Chapter 498 Glutinous rice
It wasn’t that Concubine Xian lost all her reason. She knew that even if she fainted at this moment, no one would care about her.
The emperor disliked her and even his aunt stopped helping her. What was hateful is that even the fifth brother never asked for love for her.
Half a lifetime of planning, I was about to get it, but it was just a little short of it. How could the Xianfei Concubine be willing?
She slowly got up and said coldly: "I am wronged and will naturally ask the Empress Dowager to apologize when I look back. But today is the joy of my grandson Miyue. The gifts I have prepared for my grandson have not been given out, so I cannot kneel here."
After saying that, she gritted her teeth and walked out.
Madam Hu knew her temperament and did not dare to stop her. She could only shake her head and said, "Why should the Empress Dowager? Now the Empress Dowager and the Emperor are both angry. Why don't you kneel down? If you turn around, the Empress Dowager can find a step to forgive you."
Concubine Xian didn't listen to her and walked straight out.
But even if she goes out, she can't enter Qiankun Palace.
Qiankun Palace is where the Supreme Emperor lives. Without the Supreme Emperor's permission, who dares to let her in? She stayed outside and waited for everyone to send blessings to the dim sum and carried it out, she went forward and hung three golden locks on the dim sum's necks.
The dim sum were already covered with various long-lived locks and Ruyi cards, and there were only a few gold and silver hats, so they could no longer take them. They put them on the dim sum and were taken away by Madam Xi.
Concubine Hu gave a golden collar, carved with the eight words of peace and wish, and longevity.
The golden lock card of Concubine Xian happened to be placed on the golden collar given by Concubine Hu, which looked particularly stingy.
Concubine Xian was even more annoyed, but she didn't dare to act rashly now. After all, if she continues to make trouble today, she will have no room for maneuver.
When the eunuch gave the snacks out of the palace, he set off firecrackers. As a piece of red paper floated, the group came out again and headed straight for Jinghou Mansion.
Mi Yue also had a particularly important ceremony when she returned to her parents' home.
Now that the old lady is inconvenient, the mansion is temporarily led by the two old ladies, and prepared soup cakes to entertain relatives and friends, so when I returned to Jinghou Mansion, the whole Jinghou Mansion was very lively.
I waited for a ill day today, saying that I had coughed and had a fever since I had been hit last night, so today, Miyue returned to the door, so he couldn't stay with me for too long. He just waited for a while to give gifts to the child, set off firecrackers and then went back to rest.
The old lady was pushed out in a wheelchair. When Yuan Qingling saw her, her eyes turned red. She just shivered and couldn't say anything sharp, so she simply stopped saying it and nodded to Yuan Qingling.
Yuan Qingling was worried about her throughout her confinement period, and now she could only see her, so she naturally had to go up to greet her and check her. There were too many people here, so she pushed the old lady back into the yard.
The old lady was unwilling to do so, meaning she was seriously ill, but she couldn't say it out. Even if she was unwilling to do so, she could only let Yuan Qingling push her away.
The rest of the people sent the snacks to the beds prepared early. They lay down on them. According to custom, this is called moving the nest. After leaving the confinement period, moving the nest, and from then on, they will be safe and happy everywhere.
Outside the incense table, the two old ladies led the people in the mansion to worship the heaven and earth and ancestors, and then entered the room. With the help of Madam Xi and the wet nurse, they applied red water to the child's face and cinnabar on his forehead. From now on, the child has removed the yin energy that has been reborn, and cinnabar can kill evil spirits and can also ensure safety and good luck.
There were many relatives in Jinghou Mansion, and all kinds of gold and silver jewelry were placed on the children. The second old ladies, Huang, Luan, and grandmothers from each room all came forward to say blessings. For a moment, Madam Xi and others couldn't squeeze in and could only watch outside.
The wait also passed. As the child's grandfather, the gift he gave to the child was not shabby at all. There were three golden and jade sticks. However, when the noise was very loud, Xiao Nuomi started crying. He picked it up and wandered around in it, and really asked him to coax it.
The soup cakes are ready, and everyone from the Chu Palace today has to go and eat the soup cakes.
However, Madam Xi was very conscientious and asked people to take turns to eat. She went first, and the three wet nurses accompanied the ladies to see the children in the house. When she and A Si Man'er had finished eating, they would come over to change the people.
Madam Xi told me not to let the snacks leave their sight.
However, there are Gu Si and Xu Yi outside, and even if someone holds a baby, he can't leave the yard.
In this way, he took turns to eat soup cakes, and Yu Wenhao also helped to withdraw the incense case back to the divine building. He burned incense himself, which was considered to have completed the process.
On the other side, Yuan Qingling also checked the old lady and came out. She prescribed medicine. Although the old lady's condition was serious, fortunately everything is stable now and there is no sign of a second wind disease. I will just wait for her to rebuild her in a few days.
In this way, after finishing the etiquette, the wet nurse came out of the Marquis’ Mansion with the snacks in her arms.
The group got on the carriage, and after this, the children fell asleep. Their faces were red and yellow, and they could not see their appearance, but they were very interesting.
When Yuwen Hao rode his horse, General Luo, the ghost guard, appeared.
"Your Highness, I'm waiting to go out from the back door with a child in my arms. I've ordered the ghost guard to follow me." General Luo said.
Yuwenhao nodded, his eyes cold, "Well, okay, follow him secretly and see who he associates with. Remember, if there is danger, save the child first."
General Luo bowed, "Yes, Your Highness!"
Yuwenhao rode his horse and chased the carriage and slowly returned home.
When we returned to the mansion, guests came one after another.
The wet nurse went back to Xiaoyue Pavilion with the snacks and washed the cinnabar and red water on their faces. After washing, the wet nurse of Xiaonuomi screamed in fear.
Madam Xi was outside, screaming when she heard it, thinking that something had happened, so she went in immediately.
"What's going on?" Madam Xi was angry, "There are guests outside."
The wet nurse was so scared that she was out of her mind. She pointed at Xiao Nuomi, and she couldn't even make a sound, and she was filled with horror.
Madam Xi went over suspiciously and saw that Xiao Nuomi was not Xiao Nuomi? It turned out to be a baby face that she had never seen before. It was about the same size as Xiao Nuomi, but it was definitely not Xiao Nuomi.
"Oh my God, why is this happening? Aren't you all staring at me?" Madam Xi said angrily.
"I have always been holding it." The wet nurse finally got frightened, returned to her soul, and quickly defended.
Yuan Qingling was next door, and he heard the screams and brought A Si and Man'er over.
Seeing this scene, Yuan Qingling's face suddenly turned pale and he said anxiously: "Hurry up, look for the prince."
Yuwenhao also came in, grabbed her hand, and said in a deep voice: "Old Yuan, don't panic, the child is fine, your father has taken it away, the ghost guard is already chasing her, and you will be back in a while."
When Yuan Qingling heard this, he grabbed his wrist and his eyes were about to break. "Wait? Why can he take away Xiao Nuomi? Where can he carry him?"
