MTL - Crowned with Pearls-Chapter 1249 Forty eight
Chapter 1249 Chapter 48 · Really rushed back!
The Empress Dowager Tian smiled and patted Su Yao's hand: "Xiao Wu usually likes to make a fool of himself, let's ignore him."
Xiao Heng is going to inspect the military camp, and the inspection of the military camp is not a one-time event. He has already decided to go for half a month. Not a person who ignores the overall situation, Empress Dowager Tian is afraid that Xiao Heng will not come back by then, and Su Yaohui will feel left out.
The fifth prince scratched his head and said nothing.
Yin Congqing persuaded him softly from the side: "Your Highness, please stop talking nonsense."
The fifth prince got serious, lowered his voice and said to Yin Congqing: "Where am I talking nonsense? Originally what I said was the truth! If you don't believe it, just wait and see!"
Empress Dowager Tian's palace was very lively, and the singing and dancing began soon. Empress Dowager Tian pointed at the late Eleventh Princess and smiled: "Look at this little slacker, she said that today is a banquet, she came so late, what should I do? Punish!"
The Eleventh Princess smiled, stepped forward and called her grandmother softly, and stayed still beside the Queen Mother Tian.
Su Yao turned to look at her and saw that her eyes were red, even if she was covered with powder, she could still see the traces of her crying.
Princess Eleven has always been favored in the palace. Whether it is Emperor Yuanfeng or Concubine Pang Gui, they all like her very much. She seldom cried, but today she cried before the palace banquet started. Su Yao was a little worried. After a while, while she got up to go to the Guangfeng Jiyue Palace to attend the banquet, she asked the Eleventh Princess softly what happened.
Princess Eleven's eyes turned red again when she heard the words. She had a good relationship with Su Yao, but now Su Yao asked her, she didn't hide it, she was aggrieved, her mouth was shriveled, and she almost cried again: "My mother-in-law said that the Dongying people sent When the embassy came over, they said that they wanted to marry the princess of the country, and some ministers said, I am the most suitable age, and I was born by a noble concubine."
She couldn't help it, even though she knew that today was a palace banquet, she cried at Concubine Pang Gui.
In the past, the Eleventh Princess didn't want to get married very much. What's good about getting married? She watched too many of her companions getting married. Before marriage, her companions were full of vigor. After they were married, they were like withered flowers, becoming lifeless and stagnant.
When she heard that she was going to marry someone from Dongying, she was so angry that she couldn't even eat.
Those Eastern Ying people, I heard that Ru Mao drinks blood, and are very violent and narrow-minded. If you don't mention anything else, you will know that they are not human at all when they invade the coast and slaughter so many people! To marry over there, Princess Eleven felt scared just thinking about it.
But Concubine Pang ruthlessly said that as a princess, enjoying the worship of the common people and infinite honor, you should have the consciousness to contribute to the country. If the court finally decides to agree to the request of the envoy from the East, then the eleventh princess will go. and pro.
Princess Eleven was unwilling, she was extremely afraid in her heart, even the concubine said so, she really didn't know what to expect in life.
Su Yao also frowned, she didn't expect the court to have such an argument.
Especially under the premise that the Japanese pirates in the East had just invaded Songjiang Prefecture and killed so many civilians and soldiers and civilians.
shook the hand of Princess Eleven, Su Yao comforted her softly: "Don't worry, Your Majesty may not agree."
These words could not comfort Princess Eleven. She knew best in her heart that her father might be fond of her, but he was also a sage monarch. If she really needed her and her relatives, Emperor Yuanfeng would not refuse the messengers. .
Zhao Qingye frowned a little irritably when he saw that the two of them had been very close together and didn't know what they were talking about.
The words of the fifth prince just now seemed to have stabbed a thorn in her heart, and she felt uncomfortable all over, as if sitting on pins and needles counting the time, for fear that Xiao Heng would suddenly appear.
She used to look forward to seeing Xiao Heng, even if Xiao Heng didn't talk to her, as long as she saw her, she would be happy all day, but today, she was very afraid that Xiao Heng would come.
The palace was brightly lit, singing and dancing were peaceful, Zhao Qingye's eyes were always on Su Yao, and he glanced at her after a while.
The fifth prince and the fifth prince concubine were chatting in a low voice. The seventh prince and the seventh prince concubine did not know what happy things they were talking about. They both laughed, and the seventh prince concubine also reached out and patted the seventh prince gently . The sixth prince smiled and was about to turn around and talk to Zhao Qingye, but saw Zhao Qingye staring at Su Yao.
He frowned, a guess slowly surfaced from the bottom of his heart, making his whole mood sink to the bottom.
And Zhao Qingye still didn't look at him, because at this moment, a **** suddenly announced loudly outside: "The emperor is here!"
Xiao Heng is back! Xiao Heng actually came back!
Zhao Qingye's hand grabbed the cushion under her body. Because of the force, her long fingernails were accidentally broken, and a piercing pain came, and her aching face was deformed.
Empress Dowager Tian was also a little shocked: "Is it really back?"
Xiao Heng had already entered the hall while he was talking. Today, he was wearing a robe with white python arrow sleeves and a jade-colored belt around his waist, which made him look as handsome as a fairy under the moon.
Emperor Yuanfeng was also very happy to see him: "Why did you come back? Didn't you say you were going for half a month?"
Xiao Heng said lightly: "The Ministry of Industry has done a very good job this time. I went to the Shenji Camp to test the new fire gun, and I feel that both the firepower and the range are better than when I was in Yunnan before. After a lot, I just rushed back. There is nothing else to do, and the adoptive father and the others are here. "
said it so nicely, but the translation is, I will come back after I have done the most important thing, and Song Xiangyu will handle the rest.
Emperor Yuanfeng didn't know what to say about his grandson, but seeing that he was so busy, let him go to the table quickly.
Xiao Heng went straight to the seat next to Xiang Xiwei, very conscious.
The Eleventh Princess was still thinking about something on her mind. Seeing Xiao Heng walking towards her, she moved to the side subconsciously.
Just when a seat was vacated in the middle, Xiao Heng sat down straight, his face was not red or his heart was beating.
The fifth prince suddenly burst out laughing.
Everyone looked at him.
The fifth prince didn't care about this, he just smiled and asked the Empress Dowager Tian, "Grandmother, what do you think I'm talking about? I said he would definitely be able to come back. How is it, did the grandson lie to you?"
Empress Dowager Tian couldn't help laughing: "Yes, you are a smart monkey!"
Everyone laughed.
Emperor Yuanfeng didn't know the reason, so he turned his head to look at Concubine Pang Gui, and after hearing Concubine Pang Gui whispering the reason, he also laughed: "This child is cold-hearted, I am really worried about him, I know he knows how to please him. Man, I'm relieved."
