Hua Yan ate a lot under the loving gaze of the Queen Mother, and after the meal, she lazily lay back on the bed.
The queen mother asked her if she could sleep for a while, Huayan shook her head, and the queen mother also sat on the couch and talked to her. Naturally, the two talked about things that Huayan should pay attention to when she is pregnant now, and about raising children in the future.
Naturally, Huayan also liked to talk about such topics, so she smiled and said to the queen mother, "Since I was pregnant, I have been vomiting so much every day, I can't get up, otherwise I really want to make two small clothes with my own hands."
The Queen Mother smiled and said, "Don't worry, you haven't been in two months, maybe you won't vomit so badly later. Although the Ai family doesn't want you to be tired, the clothes made by my mother are naturally different from others. The best thing is, when Aijia was pregnant, the little clothes she made for the emperor are still there, and the little clothes the queen made for the prince are still there."
Huayan laughed, "Can I still wear it?"
"Yes." The queen mother smiled, "Aijia is kept in a good place, and when the little one is born, I will also take it out for him to wear."
Huayan nodded, "It is said that eating a hundred kinds of food and wearing a hundred kinds of clothes is the best way to support yourself."
The Queen Mother laughed and said, "The Ai family will tell the wives of each mansion to send some cloth strips from the mansion so that Yuyifang can make a few Baijia clothes."
Huayan nodded, "That's good, I'm here to thank Grandmother."
The Queen Mother smiled and patted her, "It's not a matter of labor or labor, as long as you give birth to your child safely, mourn your family and hug your great-grandson, you will be satisfied. Don't ask for anything else."
Huayan smiled and said, "Don't worry, it will."
The two talked for a while, and the queen mother said to Hua Yan, "Close your eyes and rest for a while, the palace banquet is tiring."
Huayan nodded and closed her eyes.
Yun Chi heard that Huayan had vomited again in Ninghe Palace, so he was worried, so he came to pick Huayan himself before the palace banquet.
Seeing him walking in a hurry, the Queen Mother said with a smile, "You, why are you so anxious? Your daughter-in-law is here at Ai's house. Don't worry if something happens. Although she vomited badly, she also ate something and is fine." .”
Seeing that Huayan was asleep, her breathing was steady, and she was indeed in good health, Yun Chi breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "The grandson naturally believes in the emperor's grandmother, but it's just that the palace banquet is coming soon, so come and pick her up."
The Queen Mother smiled, "Everyone says that girl Yan is blessed, and the Ai family thinks it is true. The Ai family has watched you since childhood, and now loves your daughter-in-law so much. It is better than the previous emperor, and also better than the emperor. Great grandfather I didn't marry the queen, otherwise, I would be about the same as you."
Yun Chi smiled, and didn't want to mention Grandpa Tai, so he didn't answer, and reached out to pat Huayan gently, "Yan'er, wake up."
He yelled twice before Huayan said "Ugh" and woke up in a daze. With her eyes still open, she put her arms around Yunchi's neck and said softly, "You're back."
Yun Chi couldn't help laughing, "The palace banquet is coming soon, you slept really hard at the imperial grandmother's place, did you forget why you came to the palace?"
Huayan stayed in a daze for a while before she woke up. She slowly opened her eyes and looked at Yunchi. From the corner of her eye, she saw the Queen Mother looking at them cheerfully. She blushed and relaxed a little embarrassedly. Kai Yunchi's neck, sat up, "I fell asleep."
The queen mother is an elder after all, although Hua Yan has a thick skin, she is too embarrassed to act coquettishly with Yun Chi in front of others.
Yun Chi smiled lowly, and stretched out his arms to hug her, "You are sweating from sleep, wake up for a while, let's go to the palace banquet."
Huayan nodded, very obedient.
The queen mother looked at Zhile, "Pregnant women are prone to fatigue and lethargy, which is normal. Aijia is very happy to be able to sleep so comfortably in Aijia's palace. You don't have to worry about it in front of Aijia, and you can do whatever you want."
Huayan nodded with a smile. Since the Queen Mother wanted to open it, she really took good care of her and treated her well, and she is also cute.
Yun Chi stayed with Huayan in Ninghe Palace for a while, and when Huayan sweated off, she dressed her properly and wrapped her tightly before accompanying her out of Ninghe Palace.
The Empress Dowager was also with the two of them, no matter how good they looked at each other, the smile on her face never faded.
There was snow in the sky, not too big or too small, but extremely cold.
The palace banquet was held in the Chongyun Hall. The emperor, the civil and military ministers and their families had arrived, the princes and princesses had also attended the banquet, and the high-ranking concubines in the harem were also well-dressed. There were thousands of people in the huge hall.
"The Empress Dowager arrives, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince arrives, and the Crown Princess arrives"
Accompanied by a sound of singing, the Queen Mother, Yun Chi, and Hua Yan entered the hall.
Huayan glanced at it, and there was a whole hall of people, who were seated according to their grades. She saw the important officials of the court headed by Zhao Zaifu, Anyang King, Wuweihou, and Jing Guogong, as well as Su Zizhan, An Shuli and Mei Shuyu are the powerful upstarts in the court, as well as the courtiers and family members who have never met her face to face.
Everyone dressed brightly, gathered in the hall
Church.
After paying their respects, everyone's eyes fell on Huayan.
Huayan's complexion is not as good as it was when she came to Ninghe Palace today after she suffered from pregnancy vomiting in Ninghe Palace, but her complexion is alluring. She matched Yunchi so well, it was secretly surprising, but also not too surprising, Huayan should be like this, the crown princess chosen by His Royal Highness should be like this, and the future mother of Nanchu should also be like this.
After the three of them were seated, the emperor said something to the queen mother, Yun Chi, and Hua Yan, and then smiled and ordered the banquet to begin. The eunuchs and maids brought plates of delicacies from mountains and seas to the table. Amid the fragrance of the food, the dancers came out in a file, and the sound of silk and bamboo orchestras suddenly sounded.
Some ministers came forward to toast and congratulated the New Year. The emperor was weak and could not drink too much. Yun Chi had to take care of Hua Yan, so naturally he did not dare to drink too much, so he drank two glasses appropriately, and then pushed the fifth prince to the table. to drink instead of him.
The fifth prince looked at Yunchi and Huayan, and could only accept the job resignedly.
Hua Yan pursed her lips and smiled, and said to Yun Chi, "Actually, I can drink a little."
"No." Yun Chi shook his head.
Hua Yan whispered again, "It doesn't matter if you drink more."
"No." Yun Chi still shook his head.
Huayan shut her mouth.
The courtiers and family members couldn't let go at first, and as Su Zizhan, An Shuli, and Mei Shuyu accepted everyone's toast without hesitation, it gradually became lively.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Yun Chi asked Huayan, "Can I bear it?"
Huayan looked at it with relish, "I can bear it, it's pretty good, and I don't feel uncomfortable."
Yun Chi knew that she was lively, so he smiled and stopped talking.
Huayan couldn't take it anymore, the emperor couldn't take it first, said he was dizzy, and asked everyone to drink as much as they wanted, and left the table early.
Although the queen mother was old, she was very energetic, and told Xiao Lizi to take good care of the emperor, so she still sat at the palace banquet.
Not long after the emperor left, when the crowd was bustling, a young eunuch hurriedly ran over with a pale face, "Your Highness, the emperor was halfway there, and suddenly passed out. Mr. Li ordered the slaves to come to His Highness."
As soon as his voice came out, the commotion of the crowd stopped instantly, and several court ministers all stood up.
Yun Chi also stood up immediately, and asked, "What's the matter with the imperial physician?"
The little eunuch was about to cry, "I don't know, the emperor is foaming at the mouth, and my father-in-law, little Li, has passed on the imperial physician."
Yun Chi stepped up to leave, thinking of Hua Yan, reached out and held her hand, "Go, see father."
Hua Yan followed Yun Chi out of Chongyun Palace, saw that he was impatient to take care of her, and didn't dare to go too fast, so she said to him, "You go first, go and have a look, I..." She was about to say that I would follow, afraid Yun Chi was worried, and from the corner of his eye, he saw Su Zizhan who had already left the Chongyun Palace, and said to him, "Zi Zhan will accompany me there."
If he is worried about handing her over to others, Su Zizhan should be at ease.
Yun Chi also saw Su Zizhan, and seeing that he was approaching, he said to him, "You stay with her, please take care of her carefully, and don't make any mistakes."
Su Zi nodded, "Go quickly."
Yun Chi let go of Huayan's hand, and walked quickly towards the main hall of the emperor, Xiao Zhongzi hurriedly followed Yun Chi.
Accompanied by Huayan, Caiqing watched the queen mother and courtiers hurrying towards the main hall of the emperor, and whispered to Huayan, "Crown princess, be careful and walk slowly."
Huayan nodded, and ordered as she walked, "Don't follow me. There is a son here. You can go to the sky. The father suddenly fainted and foamed at the mouth. It's really unusual. The imperial doctors are probably unreliable. Let the sky never stop watching."
Caiqing hesitated, and glanced at Su Zizhan, "Your Majesty has already ordered you to take care of the Crown Princess, and let the hidden guards invite you."
Huayan suddenly realized that she was in the palace now to avoid suspicion. Yun Chi handed her over to Su Zi to cut her. She couldn't leave her alone, so as not to spread bad words. She nodded and said to the secret, "Seventeen, you go, Hurry up."
An Shiqi had been secretly protecting Huayan, glanced at Su Zizhan, turned around and left.
Huayan walked forward, and said to Su Zizhan, "What do you think about today's incident, could it be that the people behind couldn't deal with Yun Chi and me, and instead attacked the emperor? Tonight is New Year's Eve, so I really know how to choose my time."
Su Zizhan snorted.
Huayan was thinking in her heart, guessing what happened today, but she didn't see what happened to the emperor, and she couldn't think of a reason, so she gave up and walked for a while, she suddenly felt that something was wrong, she stopped suddenly, There was a sudden chill in my heart, and the cold air rushed from my feet to my heart.
Just as she stopped walking, Su Zizhan beside her sneered, "It's a pity I found out, it's too late."
