The Qin residence was bustling with activity.
It is said that happy events will not come if they are not well-organized, not to mention that this marriage was urgent. Lord Qin and Madam Qin had not had time to host a banquet for the guests, and they did not think that many guests would come.
But I didn't expect that there would be so many noble officials and court officials coming uninvited today.
Mrs. Qin was busy adding countless tables. When she saw more people coming, she added more tables and asked the servants to invite chefs from several major restaurants.
Qi Yuning, Lu Ze and Lingling sat at the main table.
Qin Feng entertained Lu Ze and said, "I'm sorry to have troubled you today because of all the things going on at home."
Lu Ze said, "We have known each other since childhood, so there is no need to worry so much. It's just that I never thought that your sister would become my aunt one day."
Qin Feng lowered his voice and sighed, "I didn't expect that at this juncture, my sister marrying Prince Shou is really not a good thing."
Lu Ze said: "My uncle, the Prince of Shou, has always been kind. I believe he will treat Qin Mang well and will not let Qin Mang suffer."
Qin Feng sighed again and said, "The situation in the court is very treacherous right now... How can I not be worried?"
Prince Xu and Prince Jin are not ordinary princes. Prince Shou is kind, but a kind person is also a weak person.
Now everyone in the court is saying that Prince Shou will soon become the crown prince, but Qin Feng doesn't think so. Prince Shou is not suitable to be the king.
If his sister only became the princess consort of a leisurely prince, Qin Feng would be extremely relieved. However, if she had to compete for that position in the future, how could Qin Feng not be worried.
Lu Ze said: "Today is a good day, let's have some food and wine."
Qin Feng finished his glass of wine and said, "I still have to entertain other guests. Excuse me."
After Qin Feng left, Qi Yuning looked at the lively Qin family, the bright red wedding character, and said to Lu Ze: "It's really lively today."
The thoughts of the guests who came to the banquet can also be seen.
Lu Ze said, "I'm afraid it will be even more lively in the next few days. I heard that there are many people in the Jin Palace who want to be matchmakers to introduce him to the Jin Princess. In the Xu Palace, the Xu Princess is still bedridden, but there are also many people who want to introduce Xu to a second wife!"
Qi Yuning shook his head slightly and drank the wine cup in front of him.
Holding the imperial edict of succession in her hand, she could only sigh as she looked at these people who were busy pursuing future power with their thoughts clearly written on their faces.
"Uncle! Here!"
When Lingling saw Princess Duan and Zhao Jie coming, she waved for them to come and sit next to her.
Qi Yuning and Lu Ze stood up and saluted Princess Duan: "Aunt."
Princess Duan smiled faintly and said, "No need to be polite, it's quite lively here. Sister Mang used to play with Shan'er. The two are not much different in age. I didn't expect that she would become Shan'er's ninth aunt. It's really hard to say what fate is in this world."
Qi Yuning responded: "The fate in this world is truly amazing."
Lingling gave the cake in the bowl in front of little Zhaojie and said, "Uncle, try this. It's delicious."
Little Zhao Jie took the cake Lingling gave him and smiled at Lingling, "It's delicious."
Qi Yuning looked at little Zhao Jie who was eating cakes beside him and smiled faintly. Such a child of four or five years old was about to ascend to the position of emperor, and was trapped in the palace for his whole life.
No wonder Lingling often goes to the palace to play with her uncle.
Even the little Zhao Jie in the Xinwei year was just a child.
Seeing Qi Yuning looking at him, Zhao Jie also looked at Qi Yuning and smiled at him.
In the afternoon, Qi Yuning and Lu Ze took Lingling and Zhao Jie to the palace.
Prince Shou was overjoyed. Logically, it was impossible for his brothers to not go, but His Majesty could not be without his descendants. Even though he was an emperor, he was just like ordinary people. He could only leave with his descendants watching him for the last time.
Lingling and Zhao Jie arrived at the Taiji Hall, which added a lot of liveliness to the hall.
The Tai Chi Hall was no longer dead and gloomy.
Even when His Majesty wanted to smoke opium, he was concerned about his two children and didn't want to smoke anymore. It seemed that he thought his grandchildren who would inherit his fortune in the future and his only great-grandson would be more useful to him than opium.
Emperor Shi Yuan called Zhao Jie to his dragon bed, "Jie'er, do you want to be the emperor?"
Zhao Jie blinked and said, "I think the emperor is the most powerful, so he can protect mother!"
Emperor Shi Yuan touched Zhao Jie's little head and said, "The emperor is not the most powerful. An emperor has to take too many things into consideration. When you become the emperor, you will not only have to protect your mother, but also have to distinguish between loyalty and treachery, and protect the people of Dasheng. You will be busy all day long. Can you do it?"
Zhao Jie pursed his lips and said, "I will study hard and try my best to achieve it."
Lingling also climbed onto the dragon bed and smiled faintly at Emperor Shiyuan: "Grandfather, Lingling will help uncle to be a good emperor! Lingling already knows many, many words!"
Emperor Shi Yuan touched Ling Ling's head and said, "Good, you are really well behaved."
Emperor Shi Yuan said to Zhao Jie: "In the future, you must listen carefully to your cousin Ze."
"Zer, I entrust this Dasheng Kingdom and your cousin to you."
Lu Ze was well prepared, and he said, "I will do my best to assist my cousin Zhao Jie and help him become a wise ruler like you."
Emperor Shi Yuan coughed and said, "Okay."
Qi Yuning and Lu Ze accompanied Emperor Shi Yuan until late at night, until Prince Jin came to replace them. However, it was obvious that Emperor Shi Yuan did not like his son Prince Jin very much.
As soon as Prince Jin arrived, Emperor Shi Yuan showed no good face.
Qi Yuning and Lu Ze were on their way back to the princess's mansion with Lingling. Looking at the starry sky, Lingling was singing some random nursery rhymes, looking very happy.
After returning to the princess's residence, Qi Yuning went to wash up and asked Lu Ze to take Lingling to the small room to coax her to sleep.
Lingling entered the small side room, took Lu Ze's hand and asked, "Dad, did you catch the bugs for Mom?"
Lu Ze smiled faintly and said, "I caught him."
Lingling said: "Daddy, Lingling has been dreaming recently that this sign is lost. Lingling went to look for it, and a beam of light tried to suck Lingling away!"
"Lingling doesn't want to leave!"
Lu Ze touched Lingling's little face and said, "Lingling can leave. She will come back after she leaves."
Lingling snuggled in Lu Ze's arms and said coquettishly, "Lingling wants to sleep with mother today!"
"Can't."
Lingling pursed her lips and was about to cry.
Lu Ze said helplessly: "Don't cry, it's only allowed once today."
"Yeah!" Lingling happily hugged Lu Ze's neck.
After Qi Yuning washed up, she walked to the bedside and saw the quilt was lifted. Lingling appeared inside, "Mother!"
Qi Yuning hugged Lingling and kissed her on the cheek, "Good girl Lingling!"
Lingling said: "Daddy said today that Lingling can sleep with mommy. Lingling likes Daddy."
Qi Yuning smiled faintly and looked at Lu Ze beside her. She had her period these days, and Lu Ze was a good person!
"Does Lingling like mother or father more?"
Lingling hugged Qi Yuning and said, "Of course I love mom the most, because daddy also loves mom the most."
Qi Yuning said: "Mother's favorite is Lingling!"
Lu Ze looked at Qi Yuning deeply from the side.
After waiting for Lingling to fall asleep, Lu Ze carried Lingling to the crib and hugged Qi Yuning and asked, "Who do you like the most?"
Qi Yuning looked at Lu Ze and said, "Brother Ze, you wouldn't be so childish as to compete with Lingling for favor, would you?"
Lu Ze just looked deeply into Qi Yuning's eyes, "Who do you like the most?"
Qi Yuning whispered in Lu Ze's ear: "I like Lu Ze the most..."
Qi Yuning saw Lu Ze's peach blossom eyes light up, and smiled faintly, "His daughter."
Lu Ze said, “Just wait. After three days, when your period is over, I will not let you go no matter how much you beg for mercy.”
Qi Yuning was not afraid. "According to the time, I will definitely be pregnant with Lingling within a month! After I get pregnant with Lingling, you won't be able to make trouble anymore."
