Chapter 1456 (1/2)
There used to be a rule in Baihua garden. Every year, the queen or the Empress Dowager would choose a famous family to hold the feast. Since the Empress Dowager was sent to the palace to recuperate and the queen disappeared for several years, this rule has not been continued. Ye Zhen is going to hold a banquet in Baihua garden. There is a lot of stir in Kyoto. Everyone knows what the Queen's mother is for I want to choose a companion for the prince and the princess.
In addition to accompanying reading, will you pick a few young and beautiful concubines for the emperor? This idea is not only thought of by one person, many people have such an idea. After all, the Queen's mother has been married to the emperor for many years. Even if the Queen's mother grows more and more beautiful, she will always be tired of it. Besides, beauties are not only attracted by beauty, but also fall in love with each other.
”Mother, why hasn't she come yet?” In a corner of the garden of flowers, the girls in their prime of life look up to the front. They have come here early, but they have not seen anyone in the palace.
”Sit down, the queen will come when she comes.” Mrs. Ruan gave her daughter a warning look.
Ruan Xiuzhen said in a low voice, ”mother, will the Emperor today also Where's the flower garden? ”
”Have you forgotten what your father said? What grandfather said to you must be forgotten from your mind. Don't mention it again Mrs. Ruan scolded sharply. She didn't want to take her daughter to the hundred gardens today. She was afraid that she still had some strange thoughts in her mind. She said at home that she didn't want to think about it any more. She followed her on a blind date these days. How could she say such a thing.
”Niang, I'm just curious. I don't think much about it.” Ruan Xiuzhen said in a low voice that her delicate face was clear and bright, and there was no shame and expectation when talking about the emperor.
Mrs. Ruan looked at her for a while, and then nodded at ease. ”Today we are here for maoge'er. If he can become the companion of the prince's highness, he will not have to worry about his future. You are his aunt. Look at him more and stop bumping into people who shouldn't have collided.”
Last time in the hunting ground, Ruan Zimao was present. Because of this, Ruan's family was still trembling. After several days, Ruan Jinghua went to the palace to make amends in person. Fortunately, the emperor did not blame him, and the empress still sent messages for them to come to the banquet, hoping that the prince would not remember it.
”Niang, the child forgets a lot, how old is the prince, he will not remember the hunting ground.” Ruan Xiuzhen said placidly.
I hope so.
Mrs. Ruan raised her eyes and didn't see her grandson. ”You sit here. I'll go to see maoge'er. I don't know where to go again.”
”Niang, what are you worried about? It must be the elder sister-in-law who went to see with her.” Ruan Xiuzhen's tone was somewhat disdainful. Her sister-in-law, Lin, was not of high birth. When she had a chance to meet those ladies in Kyoto, she did not know that she was being ridiculed behind her back.
If my father didn't join the cabinet until he was middle-aged, how could he have arranged such a marriage for the elder brother.
Ruan Xiuzhen felt that with her present status and appearance, she would definitely marry a more dignified person in the future, but the one she wanted to marry was hard to get close to.
”Jane, why are you sitting here alone?” A gorgeous woman came up and interrupted Ruan Xiuzhen's meditation.
Ruan Xiuzhen looked up and immediately stood up, ”sister jing'er.”
It was Lu jing'er, who was not the other person. Now the fifth Prince's side concubine, she looked at Ruan Xiuzhen with a smile. ”I saw you from a distance. I saw several little girls chatting over there. Why don't you go there?”
”They're talking about food and play. I'm not interested.” Ruan Xiuzhen frowned and said, ”sister jing'er, did you bring brother bang?”
