Chapter 284 Banquet at the Prince's Mansion

Author: Fragrance is all over the world

The second prince's main concubine, Mrs. Zhang, felt strange. It was clearly Jiang's concubine who was pregnant. Why did the second prince come to see her?

"Why is Your Highness interested in coming to my place?"

Mrs. Zhang was confused, but she still looked flattered.

The second prince took Zhang's hand affectionately and said, "My beloved, I have been busy during this period and have neglected you. My beloved, you won't blame me, right?"

Zhang smiled slightly and said, "Your Highness, government affairs are important. Your Highness is the prince of Dashun, so he should share the emperor's worries. These are what I should do."

With that said, Mrs. Zhang calmly took out her hand and handed the second prince a bowl of hot tea.

But in fact, she wished that the second prince was so busy!

When Zhang first married the second prince, she was still somewhat sincere. Later, she gradually saw through the second prince's cold heart. There was no love between husband and wife, it was just a marriage of interests.

So over the years, Mrs. Zhang had already figured out the second prince's thoughts. I am afraid that something needs to happen now that she needs to step forward, otherwise the second prince would not come to see her.

"Your Highness is having tea. Your Highness has encountered some difficulties. I wonder if I can help His Highness."

Mrs. Zhang said while removing the indifference from her eyes.

This was what the second prince was waiting for. It would be better to get straight to the point, so as not to waste his time trying to lead the conversation out.

"My concubine is really smart. This prince really has something to do, and in this matter, only my concubine can take care of this prince's worries."

Zhang said, "Your Highness, please tell me, it is my honor to be able to share your worries."

"That's good." The second prince said, "Actually, I came here for my concubine. The doctor took her pulse and said that the concubine's pregnancy has been stable for three months. It just so happened that my prince had just recovered from a long illness, so I thought it would be better to

To take this opportunity to add some joy to the house, how about hosting a banquet?"

Finding the homeless man was already before Pei Mo fell off the cliff, and at this time, Pei Mo returned to the capital safely.

Concubine Jiang actually hid her pregnancy for three months. If it weren't for Wu De, I'm afraid this child wouldn't be discovered until Concubine Jiang became pregnant.

No one knows whether Concubine Jiang's luck is good or bad.

This may be a trick of fate. If Concubine Jiang couldn't think of seducing the second prince, how could she have caused such trouble? If Concubine Jiang hadn't stopped in front of Wude, how could she have exposed this child to everyone?

inside.

Is it because the second prince is evil-hearted, or is it because Concubine Jiang is responsible for her own misfortune?

No one can tell clearly.

Mrs. Zhang suddenly thought, "This is a very good idea. I think it may have been a long time since I came to the palace to hold a happy event. I will wait for a good day and send the wedding invitations to the officials' wives. I just don't know that Your Highness wants to have a big event."

, it’s better to only invite those who care and are close to you.”

"Of course it has to be a grand event, inviting all officials, big and small, to make it lively and lively!"

As the second prince spoke, his eyes looked thoughtful and seemed to be absent-minded.

Mrs. Zhang did not miss his expression, and she felt a little more cautious in her heart. She was afraid that something would happen at this banquet.

It's not just anyone who is so unlucky, Zhang thought.

"Okay, I understand. I will ask someone to look at the almanac tomorrow and choose an auspicious day."

"Then thank you for your hard work, concubine." The second prince finally smiled.

Soon, the day of the banquet at the Second Prince's Mansion came, and the whole house was filled with joy.

Neither Pei Mo nor Murong Qing came, and almost no generals showed up at the prince's residence.

Of course, they are not the protagonists of this banquet.

Concubine Jiang was extremely happy that day. She didn't expect that one of her concubines would actually sit next to the second prince. This should have been the seat of the principal concubine Zhang.

On the other hand, the seats at Zhang's banquet were actually one level lower than Concubine Jiang's.

This strange seating order left all the official wives present scratching their heads.

Halfway through the banquet, Concubine Jiang was receiving flattery from other ladies.

"Hey, the concubine is so majestic. I heard that the second prince loves the empress very much. The ginseng and bird's nests are all given to the empress like running water. Even the second prince and the main concubine were not so lucky!"

A woman whose name cannot be named said.

"Yes, yes, and that's not all. I heard that His Highness the Second Prince even asked the Emperor for some soothing incense sent as tribute from foreign countries, just to let the queen have a good sleep. With such honor and favor, the queen is still alone.

One portion!”

"I have also heard about it. It is said that the Second Prince's Mansion has prepared a woman to deliver the baby. I dare to ask the empress if this is true or not?"

A gossiping woman dared to ask.

When Concubine Jiang heard their flattery, her heart almost flew to the sky. In the past, when she was the most noble, those people only called her Concubine Concubine.

But now, everyone calls her empress!

Concubine Jiang held her head high, as if she had really become the empress of the palace. She covered her mouth and smiled arrogantly, "It's not that exaggerated. It's just that His Highness cherishes me, but it's still early for the child to be born after ten months of pregnancy.

I tried to persuade His Highness, but His Highness refused to listen and insisted on finding three experienced women for me."

Even if you get a bargain, you still behave well.

As soon as he said this, the ladies surrounding Concubine Jiang exclaimed, "Oh my god, we actually invited three wives!"

"When the Queen gave birth to the Prince, there were only five midwives!"

Then there was another burst of noise, as if a drop of water fell into the oil pan.

The second prince and the male guests were chatting happily. Concubine Jiang was surrounded by a table of people, but there were only a few people on the concubine Zhang's side. The lady, who was confused about the situation, thought it was the second prince and the concubine who was pregnant.

.

The banquet got into its main theme, everyone sat at their seats and tasted the wine. At this time, the second prince gave the steward next to him a look.

The manager understood and quietly retreated behind the scenes.

Soon, a woman came forward with a bowl of ginseng soup and said, "Concubine Concubine, this is the astragalus chicken soup that Concubine Concubine specially ordered to cook. It is dedicated to Concubine Concubine. I hope Concubine Concubine will enjoy it and taste it."

Zhang nodded, even though this was not her idea at all, but the second prince had arranged it long ago and only informed her the night before.

The concubine looked ugly, and the mother-in-law sent by the second prince to look after her said that if she eats too much during pregnancy, she will become bloated, and it will be difficult to recover after giving birth. In this way, it will be difficult to please the second prince.

Therefore, Concubine Jiang is on a deliberate diet and only eats a little bit at a meal, as long as she is not hungry.

She recalled the rumors with a complicated expression. It was said that the concubine Zhang gained weight due to overeating when she was pregnant with her first child, so much so that the fat on her belly has not gone away even now.

Concubine Jiang and the main concubine Zhang were not dealing with each other. At this time, she began to think in a dark place. She was surprised to realize that Mrs. Zhang was not jealous of her slim figure and wanted to overeat and become like her.

Bar!

Combined with the fact that many of the food and drinks in the yard were sent by Zhang, Concubine Jiang became more and more sure of her idea.
