It is estimated that when Shen Zheng was reached, there was no news about dinner.
Qi Fujin's face showed disappointment.
It seems that there is no need to skip the banquet in the evening, otherwise we should start sending dinner over now.
Qi Fujin lowered his head and looked at himself: "After riding in the car all day, I have wrinkles. I still wear this at night..."
Shu Shu shook her head: "I don't know, I guess the empress will send someone here..."
After a while, Xianglan indeed brought a palace maid to convey a message: "The eldest princess and her husband-in-law are attending a banquet tonight. The empress said that they can dress up and feel more comfortable..."
Shu Shu and Qi Fujin looked at each other and understood that they could change out of their auspicious clothes and pick up some fine clothes and jewelry to wear.
When women get together, they first compare their clothing and jewelry.
The second step is to compare with your parents’ family, your husband’s family and so on.
Even if we are not familiar with each other, there is nothing we can say about comparing this to her mother's family and husband's family.
Then what everyone pays most attention to is their own dressing.
Xianglan didn't stay. After delivering the message, she went back to resume her duties.
Shu Shu also stood up and said goodbye.
Originally, Qi Fujin invited Shu Shu to live in the main room together.
After all, there are three main rooms, and the east and west rooms can accommodate people.
But Shu Shu still chose the east wing.
There is also Ninth Brother here.
It's not a big deal for a sister-in-law and a brother-in-law to share the same courtyard, but under the same roof, they feel uncomfortable with each other.
Even if it's only for one day.
In the east wing, Brother Jiu had returned. Hengdao immediately sat down with an angry look on his face, showing no intention of getting up and changing clothes.
Seeing Shu Shu come back, Brother Jiu glanced at her legs and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"
"fine!"
Shu Shu did not add fuel to the fire.
It was a squatting salute, not a kneeling gesture. Even if they were not allowed to stand up, it would not hurt them in two or three minutes. It was more of a face issue.
But today the Queen Mother, the Emperor, and Concubine Yi are all in disgrace. Who cares about the three little Fujins?
"What is it? Such arrogance and rudeness, this is the first time I know that Khan Ama has such a good temper? How can he apologize so lightly and let it pass?! When the Queen Mother is disrespectful, you and I will not say anything, but she will roar loudly ? It’s even more disrespectful to treat the empress. The master of the first palace can’t get into her eyes? It’s so wild and disobedient, and there is not even the slightest punishment!”
Brother Jiu said angrily.
Shu Shu pulled him up and changed his clothes: "Why bother with a confused person? I am also confused, right?"
"Then you'll tolerate it like this?"
The ninth elder brother is still difficult to calm down.
"This is Horqin, a close relative for several lifetimes, someone who I have lent support to in the past, even the emperor can't say anything... and the Queen Mother is here..."
Shu Shu softly advised: "You will reap what you sow... Back then, the eldest princess kicked out the dowry people allocated by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Now, she has to accept the arrangement of the emperor who is not worthy of the princess... The rudeness of yesterday is the same as today. In the next twenty years, I am afraid that the children and grandchildren of this branch will not have any dignity in front of the emperor..."
Brother Jiu thought for a while and murmured: "She is probably used to being arrogant, but she is not stupid at all... Every time she returns to the capital, she gives heavy gifts to the prince... This is because she knows that Khan Ama does not want to see him and does not expect him to Khan Ama?!"
Shu Shu didn't answer and remembered a piece of unofficial history.
In other words, this eldest princess is a staunch "anti-Baye Party".
It's not because she supports the legitimate prince or anything else, it's because she hates her concubines and even her nephews.
Her nephew was a member of the "Ba Ye Party", and the eldest princess was an "anti-Ba Ye Party". After deposing the crown prince, she chose to invest in Si Age, who was opposed to the "Ba Ye Party". The result was a great success and she suffered a lot in the Yongzheng Dynasty. Excellent.
Shu Shu felt that with the eldest princess's IQ and arrogance, she would not be able to make such a precise investment.
The biggest reason for her good death is that she lived old and was the only remaining eldest princess in the Yongzheng Dynasty.
Just by virtue of this seniority and age, the royal family showed their favor and showed the emperor's kindness.
Especially after Yongzheng ascended the throne, he was harsh on his brothers and had a sensitive relationship with the clan, so he should be more willing to benevolent to the princess outside.
Brother Jiu just took Shu Shu as his acquiescence and whispered: "What if the prince really supports her then? Isn't she even more contemptuous of others?"
Shu Shu pinched him: "Tomorrow I should make some bitter melon balls for me to eat, just to cure the arrogance..."
Brother Ninth Brother was originally talking hastily. Seeing Shu Shu acting like this, he remembered that this sentence was inappropriate. This "time" was definitely not a good time. He immediately said "bah bah" twice: "I just farted!"
He hopes that Khan Amma will live a long life!
Being the emperor's brother is different from being the emperor's son!
You can tell just by looking at the silence between Prince Bo and Prince Uncle these years.
Honor and favor are all within a thought.
It's getting late.
Shu Shu helped the ninth elder brother change his clothes, watched him go to the opposite wing to find the tenth elder brother, and called Xiaoyu to come in and comb her hair.
She chose the jewelry that the Queen Mother had admired before, an exquisite gold filigree enamel pearl necklace.
Wearing this necklace, her head is not covered with gold hairpins, but only two flowers with filigree pearl stamens.
Along with this necklace, there is also a pair of gold and agate bracelets...
Shu Shu tried it on on her hand. The bracelet looked good on its own, but this damn obsessive-compulsive disorder couldn't stand it.
She put down the bracelet, replaced it with a pearl bracelet, wrapped it around her wrist a few times and put it on.
The beads are round and round. Mrs. Bo bought them for her in the early years and gave them to Shu Shu as a dowry.
Shu Shu thought of the old princess and the old county lord. They both lived to the age of their grandmother.
If Amu had not stayed in Beijing in his early years, but had cared for Meng like other clan daughters, would there have been a good result and a family full of children and grandchildren?
However, it is also possible to become depressed and become ill, to wither away from the Great Wall, and to be buried in a foreign land.
Shu Shu sighed and stopped thinking about it.
Just as she was about to get up and meet Qi Fujin, Brother Jiu came back from outside with a wicked smile on his face: "Where is my gold belt? Quickly dig it out!"
Shu Shu said in surprise: "This... didn't I say that I would only wear it once before? This eldest princess is arrogant, but the prince of Horqin is still respectful..."
"I don't care..."
Brother Ninth raised his chin: "Are their knees more valuable than anyone else? The eldest princess is in such a state that she has no understanding of human nature. It is their fault that they, the consorts and sons, do not know how to advise!"
Shu Shu smiled and went to turn over his belt, with a look of joy on his face, and carefully put it on Brother Nine: "It is said that Horqin is the richest, and it cannot be said that the harvest is more than that of Haraqin..."
The prince of the Karaqin tribe ordered more than a dozen golden belts.
There are more princes in Horqin. Even if the left wing only has half the number, the number of princes is more than twice that of Horqin.
Brother Jiu also thought of this, and the corner of his mouth curled up: "Anyway, tonight I will keep an eye on the eldest princess's sons. Whether you like it or not, you have to make an order for me! I don't believe it anymore. They can be like the eldest princess." Arrogant and rude, don’t take the prince’s brother into consideration!”
Perhaps Shu Shu had been reminding him all day long that he acted with too much scruples. After he was so proud, he hesitated again and asked, "How about before the banquet begins, I would like to go to Khan Ama's place and see Khan Ama." What’s the reaction?”
Shu Shu thought about it carefully and said: "Forget it... I will go out directly. Even if there is anything inappropriate, the eldest princess is rude in front of me. The emperor will be more tolerant... I will definitely get the benefits... Even if someone thinks something is wrong with me and goes to the emperor to tell me this or that, the emperor will protect me... I will go there specially. If the emperor says something is inappropriate, I will have to change him. That is not a loss..."
Brother Jiu nodded in agreement: "You are right, this is exactly what it is! Khan Ama must be holding back anger in his heart, but he can only pretend to be generous..."
Having said this, he looked at Shu Shu and asked curiously: "Are you also holding something bad in your heart?"
Shu Shu hummed softly: "I would like to, but my identity is here, how can I act as freely as I do..."
If the son goes out of line, the best the father can do is give him a lesson.
Her daughter-in-law went out of her way, and Shu Shu didn't dare to think about the consequences.
Wu Fujin helped the maid over and met the two sisters-in-law.
They are juniors, so they should not be late.
Shu Shu heard the movement in the yard and went out to greet them.
Wufu Jin is usually simple and elegant, but now he is wearing a full embroidered gown, wearing embroidered glory, a ruby flower crown on his head, and two gold and gemstones in his hands.
Her eyes fell on Shu Shu, looked at it, and hesitated: "Is it too plain? Do you want to add some jewelry?"
Shu Shu stretched out her arm, revealing the string of beads.
Wu Fujin nodded: "This bead looks good..."
Usually, such large beads are used as earrings or as jewelry. Straight beads like this are rare.
Qi Fujin helped the girl out of the house and placed it on Shu Shu's wrist. He couldn't move his eyes away: "I didn't expect that this plain skewer doesn't match anything. It's quite beautiful... When I get back to Beijing, I'll make an agate skewer." Wear it next year..."
Shu Shu smiled and said: "If you can get good agarwood beads, you can wear them as strings..."
The looming fragrance eliminates the need to wear a sachet.
Qi Fujin shook his head and said, "I like brightly colored ones..."
The three sisters-in-law, chatting and laughing in low voices, followed the little eunuch's lead to the Queen Mother's residence.
The Queen Mother called each one to look at her, including Shu Shu's bracelet, and then nodded: "Okay, okay, your identity as sisters-in-law is here, so you should dress up like this to reflect your noble status..."
As she said that, she looked at Wufujin again, feeling extremely satisfied: "It's good to wear such bright clothes, it looks festive..."
Wu Fujin was wearing a rose-red embroidered flag dress. It might not look tacky to others, but her elegant temperament and fair skin made her look like the person in the painting.
This kind of bright red and green is the aesthetic taste of the Queen Mother and the Fifth Prince.
It is inconsistent with Wufujin's usual style.
The most difficult thing for people is to change themselves.
It is not easy for Wufujin to take this step.
After a while, the imperial concubine also arrived.
The place where the female family held a banquet was in the front hall where the Queen Mother stayed.
The Queen Mother sat on a high seat, and Concubine Yi, Zhang Concubine, two nobles, and three princes, Fujin, sat in sequence on the left side of the Queen Mother.
On the Queen Mother's right hand are the eldest princess, the old princess, the old county lord, and other eldest daughters.
Different from the auspicious clothes in the daytime, everyone changed into gorgeous clothes.
The clothes of the older generation, who have been in Mongolia for a long time, are mainly the long robes and coats, and their jewelry also incorporates the gold jewelry, coral, and beeswax that are popular in Mongolia.
It doesn't look like much on its own, but compared with the exquisitely dressed palace concubine and several young Fujins, it looks like a village spirit.
Others were okay, but they just lamented the rapid changes in fashionable clothes in Beijing.
The eldest princess looked grim. She turned around and followed the nun who was standing there and gave a few instructions in a low voice.
The palace concubine opposite would not take the initiative to talk to her, and the eldest daughters below did not dare to provoke her.
When the Queen Mother saw her, she just pretended not to see her, and followed the old princess talking with a smile, pretending not to see the eldest princess's dark face.
The eldest princess straightened her back, touched the nail polish on her hand, and said to the Queen Mother: "Enie, these nieces and nephews have recognized themselves as new relatives. Shouldn't we give them a greeting gift?"
