at each other, and one of them said, "Lord Wang, it's late at night...... The prince has already slept! ”

"Yes, Lord Wang, let's talk about it tomorrow!"

"Yes...... Disturbing the prince's rest, we can't afford it! ”
