shock!The real daughter made the female supporting actress cry

Chapter 176 Rejection
Several wives heard the queen's subtext, and took up the words with a smile: "The prince is a dragon and a phoenix, and there is a girl who loves him, so why should the empress worry."

The girls who came with them all lowered their heads, blushing half their faces.His slightly trembling hands couldn't hide the excitement in his heart.

I just thought it was an ordinary blessing banquet, but I didn't know that there was such a splendor of wealth waiting for me.

Prince Qin Huaiyuan and the others have met before, he is as gentle as jade and looks good.Not to mention that he is in the position of the crown prince, even if he is placed in an ordinary wealthy family, it is quite exciting.

The queen also looked at the scene in front of her with a smile. A coldness flashed in her eyes, but it was fleeting and no one noticed.

Unlike other people who couldn't help but be overjoyed, Jiang's mother gave a "click" in her heart.The empress said that she was worried about the prince's marriage, but it was clearly aimed at Changning.

After all, the theory of Feng Ming was still put in the Queen's heart.

Jiang Luo stroked her temples and looked at the queen with a peachy face. She was quite confident in her appearance.

Jiang's mother was sitting on pins and needles, she just kept her head down and said nothing, but Jiang Changning's face showed no abnormality, and she even patted the back of Jiang Changyuan's hand comfortingly.

The flattering words of the ladies have already bit the bullet and can't continue, waiting and waiting for Mother Jiang to speak.Sure enough, the queen put down the teacup with a smile, looked at Jiang Changning and said, "Mrs. Jiang is very lucky, and all the girls in the family are so outstanding. I remember that Miss Jiang has no marriage contract now." , and at a very young age, but he is a good match for the crown prince, I wonder what Madam Jiang thinks?"

Mother Jiang's heart sank suddenly, and she said to herself: Here we come.

Seeing that the breathing of the whole room became lighter, and a group of ladies and ladies were all staring at her movements, Mother Jiang smiled slowly and said, "Your Majesty is absurd. Climb to the crown prince. Besides, sister Ning has been extremely stubborn since she was a child, and she can't make the decision with just a few words."

Seeing that the old lady was ungrateful and even went so far as to say that her daughter was mediocre in front of the queen in order to refuse the marriage, the people below took a cautious breath.

The queen snorted vaguely, and said in a cold voice, "Really? Since this marriage is a matter of personal decision, what does Miss Jiang think?"

Mother Jiang didn't expect the queen to be unwilling to give up after hearing this refusal, and asked Jiang Changning's idea.With a sullen face, he took a step back as if protecting her, Jiang Changning walked up to her from behind and walked side by side with her, standing still neither humble nor overbearing.

"It's Changning's honor to be favored by the empress. It's just that Changning's qualifications are mediocre, so it's really hard to match His Highness. There are many rumors about the divorce before, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince the public. Changning has self-knowledge, and I hope the empress will think about it."

After Jiang Changning mentioned it, the people below also remembered the divorce between Jiang's Marquis Mansion and the Duke's Mansion, and started whispering among themselves.

Jiang Changning and that Jiang mother deserved to be a family, and they didn't even care about their own reputation, and mentioned something about retiring the engagement in front of everyone.

Although it was a blunt statement, the meaning inside and outside the words was to refuse to marry the prince.Putting this matter on someone else's body, you have to kneel down and thank you, how could the mother and daughter of the Jiang family refuse so many times like snakes and scorpions, this is clearly a slap in the face of oneself.

Sure enough, the queen squeezed the teacup tightly and slammed it heavily on the table. The lid of the teacup flew off and fell on the table with a crisp sound.

The ladies below fell silent for a moment, not even daring to breathe.Even though it was a scorching summer day, the scene seemed to be frozen. A group of people didn't move at all. Only Jiang Changning gathered his sleeves as if no one else was responding.

The stern look in the queen's eyes flashed, and she was about to teach this girl who didn't know the heights of the sky and the earth, and before she could give an order, she began to spread a sentence: "Your Majesty is here——"

Wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, Emperor Jin'an was assisted and walked in.

His steps were vain, and his hair was half white.The slightly fat and old-sleeved Long Zhong didn't look as tough as before.

Even so, the majesty and sharpness in his eyes should not be underestimated after being in a high position all the year round.

A group of people rushed to the body as if they had been awakened, and turned around like a group of wheat blown down by a strong wind: "I have seen the emperor."

"Retire without courtesy."

Emperor Jin'an answered casually, and then looked at the empress who stood up with a displeased face and said in relief: "What's wrong with the empress? I heard that there will be a banquet today, so I thought it must be a joyful and harmonious gathering, so I came to see it. The banquet hasn't started yet, but what happened?"

When the emperor asked such a question, the people below were silent and did not dare to say more, for fear of offending the empress, but fortunately, the empress only dared to show them the expression on her face, and when she heard the emperor's question, she curled her lips: "The emperor is Where is it, the banquet is just about to begin, and it is a coincidence that the emperor is here."

The queen smiled, and the people below dared to put on a smile, as if the host and guest were enjoying themselves.

Emperor Jin'an had so many things to do every day, how could he have the time to attend their women's gathering, but he just talked about it, and after sitting for less than two quarters of an hour, he hurriedly took his attendants to the front court.

The words fell to the ground, and there was no reason to take them back.The queen called for the food to be served, and the vegetarian feast officially started from this moment.

In the garden, the curved water flows into the cup, and the landscaping is extremely beautiful.In order to prevent heatstroke, several large celadon vats were placed around, filled with neatly cut ice cubes, a layer of round water droplets floated on the porcelain surface, and some water mist floated up, adding to the heat in this scorching summer day. It's cool.

Although this banquet falls on the word "vegetarian", the dishes are full of variety and exquisite.

"Everyone, please sit down." The queen nodded in a benevolent manner, and a group of people dared to sit down one by one.

"I heard that the vegetarian feast in Ci'an Temple is a must. I specially invited the chef from Ci'an Temple to prepare this vegetarian feast. Everyone, let's try to see if it is as good as the rumors say."

The queen said lightly that the cook had been cooking vegetarian food for decades, and he had superb cooking skills. He used various cooking methods to make simple vegetarian dishes into exquisite and delicious dishes and placed them on the exquisite white jade plate. The index finger moved.

It's just that this dish fell into the eyes of the Jiang family's mother and daughter, but it seemed a bit like a grand banquet.

Who doesn't know that their family just came back from the Buddhist Association, and Master Kongchan gave them orders in Ci'an Temple. No matter how you look at it, this meal reminds them a little bit, even if the dishes look very exquisite, they also have some The taste is hard to swallow.

The queen's eyes were fixed on the Jiang family not far away. Seeing their hesitant expressions, she knew that she had listened to her heart before closing her eyes in satisfaction.

After not sitting for a long time, the queen got up quietly, saying that it was hot and sweaty and she wanted to go back and change into lighter clothes, and taught the rest of the people to eat and drink by themselves without any worries, and left the table. Only then did the servants heave a sigh of relief and really start to enjoy the food.

……

"What's the meaning of this, Queen Mother?"

Qin Huaiyuan stood up in disapproval. His sleeves knocked over the water glass beside him and wet the corners of his sleeves.

But he didn't realize it, he just frowned and looked at the opposite person.

This person was the queen who just claimed to change her clothes and leave the banquet. She didn't want to change her clothes, but she just found an excuse to come to see Qin Huaiyuan.

The queen turned a deaf ear to his reaction, touched the long gold-carved finger protector on her hand and said in a calm voice, "Don't you know what I mean? I know you are pure and kind and don't want to do such a thing, but you have to do it No. My people have already been arranged, and you don’t need to make any other preparations, you just need to cooperate.”

The empress still couldn't let go of the fact that Jiang Changning was in charge of the phoenix's life, regardless of whether it was true or not, but if there was any possibility, she would tie him tightly to Huaiyuan to ensure that Huaiyuan's throne would not be threatened in any way.

Qin Huaiyuan was silent for a moment, he knew that Qin Huaisu had some personal relationship with that girl from Jiang's family, this taught him how to do things like beating mandarin ducks to get in the way.

The empress glanced at his expression, and gave another harsh medicine: "There is only one chance, you must seize it. Jiang Changning has a close relationship with the Yan Wang, and your father's heart has been lost. He is old now. I believe in ghosts and gods the most, and I also take Kong Chan very seriously. Are you really willing to give up the throne? Sitting on a dragon chair is the most taboo to act emotionally. It is difficult for a soft-hearted person to become a master. If you still have a little bit of ambition, you should do it early Break the benevolence of these women!"

Qin Huaisu clenched his fists. The queen's words had not entered his heart. That day Kong Chan ordered him to be there. Everyone didn't know that Kong Chan had said that apart from Jiang Changning's fate, there was Qin Huai If the fate is extremely expensive.

There are two factions in the court who hold their own opinions. Some officials tend to get closer to Qin Huaisu. If these rumors spread...

He closed his eyes and said in a muffled voice, "I see."

Seeing that he agreed, the queen stood up and walked towards the banquet in satisfaction. Halfway through the journey, she remembered the excuse she had just made and turned her head back to the bedroom to change clothes casually.

When she returned to the banquet, these people had already half-fed themselves while she was away, and then moved their chopsticks slowly.

The queen clapped her hands, and the maid brought up a jug of wine. The body of the wine bottle was brightly colored enamel, and the round belly was filled with wine. The slender spout was flattened into a duckbill shape.

"A few days ago, the emperor received a tribute from Pi Yusi, including their special craft wine, and today I just have the opportunity to taste it with you."

As he said that, several more maids came up with wine jugs and filled the wine glasses for all the guests present.

Those present who could drink and those who could not drink all resolutely poured it into their stomachs. The foreign wine was not as strong as the local wine, which was light and mellow, and those who drank it blushed and almost lost their minds.

Jiang's mother smelled the pungent wine in the glass and felt it was hot. The spicy smell filled her mind, and she hesitated for a while with her raised hand.

Naturally, this drink was not a problem when she was young, but now that she is getting older, her body is not as good as before, and headaches and brain fever are common.

"Give it to me, mother."

Jiang Changning drank the wine in his glass, and took the wine from Mother Jiang's hand.

Naturally, the wine given by the queen couldn't be kept empty, but Mother Jiang couldn't use the wine, so Jiang Changning thought of doing it for her while no one was watching.But she didn't know that someone was watching her from beginning to end.

Seeing Jiang Changning drank both glasses of wine, the queen said lightly, "Why did Miss Jiang drink old lady Jiang's wine? But she likes this fine wine? Come here, refill it for Miss Jiang—"

Before Jiang Changning could refuse, the maid next to her aimed at the wine glass she had set aside and filled it up, and spilled two drops on the table because it was poured in a hurry.

"Sister Ning..." Mother Jiang felt guilty, if it wasn't for her, Sister Ning wouldn't have had to drink these two glasses of spicy wine.The queen obviously blamed them Jiang's mother and daughter for deliberately punishing them because of her face.

Jiang Changning looked at her and silently comforted her, took a drink from his glass and turned the empty glass down to show her to the queen: "Thank you, Ma'am, for your kindness."

The queen's eyes narrowed, annoyed at her ignorance and satisfied with her cooperation, and unexpectedly asked someone to pour a few more glasses.

It wasn't until Jiang Changning's face was a little blush from the overwhelmed alcohol that Shi Shiran's eyes began to blur. Help Miss Jiang go to the wing to rest and sober up."

As soon as the queen finished speaking, Mother Jiang stood up quickly, and said with a flattered expression on her face, "How can I bother my mother, Chang Ning doesn't know the rules, and now I'm so drunk, I'm afraid it will ruin my spirit. The old man will send her back to the mansion, and he will teach her the rules."

Mother Jiang and Jiang Changning refuted her face again and again. The queen had already endured to the limit, and now seeing that the big event was about to happen, Mother Jiang still wanted to be a hindrance. Did you just come and go as soon as you said it? Or are there some monsters and goblins in my palace that make you taboo?"

The queen lost her temper so much that Mother Jiang couldn't speak.What she said was very serious, if the emperor heard it, let alone the whole Jiang family, maybe Jiang Changbai's official career would come to an end.

Some wives and noble daughters gloated and laughed out loud.Could it be that one or two of the people in Jiang's mansion have brain problems.

At the moment when the sword was on the verge of breaking out, Jiang Changning stood up staggeringly, looking as if he could not bear the strength of alcohol.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. Mother was too careful because she valued Your Majesty and her vegetarian feast. This is the fault of my servant, not my mother." Jiang Changning's cheeks were slightly red, and his eyes sparkled.Even the queen who has seen countless beauties has to admit that her color is excellent.

She was also slightly fortunate that such a woman did not enter the palace.

"Your Majesty's kindness, how can I refuse it. The servant girl thanked your Majesty here."

Turning her head and smiling at Mother Jiang, she said, "Mother, don't worry, my daughter will come back as soon as she goes."

Jiang Changning's words at least made the queen restrain her anger.She asked a maid in her palace to accompany Jiang Changning to the side hall.

Under the surprised and jealous eyes of the girls, Jiang Changning walked further and further away.

As soon as Jiang Changning left, Jiang Changyuan moved closer to Mother Jiang.On the side, Jiang Luo's face was so gloomy that she could drip water, and she was really a little scared when she saw it.
