The prince and his concubines have a little princess

Early the next morning, Zhao Qingzhi was wearing a pink dress and white embroidered shoes with dark patterns, and Tingting was standing in front of the flower hall, waiting gracefully.

Mrs. Xu stood aside and looked at her daughter in a daze. The daughter she was holding in her hands was going to get married on the sixth day of next month, and she would marry to the palace. If she was wronged, her family would have no way to stand out. Once she gets married, it will be bitter or sweet. It's fate.

"Mother, what's the matter with you?" Zhao Qingzhi asked, seeing her mother secretly wiping her tears, her heart tightened.

Mrs. Xu smiled and shook her head when she heard the words: "Mother is fine, mother just thinks that my daughter is about to get married, and mother is reluctant to part with it."

Although Zhao Qingzhi was looking forward to getting married, her eyes were still sore after hearing this, she gently held her mother's hand with her little hand: "Mother, Prince Jing's Mansion is not far away, my daughter will come back often."

"Nonsense." Mrs. Xu cast an angry look at her daughter, "In the future, you will be Princess Jing, how can you keep running to your mother's house and become a member of the royal family, so you must be cautious in everything you say and do."

Just as Xu finished speaking, the voice of the old lady came from behind.

"Your mother is right." The old lady approached slowly with a golden stick, "If you make a mistake, the entire Zhao family will be burdened by you, just say that you didn't return home last night, if it weren't for your good luck When you meet King Jing, you are afraid that the royal family will divorce you, so you must be cautious in the future, so as not to drag down the entire Zhao family."

Zhao Qingzhi smiled gracefully when she heard the words: "Grandma, don't worry."

"Well, I'm afraid you'll be bored on the road, so I'll take your fourth younger sister to be your companion on the road. It's getting late, let's go." The old lady said and walked out with a cane.

Zhao Zimo smiled at Zhao Qingzhi, then chased the old lady out.

Zhao Qingzhi shook her head helplessly, the old lady clearly wanted to take Zhao Zimo to show her face in the palace, but she said that she would accompany her on the way to relieve boredom.But Zhao Zimo had no enmity with her in the previous life, nor in this life, so it doesn't matter if they go together.

"Mother, let's go too." Zhao Qingzhi smiled and supported Xu Shi to go out.

At this time, the Longevity Palace had already set up food tables, and each small food table had delicacies carefully prepared by the imperial kitchen chef. The Queen Mother stood in front of Zhao Qingzhi's food table with great interest and personally matched the ingredients.

"Chang Le, replace Qingzhi's bird's nest with Sihong blood-enriching porridge, and cover it with a small porcelain lid. Don't let others find out the difference."

Chang Le responded with a smile: "Here."

"By the way, I ordered the imperial chef to add some venison to Qing Zhi's dish last night, did you add it?" The queen mother bent down and carefully looked at the dish in front of her, and asked.

"Queen Mother, look." Chang Xi picked up the chopsticks and picked up the noodles, revealing the venison inside.

"Yeah, not bad, not bad, did you put jujube in the Poria cocos cake?"

Chang Le said with a smile: "The servant girl asked the cook to catch it early in the morning according to the Queen Mother's order."

"That's good, let the imperial chef prepare it. When Qingzhi's child arrives, let them make sea bass immediately. This sea bass is mild in nature and sweet in taste. It can nourish the spleen, stomach, liver and kidney, and strengthen the muscles and bones. It is a good thing." The queen mother said. As he spoke, he walked towards the main seat, "By the way, it's time for Prince Jing to finish her work. Prepare chestnuts for her. Chestnuts are warm in nature, sweet in taste, and can nourish the kidneys and strengthen the waist."

"Your servant has written it down." Chang Xi said with a smile.

"By the way, let them add some fleece-flower root to the meals of King Jing and Qing Zhi, this is indispensable." The Queen Mother sat down slowly, "Just these first, and the rest are the same as what others serve."

"Here, I'll pass on the message, slave girl." Chang Xi said and left.

As soon as the meal was ready, a young eunuch outside hurried into the Longevity Palace, whispered in Chang Le's ear, and Chang Le walked up to the Empress Dowager with a smile: "Report to the Empress Dowager, the family members of the Zhao family have entered the palace to thank you, and the princess of another county It's here too."

The queen mother straightened her sleeves and said, "Show them to come in."

"Here." Chang Le turned and walked out.

When they were young, a group of members of the Zhao family came in one after another. The queen mother aimed at Zhao Qingzhi's legs and saw that he was walking in a natural posture.

"The minister's wife kowtowed to the queen mother, and it will be a thousand years old."

"The minister's daughter kowtowed to the queen mother, and it will be a thousand years old."

The Empress Dowager smiled and said, "Get up quickly, Changle, and give me your seat."

"Thank you, Queen Mother." Zhao Qingzhi lifted her skirt and stood up, and then, under Chang Le's guidance, helped Xu to sit in front of the food table next to Wang Min'er.

The queen mother looked at Wang Min'er, and asked with a smile: "Are the princesses of the county still used to returning to Beijing in the past few days?"

Wang Min'er stood up and replied: "Back to the Queen Mother, Min'er feels very cordial after returning to Beijing."

"If you can't bear it, just stay a few more days. It's rare for the county king to come to the capital. It's not too late to go back after staying for more than a month. When I was young, Ai's family went to talk to the emperor."

Wang Min'er heard the words and blessed her body: "Thank you, Queen Mother."

"Today is a family banquet, so there is no need to be formal. Sit down quickly." The queen mother said and looked at Xu Shi, "This is Qingzhi's mother, right? Looking at her appearance and posture, she is very similar. I think she was a first-class beauty when she was young." .”

"The empress dowager has praised you." Mrs. Xu stood up and replied.

"Sit down, sit down, Aijia and you are about to become in-laws as folks call it. It's not so polite to talk about family affairs between in-laws." The Queen Mother laughed.

"Yes." Xu responded and sat down slowly.

"The Empress is here, Concubine Shu is here!!!"

At this time, when the little eunuch shouted outside, the old lady took the lead and stood up one after another. For a while, everyone in the hall stood facing the outside except the queen mother.

The queen came slowly in a phoenix robe, stepped into the hall and walked forward in a serious manner.

"See empress empress, empress empress Wanfu, see imperial concubine empress, empress Jin'an." Everyone saluted in unison.

Zhao Qingzhi blessed herself with standard etiquette, felt a gaze fall on her, slowly raised her head, and saw the unkind gaze of Concubine Shu, the gaze seemed angry or resentful, Zhao Qingzhi couldn't help but froze for a moment. Concubine Shu has no grievances and no enmity. She has never met a few times in the previous life, and she must not offend her in this life. Why do you have such eyes?

"The concubine pays homage to the queen mother, and the queen mother is blessed with all blessings." The queen and the noble concubine Shu Yingying bowed down.

The queen mother smiled happily: "Get up, get up, how lively this person is, Chang Xi, hurry up and arrange a meal table for the queen and noble concubine."

Chang Xi heard the words while ordering the little eunuch to set up a food table, and at the same time ordered the maid to go to the imperial dining room to pass the message.

"Qingzhi, come, come to Ai's house." The Queen Mother waved to Zhao Qingzhi.

Zhao Qingzhi was still thinking about Concubine Shu, so she quickly collected her thoughts and walked over in a well-mannered manner.

"Empress, noble concubine, look, this is the concubine chosen by the Ai family for Jing Qiao." The queen mother smiled and took Zhao Qingzhi's hand, "From now on, you should get along well. If there is anything interesting in this palace, remember to call her .”

The queen heard this and said: "Don't worry, queen mother, everything depends on Jing Qiao's concubine."

Concubine Shu laughed at the side: "Mother, from now on Princess Jing will guard Jing Qiao, there must be more interesting things than in the palace. I'm afraid that in the future, Princess Jing will come to teach us new ways to play."

"Whether you take her to play or she teaches you how to play, it would be great if you can play together. The Ai family hopes that you are as close as a family. After all, the emperor and King Jing are both born to the Ai family." He waved his hand, "Okay, let's all take our seats."

Everyone heard the words and knelt down in front of the food table in front of them.

Concubine Shu glanced lightly at Zhao Qingzhi after taking her seat, this glance was just seen by Zhao Qingzhi, and she couldn't help but feel vigilant.

"Okay, everyone is here, let's start the banquet." The queen mother scooped up a spoonful of bird's nest, "Everyone, try the bird's nest, this is a tribute from Huaiyin, this bird's nest is first-class."

Zhao Qingzhi opened the small lid with a smile when she heard the words, she was taken aback when she saw that it wasn't a bird's nest inside, she turned her head slightly, and was taken aback again when she was prejudiced against Wang Miner's bowl, did she serve it wrong?

"Qingzhi, try it quickly, this bird's nest is very nourishing and good for your health." The queen mother smiled at Zhao Qingzhi.

"Here." Zhao Qingzhi picked up a spoon and lightly scooped a little into the corner of her mouth. The sweetness and herbal smell came to her face, and Zhao Qingzhi's face changed slightly. What is this?

Seeing that Zhao Qingzhi had eaten, the queen mother couldn't help showing a satisfied smile.

"Queen Mother, the Imperial Hospital has come to ask for your pulse as usual." Chang Le came from outside and said with a blessing.

"Oh, let's announce it." The queen mother wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, and took a quick look at Zhao Qingzhi.

Doctor Wang walked in with the medicine box on his back, head bowed halfway, and knelt down slowly: "I pay homage to the queen mother, who is a thousand years old."

The queen mother lightly opened her lips: "Get up."

"Thank you, Empress Dowager." Wang Taiyi got up and knelt down on one knee facing the queen and Concubine Shu, "I send my regards to the queen and Concubine Shu."

"Doctor Wang, ask the queen mother for her pulse." The queen said slowly.

"Here." Imperial Physician Wang got up and walked to the Empress Dowager, knelt on the ground, took out a handkerchief and put it on the Empress Dowager's wrist to get the pulse.

"How?" asked the Queen Mother.

"The Empress Dowager's phoenix body is all right." Doctor Wang withdrew her hand.

"It's good to be fine, the most important thing about this person is his body." The queen mother said and secretly glanced at Zhao Qingzhi, "Mr. Also take a pulse and adjust the body, the Ai family is still waiting to hold the little grandson."

Zhao Qingzhi was taken aback when she heard the words, then looked down at her 'bird's nest porridge', and instantly understood, her cheeks turned pink, the former queen mother was not in such a hurry.

"Here." Imperial Physician Wang walked to Zhao Qingzhi's side, "Princess Zhunjing, please extend your hand."

Seeing that everyone was staring at her intently, Zhao Qingzhi bit her lower lip and stretched out her arms.

Physician Wang knelt down on one knee and began to feel the pulse.

"His Royal Highness King Jing is here!!!"

At this time, Jiang Jingqiao walked in after hearing a loud shout from outside.

"See His Royal Highness King Jing." Everyone stood up and saluted.

Concubine Shu saw Jiang Jingqiao's eyes flicker for a moment, then they darkened again when she thought of something.

"Forget it." Jiang Jingqiao said, walking forward with a happy face, "My son, please greet the queen mother."

"Have you done everything that your imperial brother told you?" the queen mother asked.

Jiang Jingqiao said with a smile: "Don't worry, the empress, it's all done. I just entered the palace to return to the imperial brother. When I heard that the empress was holding a small banquet, I hurried over." .”

"Get up soon, the banquet just started, you just happened to be in time." The queen said slowly.

Jiang Jingqiao smiled, seeing Concubine Shu, she was slightly taken aback, and a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes: "Is the imperial concubine also there?"

Concubine Shu was stunned: "Why, can't I come?"

"It came well, but I was a little surprised." Jiang Jingqiao turned around after speaking, and was about to go to his seat when he saw the imperial doctor taking Zhao Qingzhi's pulse, and walked forward quickly, "What's the matter? What's wrong? ?"

The Queen Mother narrowed her eyes when she heard the words, didn't she feel uncomfortable?

Zhao Qingzhi blushed and shook her head.

"Ai's family asked the imperial physician to take the pulse, and asked Qingzhi to recuperate the body." The queen mother cleared her throat and said.

Jiang Jingqiao felt relieved when she heard that she was recuperating her body and was not in any discomfort. She went to Zhao Qingzhi and knelt down, opened the small lid, and saw that there were high-quality bird's nests inside, and said with a smile: "I heard that the King of Shengjun came to the capital to donate a batch to his mother. Waiting for the bird's nest, why don't you give a few to your ministers?"

"If you have something in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, go there to get it. As for the ones here in Ai's house..." The Queen Mother paused, "I won't give it."

Jiang Jingqiao was taken aback, so picky?

"Miss San, you have to open your stomach to eat today, otherwise it will be very difficult to eat this bird's nest from Huaiyin." Jiang Jingqiao looked into Zhao Qingzhi's bowl as he spoke, and was taken aback when he saw the darkness, and reached out to take it over. ,"What is this stuff?"

Zhao Qingzhi bit her lower lip lightly, feeling quite a headache, the mother and daughter opened her mouth with a sound, making her wish she had a hole to get in.
