As soon as the Xian Concubine, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law arrived at the gate of Ronghua Palace, a palace maid was waiting there. She said with a smile: "The Empress and the Princess, please go directly to the Crystal Pavilion! The Empress and the Princess are already there."
Concubine Xian and Yao Wanyi boarded the Crystal Pavilion together.
"Sure enough, it's still cooler up here," Concubine Xian said with a smile to everyone present after coming up, "and she feels particularly happy."
"Fortunately, I still have such a place in the palace, otherwise I wouldn't have invited you to a banquet on a hot day." The queen smiled kindly, "Come and sit down quickly. I specifically asked them to put more ice in this pavilion. I know Wanyi is timid."
"It's so cool here!" Yao Wanyi sighed happily and asked after taking a seat, "Father, haven't they arrived yet?"
After the prince's wedding, he could go to court to discuss affairs, so the sixth prince also went to court.
"I think it will be soon," Princess Maoling said, "Your Majesty Hongde, the weather has been good this year, there are few things going on in various places, so the court meeting will naturally end early."
"Sister Xian Fei, I see that you look pretty good, how do you feel these days?" the queen asked Xian Fei with a smile.
"Thank you, Queen, for your concern. I am fine now. The supplements and medicines you sent are all of the highest quality. I have used them with twice the result and half the result." Concubine Xian replied hurriedly.
"That's good," the Queen nodded, "No matter what, it's important to take good care of your body first."
"Speaking of which, the Queen is worried about the affairs of the harem day and night, so she should also take great care of her health." Princess Maoling said, "I see that you seem to have lost your temper these days, which is really heartbreaking."
"Listen, this is definitely the tone of my mother's family." The queen said with a smile, "She is indeed my sister-in-law."
"My uncle often told me that our old lady once dreamed of a phoenix landing on the plane tree in the courtyard of her home, and later she became pregnant with the queen.
At that time, I didn’t dare to tell anyone about this dream, for fear that others would joke about how a fifth-rank official could have a Phoenix life?
But to this day, everyone in the world knows that our daughter of the Yao family is the mother of the country. Otherwise, all this glory and wealth are destined! Princess Maoling said with emotion.
"Yes, the Queen's destiny is supreme and noble." Concubine Xian agreed, "Unlike my destiny, which only has partial seals and no positive seals, being a concubine is already a tribute to my ancestors. It must be because of the Queen’s glory.”
Just as he was talking, Yao Tai and the Sixth Prince also arrived.
The Sixth Prince is a junior, so he naturally has to greet everyone present.
But when I saw Yao Wanyi sitting on the big armchair like a mountain of flesh, with layers of flesh covering her body, I felt sick.
But there were also things that made him happy.
Yao Wanyi has been recovering since her miscarriage in the spring, which gave the Sixth Prince enough reason not to touch her.
She said she had recovered in the past month, but because the weather was too hot, she didn't have the time to think about those inappropriate things.
"You two sit down first, drink a cup of tea, and calm down, and then we can start the banquet." The queen said with a smile, "I originally invited His Majesty, but His Majesty said that when the weather is hot, he will always be there after going to court. It’s good to have a quiet rest, and secondly, I’m afraid that everyone will be restrained by his presence. So we are told to do it ourselves.”
Everyone hurriedly agreed and said yes, and they had already known that the emperor would probably not come.
Then Liang Jing led a group of palace maids and eunuchs to remove the snacks and tea from the table and prepare to serve them.
Yao Wanyi held a handful of green pearl grapes in her hand and asked Liang Jing with a smile while eating: "Eunuch Liang, you are a very smart person. There is something that has confused me for a long time. Why don't you help me think about it."
Liang Jing laughed when he heard it and asked respectfully: "I wonder what the princess is confused about? Please tell me and let everyone know the details together."
Yao Wanyi said: "I have a dog, and it has always been good. He always obeys me. I tell it to sit and it will sit, and if I tell it to lie down, it will lie down."
It is its favorite bone. As long as I stretch out my hand, it will immediately pick it up in front of me.
But things have changed recently. Even though I told it to sit, it still sat down, and even when I told it to lie down, it still lied down, but there was always a bit of reluctance.
When I asked it for bones again, it would only hold small pieces in front of me, but would hide the larger ones. What do you think is the reason for this? "
Liang Jing knew what she meant as soon as he heard it, but he just smiled lightly and said: "A dog is always the most loyal to its owner. Even if the owner kills it, it will not feel any resentment.
If the owner feels that it is disobedient, there must be some misunderstanding. The princess might as well investigate carefully, maybe someone has tampered with it. "
"What Eunuch Liang said is true. I asked someone to check it carefully." Yao Wanyi said with a smile, "It turns out that a woman in my house raised a little bitch. She seduced my dog so much that she would attack her when nothing happened. He hid the big bones and prepared them for the little bitch to eat, so he refused to give them to me as his master."
"Then the princess is not raising a good dog," Liang Jing shook his head regretfully, "Or maybe this dog has never suffered or been tired with you, and is just used to sitting back and enjoying the success.
As far as I know, if a dog has accompanied its owner to fight and fight fiercely, let alone a mere female dog, it will be able to withstand no matter how great the test is. "
"Okay, let's pass on the food quickly." The queen interrupted the conversation between the two of them, "I asked them to cook new dishes today. Let's all try them together."
"We are really enjoying the meal with the Queen." Yao Tai chuckled, "I need a glass of wine to cheer up."
"I've already asked people to prepare it. It's your favorite pear blossom white." The queen naturally knew her brother's preference. "Thirty years of aging wine must be mixed with spring water to drink."
"It's boring for me to drink alone. Let's ask the Sixth Prince to have a drink with me." Yao Tai said, "Today in the court, the Sixth Prince made a clear and logical statement about the deployment of the patrol camp, which is highly appreciated by His Majesty."
"The sixth prince has become more and more outstanding since his wedding, thanks to the guidance and guidance of my uncle." Liang Jing flattered from the side, "Father-in-law, father-in-law, you are as reliable as Mount Tai.
I think it won't be long before the sixth prince's concubine will be happy again. When the time comes, it will really be three generations living under one roof, and it will be extremely harmonious. "
Everyone laughed when they heard this, but the queen couldn't help but feel moved in her heart. She looked up at the people on the table. In terms of closeness and distance, she was actually an outsider.
From the perspective of the Yao Tai couple, their daughter and son-in-law would naturally have kissed their sister.
Half of her ability to sit firmly in the position of queen relied on her brother.
But what if...
The queen couldn't bear to think about it because it was too cruel.
But when she saw Concubine Xian gently wiping Yao Wanyi's hands with a handkerchief, Princess Maoling looked at the Sixth Prince with joy, and the bad feeling in her heart rose uncontrollably.
There is a feeling of standing on the edge of a cliff, only to find that the person behind you is very likely to reach out and push you down.
It made her feel cold all over in the sultry weather in May.
