Brother Rong tried to figure out the exact intention of His Royal Highness today.
Naturally, Her Royal Highness the Fourth Princess would not come to Yuqing Palace for no reason, and the Crown Princess was not someone ordinary people could see. Even Brother Rong, who also came from the Jia family, had to ask questions through the curtain when he passed by.
What's more, it's the Crown Princess who has a more distinguished status.
Seeing that he was uncomfortable, His Highness the Crown Prince smiled casually and said, "No need to be restrained. In this palace, Brother Rong can treat him as if he were at home."
Anyone who takes bullshit seriously is a naive fool.
Brother Rong respectfully replied: "His Highness treats you so kindly, and I am shocked to hear it. It's just that the situation is really uncomfortable, and I am a reckless and rough man. If word of this spreads, it will not only harm your Majesty, but it will also damage your Highness's reputation."
Today's banquet at Yuqing Palace is against the rules, and Brother Rong has a reason to refuse. Show your cards, stop pretending.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not care about this and said with a smile: "Brother Rong was not like this when he was in the thirteenth uncle's house. We can also call it a family banquet today. Regardless of the past generations of friendship between the royal family and the Jia family, Brother Rong My daughter-in-law is still the goddaughter of Thirteenth Aunt, so we can be considered one of the same family."
Royal friendship? Does the royal family also discuss relatives and reasons?
The former deposed crown prince, Prince Yi Zhong, Prince Yi Yong and others are still members of the royal family, so why don't they talk about relatives.
However, the rules in the world have always been those at the top who have the say. As long as the other party has high power, whatever the other party says will be whatever it is. Brother Rong couldn't refute, let alone chill His Highness the Crown Prince's enthusiasm in person.
He had a stiff smile on his face, but the fourth princess noticed it.
The fourth princess came over and said with a smile: "Although it is a private gathering in the first month, we still have to be careful. The prince brother only wants to get close to his brother-in-law, but he doesn't know that such a move will make him uncomfortable. Why don't you drink here? My sister-in-law and I went next door."
His Highness the Crown Prince agreed without saying anything else. This only made Brother Rong confused. He was drinking at the same table with His Highness the Crown Prince, and he didn't say anything else important. He only chatted a few words and exchanged glasses.
Even when he came out of Yuqing Palace, he still had no explanation.
Is it just that Zhengyue stopped him to have a few drinks? Or should he make a show and tell another prince in the palace that the Jia family has joined the prince's camp?
If this was the purpose, the prince would be too naive.
Just as he was thinking about it, a maid suddenly chased him from behind.
…
Not long after Uncle Rong left the palace, Mrs. Jia led Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang, Mrs. You and Grandma Qin out of the palace. Together they went to Ning Mansion to worship their ancestors, and then went to Jia Mu's courtyard to pay homage.
The parties dispersed.
Uncle Rong in the Ningguo Mansion looked at the pen in his hand in a daze, sitting there for a while without writing anything. It was all Ke Qing's blind idea to give Her Royal Highness the Fourth Princess a book. There were so many suitable stories to copy.
Keqing smiled and said, "What a coincidence. I met the fourth princess on the way to the palace to congratulate the uncle. She told me earlier that she didn't expect to ask for the book from the elder in person."
Uncle Rong put his pen down and hummed: "I won't do this writing anymore, I'm too lazy to spoil her."
"Where are you going, uncle?"
"Go back to your room and sleep. I only slept so much in one night. I'm very sleepy."
Grandma Rong smiled shyly and followed her into the room.
"Why did you come in? Don't you go to the west to accompany the old lady?"
"The old lady is resting, leaving only Aunt Li and Mrs. Xue talking in front of her." Ke Qing squinted and smiled and said, "I am very sleepy today, so I will take a nap during this time."
Are you still very sleepy? The way Uncle Rong looked at Qin Keqing, with the faint smile on his oval face, he clearly still longed for refreshment.
The uncle curled his lips, went into the inner room and went to sleep.
Fortunately, Miss Keqing was also honest and snuggled there like a cat. It can make Uncle Rong feel the warmth without any other movement.
Well, pretty good.
Youyou slept for two hours, and it was already dusk when she woke up. The sky is gray and the nose smells fragrant. Even though there was a light in the room, he couldn't see clearly the person in his arms.
Because the woman's face was facing the other side, only the back of her head was left for him.
But Uncle Rong knew it was Ke Qing.
Every woman is unique and his hand can tell. But Qing hasn't woken up yet, she's like a kitten having a sweet dream, and people can't help but caress and tease her.
"woke up?"
"Wake up for a while." Uncle Rong said with a smile.
"Are you hungry, uncle?"
"I'm hungry." Uncle Rong said truthfully.
"Get up quickly. We haven't finished the luncheon in the palace yet. It's time to call the girls to bring food." Qin Keqing said angrily.
"Let's eat some snacks to fill our stomachs first."
As the saying goes: Take a nap to recharge your batteries, and when you wake up from your dream, you will be able to lift up the sky.
When Grandma Rong heard this, her face became even more charming.
At this moment, the maid outside heard the noise and went to get the food.
When I returned, I saw that the sky was completely dark, with one or two stars streaking across the Milky Way from time to time in the night. In the dark night, there is a red or white light tail.
Like dragons, but also like a huge dragon composed of countless stars.
The ferocious dragon roared into the night sky.
The little stars fall, either lightly or hard. Sometimes one or two stars, sometimes several stars, fly down at the same time, making the silent night sky tremble slightly and making thousands of stars temporarily confused.
They are the beards of the dragon and the tail of the dragon.
The ferocious dragon swept across the night sky, making the night tremble, giving the stars in the sky some turbulence of light and heat, and giving the darkness some flickering explosions.
Wherever he passed, winds and clouds surged in the air, and mountains and rivers shook on the ground.
Accompanied by two whooshing sounds, streaks of white light flew out from the ground. Bang, they bloomed in the air, colorful.
It's fireworks.
Everything was so coincidental, the fireworks exploded under the claws and belly of the dragon in the sky.
As if the whole world was being affected, white lights shot out from every family's garden. They pushed forward with all their strength, lighting up a strip of the sky with joy, as if they had pierced through the darkness.
The sound is endless, which is the most festive scene on New Year's Day. The fireworks bursting in the sky left a lot of white mist, making the night hazy. However, every family is like a competition, trying their best to make the fireworks fly higher and more magnificent.
The final endeavor is the fireworks in Ningguo Mansion.
Boom ~ Boom, a beautiful painting is revealed. Together with the roaring dragon in the sky, some milky white light lingers in front of its big mouth.
The remaining light disappeared, and the darkness seemed to shake a few times.
The quiet and lazy stars returned to their original positions, and the dragons and fireworks disappeared.
When Uncle Rong ate the food, the food was heated again. But he still ate very well and ate a lot, a lot.
The next day, Uncle Rong got up very early and went to the study to make up stories with a smile on his face.
In Ning Rong's mansion, Mrs. Wang, Sister Feng, Ke Qing and others were busy inviting people to have New Year's wine every day. The halls and courtyards over there were filled with opera and wine, and there was an endless stream of relatives and friends. It took seven or eight days to finish. In the morning, the Lantern Festival is approaching, and both Ningrong and Rongfu are decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations.
On the eleventh day, Jia She invited Jia Mu and others, and the old lady went over and took care of him casually for half a day. The next day, Brother Rong invited him again, and the old lady had fun with Ke Qing in Ningguo Mansion for a whole day and a half.
"There is no cure for partiality." Jia She said angrily.
Brother Rong didn't come back, so Jia She asked for trouble and left at night.
In the next few days, the grandparents of the two houses were invited to have New Year's Eve dinner without a break.
On the eve of the 15th, Jia's mother ordered several banquets of wine and a small show in the large flower hall, hung all kinds of beautiful lanterns, and led all the nephews, grandsons, grandsons, daughters-in-law, and other family members of Rongning's second house to have a family banquet.
"Brother Rong, let's go to Yihongyuan in the evening." Baoyu said.
