After Mrs. Hou sent her out, Mrs. Su sighed softly, and said to Jiaoyue next to her, "Second wife is really suffering. The root of the disease fell when she was pregnant with Yu'er, and now she finally gave birth to a baby." Brother, confinement suffers this kind of punishment again!"

Jiaoyue, who had just given birth to a daughter for Han Jianyuan, shook her head and sighed: "Ma'am, what I said is true, but there is nothing I can do about it. It's all caused by the sixth master in the mansion over there. Now that people are locked in the imperial prison, it's okay I don't know how His Majesty will deal with it. Sigh! After this year, I am really anxious."

Su shook her head and said: "It's fine for you to talk about it here, but don't say it in front of Lord Hou. He has been worrying about this matter these days, so don't add fuel to the fire."

"Yes, the servant has memorized Madam's instruction." Jiaoyue Fushen replied.

Su Shi ordered again: "Because there is nothing important right now, hurry up and see our ceremony for entering the palace during the Lantern Festival. The empress can't be sloppy, how many eyes are staring at us."

"Yes, the servant will go to do some things right now, and I will show the lady after making arrangements and making a list." Jiaoyue replied.

Su nodded and said: "I don't worry about you doing things. You just take the key to the warehouse and pick it out. I got up early this morning and I'm not energetic right now. I want to close my eyes and take a rest. "

"Yes. The slave has gone." Jiaoyue agreed, bowed and retreated.

Shangyuan Festival, inside Fengzhang Hall.The palace banquet specially arranged by the emperor for the two princes was placed here.It was still early at this time, and the emperor had not returned from Zichen Palace because of urgent government affairs.There are already seven or eight first-rank and second-rank wives sitting in Fengzhang Palace, among them, Mrs. Zhongyihou Mrs. Su is sitting on the VIP couch on the left hand side of the empress empress.

"A pair of emerald jade suanni incense burners, a pair of red gold inlaid turquoise lion paperweights, two pairs of red gold inlaid ruby ​​​​collars..."

The shrill voice echoed in the main hall of Fengzhang Hall. After reading for a long time, Sun Defu finally finished reading the long gift list, then folded it up and put it on the tray next to him, and bowed again: "Go back to the empress, the above will be done." It is a gift list presented by Mrs. Zhongyihou."

"Sister-in-law has a heart!" Han Qian smiled and nodded towards Mrs. Su, the wife of Zhongyihou, "I am really sorry to have cost so much to call sister-in-law."

Mrs. Su hurriedly bowed her body and smiled, "Your Majesty would not dare to be a concubine when she said this. Aren't all the concubine's things a gift from your majesty, the empress's grace? Now that your majesty and the empress have twins, this is a great joy The courtiers and concubines are also happy to be filial to their families!"

Han Qian smiled and remained silent.Princess Cheng, who was sitting opposite the Su family, said with a smile: "Mrs. Zhongyi Hou is right. Your Majesty and the empress are very happy, and this is also the great joy of my Dayun Jiangshan community. No matter how many congratulatory gifts we have prepared, it is difficult to express the joy in our hearts." !"

The Su family bowed to Princess Cheng: "What the princess said is true."

Princess Cheng laughed again and said: "It's just that I heard that the second wife of Zhongyihou's mansion is also happy with a son. Yesterday my daughter-in-law came to visit with a gift in person, why did she say she wasn't in the mansion?"

"It's true that I'm not in the mansion." Su said with a smile, "There are a lot of things at home during the Chinese New Year. The second sibling's body has been weak and tight, and this pregnancy is also difficult. The imperial doctor said that it is better to rest. So, I moved her I went to raise my confinement child in the Zhuangzi where the eldest princess cultivated before her death. I will come back when the full moon is out, and I will have to invite all the concubines and wives to come to my house."

"That's naturally a pleasure!" Princess Cheng laughed.

Su also nodded with a smile.

The eunuch outside the door replied loudly again: "Mrs. Ninghou Mrs. Han is here!"

Han Qian hurriedly smiled and said, "Come in, please!"

Mrs. Ninghou's wife, Han Rui, came dressed up. After entering the palace, she knelt down and saluted the queen. Wei Xiyue, who was following her, handed a piece of red paper to Sun Defu who was next to her.

Sun Defu unfolded the gift list and read aloud again. After reading, Han Qian hurriedly ordered Xiangcheng: "Please take a seat, big sister, and serve tea."

Han Rui is the younger sister of the Duke of Zhen, and now she is Mrs. Ninghou of the first rank. In order of ranking, she should sit next to Mrs. Duke of Zhen.A seat has been set up next to Mrs. Zhen Guogong, and Han Rui will take her seat after kneeling down to thank her.

"Xiyue, come here." Han Qian waved to Wei Xiyue.

Wei Xiyue responded with a smile, and Fu Liaofu stepped forward and knelt down beside Han Qian.Han Qian touched her cheek with a smile, and sighed, "After a year, I really feel much more rejuvenated."

"Your Majesty made fun of him." Wei Xiyue laughed softly, "Why don't you see Princess Tianxin?"

"She's arguing with Xiao Shitou in the back." Han Qian smiled and shook his head, "If you're looking for her, go to the garden behind."

"Then I'll go." Wei Xiyue stood up with a smile, and quietly went to pull Shao Yanran who had already been seated with her mother, and the two ran to the back to find Tianxin to play.

Yao Pingting, wife of Prince Cheng, smiled at Han Rui and said, "Xiyue has reached the age of marriage, right? She is still as happy as a child, which is really enviable."

"It's because I spoiled her all the time. I don't have any rules. It's the same in front of the empress!" Han Rui shook her head helplessly.

"Girl's house, the more than ten years in her mother's house is the most comfortable. When you get married and start a family, you can't live like this." Han Qian smiled and picked up the tea, and said with a smile: "Come on , Ladies and gentlemen, try my tea first."

Everyone picked up the gold-painted and colored peony covered bowls in front of them together, smelled the fragrance, tasted the tea, and praised the empress empress for the excellent tea.

Wei Xiyue took Shao Yanran and the two out of the back door of Fengzhang Palace and went directly to the glass greenhouse.Tianxin, Xiaoshitou, Pingguoer, and the nanny of the two princes were all basking in the sun in the greenhouse with the two little ones in their arms, and there were also a few little maids serving in it.When everyone saw these two coming, they all stood up with a smile. Apple gave up his seat and said with a smile, "Master Wei and Miss Shao didn't have tea in the front hall? Instead, they ran to the back?"

Wei Xiyue laughed and said: "It's boring to hear those concubines and wives talking in bureaucratic ways, why don't you come and play with Tianxin."

Shao Yanran bent down and picked Tianxin up from the ground and hugged her in her arms, and said with a smile: "Yes! Little Tianxin, I haven't seen my sister for so long, do you miss me? Oh, I haven't hugged you for a few days, you It’s sinking so much! Didn’t you eat less good food during the Chinese New Year?”

"Sister, I'll eat it for you." Tian Xin put the half-eaten mung bean cake in her hand to Shao Yanran's mouth.

Shao Yanran didn't dislike it either, she opened her mouth to bite the mung bean cake into her mouth, nodded and said, "Mmm, it's sweet but not greasy, it's delicious!"

"Oh, there's more here." Pingguo'er hurriedly called Tianxin, "How many times have I told the princess, don't give half-eaten food to other people's mouths, the princess just can't remember."
