His Highness Prince Yun drove Beichi Dazi back to his hometown, and the news that he had won two cities in a row had been reported back to the imperial capital. Therefore, when they heard that His Highness Prince Yun had entered the city today, the people had already gathered at the North City Gate to welcome him.
Emperor Danxu did not keep his promise and went to the city gate to greet Si Haochen. No matter how he thought about it, he felt that it would be too shameful for Si Haochen. But if a good general returns to the court, it would be too embarrassing if he does not create a warm welcome.
He was a foolish emperor. After much deliberation, he finally decided that the prince would go with all the civil and military officials to greet him.
The prince was very obedient. After the court was over, he took all the civil and military officials to the North City Gate. He sent spies to find out where Prince Yun and his party had gone. Therefore, when Si Haochen entered the city wearing light armor and riding a war horse, the prince
The others had already come down from the city tower and went to greet them outside the city gate.
When the prince saw Si Haochen approaching with his soldiers, he quickly stepped forward to salute, and then began to greet him: "Uncle Yun Huang, you have worked hard all the way."
"Yeah." Si Haochen was as cold as ever.
In addition to the prince, several other adult princes also came.
Si Haochen fixed his gaze on the fifth prince, and a trace of gloom flashed in his eyes: "It's rare that the fifth prince is here too."
"The emperor's uncle defended Donghuan from foreign enemies and returned in triumph today. My nephew admires the emperor's heart for the world and admires his bravery and prowess. He will definitely go out of the city to welcome us." The fifth prince blew his rainbow fart very appropriately.
Many ministers who had previously looked down upon the fifth prince looked at him differently.
A flash of calculation flashed in the third prince's eyes, and he spoke leisurely: "Isn't that right? The Queen Mother held a family banquet for the Qi Qiao Festival, and the fifth emperor's brother claimed to be sick and did not attend. Now I am afraid that he is dragging his illness and forcing himself to welcome Uncle Yun."
Although the banquets in the palace are all hosted by the queen, they also represent the wishes of Emperor Danxu. The third prince did this, which meant that the fifth prince valued Prince Yun, but the implication was that the fifth prince did not take the emperor into consideration.
You can also taste the inside and outside of the words, and the meaning of Prince Yun's great achievements is to shock the master. It can be said that he kills three birds with one stone.
"The third brother is joking. I can only come out today after I feel better. I was really ill a few days ago and couldn't get up from the bed." Others stabbed each other in the back, but his third brother is good at stabbing himself in front of others.
Come here, damn it.
Si Haochen glanced at the third prince. This idiot thought that the fifth prince was weak and easy to bully. Little did he know that he was pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger. Now he was quarreling and trying to show his cleverness. When the fifth prince comes to take revenge, he is afraid that he will die without knowing about him.
How did he die?
Si Haochen was not interested in watching these boys pinch each other, and waved his hand: "I am going to the palace to meet the Supreme Emperor and His Majesty. If you brothers want to have a detailed chat, please go aside and chat."
The third prince and the fifth prince were both reviled. Although the prince was happy in his heart, he still maintained the appearance of a 'brother, friend and respectful brother', and stepped forward to rescue him: "Let's enter the palace quickly, don't let the prince
Grandfather and father have been waiting for a long time.”#@$&
People in the royal family have a special skill, that is - one moment they are tense, and they are about to fall out. The next moment, as long as there is a step down, it will become calm, as if nothing has happened. Everyone is two-dimensional
Multiple faces, free switching for seamless connection.
The brothers followed Si Haochen into the palace to meet the emperor. Emperor Danxu sat high on Danqi. Looking at the high-spirited Si Haochen below, his heart was full of mixed feelings. In addition to being the only one favored by his father and unruly
Apart from being unruly, this emperor's brother really has nothing wrong with him. He has never coveted the throne. However, whenever he saw him, Emperor Danxu felt a sense of crisis that the throne was unstable, which made him very afraid!
"My brother, I am fortunate to have fulfilled my mission and expelled Beichi's children from the country. This is a letter of surrender." Si Haochen handed the letter of surrender to Zhang Jinliang.
Eunuch Zhang presented the letter of surrender to the emperor for review. Emperor Danxu laughed heartily: "Hahaha, good, good, good."
Emperor Danxu exchanged greetings with Si Haochen, and also made some grand remarks with the soldiers who came into the palace together. He rewarded the Northwest Army with silver coins, colorful satin, and royal wine. He also gave it to the great hero of this time, His Royal Highness Prince Yun.
I was rewarded with a hundred taels of gold and three beauties.%&(&
Si Haochen accepted the order, with no emotion or anger on his face. He declined Emperor Danxu's invitation to have lunch with him, saying that he had not paid his respects to the Supreme Emperor for a long time and was going to Kuntai Hall to pay homage to the Supreme Emperor. Si Haochen's words were reasonable and reasonable.
, Emperor Danxu could not refute.
Mingruo led Zisu, Lithospermum, and Aunt Dong to make plum blossoms together. They washed the dried jar and wiped it with spirits. Then they salted the plums layer by layer, sealed them, and marinated them for twenty-five days.
Butler Zhou came over in a hurry: "My dearest concubine, the prince won the battle, and the reward from the emperor was also delivered to the house."
"Oh." Mingruo asked casually, "What did the emperor reward you?"
"A hundred taels of gold, and..." After hearing what he said next, Butler Zhou felt that the princess might explode.
"What else?" Mingruo raised her eyebrows slightly.
"There are three more beauties." Although Butler Zhou felt that the prince could not be blamed for this matter, he just felt guilty for the prince inexplicably.
"Ha." Mingruo was amused by Emperor Danxu's fussy virtues. Giving him a hundred taels of gold was stingy enough, but he also sent three living people. His one hundred taels of gold was enough to feed three of them.
How long have you been a concubine?
"Your Majesty has sent beautiful concubines to the palace before, right? How did you deal with them?" Mingruo scratched his chin.
"That...most of them were sent to the red tents in the army, and some who were incompetent were directly killed." Steward Zhou responded truthfully.
Is it so bloody and violent? I don’t seem to be able to do such a thing...
Mingruo felt that the world was inherently harsh on women. As a woman, she did not want to see women destroyed, and wanted to give the three people who had never met a chance to live a good life.
"Bring the person over here and show me." Mingruo said in a deep voice.
"Yes." Butler Zhou took the order and left.
Ming Ruo straightened her sleeves and walked towards the small pavilion in the front yard: "I've been busy all morning, let's take a break and see what the beauty looks like."
Zisu Shicao and Grandma Dong also put down their work and went to serve. The princess did not like to dress up, and if she wanted to suppress the "enemy" with her momentum, the three of them could not let go.
Zilan, Shutan, and Chunyue walked all the way, marveling in their hearts at the grandeur of Prince Yun's Mansion. Whether it was objects or people, everything was filled with grace.
Every three years, the palace will select maids to enter the palace, and will also let the maids out of the palace. The maids are usually selected from the common people and good families, but there are also some small families who send the good-looking concubines or the unfavored legitimate daughters.
.There are noble people in the palace. If you fall in the eyes of a noble person, you can also help the family by serving by the noble person.
Although such a person is not favored at home, she is still a young lady. Her knowledge and etiquette are much higher than those of ordinary women, and she is indeed more likely to be reused.
This was the case for these three people. Because they were good-looking and literate, they were singled out by the nuns around the Queen Mother to learn a lot of things individually, and they were reserved for admiration.
