During a heartwarming moment at Chenggan Palace, in front of the Jiaotai Hall, officials and their female relatives stood on either side according to rank. Fei Yanggu and his two sons did not bring any members of the Gioro clan.
"Feiyanggu, where is your wife?" Yin Jitai came over with his son and was surprised to see that Feiyanggu had not brought his wife.
"She's sick, to avoid spreading the infection, let her stay in the mansion." Fei Yanggu learned that Lady Jue Luo had gone to the Prince's mansion to ask for jewelry and had even stirred up rumors.
Lady Jue Luo, who was not far away, noticed that Lady Ulanara was not there. Her heart skipped a beat. The headdress on her head was sent directly to the mansion by Lady Jue Luo because she had no choice but to accept the commotion.
"What's wrong with my sister?" As one of only two members of the Gioro clan who could participate in the major court affairs, Seketu still hoped that her brother-in-law could lend a hand. "Did your jewelry come from my sister?"
When Seko heard the rumors, his first reaction was that the two women were causing trouble again.
“Of course, you’ve asked me so many times. If it weren’t for my sister giving it to me, would I have been so bold as to bring it out?” Songgriya quickly replied.
Many officials' relatives glanced at Fei Yanggu and Seketu out of the corner of their eyes, trying to see if the two were interacting.
Seketu wanted to move closer to Feiyanggu, but the difference in their positions in the court was too great. In addition, everyone had heard about the Jueluo clan's frequent disturbances at Linglong Pavilion, so they all separated the two families.
"Is Xiao Guai alright over there?" Fu Quan saw Fei Yang Gu and quickly came over. The little guy had given him two sets of exquisite jewelry and a matching jade pendant. Such a thoughtful gesture was enough to make him seem unfilial.
"It's alright." Fei Yanggu sighed helplessly.
The surrounding officials pricked up their ears; the Gioro clan was already at the bottom of the imperial family.
The war between the two families attracted a large audience.
"His Majesty has decreed that officials' wives can only order one set of headdress. Which family would like to order more?" Fuquan's wife looked at Fei Yanggu. The three of them were close and often met outside the palace.
The families were quite close, and Fuquan's wife was the eldest sister-in-law of the group.
“Well, Xiao Guai has been giving it to them for free for several years now, they’ve gotten used to it,” Fei Yanggu said helplessly.
Linglong Pavilion was part of Xiao Guai's dowry, not a family business.
What? !
Everyone around was shocked. After years of free headwear, the women of the Jue Luo clan were still not satisfied?
"Why didn't Xiao Guai say anything?" Fu Quan's wife was stunned. Xiao Guai's jewelry was always of the highest quality, and it was quite good that so many designs were produced every year.
well......
Fei Yanggu sighed. If Xiao Guai says one more word, people will say she's being framed.
"Never mind, she's a junior, saying more would only be wrong," Fei Yanggu sighed.
Saito and Eshuo stood silently to the side, while Qingyan had no choice but to resist.
"Your Excellencies and Ladies, His Majesty is on his way!" Yinhe Qingyan, carrying the twins, walked out of the palace with the First Prince's family and saw the ministers gathered in front of the Hall of Union.
Qingyan looked at the hairpins of the ladies. Most of them were new. When he saw the hairpin of the second lady of the Jue Luo clan, Songgeliya, his pupils couldn't help but shrink. It was obviously his mother's.
She immediately turned to look at Fei Yanggu's side, and sure enough, Jue Luo had to cancel her attendance at the banquet due to illness in order to avoid wearing her old jewelry.
"Mother's jewelry has been given away. It seems that my plan to teach them a lesson has failed again!" Qingyan said helplessly.
Jue Luo was always a hindrance, but for the sake of her maternal family, she was willing to give up her own glory.
Yin looked at Qingyan with a hint of worry. After the banquet, he would have a trusted imperial physician examine Jueluo Shi's pulse. There shouldn't be any major problems.
"Before Father Emperor arrives, you two should hurry and pay your respects to your father-in-law and the others!" Yin stepped forward to remind his two sisters-in-law that opportunities to pay respects to family members were rare.
Yin Genjue Luo and Qing Yan exchanged a glance, then led the children toward their respective families. Su Lan and Su Zhu, carrying the twins, followed Qing Yan toward Fei Yanggu and his two sons.
“Father, Ah Hun!” Qingyan looked at Fei Yanggu, the corners of his mouth slightly upturned.
"Greetings to the Fourth Prince's wife, greetings to the young prince and princess!" Everyone around bowed.
"Begin to kowtow." Qingyan waved his hand, not allowing the ministers to actually bow down.
Everyone left the space to Fei Yanggu's family, and Qingyan let the father and brothers see the children.
"Why didn't Mother come?" Qingyan asked, puzzled. She hadn't heard that Lady Jue Luo was ill. "Could it be because of that matter?"
Qingyan felt a little regretful. If she hadn't restricted the number of people from the Jue Luo family, would her mother have been able to participate?
“No, she’s sick.” Fei Yanggu shook his head. The Jue Luo clan attacked her mind with a crossbow. Song Geliya couldn’t get any benefits from Qingyan’s side, so she directly broke into the old house and took away the Jue Luo clan’s jewelry.
Fei Yanggu lowered his voice and told the truth directly.
Most of the people around were military officers, and they all had excellent hearing. When they heard about the farce between Lady Ulanara and her family, they couldn't help but gasp in astonishment.
"I knew it. Tomorrow, let Mother come to Yuanmingyuan. I'll have Linglong Pavilion send over another set of jewelry!" Qingyan didn't think there was much of a problem. It was just jewelry, after all.
Fei Yanggu sighed; he had still caused trouble for the child.
"Go back quickly, His Majesty will be here soon!" Fei Yanggu urged Qingyan to go back first; the eyes of the ministers said it all.
Their best course of action is to stop short of making a move.
"Well, Yiken, you two say goodbye to Guo Luomafa?" Qingyan wants the children to have a close relationship with their elders, so she wants them to have more contact with their elders.
The twins raised their chubby little hands and made a grasping motion in mid-air.
This adorable little gesture brought smiles to the faces of many ministers.
As news of the Emperor's fondness for twins continued to circulate, the in-laws of the princes would inevitably be wary of them.
At this moment, they understood to some extent why Kangxi liked it; this feeling of closeness was something that older generations all desired.
During this year's Golden Festival, after the wives return to their parents' homes, many people will advise them to spend more time with their children and elders.
Qingyan walked to Yin's side and stood behind him.
"I hope there's nothing wrong with my mother-in-law?" Yin thought. He had already asked Su Peisheng to find a very discreet and well-connected imperial physician to go to the Yuanmingyuan Garden tomorrow to examine the two of them.
"It should be alright. I've already spoken to Father, and I've arranged for her to go to the Yuanmingyuan with Mother!" As Qingyan finished speaking, the Emperor's whip cracked, and everyone, led by the Crown Prince, knelt on the ground.
She always felt a resentful gaze from her left. He glanced at her out of the corner of his eye and saw the Crown Princess's expression change so quickly that she still caught it.
Ugh!
Did she do something to anger the Crown Princess?
"Fourth Brother, what happened to that person again?" Qingyan asked Yin via spatial telepathy.
"The Crown Princess is putting on too much airs, acting like a princess in the most proper way," Yin said coldly.
Compared to the Grand Princess Consort and Qingyan, the Crown Princess's treatment of her family was worlds apart. (To be continued. If you like this work, please vote for it on Qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
