Chapter 336 337: The Empress Dowager puts on airs
Seeing that the time is almost up, Song Yunzhao has to go to the Shouci Palace for a banquet, and she has to keep an eye on this banquet with Concubine Shu, so she won't be able to relax.
"Why don't the child stay in Yaohua Palace first?" Song Yunzhao looked at his son and said, "When the banquet is about to start, bring him there."
Feng Xi didn't quite understand what the concubine mother said, but when he saw the nanny coming in to hug him, he hugged his father's neck tightly and didn't let go.
Song Yunzhao has been fighting wits and bravery with the Queen Mother in the past few months, and he has fought with the Liushang Bureau. It is inevitable that he cannot take good care of the children. Therefore, when Feng Yi is free, he will let Zhang Maoquan take Feng Yi to the Taiji Hall.
Now the relationship between father and son is very harmonious, but she has unknowingly stood in the position of strict mother, obviously she only wants to be a loving mother.
Moreover, Song Yunzhao discovered one thing. Although Feng Xi is young and can't talk, he is very good at looking at his eyes and expressing his needs. I don't know if it is a bad thing or a good thing.
Feng Yi hugged Feng Bi and got up, "You are busy with your work, I will take him to the Tai Chi Hall, and I will take him there during the luncheon."
The emperor must show up at the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet.
Song Yunzhao looked at Feng Yi who was pointing his **** at her, and couldn't laugh or cry for a while, so he could only let Feng Yi take the child away.
Probably because Feng Yi himself didn't get love from his parents when he was a child, so he was extra tolerant and loving towards Feng Xi, as if he had to make up for his regrets on his son.
Song Yunzhao was also a little worried, because he was afraid that Feng Yi would turn Feng Xi into a dude. After this period of work, she still has to take it with her.
"Master, it's time to go." Xiangxue came over and reminded.
Song Yunzhao got up, took Xiangxue, Shizhu and Anshun towards Shouci Palace.
The Shouci Palace is bustling, the queen mother has not yet come out, the concubines have come to pay their respects, and they are sitting in the hall chatting and laughing.
Lu Zhixue was sitting next to Han Jinyi, and Feng Yunjin was so busy co-organizing the banquet this time, she saw her wandering around the room, leaving only a shadow for them.
This is the Empress Dowager's first birthday after returning to the palace, so the Shouci Palace attaches great importance to it. Today, before dawn, the servants sweep the gate, the bluestone boards are washed clean, the flowers, plants and trees in the courtyard are trimmed neatly, and people shuttle back and forth The palace maids are brightly dressed, with smiles on their eyebrows, and they look refreshing.
Song Yunzhao was quite surprised when he came in. This behavior was quite different from the Shouci Palace in the past. It seems that the Queen Mother has suffered a lot in her hands these days. She and Concubine Shu set off as an arrogant and domineering villain.
interesting.
Before Song Yunzhao stepped into the main hall of Shouci Palace, Concubine Shu arrived, called her to stop, and the two entered the hall together.
When all the people in the hall saw the two coming in, they all got up and saluted.
"I have met Concubine Shu, Concubine Ming."
"Get up." Concubine Shu waved her hand casually, "Today is the Empress Dowager's birthday, and it is a great achievement for all of you to happily accompany the Empress Dowager."
Song Yunzhao took a look at Concubine Shu. There were too many hits against the south wall, which can indeed improve IQ. Now Concubine Shu also knows how to speak beautifully on the scene.
Song Yunzhao immediately changed his mind and decided to follow Concubine Shu to be a wooden beauty.
Concubine Shu pulled Song Yunzhao to sit down, and then heaved a sigh of relief, "Why hasn't Concubine Wan arrived yet?"
Song Yunzhao didn't know, but thinking about Concubine Wan's temperament, he spoke carefully, "Maybe I got stuck."
On such a festive day as the Queen Mother's birthday, if Concubine Wan fell ill, the Queen Mother might be upset again.
Song Yunzhao thought for a while after listening to Concubine Shu's words, and said, "Probably not. If you really feel unwell, you should talk to us."
Everyone should also cover each other, after all, the common enemy now is the Queen Mother.
"Right."
Just as Concubine Wan arrived, everyone got up to salute again. After Concubine Wan came in, she sat down on the other side of Yun Zhao, "When I was about to go out, I accidentally wet my clothes, so I had to change them again. I was delayed for some time, hurry up." If you catch up slowly, you will not miss the time."
It turned out to be like this.
Concubine Shu heaved a sigh of relief, looked at Concubine Wan and said bluntly: "The servants around you should also be beating and beating. They are so careless. Fortunately, there is no mistake, otherwise you will be the one who is unlucky."
Concubine Wan felt a little uncomfortable, and all the servants around her had been with her since she entered the palace. What happened today was really a coincidence.
Song Yunzhao saw that the expression on Concubine Wan's face was not very happy, so he calmed down the situation slowly, "It's trivial for us to go out, and the palace servants may be careless, Sister Shu Concubine is worried about Sister Wan Concubine, just turn around and knock a few words. "
What more Concubine Shu wanted to say, Yun Shang came over in a hurry, "Master, the Six Shang Bureau sent a message that a teacup belonging to the Four Gentlemen accidentally dropped a teacup, what should I do?"
Concubine Shu was taken aback, "Did you fall?"
"Yes, they said that all the utensils were taken out of the warehouse yesterday to be cleaned and dried, and sent to the Shouci Palace early this morning. Who knew that a servant accidentally tripped over during the transportation, and a teacup rolled onto the floor. The ground is broken." Yun Chang's voice was low, today is the Queen Mother's birthday, and a teacup was broken first, if the Queen Mother knew about it, she would definitely be angry.
Song Yunzhao and Concubine Wan were closer, and both of them heard it in their ears.
Concubine Wan is better. She is basically not involved in the Queen Mother's birthday, and the pressure is not great. But if things really get serious, she will inevitably be blamed for ineffective supervision.
Concubine Wan frowned slightly, and looked sideways at Song Yunzhao, "Why is it so unlucky?"
Song Yunzhao didn't know whether it was a coincidence or intentional, so he heard Concubine Shu say: "I remember that there are spares in the warehouse, so I take them out first for emergency. If the Queen Mother asks, you can say that the Liushang Bureau will send it to you." The new colors are more auspicious."
It's just a teacup, she said it's broken and replaced, but it's not a good idea, if the Queen Mother makes an excuse, it will not end well for everyone.
Yun Shang hurried out, Concubine Shu's expression was still a little bad, but she didn't want to be seen by others, so she squeezed out a smile, and said to Yun Zhao and the others, "I'll settle the score with Liushang Bureau later."
She suspected that Liu Shangju did it on purpose.
Song Yunzhao didn't know the truth, so it was hard to make a statement, so he said, "Just ask later, I guess it's mostly accidents."
It is best to be an accident, and everyone can pass this hurdle smoothly.
That is, the servant who committed the crime may not escape punishment.
After a quarter of an hour, Yunshang spoke back again, saying that the matter has been settled, and the Liushang Bureau also said that they will give an explanation.
The three of them breathed a sigh of relief, and Concubine Wan said again: "The wives outside should be here, right?"
Yun Chang nodded hurriedly, "When the Empress Dowager is promoted, it's time to come in and see her."
Song Yunzhao thought to himself that today the queen mother really wants to put on airs and restore her prestige.
