The ministers begged me to ascend the throne
Chapter 4 Dinner
Chapter 4 Dinner
This rainstorm lasted from noon to evening, fulfilling Zhao Yao's wish not to go to Wende Hall to study.
In the evening, the downpour stopped, and tonight's dinner was held as usual.
Tonight's dinner is a family banquet, and most concubines and princes and princesses will attend.
There was still some time before the dinner, Liang Zhaoyi and the others were not in a hurry to go to Qionglin Court.Every time there is an important banquet, or to greet Empress Xie, Liang Zhaoyi and Yu Meiren always go in the middle, neither sooner nor later.
Zhao Yao rolled around on the couch with Laifu and Laicai in his arms, "Concubine Mother, can I really have to go?" Although there will be a good show at the dinner party tonight, he prefers to stay in Kunde Palace and Come and play with them.
"No." Liang Zhaoyi sat on the edge of the couch, stretched out her hand and pinched her son's chubby face, "You have to get up."
Zhao Yao buried his face in Cai's belly and pretended to be dead.
Laicai licked Zhao Yao's head with a look.
Liang Zhaoyi reached out and grabbed Zhao Yao's small ears, and Zhao Yao cried out in pain.
"Can't you get up?"
"Get up, I'll be up right away."
Only then did Liang Zhaoyi let go of her son's ears.
Zhao Yao didn't dare to play tricks anymore, and got up reluctantly.
After they packed up, Poppy brought the fifth princess over.
Pan Cairen's rank is too low to be qualified to attend such an important banquet.However, she herself did not want to attend, because she was timid and worried that she would make a mistake at the banquet.
Liang Zhaoyi led Zhao Yao, Yu Meiren led the fifth princess, and they went to Qionglin Garden together.
"I'm afraid the dinner party tonight will not be peaceful." Poppy also didn't want to attend the dinner party tonight, she was most afraid of dealing with such an occasion.
Liang Zhaoyi said softly, "We'll just go to eat, don't worry about other things."
The Kunde Hall is a bit far from Qionglin Garden, and the four of them walked for two minutes before arriving.They arrived neither early nor late, and there were still many people who did not arrive, such as Empress Xie, Concubine Rong, and Concubine De.
Concubine Li arrived a little earlier than Liang Zhaoyi and the others, and Liang Zhaoyi brought Yu Meiren to salute her.
Zhao Yao obediently greeted the fourth prince who was sitting next to Concubine Li: "Fourth brother."
The fifth princess also greeted her.
The fourth prince nodded to Zhao Yao and the others, and said in a flat tone: "Tenth brother, fifth sister."
Zhao Yao sat down beside the fourth prince, and the fifth princess sat down next to him.
The fourth prince sat with his back straight, his expression very indifferent, and he looked very unapproachable.However, Zhao Yao doesn't think so. He thinks that the fourth brother is very good, with a steady temper, hardworking in his studies, and very patient with his younger brothers.
Zhao Yao is not good at reading, he is the most stupid among all the princes.The fourth prince often taught him to read.Sometimes, Zhao Yao deliberately pretended not to understand, and the fourth prince not only didn't dislike it, but also patiently taught him over and over again until he understood.
Among all the emperor brothers, Zhao Yao likes the fourth prince the most.
The fourth prince lowered his head and asked Zhao Yao if he understood what the gentleman said this morning.
When Zhao Yao heard the fourth prince asking him this, the alarm bell rang in his heart, and he had a bad premonition: the fourth prince wouldn't want to teach him here, would he?He didn't want to have to read before dinner.
He hurriedly said: "Fourth brother, I understand." He was afraid that the fourth prince would not believe it, so he emphasized it again, "Fourth brother, I really understand."
The fourth prince looked at Zhao Yao trying his best to put on an "appearance that I really understand", and a very faint smile flashed across his eyes.He said: "Since you understand, then I will test you."
Although the ages of Zhao Yao and the fourth prince are very different, they are a group of brothers studying in the same school.Every class, the gentlemen will teach the older princes first, and then teach the younger princes.Therefore, the fourth prince knew exactly what Zhao Yao learned this morning.
When Zhao Yao heard that the fourth prince was going to test him, his heart skipped a beat.He smiled at the fourth prince in a fawning manner: "Fourth brother, father and the others are coming soon, you can test me tomorrow, and let me go today."
Looking at Zhao Yao's begging for mercy, the fourth prince knew that he did not understand what Mr. Today taught.However, it is indeed not suitable to teach him here.
"Okay, I'll test you tomorrow."
After Zhao Yao heard this, a look of escape appeared on his small face.He smiled obediently at the fourth prince, then quickly changed the subject and said that the dim sum made by the fifth princess was delicious, and asked the fourth prince to try it.
Seeing that Zhao Yao didn't want to talk about studying, the fourth prince felt a little helpless, so he followed his words and talked about the snacks made by the fifth princess.In fact, the fourth prince doesn't like to be a good teacher. Usually, the ninth prince and his younger brothers don't understand, so he wouldn't take the initiative to teach them, but Zhao Yao is different.The fourth prince likes Zhao Yao's clear eyes.
A moment later, Concubine De, Concubine Shu, and Concubine Liang arrived.The third prince, the second princess, the third princess and the fifth prince, the fourth princess and the sixth princess followed behind them.
Concubine Shu is the concubine of the third prince and the second princess.
Concubine De is the concubine of the third princess and the fifth prince.
Concubine Liang is the concubine of the fourth princess and the sixth prince.
All three concubines came from wealthy families.Regardless of the court, there are many people who support the prince and His Royal Highness, but in fact there are also many ministers who support the third and fifth princes.
Concubine Li, Liang Zhaoyi and the others quickly stood up and saluted Concubine De and the others.
Concubine De and the others did not speak to Li Bin and the others, but nodded perfunctorily.
Concubine Li's background is much better than that of Liang Zhaoyi, but in front of the third concubine, her background is not enough.
The three concubines and the others regarded each other as enemies.Of course, their biggest enemy is Concubine Rong.
Why not Queen Xie?
Although Empress Xie was born in a top-notch family - the Xie family, and gave birth to the seventh prince, she is the successor.
Behind Empress Xie is the Xie family, but the Xie family supports the crown prince, not the seventh prince.
The prince is the son of the first queen, and the first queen is also the daughter of the Xie family.
As long as the prince is still there, the seventh prince, the son of Empress Xie, will never have a chance.The most important point is that Empress Xie is not as favored as Concubine Rong.
Concubine Rong is the cousin of Emperor Wu of Zhou. The two grew up together and have a very good relationship.If it wasn't for the marriage with the Xie family back then, Emperor Wu of Zhou's wife would have been Concubine Rong.
Emperor Wu of Zhou doted on Concubine Rong very much, and Concubine Rong favored the Six Palaces for more than 20 years, and she has been standing still.
Even if the three concubines united with Queen Xie, they could not defeat Concubine Rong.
It doesn't matter that Concubine Rong is favored by herself, her eldest son Dai Wang is still very good, and is deeply loved and reused by Emperor Wu of Zhou.
The son of the third concubine wants to fight for that position, the biggest obstacle is not the prince, but the acting king.
"Dai Wang is really powerful, and he won a complete victory." Concubine Liang said suddenly.
Concubine De said in a sour tone: "Concubine Rong Gui is really lucky to have such an excellent son as the acting king." Then, she turned to look at the gentle and beautiful Concubine Shu, "Sister Concubine Shu, when the king was in charge of the third prince Going out to kill the enemy at such a young age, but the third prince is still studying in the Wende Palace, it's really maddening to compare people to others."
The third prince rushed in front of Concubine Shu and said, "Concubine Demu, I don't like to lead soldiers to fight, I only like to read and draw." Ask him for a picture. "The second brother joined the army at the age of 14, and the fifth brother is exactly 12 years old this year. The fifth brother can learn from the second brother and go to the military camp to train. Maybe the fifth brother can make the same contribution as the second brother."
When the fifth prince heard this, he quickly shook his head and said, "I won't go, I don't want to serve as a soldier in the barracks."
Concubine Shu smiled softly at Concubine De: "Sister De Concubine, it seems that your dream is going to be shattered."
Concubine De glared at the Fifth Prince first, then at Concubine Shu: "Your dream is broken."
Seeing that Concubine De and Concubine Shu were about to quarrel, Concubine Liang hurriedly persuaded her: "Sisters, stop arguing. Tonight's dinner is to celebrate the success of the acting king. The emperor and empress are coming soon."
Concubine De and Concubine Shu heard that the emperor was coming soon, they quickly shut up and said nothing more.However, a pair of eyes stared fiercely at each other.
After a while, the voice of saluting Queen Xie and the prince came from not far away.
Empress Xie brought the seventh prince, and the prince brought the princess to the dinner.
Everyone stood up and saluted Queen Xie, and Queen Xie asked everyone to sit down in a gentle tone.Then, Emperor Wu of Zhou appeared with Concubine Rong and the Ninth Prince.
"Get up."
Although Emperor Wu of Zhou came with Concubine Rong, he sat beside Empress Xie.When Concubine Rong saw this scene, hatred flashed across her eyes.
Wait a little longer, she will become a queen in a short time, and then she will be able to sit by the emperor's side.
Concubine Rong respectfully bowed to Empress Xie: "I have seen the queen." In front of Emperor Wu of Zhou, Concubine Rong would behave very well, but if Emperor Wu of Zhou was not around, Concubine Rong would be very perfunctory in this ceremony. .
Empress Xie helped Concubine Rong up herself, "Sister, get up quickly." She held Concubine Rong's hand lightly, and said with a smile, "Sister, you really gave birth to a good son for the Emperor and Da Zhou! If it wasn't for the generation Wang, the rebellion in Liangzhou will not be put down so quickly, nor will it be so smooth!"
