[Comprehensive Wear] It's hard to be a princess

Chapter 171 I'm a Princess in the Red Mansion 42

No matter what kind of family it is, even if it is the royal family, if the princess returns after getting married, it is no different from being a guest.This year's palace banquet, in the harem, Concubine Zhen seemed to be sitting at the front, although she was not sitting side by side with Emperor Qianyuan, but the seat she was sitting was almost the position of a noble concubine.If this is a palace banquet in the harem, it's fine, there are still a thousand clans at the scene!This is also the rule set by Emperor Taiu. After all, the clan and the royal family are also a family, and the family should not care too much about the difference between men and women. Therefore, every New Year's Eve palace banquet, concubines and princes, counties, and concubines of the clan will attend.Only at the official banquet on the first day of the first lunar month, the front court and the rear palace will be separated.

Such seating arrangements at such banquets were naturally acquiesced by Emperor Qianyuan. The concubines in the harem all gritted their teeth with hatred. Several of them followed Emperor Qianyuan in his hidden mansion. In terms of seniority, in terms of background , which one is not better than Concubine Zhen.Back then Concubine Rou was fine, even though she was a concubine, she came from the Prince's Mansion of Xining County, but now there is a Concubine Zhen, who has nothing but a lovely and pitiful appearance, in the end, it confuses Emperor Qianyuan So much so that they came from behind, which made them feel very unfair.

It's just that today is different from the past. If Emperor Qianyuan had to worry about the forces behind these old people in the palace when he first ascended the throne, now, Emperor Qianyuan has long been arbitrary, so there is no need to do anything like when he first ascended the throne. The "harem" has ruled the country, and you can spoil whoever you like at will.But now, the one he likes the most is obviously Concubine Zhen.

Living in Yiqi, raising Yiyi, Concubine Zhen was raised by pampering when she was at home, and now she is protected and pampered by Emperor Qianyuan in the palace. Although she is in her 20s, she still looks like an innocent girl , of course, because of his high position, he also has a little more dignity on his body. Now he is sitting on the side of Emperor Qianyuan. From the bottom, he looks like the lord of the Six Palaces. After many people feel this, , couldn't help but looked at Tu Jingchen and Feng Yu.

In the end, the brother and sister sat there, talking and laughing at Yanyan, with an airtight expression.Tu Jingchen was still there whispering softly to the servants, telling them to take care of the young princes and princesses carefully, not to let them eat something cold, drink secretly or something.As for Feng Yu, sitting with Liu Fu, the husband and wife were talking quietly, instead of looking at each other and smiling, it was obvious that the young couple had a very deep relationship.In short, the two descendants of the Yuan Dynasty did not say a word, and even if other people had any ideas, they could only die down!However, if you think about it carefully, this is also understandable. These two are the descendants of the Empress Yuan. Even if Concubine Zhen is named empress in the future, she will still be the successor, or the successor of Fuzheng. Naturally, in terms of status, she cannot compare with the Empress Yuan.Moreover, the age difference between Tu Jingyu and Tu Jingchen was more than 20 years old, so naturally Tu Jingchen would not feel that Tu Jingyu was a threat.

But for other concubines and their children, it is not a good thing to have multiple bosses on their heads.For example, Tu Jingping and Tu Jingning, they are very restless at the moment. If Concubine Zhen goes further, their mother and concubine will be inferior to others, and they will bow their heads again when they are born. what!

Emperor Qianyuan just pretended that he didn't know the following thoughts, or that he didn't need to care about them at all. Therefore, he still sat high above, listening to the congratulations from the sons, daughters and clan below with a smile, making people more suspicious of him. I want to stand up!

Concubine Zhen also thought so, but it was not good for her to ask Emperor Qianyuan directly. She had always been a little girl who was a little bird and dependent, so naturally she couldn't show too much enthusiasm for power. You can also say that she is looked down upon by others because of her low status, but now among the sixth house, she is already the serious head of the first house, and she is ranked second only to the queen. If you are bullied, you are really talking nonsense with your eyes open.

However, there are also some people who want to be opportunistic and want to mention the matter of Li Hou in the court. In fact, it is not that no one has mentioned it over the years. Emperor Qianyuan established a new empress again, but Emperor Qianyuan shirked it all!Now how many years have passed since the Empress Yuan passed away, no matter how deep the Emperor Qianyuan's affection for the Empress Yuan is, it's almost the same!After the death of the main wife of a folk family, those who have some money have to marry a surname. When it comes to Emperor Qianyuan, he is a majestic ninety-five-year-old, and he can't just leave the post in vain for the sake of the Empress Yuan.Therefore, many people began to secretly make up their minds.

The process of a palace banquet is the same as in previous years. Feng Yu is a married person, and it is not good to continue to mix with those little princes and princesses to set off fireworks, so when the palace banquet is in the later stage, she can only sit there, with the people sitting beside her. Those people spoke without saying a word.

With Fengyu's status, no one would pour wine into Fengyu, but as the new son-in-law, Liu Fu would inevitably be teased by the elders and peers in the clan. Fortunately, the drinks used in palace banquets were never hard liquor, but mostly alcoholic beverages. If you drink too much rice wine or fruit wine, you will not be intoxicated. Therefore, although Liu Fu has been drunk a lot, he is only slightly drunk at the moment, but his eyes are already hazy. He was originally born with a pair of peach blossom eyes. , now his eyes are rolling, and he looks more and more romantic.

However, Liu Fu was still sober. After the palace banquet was over, he joined hands with Feng Yu to bid farewell to everyone, and then walked out of the palace step by step, and got into his own carriage.

"Pour a bowl of hangover soup to the son-in-law!" Feng Yu ordered after getting into the car and sitting down.Liu Fu has been blown by the cold wind for a while now, and has become a little sober, but when he saw the hangover soup being brought over, he took it smoothly, drank a bowl, and then exhaled comfortably.

"It's okay for you to be like this today, but you can't be like this at the banquet tomorrow!" Feng Yu reminded, "Because we are all clansmen today, the food and drink are also meticulous. They can all be eaten, but tomorrow will not be such a good thing! I heard from the prince’s brother that when the banquet officially starts, the dishes on the table will be almost cold, so don’t force yourself to eat, drink a bowl before going out Ginseng soup, those vegetables that can be eaten can be eaten for a few mouthfuls, and the same is true for wine, don’t drink if you can’t, the people around you are either son-in-law or clan relatives, they all know it well, you just follow suit!"

Listening to Feng Yu's chanting, Liu Fu's expression became more and more gentle, he nodded, and said with a smile: "Okay, my princess, I will obey you!"

Feng Yu gave him a sideways glance: "Okay, I will know how to be glib!"

After returning to the princess mansion to wash and change clothes, I had to get up again before I slept for a long time. Fortunately, it was only these two times a year, otherwise, I really couldn't hold on!For example, at this time of year, there are always some older wives reporting illness, just because they are worried that they will not be able to hold on, and the royal family will never veto it. After all, if there is really something wrong with it, the beginning of the new year will be bad luck!

Feng Yu went to the harem as usual, and Liu Fu went forward.Fengyu walked a few steps here, and met the princess who was probably waiting for her specially. The princess smiled and waved. She likes this sister-in-law very much. I was busy, so I waited for Feng Yu to come over at this moment, the two saluted each other, Feng Yu smiled and said: "It's a sin to bother my sister-in-law to wait for me here!"

The princess smiled and said: "You girl, you can talk nonsense! Come on, it's very cold outside, let's go in and talk!"

Originally, there was a process for the queen to bring the harem concubines to sacrifice, but the middle palace has not been owned for many years, so this matter is saved. The crown princess can manage part of the palace affairs in the palace, but this kind of sacrificial matter, if the crown princess Intervention has very obvious political significance. Therefore, this process has not been resumed over the years. Therefore, compared with the solemnity before, the harem is relatively more relaxed.After all, in the past, wives from inside and outside had to pay homage to the queen. Now that there is no queen, even a noble concubine can't afford such a congratulations. Therefore, another link is saved. The empty seat on the main hall that symbolizes the empress bows down, and then you can sit in your own seat, or even find a few people with good relationships to talk together, and wait for the worship ceremony ahead to end. This harem can also hold a banquet.

The concubines of the harem gathered together in groups of five, and Concubine Zhen already had some fans. Some young concubines surrounded Concubine Zhen to curry favor, and the Crown Princess dragged Feng Yu to talk, after all, She is not familiar with these sisters-in-law, and she has always been superficially polite. After all, these uncles are not easy-going lamps. Even if their princess has a heart, it is not good to get too close to the princess. On the outside, they all have a polite look, as long as they can live with face.The Crown Princess listened to the Prince's words before, and took good care of the unmarried princesses, so now she asked those princesses to sit with Feng Yu.Feng Yu is actually not very familiar with these sisters, but as long as she is willing, it is easy to establish a good relationship with them.Since having a concubine Zhen, it is rare for other concubines in the harem to have a successful life. After all, Emperor Qianyuan is not too young to live a life of singing and singing every night, and most of his energy is spent on concubine Zhen. The leftovers are cold and broiled.As for the princes and princesses who were born later, Emperor Qianyuan probably couldn't even remember their names and ages, so naturally they could only be a little transparent in the palace.After the crown princess took charge of the palace affairs, she first set the rules for these princes and princesses, and no one was allowed to despise. Therefore, among these sisters-in-law and uncles, the crown princess is a typical good sister-in-law.

Now the Crown Princess is taking the lead, and Feng Yu and these younger sisters will soon get acquainted.After chatting for a long time, when the melon seeds were knocked off a large plate, the news came from the front that the banquet was ready, and everyone took their seats. After going through the procedure of toasting, the atmosphere became relaxed again.This kind of thing would never go wrong in previous years, but this year, it happened earlier.
