Guard Chief Ying Zheng was very hungry, but Princess Qingxin had a noble status and could not help but deal with her, saying: "Your Majesty, I have learned a little bit about boxing."
"Is learning martial arts fun?" Princess Qingxin still had a straight face, but there was curiosity in her eyes.
… Guard Chief Ying secretly sighed and continued to perfunctoryly say: “Your Majesty, in my opinion, this is not fun because it is extremely tiring.”
Princess Qingxin was a little disappointed: "It's tiring to learn the piano, it's tiring to learn to dance, it's tiring to learn the pipa... It's also tiring to learn martial arts, why can't it be easy and easy to learn?"
Wei Changying thought to himself, I thought you were asking for this. Could it be that the empress hoped that her little daughter could learn some talents, but the spoiled little princess found it distasteful and wanted to pick something that was easy to learn and not tiring? It’s just that of any talent or skill in the world, how can it be easily learned without being tiring? Unless you're a natural genius...you have to practice regularly to prevent handicaps!
Although he was a little bit dumbfounded, Wei Changying was a little relieved. According to what Princess Qingxin said, she probably didn't come here because of Liu Ruoye's provocation. Of course, Princess Qingxin may also pretend... However, the princess is only ten years old, and not everyone may be like Liu Ruoye.
After thinking about it, Wei Changying asked, "Your Highness, you want to learn some talent?"
Princess Qingxin looked at her for a moment and then murmured in a low voice: "My mother often praises Sister Eighteen for her good calligraphy. I also want to learn something. But although the masters in the palace say that I am extremely talented, I am ordinary." I'm too busy to be distracted by these mundane matters... So... do you have any good ideas?"
She raised her chin, tried her best to look dignified and reserved, and said arrogantly, "If you can provide me with good advice, I will definitely reward you!"
Wei Changying secretly asked you, a ten-year-old princess who is so popular with you, how can you be so busy that you can't concentrate on learning some talents? How can an ordinary courtier's family have a lady who hasn't figured out what talent to learn until she is ten years old? She has been learning martial arts for several years... Wei Changying herself started practicing martial arts when she was five years old. As far as she knew, her cousin Song Zaishui also learned singing and dancing at the age of six.
Princess Qingxin has not chosen a talent until now. She must have been doted on by the emperor and empress, and she was afraid of the easy and the hard, so she was delayed. Moreover, the princess now does not want to learn how to cultivate her sentiments. She is just looking after the queen to praise her sister, Princess Linchuan. She has become competitive and wants to be praised by the queen. From Wei Changying's point of view, Princess Qingxin is really worrying too much. Princess Linchuan The writing is unprecedented and unprecedented, and the biological mother is Mao Bi instead of Empress Gu.
Besides, just now Concubine Deng invited Princess Linchuan to stay in her palace. Princess Linchuan didn't ask the Queen. She agreed first and then forced the Queen to agree. Although the princess was raised under the Queen's knees, she was not necessarily the same as the Queen. It’s one heart!
Thinking of Princess Linchuan's biological mother, Mao Bi, who died young... Who knows how she died
None of this is clear.
Therefore, Queen Gu often praised Princess Linchuan, but she may not have good intentions.
It's just that Princess Qingxin is young and can't understand the twists and turns, but she is envious of her sister.
Although Wei Changying knew that this was a good opportunity to make the princess happy, she did not want to be involved in the harem fight, so she apologized and said with a smile: "Your Highness really praises my wife too much. My wife is stupid. After thinking about it, she has no talent. If you want to learn well, you have to endure hardships.”
Princess Qingxin's hopes were all in vain, her face sank, and she snorted: "What an idiot, wasting my time in vain!"
Wei Changying saw that she had a childish temper and didn't take it seriously. He just smiled and said, "I know my mistake!"
The princess left angrily, and Liu Di came to serve her again, saying meaningfully: "Young lady, don't worry, Princess Qingxin has always been favored. When she was learning the piano, her hand was cut off. The Holy One felt sorry for the princess, so he ordered not to do it." I’m leaving Your Highness to learn something.”
Captain Wei Ying was startled and secretly said it was a fluke - luckily she didn't want to get into trouble, so she didn't give the princess the idea of going to school or anything. The Holy Father personally sent a message to her little daughter not to learn any talents. What if because of Captain Wei? What did Ying say? Her Royal Highness went to study excitedly. If something unexpected happened, or she was tired, she let the Holy One know about it, and blamed herself. I really can’t tell!
Thinking about it this way, it's no wonder that Princess Qingxin would ask her envious words about Princess Linchuan to her fateful wife whom she met for the first time. Among the people in the palace who the princess could often ask, who would not know what the Holy Lord said? Who dares to violate the holy order and encourage the princess to learn something? Princess Qingxin followed some people and couldn't find the answer. She was also thinking about learning something to compare with her sister. She probably asked people like this when she met people... I'm afraid she also tricked a lot of people who were bent on pleasing the princess, or who really wanted to be the princess. The one who came up with the idea
Wei Changying secretly thought that this palace was really dangerous every step of the way. With this thought, before Princess Qingxin left and no one else noticed him, he quickly picked up the toothbrush and picked up some cold dishes and snacks on the table to take a few bites... Don't let anyone interrupt her again, she is really hungry.
After His Highness's dancers danced a few times, Queen Gu asked them to step aside and allowed the musicians to continue playing. Then she held up the golden cup and started chatting at the table with a smile.
The first people to be asked were the queens, who were called Queen Run, Queen Dai, and the Queen Mother of England... He also praised the princesses who followed the queens. One of the princesses, named Chengxian, was teased by the queen. She was so embarrassed that she picked up the fan on the desk and covered her face. Her grandmother, Queen Dowager Run, was busy trying to smooth things over for her... Listening to the queen's joke, Wei Changying found out. The princess was recently promised to Gu Yiran.
Gu Yiran's fiancée might be dating in the future, so Wei Changying paid attention to it. Princess Chengxian looked as her name suggests. Her temperament was very demure and her features were pretty. She was not very beautiful, but she had a very elegant demeanor. She is noble—after all, she is a clan daughter.
After the queens passed here, it was time to go to the imperial court. The three of them were in the imperial palace. Queen Gu first asked Mrs. Deng about her condition according to their age, and then praised Mrs. Pei's granddaughters, each of which was more beautiful than the other. Liu Ruoyu was mentioned, but Liu Ruoye was not mentioned... Seeing this situation, Wei Zhang Ying was convinced that the imperial edict to marry Liu and select Liu Ruoyu as the crown princess was probably issued today.
Finally, I asked about Mrs. Su, the youngest person in the Yipin imperial family. Probably because the queen and the concubine had already expressed their affection for Mrs. Su to Wei Changying before they came together, they just said lightly that Shen Zangfeng was very attentive in his duties. Mrs. Su raised her son. , goddaughters are all good, so they continued to ask about the people below...
While Wei Changying slowly sipped the lychee green, he carefully wrote down these ladies, so as not to be rude when he met them in the future.
After all this, because he was behind the imperial concubine and not far from the queen's position, Wei Changying had been practicing martial arts for many years, so he could not help but be sharper and sharper than ordinary people. He even saw with sharp eyes... fine beads of sweat oozing out from the corner of Queen Gu's forehead.
You must know that the Queen has Bingjian on her left and right...
After forcing herself to exchange greetings with everyone, Empress Gu said a few more words to let everyone do as they pleased, and then she excused herself to change clothes... Wei Changying probably went down first to loosen up quickly.
It’s no wonder that today, in order to show the importance she pays to Princess Linchuan, Queen Gu’s attire is slightly smaller than that at the ceremony. The hairpins on the Twelve Flower Trees are all made of red gold, in order to show the queen’s noble status. , and many jewels were embedded in it. The embroidery work of the queen's Zhai clothes was more exquisite than that of Wei Changying's wedding dress. Previously, Wei Chief Ying had been practicing martial arts for many years and was still a teenager. When he came out of the cabinet, he was troubled by his outfit, let alone the forty-year-old Queen Gu.
Wei Changying secretly laughed that Mu Yitianxia's position was not an easy one to sit in.
As soon as the queen left, although the noble concubine was still there, the atmosphere became much more relaxed. The ladies whispered to each other, greeted each other across the table, and took the opportunity to connect with each other. The rich ladies also looked for their familiar companions to signal or smile knowingly, and those who were bolder simply started walking around.
Because Wei Changying was ordered to serve in front of the imperial concubine, he did not dare to leave in case the imperial concubine suddenly called her. Looking at the lively scene below, she couldn't help but feel a little envious. However, her direct cousin Su Yuli squeezed out of the crowd and came to her seat. She smiled quietly and said, "Mother asked me to ask you if you are still used to it?"
The direct aunt is different. Wei Changying glanced at her gratefully and said, "Auntie, I'm sorry, cousin, why bother running away this time... I'm fine here." He invited Su Yuli to sit down at the table to talk and serve. Her willow flute was very discerning, and as soon as she saw Su Yuli sitting down, she immediately backed away.
Su Yuli sat down and said quietly: "Mother saw Princess Qingxin coming over just now? Your Highness has a somewhat indulgent temperament. Did he say anything to you?"
Wei Changying lowered his voice and said: "Your Highness asked me if I have any more relaxed talents that I can learn?"
"You must not give her advice!" Su Yuli became anxious as soon as she heard this, and said quickly and quietly, "Before, a cousin of mine named Nian Chu gave her advice on how to learn Danqing. As a result, His Highness lost his patience after studying for two days, so he went to complain to the Holy One. The Holy One knew that it was Nian Chu's idea, and scolded my cousin, saying that he had no way to teach his daughter and would only bring trouble to the princess. ! Nianchu has been crying at home for several days, and he is still terrified when he enters the palace! "
Wei Changying said unexpectedly: "I am not familiar with your Highness's temperament, so I dare not give her any advice." Looking in the direction Su Yuli pointed, she saw a girl of about thirteen or fourteen years old, with a pretty appearance. She is tied with double snails and wears a festive begonia red skirt.
This girl's eyes were very lively, and she could tell that she was not a calm-tempered person. However, she was sitting motionless and upright on the table, as if she didn't dare to be disobedient after being taught a lesson.
Su Yuli said: "Nianchu is usually the most lively and noisy. He used to go to the palace to play with the princesses. Because of this, he doesn't dare to enter the palace now. My aunt has been coaxing her for several days, and now she My son didn’t complain about illness.”
Wei Changying thought that Su Nianchu looked young, and it was really true that the Holy Master was so concerned with a little girl... She quickly stopped and stopped thinking about it. The Ninth Five Supreme Being was not something she, a little minister, could discuss.
She said to Su Yuli, "This is the first time I've met this cousin of my cousin. Is she from the side branch?"
Su Yuli shook her head and whispered: "It's not a side branch. We have the same great-grandfather. Speaking of which, her grandfather and my grandfather were full brothers. It's just that her grandfather died early, and my cousin only had one heir. After my uncle carried the coffin back to Qingzhou, he was required to observe mourning for three years. Later, Xiaoman returned to the imperial capital. At that time, my grandfather thought that his cousin had no biological brothers, so he wanted to hire a legitimate daughter for him. As a result, my uncle fell in love with Princess Lingxian for some reason... My grandfather was very angry about this. This uncle was also a stubborn person, and he never came to visit except during the New Year. Princess Lingxian often sent people away! In fact, my grandfather is no longer angry about sending something to the house, but my cousin never mentioned it, and my grandfather couldn't bear to lose his dignity. "
Wei Changying was very surprised: "So she is the daughter of the princess? She is the granddaughter of the Holy Emperor and the niece of Princess Qingxin!"
"Cousin, you probably don't know that Princess Lingxian is the daughter of the abandoned concubine Huo." Su Yuli reminded implicitly - the abandoned concubine Huo was originally a concubine of the Holy Emperor. She was convicted of colluding with the imperial hospital at that time to sentence Ji Ying. , murdered the Sixth Prince, the only son of Concubine Deng who was beloved by the Holy Emperor, and was deposed as a concubine, demoted to a commoner and sentenced to death... Although her daughter was not deprived of the title of Princess Lingxian, she was no longer treated as such. .
After all, the Holy Emperor has nearly twenty princesses, just like the three unmarried Jinzhiyuyeli in the palace. Although Linchuan and Qingxin are both very favored by the emperors, Princess Anji, the daughter of Mrs. Zhenyi, is also unknown.
Therefore, although Su Nianchu is the granddaughter of the Holy Emperor and the niece of Princess Qingxin, she may not be more proud than other courtiers after entering the palace... Wei Changying subconsciously glanced at the lady next to Su Nianchu, guessing that it was hers. The mother is a fairy princess, and she looks no different from an ordinary noble lady, except that she always has a cautious attitude between her eyebrows.
Thinking of how Empress Gu had just greeted the concubines one by one, but did not say a word to Princess Lingxian, who wanted to call her "Mother" - and then thought of Princess Lingxian's two younger sisters, Linchuan and Qingxin, sitting high and enjoying themselves. With all the attention being paid to her, showing off her extraordinary beauty, the spirit fairy who is also a princess was lost among the many foreign wives, and even her position among the foreign wives was relatively low. Wei Changying secretly sighed: The relationship between the Tian family is really very thin, very thin. Thin… (To be continued)
