MTL - Six-Year-Old Child, Baojiao, is Busy with Kingdom-Building-Chapter 398 banquet
Chapter 398 Banquet
Murong Yun smiled lightly when she heard the words, waved to Huang'er, and said: "Auntie Jiaojiao will be notified by the maid when she arrives. Zong'er has been studying with Master yesterday, come quickly and show the queen mother."
Zong'er's immature face showed a trace of helplessness, walked over with small steps, and said in a cute and childish voice: "Mother, Master, yesterday Zong'er took the test of all skills, and Zong'er no longer needs to draw copybooks or read books today."
Murong Yun's face was pampered, and she raised her hand to caress Huang'er's cheek, and said with a helpless smile: "I don't need to study today, and I can play with Aunt Jiaojiao again."
Zong'er heard that Jiaojiao's eyes lit up, and the joy on the child's face could not be concealed. He said like an adult, "Well, Aunt Jiaojiao is very smart, and Zong'er likes it the most."
Just as he was talking, the voice of the servant girl's report sounded outside the door.
"My Lady, Princess Huixin and his family are here."
Murong Yun stood up, Hong Ling stepped forward to help her.
Zong'er couldn't wait to run towards the door, and arranged her robes very carefully, with her head held high and her chest high, very cute.
At the door, all the members of the Wang family walked in, and everyone was dressed up to attend.
Jiaojiao is wearing a goose-yellow princess palace dress, wearing a double-ringed bun, embellished with a small headdress, and two fairy silk belts are tied underneath, and there are thin glittering flowers between her eyebrows, which is smart and charming. Pretty as a little fairy.
Bao Ya is wearing a lady's pink dress, with exquisite makeup and elegant hair accessories, and her tall figure looks very temperamental.
Qiusheng wore an elegant green robe, and Meng Jun wore a dark robe as usual.
Liu Zhihua combed her hair meticulously, wore jewelry that she was reluctant to wear on weekdays, and wore a rich peony-colored dress, standing with Wang Zhuangzhi in blue robes.
Wang Zhuangzhi and Liu Zhihua took the lead in bowing down respectfully, "Caomin has seen the empress."
"The empress is a thousand years old."
Others also saluted and knelt down. Zong'er, who slipped to Jiaojiao's side, deliberately fell on Jiaojiao's body.
Nurse was taken aback and hurried over, but Zong'er sent her away with gestures.
Jiaojiao watched, Zong'er's big round eyes blinked innocently, Jiaojiao pinched his small face, and whispered: "Little naughty."
Zong'er showed a row of small teeth, and gave a rare lively smile.
He knew that Aunt Jiaojiao didn't like the rules of bowing and kneeling in the palace, so he waited here early to help.
Murong Yun had already noticed this scene, she shook her head with a helpless smile, and hurriedly stepped forward to help the Wang family one by one, and said with a gentle smile: "Everyone, please get up quickly."
Zong'er also hurriedly pulled Jiaojiao up, and echoed: "You don't need to be too polite, Aunt Jiaojiao."
Jiaojiao smiled and said: "Then thank you Zong'er."
Murong Yun smiled again, and hurriedly called everyone to sit down, "Uncle Wang, Auntie, and Qiusheng Baoya are all about to take their seats..."
Jiaojiao was also held by Zong'er and walked aside, Zong'er happily muttered: "This is what Auntie Jiaojiao likes to eat, and there are fresh ice cream with watermelon and nuts..."
Everyone laughed when they saw this, and Murong Yun said with a smile: "Zong'er is Xihan Jiaojiao."
The tension of the Wang family eased a lot in an instant, and Bao Ya smiled and said: "His Royal Highness is cute, cute and sensible, and the empress is very lucky."
Murong Yun looked at Bao Ya and smiled, then looked at Meng Jun, and said with a smile: "I heard that Bao Ya has promised someone, and she is a good match."
Bao Ya showed shyness, Meng Jun stood up and bowed, and said calmly: "Meng Jun, a grass-roots man, has seen the empress."
Murong Yun nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "Mr. Meng is a handsome talent, and he is very suitable for Baoya. Remember to send an invitation to this palace for the big wedding, and go if you are not sure."
Meng Jun Baoya was flattered, and hurriedly bowed his head in response.
The adults are speaking here.
Zong'er couldn't sit still on the chair, and gathered around Jiaojiao to bring pastries and fruits for a while, and told Jiaojiao with a smile that his master praised him yesterday.
Jiaojiao immediately gave him a thumbs up, and praised him with a smile. She thought she couldn't read when she was six years old, but Zong'er was able to read and write when she was only four years old, and she spoke like a teenager.
Zong'er dragged her chin embarrassingly, she was very grateful for this kind of praise, and brought fruit tea to Jiaojiao.
Nurse looked on in amazement, the two were obviously different ages, but the one big and one small communicated very harmoniously.
After everyone gathered for a while, a servant came to deliver the message.
"Report to Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager just suddenly felt unwell, and the banquet is about to begin, so please ask Empress Empress to preside over the overall situation."
Murong Yun didn't react too much when she heard that, she nodded, and said casually: "I know."
She knew that the queen mother would not show up. The previous emperor was the queen mother's own son.
This banquet is said to be for viewing flowers, but in fact it is also a means for the harem to help the emperor win over and consolidate the throne. The heirs of all major families are there, and the queen will match up people of the right age every year, and even give them marriages. The aristocratic families joined forces to form a situation of small forces.
Originally, the queen mother should be in charge of this kind of overall situation, but unfortunately for so many years, the number of times the queen mother has participated is very small, and almost all of them are managed by the queen.
Murong Yun immediately arranged for the nanny to take the prince on a brisket, while she led the Wang family to the imperial garden.
…
Imperial Garden,
The rules in the palace are strict, and there are men's and women's areas in the garden, which are separated by several screens, and through the gaps, you can vaguely see the situation on the opposite side.
The noble ladies of the famous family are very polite, watching the flowers in place, and the small group of acquaintances is talking in private.
"I heard no, Princess Huixin is not a member of the royal family, and she doesn't even have the status of a prince or nobleman. It is said that she is just a commoner."
"Although she is a commoner, her elder brother is the newly promoted No. 1 man this time, and will be Princess Jinyuan's son-in-law in the future."
"I think this princess is just a false name, and I think the reward was given because of Princess Jinyuan's face. Otherwise, the family background of Zhuangyuan Lang is really hard to catch people's eyes."
Si Mingyue, who was watching the ivy by the rockery, happened to hear these words, frowned slightly, turned around and walked towards them.
"What are you talking nonsense about?"
The clear and melodious female voice rang out.
The ladies from aristocratic families who were talking about people behind their backs were taken aback, and immediately looked sideways at the person coming.
Siming Yue wore a simple and plain apricot-colored elegant dress, and only two pearl hairpins on the double bun. She had a fair oval face with no makeup on, and a pair of almond eyes under the willow-leaf eyebrows were soft and watery. Her nose was upturned and her mouth was small. Clean and pleasing.
Seeing the person coming, several women looked at each other and smiled. Li Yan'er, the prime minister's daughter who was the leader, looked gorgeous, raised her chin and teased: "It turns out that she is a talented woman from the Si. She is just giving advice on weekdays. Why do you even talk about it?" Gossip is also here to give pointers, could it be that you know something inside?"
