Chapter 130: Drunken Queen Mother 31
"Your Highness, this is absolutely true." The little **** knelt in front of the seventh prince and replied to the news he had inquired: "It has spread throughout the palace, and now the twelve princes go to school every day before they go to school. You have to go from Yuqing Palace to the Empress’s Empress’s Changchun Palace to say goodbye before returning to the imperial study, and after school, you will also go to the Empress’s Empress’s Changchun Palace first to greet you, every morning and dusk, and never slack off.”
"Impossible, impossible." The seventh prince's fist on his knee loosened and clenched: "I did a lot of water grinding before the queen back then, if she has the heart , why didn't you choose me instead of the twelfth brother?"
Maybe the Empress did not have this idea a few years ago, but now she has it? Or maybe the empress didn't like you at all? The little **** bowed his head and slandered, but he said quietly: "I don't know this slave."
The Seventh Prince did not expect a little **** to answer his question, he stood up and wandered back and forth in the room with the doors and windows closed, his heart was very unwilling to make him restless. Choosing the twelfth prince and not choosing him is full of resentment and resentment.
What's so good about the Twelve Princes? When he was a child, he was a fool who believed whatever others said. When he grew up, he was a **** who had a brain and loved to take anger out of others. Why did Queen Wang fall in love with him?
The seventh prince is puzzled, and the palace maid is also puzzled.
"Niangniang, why did you choose the Twelve Princes?" Shunyi offered Wang Qingqing a bird's nest with rock sugar. In the autumn, the weather is dry and the bird's nest nourishes yin and nourishes the face.
"Why can't I choose him?" Wang Qingqing took it over and poured it in a few mouthfuls, like swallowing the jujube whole. For Wang Qingqing, a bird's nest a day is as difficult as taking medicine.
"The Twelve Princes are so old, can they still be close to you?" Shunyi took the bowl handed over by Wang Qingqing, turned and put it on the tray on the side table: "Wangui Yilin Didn't you entrust the 21st prince to your concubine before going? Why don't you bring the 21st prince? He is young, we will bring him up from a young age, and he will be close to you when he grows up."
"Silly Shunyi." Wang Qingqing stood up with a laugh and patted Shunyi's shoulder with a fan: "adopted sons, adopted sons, sons raised for others, why does this palace want to be close to them?"
"With you by my side, I'm not lonely, I can't find support from other people's sons." She gently waved the fan and paced back and forth: "This adopted son, I don't need this. How much mother-son friendship does he have with Ben Gong, Ben Gong only needs him to be kind and generous, and to have a general etiquette."
"Wu Jieyu has a pure and kind heart, and the Twelve Princes are also quite kind. Wu Jieyu left early. The Twelve Princes are considered to be the master of the imperial study and raised by the young teachers."
Wang Qingqing stopped here and sneered softly: "These officials in the imperial study room, how hard to say what their personalities are, in front of their prince students, they will definitely show the obvious De Weixin's high-spirited and far-reaching side, in this way, the twelve princes who grew up in this atmosphere should not be too bad."
"Bengong doesn't need him to treat your master and me as close to me as a mother." Wang Qingqing looked at Shunyi with a smile and said: "As long as he respects Bengong as a mother, it is appropriate."
It turned out that Niangniang thought this way, she nodded in understanding: "Niangniang is well thought out, it's the slaves who are stupid."
"Shun Yi, shun Yi!" Wang Qingqing walked to the rocking chair beside him and sat down, the rocking chair swayed back and forth with the force of his feet: "You have to understand that whether it is a relationship between a man and a woman or a mother and son, The relationship between father and son, human emotion is the most difficult to calculate, even if you give first, you may not be able to exchange for the same return, so don't force it, you can't ask for it, everything is good."
"The maiden's words made the slaves very suspicious." Shunyi took a small soft pillow and put it on the back of Wang Qingqing's head: "The slaves are dedicated to taking care of the goddess, and the goddess is good to the slaves. Why does Niangniang want to say that she can't get anything in return for her efforts? Isn't it just heart-to-heart between us masters and servants?"
"Miss, are you praising yourself?" Wang Qingqing's words made Shunyi's eyes widen.
"Yes, this palace is praising herself." Wang Qingqing laughed out loud at her amusement.
On the tenth day of September, the empress will be forever.
All the women of the fourth rank or above in Beijing will get up at the third watch to wash and dress up. Today, they will enter the inner palace from the Danfeng Gate and gather in the Jiaotai Hall to celebrate the birthday of the empress.
Wang Qingqing was dressed in a solemn and solemn manner and sat on a high position.
A clean whip sounded and the ceremony began.
First, the eldest prince recited the birthday speech, and after reciting, he led more than 20 brothers to give a big gift to Wang Qingqing. The brothers retreated to the left front of the main hall and stood in a row, accepting the baptism of the eyes of many life women in the main hall.
Repeated scans were carried out severely.
The future emperor may be among this group of people. Be sure to remember the faces of the princes. No matter which prince ascends the throne in the future, you will know what the emperor looks like so.
The princes stepped aside, and it was the turn of the princesses to play.
The princesses were all dressed up to show off their beauty. Nearly 40 princesses knelt in the open space in front of the hall to give Wang Qingqing a big gift. The scene was really spectacular. His Majesty's kidney raised a trace of awe.
The princesses who finished the ceremony withdrew to the right front of the main hall and stood up. They were baptized by the eyes no less than their brothers. And the family represented by the foreign women present may be their destination.
Back in place again.
After a series of complicated ceremonies, everyone moved to the imperial garden in a mighty manner, and the Queen's Qianqiu Banquet was placed among the various autumn chrysanthemums in the imperial garden.
His Majesty the emperor came to join in the fun, first rewarded Wang Qingqing with three birthday gifts, and then personally took out the 12th prince and asked him to serve tea to Wang Qingqing.
The scene was filled with women of foreign orders. His Majesty the Emperor did not sit for long. After giving enough face to Wang Qingqing, he withdrew. Everyone saluted His Majesty the Emperor and then took their seats again. Wang Qingqing greeted the ordered women to continue enjoying the banquet , her freshly-baked son stood beside her and personally held a silver chopstick to prepare vegetables for her.
Wang Qingqing smiled and patted the seventh prince's arm to praise him: "My son is filial."
The Twelfth Prince said respectfully: "Honoring the mother and the queen is a matter of the son's ministers, and is not worthy of praise as the mother and queen."
Wang Qingqing said with a smile on her face that she was good, the mother and son here were seen, and the twelfth prince was about to be the twelfth. The Queen's concubine valued it, and the position of the ninety-five supreme, I am afraid I can think about it for a while.
The wives who had the daughter of the right age at home brought wine glasses and left the table to congratulate the Empress on her own birthday, and then took the opportunity to chat with the Twelfth Prince for a few words, in order to be able to get up close and personal To test his character and behavior, the 12th prince was surrounded by people for a while, and it seemed that he was very hot.
The banquet of the princes was arranged in an open hall not far away. During the banquet, the princes drank and recited poetry, chatting and chatting very lively, but no one was willing to talk to the seventh prince, and even had a lot of relationship with him. The four princes, who were in love with each other, ignored his faint love.
The Seventh Prince understood that because the Old Twelve gained power and he had never been at peace with himself, the brothers must be on his side, so they must be farther away from him.
The seventh prince sat sullenly, and when he came out of the open hall, he saw the welcome scene of the twelve princes not far away. Walking around, he came to the edge of a stack of high rocks from time to time. He climbed to the top with both hands and feet, and chose a smoother stone to sit on, watching the lively banquet in the distance.
Three or five eunuchs carrying baskets full of cups, dishes and bowls removed from the mat passed by the rocks, put down the heavy baskets and rested, a slightly younger man smiled and said: " Today, the Empress Qianqiu, how come the Twelve Princes are the most showy?"
"What do you know? Stupid, I can't see it, the Empress is trying to flatter him." The older one sneered at him: "Just now, Mrs. The twelfth prince's face is put in front of the empress to praise her little granddaughter, Qing wait and see, it won't be long before the twelfth prince will have a daughter-in-law of a noble girl."
The seventh prince on the top of the rock couldn't help but feel bitter when he heard this. The twelfth prince was nearly two years younger than himself, and all of them had a first-rank grandmother of the state's public family who took the initiative to show their affection. What about yourself? I'm afraid no one remembers that they haven't set a marriage yet, right?
When the seventh prince mourned himself, another tall and thin **** couldn't help but sighed repeatedly: "The twelfth prince is a real worthy of recognition, but a cup of tea is directly in the second Thirty princes are among the best."
"A cup of tea? How can there be such a simple thing?" The older **** smiled coldly: "Since the seventh prince was five years old, he has been courting the queen's concubine, and when it comes to tea, he He has also respected the Empress a lot, why didn't the Empress choose him?"
The twelve princes on the top of the rock suddenly widened their eyes when they heard this, yes, why didn't the queen choose herself?
When I was five years old, my nursing mother told me that I was very popular with the Queen when I was born, and the Queen of Wang had the idea of adopting her. It is the adopted son of the Queen.
Being the adopted son of the queen is naturally much better than being the adopted son of Duan Concubine. But he didn't say anything, and even slandered his father when he was seven years old, and moved himself to Yuqing Palace in advance.
Because of Queen Wang's actions, I once suspected that there was a feud between my mother-in-law and Queen Wang, but there was nowhere to go to verify it. It happened today, let's listen to what these eunuchs have to say.
The seventh prince was afraid of disturbing the eunuchs, so he could not help but hold his breath, and signaled his own little **** to squat down and not make a sound, the seventh prince who was hiding on the rock pricked up his ears Listen carefully.
The elder **** said slowly: "When Wu Jieyu was gone, the twelfth prince was too sad and fell ill, and the empress took the twelfth prince to Changchun Palace to take care of him personally. The twelfth prince is very good. Later, I learned that the Empress loves to read books, so I spent three months copying two scriptures and dedicating them to the Empress."
"The Twelve Princes were only seven or eight years old at that time, and he had this kind of filial piety, right?" He paused and then said, "Does the Empress have any precious things? Does she lack those two books? It's just her heart."
"The seventh prince was burnt back then, and he was taken care of by the empress. At that time, he was seriously injured, and the imperial doctor once said that his life was in danger. Hold on, the Empress took him to Changchun Palace to take care of him for more than three months, have you ever heard what he did for the Empress?"
"I've never heard of it." The tall and thin man laughed loudly: "Apart from using a sword to smash a side hall of the Empress, I have never heard of what he did for the Empress."
already."
Several eunuchs picked up the baskets and left, but the seventh prince on the rockery was dripping with cold sweat, his heart! Mind, but it turns out that what I lack is a mind.
Indeed, I have never done any real thing in front of Queen Wang except sweet words, so is this the difference between me and my twelfth brother?
If I start to show my heart to the queen now, is it still too late?
