In the evening of that day, Queen Xie held a palace banquet in the Jiaofang Palace to entertain a group of classmates and friends.
Sheng Hong changed into his regular clothes and attended the meeting together.
Lin Weiwei and others were no longer surprised by the emperor's shameless behavior, so they joked and joked with each other as usual: "Today's palace banquet, I would like to offer a few glasses of wine to all the ladies, and thank them for their careful care of the children in the past few years.
teach."
"Exactly. I don't know whether the emperor counts the wives or the parents."
Sheng Hong raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Of course I'm on your side, drinking together to honor the masters."
After saying that, Sheng Hong took the initiative to stand up, picked up the wine glass, and said solemnly: "Thank you, Master, for teaching A Luo. I will drink three glasses first as a token of respect." He drank three glasses in succession.
Then, Sheng Hong smiled at Lin Weiwei and others: "Now it's your turn."
Lin Weiwei and others: "..."
This Sheng Hong is still so cunning and sinister.
Xie Mingxi and Gu Shanchang couldn't help but laugh.
The drink was fruit wine, and even Lin Weiwei, who has a limited capacity for drinking, could easily drink ten or eight glasses. They toasted and encouraged people to drink lively, and the palace banquet soon became noisy.
Qin Sihun, who was slightly plump, stood up and picked up the wine glass, with a grateful look on her face: "Little Bao'er has always been naughty. In the past few years, when he was studying in the palace, the ladies have been worried and worried about him. Today I borrow
Three glasses of water and wine, here are some ladies."
The third baby is only a few months old, and the second baby is also naughty. Qin Sihun has endless worries about the two of them every day. She doesn't care about the little baby at all.
Fortunately, Xiao Bao'er was carefully taught by Xie Mingxi and others during his several years in the palace. Although his academic performance was not as good as Brother You and the others, it was still better than that of young boys of the same age.
Xie Mingxi said with a smile: "Sister Qin, there is no need to be so polite. Little Bao'er is smart and clever, but has a little impetuous temper. From tomorrow on, A Luo and Brother You will go to the academy to study. Little Bao'er is not yet old enough to enter the academy.
He will not be able to enter school until next year. In the next year, Sister Qin will have to teach little Baoer carefully. "
Qin Sihun agreed with a smile, and the two of them raised their glasses together and drank the water and wine in the glass.
…
The young boys and girls also took a seat today.
Brother Ji, who has been studying at Songzhu Academy for two years, sat at the top.
Thirteen-year-old Brother Ji has a handsome face and is taller. He already looks like a handsome young man. However, his voice is a bit hoarse and weird.
A Luo couldn't help but laugh and said: "Cousin Ji, your voice is so strange."
"Isn't that right? Is the legendary broken gong voice just like this?" Sister Fu also joked with a smile.
Brother Ji blushed at the joke, picked up the wine glass and said, "Drink, drink."
A Luo and Sister Fu giggled.
Brother You smiled and stared at A Luo.
Brother Yu looked at Sister Rong with a smile.
Brother Qin stared at Sister Fu with a smile.
Little Baoer stared at Sister Qing with a smile.
Brother Ting: "..."
Brother Ting rolled his eyes. Fortunately, they will go to Songzhu Academy Lianchi Academy tomorrow. If they continue to study together like this, several stupid cousins will be deceived by the bastard boy.
Brother Ting looked at the trouble and simply turned his head and said to Brother Lin: "Cousin Lin, it's rare that you are allowed to drink fruit wine tonight. Let's have a few more glasses tonight."
The alcohol content of the fruit wine is low and has a slight sweetness. It is suitable for a young man of about ten years old to drink.
Brother Lin and Brother Ting had never drunk fruit wine before. They felt it tasted good in their mouths, so they secretly drank a few more glasses... After the palace banquet was over, the two brothers walked back, arm in arm, singing and shouting all the way.
"Cousin Lin! We can leave the palace and go to Songzhu Academy tomorrow morning! Haha! I have been looking forward to this day for a long time!" Brother Ting's face was red and excited, but because he was slightly drunk, his voice
Extremely loud.
Brother Lin hiccupped and his eyes were a little distracted. He chuckled and said, "I also want to go to the palace to study. From now on, we can be free and have no mother watching over us."
Brother Ting also burped: "Fifth Aunt is soft-spoken and soft-hearted, but she can't bear to beat us up. In fact, what I'm most afraid of is Seventh Aunt. I feel happy when I think of being able to escape from Seventh Aunt's sight in the future.
"
Brother Lin put his index finger to his lips and shushed softly: "Shh! Let's keep our voices down a little, and make sure my mother doesn't hear what we say."
Brother Ting immediately shrank his neck and lowered his voice: "Okay, let's keep our voices down."
Yin Xiaoxiao, who had been following the two children and got a headache from the noise: "..."
Yin Xiaoxiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She stepped forward, stretched out her hands, and pinched Brother Ting's and Brother Lin's ears, one on the left and the other on the right: "You two bastards! How much did you drink? Look at these little drunkards!
Let me take a shower, change clothes, and go to bed! I have to get up early tomorrow morning to go to Songzhu Academy."
"If it's too late, I'll beat you two until your butts are blown!"
Brother Ting and Brother Lin screamed in pain together, how could they still look so arrogant as before?
…
In the early morning of the next day, when the sky was slightly bright, Xie Mingxi got up and went to bed.
A Luo also got up early.
Today was her first day to go to Lotus Pond Academy. Ah Luo specially picked a vermilion skirt and put it on. Her beautiful face, as fair as jade, was filled with joy and hope. Her eyes were shining with hope.
Xie Mingxi stared at her daughter quietly, with a smile in her eyes.
A daughter in my family is growing up!
As a mother, how can I not be proud?
In addition to the pride and joy, there is also a hint of sadness that the chicks are about to leave the nest for the first time to look for food.
"Mother," Ah Luo walked forward happily and bowed: "Are you going to send me to the Lotus Pond Academy today?"
Xie Mingxi smiled and hummed, then stretched out her hand to caress A Luo's hair: "Today is your first day to go to the academy. Of course I will take you there. From now on, I will ask Miss Yun to accompany you to the academy every day."
In addition to Lady Yun, the Royal Forest Guards are also indispensable.
Gu Shanchang also came with a smile: "Aluo, my grandma will accompany you to the academy today."
Ah Luo was filled with joy and nodded repeatedly.
Then, Sheng Hong also came: "A Luo, my father will also send you off."
Xie Mingxi: "..."
Xie Mingxi was both angry and funny, and rolled her eyes at Sheng Hong: "Don't you still want to go to court?"
Sheng Hong didn't take it seriously: "I have asked Eunuch Wei to deliver the order. Today's court meeting will be half an hour late. Just ask the officials to wait a moment."
Before Xie Mingxi could say anything, Sheng Hong added, "My daughter left the palace on the first day to study in the academy. How could I, my biological father, be absent!"
Ah Luo was so excited that she rushed forward, grabbed her father's arm and shook it hard: "Dad, you are truly the best father in the world!"
Sheng Hong looked proud, raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Of course."
