Dressed as a man with the eldest son

92

The study room of Jiaofangdian.

Empress Zheng was drawing a picture, Tijin and Qianjin waited on her left and right, and it was quiet. Tijin put down the paper, raised her little finger and poked Qianjin, who was clearly distracted. Qianjin quickly came back to her senses and gave her a grateful smile.

Mi Ling lifted the curtain and came in: "Your Majesty, the prince is here."

King Rong came in slowly, and walked up to Empress Zheng: "Mother."

Then she drooped her eyelids and stopped talking as if she hadn't woken up.

Tijin and Qianjin hurriedly glanced at Empress Zheng's face, Qianjin said with a quick smile, "My lord, come quickly to help your lady look at the paintings, the servants and servants are short-sighted, they can only talk about it, which spoils your mother's interest."

Tijin has moved out of the way.

King Rong hesitated for a while, but still walked up to Empress Zheng, and was taken aback when he saw the painting on the paper.

Empress Zheng made the last stroke, and looked up with a smile: "Do you like it?"

King Rong nodded in a daze: "Like."

The painting on the paper is a small portrait of the father, a cute print made by the mother. The young father opened his eyes wide, holding a fresh peach as big as a person, as if he was about to be overwhelmed, and he was vivid.

He also has such portraits, as well as Changle. They have a lot of them, three boxes in total, all painted by his mother, but he forgot when she never painted them again.

Empress Zheng took off the picture and put it aside, then picked up the brush and drew while saying: "Since Changle got married, the palace has become more and more deserted. I plan to hold a palace banquet in the imperial garden in Shangyuan, and invite all officials and wives to come in and have fun. I also want to make your royal father happy. Ever since your grandmother left, your royal father has been in a bad mood, and something like that happened at the winter festival, which made me worry all the time. Besides, I should appoint a princess for you. When the time comes, you Watch carefully, and tell me which one you see."

She sighed slightly: "Your father has a stubborn temper, and the things he believes are hard to change. Anyway, no matter what I do now, he is always concerned about it. You can bring it up."

King Rong looked at another cute portrait she had drawn, and was silent for a moment, then said, "Okay."

Empress Zheng rolled up a few paintings: "It's just that you give these few paintings to your father, saving me an extra trip."

King Rong went as he said, and the others didn't say a word.

Empress Zheng lowered her eyes while pinching her pen, and there was no sound in the study.

Tijin glanced at Qianjin, in the past it was Qianjin who came out to interrupt, but seeing that Qianjin lowered her head and did not intend to stand up, she couldn't help but sighed in her heart, the empress and the prince didn't know why they became what they are today, It is clear that the prince was still happy and harmonious before moving out, but the longer the prince grows, the more reticent he becomes, and if the empress does not ask him, he never takes the initiative to speak out.

Before the princess got married, the Jiaofang Palace was still laughing and laughing. When the princess left, it seemed that all the anger in the Jiaofang Palace had been taken away. When the princess was there, even arguing with the empress was better than being so deserted now. Even the Holy Majesty has not come for a long time. up.

Thinking about the current situation, she regretted that she stayed in the palace to show her loyalty and self-compassion in the past. It would be better to get married like Liuling. In this position, the empress will no longer have the glory of the past, and these slaves will also fall with the tide.

From the corner of the eye, she caught a glimpse of Niangniang picking up the pen again, so she hurriedly collected her mind and suppressed her worries. Right now, she only hoped that Tongjin would come back soon, and Niangniang would more or less listen to her persuasion.

Empress Zheng continued to paint, one after another, all of them were Emperor Yongzhao, as if she was tireless, suddenly with a strong force, the soft tip of the pen fell on the paper and bloomed, she didn't mention it immediately, she smiled inexplicably, and held it down. The paintbrush pressed down as if unaware, and the eyes stared at it without blinking, which was a bit morbidly penetrating.

Just when the atmosphere was getting more and more suffocating, someone came from Zichen Hall: the sage wants to see the queen.

Empress Zheng stopped her movements and raised her head with a gentle smile.

·

In the blink of an eye, we arrived at Shangyuan, the night was as bright as day, and the streets were full of excitement.

This is the first time Nan Ruo has not accompanied his siblings to the streets since time travel, so he has to enter the palace to attend the palace banquet.

The Yuyuan was opened on a large scale for the first time, and it was the empress who posted posts in person. Except for those who were sick and couldn’t get up, all of them came. Because Shangyuan also had a custom of dating between men and women, under the joke of Empress Zheng who wanted to be a matchmaker, no Few people brought their school-age children into the palace.

In particular, it means that the families of the crown princess want to take this opportunity to let their daughters leave a good impression on the prince. Well, it's no wonder that the concubine succeeded to the throne. Queen Zheng is the best example.

It's a pity that Zheng Guozhang is as stupid as a pig, and pushed such a good daughter out.

No matter how bad it is, there is still King Rong. If you can't be a princess, you can be a princess.

Nanruo, who is both a celebrity in front of the emperor and an older leftover man, has received both invitations, so he has no choice but to go.

The scumbag father also received a message from Emperor Yongzhao, and the father and son packed up and went out together.

When they arrived at Yuyuan, Nan Ruo and Zha Dad refused the guidance of the palace man, and found the water pavilion where the banquet was held by familiar ways. The father and son were old acquaintances of Yuyuan.

Xia Houchun came earlier than them, and waved to Nan Ruo from afar.

Nangong Yunlin said with a smile: "Since the crown prince called you, you can go, I am comfortable sitting by myself."

Nan Ruo sat next to Xia Houchun, because the second palace banquet was more entertainment in nature, there was no separation between men and women, most of them were divided by family, Xia Houchun and his wife Lin sat at the same table, Nan Ruo greeted Lin with a smile.

Lin stood up to return the gift, Xia Houchun hurriedly stretched out his hand to support him carefully.

Nan Ruo reacted: "Could it be that the concubine..."

Xia Houchun hurriedly booed him: "Yes, but it's just been diagnosed, and the mother said don't tell others in the first three months, otherwise the baby will be scared away, and it can only be announced when the fetus is stable..."

He said not to tell others, but he said it with a smile on his face.

Lin's soft voice explained for him: "The day before yesterday when the imperial doctor diagnosed the son, he clamored to tell the governor, but I was not feeling well at the time, and the son was worried that he didn't dare to leave the mansion, and it was not good to just ask the servant to pass on the message, so he thought about it." Tell Zhenfu personally about the palace banquet today." She covered her lips with a handkerchief and smiled, "No, I've been thinking about it since I sat down at the door."

Nan Ruo smiled and said, "Brother Chun is becoming a father for the first time, so he should be more cautious."

Xia Houchun was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear, Lin gave him a scolding look, and he restrained himself a little.

Nan Ruo suddenly felt a little regretful about sitting here. Looking at his posture, he was going to eat dog food tonight, but he was also happy for Xia Houchun in his heart. The gentle Lin was just right for him who lacked love.

Looking at the loving couple, I couldn't help but think of the prince. He also has a boyfriend who can produce dog food himself.

Fortunately, he didn't ask him to wait long, and the crown prince and King Rong arrived together.

Passing by their table, King Rong took the initiative to stop and greeted with a smile, and the prince logically followed suit.

Nan Ruo and Prince Ruoyou looked at each other for a few times, they hadn't seen each other for half a month since the Great Court Meeting.

It's a pity that everyone is staring at each other, so they can only use their eyes to comfort them, and they can't look at each other for too long.

After a while, the emperor and empress came together. Emperor Yongzhao looked in good spirits and greeted everyone with a smile all the way.

Nan Ruo was also called to come forward and say a few words. He glanced at Empress Zheng from the corner of his eye. She had a smile on her face, and the curvature of her mouth remained the same, as if engraved on it.

Palace banquets are nothing more than eating, drinking, watching songs and dances.

Nanruo didn't want to watch the couple show their affection, but he couldn't look at other people, and he didn't dare to glance at the prince, so he could only put on a look of admiring the singing and dancing.

Not to mention that Miss Dancer dances really well. The dancers trained in the Royal Pear Garden are all very good. In the previous life, they could be awarded the title of artist. If he wants to see it, he has to queue up to buy tickets. Now it doesn’t cost money. Then you can feast your eyes.

The singing is melodious and the dancing posture is like a fairy.

The room in the waterside pavilion is full of toasts and chips, talking and laughing.

Nan Ruo couldn't avoid socializing, the courtiers were afraid of him but wanted to please him, and there were relatives who wanted to make friends with him, but after a round, the wine glass in his hand didn't move at all. Still how much.

Drinking was a mistake, his body couldn't handle alcohol, so he eliminated it from the source.

The lively atmosphere seemed to have infected Emperor Yongzhao. He called some of his courtiers to play drinking orders, and Empress Zheng was the referee with a smile on the side.

The clock rang eight times, and Nan Ruo gave a pause to the hand holding the wine glass.

The emperor got up and changed the place to enjoy the lanterns in the garden.

After leaving the water pavilion, the male and female guests will automatically separate to avoid collisions and chaos. Nan Ruo reminded Xia Houchun: "The concubine is pregnant, and it will be easier to take care of her when she stays with you."

Xia Houchun also meant the same thing and asked Lin to go with him.

The courtiers surrounded Emperor Yongzhao, while Empress Zheng led the wives.

It is rare to have such a grand event in the palace. The 24 yamen cooperated with each other and showed their housekeeping skills to decorate the imperial garden beautifully.

Nan Ruo stroked the red beans on his wrist, feeling a little regretful that he couldn't enjoy the beautiful scenery with the prince.

The prince seemed to be aware of it, and by stopping to linger, he glanced this way.

Fireworks shot up into the sky with the sound of crackling, and everyone looked up to appreciate it.

According to the original arrangement, the boys and girls should come out to show their talents by beating drums, passing flowers and drinking orders, etc., but the servants who were in charge of the process waited and waited.

This time, he never returned.

Time passed by minute by minute, and everyone who watched the fireworks felt something was wrong. Where is their wife/daughter/sister?

Just as he was guessing, suddenly a group of people dressed as armored soldiers broke in, armed with knives and guns in a dignified way, and the gunmen in the front row raised their guns and half knelt in a gesture of aiming.

"Hand over the emperor and prince, and those who surrender will not be killed!"

The leader shouted loudly, the voice fell, and the gunmen rushed to the front of the pool with their guns raised, bang bang bang bang, blasting water splashes, and then quickly reloaded gunpowder and lead pellets, aiming at the startled crowd.

"What, what's going on..." Xia Houchun trembled, and immediately hid Mrs. Lin behind him, muttering, "Could it be my father..."

Nan Ruoqiang suppressed the urge to look towards the prince, pulled out the wooden stick hanging on the roadside lantern, took off the lantern and tried the stick, split it into two with force, and stuffed half into Xia Houchun's hand: "Hold the self-defense, The fire/gun range is within fifty paces, hide back."

A lot of people knew this, and they scrambled and ran backwards one after another. The people who were originally behind were exposed, and they also ran back after seeing this, never doing the outermost circle.

The thieves quickly followed up with guns, and the black muzzle of the guns pointed at themselves. No one could calm down.

Emperor Yongzhao seemed to be stimulated by the sudden shock, sitting on the head, holding his chest and gasping for breath, unable to speak.

King Rong went to help him, but he flung him away in horror, and only held Gao Jinzhong's arm tightly. Gao Jinzhong anxiously called for the guards, but nothing came.

There was a plop--

"The prince fell into the water!"
