Chapter 715
Queen Mother Qian, who has always been inconsistent with the queen, sat upright in the main seat, with the queen sitting on the side. Two rows of seats below, the first seat from the left was Princess Duanze, and the position opposite her was empty. Princess Duanze was the crown princess, and Princess Heng was the opposite of the crown princess. Further down were some royal family members, and various county princesses with titles, and Mingruo could not tell the difference.
After everyone greeted each other, Ming Ruo sat down opposite Princess Duanze, and the palace maid held a fragrant tea.
Queen Mother Qian's eyes fell on Mingruo's palace outfit, and her eyes narrowed slightly: "Qinghuang's clothes... aren't that in line with the rules?"
The prince and the princess can embroider peonies and blue birds on their robe, and the embroidering of phoenixes is obviously a transgression.
"Ah?" Ming Ruo looked like he was unaware of something wrong. "The clothes were given by his father. He said that I was wearing them when attending the palace banquet... I'm afraid that Eunuch Hai took the wrong clothes?" (Ming Ruo put his hands on his hips: I don't take the blame. Whoever is strong in his head will ask the Emperor to argue with him!)
Once Mingruo said this, no one dared to speak again. With the mad temper of the Supreme Emperor, even if there is a mistake, whoever says he will be unlucky!
Queen Mother Qian didn't dare to make trouble on Tai Sui's head, and looked at the queen with a meaningful look. She was wearing other people's phoenix robe. Do you still have to stand up for you?
When the queen saw Princess Yun wearing a "phoenix robe", she felt unhappy in her heart, but she knew it was a reward from the Supreme Emperor, and the little flame in her heart was instantly extinguished - it was the New Year, and she was full and she was over, so she went to touch the Supreme Emperor's bad temper.
The queen's eyes were slightly closed and she began to instruct Aunt Qiu Yun to worship all the matters of her ancestors.
Everyone in the imperial capital knows that the third prince failed to fight for the throne and angered the emperor. I am afraid that after the empress dowager's death, the entire Qian family will be over. Qian Taishi has been saying that he is sick and avoids his family at home, and he dare not go to the morning court.
When several royal princesses saw that the queen did not want to pursue the "phoenix robe", they were very eye-catching and changed the topic. When they talked about the princess' belly, they all said that they seemed to be giving birth to the eldest grandson of the emperor.
Mingruo sat there, being a quiet beauty. She was so bored that she picked up the teacup and took a sip.
"On the eighth day of the first lunar month, our mansion will be held. Qinghuang will come and have fun. Yu Ning has prepared riddles and pots, as well as other interesting things." Princess Duanze invited Ming Ruo to visit the mansion.
"Okay." Ming Ruo thought Princess Ningping was straightforward and cute. On the day of Xiaonian, the third aunt went to Prince Duanze's mansion to make a big appointment. After some discussion, the two families set the wedding date in April. Princess Ningping would soon marry into the Duke's mansion and become a real relative.
In Qifeng Palace, there is a peaceful and joyful New Year Festival, but the Queen Mother Qian is not cared about, and it seems a little lonely.
Queen Mother Qian doesn’t plan to come to Japan today, but in the cold palace, the third prince is unconscious. Concubine Qian was beaten half to death by a madman, and she can’t even get out of bed now. The only one who can do it can and can’t walk away from the princess, looking crazy again...
Although Empress Dowager Qian arranged for someone to take care of her, if these three people continue like this, it will probably not take long to die in the cold palace.
Emperor Danxu issued an oral order that no one could approach the cold palace. Empress Dowager Qian wanted to take advantage of the New Year's Eve to let Emperor Danxu let her go and allow her to send a doctor and two maids to serve her.
As soon as the hour arrived, the queen and the queen mother led all the women to the first hall to serve tribute. Everyone first burned incense in the side hall, and then entered the main hall.
Mingruo secretly looked at the portraits of the ancestors worshipped above - the soul painter painted people, one by one, with wide robes, big sleeves, faces like silver plates, not like emperors and empresses, but more like fat dolls in New Year paintings.
All kinds of fresh and dry tributes were passed forward one by one by one. Mingruo handed them to the queen through Mingruo's hand, and Princess Duanze handed them to the queen mother on the other side. Each tribute was in a specific position. The queen and the queen were very skilled in their business and took half an hour to take care of all the tributes.
The queen and the queen mother led everyone to the side hall. Thirty-six monks and thirty-six Taoist priests entered the hall, crossed their legs and began to pray.
Mingruo sat in the side hall, holding a warm hand stove, and listening to the monks chanting scriptures in the main hall, she was a little sleepy. Her eyes closed slightly, and her expression seemed to be listening to the Dharma. However, Madam Dong and Zi Su saw that the princess was taking a nap.
Mingruo discovered that this sutra had been chanting much longer than the Buddhist sutra. He opened his eyes and guessed that it was almost noon.
At the same time, the people who went to Taimiao to worship had successfully embarked on their way home.
The journey was particularly smooth, and the Supreme Emperor was a little confused - his stupid son had been busy for a long time, would he not dare to take action when the matter was about to come?
You can already see the Shili Pavilion outside the city ahead. Suddenly, a few big magpies suddenly flew out of the woods next to them, making quarrels.
Si Haochen pulled out the long soft sword that was plated around his waist and whispered: "Here you come."
A group of men in black rushed out of the forest and rushed towards the Supreme Emperor's carriage. The Supreme Emperor was also very determined, not only did he not panic, but he also drew out his sword and looked eager to try.
A feather arrow shot out of the woods and shot straight into the curtain, but made a "dou" sound.
The Emperor of the Supreme Emperor stroked his beard: "This iron nanmu door panel is really easy to use."
Then there were a few more "du" and "du" sounds, and the feather arrows shot on the carriage, as if they were hit by a stone. The arrow clusters could not penetrate at all and fell to the ground one after another.
The feather arrows could not penetrate the carriage, and the secret guards led by Prince Yun were extremely fierce. The man in black felt that he had no idea how to start and threw a "poisonous smoke cartridge" at the carriage.
The "poisonous smoke cartridge" exploded in front of the horse, and the yellow-green smoke rose, which scared the horses to neigh.
Jun Che also threw a "smoke bomb" out of the carriage. The junior sister said that the poison that can be seen on the market can be solved by the "smoke bomb".
The Supreme Emperor looked at the purple-red smoke spreading around in the shape of a lotus... It looked even more 'poisonous' than the 'poison smoke' produced by the man in black, so he had to speak weakly: "The national master is sure that the antidote that was thrown down?"
"Of course it's OK." Jun Che pointed to the horse who had just knelt on the ground, and now he has completely stood up.
"Okay." The Supreme Emperor felt that he had seen such a long life. It was the first time he saw such an antidote that looked like a 'poison'.
I couldn't help but feel a little admiration for the pharmacist who refined this "anti-drug". I was definitely not an ordinary person who could come up with this "color matching".
Linglong shook her small wings: Sorry, the nest is not a human being. However, our "antigen" scale powder is just this color!
The Supreme Emperor held the sword and rushed out, turned around and looked at the two young and strong men, sitting steadily in the carriage: "Don't you go down and kill the enemy?"
"My robe is changed early, and it will be bad if it splashes with blood." His Highness Prince Yun's determination to wear couple outfits with the princess was not allowed to happen.
