Rebirth of the Taming of the Slaves
Chapter 8
Since returning to Anpinghou Mansion, I have never gone out again.I read books and practice calligraphy at home every day, and my life is quite smooth.
Three days later, the emperor held a reception banquet for Liang Chuyi, and all officials of the third rank and above in Beijing could bring people to attend.As the legitimate son of the Marquis of Anping, I will naturally go to this kind of occasion.
After returning home that day, I told my father everything that happened along the way.After learning the news that the emperor held a banquet, my father didn't want me to go. After all, I traveled all the way with Liang Chuyi. Even though I changed back into men's clothes, I was afraid that the other party would recognize him and cause trouble.However, it is not a secret that I have returned to the mansion. In addition, there is Hua Lingshu in the mansion. If I hide in the mansion and do not attend the banquet, if someone hears it into the ears of the emperor, I am afraid it will be mistaken for disrespect to him. .
After thinking about it, I decided to join.Seeing that I persisted, my father was also afraid that the emperor would know that he had committed a crime to the Marquis of Anping, so he agreed.Someone bought a set of outfits for me, and brought me into the palace the next day.
There are not a few people who know that I have left Beijing, and now seeing me standing beside my father, everyone can't help being a little surprised.I knew in my heart that they were surprised that I, who was famous outside, went back to Beijing in a low-key manner and did not make any trouble.
I raised my eyebrows and smiled at everyone, greeted a group of ministers, and followed my father honestly to Zhengde Hall.Dad is very satisfied with my performance after returning to the mansion this time. Seeing that I am obedient now, he is so happy that the beard on the corner of his mouth is raised.Perhaps because he was afraid that I would notice it, my father squinted at me, thinking that I hadn't noticed, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily curled up a little.
Looking at my father's deceitful appearance, I was both funny and sad.In my previous life, I always felt that he controlled me too much. Even though I knew he had good intentions for me, I would resist him in my heart.Now seeing him so happy because of my cuteness for a few days, I always feel sorry for him.
At this time, many officials had already arrived at the Zhengde Hall. Seeing my father leading me in, they all greeted my father with surprise on their faces.After the old man exchanged greetings with them, he took me to his seat.
Although I am the eldest son of Marquis Anping, I don't have any official position, and I am a junior, so my seat is placed behind my father.After I sat down, I looked around and found that the position here was just right to observe the people in every corner of Zhengde Hall.
The little eunuch standing next to me saw that I was sitting still, and hurried forward to pour me a cup of tea.I turned my head to look at the other person, and found that this person seemed familiar.After thinking for a long time, I realized that this person seems to be from the Palace of the Four Princesses.
I understood that this person was probably placed by the fourth princess on purpose, so I thought about it a little bit.
The little eunuch also understood what he was talking about. Seeing me looking at him all the time, he couldn't help showing a bit of flattery on his face. He probably wanted me to get some benefits from being with the fourth princess.
Seeing that I kept looking at him without speaking, the little eunuch couldn't hold back the smile on his face after looking at me for a while, moved his body stiffly, bowed and smiled and said, "Young master, yes, but what are your orders?"
My eyes lingered on him for a while, and I frowned and said, "Go down if you have nothing to do, I can't eat you standing next to me."
"..." After the little lady overheard my words, her expression froze immediately.After hesitating for a while, he finally bowed and left.
I looked at the other person's appearance and couldn't help sneering.He raised his hand to pick up the cup of tea and took a sip, feeling much more at ease.Even Qingfeng tea, which I have not liked much, is quite good.
A quarter of an hour later, Liang Chuyi arrived with the accompanying officials from Xiling. When my father saw the other party coming, he turned around and told me to be honest, and then went to greet the other party.I gave him a blank look, picked up the teacup and looked around the entire hall.When his eyes turned to the second pillar in the northwest corner, when he saw the handsome eunuch, the hand on his right leg suddenly grasped the hem of his clothes.
As the consort of the fourth princess in my previous life, I naturally can't forget what kind of person I slept with for several years. Besides, the other party later imprisoned me and tortured me. I already hated her to the bone. I have already engraved the face in my mind.
Ao embroidery!Ao embroidery! !
I was thinking of the name of the fourth princess fiercely in my heart. In the end, because I was afraid of arousing the suspicion of the fourth princess, I looked away and pretended not to notice her.
I lowered my head and looked intently at the delicacies on the table, but in fact I kept paying attention to the fourth princess.Feeling her gaze lingering on me, the disgust and hatred in my heart gathered little by little, and soon reached the point where I couldn't suppress it.However, at this moment, the voice of Eunuch Du, the chief eunuch, sounded in Zhengde Hall, and everyone who was greeting each other knelt down and saluted after hearing the emperor's arrival.
With the arrival of the emperor, the eyes that had been paying attention to me disappeared.I knelt on the ground, wiped the cold sweat in my palms with the hem of my clothes, and stood up with everyone.I don’t know if it’s my illusion. When the emperor helped Eunuch Du to sit on the dragon chair, his eyes seemed to pass by me. I slightly raised my head to observe the emperor secretly. Liang Chuyi went to exchange pleasantries.
Liang Chuyi presented the gifts he brought from Xiling, followed by singing and dancing performances.In my previous life, I might still be interested in seeing the beauties in the arena, but at this time, I don't have that thought anymore.Holding the teacup, he looked around at the people in the hall, thinking about how to pull out the fourth princess and get Liang Chuyi's attention.
Maybe the sky really has eyes. At this moment, the fourth princess in disguise lowered her head and moved to my side with small steps. She reached out to hold the teapot and refilled my glass of water.Originally, seeing the fourth princess so close to me, my body couldn't help but feel a little stiff, but thinking that everything hadn't started yet, my heart relaxed a little.
The fourth princess was pampered and spoiled since she was a child, and she was never a master of serving others.At this time, help me pour some water, the hand holding the teapot twisted unsteadily, and a few drops of hot water spilled on the back of my hand.Unexpectedly, I didn't make a sound when I was burned, but the fourth princess threw down the teapot and screamed, reaching out and wiping the water on my hands with the sleeves.
Being held by the wrist by the fourth princess, my body froze, I stood up abruptly and threw the person away uncontrollably.The fourth princess was unprepared, she was thrown aside by me and bumped into the son of Wang Shangshu's family next to her.The princess knocked the prince down on the table in front of him, howling from the hot soup on the table.
Prince Wang's voice was not low, and the attention of the Zhengde Palace was naturally drawn to this side.Seeing this, I was really confused, and I was a little at a loss for a while.After the prince finished calling, he also knew that he had lost his composure, so he quickly knelt down on the ground with a pale face to plead guilty, and I, who was the trigger, also knelt down naturally.
The emperor on the dragon chair turned his head and saw the disguised fourth princess for the first time, and immediately understood what was going on.I noticed that Liang Chuyi's gaze had been lingering on the fourth princess, and I was secretly delighted. I glanced at the emperor, and hurriedly buried my head lower.
At this time, the father had already recognized the fourth princess. After taking a deep breath, he hurriedly knelt down and pleaded guilty to the emperor: "My son is naughty and disturbed the Holy Majesty. I hope the Emperor will forgive me."
Wang Shangshu was also pleading guilty with the old man. The emperor knew that the reason was on his daughter, so it was impossible to blame the old man and Wang Shangshu.He raised his hand to let us get up, gave the fourth princess who was biting his lip, and beckoned people to go over.
Seeing this, the fourth princess was slightly dissatisfied in her eyes.He turned his head and stared fiercely at me and the prince, pouted, and walked to the emperor with his clothes on.
Seeing the fourth princess leave, I couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.Turning back and sitting at the table, I looked at the situation in the hall brightly. When I saw the interest in Liang Chuyi's eyes when he looked at the fourth princess, I used the movement of drinking water to cover up the corners of my mouth.
The emperor loves his fourth daughter the most, seeing her messing around like this, he just reprimanded her for not knowing the rules.The fourth princess was not really angry when she saw the emperor.As soon as he rolled his eyes, he tugged on the emperor's sleeves and said coquettishly that he just wanted to see the demeanor of the eldest prince of Xiling Kingdom.
The fourth princess gave birth to a good skin, and the shy appearance made people feel happy, and it was difficult for people to care about her.The emperor liked the four princesses the most. When he saw his beloved daughter acting like a baby to him, he no longer cared about her rude behavior. He pinched the tip of her nose dotingly, and then let Eunuch Du put his head on his knees. A table for the four princesses to sit down.
Eunuch Du took people to set up tables and chairs for the fourth princess, and carefully helped the fourth princess bring her real personal maid.When Eunuch Du led the maid into the palace, Liang Chuyi stared closely at the woman, but when he saw that the woman raised her face, she was not the person he remembered, and a hint of disappointment flashed unconsciously in his eyes.
I looked at Liang Chuyi's expression from afar, thinking that the big fish had finally taken the bait.
With the four princesses at the side, the emperor kept smiling after a banquet.At the end of the banquet, the fourth princess got up and supported the emperor's arm and passed by the people who were kneeling on the ground. When she passed in front of my father and me, she turned her head to me and sneered.
At this moment, I have adjusted my mentality, and I don't feel anything when I see the sneer on the face of the fourth princess.After she helped the emperor go out, I stood up with everyone.
After exchanging pleasantries with everyone, my father took me to leave the palace and return home, but I happened to bump into Liang Chuyi when I walked to the gate of Zhengde Hall.I bowed down and apologized to Liang Chuyi. The other party frowned and looked at the direction in which the fourth princess was leaving, waved at me and then led them away without looking back.
Seeing people leave, I smiled and straightened up and brushed off the wrinkled hem of my clothes, then turned my head and said to my father, "Dad, the fish has already entered the net, and I need your help for the rest."
Three days later, the emperor held a reception banquet for Liang Chuyi, and all officials of the third rank and above in Beijing could bring people to attend.As the legitimate son of the Marquis of Anping, I will naturally go to this kind of occasion.
