Chapter 290 I don't see you being so filial on weekdays
Eunuch Hai carried the wooden basin and happily went to the small kitchen.
"..." In the Kuntai Palace, Si Haochen was definitely the one who had everything he could do to control the wind and rain. Mingruo felt that the Supreme Emperor doted on his little son, and he couldn't accept it.
As for Concubine Qian, she came to the Queen Mother's Yongchun Palace dressed up early in the morning. The Queen also brought all the concubines to greet the Queen Mother and waited for Prince Ping and Princess Ping to serve tea.
Everyone knows that the Supreme Emperor has returned to the palace. The third prince and his wife must first go to the Kuntai Palace to greet the Supreme Emperor and have tea before coming to the Queen Mother's Yongchun Palace. Therefore, accompany the Queen Mother to chat about some topics she likes and wait patiently.
But the left waiter didn't come, and the right waiter didn't come either. The queen said leisurely: "What are these young couple doing?"
"Look at what my sister said. They haven't sent greetings to the Queen Mother yet, so where can they go? Besides going to Kuntai Hall, they are going to Panlong Palace." Concubine Qian relied on the support of the rich Queen Mother and went back to the Queen directly.
Then he said with a smile: "I'm afraid the emperor hasn't seen Yu'er for many days and wants to talk to him more."
Before Concubine Qian finished speaking, the eunuch announced: "The Emperor has arrived."
All the concubines quickly straightened their appearance and stood up to welcome Emperor Danxu's arrival.
After everyone greeted him, Emperor Danxu took his seat. Empress Dowager Qian said: "The emperor is free today and has come to this palace."
"I was thinking that since I haven't come to pay my respects to my mother for a while, I have to come and see her. Today, didn't Lao San bring the newly arrived princess to serve tea? I'm here, and they don't have to go to Panlong Palace anymore. Okay
Let them stay here to spend more time with their mother."
The Queen Mother is an 'old dramatist'. After hearing Emperor Danxu's words, her eyes immediately turned red: "The Emperor is busy with government affairs all day long, and he still misses me..."
This mother-in-law and son-in-law played the role of filial piety for a long time, and Emperor Danxu refilled his tea three times.
Emperor Danxu knew that the Supreme Emperor did not like to be disturbed, so he turned his head and said to Zhang Jinliang: "Why don't you come and see what's going on?"
"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhang Jinliang sent two young eunuchs to Kuntai Hall to inquire about the news.
After a while, the two young eunuchs came back and whispered to Eunuch Zhang.
When Zhang Jinliang returned to the main hall, his expression was somewhat difficult to express. This was not a good thing to say!
Queen Mother Qian had been impatient for a long time. When she saw Zhang Jinliang coming back, she asked, "Where did Prince Ping and his wife go?"
Zhang Jinliang organized his words before speaking: "When Princess Ping was serving tea, she accidentally hit the Emperor's favorite tea cup. She was punished by the Emperor and was made to kneel down. His Royal Highness Prince Ping is also accompanying her in the Kuntai Hall."
Zhang Jinliang felt that his words were vague enough, and he had tried his best to save Prince Ping's face. If the Queen Mother and Concubine Qian still came to take the blame, there was nothing he could do.
"Huh." Concubine Qian was already dissatisfied with Princess Mingyu. Although she was a princess, she had a great reputation and had little power in Donghuan, so she could not help Yu'er much. The dowry was less than that of Princess Qinghuang, and her appearance and figure matched hers.
If you don't go to Yu'er... This is the first time you meet the Supreme Emperor and you are punished to kneel down. What a shame for Yu'er.
Empress Dowager Qian was not very happy either. She had been immersed in the palace for many years - Zhang Jinliang did not mean just what he said. Although she wanted to know what was going on, she was afraid that it would be what she thought, and it would be even more embarrassing.
I lost Yu'er's face, so I didn't dare to ask in detail.
All the concubines are happy to wait here. After all, there are only a few people who are favored on weekdays. For others who are not favored, it is not easy to see the emperor. While the emperor is here, they must seize the time to show off. In case of intrusion
If you catch the emperor's eyes, won't you feel proud?
Any concubine who has a bit of 'talent' will go out of her way to show it off. Those who really can't be ranked will have their heads massaged by the Queen Mother. Anyway, places with many women are bound to be lively, and there is absolutely no such thing as 'boring'
explain.
Concubine Qian watched the 'little goblins' trying their best to seduce her husband in the name of waiting for her son and daughter-in-law to serve tea. She was so angry that her lungs were about to explode, but there was nothing she could do.
The queen was in a good mood. Concubine Qian took advantage of the fact that she was the niece of the queen mother and gave her a lot of stumbling blocks. She was very proud, but her son and daughter-in-law didn't live up to her expectations. No amount of shame would be enough.
Queen Mother Qian was impatient with being pestered by Yingying and Yanyan, so the Emperor rushed to beat her legs and shoulders, make tea and water for her, why don't I see you being so filial on weekdays!
"Hey? Why didn't Concubine Xian come today?" Queen Mother Qian wanted to find someone to chat with, but found that the one she wanted to chat with the most was not here.
"Yes, I haven't seen Concubine Xian for some time." Concubine Qian immediately helped.
Emperor Danxu glanced at Concubine Qian and felt unhappy: "On the Buddha's birthday, I made a great wish to copy a hundred volumes of scriptures to bless my Donghuan with good weather. Concubine Xian is considerate of my busy government affairs and shares my worries."
The queen knew what Concubine Xian was about, and the enemy of her enemy was her friend, so she naturally wanted to help Concubine Xian: "I know that this matter is important, so I exempted Concubine Xian from greeting her every day, so that she can write for His Majesty with peace of mind.
Sutra. All the sisters came to Qifeng Palace early to pay their respects, and then came with the concubines. This left sister Xian Fei behind..."
"That's very good. If I finish copying the scriptures earlier, I will feel at ease."
The emperor and empress sang along, and everyone just agreed. It was not a big deal, and there was no need to make the emperor unhappy.
The Queen Mother felt troubled and had no intention of 'entertaining' with such people. She just wanted to send them all away and ask about the Third Prince: "It's already this hour. I guess the Supreme Emperor wants to keep them in Kuntai Hall for lunch.
Where’s the meal? Don’t wait any longer, let’s go.”
The Queen and all the concubines bowed and left, and everyone felt like they were in the mirror - can they still take care of the food after being punished to kneel down? The Queen Mother really knows how to put gold on the face of the third prince. Even if the Emperor went to Kuntai Palace, the Emperor would not
If you have a temper, you may not be able to keep food.
Concubine Qian deliberately delayed her departure until the end. The Queen Mother smiled and said, "Please stay and have dinner with me, Yurao."
Seeing that Emperor Danxu was about to leave, the Queen Mother said before he spoke: "The emperor also has lunch here in this palace. There are assorted pots prepared in the small kitchen. The emperor likes this the most."
"Okay." Speaking of Concubine Xian just now, Emperor Danxu has not seen Concubine Xian for a few days. His youngest son is twelve years old this year and has not experienced the arrival of a new life for more than ten years. Emperor Danxu said to
Concubine Xian is really looking forward to this pregnancy.
He originally planned to go to Jinle Palace to have lunch with Concubine Xian, but the Empress Dowager said so and he couldn't refuse, so he had to stay.
The Queen Mother sent Wang Hai to Kuntai Hall to inquire about the news. The Emperor made it clear that he would be punished by kneeling for two hours. This meant that no one could plead for mercy, so the Queen Mother could only give up the idea of going to Kuntai Hall in person.
