Chapter 118: Elaborate banquet, the head of the nobles(1/2)
Zhou Yunji glanced at the queen, and there was a faint contempt in her eyebrows: "The Queen is really concerned about the harem. Even though she is ill, she still cares about Yao Guiren's dragon fetus. She is really admirable."
Yin Lingyue pursed her lips and smiled: "The children in this palace are not lucky enough to come to this world for a while. Naturally, I hope that the concubines in the harem can add more princes to His Majesty. Concubine Zhou, you are now ranked as the noble. And
It was also the first concubine in this palace who gave birth to a royal heir for His Majesty. Seeing that the eldest prince was three years old, it was time to add a little prince for His Majesty.”
"I am afraid I don't have such good fortune." Zhou Yunji smiled and brought the candied fruit to the side: "What do the Empress want to use for lunch? I will prepare now."
"No hurry." Yin Lingyue glanced at Mo Li: "You go to Zhangde Palace to see if Your Majesty can come over for lunch."
"No." Mo Li lowered her head and stepped out with a smile. She couldn't understand what the Empress was doing when she mentioned this matter.
Yao Jiaer was just bored, but when she heard the queen say this, she smiled and said, "Your Majesty has to come to accompany her cousin. Although Your Majesty always comes to see her cousin when she is free, it seems that she hasn't had a meal together in her cousin's palace for many days."
This means staying together.
What's the point of making such a casual move?
"Yes." Yin Lingyue suppressed her anger and smiled calmly: "These days, Your Majesty has been bothering about the affairs of the government, and I really don't want to cause trouble. But today, it's lively. If Your Majesty has time, you will come here.
, All of you stay in Yongle Palace for dinner together.”
These words inevitably made Deng Sui a little confused. Finally, there was such a time when he was alone with His Majesty, why did the queen let so many people stay here?
Moreover, she has injuries on her body, so it is not suitable to have a banquet at this time. Wouldn't it be of no purpose to do this?
"Guy Deng, if there is nothing else in your palace, why not stay and have a meal together?" Yin Lingyue was sure that His Majesty would come.
"Thank you for your kindness, Empress." Deng Sui smiled gently and lowered his head.
Yin Lingyue didn't make a sound, but just smiled softly.
Mo Li had already arrived at the emperor's Zhangde Palace at this time. Wuling led her in. She smiled gratefully, and there was a little sweetness between her eyebrows and eyes.
"I will meet your majesty." Mo Li bowed in a regular manner.
Liu Zhao put down the brush in his hand and looked up at her: "Is there anything wrong with the queen?"
"When you say to Your Majesty, the Empress has been much better in the past two days. I would like to ask Your Majesty to move to Yongle Palace for lunch."
"Well." Liu Zhao thought for a while and said, "Go back to the queen, I will go to have lunch at noon."
"No." Mo Li was so happy that she couldn't do it. "I took my leave."
When he was about to go out, Mo Li smiled at Wuling, and was grateful between his eyebrows and eyes.
Wuling just acted without realizing it, and didn't care much.
When people left, Liu Zhaocai asked: "What's the news in the palace?"
"Return to Your Majesty, when you got up early and you discussed politics with your ministers in the court, I heard it. It was Yao Guiren, and Deng Guiren, who went to Yongle Palace to pay tribute. Today, it was Zhou Guiren who served as the queen."
"Yeah." It was almost the same as Liu Zhao's thoughts. Since the queen miscarriage, she has not moved. Until this assassination... it was time to make some noise. "When it's almost time, let me tell you, you can go out first."
"No." Wuling closed the door of the study from outside.
At this time, Liao Zhuobi's carriage stopped outside the gate of Yongle Palace. "I don't know what the big day it is today. They are all here."
"Yes." The neighbor Tanger couldn't help but wonder: "It was clearly the turn of nobleman Zhou to serve the doctor, why did the other two come here so hard? I always feel that something is wrong."
"Yes." Liao Zhuobi also thought so: "The queen has always been like this. If she doesn't do anything, she will be a big battle. We can't take it lightly."
"You are extremely intelligent, but are you afraid that the queen will have any plans?" Tang'er whispered: "We are afraid that she won't do anything."
"You." Liao Zhuobi winked.
Tang'er then cleaned up her face and helped her walk up the jade stairs.
"I pay homage to Concubine Liao."
"It's you." Liao Zhuobi glanced at An Gu: "Why didn't he be a job beside the queen, but ran to the palace gate to hide?"
An Gu said respectfully: "Guru Liao misunderstood that the slave did not come to stay lazy, but the Empress ordered the slave to guard the palace gate. Today, the Empress held a banquet and invited Guiren Deng, Guiren Yao and Guiren Zhou to accompany His Majesty to have lunch.
, He specifically ordered his servant not to enter the palace to disturb him. It was a coincidence that Concubine Liao came, so why not invite him back first."
I have never encountered such a sad nose in Yongle Palace. Just listening makes her angry. Liao Zhuobi frowned: "I heard it right? The Queen Mother's phoenix body held a banquet when she was incompatible.
Have three nobles invited to accompany His Majesty for lunch?"
"The noble man heard it right, and the servant dared not say it wrong. The Queen did give this order." An Gu explained angrily.
Liao Zhuobi stood there and did not move for a long time.
"Neighbor, please." Angu had no choice but to send him off again.
"Yeah, okay." Liao Zhuobi turned around with a tight look, and the disgust in her eyes slowly emerged.
Tanger saw that she was unhappy and had to comfort her: "It was a little cold at this time, Tianer prepared a stew pot for lunch. It was still the most popular beef boiled tofu for noble people."
"Yes." Liao Zhuobi smiled a lot: "She is determined. I can eat her skills with comfort."
After getting on the chariot, Liao Zhuobi muttered: "What's so great? I'll invite me to come tomorrow, and it depends on whether I feel like this."
"Don't be angry, the queen must have some bad idea. Let's just watch from a distance. The mantis stalks the cicada. Is there an oriole behind me?" Tang'er said with a smile.
"That's natural. But don't be idle now. You go to Feng Guiren's Anfu Hall and invite her and Yang Cainu to come to our palace to share lunch. The queen has the queen's plan, so we who are excluded will naturally be excluded.
You can't be idle either."
"No." Tang'er stopped and bowed, then stepped back and went to Anfu Palace.
Liao Zhuobi's heart was blocked, but it had not yet been released at this time. "I want to see what you want to do!"
By this time, there had been three tours of tea in the side hall of Yongle Palace.
The queen had to apply medicine when she was unhappy, so she left Zhou Yunji to serve her.
Deng Sui and Yao Jiaer were taken to the side hall, savoring tea and talking, and quietly waiting for the arrival of noon.
But in fact, they came to Yongle Palace very early. It took a long time to wait, so I was really impatient. Yao Jiaer couldn't help but straighten her body: "Oh, it's so hard to get pregnant, but those who are not pregnant cannot understand it.
.The stomach is heavy and the waist is still sore. It's so uncomfortable."
"Yes. Nothing doesn't work hard to be a mother." Deng Sui replied simply.
Yao Jiaer laughed out loud: "Guru Deng said the same thing as he had given birth to him. How do you know the hard work in it?"
"I haven't had it, but the Fourth Princess has been taking care of me in the palace these days." Deng Sui smiled slightly: "Although I have only been raising the Fourth Princess for a while, I can still feel it."
"For the time being?" Yao Jiaer couldn't help but curl her lips, her eyes full of cunning: "Then Liu has not yet awakened, I'm afraid there will be a lot of danger. If she is not doing this, the people around her will naturally not serve her wholeheartedly.
Soon, your body will become weaker and weaker. No one can tell when it can last. In this case, Your Majesty handed over the Fourth Princess to you, so it would be fine if you gave it to yourself. Although it was a daughter
Yes, but after all, it is also a dragon descendant. If you have made contributions to raising her and growing up, your Majesty will naturally treat you well."
Speaking of this, Yao Jiaer couldn't help but frown: "I'm also wondering, why didn't Your Majesty hand over the Fourth Princess to the Queen that day... It seems that in Your Majesty's heart, he values you more."
"Guru Yao is really good at joking." Deng Sui looked at her with a smile and said with a smile: "The Empress is very busy with harem affairs, so she naturally has no energy to take care of the Fourth Princess. But I am not good at harmonious harem affairs, but I can only do so
Take care of the princess and do what you can.”
"No one can compare to the thoughts of Concubine Deng." Yao Jiaer's eyes showed a little appreciation: "In fact, based on your appearance and background, you may not be able to cross... That one goes. What's more, Your Majesty is the best.
Treating you will get better and better. Why should you belittle yourself?"
"Guy Yao has made many plans for me today." Deng Sui was a little tired of hearing these words.
"It's not just for you, but also for myself." Yao Jiaer didn't hide it: "There was only a sound in the harem, and everyone had to stand by and follow the horse. But from the day you entered the palace, you can only wait for the horse.
, Everything is different. I have no choice, either she or you. Since that is the case, I naturally have to think more about you, and it can be considered as finding a guarantee for myself."
"With the prince being there, why worry about not having any guarantee?" Deng Sui meant that you obviously want to take over the harem, why should you use me as a guise?
"Guru Deng misunderstood me." Yao Jiaer didn't know the profound meaning of this sentence. "When I didn't have this child before, it was understandable that I wanted to compete for favor. After all, it's not ugly to be young. You can't just endure it all your life.
Who doesn’t want His Majesty to take a look at the woman in the palace? But since I have this child, my mind has been different. As long as this child can be born smoothly and grow up safely, it will be worth it. Unfortunately,
People are more valuable than others to know.”
After sighing a long time, Yao Jiaer said helplessly: "I ask myself that I don't have this ability. Since I don't have it, I have to plan for him. In this palace, you are the only one who has the ability to protect me.
The baby grows up.”
"Guy Yao is afraid that the noble man will forget the trouble!" Deng Sui looked at her with a smile.
"What?" Yao Jiaer asked dismissively.
"Have you given the child to Concubine Liang to raise? I forgot about it in a few days?" Deng Sui thought to himself, a child and a family's future would be too greedy, right? Besides, if these people really want to
Is she really willing to give her a child? Is it true that the mother is so expensive that she can’t play with her mother?
"Concubine Liang is just a delaying strategy." Yao Jiaer lowered her head and sighed: "She wants my child to be raised by her side, just hoping that Your Majesty can let go of the past. It also made Your Majesty feel that her aunt, who is not only good at raising her, can only help her.
He can also take care of His Majesty’s children with all his heart.”
Deng Sui couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: "Guru Yao is really clear-headed and thinks everything thoroughly. And if this happens, now in the palace, I'm afraid you are the only one who dares to say it."
"Who else can I tell you? I won't speak this to ordinary people." Yao Jiaer lowered her head, her eyebrows filled with sorrow. "If I hadn't moved out of Concubine Liang that day, some people wouldn't have tolerated me."
The child lives to this time. Of course, when I think of Concubine Liang's kindness, if there is a reward in the future, I will naturally not be vague. But in the harem, there is no more suitable for raising this child for me than you.
The concubine is here.”
Deng Sui looked at her in confusion: "Didn't you also resent me in the past? Are you not afraid that I only want your children and don't want you to live?"
