Chapter 1201 Xiao Xiang
Listening to their emotions, Bai Ningxiang turned her head to look at Lou Chenlu and Lu Wei, and couldn't help chuckling, "Compared to the girls' ignorant yearning for the cardamom years, we are young and Zheng Mao."

"The empress is right, the youthful years are long gone... What is left to us is either gentle and elegant, or sharp and wise, or even graceful and charming. These things cannot be accumulated without time."

Holding a round fan in her hand, Lu Wei curled up her bright red lips, bragging without being polite.

"Empress, listen, my sister-in-law is really shameless, she is the only one who is bold and dares to say anything, fortunately there are no outsiders here." Lou Chenlu looked at Lu Wei, covered the corners of her mouth with a round fan, giggling non-stop .

"It's said that a tiger father has no dog daughter, but our sister is a hero, so don't mess with her."

Bai Ningxiang glanced at Lu Wei appreciatively. This person's personality has always been like this. Even after marrying, he still lives recklessly. There is a boldness of a general's family in his bones. It is also fun to talk to such a person.

Watching the girls surging in the imperial garden, Bai Ningxiang pointed to the sea of ​​flowers in front with her round fan,

"Hibiscus is not as good as a beauty's make-up. The wind from the water palace brings the fragrance of pearls and emerald greens. They are the most beautiful flowers in the imperial garden today."

When Bai Ningxiang led the wives to appear, the noble ladies came to greet them one after another, and then took their seats in a dignified manner.

The weather was fine today, Bai Ningxiang directly arranged the banquet in the imperial garden.

Even all kinds of dishes, melon and fruit refreshments are all selected from seasonal vegetables and fruits, as well as various flowers. The combination of various flowers is not only beautiful, but also has its own characteristics in taste, sweet, salty, fragrant and glutinous.

Before the banquet, Supervisor Han came and said that the emperor had something to do, so he would not come.

Bai Ningxiang was not surprised by this, Han Jing wasn't very interested in this kind of flower banquet, and she expected it if he didn't come, since he didn't intend to let people enter the palace, naturally he wouldn't come here to make trouble.

However, when the ladies in the venue heard the news that the emperor would not come, their expressions were different. Originally, they wanted to take advantage of the flower feast to try again, but who knew that the emperor did not show up at all.

Although the wives present are regretful, they dare not show it, but the noble ladies are different, the disappointment in their eyes is particularly obvious.

Seeing everyone's expressions, Bai Ningxiang held the wine glass and took a sip of peach blossom drunk, mellow.

At four o'clock, the flower banquet ended, and before his wife left the palace, Bai Ningxiang rewarded each of them with a bolt of spring satin as a token of gratitude.

Bai Ningxiang returned to the Changchun Palace, changed into a light palace attire, and just leaned on the arhat bed when she heard the palace servant report.

"Ma'am, Mrs. Feng, please see me?"

The Feng family?
Bai Ningxiang frowned, what is the old lady looking for at this time?
Seeing the old lady appearing in front of her wearing a dowager's attire and walking on crutches, Bai Ningxiang still doesn't understand, what's suspicious about them sitting down and talking alone?
"Yun Ni, show me a seat for the old lady." Bai Ningxiang sat in the side hall, looking at the expression of the old lady, "Does the old lady have something to say to me?"

"My wife pays her respects to the empress, and please forgive me for disturbing her without authorization." The old lady blessed her lower body slightly, and was supported by the maid to sit down.

Bai Ningxiang has already done what needs to be done, so she will naturally not embarrass an old lady again.

After the palace servants served tea, Bai Ningxiang greeted her a few more times, just asking her to take care of her health and wait for her children and grandchildren to return in triumph.

"Thank you for your concern, my wife. Those sons of the minister's wife are not up to date and cannot share the worries of the emperor. They have to trouble the emperor to plan for the Han family. The courtier's wife and his family are very grateful."

Old Madam Feng looked at Bai Ningxiang kindly, and greeted him politely.

Let's talk about it, but those shrewd eyes glanced at it from time to time, and the temptation was obvious.

Regarding this, Bai Ningxiang pretended not to notice, she wanted to chat, so she chatted with her, just to waste some time.

After a quarter of an hour, the old lady finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"Your Majesty, forgive me, Rong Chenfu asked, I heard that the Emperor and Your Majesty are selecting teachers for the prince?"

Hearing the old lady's tone, Bai Ningxiang was taken aback for a moment, and her expression suddenly dawned on her. Now she finally knew the reason for the old lady's visit.

At the same time, it was very funny in my heart, why did the old lady think that they would give up this opportunity to the Feng family?
The prince's teacher is related to the imperial court's plans, and he must not be sloppy at all.

Now she is in a different position from the emperor, the ups and downs of a family is really nothing, the prosperity and stability of the entire court is what they should consider;
Looking at the old lady's eager gaze, Bai Ningxiang picked up the tea and took a sip.
To be honest, she now doubts whether the position of Jijiu in Guozijian is suitable for the Feng family.

If he is so eager for quick success and instant benefit, he is in charge of the administration of Confucianism and teaching, and manages the world's schools. Will it affect the style of Chinese studies?
"What the old lady said is indeed true. Both the palace and the emperor are worrying about the selection of teachers. The three divisions in the East Palace now only have a vacancy for the crown prince. Virtue is highly respected, but if there are selfish motives, this palace and the emperor are ashamed of the courtiers and the people of South Korea."

Old Madam Feng's face was a little stiff when she heard Bai Ningxiang's tone, what did she mean?
What is selfishness?Her family's master works in the Imperial Academy for Jijiu. He is already the mentor of students all over the country, and he is also the most qualified person to be the prince and grand teacher.

Besides, does this position have real power? It's just a good reputation. Why not give it to her master?

In terms of learning, his master is no worse than anyone else.

In terms of virtue and prestige, her master is the mentor of students all over the world.

Even in terms of personal relationships, their Feng family is also relatives of the emperor, the emperor's maternal ancestral family, and the closest people to the crown prince.

"The empress is very worried. The court lady also heard a few words at home today. It is about His Royal Highness. The old man is very worried. He said that he must find good teachers and friends for His Royal Highness so that he can cultivate a generation of outstanding emperors for the court."

"Feng Jijiu has a heart, and I am very grateful." Bai Ningxiang nodded, then turned her head and told Yun Ni, "Go to the cellar and bring a jar of five-year-old peach blossom wine to Feng's residence to show my heart."

"Yes, empress." Yun Ni suppressed a smile, blessed her body, greeted the two palace servants and went out.

Mrs. Feng watched the queen's operation, her eyelids trembled, she got up to thank the gift,

"Thank you Empress for giving me the wine. The old man really likes the peach blossom drunk. He said it has a mellow taste and a faint peach blossom fragrance."

"Feng Jijiu has taste. Peach Blossom Drunk is a fine wine from Bengong's Distillery. The quality is extremely high. The longer it is stored in the cellar, the more mellow the taste will be. I heard from the people below that the supply of Peach Blossom Drunk is in short supply, and the stock in Bengong's hands is also limited."

Speaking of peach blossom drunkenness, Bai Ningxiang directly changed the topic. If the old lady is sensible, she will act as if nothing happened. If the old lady is still stubborn... The Imperial College is indeed not suitable for the Feng family.
