Xin Guoguo felt a little helpless.
This imperial concubine seems to have the temper of a child.
"yes."
She responded and sat back in her seat obediently.
The Queen looked at the Imperial Concubine, shook her head and laughed:
"You, you, you are already grown up, why are you still so childish?"
The imperial concubine covered her mouth and chuckled:
"What are you talking about, sister? She's just a child! And if you don't pinch and play with such a cute little girl, you'll be doing yourself a disservice."
Queen: ...
Yang Sanniang: ...
Xin Guoguo: ...
She's still here!
Can you say this in front of people?
The Queen laughed and pointed at her from a distance with her finger:
"Just be naughty! When Ting'er starts to make trouble with you later, don't look for me."
As soon as these words were spoken, the imperial concubine's expression changed immediately.
She looked horrified: "Sister, how could you treat me like this and hurt my heart?"
Everyone watched her act funny and smiled softly with their hands covering their lips.
"I've long heard that the Empress and the Imperial Concubine share a deep sisterly bond. Now it seems their reputation is well-deserved."
At this time, a woman with jingling jade rings sitting next to Xing Guoguo and her daughter covered her lips and spoke.
There was a smile between his eyebrows and eyes.
But the words he said were tinged with flattery.
The queen smiled faintly and did not respond.
The Imperial Concubine chuckled twice: "My sister and I are childhood friends, we are blood sisters."
The woman was stunned when she heard this.
Knowing that his flattery was directed at the wrong person, he smiled awkwardly, pursed his lips, and dared not speak again.
Everyone laughed and talked for a while.
The imperial concubine couldn't help but look at Xin Guoguo's face.
She looked envious and said, "Sister Xin, can you tell me how I can have such a lovely daughter like you? The more I look at this little girl, the more I like her."
The queen looked at her helplessly.
Yang Sanniang smiled a little embarrassedly: "Your Majesty will have it in the future too."
How should she respond to this?
Her daughter is unique.
How can anyone get what they want?
But how could she dare to say this to the Imperial Concubine?
Just politeness.
Upon hearing this, the imperial concubine's eyes dimmed for a moment, almost imperceptibly: "Then I'll take your good words."
Yang Sanniang smiled and said nothing more.
At this time, a palace maid came to report that the banquet was about to begin and everyone was invited to go to Chonghua Terrace.
So, all the female relatives immediately stood up and moved to Chonghua Terrace.
The queen waited for the emperor to come and went with him.
Along the way, the imperial concubine held Xin Guoguo's hand and asked her various questions, appearing very affectionate.
Xin Guoguo also answered them one by one.
But in my heart, I really can't stand the imperial concubine's enthusiasm.
Fortunately, Chonghuatai was soon reached.
At this time, all the officials were already inside.
A group of officials gathered in twos and threes, chatting and laughing.
After the ladies entered, they were each arranged to find their own seat and sit down.
Xin Guoguo's family is located relatively far back.
As an official who had just been transferred back to Beijing from the provincial capital, it was a rare opportunity to attend a banquet of this scale.
Xin Sanlang was originally talking to Lu Ze, discussing the next work matters.
The performance report can be completed after the Wanshou Festival.
By then, new appointments will be made.
They have to prepare in advance.
Although he was talking, Xin Sanlang's eyes were always on the entrance of the hall.
As soon as he saw his wife and daughter come in, he spoke faster.
After one question was finished, he simply said, "We'll talk about the rest another day."
He hurried towards his wife and daughter.
Lu Ze, who was suddenly left behind: ...
Although I'm already used to Xin Sanlang doing this.
But at this moment, he still couldn't help but twitching his lips.
I have never seen a man who is so attached to his wife!
Xin Sanlang didn't care about Lu Ze's complaints. He was already sticking to his wife and whispering to her.
Xin Zhixia was pulled over by the generals early in the morning.
Most of the military generals were straightforward in nature. They had long heard that Xiangcheng Mansion had produced a martial arts genius who had already taken the position of deputy military commander of Xiangcheng Mansion at a young age.
This time, he was transferred directly from the local area to Kyoto and became the commander of the North City Army under the Jiucheng Bingma Division.
If today was not the Emperor's birthday, the generals would have probably dragged Xin Zhixia into a duel when they saw her.
Seeing her mother and sister come in, Xin Zhixia was about to go over, but General Lu pulled her directly to sit next to him:
"Come on, come on, sit down. I heard from Lu Ze that you were the one who led the three bandit suppression campaigns. Could you please tell me the specific arrangements for those three campaigns?"
Xin Zhixia had no choice but to bite the bullet and tell the story again, which she had already told countless times before.
But at this moment, the eunuch's shrill voice echoed from outside:
"His Majesty has arrived! The Empress has arrived! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived!"
Everyone returned to their seats.
Xin Zhixia was pulled by the general and stood beside him.
When the emperor and his companions stepped onto Chonghua Terrace, everyone bowed in greeting.
"Your Highness, I pay my respects to His Majesty. Long live His Majesty. I pay my respects to Her Majesty, may Your Highness live a thousand years, a thousand years, and a thousand years. I pay my respects to His Royal Highness, may Your Highness live a thousand years, a thousand years, and a thousand years."
After the thunderous cheers, the emperor and empress had already climbed onto the high platform.
The prince stayed at the foot of the platform, bowing with his hands clasped.
