"Let me tell you about entering the palace tomorrow." Mrs. Qiu took her little hand and talked about some of the rules in the palace.
Jiang Nai felt a little sleepy after hearing this.
That Hundred Flowers Banquet sounds like it’s very interesting, but it’s actually just a large blind date venue.
Jiang Nai has received the news. Concubine Qi likes to hold various flower parties, poetry parties, and garden parties in the palace under clever names.
One reason may be because of boredom.
The second is to carefully select a step princess for her son, the emperor's fifth brother, Prince Liang.
Prince Liang has already lost three wives in succession, but girls from good families generally don't want to send them to Prince Liang's palace.
But among them there are also some officials who want to be like the dragon and the phoenix. They rush to get in front of Concubine Qi, hoping that their daughter will join the royal family. Once they fly up the branches, the whole family's chickens and dogs will ascend to the sky.
Qiu frowned and whispered to Jiang Nai, "That Prince Liang is forty-five this year."
Jiang Nai nodded her head, wondering why Qiu was talking so solemnly about Prince Liang to her.
She had known for a long time that the late emperor was a passionate man with many offspring.
Otherwise, there would not have been so many births along the way. By the time Shen Yi and Chen Yun were born, they would already be ranked seventeen or eighteen.
Both of them are similar in age to the sons of several old royal brothers.
At the age of uncle and nephew, the royal family is such a mess.
Mrs. Qiu claps the little girl's hand with hatred, "You, please pay attention to me. I heard your father secretly mentioned that for some reason, Concubine Qi actually wanted to bring ideas to our family.
."
"Although you haven't reached hairpin age yet, it's unlikely that it will be your turn no matter what. But you have to be careful when entering the palace this time, you know."
Jiang Nai opened her eyes wide in surprise, "Who does that old woman like in our family?"
Oh my God, the man who is already forty-five years old and can be their grandfather still wants to eat young grass and her sisters?
Mrs. Qiu stretched out her hand to cover her mouth in a funny and angry way, "You kid, don't talk nonsense when you enter the palace. You are not an old woman, but you still need to pay attention to etiquette when meeting the dowager."
"Your father holds an important position, so many pairs of eyes are staring at him."
Mrs. Qiu sighed, "Sometimes it may not be a good thing to be favored by the emperor."
"Don't worry, mother. I think my father is an old cunning man. His private relationship with His Majesty must be good."
Mrs. Qiu couldn't help but poke her little head with her finger, "You don't know what you are thinking all day long, little head. If your father hears this, he will definitely beat you with a cane."
Jiang Nai curled her lips.
Mrs. Qiu looked at her with a smile, "You don't have to worry too much. You are already engaged. Even if Concubine Qi has her mind set on you, the worst thing is to announce your engagement earlier. Then.
Although Concubine Qi is noble, how can she go beyond His Majesty's approval to marry her?"
Jiang Nai made a sad face and said, "Mother, as for those who are not married, I..."
"Okay, I know your little daughter is very thin-skinned, and her mother won't make fun of you."
"On the day of the Hundred Flowers Banquet, the royal princes and princes should also come. Then pay attention to the prince and prince Yu. My mother has already asked someone to inquire about him. It is said that he is a good child."
"Mother!!"
"Okay, okay, mother, don't say much, don't say much."
