Chapter 329

As soon as Xia Sichan left Weiyang Palace, she met the emperor who came to pick up the queen to Changle Hall and Wei Ziqian who came to pick her up.

"My wife has seen the emperor." Xia Sichan was about to salute, Chen Xiaoxu helped her up and said, "Madame Wei doesn't need a grand salute."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xia Sichan simply wished the emperor a blessing.

"Let's go, Chan'er will follow her husband to the Hall of Changle." Wei Ziqian stretched out his hand to hold on to Xia Sichan's little hand through his wide sleeve, and led her towards the Hall of Changle.

When it was nearly noon, the glazed mandarin duck tiles, the vermilion lacquer tiles, and the pavilion with double eaves were all covered with a layer of golden halo with bright eyes.

Along the way, I met many officials and family members. They greeted Wei Ziqian and his wife and said hello to each other.The eyes involuntarily glanced at the hands of two people holding each other.

While greeting them, Xia Sichan wanted to take out her little hand, but unexpectedly, this person tightened her hand even more.

Xia Sichan didn't struggle when she thought about it, forget it, now she has a thick skin, and she is not afraid of what outsiders will say.

Besides, how many outsiders don't know that Wei Ziqian is a model of loving his wife.

In the palace, there were many guests in the Changle Hall, which specially entertained officials, full of guests, talking cheerfully and enjoying themselves.

Today's officials are almost all courtiers who are loyal to the emperor, and Wei Ziqian, as his confidant and high position, naturally sits closest to the emperor.

When the emperors and empresses, each wearing a bright yellow dragon and phoenix robe, walked to the throne hand in hand, the crowd shouted: "Long live the emperor!" "Long live the empress!"

The emperor nodded his head and said: "Your highnesses are exempt from courtesy."

The queen followed closely behind and said, "All gentlemen, please sit down."

The banquet officially started.

At the banquet, Wei Ziqian saw that the people around him had only touched the warm soup and some pastries after sitting down for so long, so he leaned over and whispered in her ear, "But the dishes here don't suit your appetite?"

Xia Sichan shook her head and explained: "It's okay."

She raised her eyes and glanced at the delicacies on the table, the delicacies on the jade plate.

The banquets in the palace are made by the royal chef in the palace, and the dishes on the table are all delicious.

It's just that some dishes are made from the imperial dining room and need to be placed on plates one by one, and then the maids will bring them over. Although each dish is covered with a cover, it will be completely cold when it is sent all the way to the Changle Palace.

If there is little oil and water in the dish, it’s okay, and you don’t feel anything after eating two bites. If it’s those meat dishes with a lot of oil and water, you will feel uncomfortable if you eat them when they are cold.

I can only eat a few pieces of pastries, but the pastries in the palace are really good.

Especially the radish cake and tuckahoe cake that I ate at the Queen's last time were delicious even though they were cold.

Wei Ziqian saw that there was no heat on the table in front of him, how could he not know the reason?

It's just that he is a man, he doesn't care about his appetite, and he doesn't mind eating.

I have eaten brown rice and half-cooked meat during the march and war, and I don't care about cold dishes at all.

At this time, I also blame myself in my heart, I didn't expect this.The little wife should be asked to eat some food at home before going to the banquet.

In other words, apart from glancing at the empress and empress sitting on the high seat from time to time, all the people at the banquet almost focused their attention on the first and second lords.

Who told them to be so good-looking and so affectionate that others envy them?
Several female relatives who were close to their table stopped the silver in their hands at the same time, seeing that Wei Ziqian's words and deeds were full of love for her, which made her bow her head and smile shyly from time to time. For a while, the female relatives were envious.

During the banquet, toasts were staggered, and where there are men, there is wine. During the period, many people persuaded them to drink, but Wei Ziqian waved his hands and refused.

Xia Sichan understood that this person stopped drinking because Xiao Shenrong lost his temper after drinking too much full moon wine.

Several adults immediately remembered what Wei Ziqian said at the palace banquet that day: "I have a hidden disease, so I can't drink alcohol", and they couldn't help but regret: "Master Shoufu can drink so well, it's a pity that he can no longer drink alcohol because of a hidden disease... "

"Is there a hidden disease?" Xia Sichan whispered.

Wei Ziqian met her disbelieving gaze, clasped her hand with his ten fingers, and smiled suddenly: "It's not a pity."

It's not a pity for myself not to lose my composure.

And it's as sweet as it is.

Xia Sichan suddenly felt a sore nose, such a person who loves to drink would rather give up his long-standing hobby, this person is too strict with himself.

In fact, he doesn't love wine as much as she imagined, but he loves her more than she imagined.

The tense of not wanting to drink by himself hurt the relationship between husband and wife, and hurt the heart of the little wife.

Just when the emperor raised his glass: "I respect you all, dear ones." Then Wei Ziqian got up and held up the Ru kiln celadon sunflower wine cup, facing the direction of the emperor, and said in unison with everyone: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

After the banquet was over, someone from the palace came to remind the empress that it was time for the next ceremony.

Originally, this "hair shaving ceremony" should be arranged at the child's full moon, but because the full moon wine was not held, it was postponed to this time.

Then everyone returned to Weiyang Palace.

A crowd gathered around to watch the ceremony, and the little prince was hugged in the center by Mrs. Quan Fu who was stepping on three things wrapped in red cloth: "green onion, yun, and axe". Perhaps he knew that the person who hugged him was not his mother. The little prince suddenly burst into tears, and Mrs. Quanfu couldn't stop coaxing him, and she froze in place for a moment, at a loss for what to do.

The child cried heart-rendingly, Cui Xin felt distressed, and at Chen Ling's gesture, he stepped forward and hugged the child.

The little prince stopped crying as soon as he got into her arms. He originally wanted to send it back to Mrs. Quanfu after being coaxed, but the little prince didn't cooperate at all, and he cried endlessly when he left her body.

The scene was at a stalemate for a while, and finally Chen Xiao said, "Forget it, the queen just hugs me."

Some people whispered that this is unreasonable, the little prince needs a blessed person to hug him and salute.

The emperor frowned immediately, his eyes darkened, and he asked: "How can the mother of a country be blessed?"

Everyone knows that the emperor is gentle, as long as he doesn't touch his bottom line and Ni Lin, he seldom makes a cold face in public, and the person who spoke first was suddenly frightened into silence.

The emperor was not in danger, and all the people present were silent for a while.

The little prince returned to his mother's arms, the crying stopped, and he stared at her tearfully with his mouth flattened. Cui Xin patted his head in distress.

The little prince's hair is denser and much longer than the short and sparse ones during the full moon.

The ceremony continued. The queen held the little prince herself. The skilled barber shaved his hair neatly with a knife. Mrs. Quan Fu smiled and said some auspicious words. The whole process went smoothly without any mistakes.

The shaved fetal hair is all picked up by maids and put into small gold and silver boxes, and then put into altars or temples to worship and pray for them.

Xia Sichan watched with relish, and on the way back, she praised the little prince, saying that he was good-looking.

The emperors and empresses are not bad, and the children have taken advantage of them to grow up. How can there be ugly ones?
Wei Ziqian didn't take it seriously when he heard this, raised his eyebrows and said, "How can our smile look so good!"

Xia Sichan gave him a sharp look, she was really a protector.

 Xia Sichan: The little prince looks really good-looking.

  Wei Ziqian: How can we look good when we smile?
