   Chapter 473 Mother and Daughter (1)

  Princess Jing'an was dressed in a red palace attire. Her face was as delicate as peach blossoms without any makeup on.

   The high consort beside him has a long body and a handsome face, with a happy look on his face.

   These newlyweds stand together like a pair of beautiful people.

   Concubine Meng looked at the bottom of her eyes, and her heart was as comfortable and happy as drinking honey. The only unpleasant thing is that the daughter and son-in-law have to serve tea to Queen Qiao first, and then it is her mother's turn.

  The wedding of a princess is different from that of a prince. It is enough to invite An to offer tea in the palace, instead of worshipping the ancestors. Moreover, whether it is Empress Dowager Zhao or Empress Qiao, no one will make things difficult for the concubine.

   The tea ceremony went smoothly, and everyone was in harmony.

   Empress Dowager Zhao told Princess Jing'an with a smile: "Jing'an, although you are a princess of the Tian family, you don't have to wait for your parents-in-law all the time. However, you must have some courtesy. You always go to Gao's family to ask for peace twice a month."

   Queen Qiao took over the words with a smile: "Jing'an has always been a sensible and polite child. Even if the mother does not tell her, she will not lose her manners."

  Evil bamboo produces good bamboo shoots, this is not true at all.

  Concubine Meng is arrogant and domineering, while the eldest prince is narrow-minded and competitive, but Princess Jing'an has been gentle and docile since she was a child. Queen Qiao has always liked Princess Jing An very much.

  Princess Jing'an was so praised that her face was flushed, and she stood up and replied, "My son doesn't dare to praise me like a mother. In the future, my son must be filial to my parents-in-law and have a good life with my concubine, so my mother won't worry about it."

   Queen Joe showed a relieved smile.

   Concubine Meng looked dazzling and disturbed, and said deliberately: "I just hope that Jing'an will be happy soon, whether it is a son or a daughter."

   This is obviously something else.

   In this room full of women, only Princess Hui'an has never given birth to children.

   The eldest prince concubine had a miscarriage, and there was a concubine under her knees. Princess Hui'an never even had good news. Last year, I brought back my nephew, Li Geer, from the Wu Mansion and raised him in the Princess Mansion.

   Concubine Meng opened her mouth, and everyone subconsciously glanced at Princess Hui'an.

   Princess Hui'an's temper has been more restrained in the past two years. Before the change, she had already turned her face and attacked. It was rare to endure it today, and he added with a smile: "Jing'an is a lucky one, maybe there will be good news soon."

   Queen Joe's smile faded.

   Concubine Meng is so blatant, it is nothing more than relying on the favor of Emperor Yongjia.

   Princess Hui'an swallowed this breath because she didn't want to cause trouble for her mother's brother.

   In the past six months, Emperor Yongjia has made it clear that Concubine Meng has been promoted to suppress the middle palace, and the prince's faction has been controlled everywhere in the court. Princess Hui'an felt sorry for her mother's brother, and she acted much more low-key.

  Lu Mingyu glanced at Concubine Meng, who was proud of the spring breeze, and smiled lightly: "Concubine Meng has a mother's heart, which is touching. As my sister-in-law, I also hope that the princess and the concubine will have a smooth life."

  Princess Jing'an thought something was wrong in her heart, so she hurriedly smiled and said, "Cheng the second sister-in-law's auspicious words. In the future, when I have free time, I will return to the palace from time to time to greet me. Second sister-in-law, don't think I come too hard."

  Lu Mingyu is the crown princess and the future mistress of the harem. Princess Jing'an's remarks can be said to be full of gestures.

Lu Mingyu smiled slightly, and was about to speak when Concubine Meng interjected, "Jingan, what are you talking about? You are Princess Wei, and if you want to go back to the palace, go back to the palace. Even the empress will not dislike you. Be diligent. Where is the Crown Princess's turn to say nothing."

  People: "..."

   Such a bright provocation, who can bear it?

Lu Mingyu's smile faded, and said coldly: "The emperor's grandmother, father, mother and queen are all sitting here, why is it the turn of a harem concubine to talk all the time? It's disrespectful to the eldest prince and Princess Jing'an, as well as disgraceful. Father's face. I advise Concubine Meng, don't be too arrogant when you speak, leave some room for yourself in everything, and leave some face for yourself."

   Concubine Meng's eyes flashed with anger, and her eyebrows were raised: "Lu Shi! How dare you insult me ​​like this!"

  Lu Mingyu's expression was light: "I'm telling the truth. Which sentence do you think is humiliating, you might as well say it, we'll break it down today."

   "You..." Concubine Meng had sparks in her eyes.

  Princess Jing'an was so anxious that her tears were about to come out, she grabbed Concubine Meng's sleeve: "Concubine Mother, you should say less."

Queen Qiao opened her mouth unhurriedly: "Prince Concubine's words speak to the heart of this palace. Concubine Meng is coquettish and spoiled, and it is not a matter of a day or two if there are no rules. Today, a rare emperor is here, I just asked the emperor to make a comment. Are what Concubine Meng said just now appropriate?"

  Lu Mingyu also looked at Emperor Yongjia: "Please comment on the reasoning."

  Emperor Yongjia: "..."

   If there were only Queen Qiao and Concubine Meng, it wouldn't be a problem for him to pull the strings. At this time, his daughter-in-law Lu Mingyu was involved. As a father-in-law, he had to give a face.

  Li Jing clearly understands the truth. On weekdays, I jumped out early and complained. Now he is silent, waiting for his father to call the shots.

Empress Dowager Zhao felt distressed for her son, and immediately said: "It's alright, it's alright, on a big day, let's not say a few words one by one. When a family talks, their teeth touch their tongues, so it's worth making a fuss. The emperor is dealing with the country. People who are facing important matters, women don't have to worry about quarrels."

  Emperor Yongjia breathed a sigh of relief and stepped down: "What my mother said is."

  Lu Mingyu had the upper hand, smiled and shut his mouth.

   Concubine Meng couldn't be more angry, she had to endure it, she gritted her teeth and closed her mouth.

  Princess Jing An turned her head aside and wiped her tears with a handkerchief.

   On the day of great joy, the mother does not give her a face. No matter how docile she is, she is not made of paper, how can she not be angry and annoyed?

  …

  After the palace banquet at noon, Princess Jing'an and Concubine Meng had the opportunity to talk alone.

   Concubine Meng held it back for a long time, and when she was alone with her daughter, she opened her mouth and scolded Queen Qiao and Lu Mingyu.

  Princess Jing An didn't comfort her as before, she just sat quietly, bowing her head and saying nothing.

Concubine Meng sang the one-man show for a while before realizing that something was wrong, and scolded Princess Jing An with some dissatisfaction: "What's wrong with you? Did you suddenly turn into a gourd? It's not because of you that I suffered so much grievance today! You're better, I don't mean to say anything without any appreciation, and I'm still pulling my face here..."

   "Does the concubine know what day it is today?" Princess Jing'an raised her head suddenly, her beautiful eyes shining with water.

   Concubine Meng was at a loss for words.

There were tears in Princess Jing'an's eyes, and her voice was choked up: "My concubine and I have just gotten married, and I happily entered the palace to offer tea and greetings. Even the imperial sister knew how to let it go, so she didn't want to have a quarrel. And open your mouth to provoke."

   "I can't see what the mother-in-law is for me."

   "If the concubine is really good for me, you should know that I should be more restrained today. Let me pass the day smoothly, and let the concubine pass this level with dignity."

   "Now, what kind of face do I have? What kind of face does the concubine have? What kind of face does the mother-in-law have?"
