However, when their eyes met, they unconsciously avoided each other.
Now that the relationship has broken down, there is no point in continuing this tea party.
Therefore, everyone planned to go back to their homes.
Chen Jinghuai first confessed his crime to Queen Min, and only refused to leave beforehand because of family problems. Queen Min seemed to be annoyed by his reckless behavior today, so she did not do much to persuade him to stay, and just let him go.
Just when Jiang Nianjiao and Concubine Yuxian were about to leave, Queen Min suddenly said, "Didn't we agree that we are here to attend the tea party today? Why do you both have to leave?".
After finishing her words, Queen Min just pointed out Jiang Nianjiao's name and said, "Jiaojiao, this tea party is specially held for you."
Hearing Queen Min's words and seeing her deputy's attitude, Jiang Nianjiao naturally felt strange. After all, the scandal between herself and Zhao Yanzhen was flying all over the world, and Zhao Yanzhen went crazy and went to the saint to tell him that he liked her. Although these things were not his own It can be regarded as being shot while lying down, but how can a mother believe that it is her son who is entangled. What's more, he is a good boy like Zhao Yanzhen.
So no matter which one of these things, I'm afraid it's enough for Queen Min to define herself as a vixen.
I'm afraid not many ordinary mothers would like her like this.
When something goes wrong, there must be a monster.
She wanted to refuse, but Queen Min made it so clear. If she refused directly, wouldn't she offend her.
Fortunately, although Concubine Yuxian and Empress Min were clearly on the same side just now, she was not stupid. How could she not understand what Jiang Nianjiao understood.
Therefore, Concubine Yuxian said, "Empress, it's not that Gillian doesn't want to show you face, it's that I'm feeling a little uncomfortable, so please allow us two to go first."
It's a pity that Queen Min could not let them escape so easily.
She listened to Concubine Yu Xian's refusal, and then said worriedly, "Concubine Xian, why do you bother to come here if you are sick? I know you are not feeling well, so naturally I won't blame you."
After finishing her words, she only told Qiu Wan who was beside her, "Qiu Wan, Concubine Xian is not feeling well. Please send Concubine Xian back in person."
Then she just smiled at Concubine Yuxian and said, "Concubine Xian, please go back to recuperate in peace. Jiaojiao, you can rest assured to leave her here with me. When the tea party is over, I will definitely send someone to take Jiaojiao back to Yuxiu Palace in person." .”
She said so directly, and Concubine Yu Xian naturally couldn't find any reason to refuse. However, she couldn't let go of Jiang Nianjiao, so she could only slap herself in the face again. "Since it is the empress's kindness, Jiaojiao naturally cannot refuse. Jiaojiao, thank you for your kindness."
Jiang Nianjiao naturally followed Concubine Yuxian's instructions and thanked her.
When Qiuwan was about to come over and help her leave, she suddenly said, "I find that I feel a little more comfortable now. Since Jiaojiao has to continue to stay here, I will continue to stay here."
Queen Min seemed to just want to keep Jiang Nianjiao by her side, and she did not make things difficult for Concubine Yuxian when she went back on her word.
The tea party was held in the garden behind Fengchen Palace. When Jiang Nianjiao arrived, there were several other female family members sitting at the garden pavilion. One of them, a short and fat figure, seemed to be grabbing a pastry on the stone table and swallowing it. eat.
Seeing Queen Min coming over, her mouth was still full. Her appearance made Queen Min frown, especially when she looked at the mess of pastries on the stone table, she frowned. It's tighter.
"Miaobi, what are you doing?"
However, Concubine Miao didn't seem to understand Queen Min's words at all. She only gave a thumbs up to Concubine Yuxian and said, "Your Majesty, I found that the pastries in Fengchen Palace are getting more and more delicious. It's not like you don't know." What this slave likes most is the pastries in your room."
Although Miao Bin was praising the delicious pastries in Queen Min's room, Queen Min was naturally not happy when she made the tea party she had carefully prepared look like a thief. He said patiently, "Okay, since you like it so much, I'll just ask Qiu Wan to prepare another copy for you before I go back."
After saying this, without a wink from Empress Min, Qiu Wan took the initiative and asked people to remove all the food that Miao Bin had eaten, and then arranged new food.
Jiang Nianjiao was raped because of Empress Min just now.
As for keeping it to herself, she naturally paid attention to it all the time and cared about everything.
She didn't dare to touch even the pastries rearranged by Queen Min.
Although she knew in her heart that as a queen, Queen Min should not be able to do the same stupid tricks as her stepmother, she was still worried.
However, Queen Min didn't seem to have any intention of plotting against her at this time, and compared to talking to Jiang Nianjiao, Queen Min was obviously more interested in chatting with her sisters.
Afterwards, they chatted for a while, and Queen Min suddenly said to the eunuch beside her, "Go and take out those portraits."
After listening to Queen Min's words, the eunuch took the order and left. Everyone was just when Monk Zhang Er was confused.
Empress Min just smiled and said, "In a few days, I will be looking for a bride for Yan'er. There are quite a lot of scrolls sent here. Moreover, I have lived in the palace for a long time, and I don't know much about the people outside the palace. I am also thinking about a few people." They are all reliable people and are familiar with each family's situation. Therefore, I would like to ask you to make a selection for me."
After hearing this, the eldest brother of the Chen family who was sitting below her stood up first and said, "Your Majesty has given orders, so we will naturally do our best. I just don't know what your Majesty's requirements are for selecting the princess for Your Highness?"
Empress Min only said softly, "Of course you have to follow the rules and do your duty, but you can't go towards Qin Muchu. The second most important thing is talent and character."
When she said this, the female relatives didn't know whether it was intentional or not, they just looked at Jiang Nianjiao with their appraising eyes from time to time.
With such obvious manipulation, Jiang Nianjiao naturally knew that Queen Min was trying to squeeze her.
If she was really passionate about Zhao Yanzhen, she would probably feel sad or even give up after hearing these words.
It's a pity that the son can't help his mother, and Queen Min obviously doesn't know Zhao Yanzhen's plan.
Therefore, when those eyes came over her, Jiang Nianjiao didn't react at all.
After the scroll was delivered, Queen Min just asked them to look at each other on the spot.
This kind of gathering between women is already a bit boring, but now they don't even talk anymore.
Jiang Nianjiao became more and more bored.
Empress Min didn't want to, but at this moment she turned her attention to Miao Bi, who had been eating.
Miao Bin was eating enthusiastically. When Queen Min looked towards her, she didn't even notice Queen Min's sight.
It wasn't until Empress Min coughed that the Miao Concubine stood up as if she had been reminded of something.
"Your Majesty, you are the one whom the Third Highness is looking for, why don't you also find a marriage for my fourth son?"
After hearing what Miao Bin said, Queen Min continued, "Miao Bin also wants to find a marriage for her son. Don't worry, Miao Bin. After I finish the affairs of the third child, I will naturally take good care of the fourth child." "
Upon hearing Queen Min's words, Miao Bin immediately shouted loudly, "My dear, I'd rather you take a look at the fourth daughter-in-law. Didn't the Jiang family girl break off her engagement with your nephew? They can't get married anyway, let me see. I really like this girl from the Jiang family, why don’t you, my empress, promise this girl from the Jiang family to my fourth son as your wife?”
Hearing the words of this wonderful concubine, the women who were looking at the portraits also raised their heads in surprise, as if they did not expect that this wonderful concubine would actually say such words.
Queen Min had obviously discussed this with Miao Bin, so she didn't look surprised when she heard this. On the contrary, after hearing Miao Bin's words, she chuckled, "Miao Bin, I can't decide this matter. How can you still You have to ask Miss Jiang."
This Miao Concubine came to ask Jiang Nianjiao without any self-awareness. Seeing her coming, Concubine Yu Xian naturally frowned. Although she knew that Queen Min was hiding a trick, she didn't expect that she would let Miao Concubine get involved.
Miao concubine's son is fat and fat, has no talent or learning, and is not proficient in riding or shooting. Among almost all the princes, this fourth prince is a disgusting existence.
Isn’t it disgusting for Queen Min to do such a thing?
What's more, even if her niece really has something to do with Zhao Yanzhen, it's still unclear who is disturbing whom. If Zhao Yanzhen hadn't gone to tell the emperor that he wanted to marry Jiaojiao from their family. Those rumors were just rumors in the first place.
Thinking of this, even Concubine Yu Xian, who was usually kind, only had a straight face at the moment.
However, I don't know if Miao Bi is thick-skinned, or she really can't see Concubine Yu Xian's attitude.
After hearing Queen Min's words, she ran over and took Jiang Nianjiao's hand.
He said, "Miss Jiang, our Chengyuan's cooking is delicious. If you marry him, he will definitely raise you to be fat and white in the future. How about it? Miss, would you like to consider our Chengyuan?"
Jiang Nianjiao heard them talking about the fourth prince, and just then she remembered the fat man sitting opposite her at the banquet held by Princess Qiyang that day.
Although the little fat man had a naive appearance, he had a good character. He remembered that the other party had gone too far for him that day.
Therefore, when faced with Miaobi's question, she only chuckled, "Your Highness, Fourth Highness, is a man of justice and has a pure and kind temperament. However, Jiaojiao has no intention to talk about marriage now, so for the empress I’m afraid Jiaojiao won’t be able to agree to this request, and besides, when Empress Miaobi asked me for my opinion, shouldn’t she have asked the Fourth Highness what he meant?”
Hearing Jiang Nianjiao's words, the Miao concubine was stunned for a moment, and then she just burst out laughing. Then she pretended to regret and said, "It's a pity that the girl doesn't have this idea, but it's OK if she changes her mind someday." Consider our fourth child."
Jiang Nianjiao only smiled and said yes.
Concubine Yu Xian could see that Queen Min was here to show off her and Jiang Nianjiao's face at the tea party, so she didn't care about her face at this time. She just said with a cold face, "Mother, I have something to do with Jiaojiao." To say the least, I won’t stay here any longer.”
After speaking, she led Jiang Nianjiao out of Fengchen Palace.
