Chapter 21: No wonder the people in the capital don't like Princess Lu
"Huh?" Emperor Chengde casually motioned to King Lu to continue, his expression was indifferent, and he didn't pay attention at this time.
"This matter was also only known after the son married his step-concubine......"
……
A quarter of an hour later, when the old emperor slowly walked to the prayer hall, his wrinkled and deep-seated face was already full of solemnity, and his loose eyebrows were deep and serious.
"Second brother, tell your step-concubine, don't publicize this matter for the time being, I have my own way to keep Yinyin from being bullied."
Before entering the hall, Emperor Chengde stopped, stopped Mingfu who was about to sing, and told King Lu with a solemn expression.
"Yes, Erchen understands." King Lu obviously had this in mind.
Emperor Chengde saw King Lu's current appearance, and nodded with satisfaction, "That's it, even if you are a fool, you have a stupid fortune, and you married a county girl in the fiefdom casually, but there is still this relationship." Hum! ”
King Lu smiled embarrassedly, at least there was a small tea sound, he didn't have to worry about his strong father forcing him to divorce his wife and marry another.
"Since this child has been raised by you and the princess since he was a child, and he will be raised by your side in the future, even if his father continues to be a string, his stepmother may not be more attentive to her than his aunt."
"Yes."
After explaining, the old emperor signaled to the old eunuch next to him, Gao Chuan, "The emperor has arrived-"
Xiao Chayin had just been shaken awake by his own iris, and he was rubbing his sleepy eyes with his little hands in the arms of Iris Lemon, and he was in a daze, when this sharp and loud singing ceremony suddenly sounded, scaring the little baby into a clever one, and the watery and hazy glass eyes suddenly became clear and bright.
The little baby blinked in confusion with round eyes, lying on Sister Iris's shoulder timidly and softly, looking blankly at the unfamiliar environment around her.
"Don't be afraid, girl, you see that His Royal Highness King Lu and Xiao Shizi are here, let's go to the princess together later." Iris sensed the uneasiness of the little baby in her arms, and gently whispered comfort.
Xiao Jingqing raised his head when he heard Iris's words, and smiled faintly at his little sister, the little boy had a childish face, a pair of eyes had not yet grown edges and corners, but there was a great sense of security in his eyes, and he instantly wrapped the young and timid little sister.
Xiao Chayin soon lost her fear in the unfamiliar environment, revealing half of her little head from Sister Iris's shoulder, her dark eyes were rolling around her bones, and her quirky and curious gaze finally fell on the golden old woman.
This beautiful old woman even had a golden glitter on her head, and the large ruby was embedded in the middle of the gold ornaments, which was particularly luxurious and dazzling.
This is the best looking in the little baby, the young tea sound baby was immediately attracted by the beautiful golden mother-in-law, her clear eyes were shining, staring at the person.
How could the queen not notice this straight gaze? She looked along, and her faint gaze flickered at the moment she saw the sweet and glutinous little Bao'er,
"Your Majesty, where is this little girl, why haven't you heard that King Lu has added a little concubine in recent years?"
Empress Hu, who was dressed in a bright yellow phoenix robe, had just been helped up by Emperor Chengde, so she looked behind him with a chuckle and asked.
Everyone at the palace banquet had just been called up by Emperor Chengde, and when they heard the queen's words, they all looked at the small pink carved milk bag in Iris Lemon's arms.
The baby is curious, a pair of crystal clear big eyes flickering, very cute. When her little head turned around in a daze, the little appearance of the elf was even more unbearable to make many people laugh.
Emperor Cheng De looked back at the cute little baby, his beard was curled, and he unconsciously smiled in his cloudy eyes, "This is the daughter of Princess Lu's sister." ”
When the queen heard Emperor Chengde casually say "Princess Lu", she keenly noticed that when the old emperor mentioned Princess Lu, she had lost her usual dissatisfaction and anger.
The queen's graceful smile paused slightly, but then her smile became brighter and brighter, and she pretended to suddenly tentatively say, "Princess Lu's maiden sister? But the step-concubine that King Lu newly married in the fiefdom? ”
As soon as these words came out, the relaxed and pleasant atmosphere just now froze in an instant, and the huge palace suddenly fell into a silent dead silence.
The old emperor listened to the queen's deliberate emphasis on the words of "step-concubine", and displeasure rose between his eyebrows. He glanced lightly at everyone at the banquet, and sure enough, they all showed more or less contempt.
Princess Lu's background is really not high, and she is a dignified princess, but she is only the daughter of a county order.
The Beijing officials already looked down on the magistrates, and the daughter of the county order became the third most noble princess Lu in the capital, after the queen and the crown princess, so it is no wonder that they did not accept Princess Lu so much.
Emperor Chengde sighed and glanced at King Lu again.
This scene was seen by the queen, her eyebrows relaxed, and her smile was faintly real.
When Emperor Chengde retracted his gaze and looked at Xiao Chayin, he became more and more loving.
He beckoned to Chayin, and in front of everyone, he hugged the baby into his arms again, and did not hide his love for Chayin, "Queen, this child is so cute." ”
