Chapter 240 A Big Play
This year, because of the new funeral of the prince, there was no grand banquet for the officials in the palace, and the empress and empress dowager also spared their wives to enter the palace to pay their respects. He handed over the sign, and wanted to enter the palace to greet the queen mother and queen, and take a look at her daughter by the way.
Unlike those concubines with prominent backgrounds, those concubines with low status in the harem rarely see their relatives on weekdays, that is, only during the New Year and holidays, family members can come to the palace to see them.
Therefore, although this year, the Empress Dowager and the Empress did not host a banquet for their wives as in previous years, they still allowed the family members of the concubines to enter the palace in order to avoid appearing too unkind to the royal family.
After the family members of the concubines entered the palace, according to the usual practice, they had to greet the queen mother and queen first.Empress Chen didn't come out behind closed doors, so she didn't have to pay her respects, so after everyone entered the palace, they all went to Shou'an Palace.It just so happened that on this day, Xiao Mingrui also brought a pair of children into the palace, and the Shou'an Palace was very lively.The empress dowager was in a good mood. Although there was no banquet, tea and snacks were served to entertain the concubine's family. The entire hall of the Shou'an Palace was full, and there was a bit of a Chinese New Year atmosphere.
The prime minister's wife and Taiwei's wife also handed the sign to enter the palace on this day.Chen Chengxiang's wife came to the palace to see the empress. She originally planned to sit with the empress dowager and leave, but she did not expect that when she was about to say goodbye to the empress dowager, the eunuch outside suddenly announced that it was the prince who came to the empress dowager. Please be safe.
As soon as she heard that the prince had arrived, Mrs. Chen Chengxiang, who was about to get up, sat back immediately. The other concubines who were also planning to leave also changed their minds. Everyone looked out of the hall together, waiting for Xiao Jingheng to enter.
When Xiao Jingheng was in the Huaiyang Prince's Mansion, he lived in seclusion. After he became the prince, the emperor forbade him to leave the palace casually. Therefore, most of the ladies present have never seen him, including Mrs. The prince was a little curious.
Soon, Xiao Jingheng followed the eunuch leading the way into the hall.Xiao Jingheng, who is already 17 years old, is already very tall. Due to years of martial arts training, his figure is not as thin and thin as ordinary princes from aristocratic families.His shoulders are broad and straight, his figure is loose, his figure is slender, his steps are light, and his gestures are a bit sharp and sassy.
But what is more eye-catching is his appearance.The eyebrows are like ink painting, the temples are cut like a knife, and the jade-like face seems to be shining brightly. A pair of Ruifeng eyes hide the edge, coupled with a straight nose bridge and cherry pink lips, the whole face is perfect without a single flaw.Most of the ladies present were from noble and wealthy families, and all of them were well-informed, but no one had ever seen a man who was more outstanding than Xiao Jingheng.
Everyone couldn't help staring at Xiao Jingheng's face for a while, and they all lamented that such a person like a banished fairy really existed in the world.
"Heng'er came early today." The Empress Dowager was naturally very happy when she saw her precious grandson: "Just in time, your aunt's family just arrived. Come and sit down, it's very cold outside, come here to warm up. Hurry up point……"
The empress dowager winked at the Yang sisters beside her: "Serve tea for the prince."
Some of the sisters of the Yang family immediately stood up and served Xiao Jingheng tea with their own hands.
Xiao Jingheng acted as if he hadn't seen the sisters of the Yang family, he walked around them lightly, stood in front of the empress dowager, and said with a smile: "The grandson just heard that the aunt's family has entered the palace, so it was earlier come over."
"This child," the Empress Dowager said cheerfully, "Didn't I just meet you on New Year's Eve. Your aunt often goes to the palace, so why should you hurry over here? In a few days, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, their family will also celebrate the festival in the palace." .”
"Grandson has something to ask my cousin today." Xiao Jingheng replied with a smile: "If you have something to ask, if you don't come earlier, how can you show sincerity? What if the cousin is picky and refuses to help?"
"You need to make a special trip for such a big event." The Empress Dowager looked a little curious: "You can see Jun'er every day, what a big deal, Jun'er can't do it, you have to ask Yaoer on the head."
"Of course it's something that only cousins can do." Xiao Jingheng smiled softly, and very deliberately in front of the ladies, took out a small brocade bag from his chest, opened it on the spot, and deliberately raised his hand slightly, so that The empress dowager and everyone present saw clearly what was in his hand.
In Xiao Jingheng's hand was a wooden hairpin, which looked like sandalwood, carved with thin cloud patterns, and polished very finely, but the handwork was not very good.
He Lingyao laughed when she saw this wooden hairpin, she had already guessed what Xiao Jingheng wanted to do.
"It looks similar to the one Jing'er is wearing now." He Lingyao asked, "You made it again?"
"Yes." Xiao Jingheng nodded with a smile: "Please trouble my cousin to run to my father-in-law's house for me after she leaves the palace, and give this hairpin and this letter to my wife."
He Lingyao took the hairpin over, looked at it carefully, and said with a smile: "It seems to be more delicate than the one Jing'er is wearing now."
"Naturally, it should be more refined," Xiao Jingheng said with a smile, "otherwise, how good would it be to be rejected by the lady?"
"You did it yourself, how could Jing'er dislike it." He Lingyao replied with a smile.
"Ah!" The playwright Xiao Jingheng lamented: "She has lived in her mother's house for several months, and left me alone in the palace. She is worried about her, and I don't know if she misses me. Cousin saw me She, please remember to urge her to write to me more diligently, I'm afraid she will forget me after being separated for so long."
"How could it be!" He Lingyao was so teased by the drama, Xiao Mingrui, Captain Consort and He Lingjun also laughed together.But the empress dowager and the sisters of the Yang family were not so happy.
The sisters of the Yang family all looked embarrassed, while the empress dowager held up the teacup to hide her disappointed expression.
"Leave it to me." He Lingyao stuffed the wooden hairpin and the letter back into the brocade bag, and promised Xiao Jingheng with a smile: "I will go to Wudinghou's mansion tomorrow morning, and I will personally watch your wife and write you a reply. I promise When my elder brother comes to the palace early in the morning, he will bring Jing'er's reply letter to you, don't you feel relieved? But..."
He Lingyao shook the brocade bag at Xiao Jingheng, and teased again: "Your Chonghua Palace is so magnificent, with so many precious objects, but you only brought a wooden hairpin to Jing'er, aren't you afraid that your family Jing'er will dislike it?"
"Father gave us Chonghua Palace to live in, and it will be the home of Jing'er and me from now on," Xiao Jingheng said with a smile: "every plant, every tree, every needle and thread in the house originally belonged to her, the mistress, so how could it be regarded as a gift?" ? If I really found something from the Chonghua Palace and brought it to her, she would hate it!"
---Here is the dividing line of the drama prince ---
Also don't doubt Xiao Hengheng's professional ethics as a dramatist, this one was trained with Xiao Jingjing, and her level may be higher than that of her own daughter-in-law.
Catching such a good opportunity for a group of noble ladies to enter the palace, can this dramatist not be in a hurry to add drama to himself?
