Mrs. Pin, one of the Red House

"Is this the way of hospitality in the Jin Dynasty?" After the governor was completely speechless, his followers had no choice but to confront Wei Ruozhu.

Wei Ruozhu smiled and said: "Really?" She shook the wine glass, "Let me think about it, let's take Indonesia as an example, um..." Then suddenly changed the topic, "Wait, if I remember correctly, Your country is very particular about status, not to mention the titles of the family ancestors, but also the titles of the mother's ancestral family, and when the upper-level people speak, the lower-level people are not allowed to speak."

Before Wei Ruozhu finished his sentence, the attendant regretted why he had to say such a sentence.

Indonesia's warm hospitality to Taixi was exchanged for muskets. As for the entourage himself, his family was just an earl, not the eldest son, and he had no title to inherit. Wei Ruozhu immediately shut up after the two dead spots were touched by Wei Ruozhu.

To be precise, I don't know how to answer this question.

Of course, the old foxes from the Jin Dynasty didn't react a little bit. Those who did, were thinking about whether they should arrange for the Xishan Garrison to be transferred back to Beijing.

The surroundings suddenly fell silent, and after a while there was an uproar.

"Sure enough, it's the empress." Ning Yun shook her head. This is a typical Wei family's diplomatic style. She didn't want to complain, or she didn't know how to evaluate this behavior. "Should we hold it again?" A banquet, entertain guests from Western European countries, and re-clarify the meaning of what she said?"

As soon as Wei Ruozhu's shocking words came out, everyone changed seats under the pretense of a toast, and Daiyu and Ning Yun went to Feng Xiu, Mrs. Pingyanghou's wife, by coincidence.

Feng Xiu said it well: "If you talk about serious things, don't pay attention to me." Then he whispered to the people next to him how much the queen's behavior would affect the command of the entire five armies.

Daiyu shook her head, "Everything has been said."

In Wei Ruozhu's current position, there is no room for him to change his words, and if he changes his words, it will make the Jin Dynasty weaker than Taixi in terms of momentum.

This is not what the Jin Dynasty wants to see.

Ning Yun frowned slightly, "But now is not the time to lose Taixi, not to mention the long distance, this reason is not tenable at all."

If it leads to the Queen of Scotland, this matter would be a matter of course, but if you talk about the life of the Indonesian people, it will be a crime for others to see, so there is nothing to worry about.

Daiyu didn't quite agree with Ning Yun's point of view, "If you just talk about it, the ancients said that if you are poor, you will be alone, and if you are rich, you will benefit the world. This is not a big problem."

Lin Yuzhen was so busy that at this moment, the cross-examination between Wei Ruozhu and the Indonesian Governor came to an end, she hurriedly confessed to Wei Ruozhu, saying that she was going out to sober up, so she took advantage of the time when Wei Ruozhu and Queen Mother Zhen were talking in low voices Come together.

"Wealth will also help the world." Lin Yuzhen nodded her head after hearing the last sentence, "That's actually a theory." She smiled wryly, "Just one allusion is missing."

Ning Yun thought for a while, and added a sentence, saying: "Mozi said, "Jianai, if this is taken out of context, outsiders don't know what the allusion here is, so it should also hold water."

Lin Yuzhen nodded, "I'll go talk to the empress."

Over there, the wives of Feng Xiu's meritorious families also talked very lively.

"Do you mean to fight?"

Feng Xiu was very concerned about whether to fight or not. After all, Marquis Pingyang was now in command of the Western Army.

Mrs. Li Guogong shook her head at Feng Xiu's words, and said in a low voice: "I don't know, the emperor has to make the final decision on such a big matter."

Anyway, her husband is just a civil servant, so it's no big deal after all.

Feng Xiu shook her head, "If the emperor could preside over the political affairs, the speed of Jiangnan's reshuffle wouldn't be so fast. Thinking about it, the court and the public in the palace are all guarded by the queen."

As he spoke, he frowned, "Do you think Queen Wei..."

"Impossible, what nonsense are you talking about!" Although Mrs. Wang was present as an official's family member at this time, but because Mrs. Xing was filling in the house, the wife in front was still dead and didn't quite understand. Naturally, this circle of upper-class ladies would exclude her She is outside, so Mrs. Wang still represents the Jia family.

There was a silence around, waiting for Mrs. Wang's next words.

But Mrs. Wang was stunned there. She just didn't like Feng Xiu. Feng Xiu gave her such a shame in front of so many people at the full moon wine of Jia Min's mother's family that day. Kill Feng Xiu's prestige.

It's a pity that for the sake of it, she hesitated and couldn't tell why.

Xifeng saw Mrs. Wang embarrassed, and the surrounding Mrs. Hou and Mrs. Guo had already frowned. Baoling Hou Zhao's eyes were about to express that she wanted to kill Mrs. Wang, so she quickly bit the bullet and rescued Mrs. Wang: "Second Aunt means that if the emperor dragon is in good health, everything will return to normal..." As she spoke, she couldn't find the words.

For things like power, once you come into contact with it, you will become addicted, just like alcohol, and you can't quit it at all except death in this life.

Xifeng felt that even if the emperor could get better, the Queen Mother Wei and the Queen Mother Zhen might not be willing to return to power, so it was impossible for the emperor to get better.

She looked at the immature Meng Jiachen. Meng Jiachen was wearing bright yellow clothes according to the rules of the first-born princess. He had a cute smile on his face. Empress Dowager Zhen was physically and mentally exhausted, while Wei Ruozhu was as fierce as ever.

Looking at the rest of the people, Shi Lanyun was simply drinking and having fun by himself, and had no intention of getting involved. Daiyu Ningyun muttered to Lin Yuzhen on one side, but she didn't know what to say, and then she watched Lin Yuzhen nod her head and went to talk to Shen Tou Wei Yansheng said something respectively.

Jia Yingchun didn't come out at all.

Xifeng was startled into a cold sweat by a thought that popped up in her heart suddenly.

Now that the empress has not acted for so long, is she waiting for Princess Zhaohui to become an adult and Empress Dowager Zhen to die?

I heard that the Empress Dowager's health is also getting worse year by year. The Empress Dowager's cronies are only two, one is Zhaode and the other is Shanhua. Looking at it this way, Zhen Yingyue is not in charge, and her marriage is imminent, and she is even more unwilling. Wading in the muddy water, Shi Ningyun's father was in the south of the Yangtze River, and he didn't want to stand by the queen, so he had to speak for the queen.

If so...

Xifeng looked at Daiyu with a somewhat complicated expression. If Lin Yuzhen and Shi Ningyun were tied to a lot of behind-the-scenes forces and had to be trusted as confidantes, then there was another reason for Daiyu—— Daiyu is now Princess Zhaohui's mistress, if Princess Zhaohui really came to the throne.

Once the emperor and courtiers, it is conceivable that Daiyu's future cannot be underestimated.

After all, Baoyu has no luck, and Jia's mansion itself does not have phoenix trees, so this golden phoenix cannot be left behind.

Xifeng couldn't help thinking, if Mrs. Wang hadn't had a falling out with Jia Min, and hadn't pulled Xue's family to get married, Jia's family would have a different world in the future.

Seeing that Xifeng gradually frowned and stopped talking, Feng Xiu felt a little strange, but she also claimed to be a cultivated person, except that she had a fight with Mrs. Wang last time when she really couldn't stand it ——Actually, it's not really a fight, it's just a harmless household chore, and it doesn't make things difficult for Xifeng.

Some wives of meritorious families were more or less scruples about Xifeng's father's name, and they didn't say anything. Everyone changed the topic and just covered it up.

On the contrary, Mrs. Wang was bored by herself, and she drank pot after pot of wine. She didn't even know when the banquet would end, so she followed Xifeng home in a daze.

##

The palace banquet wasn't a bad breakup, at least Wei Ruozhu managed to scare the Indonesian governor into a fright. According to legend, when he formally met in court four days later, his legs were shaking when he stood on the Golden Luan Hall.

Although Ning Yun accepted the post copied by the Ministry of Rites to the clan princess, he took leave of absence and did not go, because this day happened to be Shi Xiangyun's Xiaoding and Jiji's day.

Because it is the matchmaker made by the royal family, Qin Tianjian and the Ministry of Rites will handle the matter of Wending and He Ba Zi, but according to the rules, Xiao Ding has to be arranged by her natal family.

Xiao Ding will perform the three rituals of Najib, Nazheng and Invitation Period among the six rituals on this day, and the Invitation Period is also a day calculated by Qin Tianjian. March [-]th next year is an auspicious day for traveling and auspicious. marriage.

Only the step of Najina's levy was advanced by Zhao's arrangement, and it was placed on the day of Xiangyun's Jiji ceremony.

Although Xiangyun and the Zhao family did not get along, to be precise it was very difficult to deal with, but after all, this is also the daughter married by the historian, which represents the face of the historian, and the Zhao family has to plan for Xiangyun's future affairs.

——Nowadays, historians have a high status, and the third family is very popular, and the second family and the first family are both prosperous.

Mrs. Zhao knows how much Xiangyun weighs, and she can't talk as much as her head, but she still feels that she has some thoughts. Although she was brought up to her eyes and taught, but the situation is easy to change, and the nature is hard to change. Zhao is always afraid of Xiangyun. If you don't please your mother-in-law and husband after you get married, and if you cause some trouble by the way, others will say it's her fault.

When Wang Shi was here before, she still had some room for buffering, but now if there is something wrong with Xiangyun, she is all to blame.

So as soon as Ning Yun came back, Mrs. Zhao immediately moved the date to the near future, and wanted Ning Yun to come forward as the princess to host Najib together with Mrs. Zhao's mother, Mrs. Zhou. I want them to be responsible for Xiangyun's Jiji ceremony.

Jiji's hairpin was rewarded by Shi Lanyun. It has folded branches, wrapped with silk, water bladder, sapphire ring, emerald gold rod, and engraved with pomegranate flowers. After a good time, he was carried back by several eunuchs from the Yellow Gate.

Shi Lanyun is a noble concubine, she can't come back easily, so she can only do her best on the accessories.

Although Najib usually looks for the elders of his own family, Mrs. Lin is far away in the south of the Yangtze River. Xiangyun's parents have passed away, and the third bedroom has a high status. People, it makes sense, as for Jiji, there is nothing to say, it all depends on who can invite high-level people.

Lin Yuzhen is also an eldest princess after all. Although in name, she has neither established a mansion nor given a surname, she is still a princess after all.

In all fairness, Zhao's arrangement was very reasonable, but as soon as the news was released, Jia's mother was a little unhappy. She is an old lord, and she is also very concerned about Xiangyun's marriage. She also knows that she was married by the Shi family. Those who are not involved should not interfere too deeply, but when they heard that Najib was using Ning Yun, they couldn't sit still for a while.

If Mrs. Lin or other relatives of the historian were used, she would have nothing to say, just like Jia's mother had no opinion on Zhou's past.

But with Ning Yun, Mother Jia had to say that Mrs. Zhao's handling of this matter was so immoral, and she was useless even if she was hired by a junior.

Although she was not happy, and it wasn't too much to deal with the Zhao family, but Xiangyun also had a good relationship with her, and she also brought Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Xifeng and Mrs. Xing, who were dressed up according to the style, to watch the ceremony together.

Xiangyun was wearing a tulip-colored double-breasted embroidered panxilian pearl brocade bezel today, twelve pale yellow Xiangfei skirts, a necklace around her neck, and a small unicorn hanging below the necklace. Some embellished hairpins hold the hair in place.

Open the ancestral hall at Maoshi, kneel down to Dongxing at Chenshi, offer incense, and greet you.

At three o'clock in the morning, I came to the Zhenxia Pavilion in the main hall.

Li Guogong's wife, Mrs. Han, sat on the east side, facing Mrs. Zhao, and said politely to Mrs. Zhao with a smile: "It's okay, they are all good boys." Pretending not to hear what Mrs. Zhao said inside and outside the words.

Lin Yuzhen and Daiyu were Jijili's official guests, but instead sat at the head of the female guests.

Needless to say, Lin Yuzhen was well-dressed according to the specifications of a princess. She was dressed in a bright yellow skirt embroidered with oriental invention birds and phoenixes, and had a gold and ruby ​​head on her head. She also looked graceful and luxurious.

On the other hand, Daiyu, according to the standard of borrowing purple, is wearing a lavender sprinkling of gold and broken flowers, embroidered cross-collar orchid Shu brocade beige, a lotus color woven gold dress, a rare formal dress, and a complete set of Dongzhu jade and cat's-eye amethyst gemstones. On the head and face, the wind is natural, and the very vulgar color vividly wears the demeanor of a hermit in the bamboo forest, like a breeze, like a mist, like a fairy coming down to earth.

From the moment Xiangyun walked into Zhenxia Pavilion nervously, he realized that basically everyone's focus was on Daiyu, so he let out a sigh of relief.

She was afraid of making a mistake and being laughed at. Although Ning Yun said yesterday that as long as Daiyu goes, people must pay attention to Daiyu, not her. Xiangyun didn't believe it at that time, but now he does.

There are beauties in Yangzhou who remain independent from the world.

Xiangyun half-lifted her skirt, supported by green strands of green bamboo, and knelt down slowly. Lin Yuzhen and Daiyu got up, Daiyu stood in front of Xiangyun, Lin Yuzhen stood on the left side of Xiangyun, and Zhao's mother, Mrs. The Quanming man passed the sandalwood box containing the hairpin in his hand to Mrs. Han, who is the future mother-in-law. Mrs. Han held the box over her forehead, bent her knees towards Dongfang three times to show her respect for the royal family, and handed the box to Lin Yuzhen .

Lin Yuzhen opened the box and held it to Daiyu.

Daiyu picked up the box with a smile, and handed it to Xueqin. Xueyan hurriedly stepped forward to hold Xiangyun's hair. There was one last step left, and Xueyan stepped aside. At this time, Daiyu turned behind Xiangyun, half-bending her knees Tie that strand of hair, insert the hairpin into the bun, stand up and sit in place.

Xiangyun folded his hands on his forehead, and with the support of the emerald green bamboo, he turned around and knelt down to the heaven and the earth three times.

Her parents have gone, so she can only salute to heaven and earth.

Turning back and getting up again, since Daiyu has acted as Jiji's person, she has to lecture according to etiquette. Zhao Shi pursed her lips. After all, Xiangyun was brought up by her. I forgot all the good words, and after a long time, my eyes were red and said: "You will be an adult in the future, you have to know how to measure."

Xiang Yun also rolled his eyes, remembering that he has no father or mother, no matter how big-hearted he is, he will inevitably hurt himself, sobbing: "I was ignorant back then, and I offended my aunt, and I hope my aunt will forgive me."

Saying that, she threw herself into Zhao Shi's arms, and Zhao Shi hugged Xiangyun, crying uncontrollably.

He also remembered that when Lan Yun entered the palace that day, according to the rules of the palace, he was not allowed to hear crying, and Mrs. Zhao cried even more.
