As soon as Han Yunxi called out for grievances, Rui'er, who didn't know why, immediately followed suit, "Father, Queen Mother is wronged!"
These words made Han Yunxi almost laugh, this son is indeed his own!
"Why have you been wronged?" Long Feiye asked.
"Your Majesty, I don't know whether my concubine is worthy of being a queen or the mother of the prince. However, the concubine organizes the first birthday banquet for the prince without extravagance and waste, and ignores the victims of the disaster."
Before Han Yunxi could finish speaking, Baili Yuanlong interrupted angrily, "Empress, everyone has a table of delicacies at today's banquet, and one person's meal can fill ten people's stomachs! What is this if it's not extravagance and waste?" ? There are ordinary people and soldiers who have no homes to return to, and it is not easy to even have a full meal. Your whole pot of chicken soup only needs a few sips of soup. Haha, is this really a waste? This It's a waste of money!"
Han Yunxi looked at Baili Yuanlong and asked coldly, "Is there anything else?"
Baili Yuanlong sneered, "Empress, today's banquet is a big deal. Could it be that the empress doesn't think it's a waste?"
Just when everyone was surprised that Han Yunxi would argue with reason, Han Yunxi admitted loudly. She said, "Master Baili said it very well! There is a natural disaster in the north, and it is a big mistake for my palace to hold a big banquet, a big mistake!"
For a moment, everyone was stunned and thought they heard it wrong.
In the silence of the crowd, under the gaze of everyone, Han Yunxi led Xiao Rui'er to stand up and walked in front of Long Feiye. Nanny Zhao and Mu Linger, who had been hidden all this time, finally showed up. They came out from the left and right sides, standing on the left and right sides of Han Yunxi and Ruier.
Mu Linger personally opened the lids of all the tableware on Long Feiye's table, and the kneeling people couldn't see what was in the pots and bowls, so they didn't know why.
With a smile on her face, Mu Linger and Mother Zhao brought down those pots and bowls one by one, and showed them to the ministers.
I saw that all the pots and bowls were filled with clear soup with spices and little water, not to mention fish, even a tea leaf could not be found.
For a moment, all the ministers, whether they were kneeling or sitting in their original positions, were dumbfounded. Baili Yuanlong and Baili Lixiang were dumbfounded, as if their acupuncture points had been tapped, and they couldn't even move their eyes. And the members of the Xiao family all had very ugly faces.
Who would have thought that a table of hot and delicious meals would look like this!
Han Yunxi... this is clearly trying to play tricks on them!
Was Han Yunxi playing tricks on them on purpose? It can only be said that these people are too self-righteous! Han Yunxi didn't have such a free time, she had enough to eat! She just took this opportunity to give some people a final warning.
Mother Zhao brought the pot of fragrant chicken soup herself, and Han Yunxi said, "Prince, help your father make the soup."
Rui'er was very obedient, and brought an empty bowl with both hands, and Han Yunxi scooped up a tablespoon of chicken soup and put it into the bowl. Rui'er carefully held the chicken soup and put it on the table.
He didn't say anything, and as the queen mother walked to Baili Yuanlong's position, Mammy Zhao immediately followed, holding chicken soup, and Mu Linger followed closely, and put Baili Yuanlong in front of everyone. All cutlery on the table is open.
A table is delicious, but there are no fish, fruits and vegetables, only clear soup with spices and little water. Baili Yuanlong couldn't believe it, nor could he accept this fact.
He looked over, but the facts were all in front of him. Rui'er personally brought an empty bowl, and Han Yunxi scooped up another tablespoon of chicken soup.
Everyone who was shocked by this scene was very puzzled. They couldn't figure out Han Yunxi's intentions, and they didn't dare to figure it out. Starting from Baili Yuanlong, all the way down, with the assistance of Zhao Nanny and Mu Linger, Han Yunxi and Ruier opened all the tableware of all the ministers who left the table and left a tablespoon of chicken soup for them.
After walking around, they finally returned to Long Feiye, and the chicken soup had already bottomed out. Madam Zhao said respectfully that the pot of stewed chicken and herbs was placed on Long Feiye's table.
Zhao Nanny and Mu Ling'er retreated, Han Yunxi led Rui'er and knelt back again.
Everyone watched the mother and son's every move quietly. Undoubtedly, even a small move by them was enough to set off a storm in everyone's hearts!
Han Yunxi said earnestly, "Your Majesty, the gift of the crown prince's first birthday is a great gift and cannot be discarded! What is a gift? My concubine thinks that it is a gift to share happiness with the people, and it is also a gift to share suffering with the people! Today, there is a natural disaster in the north, and the people are suffering. The ceremony of the banquet is the gift of sharing suffering with the people! Today at the banquet, the ministers and concubines only ordered the fire room to prepare a pot of whole chicken soup for the emperor and other ministers, so as to tell the world that our royal family and the court are all concerned about the suffering of the people, and we will always I miss the disaster victims in the north."
Long Feiye nodded earnestly, while Han Yunxi's Baili Yuanlong Yidang and Xiao Jiadang more than a dozen high-ranking officials and officials were basically sweating, their limbs were weak, and their hearts were even weaker! Baili Yuanlong's face was so pale that it was indescribable, and Baili Lixiang's expression of astonishment just now was still stiff on her face, and it took a long time to recover!
However, many ministers who were kneeling showed joy on their faces, and they respected the queen again.
Han Yunxi's next words were once again beyond everyone's expectations, and Baili Yuanlong's party and Xiao's party were even more caught off guard.
Han Yunxi said, "Your Majesty, the ministers and concubines recently obtained food spices from Mu Linger. Therefore, they used the spices to cook soup and took advantage of the Prince's birthday banquet to test all the ministers. The ministers and concubines privately think that anyone who dares to leave the banquet today to speak out Admonishers are all loyal ministers who care about the common people."
This…
Is Han Yunxi rewarding them? Don't you hold them accountable for slandering the queen
Baili Yuanlong looked at Xiao An, and Xiao An also looked at him, the two of them were even more scared!
If Han Yunxi were to hold them accountable for the slander, they could still plead that those who did not know were not guilty, and they could still show their integrity by saying that they would rather die than speak out.
But!
Han Yunxi actually played such a trick, and rewarded them
This is so disturbing!
What kind of trick is Han Yunxi going to play
Not to mention Baili Yuanlong, even the scheming Xiao An had to admit that he couldn't see through the Queen's tricks.
I don't know the enemy, how to fight? How to win
At this moment, Baili Yuanlong and Xiao An were truly afraid, and they were afraid of Han Yunxi from the bottom of their hearts.
It was at this time that Baili Lixiang came to her senses, and her head was a little dazed. This woman who played cards out of common sense had disrupted all her plans and arrangements!
Apart from kneeling, she didn't know what would happen next and what to do.
Some of the kneeling people were terrified, while others were happy. And the person sitting in the original position is also in a bad mood. Those who knew the truth naturally wouldn't be afraid, and those who didn't know might not be less afraid than Baili Yuanlong and Xiao An.
Although the empress only said that the people kneeling down were upright and good ministers, she didn't say anything about the people sitting there! However, in comparison, they have become those who are wise and protect their lives, and even help the evildoers!
A one-year-old banquet, an empty table, almost touched the position and style of the ministers!
"Let's all sit down!" Long Feiye said coldly.
After the queen and the crown prince stood up and entered the table, all the ministers thanked the emperor and got up and returned to their seats.
Long Feiye picked up the bowl with only one mouthful of chicken soup, and said with a smile, "This is the best soup I've ever had since I became the throne."
He drank it all in one gulp, "Everyone, please try it!"
People who had chicken soup stood up and took their bowls to drink, while those who didn't get chicken soup also stood up, but most of them looked embarrassed.
After drinking the chicken soup, everyone thought that Long Feiye would attack those wise and self-protecting people, but Long Feiye didn't.
This incident seems to have passed like this, and everyone is incredible.
Baili Yuanlong and Xiao An couldn't believe that the emperor and empress would give up so easily. Baili Lixiang suddenly remembered something, and quickly winked at a little eunuch beside her. The little eunuch nodded and hurriedly retreated.
However, as soon as he reached the door, he was stopped by Xu Donglin.
"Where are you going in a hurry?" Xu Donglin asked.
"Slave... Slave, go and relieve yourself." The little eunuch's lips and teeth were trembling.
"Master, I just want to go too, let's go together." Xu Donglin said.
The little eunuch's panic was all over his face, he timidly followed Xu Donglin to the latrine and then came back.
"Is there anything else?" Xu Donglin asked.
"No, no, no more." The little eunuch shook his head.
"Then go back and serve. The empress is the one who nodded her head. Whoever dares to run away halfway will be a serious crime!" Xu Donglin warned coldly. The little eunuch almost scrambled back.
It takes time for things in the palace to spread to the outside world, and it needs to pass through a lot of people. The extravagance and waste of this first birthday party has been revealed. However, the people making trouble outside the palace don't know about it!
The little eunuch just helped Baili Lixiang spread a message, and now the message has been sent to those troubled scholars.
God knows what they're going to do!
The little eunuch came to the hall and wanted to wink at Baili Lixiang, but unfortunately, Baili Lixiang never looked back. At this time, the audience was silent, and the prince was about to start to catch Zhou.
The wide table was filled with various things, a total of sixty-six kinds, including seals, various scriptures, pens, ink, paper, inkstone, abacus, coins, account books, food, toys, etc. Rui'er was standing in front of the table, looking at a table of things.
Everyone knows that the prince is early wisdom, and even if the prince is not early wisdom, the queen will train him to only grasp the seal before he catches the week.
Therefore, everyone doesn't care what the prince will catch. Everyone's minds were still on the matter just now, and those wise and safe people were all speculating about how the emperor would deal with them. As for Baili Yuanlong's party and Xiao An's party, they are still panicking and speculating about what Han Yunxi wants to do.
It was just a dinner party, and everyone was so hungry and scared, it was physically and mentally exhausting!
However, Han Yunxi, Long Feiye, and Gu Qishao all looked at Xiao Rui'er, looking forward to it.
Han Yunxi didn't tell Xiao Ruier what to take, but Long Feiye told Xiao Ruirui to take whatever she likes. If Rui'er doesn't like the seal and doesn't want to succeed in the future, he will be free with Rui'er. Anyway, Han Yunxi is still young, so she can always add some brothers to Rui'er.
The reason why everyone is looking forward to it is that firstly, they really don’t know what Rui’er will get, and secondly...
Han Yunxi had a bet with Long Feiye, Gu Qishao had a bet with Gu Beiyue, and Tang Lize had a bet with Tranquility!
The whole hall is exhausted physically and mentally, panicked, and the civil and military officials who are all hanging in the air, if they know that the masters have leisure time to gamble, how will everyone feel
Ruier, what will you catch
