At the moment of Shen Shi, people in the Hall of Supreme Harmony were full of voices, and the family of the monarch and his ministers had no distinction between each other.

As soon as Tu Xi entered, he was grabbed by Tu Jiao and others who had been guarding the door for a long time, and he yelled, "If you don't get drunk today, you won't go home."Tu Xi glanced at Tu Jiao with a half-smile, and saw that Tu Yun who was beside him shook his head lightly, and understood.He also nodded and smiled following Tu Jiao's words: "Since that's the case, please be merciful, brother."

It's rare to see His Royal Highness, whose eyes are higher than the top, being so obedient. Tu Jiao was surprised but at the same time faintly excited. A feast has been prepared over there, just waiting for your arrival."

After all, without waiting for Tu Xi's answer, he just grabbed Tu Yun who was beside him and ran to the table where Jia Hu, Jia Lian and others were sitting.

Jia Hu has been an official in the court for a long time, and he is tactful and listens to his speech.Although she was reluctant to let Nianchun get married prematurely, but when she thought of Tuxi's tenderness and consideration for Nianchun, she naturally had no opinion on Tuxi.Seeing that Tu Xi hadn't gone to other places, he walked to his own table first, and understood that this was Tu Xi's praise of Jia's family in front of civil and military officials and royal family members.So he quickly stood up, first raised his cup and respected Tu Xi, "Congratulations on your highness's wedding, and wish your highness and the princess concubine love forever and grow old together."

A rare smile appeared on Tu Xi's usually cold face, and he drank from the full cup on the table.

"it is good!"

Tu Jiao and the others laughed and clapped their hands. Seeing Tu Xi drink a glass, he raised his glass and said with a smile, "His Royal Highness is married to his sweetheart now, so he should drink this glass of wine with everyone no matter what. Disobedience to the kindness of the Crown Princess!"

Tu Xi looked at him with a smile for a while, and when he saw Tu Jiao almost unable to hold the cup, he took it with a smile, and drank it down in one gulp.

"His Royal Highness is a good drinker." Jia Lian stood up with a smile, without even taking the cups, and picked up two jugs. The slender spouts exude a strong aroma of wine. The wine must be very strong. "These two jugs were given by the sage last month to reward the ministers. They are called 'Ten Days Drunk'. It is said that even the best drinker will be drunk for more than ten days after drinking this wine, so it is named after it. .His Highness the Crown Prince is festive in his bridal chamber today, and his brows are filled with joy. I can't congratulate you, and with these two pots of wine, I wish your Highness and the Crown Princess a happy marriage for a hundred years, and raise your eyebrows."

Tu Jiao leaned closer to smell the aroma of the wine, and after listening to Jia Lian's words, he couldn't help but secretly clicked his tongue in his heart: Good boy, this is focusing on quality rather than quantity.

Tu Xi came over with a jug of wine, but before he could speak, a chuckle came from behind him.

"Xiao Jia's bodyguard, this is not acceptable."

Everyone heard the sound and looked around, only to see Prince Zhongshun approaching slowly with Shui Rong, with a refreshing smile on his face, at first glance, he looked a bit rich and idle.

"What is the meaning of what the prince said?"

Jia Lian raised her lips and smiled, her long and narrow peach blossom eyes were raised at the end of her eyes, and her outstanding appearance against this faint smile was even more eye-catching.

"Since today is the grand wedding ceremony of His Highness the Crown Prince, drinking and celebrating should be done as soon as possible. Xiao Jia's guard must be so happy to make my sister get married, so he congratulates her with this fine wine. But has Xiao Jia's guard ever thought about it?" , if His Royal Highness drinks two pots of 'Ten Days' Drunk', misses the court meeting tomorrow, the officials are dissatisfied, the Holy One is not worried, and His Royal Highness loses the hearts of the people, can Xiao Jia's guards bear the blame?"

The more he spoke, the heavier his tone became.After saying these words, the surrounding officials and clan members nodded their heads in agreement.Prince Zhongshun is really justified. Although the prince's wedding is a happy event celebrated by the whole world, but to the common people, it is just a chat after dinner.In the final analysis, if His Royal Highness wants to secure his seat, he should put his mind on the government affairs of the court, instead of being confined by his children's private affairs. Wouldn't it be ridiculed if it was spread out.

After everyone thought this way, the way they looked at Tu Xi, Jia Lian and others changed somewhat.

The Jia family started out with military exploits, but their background is not deep after all.Once the woman in the family flies up the branch and turns into a phoenix, the men in the family will inevitably feel a little arrogant and lose their sense of proportion.At the wedding banquet, it is really disrespectful to take out strong wine such as "Ten Days Drunk" and persuade His Royal Highness to drink it.

"Heh - who said that I want His Royal Highness to drink this wine to the full?"

"Heh - who said that this palace will be full of this wine?"

Two sneers with similar tones sounded at the same time, although the words were different, the meaning was the same.

Tu Xi and Jia Lian looked at each other, it was really a bit of a confidant at the moment.Tu Xi looked at Prince Zhongshun and said with a smile, "Uncle Jiu is newly married, I thought it was hard to see Uncle Jiu today."

The smile on Prince Zhongshun's face faded by two points, he only looked at Tu Xi and said, "His Royal Highness is becoming more and more dignified now, Uncle Ninth dare not not come. Brother Huang invites everyone to a banquet. If I don't come, others will have to make up for it when they see it." Pai said no. As far as Brother Huang is concerned, what he wants to see the most now is the harmony between brothers. I know his thoughts, so how can I put them into practice."

"However, I just looked at it from a distance, and thought that the guards of Xiao Jia were too happy today, so they had to have a drink or two with His Royal Highness in person. He also heard that this is a well-known liquor. I am afraid that His Royal Highness is not very experienced. Being greedy for drinking has just missed the court's important affairs."

He smiled gently, and what he said sounded reasonable, but Tu Xi and Jia Lian didn't express anything.Rao, Tujiao, Tujuan and others standing next to him also had different expressions. In the past two years, the loyal and obedient prince has won over the courtiers. No matter what the picture is, a discerning person still has the ability to distinguish right from wrong.

Now that the civil and military affairs of the whole court are under the circumstances, Prince Zhongshun actually accuses His Highness the Crown Prince of being "inexperienced" to his face, and even more blatantly uses his age to suppress others.If it wasn't for Prince Zhongshun who was still Tu Xi's ninth uncle in name, Tu Jiao thought, if someone else dared to say such a thing to Tu Xi, his head would have been off his waistband long ago, how could he walk back with his tail full.

Just as he was thinking wildly, Tu Xi beside him had already taken Jia Lian's two pots of "Ten Days Drunk".Watching Prince Zhongshun's back going further and further away, Tu Xi smiled softly twice, and said in a low voice: "Keep an eye on him, if there is any abnormality, cut the weeds and root them out."

"His Royal Highness, don't worry, I will fulfill my mission."

The two people who were still facing each other a moment ago looked at each other and smiled at this moment, and the indescribable and endless tacit understanding was fully revealed in their eyes.Tu Jiao glanced at Tu Xi who was still cold and proud, then at Jia Lian who was smiling flamboyantly, and silently lit two candles for Prince Zhongshun and Shui Rong—the white ones.

It's not good to offend anyone, offend these two people.

On the other side, Nian Chun sat down at the table accompanied by the empress.The little girl's bright red face has never faded since she left the Yuxiu Palace, at this moment under the night and the palace lanterns illuminated, the little girl is even more radiant, her skin is creamy, delicate and charming.

"Congratulations to the crown princess and concubine on her wedding."

All the wives paid homage to the two most honorable women in the dynasty above, including Mrs. Zhang and others, with reddish eye circles, watching their daughter standing beside the Empress Empress. Both gratified and distressed.

Under the encouraging eyes of the empress, Nianchun took two steps forward, and stretched out her hand to signal to everyone, "Madam, you are welcome to sit down."

Chen Jingfu and Lin Daiyu helped Mrs. Zhang from left to right, and said softly after sitting down, "Looking at the radiance of Seventh Sister, I think His Highness the Crown Prince would never be willing to tire Seventh Sister. Madam, don't worry too much, maybe in three days, His Highness the Crown Prince I brought Seventh Sister back home."

Lin Daiyu also nodded and said: "Yes, my wife loves Seventh Sister very much, and we are also very concerned about it. Just now I saw that the Empress loves Seventh Sister very much, besides, Seventh Sister has often been in and out of the palace since she was a child, and has a very close relationship with the Emperor and Empress Dowager Ma'am, don't worry."

Mrs. Zhang just had the urge to shed tears out of a loving mother's heart. Seeing her daughter getting married, her heart was sour.Who would have thought that her two daughters-in-law would be so nervous, and they tried to comfort her repeatedly, which made her feel warm.Thinking of this, Mrs. Zhang reached out and patted the hands of the two daughters-in-law, and said with a smile: "It's hard for you two to care about me so much, I understand. Nian girl has always had ideas since she was a child, and now she is a princess, I just hope that she is more mature than before, and don't just be childish and become Amitabha."

That's right!

Thinking of Nianchun's cute appearance of forgetting everything when he saw food, Chen Jingfu and Lin Daiyu both pulled their handkerchiefs to cover their lips and laughed softly, "Madam is right, I'm afraid the royal chef in the palace is very skilled. Seventh Sister looked at the exquisite dim sum and had no other intentions."

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were talking and laughing when a familiar voice came from behind them unexpectedly.

"Sister Lin, I haven't seen you for a long time. Why is she still in front of 'Seventh Sister' and after 'Seventh Sister', but the person sitting on it will be honored as 'Princess Concubine Empress'."

Lin Daiyu turned her head when she heard the sound, only to see that the face of the visitor was like a lotus, with a smile on her lips, on top of which was a lotus-colored jacket, and underneath a pomegranate skirt, dignified and beautiful, even better than before.

"Mrs. Xue."

The smile on Xue Baochai's face froze for a moment, and then she smiled again: "Mrs. Jia."

A concubine who is not even a side concubine, but because she is the only woman in Prince Zhongshun's mansion, she is qualified to sit here today and chat with the wives who have orders from various princes' mansions.Others saw that she spoke elegantly and behaved well, and they all seemed to be kind to her.But when she came to Jia's house, just hearing Mrs. Zhang and others call her "Mrs. Xue" felt extremely ear-piercing.

"When Mrs. Xue got married, the minister's wife did not get a banquet, so she did not go to the banquet. Seeing Mrs. Xue again today, she looks dignified and has her own bearing. It is a blessing to be loyal and obedient to the prince. It is a joy in life to think about it."

Prince Zhongshun and the current Holy One are half-brothers, although they are young, they have seniority.At this time Xue Baochai came, if Daiyu came forward, I am afraid that he would be overwhelmed in terms of seniority.But Mrs. Zhang is not afraid, she has a rank, and a first-rank edict is more important than Xue Baochai, the word "Madam" who can't be mentioned on the stage.

What's more, she is also the biological mother of the Crown Princess.

With just one look, Xue Baochai understood the meaning of Zhang's words.It's been a long time since she heard the words of praise and criticism in secret, and the Jia family is indeed not a fuel-efficient lamp.

"Mrs. Jia misunderstood. It's just that the Crown Princess is very happy today, so I came to congratulate you. Mrs. Jia is busy with other affairs, so I won't bother you much."

After all, Yuzi smiled kindly, making the other wives gasp in admiration.
