Chapter 51 - Confrontation at the dinner
I was taken aback and hurried forward. Pei Yuanzhang had already raised his head. His cold eyes were like swords. I subconsciously tilted my head to avoid it, but I saw Pei Yuanxiu looking at me with wide eyes, like Surprise.
I walked to the middle of the banquet and knelt down and said, “Slave meets the emperor, live long live, live with the queen’s concubine, live long live.”
“Who are you and what are you standing there for?”
“Slave–“
When I was about to speak, I saw Yao Yingxue stood up and said, “Hui Niangniu, she is a maid of embarrassment, because she suffered a bit of injury to her body, and embarrassed her so that she would not use it for rest. Go to the stove and she brought it. “
“Oh, yes.” The queen nodded.
I knelt down in the middle of the night banquet, and the surroundings were quiet. I do n’t know how many eyes are looking at me at the moment. I can see that my hair is straight. I just want to leave here quickly, and I am preparing to send the heater to Yao Yingxue. In my hand, I saw Empress Yin got up and walked towards me.
She reached up and raised my chin, looked at it for a while, and suddenly smiled and said, “To say that this palace is still the third prince who is most proficient, Ying Xue is a big beauty. I did not expect that even the servants around her were like this. Water spirit. “
Then, she turned to look at the princes sitting on both sides: “You, you should learn.”
“The mother-in-law praised.”
As soon as Pei Yuanzhang spoke, it was as if a cold wind was blowing, and the originally lively atmosphere of the whole night feast brought some coldness.
At this time, one person said: “There are more beautiful women around the third brother. After the father and mother, you are too underestimated.”
The person who said this was Pei Yuanchen, the fourth prince sitting next to the prince, and beside him were six princesses Pei Yuanzhen, two of whom were milk compatriots, because their mother Zhao Shuyuan was the dowry of Empress Yin and served the emperor during her pregnancy. Sealed, so their mother and son were obedient to Queen Yin and Prince Edward, and they especially attached themselves.
Pei Yuanzhang looked up coldly: “fourth child, what do you mean?”
“It’s not interesting, third brother, I’m bragging about you.”
“Praise me?” He sneered: “My third brother wanted to boast of you. He Qingzhou was copied. His son should have been dispatched for three thousand miles to serve as a slave. How did he get a servant at your house? “
Pei Yuanchen’s face suddenly changed: “You–“
People around were also taken aback, including me kneeling in the center. The prince of the four princes, Pei Yuanchen, has long heard of it. He didn’t expect it to be true, and even the emperor who has been drinking has frowned. He said, “You are too ridiculous, even sin. You dare to protect your son! “
Pei Yuanchen got up quickly and said, “Father Emperor, sons and daughters dare not!”
“Dare? Then you say, what’s going on with He Qingzhou’s son!”
Pei Yuanchen’s complexion was red and white for a while, and he couldn’t catch the mouth. At this time, Prince Pei Yuanxiu stood up and smiled slightly: “The father and the emperor don’t have to be angry, there is a reason for the fourth brother to do this.”
“what reason?”
“The emperor also knows that the gentry in the south always resisted the court and did everything they could. He Qingzhou used poems to ridicule, and the sin was unforgivable. Although the emperor copied his home, those in the south did not give up. Etiquette and Taoism are writing articles, and they all support He Qingzhou. “
“Oh?”
“The fourth brother did this, but he told those people by this incident that Ziyun Shiyun’s dignity was given by the royal family. Only the dignity of the heavenly family can not be violated.”
