Chapter 213 Prelude to the hairpin (1 more)
I heard that the eldest princess has entered the palace, and the emperor cared about the eldest princess’ hard work recently and kept food. This is also common, but after the eldest princess left the palace, the emperor issued an order.
This year's Hairpin Festival has been changed to the Water Pavilion.
The Water Pavilion is only used to hold a major state banquet. The Water Pavilion is built in the east of Kyoto City. It is the most lively place. It can accommodate many people and is also very distinctive.
The origin of the name of Water Pavilion is because a circular pool surrounding Water Pavilion is like a jade belt that divides the inside and outside. The outer terrain is slightly higher, so people can watch it at will, surrounding the inner platform, in a circle, and there are many restaurants, teahouses and viewing buildings with scattered heights.
As soon as this news comes out, I'm afraid I'll make another big profit.
The inner circle of the "Jade Belt" is the real water pavilion platform. From a distance, it is magnificent. It can be imagined that it can accommodate a banquet of nearly 2,000 people. When it was first built, it took nearly a year of national treasury income. Of course, this water pavilion platform was not built in Daxia, but the Qiyuan Dynasty before the Jin Han Dynasty.
It has been nearly 600 years. Needless to mention the landscape, the layout, decoration, and even every grass and tree inside are extremely particular.
Since the founding of the Great Xia Dynasty, there have been five major banquets in this waterfront platform, and this year's hairpin festival is the sixth.
All the news that I heard was sighing that Princess Moon was in front of the emperor, so she was really a thousand gold.
"Everyone says that the most noble woman in this world is the mother of the country, the Emperor, mother, what do you think?"
Before the order was left, the queen heard the letter. Qinghua sent a retreat from the palace servant, and she and Madam Cui stayed in the bedroom to serve her. Both of them did not say anything, and silently listened to the two masters' remarks.
Cheng Ji looked at her daughter and knew that she was in a state of ease. However, it was too late to know that she could not be pregnant. As the queen, she had no children. The person who made her unable to have children was the current emperor!
Therefore, the most noble woman in the world, this daughter, will never be able to do it in her life.
Because the emperor doesn't want to!
"Empress, the eldest princess is different from that Princess Ruan. She is not pampered or needed..." The Water Pavilion held the Flower Festival. In the future, no matter which company continues to take over, it will never be able to surpass it. It will eventually become the most lively one in history.
Mo Baozhen smiled slightly, and her exquisite makeup was always so dignified. "Yes, she doesn't need to invite favors, and she doesn't need to live in the backyard of this deep palace, but in Daxia, who dares to disrespect her?"
"Empress!" Cheng Ji shouted, but didn't know what to say.
She knew that there was still a gap in the Queen's heart about King Jing.
"After the Hairpin Festival, the wedding dates of all the princes should be almost set. Let the Feng Girl prepare for it." Xianwang's marriage is certain, and the wedding dates of the other princes will be set together. In another year or two, Kyoto will be a new scene.
The prince is the prince, but when the prince has his descendants, the foreign relatives behind them will have ideas. At that time, the exchanges between the families will begin to become closer.
Her empress will be quite embarrassing at that time. The Mo family chose not King Jing, but the other concubines in the harem all had sons to support them. With the power of the concubine, what about her? She couldn't beat her alone. There was a Mo family behind her, but she was stuck between King Jing and King Jian...
In the end, the best result is nothing more than a leisurely empress dowager who rests on others.
How can she be content?
"I understand. Feng Yat-skin Festival will go. At that time, you, the aunt, will have a good chat with her."
Needless to mention the flower hairpin festival in the Water Pavilion, it is even the state banquet specifications. If the emperor goes, the concubines in the harem will go, let alone the powerful and powerful in Kyoto.
"I'm afraid that if my aunt's temper may not be able to hear it in my heart."
Cheng Ji narrowed her eyes. Zhen'er still refused to support King Jian with this meaning, "That girl, I don't know who she looks like. It's not too late today, I should go back."
Mo Baozhen stood up and gave her a look, nodded to Qinghua beside her, and saw Qinghua return to the inner hall and soon came out again, with a tray in her hand.
"Two days ago, a small country named Dasang came to pay tribute to a set of colorful gems. The emperor sent them to me. It was very magnificent and rare. I was surprised when I saw it. Feng'er's girl has been a prominent figure since she was a child. She was also very old. I asked the Interior Office to create a set of jewelry overnight. My mother would take it to Fengya."
Looking at the jade hands holding her arm, Cheng Ji suddenly couldn't understand this daughter anymore. What did the two attitudes mean?
After all, it was the invasion of this deep palace. Now, this daughter is not only the daughter of the Mo family, but also the queen of Daxia.
"Mom, be careful of the threshold. My mother said just now, I don't know who Feng's temperament looks like. My daughter really feels it's a bit like a Baozhu, what's the mother?"
Cheng Ji's body suddenly stiffened. Madam Cui, who had never lost her body, almost tripped. She looked up at the queen in shock, and Qinghua seemed to be frightened and moved slightly.
There was only the queen's face, not moving at all.
Cheng Ji closed her eyes for a while, opened her eyes when she stepped over the steps, and smiled again on her face, but it was obviously much more combed than before. She pulled her hand away without hesitation and let Madam Cui support her.
"The Empress said this, it really resembles the queen. More than ten years have passed in a blink of an eye, and I almost forgot... The empress doesn't have to send it away. Recently, there have been several wedding events at home. I'm afraid I won't be able to take time to see the queen. There are many affairs in the harem, so the empress is good at taking care of her health."
Mo Baozhen still smiled slightly, but there was a hint of coldness in her eyes. She was the queen, and even if she was her own mother, she could not overestimate the etiquette. Therefore, she did not have to give her a gift, and watched the other party leave, and turned around and entered the palace and smiled gradually dissipated.
Yes, so many years have passed, and when she mentioned Baozhu, her mother still couldn't get through, so why should she force her to let go? Put her heart in favor, her mother always loves Baozhu a little, right?
It’s either my favorite, or no matter how I am, I can’t stand it, so she doesn’t force it.
A word of concubine finally vented my mother's thoughts. She knew that everything that my mother could not see on her was already entrusting her hope to Feng'er's girl.
In fact, it is not like it at all. Although it is as ostentatious, Feng Yatou has the magnificent ambition that Mo Zhu does not have.
"Empress, why bother?" Qinghua helped the person in and sat down, unable to help but speak softly.
Yes, why bother? Everything she has now is closely related to the Mo family. If it weren't for her surname Mo, how could she sit so safely for so many years? With her ability?
No, just because her surname is Mo, just because the emperor wants her to sit in this seat safely.
"After a while, you will go to the Princess's Mansion and send the order to the Princess to the Princess. You will say that you have to worry about this Hairpin Festival. If there is not enough manpower, the Princess can call it at will."
"...Yes!" The palace adjustment order can mobilize all palace servants in the inner palace at will, including yourself!
This is the right that only the queen has. The empress has great respect for the eldest princess, but does this seem too weak?
Mo Baozhen didn't explain much and sighed inwardly, not to mention her palace transfer order, even if she wanted to mobilize the Imperial Guard, the emperor would agree. After all, it was the only princess in Daxia.
Over the years, she has also known the emperor for five or sixty years. If the eldest princess really had no support, she would never have the status of being in front of the emperor today.
What exactly is it? No husband or son, and the Queen Mother is no longer here...
Not only Mo Baozhen has thought about this question, but many people have speculated it, but there is no answer. It is not that no one knows it, but there are too few people who know it.
Prince Duan is one of them.
"Sister, your scene is big enough!"
The water pavilion platform has been almost arranged. Tomorrow, it will be the hairpin festival that will be watched by the general manager. As the organizer, the eldest princess always has to come and watch it in person before she can feel at ease.
However, the people who came with the eldest princess today are quite powerful. Prince Duan of Daxia, to say, these two are both the same mother and the emperor, and their relationship is not common in the royal family.
Prince Duan is in charge of the three royal family members. Like the eldest princess, there is almost no sign of Prince Duan except for his own affairs and other court affairs.
"The emperor wants to be lively, so I have to feel more tired. You will be sarcastic now and you will not come to help you." Whether in front of the emperor or in front of the prince, the eldest princess never bans the words and says whatever you want.
Prince Duan is a few years younger than the emperor and looks full of energy. Maybe he is not as hard as the emperor, so his belly is round and he is very blessed, but judging from the outline, there are still some similarities between brothers.
"I'm not going to intervene this. I heard that the queen's palace transfer order has been sent to the emperor's sister."
The eldest princess glared at the other party without hesitation, "You can find a remark, why do you have time to accompany me here today?"
"It's not that girl, Nuoer, please give me a shit. The princess you want to choose for Jiuxi, is it the woman of the Lin family?"
The eldest princess was so straightforward that she didn't react. She waved her hand and kept her distance from the people behind her. She mopped her skirt and patrolled the water pavilion step by step.
"Nuoer? Then you tell me first what happened to the top scholar banquet?" Could it be that the emperor was wrong? He said that the emperor had to make a fuss in his spare time? That would be a little too early.
"Sure enough, the emperor would tell the emperor sister about everything, but he was really not from me. Emperor sister, in front of you, I don't want to say those twists and turns. Jiuxi's child had a long way to make the emperor satisfy him and the Lin woman."
The eldest princess said lightly, her steps did not stop, and she continued to look around, but her mind was gone.
"It's not yours, who else can move your people? If you are trying to remind the emperor brother to destroy Jiuxi's plan? Why not tell the emperor brother directly?" It's a bad thing to use the dead soldier. Wouldn't it be a bad thing to destroy the banquet of the top scholar and make people panic?
"Besides, you are an elder, and that child is planning a wife. Why are you doing something? Why, your little Nuoer is interested in Jiuxi?" Hu Nao, that's his cousin.
"Nie Mu!"
"The top scholar?"
Haha... The eldest princess smiled quite unexpectedly. As far as he knows, the top scholar is indeed a good one. Xiao Nuoer, a princess, likes someone who only wants to talk to others and is so irritating.
"The emperor's sister doesn't know. On the day the emperor's brother named the top scorer, Nuo'er happened to be in the palace. The emperor joked that he would choose Nuo'er as his husband. You know that Nuo'er girl. He has been lawless since childhood and has secretly hid outside the Golden Palace to peek..."
Prince Duan shook his hands with helpless expression.
"Why, I fell in love with the top scholar? The top scholar refused to marry, hurting her princess's face, and listened to the rumors outside, so I want to teach the lady Lin a lesson? Are you so spoiled by your father?"
The eldest princess said it lightly. The words of this emperor brother are true and seven parts false. Why should she go back with all her heart and just chat?
"I have finally given birth to such a girl. I have spoiled her. I gave her a few people to use. However, I have explained it carefully... But that girl is young, and I don't know the depth... I almost caused a big disaster. I found the emperor's sister, and I want to ask the royal family to say something..."
"Tell me directly to the emperor brother, your father is spoiled, so what do you want me to talk about? Also, what do you ask Jiuxi what the child is doing with the Lin girl?"
She was just a mess when she was a mess, so she was a little more unreasonable.
"You are not that little girl's aunt! If you don't look for you, who else can I ask for this Daxia to say something for her? As for Jiuxi's child... Hey! That's the emperor's family background, and I didn't want to intervene. However, because of this time, I realized that Jiuxi's child was secretly protecting the Lin woman, so I just checked it. Does the emperor know about the Zi family in the previous dynasty?"
Prince Duan said it unintentionally, and finally, he acted like a daughter slave, turning the focus back to the matter of his daughter.
The siblings were "chat" together, but what they were talking about was changing.
"I'll talk about everything after tomorrow's Flower Festival."
