Chapter 579 Princess Rongning
Halfway through February, the Queen's health gradually improved.
She lost a lot of weight, but she managed to get through it.
The third prince's wedding was on February 26. The queen still pulled herself together to deal with these matters.
And the little princess of Chao Kingdom also entered the imperial city on February 21st.
The little princess was named Princess Rongning, and her maiden name was Shangguan Ji. She was naturally very good-looking. She was the daughter of a concubine of the Emperor of Chaoguo, but the concubine was obviously not favored and could not protect her own daughter.
On that day, a banquet was held in the palace to entertain the princess of Chao who came from afar and the ministers of Chao who brought her here.
After all, it was a state banquet. Although the princess was young, she was from another country.
Naturally, the scale could not be small, so the banquet was held in Longzong Hall.
The little princess put on gorgeous palace dress and walked towards the hall.
She tilted her head back, with a golden crown on her head. Although it was heavy, she still held her head high.
The slender neck looks fragile yet stubborn.
She was very polite and walked forward slowly and knelt on the ground: "Rong Ning has come from afar, thank you for the hospitality of His Majesty Emperor Dayi. Rong Ning is very grateful."
"I bow to the Emperor, the Empress, and the Empress Dowager." She was a junior, so it was not shameful for her to pay respects to these three people from Chaoguo.
"Get up." Qi Yixiu smiled and said, "Princess, you have come from afar, please don't be polite, just treat this place as your home."
Princess Rongning thanked him and stood up.
The queen smiled and said, "I have been away from home for a long time and have never seen you. Come and sit here with me."
Rongning thanked him again and sat down beside the Queen, on the same level as the Second Princess.
The envoys from the Kingdom of Chao came forward and were polite again.
Shen Chuliu turned sideways and spoke to Concubine Li: "This princess is different from what I thought."
Concubine Li whispered, "Yes, he is quite stubborn."
Shen Chuliu smiled, wondering if this stubbornness was a good thing or not. It was a pity that such a young child was sent out.
Her mother didn't know how to grieve.
In this regard, Qi Yixiu was indeed much better than the emperor of Chaoguo.
The second princess still took good care of this princess. After all, in terms of blood relationship, she was her cousin.
So soon, she started calling her sister Ji.
Shen Chuliu laughed when she heard that her name was also Ji, and Pei Ji was also Ji. But these two people were very different, it was just a coincidence.
In the evening, the emperor did not go to the queen's place because today was not a holiday.
And the new princess temporarily lived in the queen's palace.
So Qi Yixiu went to Yufu Palace.
Shen Chuliu drank a few extra cups today. He had just washed up and was sitting there drinking tea, feeling dizzy.
When Qi Yixiu came, her greetings were a little crooked.
Qi Yixiu laughed: "My beloved, are you drunk? How did you drink so much?"
Could she still drink too much at the party?
"Hmm?" Shen Chuliu stared blankly: "It tasted good so I drank a few more cups. The emperor couldn't bear to part with it?"
"Am I so stingy?" Qi Yixiu laughed and helped her sit down: "Go get her something to eat."
Qi Yixiu helped Shen Chuliu sit on the couch.
"I think the little princess is quite pretty and stubborn." Shen Chuliu smiled.
"My beloved concubine likes it?" Qi Yixiu thought for a moment and said, "If my beloved concubine likes it, it's not impossible to consider giving it to Yan'er. But... she can't be my legal wife."
"Ah? Why?" Shen Chuliu was confused at the moment and reacted slowly.
"I will take good care of Yan'er's legal wife." He felt that his son would be wronged if the little princess of Chao State became Yan'er's legal wife.
Just a princess, of no use.
"Why give it to Yan'er? Besides, it's not Yan'er who likes it, but I like it." Shen Chuliu sat up straight this time.
"I just said that, why are you so anxious? Do you get impatient when you're drunk?" Qi Yixiu patted her head and said, "The child is still young, let's talk about it in a few years. The princes get married at the age of sixteen or seventeen, and Yan'er is still young."
"Oh." Shen Chuliu nodded: "Your Majesty is right, shall we have some glutinous rice balls?"
Qi Yixiu...
This illogical Shen Chuliu is really rare. Cute.
However, Shen Chuliu's confusion did not last long, and he soon became alert after eating.
"Dizzy?" the emperor asked when he saw her rubbing her head.
"No, it just feels a little bloated. I won't dare drink so much in the future." In fact, she just hadn't drunk alcohol for a long time, so she couldn't control herself for a moment.
While the two were talking, Yuanxiao called out "Master" from outside.
"What's wrong?"
"My lord, it's Zhang Baolin's people who came. They said that Zhang Baolin is not feeling well and they want to ask the emperor to come and see him." Yuanxiao wanted to laugh as he spoke.
However, Chusi was just standing there, holding it in.
But Shen Chuliu in the room didn't have to hold back: "Pfft... When did the emperor enter Xinglin? I didn't even know?"
"Nonsense. Tell her to call the imperial physician. If she doesn't know the rules at all, she should just go and live in Beigong Garden." The emperor said indifferently.
As he grew older, his patience with the young concubines in the harem naturally became less and less.
After all, he has been the emperor for so many years, and no matter how much he likes to act, he will get tired of it sometimes.
Especially these little concubines who don’t know the importance of the matter.
Shen Chuliu found it novel. It had been many years since such a thing as interception had happened.
The next day, Zhang Baolin was stared at a lot.
She herself was fine, so Shen Chuliu naturally didn't bother to cause trouble for her.
After the Queen came out, she told her about the arrangements for Princess Rongning. Naturally, there was a place for her to live in Ruiqing Palace, so she would be arranged to move in. However, there was no rush, as she had to make good arrangements there first and then move in.
After the meeting, Concubine Shun suddenly asked, "What do you think...should we invite Princess Rongning to dinner?"
When this statement was made, some people thought it made sense, while others thought it was crazy.
The one who felt sick was Shen Chuliu.
"Sister Shunfei is different now." Shen Chuliu smiled and said, "I'll invite you. I'm a lazy person. I have a son, so I dare not do anything reckless. I would not be happy if people thought I had other intentions."
With that she left.
Concubine Li smiled and followed him.
Concubine Qian Shu was quite thoughtful.
Although she also felt that Rong Ning would not be a concubine to the second prince, what if? Concubine Ning was the calmest. Her son was still young, so it would be fine even if she invited guests.
After hearing what Shen Chuliu said, Concubine Shun didn't dare to say anything else. Concubine Qian Shu thought to herself that she didn't want to take the lead either.
So we just dispersed like this.
When the princes went to Fengzao Palace to pay their respects, the Sixth Prince suggested: "Why don't we go and see Princess Rongning?"
He was not old enough to understand the affairs between men and women. He was just curious. When a strange pretty girl came, boys would also be curious.
What's more, boys matured early in ancient times.
The Fourth Prince and the Fifth Prince also had this idea, but they were too embarrassed to say it out loud.
The eighth prince was more frank: "Yeah!"
The Ninth Prince also nodded secretly.
The tenth prince was the youngest and the most curious, so he naturally agreed.
So after paying his respects, he was in no hurry to leave and went to see the little princess.
The second princess knocked on their heads when she saw them, "What should we do if we make others feel embarrassed?"
Another shameless month is about to pass.
