Treacherous Living in the Imperial Harem

Chapter 1045: Celebration banquet

Views:

Yun Fenghuang didn't know about the Queen Mother's suspicion, so she felt relieved by teaching King Jin a lesson.

I have to say that being a biological child has the benefits of being a biological child, and there is no guilt at all when beating and scolding.

Even if Chunjia knew about it, she would never think that the imperial concubine was harsh on her children. Even if she privately advised Yun Fenghuang: "Fifteen is still young, I know that you hope that your children will become talented, but there is no need to encourage them. I think that Fifteen is very smart and cute. After entering school, , he must also be a smart kid."

But in front of her, she stood up for the noble concubine clearly, and even helped teach King Jin a lesson: "Your mother and concubine are the most gentle and virtuous in nature, but you are angry like this. It shows what a bastard you are!"

Not to mention the waiters on the left and right, they said over and over again: "Your Highness must remember the kindness of your Majesty. Your Majesty is so busy these days, but she still takes the time to teach you in person. It shows how much your Majesty cares about you!"

For a moment, King Jin did not dare to cry too loudly: "I heard that eldest brother and eldest sister were not like this when they were young?"

"Where did your highness hear the rumors?" When he said this, King Qin and Zhaoqing were beside him, and the Qing people immediately said, "His Royal Highness King Qin and Princess Zhaoqing were young, and the empress did it herself and spent countless efforts cultivating them. of!"

I also asked the two highnesses to testify and told them to tell King Jin personally, is that right

King Qin and Zhao Qing actually didn't have very clear memories of what happened when they were King Jin's age, but Yun Fenghuang, in order to prevent the two royal heirs who had enjoyed a lot of care and love based on their rankings from getting jealous, explained it in private early in the morning, saying It's because King Jin is not as smart and sensible as them, and he is not as considerate and well-behaved as them. Seeing Tian's nonsense, he has to beat him a few more times.

In order not to let King Jin notice it and feel that the mother and concubine are partial, let them cooperate.

So at this moment, King Qin and Zhao Qing, with a sense of superiority that "I am smart, sensible, considerate and well-behaved", nodded seriously: "Fifteenth brother, don't cry, who of us who are the emperor's heirs didn't come here like this? The only thing to blame is that you are too ignorant. You know that my mother and concubine are very busy these days, but you still don't give me some peace of mind! You don't even think about it, how difficult is it for my mother and concubine? "

After all, Zhao Qing was more flexible. After scolding his younger brother, he turned around and went to comfort Yun Fenghuang. Hearing many compliments, he left with satisfaction.

King Jin looked at his brother and sister who spoke so eloquently, and always felt that something was wrong...

But although he was cunning, he was still young, so he believed it and felt aggrieved: "It's because I'm ignorant that I want my mother to be more gentle and kind to me! Who would beat or scold a child who is already very well-behaved?" ? A mother-in-law has to treat a child like me without hitting or scolding her, so that she can be truly gentle and loving!"

"..." I have to say, this kid is really good at quibbling, so much so that the people who heard him felt that he was right for a moment

It's just that the person on Prince Jin's stall is Yun Fenghuang, a mother-in-law who has always troubled her elders when she was a child. She is best at suppressing a child like him who is too scheming.

After hearing this, he didn't want to be nagging at all, so he was caught and beaten again.

King Jin: "..."

After being beaten, he couldn't wait to tell his brothers and sisters, thinking that everyone would join him in condemning Yun Fenghuang. Who knows, everyone told him in unison: "It's hard for the mother-in-law. It's not easy for the mother-in-law." It's for your own good. My mother-in-law scolds you because it's for your own good. My mother-in-law beats you because you refuse to change despite repeated admonitions..."

All in all, not only did no one comfort him, but they also questioned his recent behavior of being well-behaved and sensible.

Especially King Qin and Zhao Qing, who lied with open eyes and kept claiming that this was how they got here, and they never blamed their mother or concubine for being the best!

It sounded like King Jin was doubting life...

In the end, the seventh prince was honest and said to King Jin in private: "Fifteenth brother, you should be more obedient in the future. My mother and concubine are indeed very good-natured. As long as you are obedient, my mother and concubine will never be angry."

"... Did Brother Qi often get beaten and scolded when he was a child?" King Jin suddenly realized something was wrong.

The seventh prince had been warned and originally wanted to lie, but he was really not the material. King Jin was smart and quickly found out the truth: "No! My mother-in-law has never beaten or scolded me, but she has been very kind to me." !”

King Jin: "...!!!"

He thought for a while and asked tentatively, "What about the eldest brother, eldest sister, second sister and ninth brother???"

The seventh prince scratched his head in embarrassment: "Second sister was not in front of my mother-in-law earlier, but since she came, I have never heard that my mother-in-law has punished her, and she has even been very kind to her. Ninth brother grew up with me. , the mother-in-law is also kind to him. Oh, I heard that the mother-in-law truly regards the eldest brother and eldest sister as treasures. But the eldest brother and eldest sister are the eldest son and daughter, and they should be in order. This is what they should be. "

King Jin: “………………!!!”

He thought for a long time and said cautiously, "Brother Qi, do you think there is a possibility?"

Seventh Prince: "?"

Prince Jin: "I am not actually the biological child of my mother and concubine???"

"... Even if you are not your biological child, my mother-in-law will still feel sorry for you!" If this were any other emperor's heir, he might have advised King Jin not to think too much about it. After all, when Yun Fenghuang was pregnant, except for the Ninth Emperor's daughter, everyone had some memories. Well, we know most clearly that the fifteenth brother is definitely Yun Fenghuang’s biological child.

But when the Seventh Prince heard these words, the point was not here, but, "I am not the mother-in-law's biological child! The mother-in-law told me very early on that my biological mother was the late Wen Huixian, but you see, the mother-in-law Have you always treated me badly? My mother-in-law loves me so much!"

When King Jin heard this, he felt as if five thunders were striking his head, and he almost burst into tears!

Well, regardless of whether he is his biological child or not, there is a non-biological person here who is still being treated tenderly. Why should I be beaten and scolded? !

He immediately said "Wow" and ran away!

He is not convinced!

He is going to argue with his mother and concubine! ! !

Yun Fenghuang was making final inspections for the celebration banquet tomorrow. When he heard that King Jin was crying and looking for him, he frowned slightly: "What happened?"

"The maids don't know either." Several palace attendants really didn't know. "His Royal Highness Prince Jin was talking to the Seventh Prince in the room just now. The maids were not allowed to serve him, so the maids retreated outside the door. After a while, His Highness Prince Jin came out crying to find the empress... The Seventh Prince came out to persuade her, but he couldn't persuade her."

Hearing this, several of the servants of the Qing Dynasty frowned, and couldn't help but wonder: "Could it be that His Highness the Seventh Prince was young and had no sense of control, and injured His Highness Prince Jin during the fight?"

"It shouldn't happen." Yun Fenghuang said without thinking too much, "I know Xiaoqi's nature well, so it's unlikely that he didn't know the importance. Besides, if he really lost his hand, he wouldn't just persuade Fifteen , but came immediately to apologize to me."

The child she raised single-handedly was so young, so she naturally knew what his temperament was.

He ordered the children to be taken to the Nuan Pavilion next door, "Wait until I'm done with my work and ask them what's going on?"

As a result, after checking a series of arrangements, she returned to the thermal pavilion and saw two children asleep on the couch with their heads leaning against each other.

The attendant was a little embarrassed: "Just now, His Highness Prince Jin kept saying that he wanted to find the empress, but the seventh prince persuaded him. We had some refreshments and played some games together. We gradually became tired and said that he wanted to lie down for a while. … Who knew that I would fall asleep while lying down.”

"Two little cubs." Yun Fenghuang laughed and said, "Well, since they can fall asleep so easily, it doesn't seem to be a big deal. Let's take them back to the house. Be careful not to be blown by the cold wind on the way. Don’t wake me up either.”

The little episode passed like this, and the next day was the celebration party.

This is a rare good day for the country to be proud and proud in decades. Unfortunately, God is not good. As the Qin Tianjian worked hard to calculate, it rained early in the morning.

Fortunately, with the good news of Wei He's surrender, the emperor and his ministers were in high spirits and did not say anything.

The entire banquet process went very smoothly, and the awards issued in public during the banquet brought the atmosphere of the entire palace banquet to a climax.

The Marquis of Jingning was originally a marquis. Because of his meritorious service in the crusade against Wei He and the appeasement of his righteousness in annihilating his relatives, he eventually went up to the next level and was granted the title of Ning Guogong.

The second-ranked hero is Ouyang Yanran, who has retired from old age and returned to his hometown. He left because he claimed to be ill and is not in the temple now, so his son came to take charge of it on his behalf. Ouyang Yanran was praised for his loyalty to Xiaozong. The Ji family vigorously suppressed him and was demoted for more than ten years. After his resurrection, he worked hard to eliminate political opponents for the emperor. He was also a good hand in assisting the emperor in handling government affairs. Once he became an official, he retired bravely. The emperor cared about the relationship between the emperor and his ministers, and specially granted him the title of Marquis of Huaichang.

The Ouyang family was overjoyed for a while.

After all, before this, everyone thought that today was a special event for military generals.

In particular, Ouyang Yanran's appointment to the official position was unexpected during his summer vacation. The Ouyang family now has no outstanding talents who can take on the vacant position after his return to his hometown. Seeing that the family reputation is about to decline, the title of Marquis at this time can be said to be an unexpected blessing. It is also the grace and signal that the family desperately needs.

When Ouyang Yanran's eldest son went to the palace to receive the decree on his father's behalf, he kowtowed very hard and his gratitude to Chunjia was simply indescribable.

The third one is Zhaowu Bo. Like Ning Guogong, his title was raised and he was named Longpinghou.

What is striking is that in addition to his title, Chunjia also appointed him as Minister of War.

On the contrary, Ning Guogong Ke Cong had no specific arrangements except for the title, money and silk.

The fourth one was unexpectedly Yin Qu. His achievements were listed in several ways. He probably assisted the emperor in making plans for the crusade against Wei He, arranged logistics, etc. In short, Yin Qu was not awarded a title, but he was promoted, but he replaced his former one. Cui Wan, in charge of the Ministry of Personnel.

The fifth place is Yi Guogong Yunzhao.

His title could no longer be promoted, and the reward given by the emperor was hereditary succession for three generations. In addition, there were also some arrangements for errands and rewards in money and silk.

These five people are undoubtedly the most valued. Although the rewards that follow are also generous, they are not as eye-catching as them.

Because only the five of them received rewards one by one, while the others were awarded in several or even batches.

Of course, Yun Fenghuang is most concerned about his blood relatives such as Xie Wuzheng and Xie Xiaoyu.

In the name of revenge, they joined the army, slept in the open and experienced life and death many times. Although they did not lose their lives due to various reasons, they also experienced many vicissitudes of life.

Especially when he was seriously injured several times, it was quite destructive.

When they went to the palace to receive the seal, Yun Fenghuang took a quick look and almost shed tears, but he saw that other distant blood relatives were just paying it forward. The most familiar Xie Wuzheng and Xie Xiaoyu seemed to be a different person!

The two cousins are much darker and thinner than before, but this is not the biggest change. The biggest change is that both of them have some scars on their faces.

Not to the point of being disfigured, and even because they were naturally handsome and tall, these scars added a bit of masculinity to them, making them look more charming.

However, the face is still like this, and it can be seen on the body!

It’s enough to imagine the danger at that time!
