A happy event in a fertile field: the black-bellied husband is as beautiful as a flower

Chapter 529 A little accident

Meng Yan said: "Oh, is it because I took a flower petal bath today? If Mr. Xianggong likes it, he can also take one later, and I can even apply some fragrance powder on you."

Yin Heng smiled softly, and then slowly let her go.

The two of them went out before nightfall, and when they arrived at the palace, it was just when the palace lights were on.

There are many ministers and female relatives who came today, and when they entered the palace, they met acquaintances, and they would go together in small groups, chatting and laughing while walking.

In front of the hall, the male officials and female relatives entered separately.

The female relatives who bring their maids have to wait outside the hall.And the ministers were not allowed to bring male servants into the palace on such a grand occasion with many people, and even if they did, they would stop at the gate of the palace.

So Chongxian did not follow into the palace gate, Chongyi followed Meng Yan into the palace, and when she entered the palace, she stayed outside.

Along the way, Meng Yan also met many female relatives who came to greet her, and she, like Yin Heng, handled it with ease.

The front hall is brightly lit, and the female relatives are all dressed up and smiling like flowers today.

They walked into the hall with lotus steps in a group, and they couldn't help but quietly straighten their temples and dress, fearing that there might be something wrong with their appearance.

Meng Yan didn't go to the front nor to the last, and she was accompanied by an assigned court lady.

How could she think that when she stepped into the palace gate, the corner of her skirt was accidentally stepped on by the maid beside her, and she was pulled back heavily.

If other ladies and wives were caught off guard and kept unstable, they would definitely fall straight into the hall.

The empress dowager and the queen are both present in the hall, and there are many princes and ministers sitting on the lower head. If you fall into it, how can you be decent under the eyes of everyone?
Fortunately, Meng Yan reacted quickly and her figure was flexible. Even if she leaned forward, the pull did not make her fall.

Coupled with the fact that someone at the side reached out to give her a hand in time, she naturally stood firm.

Those who walked in front didn't know what happened, but the female relatives behind could see clearly that Princess Yin Wu almost fell down.

Meng Yan didn't change her face, she looked back at her skirt, and then at the maid.

The palace maid immediately knelt down on the ground, pleading guilty: "Your servant is not careful, please forgive me, Wangfei!"

As soon as she knelt, there was a commotion, which was seen by the empress and queen mother in the hall.

The queen said, "What happened?"

Before Meng Yan could speak, the court lady kowtowed and begged for mercy: "My lord, spare me! My lord, spare my life!"

Everyone was celebrating the Laba Festival happily today, and the begging for mercy was undoubtedly a bit disturbing, so everyone focused their attention on Meng Yan.

Meng Yan casually brushed the corner of her skirt without getting angry, and said, "Forget it, you didn't mean it either."

Although she didn't mention that the palace maid stepped on the corner of her skirt, her actions showed everything.

She didn't make a fool of herself, and she didn't get angry in public. After entering the palace, she sat next to Yin Heng, acting as if everything had never happened, and she couldn't make people laugh at her.

The queen looked at the maid, and said: "I offended Princess Yin Wu, and if the princess doesn't punish you, you can go and kneel outside the palace."

If the court lady was granted amnesty, she answered "yes" in a trembling voice, and then she walked out of the gate of the hall with the corner of her skirt, and went to kneel outside.

The Queen Mother's spirit has improved a lot, and Xie Chuying also appeared today, continuing to serve the Queen Mother.

Although she did not accompany the Empress Dowager in the palace during this period, but recuperated at her own home, she did not slack off and devoted herself to copying several volumes of Buddhist scriptures for the Empress Dowager, and the copies were very neat and beautiful.

The queen mother didn't think of her much at first, but Xie Chuying asked someone to send Buddhist scriptures to the palace for the queen mother during the day, and the queen mother couldn't help pity her ingenuity when she saw her.

So the Empress Dowager ordered her to come to the palace tonight.

After the queen mother sat down in the hall, she saw Xie Chuying enter the hall, so she waved her to come to her side, took her hand and greeted her warmly.

In the eyes of everyone, Xie Chuying is still the daughter of a daughter who is loved by the Queen Mother.

The topic of conversation at the banquet started with Yin Rong's two princes and concubines, because the emperor was not present when the two entered the palace to greet them, so now the two went forward to greet the emperor together.

The emperor was happy, and he and the empress and queen mother rewarded many gifts as usual.

The two met other members of the royal family one by one.

Then the topic turned to the Laba Festival.

Yushanfang also made a variety of Laba porridge with different flavors according to the proportion of ingredients, and presented them one by one for everyone to taste.

In addition to porridge, other delicacies are also indispensable.

Needless to say, the singing and dancing in the hall will bring peace.

The dinner lasted for more than half an hour. The emperor and his ministers had something to talk about. At first they just chatted about wine and gossip, but gradually they tended to talk about political affairs.

The queen was also very insightful, and proposed to take the female family members to visit the imperial garden at night. The emperor readily agreed when he heard this.

Under the desk, Yin Heng held Meng Yan's hand and put it on his lap, he tightened his fingers, then loosened after a while, and said in a low voice: "Be careful yourself, let Chongyi follow you."

Of course Meng Yan understood, not to mention that he couldn't leave right now, there would be more occasions like this in the future, and he couldn't be with her all the time.

Meng Yan looked down at the two people's handshake, smiled, and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, I will pay attention."

Then she got up and left the hall with other female relatives.

In the imperial garden, the maids in elegant palace dresses were shuttling back and forth, holding a fire in their hands to light the lamps among the treetops.

For a while, the lights are dim, which is not interesting.

After Meng Yan came out of the palace, she didn't see the court lady kneeling outside the palace, so she asked Chongyi about it.

Chongyi has been waiting in the outer hall, not knowing what happened specifically, and replied: "A court lady was sent out to kneel before, but the Imperial Garden needs manpower to prepare, so she was asked to do things again."

Chongyi asked again: "What happened? Did she want to harm the princess?"

Meng Yan said, "It's nothing."

In public, how could a little court lady treat her badly, it was nothing more than creating some accidents and making her look ugly.

But the palace maid herself must not be so courageous.

When we arrived at the Imperial Garden, we first heard the Empress Dowager chatting and laughing with the wives, the voice sounded generous and peaceful.

Seeing Meng Yan, the queen mother laughed and said: "It seems that every time Princess Yin Wu appears, there are frequent situations. Fortunately, every time there is no danger. If not, due to the fault of a maid tonight, you If you really pay homage to the hall, the Ai family will be frightened by your great gift."

Meng Yan replied: "The queen mother is right. Last time the group of hounds charged and frightened the queen mother, is the queen mother better?"

When the hound was mentioned, the queen mother felt a haze in her heart.

The Empress Dowager smiled and said: "Thanks to you, Aijia is much better now."

Meng Yan said sincerely: "The queen mother is better, so the minister's wife is relieved. It is said that the last incident was caused by the minister's wife, and the minister's wife has not had the opportunity to express her apology to the queen mother, and she feels very guilty. "
