Chapter 2438 Waste Princess 26

Men on the left and women on the right, the prince on the left and the princess on the right. Unexpectedly, Xining's seat was at the front, next to Princess Shu and the Sixth Princess Yu.

The daughters of Madam Jiang Shu and Madam Jiang Xuan were both ranked behind her.

Oh, by the way, she is now under the name of the Queen Mother. So her status is more noble than that of an ordinary concubine's daughter. For the Queen Mother's sake, she must be placed in the front.

Looking at the daughters born to the beautiful ladies with the surname Jiang, whose eyes were filled with jealousy and hatred, Xining secretly covered his forehead.

Why put my seat here? It's just like a target. It would be better to put it in the original place, not attracting attention. If you can't finish the food on the table, you can secretly pack it up and take it home.

But now I don't have to do this. The Queen Mother has ingredients in her kitchen, and she is allowed to use them at will. Even if it is expensive bird's nest or ginseng, she only needs to tell me and the housekeepers will replenish it.

Queen Liang Jiang, who was sitting at the same table with King Liang, looked around and saw that the Fourteenth Princess who had squeezed in the middle was particularly out of place. The more she looked at her, the more she disliked her. A concubine, born to a slave of Concubine Teng, was actually ranked behind her own noble daughter.

So she said with a fake smile: "Princess Mo is getting more and more beautiful as she grows up. The Queen Mother is really good at taking care of people."

By mentioning the Queen Mother, he could at least regain some face for his daughter, and also stir up Prince Liang's dissatisfaction with Madam Jiang Shu.

  The third princess Qian and the fifth princess Ai, born to Madam Jiang Shu, were fine, but Gongzi Zhong, who was sitting opposite, was furious. His two elder sisters were actually sitting behind the ones born to this slave girl. Didn't that mean that his mother was even worse than the slave girl?

Xining pretended not to hear or see anything, and just watched the dancers in the middle with a smile, occasionally picking up some food to chew.

Gong Zizhong couldn't help but said sarcastically, "Princess Mo is ignorant and only knows how to eat and drink. I wonder what program she has prepared for today?"

If you can't hear or see, whoever responds is a fool.

"Liang Mo!" Who is he looking down on? The young master was so angry that he called her by her name.

"Ah ah?" As if waking from a dream, his eyes were as clear and stupid as those of a college student.

Now everyone else couldn't help but raise their sleeves and giggle, watching the show with the mentality of watching a good show.

Since I can't escape, I'll take the challenge. Xining raised his hand and saluted: "Brother Gongzi Zhong, I was attracted by the dancer's dancing and didn't pay attention to what you said. Sorry."

Who is he trying to fool? The young master was so angry that he almost slammed the table, but at this time, Prince Liang and his stepmother were there, so he didn't dare to lose his temper no matter how irritating he was.

His eyes rolled and he said sarcastically, "They say you don't understand music, but you can appreciate dancing?"

Xining smiled and said, "The flowers must be beautiful when they bloom. These dancers are all of good age, with graceful figures. Even if you don't understand, it's pleasing to the eye to watch."

Gongzi Zhong was choked for a moment. He couldn't say that his father's dancers were ugly and didn't dance well, and the family banquets in the palace were usually prepared by Queen Liang Jiang. If he said something bad, it would be a slap in the face of Queen Liang Jiang.

Madam Ying Lan's son, Gong Ziwen, cupped his hands in a flattering manner: "These were all prepared by the Queen Mother. Thank you very much, Queen Mother."

King Liang had actually observed these dancers a long time ago. They were all ordinary women, not outstanding in appearance, but with decent figures. It was not Queen Liang Jiang, so how could the one she had prepared surpass her?

But since it has been mentioned, I will give it some face: "Thank you for your hard work, Queen."

Queen Liang Jiang didn't expect to be praised, and immediately smiled and said, "It's not hard for me. I just want to have fun with the king and the children. This is what I should do."

After saying this, he glanced at Gong Ziwen with a bit of gratitude. Although this kid was not born in the Jiang family, he was calm and sensible, knew when to say what, and had no ambition to seize the throne, so let him live.

He looked at Prince Chong again. When he was born, King Liang liked him very much, so he named him Chong. If he was not his eldest son, he would have been better off named Ji, which means "Sheji".

Later, the second legitimate daughter was born, and they were not given the same character, but the character "Kuang" (Kuang supporting the state of the country). The naming of legitimate princesses was very particular. The characters of the female character were on the side of the character "女", while the characters of the concubines were on the side of the character "草". The legitimate princesses were noble; the concubines were like grass, and would be married off as concubines in the future.

The fourteenth princess, Mo Gong, means the last. As the name suggests, she was intended to be the last child in the palace. Unfortunately, despite her wishes, three sons and two daughters were born. The King of Liang really liked beautiful women and needed her to sleep with him almost every day.

There is also an informant who reported that Madam Jiang Shu still often whispers in her son's ear that he looks like Prince Liang.

Thinking of this, Queen Liang Jiang had a faint smile on her face, but the coldness in her eyes increased dramatically.

It was a little distracting, but we couldn't forget the original intention. Gongzi Zhong stared at her and asked, "What program did Princess Mo prepare? We are very curious and looking forward to it."

"Don't be anxious, brother Gongzi Zhong. There is a difference between the old and the young. The brothers and sisters haven't shown themselves yet. How dare Moer jump over them?" She said it very respectfully and politely.

Princess Mo is a person who knows etiquette. No wonder the Queen Mother likes her. Prince Liang nodded and said, "Let's get started, Ji'er. You are the eldest brother and the crown prince. You should set an example."

"Yes!" The prince bowed and stood up. "I am not good at other things, so I will join my third brother to have fun on the Mid-Autumn Festival tonight. He will sing and I will play the zither."

After getting the promise, the prince played the zither and Prince Kuang began to sing.

The moon is bright, and the people are beautiful. I feel relieved from worry and tired from work.

The moon is out, and the beautiful people are here.

  The moon is bright, and the people are shining.

It is also possible to use lyrics from the Book of Songs to describe this situation.

Next, the eldest princess Shu and the sixth princess Yu danced together. After all, they were not dancers and did not rely on this to make a living. As noble ladies, it was already very good for them to be able to dance like this.

The legitimate princes and princesses sang, played the piano, and danced, which obviously caused problems for the other illegitimate princes and princesses.

The young master stood up again and bowed: "I am not as talented as my brothers, so I can only prepare the program."

After saying that, he clapped his hands, and the singing and dancing girl who had been preparing for a long time flew to the center like a butterfly and stood there.

They were all Madam Ying Lan's people. Madam Ying Lan's dowry was extremely generous. Not only did she have her own kitchen, but she also had her own singing and dancing girls, musicians, and even jugglers.

Looking at these dancers, whose looks were obviously much better than before, King Liang immediately became interested.

A high-pitched singing voice rang out: "When the country is in its prime, Haotian is its son. In fact, the right order has Zhou, and the thin words shock it..."

It is the "Ode to Zhou" in the "Book of Songs". The poem sings the praises of heaven for helping the King of Zhou to conquer the four directions and to pay tribute to the gods of mountains and rivers.

This trick is powerful. Even if you find more faults, you cannot be disrespectful to the Zhou emperor.

After the song, King Liang nodded: "Not bad."

His eyes rolled and he had an idea. He called the historian to record it: On a certain day of a certain year, a family banquet was held in the palace of King Liang. The six sons prepared "Ode to Zhou" again and ordered the palace people to sing it. King Liang and his family kowtowed to the emperor in the capital to express their gratitude to the Emperor of Zhou.

This document was sent to the Zhou emperor along with the tribute after the autumn harvest.

Xining was about to applaud. From a small show at a family dinner, it became a show of loyalty to the emperor. It actually elevated the matter to such a high level. It turns out that the old ones are the wisest.
