21 Chiaki (4)

The banquet of the Queen Mother's birthday is a major event in the palace, and it is also a grand event that the powerful families are looking forward to. Emperor Yongqing ascended the throne for a year, and at this time last year, he was still in filial piety, not to mention the Qianqiu banquet, that is, the longevity festival of the emperor's birthday was not held, so this year, the palace was riveting and waiting for this Qianqiu banquet, which was bound to be done well.

Since ascending the throne today, the Queen Mother has lived in the Ciren Palace and does not ask about the world, and even the emperor rarely sees her on weekdays. Because of this, this Qianqiu banquet is even more important in the eyes of the emperor, after all, there are not many opportunities for him to show filial piety in front of his ministers in a year.

The position of the middle palace is vacant, and the palace is now respected by Concubine Zheng, and Emperor Yongqing naturally handed over the matter of the Qianqiu banquet to her. But all banquets, ranking is not allowed to be sloppy, the regent is naturally the head of the ministers, and there is no doubt that he is in the first seat of Zuozun, but where the princess regent sits, it makes Zheng Guifei hesitate.

Dayu's state banquet is divided into men and women, and the state banquet is one left and one right, but the regent princess and prince can be said to be on either side.

Concubine Zheng Guifei's confidant palace maid said: "In order to exempt the princess from returning to the door, the regent argued on the Golden Palace not long ago, and the slave maid felt that it was better for us not to lose the face of the regent. ”

Her confidant grandmother said: "Niangniang is Your Majesty's mother, and the regent is the biggest obstacle to Your Majesty's pro-government, so we naturally have to be of the same heart as Your Majesty, otherwise will we always let Concubine Lin Chun's low-born slut monopolize the holy favor?" ”

Seeing that Concubine Zheng Guifei was moved, Mama Nan added fuel to the fire: "This matter is done by Your Majesty, and Your Majesty will remember Niangniang's good." What about placing the princess regent at the women's table, we also have the law of etiquette as a basis, even if the regent is dissatisfied, what can we do? What's more, the so-called arguments above the Golden Palace are just false rumors, who knows what happened at that time? ”

Concubine Zheng Guifei was moved, and Mama Nan's words that Concubine Lin Chun pressed her head hit her sore spot. She didn't hesitate anymore, and ranked the position of Feng Li in the third seat on the right, and the first two seats were the concubines in the palace.

On the day of the Qianqiu Banquet, Feng Li and Zhou Zhaoning entered the palace in the same car, and Feng Li slept all the way, leaning on a soft pillow with his body crooked. Zhou Zhaoning looked at his head and shook his head, he didn't want to care, but he almost knocked on the wall several times. Whether he sits or not, kowtows and forgets, and no matter if he can slide up the ground.

Zhou Zhaoning secretly helped him several times, but finally couldn't bear it anymore and woke him up.

"Arrived?"

"Not yet." Zhou Zhaoning was not angry, but when he didn't have any kindness when he spoke, Feng Li didn't care at all.

"Then what did you call me for?"

"Now is the time of the Shen, not the time of the child."

Feng Li stretched, shook his head and said, "If you don't sleep in Shenshi, the next unitary time and Xushi will be difficult." This is the first time that the princess regent has gone back to the banquet, who knows what kind of trouble those people will make, I don't recuperate, rely on the prince to block the gun for me? ”

He said it so naturally, which made Zhou Zhaoning a little unhappy, he was the regent princess, why couldn't he block the gun for him? He agreed to marry him, not to humiliate and persecute him.

Wait, what was he thinking? Why did you block the gun for him?

Without waiting for Zhou Zhaoning to think about it, Feng Li saw that his face was not good, and he felt that he should not offend the boss before starting work, so he immediately made amends: "After all, the prince has made great efforts in the matter of congratulatory gifts, and I can't just let the prince work alone, right?" ”

Speaking of this, Zhou Zhaoning's words also changed: "Judging from your congratulatory gift list, there is still a lot of unused power from this king, when will the rest be returned?" ”

The prince laughed. The prince is very helpful, this time I don't need it, there will be next time, the queen mother will be sent every year. ”

"I want to send it every year, and I can come and loot the king's treasury every year, right?"

Feng Li sneered, and coughed lightly: "Husband and wife are one, the prince has won my people, what does it matter to me to put something outside my body?" ”

"I ...... When did this king win your men? ”

"That's how the whole palace sees it. Speaking of which, I suffered a loss, I lost my innocence as a princess, and I humiliated the reputation of the prince, but I didn't get any benefits in this mansion. I don't care about the middle feed in the house......"

"You said you don't want to care."

"The prince's treasury won't let me go to ......"

"You've just looted like a bandit."

"The prince's jade body won't touch me ......"

"Sealed!"

Feng Li immediately made a frightened look and shrank to the side, but his eyes were full of smugness and cunning.

"Look, Lord Wang, it's already very wrong for me to go by myself, you should bring the gold, silver, pearls and jade to my yard by yourself."

Zhou Zhaoning was so confused by his crooked reasoning that he didn't know whether to laugh or not, grabbed his wrist and pulled the person over.

"Okay, then you honor the previous sentence first, and this king will depend on you."

"Which one?"

"This king has won your men."

"Then I did it earlier, didn't I take care of the backyard for the prince? Doing things for the prince, isn't it the prince's person? Feng Li tilted his face and winked at him, smiling triumphantly.

Zhou Zhaoning's palm is his wrist, the touch is smooth but not soft, his bone joints are not thick, but he is not as thin as a woman, and he holds it in his palm just right. He was bewitched by this man's starry eyes, and remembered that day he was dressed as a maid, sitting on his lap and exhaling like an orchid.

Zhou Zhaoning stretched out his other hand and grabbed the person by the waist to his lap.

Feng Li didn't expect him to be so arrogant in the carriage, and his face was full of stunned that he didn't have time to hide.

His expression obviously pleased Zhou Zhaoning, and the man imprisoned him in front of him, pressed the tip of his ear and said, "This should be the case for a person...... Anytime, anywhere, let the king take what he wants. ”

His gaze fell on the ear that was close at hand, and the roots of his teeth itched, and he wanted to bite the glossy pinna, and the canine teeth reddened the place, and he couldn't stand it.

"Master, it's here."

The sound outside the car instantly woke up the two of them, and Feng Li hurriedly got down from Zhou Zhaoning's knees, and his movements were a little unstable. Zhou Zhaoning straightened the hem of his clothes, only glanced at him and strode out of the car first.

Feng Li's waist was still touched by his palm, his ears and face were full of his hot breath, and his face was dyed red when he got out of the car. He really didn't want to blush and be embarrassed, but this body didn't obey the call at all, and it was so red that it was greasy at first glance.

The carriage of the Regent's palace was parked at the palace gate and could not be entered, but there were already palace chariots waiting. Feng Li followed Zhou Zhaoning into the palace for the first time, and only then did he know that the regent actually had the privilege of riding in the palace.

Zhou Zhaoning took him to ride with him, and only then did he arrive at the Huayi Hall where the banquet was held, and the moth that Feng Li said came.

Compared with the ministers, the regent is late, in addition to the queen mother and the emperor, even the harem concubines have arrived. When Zhou Zhaoning and Feng Li arrived at the scene, everyone was watching, and they saw the internal official who led the way step forward and let the two of them sit on the left and right.

Feng Li didn't think much about it, and was about to go with the female official, but was stopped by Zhou Zhaoning.

"Where is the Princess's seat?"

When the regent arrived, all the ministers stood up to greet him, and as soon as he spoke, the room fell silent. The female official faced the regent Weiyi, and became the focus of the audience again, so nervous that her face turned white.

"My lord, the princess's seat is the third seat on the right." As she spoke, she hurriedly added, "The first seat is Concubine Niangniang, and the second seat is Concubine Chunniang." ”

As soon as the female official's words came out, the faces of the ministers were different, and many people immediately remembered the dispute over the return ceremony at the Golden Palace. Who would have thought that the Queen Mother's Qianqiu Banquet, the identity of the regent princess of the seventh son of the first emperor was taken out again.

Seeing the obviously unhappy look of the regent, some people have sighed in their hearts, it seems that even if it is the queen mother's banquet, it will not be calm.

Sure enough, when Zhou Zhaoning heard this, he said: "The first emperor and the prince, placed among the emperor's concubines and the daughters of the family? Wait for the dog's guts! ”

Feng Li looked at him sideways in shock, he didn't expect the regent to be so rebellious and scolded the female officials in the palace for "dog guts". This scolding is obviously not a female official, the banquet is to make the master have a purpose, I don't know which lady in the palace he scolded.

The lady who was scolded by him came immediately. Concubine Zheng didn't want to come out at this time, so she had to step forward, and she couldn't let the regent's anger go straight to the queen mother and the emperor.

"Lord, the people below are careless, thinking that the princess should still sit at the same table with the palace concubine, you have a lot of adults, and forgive me."

Zhou Zhaoning glanced at Concubine Zheng and was noncommittal.

"They are all their own relatives, Wang Ye Haihan. It's just that this seat was lined up earlier, and now it's not easy to move it, and it's a little difficult to add seats to the princess. The prince looked at ......"

"Even so, this king is not embarrassed by the concubine. The princess of this king will sit at the same table with this king. With that, Zhou Zhaoning grabbed Feng Li's wrist and took him to the left.

Concubine Zheng Guifei was already repentant, and she knew that the regent would have a seizure on the spot, and she would never dare to touch his moldy head. If you want to help the emperor deal with the regent's sword, you have to weigh whether you have that weight.

It's okay now, stealing chickens doesn't make it a mess, not only did you not do it, but you also lost face.

In fact, Feng Li had heard of Zhou Zhaoning's refusal to return to the door for him before, but he didn't have any real sense when he heard rumors, after all, he and Zhou Zhaoning were innocent and innocent, and they could be rumored to be a loving couple, so what he said and did in the Golden Palace, how could it be true.

But this time it was different, he was defended by him in person, maintaining his manly dignity. His heart was complicated for a while, it was clear that he was the one who married him back as a princess, but he was the one who maintained his dignity in front of the ministers and at the palace banquet?

What's the matter with this person, can't he be a bad guy to the end?

Feng Li followed Zhou Zhaoning to the first seat on the left, and the palace people had already added a seat, and he sat down. As soon as he sat down and didn't breathe, a palace person sang: "The queen mother has arrived, the emperor has arrived." ”

Everyone stood up and bowed to the throne.

Feng Li quietly looked up at the throne, there were two seats on it, the queen mother of today's birthday sat on the main seat, and the emperor sat in the second seat. The Queen Mother's eyebrows were cold, but her expression was kind. But the emperor had a dark face, looked at them frequently, and caught Feng Li's peeking squarely.

Looking at each other, Emperor Yongqing's face darkened.

Feng Li realized in an instant, how could he forget the most important thing, what is strange about Zhou Zhaoning's repeated attitude towards him, people like the emperor, and his mission is just to make vinegar koji!
