Chapter 1022 No matter how noble a concubine is, she is still a concubine!
“No,” Jiayin suddenly thought of a possibility and frowned fiercely, “The post was for the orb, or the post was for the Jia family to bring the orb into the palace.
“Why does the imperial concubine invite a little girl? In other words, do all the guests invited by the imperial concubine bring little girls from home?”
The third princess also came to her senses and cursed, "She's quite scheming. What's the summer banquet? She wants to choose a concubine for the second prince, right? All the civil and military officials recommended him to be the prince, and she didn't dislike it enough, and she wanted to get married to increase his power? She really wanted to Tianwu is in the bag!"
Jiayin No matter how the imperial concubine plans for the second prince, she will never allow Baozhu to get involved.
Even if she is a concubine for the second prince, she is still a concubine!
Given the Jia family’s family background, there is absolutely no possibility of Baozhu becoming a wife!
As long as she thought about the innocent and greedy Baozhu, she might be trapped in the palace for the rest of her life, scheming with a group of women, and fighting to the death, she couldn't help but become angry.
"Caiyun, could you please go and find out who are the guests tomorrow? But they all brought their own daughters?" Jiayin ordered.
The third princess quickly agreed, "That's right, Caiyun, hurry up and find out more. The more detailed the better."
Caiyun didn't dare to delay and went out immediately.
The emperor's favor and attention are the weather vane in the palace.
In the past, the emperor sent tonics to the third princess every day, and even came to visit her late at night. Now no one in the palace dares to neglect the third princess.
Caiyun is also the eldest maid beside the third princess, and everyone respects her wherever she goes.
Besides, Caiyun just wanted to ask who were the guests at tomorrow's summer banquet, and it wasn't a big secret.
So, everyone is eager to take the initiative to speak clearly.
Caiyun sent out a few small purses, and soon returned to Zhilan Palace to report.
“Princess, princess, we have invited more than eighty people to tomorrow’s summer banquet, and indeed every family has brought their daughters. Most of the daughters are around ten years old, and the younger one is a noble daughter of thirteen or fourteen years old, with a prominent family.”
What is there not to understand about this!
The third princess turned on the sarcastic mode at that time, "The noble concubine is quite scheming. I'm afraid the second prince's main wife will have to choose from these noble girls with good family backgrounds and how many years older they are. The rest are about the same age, let's see what happens first." , I will slowly pick her out as a concubine in the future!”
Jiayin was also unhappy and said, "I don't care what she plans, Baozhu must not be involved. Let's go there tomorrow and find an excuse to bring Baozhu to Zhilan Palace."
The third princess nodded and asked, "What do the Jia family think? Do you really want to send the orb in?"
Jiayin shook her head, "Mrs. Jia Er loves Baozhu the most. She doesn't want Baozhu to enter the palace. She entrusted me to take care of it in the letter. As for the thoughts of the rest of the Jia family, it doesn't matter.
“Except for parents, there are not many people in this world who really plan for their children!”
The third princess felt unhappy when she thought of her father.
It is obvious that there is a big problem with my father's body and he cannot sustain it for much longer.
Not only did he have to deal with those in the court, he also had to make arrangements for her.
This is father's love, silent, yet great!
There was nothing to say all night, and in the early morning of the next day, the maids in the main hall and side halls of Zhilan Palace were busy non-stop.
The weather is too hot on weekdays, so Jiayin and the third princess dress casually, mostly for comfort.
But if you want to attend the banquet today, you need to dress up grandly.
Not for anything else, as long as they appear in front of everyone, they represent the dignity of the royal family.
Jiayin chose a summer shirt with azure branches and white magnolia, paired with a plain pleated skirt, embroidered shoes with pearls, and a pink pearl headband, which added a lively touch.
The third princess is much more flamboyant. She wears a bright red gauze skirt, a large peony flower embroidered with gold thread, and a red gold nine-phoenix crown on her head. Her whole body is sparkling with gold, and she is extremely noble. As soon as Jiayin saw her, he couldn't help laughing and said, "You definitely did it on purpose!"
The third princess held up the golden crown proudly and replied, "Yes, I did it on purpose! Even if she is a noble concubine, she is still a concubine!"
"This nine-phoenix crown can only be worn by the queen and me, the direct princess! No matter how much she is fawned over, she will still have to lower her head in front of me!"
Jiayin stepped forward and took her arm, smiling and saying, "Do you know why you bullied me when you were a child, but now I am still willing to play with you?"
The third princess blushed and said in embarrassment, "Oh, what are you talking about? I was young at that time and had no one to teach me, so I couldn't help but grow up to be overbearing and domineering. When I saw that my father liked you, I did something stupid. What did you do? Do you still hold grudges? It’s been so many years and you still bring it up!”
Jiayin laughed and responded, "Of course I know, otherwise I wouldn't forgive you! Although you are arrogant and domineering, and sometimes very stupid, I want to use a chisel to pry open your brain to see if there is any pulp inside. paste.
"But I have to say, you are a straightforward person, with a clear distinction between love and hate! Repay hatred and repay kindness! This is much better than those ladies who do one thing on the surface and another behind the scenes!"
"Of course, I am the most..." The third princess heard this proudly and was about to boast a few words when she suddenly reacted and stamped her feet and shouted, "What did you say about me? I'm so stupid and my head is full of mud."
Jiayin quickly giggled, picked up her skirt and ran out, causing the third princess to chase after her, "Damn girl, just wait! If you don't make me two bowls of ice cream today, this feud will never be settled!"
Caiyun and Shui Ling Shuiyun looked at each other and followed them with smiles...
At the beginning, the barbarians attacked fiercely and the capital was moved suddenly, so naturally they could not build a large palace in advance.
So, the current palace is just a reconstruction of the original palace.
In the past few years, Tianwu has been recuperating and recuperating, and the national treasury has had some surplus.
The palace has been renovated in some places one after another, but the foundation is here. No matter how much it is modified, it cannot be called magnificent.
Fortunately, the emperor has few concubines and even fewer children, so they can still accommodate them.
For a summer banquet like today, if you want to find a spacious place with a good view, you can only choose the Imperial Garden.
There is never a shortage of smart people in the world. The second prince is very popular now, and the noble concubine is also very popular.
The concubine organized a banquet today, and naturally the eunuchs and maids everywhere in the palace actively helped.
The imperial garden, which was originally colorful, was even more clean and tidy, without a single weed.
Even the pavilions are covered with fine gauze, which is breathable and cool.
Occasionally, the breeze blows, and the fine yarn flutters, adding a bit of elegance and beauty.
There were many visitors. In order to avoid crowding in front of the palace, many people from lower family backgrounds even set out before dawn.
The Jia family is one of them.
Baozhu's father had a low official position and his mother had no official title, so she had to go to the banquet with her eldest aunt.
Mrs. Jia's character is a bit rigid and rules-oriented, and she is not as smooth and flexible as Mrs. Jia's second wife.
Therefore, Baozhu was strictly required to sit up straight, not allowed to speak, not allowed to eat or drink, and not even allowed to nap.
She was going crazy!
At this time, Mrs. Jia was sitting in the corner of the banquet with several ladies from similar family backgrounds, chatting. The orb was hidden behind them. She secretly covered her mouth and yawned, her sleepy tears almost falling.
Girls from other houses gathered together to talk about clothes and jewelry. Some people occasionally turned around and saw the orbs like this, and couldn't help but laugh.
