When a family goes out dressed in new clothes, neighbors inevitably ask: "Where are we going this early in the morning?"
Qiao Sanshou said with a smile: "They invite us to dinner, let's go and eat."
"Where are we going to eat?" The neighbor knew that the Dongfang couple's home was often visited by noble people, so they probably went to some noble family to have dinner.
"Go to the palace." Qiao Sanshoutong said Wuji.
So the neighbors were shocked. After discussing with each other, they all thought that this must be because of the Dongfang couple. After all, there were rumors that this person was the tutor for the prince...
In the palace, the queen personally hosted the palace banquet.
In the front, the emperor led the prince to entertain the ministers, and in the back was the empress, leading the concubines, to entertain the wives and daughters of the ministers.
Seeing that the time was approaching, His Majesty the Emperor looked at the Crown Prince Zhao Qi, who was obviously not as calm as before, and couldn't help but tease him: "Qi'er, how about I grant you a marriage today?"
His Royal Highness was instantly alert and replied very respectfully and calmly: "It's all up to my father to make the decision."
"Since you like the girl surnamed Qiao so much, how about I give you the eldest granddaughter of the Changping Marquis Mansion as the crown princess? Anyway, they are all surnamed Qiao, so it's not bad."
His Highness the Crown Prince quickly ran through his mind who the eldest granddaughter of the Changping Marquis Mansion was. However, he had no impression.
On the contrary, Qiao Ancheng, the eldest son of the Changping Marquis Mansion, ran away from home for more than ten years, and Qian'er suddenly came back. I guess it was from his house?
There were many thoughts in his heart, but it didn't show on his face at all. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince responded respectfully: "It's all up to my father to make the decision."
"That won't work! I still feel sorry for you. If you say you don't like it, this matter will be over from now on!" His Majesty the Emperor squinted his eyes at Lao Jiu, covering up the light of calculation.
His Highness the Crown Prince began to make nervous calculations in his heart.
Like? How is that possible?!
I only have that little heartless girl in my heart.
Where would I like to go to this eldest granddaughter of the Qiao family who I have never even met?!
To say you don’t like it…
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince gritted his teeth and said, "My son doesn't like it."
"Hahaha!" His Majesty the Emperor laughed out loud instantly. "Boy, this is what you said, don't regret it!"
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince raised his head in astonishment and looked at his father who was smiling so hard that his molars were visible, and he didn't understand where his smile came from.
Until he saw Qiao Ancheng leading Qiao Chu and others into the palace to salute, saying that Qiao Xiaofu was his eldest daughter...
I'm in trouble...Father, you are so bad! You actually cheated your son!
When His Highness the Crown Prince heard that he was going to summon Qiao Xiaofu and others, he just thought it was because his father was curious and wanted to see what he was like...
In order to fear that they would not have suitable clothes when entering the palace, a complete set of clothes was specially sent to them... Who would have thought that the three little ones were not wearing any at all!
Unexpectedly, Qiao Xiaofu is actually Qiao Ancheng's daughter...
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had a dull face as he watched Qiao Xiaofu, Qiao Chu and others finish their salutes and be led to the harem by the palace maid...
His Majesty the Emperor spoke.
The prince spoke.
Thanks to all the officials.
Then eat.
The prince's seat is sitting next to His Majesty the Emperor.
Looking at his son whose face had dropped since he saw Qiao Xiaofu, His Majesty the Emperor felt inexplicably good: "Qi'er, what's wrong with you? This food doesn't suit your appetite?"
"Father...you lied to me." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince pursed his lips slightly, showing a rare aggrieved look.
His Majesty the Emperor was stunned for a moment, feeling guilty again, and said with a little embarrassment: "You said you didn't like it. Otherwise, I would have granted you a marriage just now?!"
"But you didn't say she was Qiao Xiaofu." His Highness the Crown Prince's lips pursed even higher.
"Then what you mean...are you blaming the emperor?" His Majesty the Emperor's face darkened slightly.
His Highness the Crown Prince looked enlightened and immediately knelt down with a look of shame.
"It's my fault. I forgot my identity for a moment. I should put state affairs first. As long as my father makes the final decision on marriage matters."
His Majesty the Emperor feels even more guilty...
Qiao Erlu is a boy. The emperor of the current dynasty believed that men should not be stronger than women, so the boy could join his father and brother in banquets at the previous court.
So Qiao Erlu was taken along by Qiao Ancheng to gain experience. He watched the courtiers quarrel with each other and joke about some political affairs. At first, he was just curious.
Later, Qiao Erlu heard a minister joking and finalized the tax exemption for a county. It was like opening a door to a new world.
It turns out that one word from an official can determine the life and death of the people in a county!
Qiao Erlu's eyes were straight, and he didn't know what he was thinking. Even the crystal elbow in front of him no longer smelled good...
Ah Qiu had a clever mouth, and many people approached him to inquire about his identity. However, after talking around and finding out that he was just Mr. Dongfang's son-in-law, he immediately made excuses and walked away to talk to others.
After doing this again and again, Ah Qiu was thoughtful...
Compared to the previous dynasty, the harem was much more lively!
Qiao Xiaofu has a clever mouth, speaks eloquently, and has a sweet smile. Many ladies and ladies present have seen her, and now they find out that she is the eldest granddaughter of the Changping Marquis Mansion. They are all very shocked!
Thinking about Tianxiangfang's famous balm and powder, and thinking about Changping Hou's position as commander of the imperial army, almost no one would not want to get close to Qiao Xiaofu.
Qiao Xiaofu also brought many balms and powders as gifts to the Queen and the concubines.
The Empress looked at the boxes of balm and powder that were obviously much larger than the number of people, and smiled deliberately: "Shopkeeper Xiao Qiao, you have sent so many balms and powders, but we don't have so many masters in the harem?"
Qiao Xiaofu grinned: "Empress, you are the mother of the world. If you think these things are useful, you can give them to others. If they are not useful, just tell me and I will improve them next time and bring new methods.
Just give it to you to use..."
The lady and the concubines were all amused by Qiao Xiaofu: Despite her young age, this little girl has an amazing mouth! No wonder she can open an industry like Tianxiangfang, she is really a wonderful person!
Compared with Qiao Xiaofu who is popular because of his sweet mouth and good products, Qiao Sanshou is another kind of popular.
Her voice was soft and cute, her tone was sweet, she smiled at everyone, called her brother and sister, and looked like she needed someone to protect her. She suddenly aroused the maternal nature of several princesses in the palace, and they all took care of them.
Playing with Qiao Sanshou.
The princes were even more outrageous. They all took it as their duty to protect Qiao Sanshou, as if they, as upright men, must protect a weakling like Qiao Sanshou.
So Qiao Sanshou was surrounded by several young princesses and princes. She smiled and praised this and then that, making these princesses and princes feel that she was the first to protect the weak and that she was super useful!
Qiao Chu was more embarrassed: she became famous instantly, which made the ladies and ladies a little afraid of her, and they didn't dare to get close to her.
Qiao Chu didn't care.
I am not a sociable person, so I just sat in a corner drinking tea and eating snacks.
The snacks in this palace taste really good, and the tea is also good...
But after all, she was the eldest daughter of the Changping Marquis who had been left out since she was a child. The Queen was also curious about Qiao Chu, so she called Qiao Chu to come forward and ask questions.
When they learned that Qiao Chu was already married and her husband was still a weakling who had just joined the army, the ladies became even less interested in Qiao Chu.
Only the ladies in Duke Xu's residence knew how powerful Chen Qingshan's kung fu was. They were reminded by their men at home that this was Chen Qingshan's wife, and they were all very enthusiastic about Qiao Chu.
Dongfang Shuyuan followed Qiao Chu closely throughout the whole process, and everyone could feel her lack of confidence and nervousness, but for the sake of Mr. Dongfang, no one made it difficult for her.
After a palace banquet, everyone was happy on the surface and thanked God for his kindness, but on the inside they felt warm and cold...
