After marrying wrongly, I became the general's white moonlight

Chapter 284 Banquet in the Prince's Mansion

The second prince and concubine Zhang felt strange, the pregnant concubine was clearly Concubine Jiang, why did the second prince come to see her?
"Why are you interested in coming to my place, Your Highness?"

Mrs. Zhang was puzzled, but still showed a flattered look.

The second prince took Zhang's hand affectionately, "My concubine, my prince is busy these days, and I neglected you, my concubine won't blame me, right?"

Zhang smiled slightly, "Where is your Highness, government affairs are important. Your Highness is the prince of Dashun, so he should share the emperor's worries. These are what concubines should do."

As she said that, Mrs. Zhang pulled out her hand calmly, and handed the second prince a bowl of hot tea.

But in fact, she wished that the second prince would be too busy!
When Zhang first married the second prince, she was sincere, but gradually she saw through the cold heart of the second prince. There was no love between husband and wife, it was just a marriage of interests.

So for so many years, Zhang has already figured out the second prince's mind, and I am afraid that he needs to come forward because of something, otherwise the second prince would not come to see her.

"Your Highness is drinking tea. Your Highness has encountered some difficulties. I don't know if I can help His Highness."

Zhang said with the indifference in his eyes.

This is what the second prince was waiting for, so it's better to get straight to the point, so that he doesn't have to spend his brains trying to get the conversation out of the way.

"My concubine is really smart, my prince really has something to do, and this matter, only my concubine can share my worries."

Mrs. Zhang said, "Your Highness, please tell me that it is a concubine's honor to share His Highness's worries."

"That's good." The second prince said, "Actually, the prince came here for the side concubine. The doctor felt the pulse and said that the concubine's pregnancy had been stable for three months. It happened that the prince had just recovered from a long illness. Taking this opportunity to add joy to the mansion, how about holding a banquet?"

Finding a homeless man was already a matter before Pei Mo fell off the cliff, and at this time Pei Mo returned to the capital safely.

Concubine Jiang's baby had been hidden for three months. If there was no Wude, this child might not be discovered until Concubine Jiang's belly grew.

I don't know whether to say Jiang side concubine's luck is good or bad.

This may be a trick of good fortune. If Concubine Jiang could not seduce the second prince, how could she have caused disaster? If Concubine Jiang hadn't stopped Wude that day, how could she have exposed this child to everyone's sight? inside.

Is it to blame the second prince's vicious heart, or is it to blame the side concubine Jiang for committing a crime of her own accord?
No one can tell.

Mrs. Zhang understood, "This idea is very good. I think it may be a long time since I came to the mansion to hold a wedding. I will find a good day for my concubine and deliver the wedding invitations to the officials' wives. I just don't know if His Highness wants to do something big." , or just invite some caring and close ones."

"Of course it needs to be done in a big way, and all officials, big and small, are invited. It's good to be lively!"

The second prince said, his eyes were thoughtful, as if he was absent-minded.

Mrs. Zhang didn't miss his expression, and she was a little more cautious in her heart. I'm afraid something will happen to this banquet.

It's not just who is so unlucky, Mrs. Zhang thought.

"Okay, I understand, tomorrow I will invite someone to look at the almanac and choose an auspicious day."

"Then it's hard work for my concubine." The second prince finally showed a smile.

Soon, the day of the banquet at the second prince's mansion arrived, and the mansion was full of joy.

Neither Pei Mo nor Murong Qing came, and there were almost no generals who appeared in the Prince's Mansion.

Of course, they are not the protagonists of this banquet.

Concubine Jiang was very happy today, she did not expect that a concubine of hers would actually sit next to the second prince, this should be the position of Concubine Zhang.

On the other hand, the seats at Zhang's banquet were actually lower than that of Concubine Jiang.

This strange seating order made the officials' wives present puzzled.

Halfway through the banquet, Concubine Jiang was accepting flattery from other wives.

"Hey, the side concubine is really magnificent. The concubine heard that the second prince loves the empress very much. The ginseng and bird's nest were given to the empress like running water. Even the second prince and the main concubine did not have such a blessing back then!"

Said a woman whose name could not be named.

"Yes, yes, it's more than that. I heard that His Royal Highness the Second Prince even asked the emperor for a tribute from a foreign country to comfort the gods, just to let you have a good night's sleep. This kind of honor, you are still alone. One copy!"

"The concubine has also heard about it. It is said that the second prince's mansion is ready to deliver a woman right now. The concubine dared to ask the empress, whether it is true or not?"

a gossiping woman ventured to ask.

Concubine Jiang's heart was about to fly to the sky when she heard their flattery. In the past, when she was the most honorable, those people just called her Concubine Side.

But now, everyone calls her empress!

Concubine Jiang raised her head, as if she had really become the empress of the palace. She covered her mouth and smiled arrogantly, "It's not so exaggerated. It's just that His Highness loves this concubine, but she is pregnant in October, and the child is still too early to be born. Concubine I tried to persuade His Highness, but His Highness refused to listen, and insisted on finding three experienced wives for my concubine."

Get cheap and sell well.

As soon as the words fell, the wives surrounding Concubine Jiang exclaimed, "Oh my god, three wives were invited!"

"When the empress gave birth to the prince, there were only five midwives!"

Then there was another noise, like a drop of water falling into a frying pan.

The second prince and the male guests had a very happy chat. There was a table of people around the side concubine Jiang, while there were only a few people on the side of the concubine Zhang. The lady who didn't know the situation thought that the second prince and concubine were pregnant. .

The banquet was getting to the point, and everyone sat in their seats to taste the fine wine. At this time, the second prince gave the steward beside him a look.

The steward knew what was going on, and quietly retreated behind the scenes.

Soon, a woman came forward with a bowl of ginseng soup, "My concubine, this is the astragalus chicken soup specially ordered by my empress, dedicated to my concubine, and I hope my concubine will appreciate it and taste it."

Mrs. Zhang nodded, even though it was not her own idea at all, it was arranged by the second prince long ago, and she was only informed of it the night before.

The side concubine's face was ugly, and the mother-in-law sent by the second prince to serve her said that if she eats too much during pregnancy, she will become bloated, and it will be difficult to recover after giving birth, so it will be difficult to please the second prince.

Therefore, Concubine Jiang is on a deliberate diet, and only eats a little bit at a meal, as long as she is not hungry.

She recalled the rumors with a complicated expression. It is said that the concubine Zhang's first child became fat because of overeating, so that the flesh on her stomach has not disappeared until now.

Concubine Jiang and Concubine Zhang were at odds with each other. At this time, she began to think in a dark place. She was surprised to realize that Mrs. Zhang was not jealous of her slender figure, and wanted to make herself like her by overeating. Bar!
Combined with the food and drink in the yard, many of them were sent by the concubine Zhang, Concubine Jiang became more and more sure of her thoughts.
