Chapter 473, Lord Donglin enters the palace
Xia Wanwan was shocked by the minds of these two people and her back went numb.
Wow, Grandmother, won’t the Emperor be sad if you do this? The Queen Mother
naturally saw her doubts, bent down and stretched out her hands to hug Xia Wanwan,
"Concubine Xian has her own ideals and aspirations. She doesn’t want to be trapped here. It doesn’t matter whether the Emperor is sad or not. You can’t break a woman’s wings just because of his sadness. This is unfair!"
said
the Queen Mother. Concubine Xian was moved to tears.
Wuwuwu, she is worthy of being the champion of the palace fight last time. The Queen Mother understands her!
If she had been here earlier, she would have been able to have a good fight with the Queen Mother. If
there is Yu, why is there Liang!
Concubine Xian looked at the Queen Mother with sharp eyes. The Queen Mother silently raised her hand to block her sight, "I won't fight with you!"
Mainly because she spent a lot of effort to manage the harem like this, how could she let Concubine Xian fight again.
Later, after she focused on the court, she had no interest in the harem.
Until now.
She was not satisfied with the court. She was so angry at Dong Lin's behavior that she couldn't sleep all night!
She wanted to unify the world!!! She
didn't have the heart to play these house games with Concubine Xian like a child.
Concubine Xian pouted, "Sooner or later, I will go from palace fighting to power conspiracy!"
And then fight with the Queen Mother!
Queen Mother: "..."
Since Yu was born, why was Liang born?
The three of them came to the secret room of the Queen Mother's bedroom. When Xia Wanwan and Concubine Xian saw Wushuang's portrait, they stood up straight in shock, their eyes wide open, unable to believe what they saw!
Wushuang! She actually looks like this!
They looked at each other and felt their scalps tingling.

The next morning.
The whole palace was busy, because today was the banquet for the King of Donglin to come to the palace to celebrate His Majesty's birthday. All the concubines, princes, royal relatives and important officials of the court had to attend.
Of course, they couldn't be careless.
As the host, the court officials and palace families had taken their seats in advance. The emperor restored his solemn and dignified expression in the court, looked around and asked the queen beside him.
"Why don't you see Concubine Xian?"
Concubine Xian's position is the highest under the Empress. How could she be absent from such an important occasion?
The Empress was about to send someone to call Concubine Xian, but she saw her mother winking at her frantically.
No, don't care?
After getting along with the Queen Mother for a long time, the Empress knew her mother's intention at a glance. She silently pinched the handkerchief in her hand and said to the Emperor,
"Why not let Concubine Si take the position of Concubine Xian!"
The Emperor looked at the Empress in confusion.
The Empress' eyelids twitched. She had a bad premonition: the Emperor's other daughter-in-law might have run away!
"Do as the Empress says!" The Empress Dowager said slowly.
Concubine Si was startled by this huge surprise. She sat on the position of Concubine Xian!
Sure enough, as long as you listen to the Empress and don't fight in the palace, you can be promoted all of a sudden!
If I fight for it myself, I don't know when I will get the position of concubine! Concubine
Si was very happy. She sat in the position of Concubine Xian.
Next to her was the Ninth Princess holding her daughter.
"Baby, you can't eat this
yet!" "Baby, wait a little longer!"
"Baby, this one is not good either. It's not delicious!"
Liu Wan was busy grabbing her daughter's hand. Otherwise, the Lord of Donglin hadn't come yet, and the dishes in front of her would be grabbed by her little baby.
Xia Wanwan pouted her little mouth, quite dissatisfied, "I won't come... in the future... um!"
With a sweet cake stuffed in her mouth, Xia Wanwan turned her head and found that her father was looking at her with a smile.
She took the cake down and ate it happily in her mother's arms.
"This is what I got from my mother. It's okay." Xia Siheng whispered in Liu Wan's ear.
Liu Wan pursed her lips and smiled, "You know her too well."
How could her own child not understand? しΙиgㄚuΤＸΤ.ΠěＴSoon
, the court officials came in an orderly manner, all wearing court robes, and their families were dressed gorgeously, and all sat down here. Soon,
the eunuchs shouted loudly at the door: "The Lord of Donglin brought the envoys into the palace to see our emperor and wish him a long life!"
The emperor stood up and waved his hand, "Announce!"
The solemn bell rang, and everyone present looked towards the door.
This time, the formation was more solemn and luxurious than the last time to welcome the Nanmei Kingdom.
Because it was the emperor's birthday, it was extra grand, not only for their own face, but also to let the people of Donglin see the hospitality of our dynasty.
Everyone looked over.
After a while, everyone's faces became ugly.
The emperor has summoned!
Why hasn't anyone come in at the door yet?
Isn't this stepping on the emperor's face?
The eunuch at the door was an experienced old man. Seeing this, his face turned pale and he continued to shout, "Please invite the king of Donglin to bring the envoy into the palace!"
He had already shouted twice. If the people at the door were still ignorant, then they didn't understand etiquette.
Minister Liu of the Ministry of Rites looked unhappy when he saw this. He touched the firecrackers hidden in his sleeves, stood up and was about to walk to the door.
What a joke! He was in charge of the Ministry of Rites. When such a mistake happened, he naturally had to go out to check the situation.
But when he stood up, he saw a little girl skipping into the palace gate, laughing.
"Father, come in quickly, there are so many people here!"
She was lively and cheerful, wearing luxurious clothes with many bells hanging on them, which made crisp bell sounds when she moved.
Then, a man in bright yellow imperial clothing walked in.
He looked to be about forty years old. Because he had been an emperor for a long time, his face had a majestic and awe-inspiring demeanor, which made people dare not look directly at him for fear of offending him. Time
has not treated him badly. At the age of forty, he is still majestic and handsome, but there is an arrogant look in his eyes.
This is the Lord of Donglin.
The little girl who jumped in first was about ten years old. She should be the Lord of Donglin's youngest daughter, Princess Liuli.
King Donglin was followed by a beautiful woman holding a baby. The Queen Mother
recognized this woman, she was Concubine Jing Gui.
Because the maid next to Concubine Jing Gui was holding a familiar rabbit!
The atmosphere on the scene was very strange. If they followed the original etiquette, King Donglin should have walked in with everyone in front after the emperor gave the order.
But just now, the order was given twice, and when the third order was to be given, a princess walked in first.
The king did not walk in front, but let the princess walk in front!
Is this saying that our Majesty is only worthy of being led by a princess to an audience?
This is a naked slap in the face of the Great Xia Dynasty.
The emperor looked very unhappy, but his face was serious today, and it was hard to tell how angry he was.
The emperor raised his hand gently, "Come here, drag the eunuch who delivered the message out and give him fifty lashes!"
"Your Majesty, why is this happening? We have come thousands of miles away, and you are going to punish an innocent person in front of us?" Princess Liuli looked unconvinced.
But she was quickly pulled back by the Lord of Donglin.
The queen smiled and said, "Just now, the eunuch did not shout loud enough, so the distinguished guests from Donglin did not hear him, so they embarrassed themselves in front of our ministers. It is right to punish him. I hope you will not take it to heart. We really don't think you are embarrassed, it's just that the eunuch was not considerate in delivering the message!"
