The first daughter is poisonous, the lord goes to bed obediently

Chapter 111 Ancestral Temple, Defeat Each One

Luanjia's whole body is wrapped in pink satin, and in front of it, a large piece of crepe hangs down, vaguely seeing the majesty of the Queen Mother.

I saw the Empress Dowager sitting in the Luanjia, surrounded by several palace people, coming to the Taimiao.

At this time, the crowd exclaimed, "Look, who will be sitting behind the Queen Mother Luanjia?"

After he said this, the rest of the people turned their heads to look at it one after another, and saw a soft sedan chair wrapped in moonlight brocade behind the Queen Mother's Luanjia.

Behind the curtain of the soft sedan chair, a row of crystal-like bead curtains was lowered. They discussed curiously to see which woman would be lucky enough to accompany the empress dowager to pray for the people.

"Have you heard that the queen mother canonized any lady as princess?"

"No, but I heard that she seems to value the young lady of Duke Feng's mansion very much."

"It's Miss Feng, no wonder, I heard that Prince Yu intends to marry her. Could it be that the Queen Mother didn't make her the princess?"

……

Amidst the discussion among the crowd, Feng Xihe was helped out of the car by the palace people, and his rippling almond eyes looked towards the majestic Taimiao.

The main structure of the Taimiao is a three-entry temple. The mythical beasts on the cornices and corners are intertwined. The flying dragon holds its head high and looks like it is about to fly. The yellow and red colors embody the authority that belongs to the royal family.The entire palace is majestic, majestic and eye-catching, and every plant and tree shows the royal bullying.

Standing beside Feng Xihe, Qian Yun looked at the many people behind him, and then at the magnificent Taimiao, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion in a low voice: "Miss, the queen mother is so kind to you."

Feng Xihe shook his head secretly, and said softly, "The queen mother asked me to come with her, not because she was really kind to me, but because she wanted to use me to suppress the Zhao family."

The queen mother hated being cheated the most in her life. The Zhao family and Yun Changyi teamed up to keep her in the dark. Of course she would give them a credit.

After saying that, Feng Xihe followed the queen mother, surrounded by the palace people, and walked slowly towards the altar.

This time back to Taimiao, the Empress Dowager specially held a blessing ceremony for last year's snow disaster before her [-]th birthday, presided over by Ruan Zhaoming, Minister of Rites.

In front of the altar of the Taimiao Temple, various kinds of melons, fruits, wine, and cattle and sheep to be slaughtered covered with red silk cloth have been placed. In a bronze incense burner with two people hugging each other, there is a scent of aloe incense.

On the surrounding bodhi trees, the temple has been surrounded by golden bells strung together. Below the bells, there is a sandalwood plaque hanging, which reads the wishes of the current emperor and queen mother to all people, as well as prayers to Ningguo.

Countless bells radiate golden light under the sun, making the center of the rows of red lines go down to form a just right arc.

As soon as the wind blows, there will be a "jingling" sound, and the crisp bells bring hope to the people.

It is said that after the blessing ceremony is over, the members of the royal family will go out and distribute the bells to the people, so that they can all feel the love of the emperor and the empress dowager.

Before the arrival of the Queen Mother, all the princes, grandsons, and emperors had arrived. Ruan Zhaoming entertained them attentively and prepared various matters.

"See the queen mother." As soon as the queen mother arrived, he immediately greeted her respectfully and bowed. However, when he saw Feng Xihe beside the queen mother, his face turned green, and then he secretly rushed to Feng Xi He made a look of "Don't you want to embarrass your father".

Feng Xihe ignored his gaze, looked forward, and saw a group of princes and courtiers, as well as the queen and four concubines, standing in two rows in front of the altar.

Almost all the members of the Gu family in Beijing have arrived, except for Gu Shiyin. Gu Shiyin has never paid attention to Emperor Changde and the Queen Mother, and his absence now has given them a big blow .However, everyone dared not speak out.

Emperor Changde did not show the slightest embarrassment. He was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe. After Ruan Zhaoming welcomed the queen mother into the Taimiao, he led all the officials and invited the queen mother to sit in front of the altar.

Of course, the accompanying Feng Xihe also followed the Queen Mother to the altar step by step.

The dress she is wearing today was made by Feng Qingyue for several days and nights. On the rouge-colored embroidered lake-colored twelve-piece Xiang skirt, there are several twine branch lotuses hidden in it. As she walks, twine The lotus branches will show up faintly.

Because Feng Qingyue added lotus powder to the silk thread, the twig lotus on the skirt exudes a faint fragrance, as if the real twig lotus bloomed under her footsteps.

Some courtiers and aristocratic daughters began to envy Feng Xihe, and hoped that the one who could attract attention today was himself.

The Zhao family members who were present felt as if their faces were burning hot after seeing it.

Concubine Zhao has cloudy temples and peach cheeks, with exquisite makeup. She is wearing a fishtail skirt made of snow-rolled veil, with several real pearls on the embroidery, and green pistil slanting branches in her hair. She is originally bright and charming. Deportment and grace.

However, looking at Feng Xihe's beauty, she couldn't help but see a sharp light in her eyes. Fortunately, Hua Nu beside her quietly reminded her, so she withdrew her expression and lowered her eyes to caress the pet in her arms, a Persian cat.

This Persian cat was brought back for her by her younger brother Zhao Chu when he went to a small barbarian country, and it was deeply loved by her, and only she had the privilege to bring her pet to the Taimiao.

In fact, a few days ago, her impression in Emperor Changde's heart plummeted. Fortunately, the young eunuch Hua Nu who came to her side gave her a lot of ideas, and made a kind of incense stickers for her to stick on her navel. She is radiant.

Then, Emperor Changde's love for her increased day by day, and it seemed that she had returned to the past.

Feng Xihe looked in the direction of Hua Nu silently, thinking in his heart that Concubine Zhao needs to solve it as soon as possible, otherwise, even if Concubine Zhao does not suspect Hua Nu, it does not mean that other members of the Zhao family will not doubt.

Gu Jinnian stood not far from Feng Xihe. After Feng Xihe stood still, he only glanced at him lightly, then sneered disdainfully: "Even the princess can't enjoy the treatment, you are a courtier's daughter, With such a bad reputation and no title on weekdays, what qualifications do you have to accompany the queen mother to pray for blessings?"

Feng Xihe's expression did not change. After listening, she sighed and replied: "What qualifications does Your Highness the Third Prince have to say such a thing? Every piece of soil and tile in this Ning country was killed by everyone who fought bloody battles on the battlefield." Soldiers are guarding, and every courtier is working hard to build."

"I am the daughter of a courtier, and I have the honor to accompany the queen mother to pray for blessings. It is the queen mother's affirmation of the great achievements of many courtiers, and it proves to all people in the world that today's emperor and the queen mother are people who are as clear as a mirror, and will not forget every minister of the country. Your hard work. Third prince, you are really chilling all the ministers by saying such words now!"

Gu Jinnian was choked, paused for a moment, and then snorted coldly, "Feng Xihe, you really have no sense of shame at all, you really can put any high hat on your head!"

Feng Xihe said with a smile: "Your Highness, the third prince, congratulates you. On such an important day of praying, you don't think about making profits for the people. Instead, you have the skill to scold me, a little girl, in public. I really admire you!"

After all, Gu Jinnian was at a loss for words for a while, but he didn't know how to answer, but he was still not reconciled to just watching Feng Xi and Zhuo Zhuo Guang shine like this, becoming the focus of everyone's heated discussions, with the potential to replace Yun Changyi.

"Third brother, what Xihe said is reasonable." At this time, Gu Jincheng, who was dressed in a moon-white brocade robe, pushed the wheelchair and came to Gu Jinnian slowly, and gently persuaded him: "Today is indeed an important day. You and Xihe If there is any grievance, you can find another time to settle it slowly."

"Second brother, why do you always speak for her? Are you fascinated by this ugly monster like Uncle Yu?" Gu Jinnian's eyes were burning, but fortunately, his voice was not loud, only those who were close to him could hear it.

However, everyone who heard it sighed involuntarily, feeling worthless for Gu Jincheng, and his good intentions were treated as a dog's lungs. This third prince may not be able to become a great weapon.

Gu Jinnian wanted to continue talking, but when he looked left and right, he felt that the faces of everyone looking at him were a little weird, so he realized his gaffe, and swallowed the next words forcefully.

"Thank you, Second Brother, for your teaching." After he finished speaking grimly, he threw up his sleeves and ignored Gu Jincheng.

Feng Xihe saw a lot of Gu Jincheng's drama, and sneered in his heart, why think about his younger brother, Gu Jincheng must wish that Gu Jinnian lost his temper and let Gu Jinnian betray his relatives!
"Xihe, you look beautiful in this dress today." After a while, Gu Jincheng suddenly praised Feng Xihe softly.

Feng Xi and Lue turned their eyes in a daze, lowered their heads flattered, and replied softly: "His Royal Highness the Second Prince is absurd."

There was a look of grievance on her face, but she didn't say a word about the reason for the grievance.

Gu Jincheng carefully observed her reaction, and recalled that he had received news a few days ago that the gown that Zhao Chu gave her was embroidered with flowers of the other side, and later, because the new concubine's room in Feng's mansion ruined the gown, she was in a hurry. Time was at a loss.

Coincidentally, that concubine's room was also the one from the Zhao family.

Judging by Feng Xihe's aggrieved appearance, it is probably because of the ruined dress.

Gu Jincheng's hands tightened little by little, and a chill gradually overflowed in his heart. The Zhao family actually used the secrets in his heart to deal with the Feng family for their own self-interest.

He remembered that it wasn't that the Zhao family counted him in.Very well, if the Zhao family dares to scheme against him, then he will not be polite, you know, he is not just a backup of the Zhao family.

Feng Xi and Mo Ran looked away, and after a slight smile appeared on their lips, they looked towards the altar.

If Gu Jincheng and the Zhao family are firmly tied together, she will be very difficult to deal with, and breaking them one by one is the most appropriate way.

After the estimated time for a stick of incense, the blessing ceremony officially began. Under the guidance of Ruan Zhaoming, a group of priests wearing colorful feathers on their hair and various paints on their faces, and wearing silver fish skin clothes read blessings in Sanskrit. Start a sacrifice dance.

After a sacrificial dance, the leading priest touched a handful of grains and threw them on the ground. Then, he sprinkled the water out of the water-filled bamboo tube.
