The first forty-five chapters, virtuous and virtuous, what a fart!
The weather was getting hotter and hotter, but rumors began to spread in the palace that the emperor was planning to select a noble family member to be a pure noble concubine, and the emperor's closest family members were naturally King Shou'an and King Chou'an.
Yue Wangshu thought that a valuable county prince would be fine.
On this day, the emperor passed a decree saying that three days later, the emperor would host a family banquet in honor of the clan kings, and the closest clan relatives among them were naturally the two county princes Shou'an and Cui'an.
The titles in the Dayan Dynasty were not as valuable as those in the Ming Dynasty. Even the royal family princes and county princes were not divided into enfeoffments, territories, or hereditary. In other words, the father was a prince, the son was just a county prince, and the grandson was
He is just the Duke. After such a decline, there are only two younger brothers and three nephews of the late emperor. In addition, the two younger brothers of the emperor still have royal titles.
Therefore, the scale of this banquet is not large, and there are separate men and women. It is really the scale of a family banquet.
The domestic and foreign female relatives gathered together in the Shengping Hall. The noble concubine Yu Shi and Yue Wangshu, a pure noble concubine who had not yet been canonized, were at the top, followed by the concubine Rong Fei Xiang and the two old princesses, and then the two noble concubines, a world-class concubine.
The wife merged with the five county princesses of the same generation, and the three princesses followed their respective mothers.
It looks pretty lively.
This banquet was arranged by Concubine Xiang. The dancers from the Jiaofang Division entered the banquet gracefully, accompanied by the music of the piano, which made it look very festive.
As soon as Yue Wangshu, the imperial concubine, sat down, she received congratulations from many wives outside the room. One was to congratulate her on the birth of a child, and the other was to congratulate her on the title of imperial concubine.
Among the princesses, Princess Ping was the eldest, but she did not rely on her superiority at all. She said "empress" to Yue Wangshu with great respect, "The imperial concubine has to take care of the fourth prince, and the banquet singing and dancing are also so carefully and properly arranged.
"
Yue Wangshu was stunned for a moment, and then said: "The banquet is handled by Concubine Xiang."
Princess Ping's kind old face suddenly felt a little embarrassed. Isn't this probably because she flattered the horse's hooves?
Sitting aside, Princess Ding, Ma Shi, looked surprised: "There is no owner in the middle palace, why is it that the imperial concubine is not in charge of the harem?"
Yue Wangshu said with a smile: "The fourth prince is still young, and I haven't recovered yet. Besides, Concubine Xiang has always done her best in taking care of the palace affairs. If it were me, she wouldn't be able to be so thorough."
Concubine Xiang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and the noble concubine also showed some approval.
Princess Ping hurriedly took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "The noble concubine is generous and kind-hearted. It is no wonder that the emperor's harem is so harmonious."
Well, it's quite harmonious.
Since ancient times, harem battles have often emerged one after another. Yan Laoliu is very lucky!
Yue Wangshu said casually: "Firstly, it is because the current harem was taught by the first empress. Secondly, it is also because the emperor is not good at women. There are few concubines in the harem, so naturally there are few right and wrong."
This statement made the emperor and empress praise him, and his speech could be considered to be all-rounded.
The late empress's virtues were praised by the world, no matter how much she praised them, no one would refute them. As for the emperor... no one dared to speak ill of him.
Several princesses present nodded in agreement.
Princess Ping also said quickly: "Yes, the noble concubine is also a virtuous and virtuous person who was personally praised by Queen Xianning back then!"
"I'm not worthy of it." - Stop praising me, who doesn't know that I am the one who loves you so much? What a virtuous and virtuous person!
"The Imperial Concubine is so humble!"
Yue Wangshu: Smile and say nothing.
To be honest, these banquets are really tiring. She has to keep smiling until her face freezes. Especially as a noble concubine, she is really the focus of everyone's attention, and she can't keep her head down to eat.
Although he seemed to be having a great time, Yue Wangshu actually wanted to skip the feast.
Although she couldn't skip work, she still found an excuse to sober up and go outside to get some fresh air.
Today is the sixteenth day, and the moon is very round and bright. The sound of singing and dancing can be heard endlessly in Shengping Hall. The palace lantern illuminates the three-foot-square lotus pond in front of him. The bright moon is reflected in the lotus pond. Yue Wangshu leans on the white marble railing and slowly
He exhaled a breath.
At this moment, someone walked up to her side quietly.
Yue Wangshu held the face reflected in the pool and couldn't help but smile.
Said: "Why did you come out too?"
"The old princess was really enthusiastic. Seeing that I didn't drink, she asked me if I had it!" Princess Yao Manzhi of Cu'an looked depressed, "My aunt didn't come, so I was afraid that I really had it."
Yue Wangshu couldn't help feeling a little sympathetic, so he took her hand and took her pulse carefully, "Well, although the pulse is not obvious, it is close to ten... By the way, your constitution is a bit weak. Look back.
Let me help you take care of yourself."
Yao Manzhi looked pitifully at the gorgeous concubine in front of her: "I won't kill two people, right?!"
Yue Wangshu gave her an angry look: "Don't scare yourself, I'm just a little weak, nothing serious. In this era, people get married and have babies early. You take good care of your baby, and I'll keep your mother and baby safe."
Yao Manzhi breathed a sigh of relief, "Then my life will be left to you."
Yue Wangshu patted Yao Manzhi on the shoulder: "Okay, hurry back to the palace." - A noble concubine or a princess should not leave the table for too long.
However, the two of them had just turned around when they saw Zhang Degui, the imperial eunuch, running over quickly, kneeling and chanting: "Your Majesty, Jin An!"
Yue Wangshu raised his hand: "Get up, but what are the emperor's orders?"
After Zhang Degui stood up, he still maintained a respectful posture: "Back to the imperial concubine, the emperor asked the servant to tell Princess Shou'an that Prince Shou'an was drunk, and the emperor had stayed in the front hall of Wende Hall to rest, and asked Princess Shou'an to
There’s no need to wait, just go home on your own after the banquet is over.”
Yue Wangshu nodded: "I understand, I will tell you later."
Seeing this, Yao Manzhi couldn't help but ask: "Then my... lord, the king is not drunk, right?" Yao Manzhi is really not used to the title of king.
Zhang Degui looked at the rather loud-tongued princess and wondered if she had drunk too much, but he still hurriedly said: "Nine Kings have a good drinking capacity and have never been drunk, but the emperor asked the Nine Kings to escort Prince Shou'an to Wende Palace.
.The banquet will be over later, and I will return home with the princess. Please don’t worry, princess.”
Yao Manzhi said hurriedly: "I can save it, thank you father-in-law."
"If the imperial concubine and the princess have no other instructions, I will go back and resume my life right now."
Yue Wangshu nodded and said, "Remember to remind the emperor to drink less."
"yes!"
Zhang Degui bowed and quickly withdrew.
Yue Wangshu returned to the palace and told Princess Xiao about the drunken prince of Shouan County who stayed overnight at the previous court. However, Madam Xiao looked like she had escaped the disaster, and then quickly praised: "Your Majesty is kind! You are the king.
The blessings of being a concubine."
Thinking of Prince Shou'an's behavior of frequently beating his wives and concubines, it is not difficult to guess that after drinking, this guy will become even more of a toy. Then Xiao's reaction is completely understandable.
With this news, Mrs. Xiao can now drink, eat, and enjoy singing and dancing in peace.
Yue Wangshu couldn't help but secretly thought that Yan Laoliu had done a good thing.
But then I thought about it, even if I helped Xiao tonight, what about the future?
Alas, if the domestic violence man does not die, how can Ms. Xiao be freed?
Yue Wangshu couldn't help but drink another cup of Qiulubai. Li Yue, the eunuch standing behind him, quickly reminded him: "Your Majesty, drink less."
