Chapter 279 The Discordant Notes of the Banquet
Before lunch, the Empress Dowager moved from the courtyard to Zhan Huaitang. Concubine Tong and others were waiting in the hall. The Empress Dowager helped Su Moer step by step into the hall, and everyone knelt on the ground to pay their respects.
After the Empress Dowager sat down, she did not ask everyone to get up. Everyone knelt on the side with their heads lowered and the sound of the emperor whip sounded outside the courtyard, and the Empress Dowager could no longer swivel.
Kangxi walked into the hall with great strides, and he saluted the Queen Mother in a regular manner.
"Please pay tribute to the emperor," Kangxi stood up directly after saluting, "You all should get up."
Kangxi waved to the palace concubines and concubines. Among the daughter-in-law, the two legitimate concubines were happy. Although the month was not the first three months, it would be better to be careful.
Kangxi directly helped Concubine Tong up and asked her to sit closely behind. The empress dowager saw that she could not take the opportunity and had to endure the anger in her heart.
"My mom, are you angry again?" Kangxi led the prince, outside the pass, with the Mongolian princes and royal families. When they saw the Queen Mother's behavior in the courtyard, they frowned, feeling that the Queen Mother was a little too much.
Among the female relatives, many are pregnant, and there are two princes outside the pass who are about to give birth. If they kneel for too long, it will not be good for the child.
"Emperor, I should teach the rules well as the prince's legitimate concubines. You must know that respecting the elders is the only way to do this!" The Empress Dowager believed that Yin Genjueluo was provoking trouble with Qingyan, otherwise the fifth concubine would not cause any big trouble.
The Queen Mother's words made the female relatives feel that the Queen Mother obviously complained first by the evil ones. The female relatives were all witnesses. The Queen Mother said it directly now, it was someone else's fault, which obviously made the female relatives slap in the face.
As soon as the words were finished, the women's faces became gloomy and they felt even more uncomfortable. The Queen Mother had no suspense and was ready to fight to the end.
"This year is the Little New Year, and everyone will no longer make trouble." Kangxi scolded, "Li Dequan, prepare to start the banquet!"
Kangxi stopped everyone from complaining and directly asked them to shut up. The empress dowager was choked and could only remain silent.
"Mother Huang, let them solve the matter of juniors by themselves. If the legitimate wife has no rights, the mansion will be in chaos!" Kangxi said a little.
The Empress Dowager didn't say anything, and the women all understood that the Long Live Master was referring to the female relatives in the fifth master's mansion, which made Yinqi feel dull.
Qing Yan sat next to Yin, looking at the food on the small table, feeling a little moved.
On the dining table, there were many things that pregnant women who were young in the month could not use, which was obviously for the Qing Banquet.
If the Qing Banquet had a miscarriage before the Chinese New Year, it would be a sin. Of course, if he had been a confinement school, he would not have any female relatives to accompany him when Yin returned to the military port, and Kangxi would definitely choose a few concubines for him.
He frowned slightly and directly pressed down Qingyan's hand preparing the magic chopsticks, telling her not to use it anymore.
"Si4, if not, the Empress Dowager will definitely say it!" Qing Yan used the space's message system to communicate with Yin.
"Even if it is said, it is not important to have children!" Yin firmly opposed the Qingban food. If it was used, there might be really problems. If Doctor Yuan diagnosed the child again, it would be fine, the Empress Dowager would definitely be confused.
The Empress Dowager has been paying attention to the Qing Banquet. The table was prepared by the Queen Mother for the imperial kitchen, and it was also the opinions put forward by the Mongolian people. After all, most of the noble ladies in Mongolia were given marriage to the royal family. If something happened to the Qing Banquet at this time, the noble ladies brought by the Qin kings of Mongolia would definitely be able to squeeze into the residence of the Fourth Master.
The result was very disappointing. Qingyan had given birth once after all, and she was very clear about the things that were banned. In addition, after 30 years, she even listed some ancient people to frame people online. Qingyan avoided the repeated frame-ups.
"I understand!" Qing Yan compromised under Yin's eyes. Kangxi and Concubine Tong saw it, and they felt a little relieved.
"From the fourth family, isn't the imperial dishes in line with your appetite?" the queen mother asked directly.
In the Queen Mother's words, the empress dowager implies that the Qing banquet was more luxurious than the palace.
"Madam Huang, you wronged me. I was a little hungry in the flower hall and used a lot of things. Now I can't eat them anymore!" Qingyan said it was inevitable for the royal family and did not say much.
The women all had eyes and looked at the Fourth Master’s table, and there were some delicious dishes that were absolutely unusable for pregnant women, so everyone was confused.
Who attacked the Fourth Princess?
The Queen Mother's questioning made everyone focus on the Mongolian people. The Mongolian princes and concubines were a little annoyed, and the Queen Mother had enough methods.
Kangxi frowned. He was staring at the Empress Dowager's actions, and the Qing Banquet was very satisfied.
"Okay, if Xiaoguai doesn't suit her taste, go back and use it." Kangxi said tolerantly, "Old guy, if you don't suit her taste, don't force her!"
The two legitimate concubines were happy, which made Kangxi very happy. His sons had few children, which made him very angry. If they were all like the Queen Mother, when would the princes' children stand up?
Yin Gen felt that Luo was relieved and put down his chopsticks to thank him. She had basically used it for her to be picky just now. Now, she can avoid these things.
Kangxi said a few more words in the scene. The hall was openly revived, but no one dared to approach the surrounding King Qin of Mongolia, for fear that he would also arouse Kangxi's anger.
"Si4, do you mean the empress dowager or the princes?!" Qing Yan was a little curious. The princes in Mongolia seemed to be very reckless, but why are they so scheming here?
"It should be the Queen Mother. Those princes will not worry about these things. The Queen Mother will only bring them benefits!" Yin understood that the princes of Mongolia always focused on interests and would not take anything else seriously.
Qing Yan's lips raised slightly. Sure enough, just like what she expected, some of the legitimate concubines showed pain on their faces. Those legitimate concubines had never had legitimate sons. The princes did not go to the legitimate concubines' tents for the rest of the time except when they met Kangxi.
Today, Kangxi made it clear that he must give his wife the face. In addition to the fifth wife, he is also attacking the princes of Mongolia.
While everyone was having a meal, singing and dancing were performed in the hall. The Mongolian princes shook each other, hoping that the other party would ask in advance to give their daughters a chance to perform.
Qingyan appeared, poking Yin's arm, letting him see the eyes of the princes. Kangxi actually appeared, but there was no room for them to speak.
"Wait, the Emperor Ahma arranged it freely!" Yin Xian smiled on Kangxi's face, and Yin stopped talking and just let her watch the show obediently.
Qingyan smiled with a pursed lips. She liked watching opera the most.
