The Book of Raising Children by Houmen

Chapter 380
It is an ordinary small family, if they accept a noble concubine, although they don't need to treat guests lavishly, they still have to invite acquaintances to have a wedding banquet together.What's more, Chunxiu is a court lady next to the Empress Dowager. As soon as she left the palace, she entered the Prince Regent's Mansion as a noble concubine. Just for the Empress Dowager's sake, she would more or less manage two tables.So Zhao Jing received a wedding invitation from the palace.

Xu Si'an didn't care much about these things, but he also knew that Chunxiu was Zhao Jing's good sister in the palace, so he nodded and said, "Then you should go back early and be careful about everything."

The two talked for a while, and it was getting late, Zhao Jing couldn't bear it now that she was pregnant, so she went back to her room to sleep.

After breakfast the next morning, Zhao Jing took Xu Xian and Qi Xinrui to the palace, Xu Si'an personally sent them to the gate of the palace, and saw Mrs. Pingxi Hou Shi.Last time she came to Princess Xiaoyi's mansion alone, but today there is a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl beside her, she is an inch shorter than Xu Xian, and she is very thin.

Xu Si'an personally helped Zhao Jing to get off the carriage, and Zhao Jing also saw Mrs. Shi. Although the two of them had no new or old enmity, but now that they meet each other on a narrow road, they should nod their heads as a greeting.

Zhao Jing nodded towards Mrs. Shi, but Mrs. Shi over there sneered and said, "Mrs. Marquis of Wu'an is really lucky, but she just went to the palace for a banquet, and even the Lord Marquis delivered it to the door in person. .”

Zhao Jing didn't feel uncomfortable with such sour words, but Xu Si'an frowned when she heard it, and said coldly: "So, Mrs. Ping Xihou's life is really not very good, why didn't Ping Xihou personally send her off?" are you coming?"

"You..." Mrs. Shi didn't expect that Zhao Jing didn't speak, but Wu An Hou gave her a face, and her cheeks flushed immediately.Just at this moment, the little girl following her respectfully saluted Zhao Jing, but Mrs. Shi gave her a hard look and said, "Hurry up and go in, what are you doing here!"

The little girl was taken aback when she heard this, and hurriedly followed her to the gate of the palace.

Zhao Jing sent Xu Si'an away, and also went to the palace gate. When she reached the gate of Shenwu Gate, she saw Fu Manduo was already waiting there.He still ordered someone to prepare a soft sedan chair and was waiting at the side.

When Mrs. Shi saw her, she went up to greet her with a smile and said, "Eunuch Fu is so kind, he even prepared a sedan chair, so I can go to Fengyi Palace by myself."

Fu Man saw Zhao Jing approaching from a distance, so he didn't have time to greet Mrs. Shi, so he said casually: "It's best if Madam can walk by herself, there are already people from Yongshou Palace waiting to guide Madam here. "After he finished speaking, he greeted Zhao Jing. He didn't pay attention to Mrs. Shi at all. He stepped forward to support Zhao Jing and said, "Auntie is here. The emperor went to Yongshou Palace after the morning court today. He also said that he wanted to see her." See the cousin of the Marquis of Wu'an."

The little emperor called Zhao Jing "auntie", and now that Zhao Jing is Xu Xian's aunt, it's okay to call Xu Xian "cousin".Xu Xian's cheeks turned slightly red when she heard this. She is the current emperor, and she actually said that she is his cousin.

Zhao Jing knew that Xu Xian was thin-skinned, so she just reached out and patted the back of her hand, comforting her: "Don't be afraid, the emperor is not much older than you."

After seeing this situation, Mrs. Shi knew that the sedan chair was not prepared for her, she blushed with anger, but she didn't dare to get angry in front of the maids of Yongshou Palace, and had to beat up the little girl who was with her. After sternly cursing, he followed the maid to Yongshou Palace.

Zhao Jing didn't want to sit in the sedan chair, the sedan chair shook violently, even though she hadn't eaten anything in the morning, she felt dizzy due to the shaking, and felt sick even more.Just thinking that this was Zhou Xu's wish, he got into the sedan chair anyway.

It's just that all the female relatives are walking, and it's somewhat awkward for her to go there in a sedan chair.

Fortunately, Yongshou Palace is not too far away. Zhao Jing came down in a hurry when the sedan chair reached the palace road at the gate. At this time, there were many maids going to meet the palace gate. I am a little bit too big.

Zhao Jing got off the sedan chair at the corner, and led Xu Xian and Qi Xinrui along the palace road all the way, but she didn't notice that someone behind her was looking at her intently, and turned to face Princess Xiaoyi next to her. He said: "Mother, what is the origin of that Mrs. Marquis of Wu'an? Why does the emperor like her so much? Could it be that if she doesn't leave the palace, will the emperor really make her a concubine?"

Princess Xiaoyi looked at Zhao Jing's back and was also slightly startled, but said lightly: "What do you know, a man's mind, you can't figure it out at your age, I just tell you, you are as gentle as her." , the emperor must like you."

Lu Xinyue frowned slightly with her thin willow eyebrows, and said in a small temper: "I don't want to be so hypocritical!"
