One second to remember [Brushstroke Pavilion] [Free of charge, read the wonderful novel!]
This one month banquet was even more lively than the one between the Second and Sixth Princes' marriages. Officials and their families were all dressed up in fine clothes, so the gifts each of them were worth quite a bit.
No matter whether she was a member of the clan or a member of the imperial clan, both had assumed that Baili Junyi was from the commoner's background. Even though Consort Xian held the position of imperial concubine, her looks … It's fine if you don't want to say it. He had originally thought that even if such a prince obtained the recognition of the Emperor, it would still be difficult for him to rise above the masses. He hadn't thought that in such a short period of time, he would suddenly become the Emperor's most favored son.
After all, she was just a piece of meat, and couldn't hold back the fact that someone else would give birth to a new wife. Others were always worried that one would be their daughter, but for her, hugging two a year was still the most auspicious and auspicious twin of a dragon and phoenix. This made the roots of their teeth itch in envy.
When Baili Junyi led Shen Ninghua to the front courtyard, everyone's gazes were filled with envy and jealousy, each and every one of them burning with passion. Their thoughts were even more ironic: if they took a good look at it, they might be able to share in the blessings, and perhaps even add a child or two to it.
Bu Tinghe was sitting in the VIP seat. As he watched the two walking in hand in hand, the hatred in his eyes surged.
Shen Ninghua was dressed in a pink and white dress with a large area of bright red blossoming crabapple blossoms embroidered on the hem, causing the originally simple dress to suddenly burn even more intensely. The high-quality silk was gorgeous and charming, and the bright red flower was extremely beautiful. However, no matter how outstanding the dress was, it was still unable to conceal the radiance exuding from Shen Ninghua's body. She was like a firefly in the dark night, causing people to yearn for her uncontrollably from the bottom of their hearts.
Baili Junyi stood to the side, dressed in a black robe. The exquisite dark patterns on his clothes accentuated his slender figure. There was a warm smile on her sharp face, but she was acutely aware that this smile was especially cold. It was cold, like the snow on a mountain, and only when she looked at Shen Ninghua beside her would it reach her eyes.
Because he was clenching his fists tightly, a heart-wrenching pain came from the fracture of his forearm. Bu Tinghe's face paled as he firmly bit down on the tip of his tongue, and only after he felt the taste of blood in his mouth did he loosen his teeth. She couldn't help but think of the bloodthirsty, cold, and cruel look in Baili Junyi's eyes when she was in the Sixth Prince's residence. It wasn't that he didn't know how to be gentle, but that he had given all of his gentleness to Shen Ninghua …
Shen Ninghua, to be able to obtain your cousin's favor is your greatest sin. Everything you enjoy belongs to me. So, don't blame me for being merciless. You can only blame yourself for being unlucky!
The Third Prince, Baili Jin Yu, sat at the side and looked at Bu Tinghe with a pained expression. They hadn't seen each other for a few days, but Princess Wen He seemed to have become thinner and thinner.
When he thought about what happened that day, a nostalgic smile appeared on his face. Speaking of which, it was his fault, because he told mufei about the matter between Bu Tinghe and him, but mufei firmly refused to let him marry Bu Ting Huo as his first wife. It was true, if he wanted to fight for that position, then in the future, the first wife would be the empress.
Thus, things had been delayed. Now that he thought about it, in the end, he had still let her down, so he could only let her become a secondary wife. Once he achieved his goal, he would definitely give her an honorable position as compensation. Right now, Imperial Father was especially happy that Shen Ninghua gave birth to twins, so he could use this opportunity to mention it.
Bu Tinghe noticed the third prince's gaze and looked at him with trembling eyes. A bashful smile appeared on his face and he opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he seemed to sense that something was wrong and could only lower his head with a smile.
This kind of hesitant and bashful smile caused the Third Prince's heart to tremble. He could only wish that he could embrace everyone and speak warmly and softly.
Baili Junyi and Shen Ninghua greeted each other before a loud announcement came from the entrance, "The emperor has arrived. The imperial concubine has arrived!"
Everyone hurriedly came out to receive him. After a complicated wave of salutations were done, Baili Qing Cang and Bu Yun were welcomed to their seats.
Bu Yun held Shen Ninghua's hand. Seeing her ruddy complexion and clear eyes, he knew that she had recovered quite a bit. "I wanted to see you since a long time ago. It's just that while you were in the moon, I didn't go in."
"Thank you, mufei, for worrying."
During this period of peace in the northwest, it was peaceful in the middle of the imperial court. He felt extremely relaxed as he thought about it carefully. After all, these things happened after the birth of the twins. The moment he sat down, he said to Shen Ninghua, "Ningxia, hurry up and bring the two children out."
Shen Ninghua smiled and replied, "Yes, Imperial Father."
Bai Yu and Hong Ling each took their child out. Baili Junyi and Shen Ninghua each took him in their arms and carried him to Baili Qingfeng's side.
The two children were sleeping when they suddenly opened their eyes in a noisy environment.
The two children had inherited their parents' strengths well. Their eldest brother's appearance was similar to Baili Junyi's, while Xiaobao was extremely similar to Shen Ninghua. Once they grew up, they would definitely be exceptionally outstanding.
"Haha, my grandson and granddaughter are awake. Come, let grandfather give you a hug." Baili Qing Cang received Little Treasure and gently caressed her little face with his fingers.
At first, when he was about to change his embrace, Little Treasure was about to pout his mouth and cry. However, he was suddenly attracted by the Ancestral Mother Green Ring on Baili Qingqing's finger.
Baili Qingfeng suddenly laughed, "Haha, as expected of my granddaughter. To have such a gaze at such a young age, this thumb ring is what Royal Grandfather loves the most." As he spoke, he took off the ring and placed it in her small hand.
Little Treasure was only a month old after all, so he couldn't hold the thumb ring at all. He could only hold it weakly in his hand. Shen Ninghua, who was standing at the side, paid attention to this scene and immediately expressed his gratitude, "On behalf of Little Treasure, I, Shen Ninghua, thank you, Imperial Father. "Bai Yan, go get a red rope."
When the rope was brought over, Shen Ninghua put the thumb ring on and wore it on Xiaobao's neck.
"Little Treasure?" Baili Qingfeng was puzzled?
"Yes, your son and daughter Jun Yi have earned a nickname for their child."
Baili Qing Cang laughed, "It's all my fault, royal father. It's been a long time since I've given my grandson a good name. However, Little Treasure, this nickname is good. My Grand Princess is naturally a treasure. Does the wife have a name? "
When Shen Ninghua saw Baili Junyi's frozen figure, she couldn't help but break out in laughter. "My son's name was given to me by Jun Yi. Father asked him about it."
Seeing Shen Ninghua's expression, Bu Yun became curious and stopped his teasing actions. "Oh? "What name did Jun Yi give the son?"
"... "Boss." Baili Junyi's voice was low.
Baili Qingyuan was silent for a long time. He suddenly laughed out loud, "Boss, hahaha! Just wait for your son to grow up. Just wait for him to make trouble for you."
Just now, the Emperor had addressed Princess Zhao Hua's daughter as little princess and son, the crown prince. It seemed like he would have to give her the title in advance, these two were children that had just reached the full moon. If they were given the title, they would have to bow down and pay their respects to this infant.
Indeed, after Baili Qingfeng finished laughing, he said in person, "Princess Zhao Hua has given birth to a dragon and a phoenix. She has done a great service and has bestowed upon you the title of a prince with power equal to that of a prince. Baili Junyi, with the title of Prince Yi, enjoyed the prince's salary. The young master of the dragon and phoenix embryo gave the name of Baili Shun, and was conferred the title of Crown Prince's son. The young lady gave the name of Baili Yu, and was conferred the title of Princess Luoyao. Giving two pairs of jade ruyi, two pairs of pure gold longevity lock … "
The officials were dumbfounded. How long had it been since Baili Junyi had been conferred the title of King? And now that he had given birth to twins and been promoted to a prince, they couldn't even begin to envy him. Was this Princess Zhao Hua a particularly manly person?
Baili Junyi and Shen Ninghua knelt down on the ground together, bowing their heads in gratitude. "Thank you, Imperial Father."
"Alright, quickly get up."
Coincidentally, just as the two of them woke up, Little Treasure, who was in the arms of Baili Qingfeng, revealed a toothless smile, which made Baili Qingfeng burst into laughter, "Haha, aiyo, our little princess is helping her father and mother to thank us! Someone, quickly put on the longevity lock that I brought with you for Little Princess Luo Yao and Yong Chenbai. "
All the officials praised the young prefecture lord and Bey. Judging from the way the emperor liked his children, if it weren't for the fact that he was wary of Princess Radiant and Prince Yi's statuses, he would most likely have bestowed the two children the title of princesses and dukes.
Listening to the crowd praise these two children, Shen Ninghua couldn't help laughing inwardly.
Just as the atmosphere became particularly lively, the third prince suddenly stood up. "Imperial Father, your son has something to report."
"Hmm? What business do you have with me? " When he saw the Third Prince, Baili Qingfeng felt slightly displeased in his heart. During this period of time, the battle between him and the crown prince had become so intense that he had almost completely disregarded it. This caused him to feel an exceptionally great headache.
"Royal father, your son and Princess Wen He are in love with each other. I wish to marry her …"
Baili Qingfeng frowned, "You and Bu Tinghe?"
"Yes." The Third Prince looked at Bu Tinghe with a gentle smile on his face. "I have already decided to spend the rest of my life with Tinghe. I hope that royal father can grant my wish."
Baili Qing Cang passed Luo Yao to Shen Ninghua. His expression instantly became much more serious, "What did you say?" A marriage for life, who did he think he was? Could the marriage be set without even needing to be decided by his royal father?
The Third Prince was stunned. He did not understand why Baili Qingfeng would suddenly be so angry, "Yes …"
Looking at the Third Prince's expression, he suddenly lost his patience, "Alright, since you and Bu Tinghe have already secretly decided to marry each other, then let's give in to Tinghe and marry you as principal consort." I will send someone to the Great Yue State tomorrow to discuss your marriage. "
A main wife? The Third Prince thought of what his mother had said and immediately wanted to explain. However, when he saw the happy smile on Bu Tinghe's face, he immediately swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth. As a princess, her status was too high, and becoming a secondary concubine was too unfair.
Shen Ninghua's eyes were indifferent as she looked at the Third Prince and Bu Tinghe's ice-cold gazes, thinking, "These two really know how to pick a time to actually speak up at her child's Full Moon Banquet. Hmph, fortunately Imperial Father did not get angry, if it was because they ruined this Full Moon Banquet, she would definitely make them return it a hundredfold!"
