Three days ago, Prince Yingchuan was beaten so hard by Xu Jing that his face was bruised. It would take him at least a month or two before he could see anyone.
The Crown Princess of Yingchuan was angry, and naturally she didn't look good when she saw Zhao Xiyan. Furthermore, even though Zhao Xiyan deliberately "dressed up", she could not hide her natural beauty. The Crown Princess of Yingchuan relied on her beauty, and today
As soon as they met, she was compared to Zhao Xiyan, which made her feel increasingly unhappy.
Zhao Xiyan looked as if he hadn't seen him.
The neglected Princess Yingchuan sneered again, the volume deliberately louder.
Zhao Xiyan glanced at her and was about to speak when Muzhi beside her opened her mouth: "The Crown Princess has some discomfort in her throat?"
Princess Yingchuan: "..."
Mushi Zi is Empress Su's confidant. Wherever she goes, everyone calls her Aunt Mushi Zi. She, the Crown Princess of Yingchuan, cannot be offended.
The Crown Princess of Yingchuan closed her mouth angrily.
Zhao Xiyan smiled at Muzhi to show her gratitude.
Muzhi's expression was peaceful, with no hint of pride. She called a palace attendant over and asked the palace attendant to go in and report. After a while, the palace attendant turned around and said, "The Queen, please invite the two concubines and Miss Zhao to go in together."
Princess Yingchuan is the oldest, so she naturally takes the lead, followed closely by Princess Pengcheng. Finally, Zhao Xiyan comes.
Zhao Xiyan made up her mind not to be in the spotlight today and followed her into the main hall unhurriedly.
Zhao Xiyan bowed her head slightly and saluted: "Zhao Xiyan, I have met the Queen."
A soft female voice sounded: "I'll be fine without any ceremony."
"Thank you, Queen."
After Zhao Xiyan thanked her, she stood up. While she was standing up, she quickly glanced at Queen Su. Zhao Xiyan was secretly surprised by this look.
This Queen Su is indeed somewhat similar to the portrait of her mother, Mrs. Liu.
No, it should be said that her biological mother, Mrs. Liu, did look like Queen Su.
Calculating her age, the Queen Su in front of her is almost forty years old. She is extremely well-maintained and looks like she is in her thirties at most. Her skin is as white as snow, her black hair is as black as ink, her eyebrows are graceful and graceful, and her clothes are elegant and attractive.
Zhao Xiyan secretly marveled in her heart, but she didn't know that Queen Su's mood was even more complicated and subtle.
Zhao Yuanming's shadow can be seen everywhere in Zhao Xiyan's eyebrows.
Silence lies in the softest place in my heart, as if being scratched by fingertips, it feels a little sweet, a little sour, and a little dull.
"Your maiden's name is Xiyan?" Queen Su calmed down and asked softly.
Zhao Xiyan respectfully replied: "Yes, I was born in the evening, so my father gave me this name. I also have a nickname, Yue Ya'er."
Queen Su smiled and said: "This nickname sounds nice. How about I call you that in the future?"
Zhao Xiyan pursed her lips and smiled: "Your Majesty favors and loves me so much, but Xiyan is too embarrassed to deserve it."
Queen Su was very gentle: "In a few days, you will marry into the Beihai Palace. From now on, you should call me Imperial Aunt. This is the Heavenly Family, where there are many rules. If you are in an ordinary family, you should be closer."
This is true.
The aristocratic families are closely related, and everyone who has not been out of the fifth service is very close. For example, Zhao Xiyan lives in the home of her cousin Zhao Yuanren.
In terms of blood relationship, the North Sea King and the Emperor are the same grandfather, serious cousins!
Princess Yingchuan looked at her with eyes warm, and said with a smile: "That's what the empress said. I, my nephew-in-law, have the shame to call me the emperor's aunt."
Queen Su glanced at Princess Yingchuan and said something.
Princess Yingchuan did not feel embarrassed and stepped forward shamelessly: "Your Majesty, the Crown Prince has not been out of the palace for some days, and I am really worried about it. Could you please send someone to call the Crown Prince here, so that we and our husband can meet here?
one side."
As he said that, he glanced at Zhao Xiyan from the corner of his eye.
Queen Su said calmly: "Prince Yingchuan's face is still bruised and swollen, so it is not appropriate to show his face in public. After the palace banquet is over, I will let him leave the palace and return to the palace, and he will stay in the palace for a while until the injury on his face heals.
Now, it’s not too late to enter the palace. You and your wife can also have a good time together."
Prince Concubine Yingchuan perked up and thanked her repeatedly.
The Princess of Pengcheng was much more honest and stood aside silently without saying a word.
Empress Su glanced at her and ordered them to sit down with a smile. Princess Yingchuan immediately took the seat first and waved to Princess Pengcheng. She made it clear that she wanted to isolate Zhao Xiyan.
Zhao Xiyan didn't care at all and sat down opposite Princess Yingchuan.
After a while, a group of beauties came with the scent of fragrance.
It is no exaggeration at all, they are really a bunch of beauties, all dressed up carefully, plump and thin, enchanting and charming. These are the concubines who have high status in the palace, and there are countless concubines who do not have high status and cannot be favored.
In this way, Zhao Xiyan was not dazzling at all among them.
Queen Su had good intentions, Zhao Xiyan understood it clearly, and looked at Queen Su with gratitude in her eyes.
Queen Su smiled slightly.
At this moment, a palace servant came in and reported: "Your Majesty, the Emperor has arrived."
Queen Su immediately stood up and led all the concubines to greet her.
Zhao Xiyan deliberately slowed down her pace.
Emperor Yongming had a fat figure, and even in his dragon robe, he did not show any majesty as an emperor. The fat on his face trembled when he walked.
Empress Su saluted with a smile, and winked at Xiangmei beside her. Xiangmei immediately stepped forward with a coquettish smile, took Emperor Yongming's arm affectionately, and leaned in with her plump breasts.
Another favored person, Yan Gui, who was also a newcomer supported by Queen Su, also greeted her with a charming smile.
Emperor Yongming hugged him from left to right, his eyes narrowed into slits, and the corners of his mouth grinned to the base of his ears.
The prince was used to seeing her, so he just didn't see her and stepped forward to greet Queen Su.
Several feudal princes came forward.
Xu Jing, who was fined and grounded, was also among them.
The prince of Xihe could not stay in bed yet, and the prince of Yingchuan was as swollen as a pig's head and could not leave the palace. However, Xu Jing, the instigator, showed up safe and sound.
Princess Yingchuan was filled with anger and glared at Xu Jing angrily.
Xu Jing didn't take it to heart at all. He quickly glanced around and found Yue Ya'er's sister.
Sister Yue Yaer is really smart. Dressing like this today is neither rude nor eye-catching.
Xu Jing felt happy and smiled brightly at Zhao Xiyan.
Zhao Xiyan had been worried about Xu Jing being punished and punished in the palace for the past few days. Now she saw that Xu Jing's face was rosy and full of spring breeze, so she felt relieved.
Emperor Yongming took his seat surrounded by beauties.
Queen Su said with a smile: "Your Majesty, Crown Prince Yingchuan, Crown Princess Pengcheng and Miss Zhao are here today."
The three of them came forward together to salute.
Zhao Xiyan lowered his head and saluted properly.
Emperor Yongming took a casual look and thought that the rumors were exaggerated. Zhao Yuanming's daughter was beautiful, but even though she was a little dull, she couldn't be considered a peerless beauty!
On the other hand, Princess Yingchuan, who is in her twenties, is charming and has a charming smile.
