"My son hasn't said anything yet." King Ying kept his voice extremely low for fear that others might hear him.
"If you don't say it, I also know what you're thinking." Concubine Xian took a deep breath, and in the eyes of the public, even if she was scolding her son, she had to maintain the most perfect smile.
King Ying was stunned. He looked at Concubine Xian's face and couldn't pick out the wrong smile. After a moment of silence, he stood up straight: "Erchen understands, Erchen retire."
"Sister, Ming Hao is really filial to you. The first thing I do when I come in is to greet you." Concubine Rong glanced at King Ning, who was sitting on the chair opposite, bowing his head to eat, and sighed.
No wonder she wanted to rush with Concubine Xian to give birth to the eldest son of the emperor, but before the delivery period came, she drank the medicine to induce labor. The child born can neither compete with the British King Ji Minghao in martial arts, nor with the fifth prince Ji Yanqiu in talent, let alone with the prince who is both civil and military.
When Concubine Xian heard Concubine Rong's words, she laughed dryly. In my heart, I thought, filial piety.
She turned her head to look at Hua Liuli, who was brought by the prince to the queen mother. She was weak and beautiful, and she also had the coquettish charm of her family. If this is her own daughter, she may be very partial to her.
But she is not, such a woman, even if she puts aside her troublesome background, she is not suitable to be a princess.
"Grandmother, the grandson has brought over the little girl you like." The prince stuffed Hua Liuli with the queen mother and talked with her for a while, until Emperor Changlong came, and then got up to salute Emperor Changlong.
On occasions like this, in order to show their filial piety, the princes would prepare gifts for the queen mother and the emperor. Fortunately, there is no queen in the palace, otherwise they would have to prepare an extra gift.
In this regard, the princes are very grateful to the emperor's father.
Of course, if the emperor's father is willing to make his mother-in-law the queen, they will be more grateful.
The eldest King Ying is still the Jin Guanyin Jade Buddha and the like. Over the years, he has been deeply in love with the gifts made of gold and jade.
What kind of coral tree did King Ning give
Hua Liuli was very skeptical about what the fourth prince gave, which meant auspiciousness, because the prince wanted to save money, because she heard that the fourth prince's grandfather's family was not very rich.
The fifth prince gave a hand-made painting. Hua Liuli glanced at the faces of the ministers. Their expressions were very calm, as if they had long been accustomed to the gift-giving style of princes.
"The county master." Iris whispered to Hua Liuli by squatting next to the action of peeling fruit for Hua Liuli, "I heard that the fifth prince has a hobby."
Hua Liuli raised her eyebrows and motioned Iris to continue.
"The fifth prince especially likes to paint, and he is very confident in his painting skills. It is said that someone said last year that the fifth prince's painting was not very good. A rare painting genius, the Fifth Prince spared him."
Hua Liuli looked at the handsome fifth prince in the crowd, she really did not expect that the other party would have such quirks. She suddenly became a little curious about the paintings made by the fifth prince.
The queen mother noticed that Hua Liuli was staring at the pile of gift boxes in front of her, thinking she was curious about these things, and waved to her.
After Hua Liuli came over, the queen mother whispered: "There's nothing to see, these things change the soup every year instead of the medicine." But what can be done, it's her grandson who gives gifts, even if she doesn't like it, she's afraid To hurt their hearts, not only have to boast, but also put these things out in the palace.
Fortunately, she only has five grandchildren and three granddaughters in total. If there are more, she is afraid that Shoukang Palace will not have a place to put it.
"Prince congratulates you."
As the eunuch sang and remembered, the queen mother turned her attention to her grandson standing in front of the emperor.
The prince gave the emperor several crops to increase production. The emperor was happy to drink one more glass of wine. When he wanted to drink the second one, he was persuaded by the prince.
The empress dowager received a variety of fabrics. Although it was only a gift list, the various introductions about the fabrics had already made the empress dowager smile.
Looking at the items on the gift list, Hua Liuli seemed to understand why the queen mother was more close to the prince. For the Empress Dowager, gold, silver and jade wares are easy to obtain, which is really rare.
The prince doesn't care what others think of him when he sees all the fabrics he gave, because he knows what the queen mother likes. And other princes wanted to let outsiders see his filial piety and sincerity.
If she were a grandmother, she would probably like to take care of her favorite grandchildren too.
After the other concubines learned that the prince gave the queen mother all kinds of fabrics, they all felt that the prince had been carried away a little over the years. It was clear that there was no careful preparation, and only at the end did he find a pile of fabrics to deal with perfunctory.
Can the empress dowager lack that little fabric
However, those kinds of seeds that have been selected and cultivated are interesting. There are many capable people in the Prince's House, and other princes can't be like the prince. There are a lot of subordinate ministers who can make suggestions for him openly, but the prince has taken advantage of it.
After giving the New Year's gift, it is the process of courtiers boasting that the prince is actually raising the emperor. In this regard, the officials present are all professional, and there are even talented people who wrote a poem on the spot. The main point of the poem is Your Majesty, are you? The purple star descends to earth, and your light shines on all your subjects. The princes are more exciting when they have you, the princes are more outstanding when they have you, and the world exists only because of you.
Hua Liuli, who had never seen such a scene, was stunned by them, and listened to it with relish from beginning to end, even reluctant to blink her eyes.
After the touting process is over, the singing and dancing feast begins. Seeing that the Queen Mother was going to ask the female official to take away the pile of gift boxes on the table, Hua Liuli hurriedly said: "The Queen Mother, the ministers and daughters have heard that the fifth prince is good at painting, and the paintings are lifelike. I wonder if the ministers and daughters can observe them?"
As soon as these words came out, Hua Liuli felt that the Queen Mother's expression was a little stiff, and she couldn't help but wonder, did she say something wrong
"Yanqiu really likes to draw since he was a child." The Queen Mother's expression was a little complicated, "but this is just his personal hobby, don't take it seriously."
Hua Liuli thought, the Queen Mother was quite modest when she mentioned her family.
"Forget it, just watch it if you want." The queen mother put the gift box containing the picture scroll in Hua Liuli's hand, with a very... indifferent expression.
Hua Liuli carefully opened the scroll, and the words "Purple Qi Donglai" were written in the blank space. The words were very beautiful and matched the temperament of the fifth prince.
The writing is so beautiful, the painting must be amazing.
After unfolding the painting completely, Hua Liuli was silent for a long time, shaking her hands and scrolling the painting back.
It is said that it is not easy to be an elder, and it turns out that the elders of the royal family are the same. No wonder the empress dowager would say such a thing, she thought it was modest, but it turned out to be sincere.
"This painting... The font on the blank space is as dashing as the wind, and it has the elegance of the Fifth Highness." Hua Liuli returned the gift box to the queen mother's female official, "The meaning of the painting is also very auspicious, which shows that the Fifth Highness is very filial to you. "
The queen mother glanced at Hua Liuli silently, as if she had nothing to say.
"His Royal Highness is very filial. He often paints for the Empress Dowager and His Majesty. He has not stopped for many years." The female official put away the gift box and said a good word for the Fifth Prince with a smile.
Hua Liuli suddenly felt sympathy for the Queen Mother and the Emperor. She received a painting of this level, and she had to rack her brains to find some praise words to encourage him. What kind of touching grandfather-grandson, father-son relationship is this
"This year's acrobatics seem to be interesting, take a look." The Queen Mother did not want to talk about the paintings of the Fifth Prince.
"It's quite interesting." Hua Liuli nodded and turned to watch the performance.
She has been at the border since she was a child, and by the end of the year, although everyone will gather together for a lively, but they are all grass-stage teams, which are far from the performances in the palace.
At the end of the palace banquet, some nobles danced to the music, which was very lively. Whether it is a noble or a poor family who entered the imperial court by the imperial examination, they must learn the six arts of the gentleman, and dance a few times when they rise, that is the norm.
The empress dowager was old, and seeing that everyone was having a good time, she left the table ahead of time. Before leaving, she did not forget to leave the female official beside her to take care of Hua Liuli.
Her old man was worried that Hua Liuli would not be able to dance the aristocratic dances popular in the capital and would be ostracized by other noble girls.
"Fu Shou County Master, don't you want to dance?" Seeing Hua Liuli sitting still, the second princess asked her, "Why don't you come with me?"
"Thank you princess for your kindness, but the servant girl is weak. If she accidentally falls, it will ruin everyone's interest." Hua Liuli shook her head, "That's good."
The second princess knew that her physical condition was not very good, so she did not force her to be invited, and turned around and jumped up with several princess princesses.
These noble girls have received the best education since childhood, and they dance very beautifully, just like immortals walking. Hua Liuli held her cheek with one hand, looking at these beautiful and elegant women, she couldn't help but smile.
"The county master." The fifth prince, who was as warm as the bright moon, saw Hua Liuli sitting alone at the table, and came over and said, "The tea is cold, so let the palace staff change it for you?"
"No, the servant girl doesn't like to drink tea." Hua Liuli did not expect that the Fifth Prince would come to talk to her, put down the hand that was dragging her chin, and stood up to salute the Fifth Prince.
The fifth prince returned a bow: "Just now, the king saw that the princess seemed to be looking at the king's paintings. I wonder if the princess has any suggestions for painting?"
Hua Liuli: "..."
Um? !
She was just curious, and the fifth prince suddenly asked this, she was very embarrassed.
Seeing that Hua Liuli was silent, the smile on the fifth prince's face was a little light: "It's because the king's painting is not good enough..."
"Your Highness, you are being too modest." Hua Liuli said with difficulty, "Your Majesty's paintings have the heart of a child, which is not seen in many paintings."
If you don't have the heart of a child, you can't persist in your hobbies for so many years.
"In today's painting titled "Purple Air Comes from the East", the auspicious clouds are lifelike, and the fairy spirit is lingering. Although the fairy does not appear in the painting, there are traces of the fairy everywhere. The landscape below is majestic and imposing It's a bit graceful." Hua Liuli looked at the fifth prince whose smile became more and more gentle, "The servant girl has no talent in painting, if there is something wrong, please forgive me."
"No." The fifth prince shook his head slightly, he was good-looking, and even the movement of shaking his head was somewhat different from others' grace, "This king thinks that the county master is also someone who loves to paint and understand painting."
"What do you know?" The prince came over and glanced at the smiling fifth prince.
The fifth prince repeated what Hua Liuli praised him.
The prince raised his eyebrows and looked at Hua Liuli.
It seems that the feng shui in the capital is really not good, how can a good girl learn to speak nonsense with her eyes open
