Originally, Sheng Weiqiao had no intention of letting Rong Suihe hold her leg when the newlyweds were driving in front of the palace. After all, the wedding night had just passed, so she was inevitably a little shy.
But after Rong Suihe was thrown away once, he refused to fight with her, causing more and more people to come in and secretly glance at them from the corners of their eyes.
Sheng Weiqiao had no choice but to let him hold her legs and wrists to prevent the man from doing anything that would make her feel embarrassed again.
At that time, when she arrived in front of King Gaomi and his wife, she saw that the man had no intention of letting go, so she quickly pinched her secretly and signaled him to let go.
Not wanting Suihe to get too playful, he not only didn't let go, but deliberately stretched out his fingers to scratch her palm.
Sheng Weiqiao was immediately furious, and glanced over with a cold glance... Rong Suihe was immediately frightened, and he let go very obediently, straightened his clothes, and greeted in front: "Father, King, and Mother!"
"Good boy, are we here?" The Gaomi King and his wife were sitting in Gao Lindong, and they could clearly see the actions between the young couple. The Gaomi King was also very smart, and he couldn't think about whether to let the young son who suddenly ran back threaten him. As the crown prince, Rong Suihe was eaten to death by his new wife, which may not be a good thing for King Gaomi.
After all, Sheng Weiqiao's reputation had little to do with Xian Hui's sincerity. With such a squeamish and willful wife, King Gaomi felt that Rong Suihe might have overpaid for his good deeds.
So when he saw it, he pretended not to see it, and said calmly, "Mi Xue, look at the appearance of those two children, a talented man and a beautiful woman. Do they look like us when we were young?"
Princess Gaomi, who was called, calmed down and tried to show a forced smile: "Kang Zhao is much more beautiful than he was when he was young. As for me, I am not as handsome as him! Comparing them to us when we were young, Are you also afraid of being laughed at?"
I know that this little girl is a fuel-efficient lamp! ! !
We had just passed the door, but we didn't even offer tea to my princess. In front of my princess, I shamed He'er. Isn't that great for turning your back? !
Princess Gaomi secretly resented that she was too lazy to talk to Sheng Weiqiao, so she said bluntly, "It's getting late, why don't we let them salute! After all, we really want to go to the palace, and if we delay for a while, none of them may have time to go to Xinshou tomorrow." The palace."
Although the relationship between the Prince of Gaomi and Empress Dowager Meng was not very good, and Empress Dowager Meng was not the former emperor's official palace, since she became the empress dowager, all the children of the late emperor, including the Prince of Gaomi, also called "Queen Mother" in the scene.
At that time, Rong Suihe was the legitimate son of King Gaomi. After getting married, he naturally asked to take the newly married princess to Xinshou Palace to pay a visit to the "Emperor Grandmother".
After Princess Gaomi gave the order, King Gaomi, who originally wanted to say a few words, gave up the idea and nodded slightly, so Dongren went in and took out the brocade futon. He allowed Suihe and Sheng Weiqiao to straighten their clothes and bowed in front of them. After that, Aunt Zhao personally served the tea in an ebony lacquer tray.
The newlyweds knelt down in front of King Gaomi and his wife in turn. After King Gaomi took the tea, he touched his lips slightly, put the tea bowl down, and said kindly: "Be good."
Princess Gaomi took a sip and said with a stiff face: "We are all good children, and we hope to be good in the future."
The meeting gift was also presented in the blink of an eye. Speaking of that meeting gift, Princess Gaomi was just fine. King Gaomi suddenly felt a pain in his heart: Everyone knows whether the Princess of Mi Zhen County brought gold and silver to marry in. Prince Gaomi's Mansion The betrothal gift alone amounts to millions.
In that case, can I give a small gift to the newlyweds when they serve tea
However, King Gaomi was already suffering from a huge amount of pain when he got hit by mistake. At that time, he felt that he was at a disadvantage even if he took out a few copper coins. He was afraid that the princess would not let him go, and considering that most of the money was lost, then No matter how stingy he is, he can't save much, and he will become the butt of laughter, so he might as well be more generous. He really wants to throw something away to get rid of the son who doesn't like him or the daughter-in-law who doesn't like it!
At this moment, he said in a gentle tone: "Is that Coral Gem Bonsai a mistake? Let's take it and enjoy it!"
The bonsais that the Easterners carefully brought here are all made of jewels and jade, and they are full of flowers. They are made of copper and silver and are made of begonias. The edges of the bonsais are chiselled with gold-plated banana leaves. The pots are good enough for longevity. Pattern. The main body of the bonsai is a peach tree with red coral branches, with emerald leaves, and the leaves are covered with peaches of various colors, including red and yellow beeswax fruits, pink and blue tourmaline fruits, green Jade fruits, red clams and fruits inlaid with special-shaped large pearls, are colorful in red, pink, yellow, blue, green and red.
The left and right sides of the peach tree are engraved with the pattern of phoenix spreading its wings, and the basin seat is covered with strings of coral rice beads, which are exquisite, rare and dazzling.
The other one is called Longevity and Longevity, because the flowerpot and the decorative patterns are all the same, that is, the pot is a pair of peach trees. There are two big bats spreading their wings in the front and back, holding up a cloud surrounded by chiseled gold. There are seven gilded copper-plated little bats between the three layers of peaches, flying in the east next to the peach.
If these two bonsais are put together, it would be a good omen that "you will be blessed with many blessings".
Just Bu Nao…
Sheng Weiqiao pursed her lips and thought to herself: "Were they newlyweds at that time and came to serve tea? Should the greeting gift as usual mean something like a red head and a long life... right?"
For example, Princess Gaomi brought out a golden jade mandarin duck and lotus ribbon ring.
But she didn't have to worry about anything in the past, and she was wrong about that kind of worldliness. Although it was announced that Feng had made up for it temporarily, she didn't understand it half-heartedly. At this moment, something strange happened. She saw Princess Gaomi straightening her body, as if she wanted to speak, to show her seriousness. The look of listening put aside the doubts in my heart.
"When you get married, you become an adult!" Princess Gaomi tried hard to tell herself to be kind and kind. At least in front of Rong Suihe, she couldn't show her displeasure as a new daughter-in-law, but she had been lukewarm before. He said, "He'er, please take good care of Kang Zhao in the future, and Kang Zhao, I also hope to take good care of He'er."
Sheng Weiqiao didn't hear the knock on her mother-in-law's seemingly fair words. Ying Dong heard the words without thinking... Seeing how quickly she responded, Princess Gaomi didn't think she was well-behaved at all. Instead, she felt that it was because she didn't mean what she said at all. Keeping it in mind, Bu Nao suddenly felt angry because he was so perfunctory.
But at that time, Sheng Weiqiao had already followed Rong Suihe to salute Rong Qingzui and his wife. Because they were of the same generation, there was no need to salute, just bow and say Wanfu.
Rong Qingzuo and his wife congratulated their brother and sister-in-law on a pair of gold-boxed jewelry, which was chosen by Mrs. Qi. At that time, Rong Qingzui was very surprised that she missed it. She said that the jewelry could be used by Weiqiao alone, but Rong didn't. For Sleeping Crane's sake, I'm afraid Sleeping Crane will think too much.
But Mrs. Qi curled her lips and said to him: "I can just listen to him with peace of mind! Even if you don't look at the infatuated look on the third brother's head of Kangzhao County, my mother and concubine treat him extremely well, and it's better than not being there." Promise him to marry County Lord Kangzhao! Let’s not say that there are things that County Lord Kangzhao can use as gifts. Let’s make it clear that County Lord Kangzhao was taken into consideration when preparing the gifts. I didn’t think about the third brother. I believe Don’t you believe that your third brother won’t have any objections?”
Although his wife had vowed to do so, Rong Qingzui was a little worried at the moment. Seeing that Rong Suihe did not show any dissatisfaction, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Fuyuan Liuguang and Princess Qingfang came from the east. What they prepared was a camel, coral and silver deer inlaid with treasures. It was also an ornament. Although it was not as magnificent and jewel-like as the bonsai given by King Gaomi, it was still of extraordinary value, which fully demonstrated its value. Miszhen County Prince's attention.
Because Rong Qingzui and Princess Huihe didn't show up... It's not surprising that Princess Huihe didn't show up. The princess left the cabinet in the eastern half of last year. She left the cabinet in a very low-key manner, and many people didn't know about it.
So much so that when Sheng Weiqiao prepared a meeting gift for her husband's family, he prepared one for her.
After getting ready, I confirmed the number of people with Rong Suihe, and was told that Princess Huihe had already resigned from the cabinet, and her husband's family was not in Chang'an, so there was a 100% chance that he would not attend their wedding, so the "kissing" ceremony was not necessary. It's up to her to beg.
As for Rong Qingzui's absence, Sheng Weiqiao could not guess that the second son of Gaomi Palace was deeply ostracized by Cuo Cuo so far. Bu Nao Cuo did not have a good impression of him, so he would not ask him in a disrespectful manner.
So at this moment, the newlyweds had not seen their elders and peers, and were allowed to go to the east, where a group of juniors came to see them.
The juniors lined up according to their age, headed by Lord Jian'an who had already met in the new house last night, and came one by one to kowtow and salute.
I don't know if I have seen the scene of the new aunt slapping Yuan Donglai. Sheng Weiqiao, like the Qi family, was in awe. The Jian'an County Lord's attitude was more respectful than last night, and he was almost frightened.
After the eldest niece, according to her age, she is Huaiyuan Hou Shizi Yuankai.
Because of Yuan Donglai's behavior, Sheng Weiqiao said wrongly that Yuan Kai didn't have any grudges, so when he saw him walking in, even though Yuan Kai didn't have a bowl of hot three-fresh osmanthus soup in his legs at that time, Sheng Weiqiao Ye Dong consciously raised his guard and stared at his movements carefully.
Yuan Kai had just been warned by his father Yan. Although he had a cold face at that time, he bowed and called people in a decent manner. After receiving the greeting, he returned behind Yuan Liuguang without saying a word. Not enthusiastic, but not rude either.
Seeing this, both Rong Qingzu and his wife breathed a sigh of relief. Neither of them wanted to go through any trouble. They were most afraid that Yuan Kaixin would hurt his sister and make a fuss in public, which would make everyone unable to stand up: because what happened last night was really hard to resolve. Housework, if you look into it, you can even trace it back to last year's Chongwu Banquet. Even if you don't go that far, let's talk about last night. It's true that Yuan Donglai tried to scald his aunt with hot soup, but Sheng Weiqiao slapped and threatened the maid. The niece who is less than ten years old is really unbecoming of an elder.
I want to say that this kind of thing should be dealt with fairly... Then it really depends on the fairness of one or a few people. Basically, there is no way to convince both parties. Is there a big possibility that this will make Rong Suihe miss the original Gaomi Palace? The little sense of belonging is exhausted.
"Then, it's time for us to go to the palace." The Gaomi King and his wife obviously did not intend to mention the conflict between Yuan Donglai and Sheng Weiqiao last night at this moment. Seeing the youngest Rong Lingsui bowing and retreating, the princess said, "Although the Queen Mother is not our direct grandmother, she is still the biological mother of the Emperor. She deserves to leave because of emotions and reasons."
Rong Suihe and Sheng Weiqiao had no objections, and after they both agreed to Dong, they resigned.
After they left, the princess stood up and ordered Princess Qingfang and her family: "Let's follow him!"
King Gaomi slowly stood up, hesitated, and finally followed.
