"Your Majesty, the emperor is so kind to you. Please look at this box of jewels as a gift." Qing Xi's eyes were shining, looking at the strings of pearls and emeralds in the box, she couldn't close her mouth with a smile.
Song Ziyan walked over, knocked on the girl's head, glanced at the jewels in the box, and said with a smile: "You haven't seen how the emperor treats the eldest prince, it's not good for me, but I don't I know what the emperor is planning in his heart."
Qing Luo said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the Emperor must like you."
Song Ziyan grabbed a string of pearls in the box and glanced at them. The things Yu Chuhong gave her seemed to be for coping purposes, so he threw the pearls back into the box. Song Ziyan turned to Qingluo and asked, "Your Majesty treats me well?" Is it clear? "
Qing Luo was still surprised to hear Song Ziyan ask this question, looked at Song Ziyan with a puzzled face, and replied: "Of course, you have only been in the palace for so long, and the emperor has already made you Concubine Yan."
"You only saw this, and the rest of the people in the harem probably only saw this." The smile on Song Ziyan's face gradually disappeared, and she said bitterly: "If the emperor really treats this palace well, it is absolutely impossible. It will push Ben Gong to the cusp of this storm. It was like this when I entered the palace. Among so many beautiful women, the emperor chose Ben Gong. At that time, Ben Gong thought that the emperor had taken a fancy to Ben Gong, but you and After staying with me for so long, why have you ever seen me serve as a servant?"
"This...isn't the one that His Majesty has been passed down in the harem...can't it?" Qing Xie whispered.
"I don't know if it's okay or not." Song Ziyan walked to the side table and sat down, stretched out her hand to straighten the crooked steps on her head, and said with Qingyu: "In the past, I thought that the emperor was putting me in the wrong place." It was someone's shield, that's why I held this palace in front, but later I found out that if the emperor really dotes on someone, he will never wrong that person. Probably like treating the eldest prince, Hold that person in the palm of your hand and give him thousands of pets, and you will definitely not let him get hurt."
"But which concubine in this harem is not living a wronged life, even the concubine Xian who covered the sky with one hand in the harem before, was moved out of the palace by the emperor's random decree in the end."
"I don't ask for anything now, I just want to spend my whole life in this harem in peace and stability, which is regarded as God's mercy."
"Ma'am!"
Looking at the little girl who was anxiously stomping her feet, Song Ziyan suddenly smiled again. She waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, this is pretty good, isn't it?"

Time flew by, and it was Mid-Autumn Festival again in a blink of an eye. This year's Mid-Autumn Festival, Yu Chuhong was particularly happy. The specific performance was that he held a palace banquet on the Mid-Autumn Festival night for the first time in these years, and directly hosted civil and military officials of the third rank and above. Officials, and agreed to bring a family member.
Bai Xiyu didn't come with Yu Chuhong in the evening. The two of them had so much fun yesterday with their two little babies that Yu Chuhong didn't do anything serious. Now he is busy reviewing the papers on the table With that pile of memorials, Bai Xiyu didn't want to stay in the imperial study to disturb him, and it was too boring to stay alone in Shenghe Palace, so he changed his clothes and went to Jiaotai Palace before him. He came early, and there were only There were only a few people who came here sparsely, and when they saw him, they all got up and called out to His Highness.
Bai Xiyu nodded, which was regarded as a greeting, and then he looked around, and saw rows of small tables neatly arranged in the entire Jiaotai Hall, and a pot of tea and a few plates of almond bergamot were placed on each table, Desserts like crispy apples.
There was a musician playing festive music in the corner, surrounded by bright lights, and the arrangement of the seats at the palace banquet was still the same as in previous years, but it was precisely because it was the same as in previous years that the problem was even more serious—there was no place for him here.
In the past when he was stupid, he always sat next to Yu Chuhong, but in fact that was not a place for a prince to sit, and he didn't know whether it was Yu Chuhong's intention or the lack of intention of the palace people. Arrange another location for Bai Xiyu.
Bai Xiyu stood by His Highness for a long time, and he couldn't stand like this all the time, but if he sat in someone else's place and waited until the Lord arrived, he would be very embarrassed. After thinking about it again and again, Bai Xiyu decided that it should be the same as in previous years. He stepped directly to the seat next to the chief seat.
The other people in the Jiaotai Palace watched the First Prince stand by His Highness for a long time, and then stepped up to sit on the upper seat. Although these people felt that the First Prince's move was inappropriate, they did not dare to say anything.
Bai Xiyu sat alone on the seat, while listening to the little song, while clasping the table with his hands to beat the time, he was having a good time.
The number of people in Jiaotai Hall gradually increased. These people found their seats and quickly settled down. Then they raised their heads and saw Bai Xiyu sitting above them, and started talking among themselves.
It was supposed to be where the empress or the favorite concubine sat. In the past, the eldest prince was a fool, and the emperor didn't trust him, so it was understandable for him to be in front of him, and everyone would not care about anything with a fool. But now that the eldest prince's brain has recovered, how can he still sit in that position.
"Your Highness, it's inappropriate for you to sit in this position." Finally, a minister couldn't stand it anymore, and stood up and took a step forward to remind Bai Xiyu.
Bai Xiyu raised his eyes and glanced at the minister. He was about 40 or 50 years old, and he was wearing a first-rank official robe. However, he hadn't stayed in court for a long time, so he couldn't recognize who the person in front of him was. Immediately He let out a sound, stood up directly from his seat, and sighed: "This hall also feels inappropriate, but I don't know where this lord thinks this hall should sit?"
The official didn't expect the eldest prince to be so eloquent, and he froze in place for a moment. When he realized, Bai Xiyu had already got off the seat and stopped in front of him.
Currently used, it is the most complete and best-used app for listening to books. It integrates 4 major speech synthesis engines, over 100 kinds of timbres, and is an artifact that supports offline reading. huanyuanapp.org
The official looked around, hoping that a colleague could help him at this critical juncture, but several officials who were close to him all shook their hands at him, expressing that they were powerless.
Bai Xiyu wanted to tease the person in front of him, so he asked: "Are you looking for a good place for this hall?"
This official was also stubborn enough, he still didn't give up at this moment, his eyes turned around in the hall again, and finally his gaze stopped on Song Ziyan, who was sitting on the lower left side of Chuhong, and the second prince was sitting opposite However, if Bai Xiyu was allowed to sit there, it would be fine.
The official said: "Why don't Your Highness exchange places with Concubine Yan?"
"This hall also thinks that Concubine Yan's place is pretty good." Bai Xiyu nodded, with a smile on his face, Song Ziyan was surrounded by beauties, it was indeed much better than him on top.
Song Ziyan naturally also heard the conversation between the two, she quickly stood up and said with a smile: "Your Highness is joking with Lord Liu, how can I be able to go up to the top?"
How dare she sit in that position? Although that position is the dream of a harem woman, the only one sitting there these years is the eldest prince. If Yu Chuhong came to see where she was sitting, her life would be uncertain. I can keep it.
Seeing Song Ziyan's refusal, Master Liu's two eyebrows were about to knit together.
At this time, someone stood up from the other side and suggested, "Why don't we add another table next to the second prince."
Bai Xiyu raised his eyebrows, and looked at the man with a half-smile. The man was about the same age as the Master Liu in front of him, and he was wearing a first-grade official uniform, but Bai Xiyu still didn't recognize him. "Alright." He nodded, summoned two palace servants and added another table next to Yu Wenyuan.
After Master Liu returned to his seat, he quickly thanked the man. He cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Brother Shangguan."
The official surnamed Shangguan shook his hand and said to him: "Thank you, you should change your temper quickly, then His Highness can sit wherever he wants, as long as the emperor doesn't blame him, will it be fine soon?"
Master Liu sighed: "It's been most of my life, and I can't change it. I can't help but say it when I see this."
"You!"
Bai Xiyu sat in the newly changed seat, and didn't feel any discomfort. He closed his eyes and listened to the song as before.
"Brother Huang?" Yu Wenyuan came to the front of Jiaotai Hall and saw Bai Xiyu sitting next to him. He was taken aback and asked Bai Xiyu, "Why are you sitting here?"
Bai Xiyu opened his eyes, glanced at Yu Wenyuan, and said with a smile, "Where can I sit if I don't sit here?"
Yu Wenyuan sat down beside him, and replied, "Of course it's next to Father."
Bai Xiyu laughed again: "That's where the queen sits."
Yu Wenyuan shook his head, even if Yu Chuhong had a queen, he probably wouldn't be more favored than his imperial brother.
He asked, "Didn't you always sit there before?"
Just as Bai Xiyu was about to answer, he saw Yu Chuhong already standing outside the hall. Immediately afterwards, the eunuch shouted loudly: "The emperor has arrived—"
All the officials knelt down one after another, shouting long live three times: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live—"
Bai Xiyu and Yu Wenyuan knelt down to salute, and said in unison: "I pay homage to my father."
Yu Chuhong went to the hall and sat down. He was not in a hurry to get the officials up, but looked at Bai Xiyu and asked, "Why are you sitting there?"
Bai Xiyu raised his head, looked at Yu Chuhong, blinked, and said nothing.
"Come up."
As soon as Yu Chuhong's words fell, and Bai Xiyu hadn't moved yet, Mr. Liu couldn't hold back his own heart that was about to die. Regardless of Brother Shangguan who had been pulling his clothes, he raised his head and said: " Your majesty, how can the eldest prince sit by your side?"
"En." Yu Chuhong nodded, and then waved to Bai Xiyu: "Come here, Xiaobai."
Many officials and concubines who were present quietly raised their heads to look at the famous drama in front of them, Lord Liu lived up to everyone's expectations and still did not give up, shouting: "Your Majesty!"
"Anything else?" Yu Chuhong glanced at him.
"Your Majesty, it is unreasonable for the eldest prince to sit beside you!"
"I know." Yu Chuhong withdrew his gaze from looking at Mr. Yu, and then urged Bai Xiyu: "Don't dawdle, come quickly."
Bai Xiyu looked at Yu Chuhong's natural expression, and suddenly felt a little sympathetic to that Master Liu. (83 Chinese.83.)
