In bursts of music, dancers dressed in high bun and silk danced as Chang'e running to the moon, and the slim gong'e rushed in with wine and jade plates.
After the monarchs and ministers drank together, they pushed cups and changed lamps among their colleagues, and kept talking and laughing.
In the midst of all the elegant conversation and laughter, the forthright laughter of the king of Dongyang is particularly striking, that is, Xu Mingyi can also listen to his grandfather's movements across the screen.
But the old man was sure that although the wine was good, he was not greedy.
After the banquet, the ministers and their families left one after another.
Dingnan king also left the table early, probably because he had a few quarrels with Dongyang king at the table. He was so angry that he didn't eat a few dishes, so he took his grandson back.
Wu ran was reluctant to leave. He wanted to talk more with Ming Shi.
Xu Mingshi also watched his friends leave. He was used to the unique relationship between the two old men.
After the banquet, the Empress Dowager was quite interested and proposed to go to the moon tower to enjoy the moon.
The Mid Autumn Festival is a good time to enjoy the moon. Especially tonight, the sky is beautiful and the night is very good.
Emperor Zhaozhen was happy to accompany him. He nodded immediately and grabbed his son and his future daughter-in-law.
Princess Yongjia and Hei agreed.
Emperor Zhaozhen looked at the king of Dongyang again and asked with a smile, "it's still early. Will the general go to the moon building together?"
The old man waved his hand, "I won't go to spoil the scenery."
Hearing this, Emperor Zhaozhen suddenly laughed twice. He remembered an old thing: when he was a teenager, once in the camp, on the night of the Mid Autumn Festival, people sat around the campfire. It was also watching the moon. The king of Dingnan recited poetry and homesickness, but the general seriously discussed with his men: Wu Gang can't do it. If he goes down with a few axes, he can cut down the osmanthus tree.
Dingnan King sneered at the speech, scolded it for the reckless man, and said that the cinnamon tree was a divine tree, which could be healed after the axe was cut. His words implied that the general was talking big.
The general tried his best and claimed that as long as he cut fast enough, there would be no cinnamon trees he could not cut down.
What else? Even without an axe, it can be uprooted!
They argued for a long time.
Master Wu's face flushed and his aristocratic family's demeanor disappeared.
The general was so angry that he wanted to rush to the sky and break into the Moon Palace to prove his divine power.
At that time, he was still young. He looked at the innocent full moon silently. He couldn't figure out what was so noisy about this ethereal thing
Later, he realized that there was nothing in the world that the two old men couldn't quarrel.
The king of Dongyang took his children and grandchildren out of the Palace first. Cui and Xu Mingyi accompanied the Empress Dowager and his party to move to the moon tower.
There is a high-rise Pavilion in the building with a wide view. Once several large windows are opened, there are stars and rivers in the night. It is most suitable to enjoy the moon. Therefore, it is named the moon building.
Gong'e, the internal supervisor, had already arranged melon, fruit, tea and preserves with all kinds of moon cakes and cakes.
The crowd gathered around the Empress Dowager to enjoy the moon and chat. There was no noise in the Baohe hall, but only the breeze and the moon.
Emperor Zhaozhen was also very relaxed, with a smile on his face all the time. He talked to his mother and mentioned the old affair between King Dingnan and King Dongyang, which made the old empress dowager laugh and almost burst into tears: "these two enemies..."
Xu Mingyi and Xie Wukang also laughed.
At this time, the sea queen, who had been somewhat restrained sitting next to the empress dowager, stood up hesitantly.
People couldn't help but cast their eyes.
Facing the people's eyes, Heidegger grasped his sleeves, and his eyes couldn't help dodging.
"What's the matter?" emperor Zhaozhen said, "if you're tired, let sang'er accompany you back to have a rest."
In fact, according to his intention, the other party didn't have to follow, so he didn't feel so uncomfortable.
Unexpectedly, he heard Haishi say, "my concubine... My concubine wants to compensate with Miss Xu."
As soon as he said this, he was quiet.
Don't say anyone else, even Xu Mingyi himself was very confused: "I don't know what the Queen's mother meant by this?"
An elder, who is also a queen, how can he compensate her?
"A few days ago, outside Shoukang palace, sang'er had no words and deeds, and had offended Miss Xu..." Hai said in a ashamed tone: "the child grew up in Mizhou with my majesty and me. He is indulgent and careless. In fact, he has no bad heart... Please don't take it seriously."
Xu Mingyi was very surprised. She never thought that Heidegger would compensate with her younger generation for this.
But... Does this have anything to do with carelessness?
Seeing that Hei raised her hand and was about to salute, she also stood up: "the Queen's mother is serious, and she will kill her courtiers. If she doesn't mention it, her courtiers have forgotten it."
She didn't know why the other party wanted to mention it in public, and she assumed such a humble attitude.
But she knew that, according to common sense, once the other party said these words, if Princess Yongjia suffered a loss here in the future, it would appear that she was deliberately retaliating.
Naturally, this is to speak in depth, and she doesn't care what others think.
Perhaps she thought the other party too complicated, but anyway, since the other party said so, she naturally wanted to say enough about the scene.
Over there, Princess Yongjia reacted and her face sank.
Is the mother crazy!
He said this in front of his father, emperor, grandmother and brother!
Empress Tang, being so humble to the daughter of a foreign minister... It's humiliating to send her to the door!
And also pull her to be humiliated together!
"Sang'er, what's going on?" emperor Zhaozhen asked.
For those eyes that didn't distinguish happiness and anger, but didn't have a smile, Princess Yongjia panicked and hurriedly said, "I just told a few jokes with Miss Xu that day!"
Then he looked at Heidegger: "my mother is making a mountain out of a molehill!"
Seeing his daughter's eyes full of shame and anger, Heidegger wanted to stop talking. He glanced at Xu Mingyi very quickly.
This little move could not escape Cui's eyes.
What does her family do?
This is what the mother and daughter do not say, but it is difficult for them to do anything, but her family has never done anything from beginning to end. But the fact that she has been dragged into the water helps the princess to take the stairs, and the two words of this joke can not be achieved.
Cui didn't want his daughter to be wronged at all, so he quietly and gently pulled the girl's dress.
They worked hard for the Xu family. Today, they didn't come to play with the sticky queen.
Don't say anything. You need to be sensible to attract people's favor. The premise of being sensible is not wronging yourself.
Zhaozhao hasn't married yet!
Xu Mingyi knew it clearly.
What jokes or not, whatever they say, she just doesn't interrupt anyway.
She is not interested in telling lies for others.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Heidegger grabbed her sleeve and scolded her daughter: "wrong is wrong. Even if it's a joke, it shouldn't be measured... Don't compensate Miss Xu quickly!"
"..." Princess Yongjia suddenly stood up with a red and white complexion.
She held a fire in her heart and wanted to attack, but when she saw emperor Zhaozhen sitting there, she had to suppress it.
Her father never scolded her, but she always had unspeakable fear of her father. This fear was influenced by her mother's words for many years and took root in her heart. She always felt that her father was always far away and had no sense of closeness with her mother.
Even though she had more temper, she never dared to break out in front of her father.
She clutched her fingers, her eyes turned red, and said almost word by word: "... I didn't speak properly that day. Please forgive me, Miss Xu."
On the pair of "so you are satisfied" eyes, Xu Mingyi was silent.
Well, it's probably a complete hatred of her.
Who the hell did she provoke?
Then he could only say, "the princess is serious."
Taking a look at Heidegger, the Empress Dowager also sighed at the bottom of her heart.
Others don't know what her daughter is like. Doesn't she know it herself?
Is there any reason to force the head in such a thing?
So, do you really want to solve the problem, or do you just want to do superficial Kung Fu, so that others can see how sensible and strict you are?
At present, although the daughter-in-law doesn't talk much, she thinks a lot carefully.
To put it mildly, I have the potential to be a shit stirring stick
She has never despised each other because of her daughter-in-law's birth, but at this moment, she still has to admit that she is a short-sighted, and she can't understand what the real pros and cons are.
The Empress Dowager had a resolution in her heart, and her face was still calm. She smiled and said, "well, since they all said it, sit down."
Then he looked at the crowd and said with kindness in his eyes: "we all want to be a family in the future. There is nothing to say. Moreover, our family has a simple population and there are not so many twists and turns... AI family is old, so he likes to see a family and happy."
In a word, if anyone wants to make trouble, it is tantamount to against her. She will never tolerate the loss of propriety in doing things.
Everyone should say "yes" in unison, and everyone should remember it.
The Empress Dowager nodded happily, "OK, OK."
It's really great.
She is in a good mood to enjoy the moon.
Emperor Zhaozhen said in good time: "it's cool at night. Let's go back after our son sends his mother."
The Empress Dowager nodded, looked deeply at her son and said, "the mourning family is accompanied by Chunbai. You should go back and have a rest earlier."
Then he looked at Cui and Xu Mingyi and said with a smile, "ask ah yuan to send you off and come back to the palace to talk another day."
Today's affair made her lose her old face in front of her in laws.
It seems that there is no big trouble, but people can't tell why the sticky is the worst. It's also possible if two ordinary families are changed and the marriage is ruined.
Heidegger's careful thinking, is it really stupid to be others?
Xie Wukang should come down. He understood the emperor's grandmother's intention. He, together with Zhaozhao and his wife, said more clearly about tonight, so as to avoid estrangement.
After the people left one after another, Princess Yongjia also went back with her maid with red eyes.
Soon only emperor Zhaozhen and Hai were left in the pavilion, and the palace supervisor was also dismissed.
Seeing emperor Zhaozhen sitting still, Heidegger was a little uneasy. She felt that she should say something.
Admit your mistake?
Sonny did something wrong. She really should admit it.
When she was about to speak, Emperor Zhaozhen opened his mouth in front: "I see you don't seem to adapt to the life in the palace. If you have any plans, just tell me."
He has known Heidegger for many years, but when he really gets along with him, he doesn't dare to boast about his understanding, but he still knows one thing - Heidegger is too sensitive, and she can misinterpret a lot in a simple sentence. So he didn't intend to say much about tonight, but chose the most important thing to say.
Heidegger turned white.
"The Emperor... Is he going to drive my concubine away? My concubine... My concubine doesn't get used to life in the palace. My concubine practices etiquette and learns Beijing dialect every day!" she was a little flustered: "Miss Xu, it's sang'er's fault. I blame my concubine for her failure to be restrained. My concubine will be --"
Emperor Zhaozhen had no choice but to raise his hand and interrupt her.
"I see how you are in the palace. I don't want to blame you. You don't have to force yourself. The Queen's duty is not within the original agreement between you and me."
Heidegger's eyelash fibrillation.
So she is useless to him now. Is the agreement going to end?
"Everything I promised you at the beginning still counts, including sang'er's marriage." emperor Zhaozhen said, "I have found some suitable candidates for sang'er recently. They may not be outstanding in appearance, but they are more valuable than personal goods. Tomorrow I will send someone a portrait, and you can discuss and decide with sang'er."
The night wind passed through the window lattice, and Heidegger was cold.
After arranging Sonny's marriage, you can arrange her, right?
Finding a husband is not a day's work, so he has already made a decision
She knew.
She knew she shouldn't come to the capital and couldn't let him sit on the throne
When he became emperor, everything changed.
No matter how hard she tries, it's useless.
Bursts of cold wind poured in, as if through her internal organs, cold and painful.
"What I just said, you should think about it." emperor Zhaozhen got up and left, and finally said.
Listening to the distant footsteps, Heidegger's mouth trembled and pulled out a ironic smile.
consider?
Now that he has spoken, does she still have room to think?
Heidegger sat rigidly in the same place until mammy came to find it. Only then did he leave Deyue building in a muddle.
Back in Yukun palace, I saw Princess Yongjia waiting in the bedroom.
Princess Yongjia cried and had a big quarrel with her.
After his daughter left, Heidegger sat down in a daze, but his ears still seemed to echo his daughter's crying and questioning——
"Why doesn't the empress mother discuss with me for half a sentence, so there is this foolish act tonight! You don't want face, but I want it!"
"It was just a trivial matter, but now it's so noisy that both father and grandmother know. You'll be happy if you bake me on the fire, won't you?"
“……”
At that time, listening to her daughter's strange words, she thought about her current situation and got out of control.
Looking at the girl with the shadow of her biological father between her eyebrows and eyes, she even gave birth to hatred for the first time.
She slapped sonny.
And the hand is very heavy, and there is even some numbness in the palm at this time.
After a slap fell, she stared at the girl and asked angrily——
"Why do I do this? I don't want you to make enemies with the future Crown Princess! Do you know how much I have worked for you and how many disasters I have cleaned up for you over the years? If you are more sensible and like your father, why should I be so worried about you!"
These words, this slap in the face, also let the girl break out completely.
