A Precious Pearl in the Imperial City - Chapter 77
Every time I get along with Sun Caiyao, Jiuzhu feels that the other person’s eyes look strange at her.
“When you first met with your younger brothers and sisters, you just returned to the capital, and in a blink of an eye we became a family.” Sun Caiyao smiled softly, and handed the prepared gift to Jiuzhu: “May the younger brothers and the fifth younger brothers be stronger than gold, and the love will last longer. .”
“Thank you Sister-in-law.” Jiuzhu took the gift box and handed it to the vernal equinox. She pulled up the sleeve of King Lachen: “His Royal Highness, I and my sister-in-laws will sit next to you, and you will talk slowly with some of your Royal Highnesses.”
“Okay.” Chen Wang nodded slightly, not forgetting to say: “It’s cold in the morning, don’t eat cold food.”
“Yeah.” Jiuzhu nodded, and walked to another table with the princes and concubines to sit down.
“I didn’t expect that my fifth brother was such a careful person to the people around him.” After Princess An sat down, she quickly said: “It’s a painful temper.”
“His Royal Highness has always treated people like this.” Jiuzhu wanted to stretch out his hand to take fruit to eat, remembering the coldness of this fruit, and turning his hand, took a snack.
“Huh?” Princess An laughed dryly, holding up the tea cup to cover up her gaffe: “Yes, yeah, even the father and the emperor like the fifth brother’s temperament.”
She couldn’t boast of anything else.
Princess Huai raised her tea and looked at Princess Ann. This second younger sibling seemed to have a straightforward temper, but she felt clear in her heart when she saw someone say what she said.
What’s more powerful is that she and Wang An have been married for three years, and there have never been other women around An Wang.
“My younger brother and sister’s flowers are really beautiful.” Princess An looked at the flowers between Jiuzhu’s forehead: “It doesn’t look like it was pasted, is it the younger brother and sister painted by themselves?”
Worthy of being a descendant of the Ming family, even Huatian is full of aura.
“This is my Royal Highness’s painting.” Jiuzhu was surprised when she saw a few sisters-in-law’s sloppy makeup. His Majesty didn’t say that it is easy for the sisters-in-law to compete with each other. Why do all the sisters-in-laws have such simple makeup.
“I woke up in a hurry today, I didn’t freshen up well, so my younger siblings laughed.” Princess Huai thought, if Wang Chen hadn’t come over early in the morning, they wouldn’t have to get up in a hurry.
Jiuzhu didn’t answer the conversation, even a little bit empty.
She awakened His Royal Highness because she got up too early.
Sun Caiyao looked at the Huatian between Jiuzhu’s eyebrows. Is this really a painting by Yun Duqing?
She turned her head to look at the table where the princes were sitting, Yun Duqing dressed gorgeously. In any case, it is impossible to imagine that such a man can stand his temper and paint a woman with flowers.
“The five younger siblings did not live in the capital when they were young, and they may not be familiar with us.” Princess Huai gently introduced their identities to Jiuzhu: “My maiden name is Wu, and my father is the minister of the Ministry of Industry. The second younger sibling’s surname is Li, a native of Beijing. However, her father served in other prefectures and cannot return to Beijing before the expiry of his term. The third younger siblings are named Du, and their ancestors are also from the Qing dynasty. The fourth younger siblings belong to a family of poets and scholars, and there have been many famous ministers from their ancestors.”
Speaking of this, Princess Huai smiled: “Our parents are all colleagues in the court. Now we are a family again. We must get along well in the future, don’t cause conflicts, and let others watch royal jokes.”
She took a look at Sun Caiyao specifically: “To calculate it carefully, are the fourth younger siblings only one year older than the fifth younger siblings?”
“Sister-in-law is right.” Sun Caiyao knew that she was speaking to herself. At the annual banquet, because of Ming Jingzhou, His Royal Highness lost his concubine and relatives, and even the prince was completely lost.
Maybe in a dream, she saw Ming Jiuzhu smile and die with His Highness with her own eyes. Looking at Ming Jiuzhu in reality, she would only feel that she was gentle and kind.
“There is nothing to do in the palace on weekdays, so let’s play chess and cards together, and we will have a good time.” As the eldest sister-in-law, Princess Huai was always considerate and stable in front of several younger siblings.
“Sometimes their brothers like to get together to cook in a warm pot and eat, and we can’t wrong ourselves.” Princess An answered: “Everyone can enjoy the flowers and barbecue and listen to music. How can we come here at ease.”
“Or, let’s set up the table at noon today and cook the hot pot?” Wang Fei An said, “Fifth siblings have just married into the royal family, and the five of us are gathered together. The hot pot is round, and we get together and lively. Reunion, good luck, how about the five younger siblings?”
Jiuzhu also came to be interested and nodded: “Okay.”
“Okay, I’ll let the kitchen be unsettled.” Princess Huai said to the maid beside her: “Go and ask some princes, would they like to have a hot pot with us?”
The few princes, except Yun Yanze, I am afraid that no one would hate the warm pot. Unfortunately, no one cares about Yun Yanze’s opinion. They all agreed to hear that some of the princesses wanted to eat the warm pot.
After they agreed, it seemed that they remembered asking Yun Yanze’s opinion. Wang Huai turned his head to look at him: “The fourth brother’s injury has healed. Isn’t it okay to eat a warm pot?”
“Thank you for your concern, my injury is healed.” Yun Yanze smiled slightly: “It doesn’t matter if you eat a warm pot, there are so many people.”
The palace people of the Sixth Palace of Zhang set up a big round table, everyone sat together, and every two people shared a small pot.
Lingzhou people are not very good at spicy food, but Jiuzhu likes a little spicy flavor in the bottom of the pot. Wang Chen was afraid that she would be spicy, so he still didn’t let them put too much spicy oil in their pots.
“Five younger siblings eat beef?” Sun Caiyao looked at Jiuzhu putting a piece of beef into the bowl, and said in surprise: “I thought you should avoid this.”
“Four younger siblings, Jiuzhu was only fostered in Taoist temples when he was young, and he did not enter the Taoist school. Where do we need to avoid this?” In just one morning, Princess An’s name for Jiuzhu changed from the fifth younger siblings directly to the name: “Doctor Said that women eat more beef to invigorate qi and maintain their health.”
Jiuzhu nodded: “Second Sister-in-law is right. I have been eating since I was a child, so I don’t have to eat it.”
Masters usually don’t give her beef often, not because she is taboo, but because beef is too expensive and they are too poor to afford it.
“That’s the case.” Sun Caiyao smiled reluctantly: “I blamed my ignorance and made my younger siblings laugh.”
“What’s the matter?” Jiuzhu looked at her puzzledly: “You kindly care, why should I laugh? The family said and laughed, what’s the big deal?”
“Taste this piece of fish belly meat.” Wang Chen put the cooked fish meat into the Nine Pearl bowl and raised his head to Sun Caiyao: “Sister-in-law, my princess is a straight-forward temperament, and never cares about these little things.”
Sun Caiyao shook her head. After she saw Ming Jiuzhu eating the fish, Wang Chen wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief very naturally, lowered her eyelids and smiled: “Five younger brothers and sisters have good temperaments.”
“The dishes are ready.” Yun Yanze whispered in her ear: “If you cook it again, it won’t taste good.”
“Thank you, Your Majesty.” Sun Caiyao picked up the vegetables and put them in her bowl. The moment the food was opened, the tip of her tongue was burning like a fire.
“Why, it’s not delicious?” Yun Yanze looked at her tenderly.
“No.” She shook her head and swallowed the hot water into her throat, a burst of sadness burst out of her heart, and she was sad that she didn’t understand.
“Come on.” Yun Yanze picked a chopstick of the dish just now and put it in her bowl.
“Thank you, your lord.” Sun Caiyao looked at his gentle eyes and smiled.
“This is not delicious.”
Jiuzhu frowned: “Bitter.”
“When you are young, you don’t like to suffer hardship?” Wang Chen chuckled, took away the leftover vegetables in her bowl, and picked two slices of ham for her: “Forget it, this king will help you eat it.”
Wang Huai looked at the crookedness of the two men, turned his head in disgust, and saw that the second younger brother and sister said which younger brother would choose, it was better than the servant who was waiting.
What’s wrong with each one?
Is the palace staff not enough, or the dishes they serve are more fragrant than others?
“Lord.” Princess Huai looked at him: “Eat well, what do you think others do?”
After watching it for so long, I haven’t seen any improvement. The grandfather of other people’s family knows how to pick up vegetables for his wife. What does he know?
Just know to eat!
Bad stuff!
“Oh.” Wang Huai shook his head and said with a laugh in her ear: “Man, how can you be like the second and fifth brothers, you don’t have a sense of manhood.”
At this moment, Princess Huai wanted to put his head directly into the tumbling pot: “Heh.”
Hearing the laughter of his own princess, Wang Huai confidently said, “It seems that you agree with me.”
Princess Huai took a deep breath.
Forget it, the murder of the prince in public would involve the Nine Clan, she endured it.
“The princess.” The vernal equinox walked to Jiuzhu and whispered to her: “The old wives at the Nishi Palace have just sent people to give gifts, saying they congratulate you on your wedding to the prince. The people who came also said that the concubines are with you. You are old acquaintances. If you are not here, I will take the initiative and accept the gift.”
“Do they have something to say about the order of several concubines?” Wang Chen and Jiuzhu sat together, and he heard what the vernal equinox said clearly.
“Taffles Zhao, Princess Zhou and other nobles.” The Equinox said the two toffees with the highest status.
“My king understands. Just accept what they sent.” Chen Wang nodded slightly, worried that Jiu Zhu didn’t know who the old princess was. He pressed her ear and said, “Ms. Zhao is the one who gave you the cloth tiger. Concubine, these concubines have been favored by the queen, if we do not accept the gift, they will be uneasy instead.”
“I don’t know if the cat’s leg is healed.” When talking about the old wives, Jiuzhu thought of the cat with a leg injury.
“After you return, I will accompany you to the Toffee Palace to have a look.”
“Go back?” Jiuzhu stared at him with scorching eyes: “The mother sent by the Ministry of Rites said, there is no rule of going back to the palace, your Highness, you want to accompany me back?”
“The rules in the palace are rules, but it’s my business if you don’t obey them.” Chen Wang put another chopsticks and fish in a bowl of Nine beads. It is good for your mind to eat more fish: “Don’t worry, I am here, and I will definitely take you the day after tomorrow. Go back to your natal home.”
“What way?” Jiuzhu was very curious.
“Secret.” Chen Wang smiled unpredictably: “You go back to the Kylin Palace in the afternoon and leave the rest to me.”
“His Royal Highness is amazing.” Jiuzhu looked at him with bright eyes.
“It’s all trivial.” He put several pieces of fish into the Jiuzhu bowl: “Come on, eat more fish.”
Vernal Equinox stood behind them and couldn’t help but feel happy for the young lady when he heard that the prince was about to take the young lady back to her natal home. It’s no wonder that the lady has insisted that Wang Chen is a good person, but he is really a good person.
The rumors are misleading.
After eating the warm pot and drinking tea, Wang Chen was finally willing to take his wife to leave. The princes breathed a sigh of relief, yawned and hurried back to their yard and started to sleep.
If Yun Duqing doesn’t leave, they will go crazy.
“Your Majesty.” Liu Zhongbao walked to the front of Emperor Longfeng in a low voice: “His Royal Highness Chen, please see me.”
Emperor Longfeng glanced at the ministers in the room: “All Aiqing will go back first, and other matters will be discussed in the court tomorrow.”
He put down the memorial, with a vague suspicion in his heart, newly married Yaner, the imperial garden spring just right. Du Qing is not good to accompany his wife, why should he come here?
“Father Wanan.” Wang Chen walked into the hall and threw the futon on the floor, kneeling on the futon: “Father, my son and minister have a small matter, please be accommodating and accommodating.”
Emperor Longfeng looked at him, then looked at the futon under his knee, and raised his eyebrows.
They all brought their own futon on their knees. Could it be a trivial matter?
