Because Cheng Yujin is pregnant with twins, it's clear that everyone has been expecting her for a long time. Li Chengjing didn't publicize it either. Instead, he gave the forbidden order to the palace people in the east palace.
Cheng Yujin was diagnosed with pregnancy at the end of April. In a twinkling of an eye, it was time for the second prince to marry Dou Xiyin.
On the wedding day, empress Yang was very busy. She was extravagant and had no scruples. I don't know whether she intended it or not. Many of the ceremony systems went beyond the rules of the prince's wedding, and even loomed close to the prince.
Marriage is an important watershed on behalf of men's adult life, so is the prince. Shortly after giving the marriage will, the emperor called the Ministry of rites to choose the title for the second prince and made him the king of longevity.
During the primary election, empress Yang went to the imperial study several times, trying to choose titles such as Qin and Han for the second prince. However, the emperor was very determined to ignore the words chosen by Empress Yang, and finally drew up the word "Shou".
Longevity, longevity. This is a father's longest love for his son, but it is by no means an emperor's attitude towards his successor.
The name was born, but the title was only proposed after adulthood. Many things can be seen from the land and title. The more powerful the country is, the more respect the emperor has. The more auspicious the country is, such as Rong, Ning, Kang, Shou, etc., the more position the emperor has in his heart.
As soon as the title of Shou came out, even though the previous dynasty was clamouring because of the second prince's wedding, half of the ministers were silent when they saw the name picked by the Emperor himself.
The emperor's intention became more and more clear. The emperor's preference for the second son is, of course, a long life. The position of his Highness the prince as the successor in the emperor's heart is unshakable.
Empress Yang was shocked in her heart, but she still refused to give up. She gave her son a big wedding. Dowry and betrothal gifts are clearly stipulated by the imperial court. The price of dowry and betrothal gifts is clearly marked in black and white. Empress Yang couldn't get over it, so she was determined to be strong and ostentatious. There was a sign that she was getting married to Li Chengjing.
Cheng Yujin also went to King Shou's house for a family dinner. As the most important person in the audience, she was the last one to come out. The wedding process will not begin until she is in place.
Cheng Yujin saw the decorations and ostentation around her. She laughed but said nothing. During this period, someone quietly came up to test Cheng Yujin's voice. Cheng Yujin just laughed and said nothing else. But just these words are enough. Cheng Yujin is the Crown Princess of the emperor. Even empress Yang and Empress Dowager Yang can't find out Cheng Yujin's fault. She is a reserve empress. How can she compare with an ordinary princess?
Moreover, how Dou Xiyin was given marriage, although no one said, but in private who is not clear? There is such a big stain before marriage. It's not enough to be a low-key person. I dare to make it public. I really don't think there is enough shame.
Seeing Cheng Yujin's graceful manner from the beginning to the end, people feel more and more that this is the future mother's bearing. In contrast, empress Yang's reckless behavior is a bit petty.
Half of the guests sighed and half disdained, but they were still holding the Queen's place noisily.
No one will be a fool to attend the prince's wedding banquet. Some of them can't help looking at the belly of the bride's wide coat when Dou Xiyin enters the royal palace to worship.
The wedding was held in such a hurry, I don't know, is it
It's also a coincidence that the brides' dresses are wide and stacked, which inevitably makes them look fatter than before. As a result, people with a heart are more convinced that Dou Xiyin is in a hurry to hold the wedding.
After the chapel is over, the new couple is sent to the bridal chamber. Cheng Yujin's status is noble, and she was not a lively character. Now she has a fetus in her stomach, and she has no interest in making the bridal chamber. Cheng Yujin sent Forsythia to the bridal chamber instead of her, and she went back to the banquet.
Cheng Yujin is now the center of the game. She went to the banquet and soon followed a large group of people. The crowd came up to greet Cheng Yujin with a smile. After a few greetings, they took their seats again and again.
Cheng Yujin naturally sits in the chief. With her light, the Cheng family can also sit on the top seat. When Princess Qingfu saw Cheng Yujin, she said hello with a smile. Respectfully and subtly, she inquired about Cheng Yujin's recent situation and sat down quietly.
As a mother, one day, she will be sitting under her adopted daughter. More than that, Princess Qingfu can sit here today, but thanks to her adopted daughter.
Princess Qingfu sighed deeply.
After a while, the Xu family also came. Cheng Yujin's table is full of people who are close to the East Palace, including Cheng's family and Xu's family. Mrs. Xu and Cheng Min came to greet Cheng Yujin and sat down carefully.
Mrs. Xu tried to talk to Cheng Yujin and said, "the Crown Princess looks great today."
Cheng Yujin laughed and said, "thank you for your kind words."
Although Mrs. Xu wanted to please Cheng Yujin, she was not flattering. Cheng Yujin looks really good today. She is wearing a red dress and her face is white and red. She is sitting here shining brightly.Mrs. Xu's purpose is to make a conversation. However, when she saw Cheng Yujin, she really envied her. Today is the day of Princess Shou's great joy, but Dou Xiyin's whole body is not as bright as the crown princess.
When someone asked about Mrs. Jingyong, Cheng Yujin shook her head and said, "I haven't seen her today. Maybe she's talking to someone somewhere."
Cheng Yumo's qualifications are not enough to sit at the first table, even if she is the sister of the princess. However, in today's big meeting, if Cheng Yumo doesn't get close to Cheng Yujin, can he expect the princess to come to you? Hearing this, Cheng Min sighs in his heart and shakes his head and refuses to mention her any more.
It's said that the relationship between Cheng Yumo and his mother-in-law has become more tense during this period. It has been almost two years since Cheng Yumo entered the house, but since the abortion, she has no sign of pregnancy. Every mother-in-law has to worry about it. But Huo Xue's temperament is still the same. Just think about it, you can guess how the Huo family flies.
They talked and began to serve. During the banquet, Yang Yan came to Cheng Yujin's table like a peacock. She could hear her laughter from a long distance: "I don't want to blame my wife for her poor hospitality."
Cheng Yujin held up her chopsticks and ordered some leftovers. She didn't mean to eat at all. Hearing Yang Yan's voice, she put down her chopsticks: "Mrs. Dou is very polite. We are not strangers. How do we need hospitality?"
Yang Yan choked, but she didn't answer. Yang Yan is not as deep as other ladies think. She is really proud today. Looking forward to seven or eight years, today her daughter really became a imperial concubine, which makes Yang Yan how unhappy? Especially today, as a mother-in-law, she did not preside over the overall situation in the Huo family. Instead, on the pretext that there was no principal in shouwangfu, she just followed shouwangfu to arrange a banquet.
The emperor and empress are empresses. Even if their son gets married, they can't go out of the palace to visit Shouwang's house in person. But when the hall is not there, the mother next to empress Yang will take charge of the situation. Yang Yan, as the mother of the bride, came to Shouwang mansion on the day of her wedding. She was warm-hearted if she spoke well, but she was in a hurry if she didn't.
But the client Yang Yan didn't feel that she was very proud today, especially when she saw the Marquis's residence in Yichun. Yang Yan has been playing with Cheng Yujin for a long time. She shows clearly and secretly that empress Yang attaches great importance to Dou Xiyin and how rich Dou Xiyin's dowry is.
Cheng Yujin sat in the chief, always just nodding with a smile, not talking, not cold. When Yang Yan finally showed off enough and went to greet another table like a butterfly, Mrs. Xu couldn't help but said in a low voice, "Mrs. Dou is really enthusiastic today. But after all, she's a mother in law, and she won't stay in the Dou family to host the wedding banquet. What will she do in Shouwang mansion? "
Another young grandmother of the Xu family heard this, pressed her lips and said, "I'm young, and I don't think about some things well. I think that when I have a daughter in the future, I must take the attitude of being a mother, and let the man marry his daughter graciously. I will never lose my fortune and help the man to entertain the banquet. "
When everyone at the banquet heard this, they all took a look at the talking daughter-in-law and quietly went to see Cheng Yujin's face. Cheng Yujin didn't say anything, as if she didn't hear it. She lowered her head to blow the tea in the cup. Mrs. Xu felt relieved, pretended to be angry and scolded, "don't talk nonsense in front of the princess."
With that, Mrs. Xu apologetically said to Cheng Yujin, "I'm sorry, princess. The younger generation of the family is not sensible. I'm making you laugh."
Cheng Yujin said with a smile, "it's OK for grandma Xu to talk fast."
Although Mrs. Xu's tone was rebuke, she didn't look angry. The daughter-in-law who spoke was a younger generation. She was young and had little seniority. Relying on her youth and ignorance, she could say what everyone wanted to say but could not. After that, the elder scolded the young people for not being sensible, and she could use it to please the crown princess. Although Mrs. Xu scolded, she was very satisfied with her daughter-in-law's cleverness.
At this time, a fish came to the table. Cheng Yujin asked about the taste and felt sick. The nausea surged up quickly and quickly. Cheng Yujin couldn't help but cover her lips and turned aside to vomit.
The accident frightened everyone. The servant girl with the fish's knee softened, then she knelt down on the ground and kept kowtowing and saying, "it's not a servant girl. She didn't do anything."
However, other people have no idea about the little maid. They stand up one after another and look at Cheng Yujin nervously. Fortunately, all the ladies here have had children. A wife of the Xu family had an idea and said tentatively, "the smell of fish is fishy. The Crown Princess smells fish disgusting, isn't it..."
Cheng Yujin didn't expect everything to be exposed so quickly. At the moment, half of the people at the wedding banquet stopped their chopsticks and looked at Cheng Yujin motionlessly. Cheng Yujin is very easy to resist nausea, pale face nodded: "yes, it has been three months."
Her pregnancy can't be concealed from the public. In a few days, her stomach will grow up, and sooner or later it will be known to both the government and the public. She can not take the initiative to say, but now in full view, if she denies, it is a lie.
It's better to admit it. Anyway, she only said that she was pregnant. As for the fact that she was pregnant with twins, how long can she hide it.
Mrs. Xu couldn't hold back and immediately called out, "my God." When she reacts, she is really happy and surprised. She doesn't know what to say."Oh, princess, you and the prince are really It's too cautious. It's been three months since we had such a big happy event. Why don't you tell us? "
Cheng Yujin can only smile, with a look of success, and calmly accept the congratulations of the people.
But actually She didn't want to, and she was helpless.
The news that the crown princess was pregnant and had been three months old immediately spread around the wedding banquet like a long leg. Everyone was very happy to hear that. Yu Gong, the first child of the crown prince, is the joy of the national ancestral temple. It's a good thing to be pregnant in any family. It was discovered at the wedding banquet. Everyone wanted to be happy. So in the second half of the wedding banquet, everyone rushed to congratulate Cheng Yujin. As for Dou Xiyin, the real heroine, no one noticed.
Empress Yang spent a lot of money on the second prince's wedding. At last, everyone remembered that it was all the princess who was pregnant. Dou Xiyin was robbed of the limelight. It can only be said that things are unpredictable.
Dou Xiyin went to the palace the next day to see her mother-in-law. They all complained to empress Yang wrongly: "aunt, I think she did it on purpose. Otherwise, the first three months have passed, and if I don't announce it sooner or later, it's just my wedding. Isn't it my intention to lose face? "
Empress Yang also felt very shameless, but after all, face is a small matter, empress Yang is more worried.
Li Chengjing came back completely. In the past year and a half, his reputation has been growing. Since he entered the court, he has never made any mistakes. He has also done several beautiful jobs one after another, which is very popular with the people. Nowadays, when it comes to the crown prince in the government and the public, they are all highly praised.
The only imperfection of this prince is that he has not yet had a son. The crown prince said that it is for the sake of national stability. If Li Chengjing does not have a son, his position as the crown prince will not be stable.
But now, Cheng Yujin is pregnant. And a appearance is the peak, has passed the most dangerous first three months. Empress Yang is very depressed when she thinks of this. These two people have a black heart and a black hand. It's clear that they are both strong. Why can they survive so well?
In the first month, she was afraid that her child would be harmed. Empress Yang could understand it. In the first three months, she was afraid that her child's happiness would be broken. Empress Yang could barely understand it. But now, I still don't know. If Cheng Yujin didn't smell the fishy smell, he would know when outsiders would know the truth.
The couple in Donggong are too cautious and tolerant, aren't they?
Now people in the palace understand empress Yang's mood very well, and they are speechless to the prince and princess. Little transparent afraid of being harmed, so dare not announce pregnancy, but the prince and Princess why also like this? Do they have any misunderstanding about their combat effectiveness?
Empress Yang's mood is very difficult to say. Dou Xiyin saw that the empress's face was not very good, and did not dare to make the empress dislike her for too long. She soon stopped crying and said, "aunt, they do not pay attention to you. Now that they have not yet become a grand master, there is still a chance to seize it. Aunt, why do you take this opportunity to send a few eyelints to the east palace?
Eyeliner? Empress Yang looked at Dou Xiyin and said, "don't you think this palace has tried? But it wasn't long before there was no movement among the people who went in. A lot of hands have been damaged around the palace. "
Dou Hsin hum lowered his voice and said, "then send a work in just ways that Cheng Yujin can't handle privately."
"You mean..."
"There is only one princess in the east palace. Previously, for the sake of children, there was still a feeling to be forgiven. But now that the crown princess is pregnant, she can't serve the crown prince any more. It's time to fill the East Palace and choose the people to serve the crown prince. "
