The Alluring Concubine: The Eldest Miss

Chapter 282 The Prosperous Elegance (1)

"Okay, aunt, don't be so polite to your family. With so many people, you salute one by one. Can you come here?" Feng Qiwu laughed and pulled An Ruo inside, "Every time you come, you will definitely see You stay here, how about it, does Auntie still like the gift that Han Xue brought back?"

"The empress is very satisfied with the gift that the eldest lady sends, of course she likes it." An Ruo gently patted Feng Qiwu's hand, "Not only the empress, but also the concubine De and Concubine Shu also like it." It's terrible, knowing that the eldest lady is coming today, I was so happy that I couldn't close my mouth from ear to ear all morning!"

"I didn't ask them. I've figured out their preferences long ago. Naturally, the gifts are what they like. I'm asking Aunt Anruo!" Feng Qiwu rubbed the center of his brows helplessly, "Every time Bring you something, if it’s good you say you like it, if it’s not good you say you like it, I really wonder if one day I will give you an ugly big knife and you will also say you like it.”

"Pfft!" Aunt An Ruo laughed out of Feng Qiwu's teasing, "Miss, you can really joke, I am a person in the deep palace, I can't leave the palace once in a few years, what do you want that sword for, you and the prince are in the army!" With so many friends, it would be much more useful to send them away than me.”

"That's right. As a gift, at least it has to be useful, otherwise it will be trash!" Feng Qiwu took An Ruo's arm and said in agreement, rolling his eyes around, and saw Several big trees in front of the main hall were replaced with Xiangfei bamboos, and there were some brightly colored flowers in the yard, and I was very happy for Feng Aoxue for a while.

When she reached the entrance of the main hall, An Ruo gently pulled out her arms from Feng Qiwu's embrace and stood by the door, "Please come inside, the ladies have been waiting for a long time."

If I had known that An Ruo would come to this set, and she had stayed in the palace for most of her life, these etiquettes had already been engraved in her bones and blood, Feng Qiwu didn't force An Ruo to change according to her own wishes, and went straight in." Auntie, I'm here to see you!"

"Hey, our great general who protects the country is back!" Concubine Ning Shu smiled and stood up.

Concubine De sat on the same spot without moving, Feng Aoxue was the same as Concubine De, she didn't move at all, Feng Qiwu walked over, bent down and cupped her fists, "General Feng Qiwu, the minister who protects the country, visited the empress and concubine Shu. Empress Dowager!"

After Feng Qiwu came like this, the next few also imitated the example, "I have seen the empress, the concubine Shu, the concubine de concubine!"

The three of Feng Aoxue were all stunned, and after realizing it, Feng Aoxue said angrily: "What are you all doing when you have nothing to do?"

"This is terrible. As soon as Qiwu came back, even the duke wanted to play with her." Concubine De's eyes fell on Feng Aotian, "Think it's been four months since the duke came back. But Yue has never stepped into the harem before, so you really have to thank Qiwu, Sister Aoxue, if she hadn't come back, when would you be able to see your elder brother?"

"Sister Defei said yes, but let's not talk about each other. These two brats live in the palace and we haven't seen each other for more than a month. They are all heartless." Ning Shu The concubine scolded and turned her back to sit opposite Feng Aoxue, not looking at the people behind.

Feng Qiwu looked at Shen Youliehuo from the corner of his eyes, and the corners of his eyes were almost cramped when he winked at him, but the man looked at her with a dazed expression and didn't move. Suddenly, Shen Youliehuo rushed forward as if he couldn't stand still. Standing directly behind Concubine Ning Shu after a while, Feng Qiwu secretly gave a thumbs up to Shen Youliehan, who successfully kicked someone, and the latter blinked slyly and triumphantly in return.

Shen Youliehuo was betrayed by his teammates, and he scolded the person who kicked him bloody in his heart, but he stumbled and said: "Mother, concubine, that, my son is here to see you."

"Look at me?" Concubine Ning Shu's tone was cold, without turning her head, "Watch me or watch the excitement?"

"Of course it depends on you, mother concubine, what is there to see in the harem, mother concubine, you really know how to joke." It was obviously a joke between mother and son, but it was said dryly by Shen Youliehuo. Covering his face directly from behind, "Such a stupid person, I really doubt how he has lived in the East Palace for so many years?"

"Born in sorrow and dying in peace, we have solved all the troubles. He is living a peaceful life and his brain has degenerated." Shen Youliehan pushed Shen Youlie and said, "Go and let your brain change." change."

Concubine De sat a little farther away from them, so although Shen Youlietu was pushed out, she was not as helpless as Shen Youliehuo, and she still had time to complain, "I'm going, are you too stupid? "

"You are not as good as hell, whoever goes to hell, go!" Feng Qiwu said as a matter of course, and successfully sold both Shen Youliehuo and Shen Youlietu. It's been a month, and you haven't even visited your aunt, it's really inappropriate, go and comfort your sister, hurry up!"

Feng Qiwu said that he wanted to go around behind Feng Aotian and push him, but Feng Aotian grabbed his arm, "After cheating teammates, you still want to cheat your father?"

"No, Daddy, I'm your daughter, how could I cheat you, how could you think of me like this?!" Feng Qiwu pouted aggrievedly, his eyes were about to shed tears.

Shen Youliehan hugged her forehead and shoulders, "Duke, the queen mother is your younger sister. As an elder brother, shouldn't it be natural for her to comfort her sister?"

"Okay, you don't have to think of ways to evade each other, I don't think it's that scary." Feng Aoxue glared at the few people angrily, and An Ruo said, "Lunch is almost ready, arrange it as soon as possible. Arrange it, don't wait for the time."

An Ruoying bowed, dignified and generous, "Don't worry, empress, the servants have already made arrangements, and they will be delivered to the imperial dining room as soon as they are ready. Everyone's favorite food is prepared, and the eldest lady will not be hungry. "

Feng Aoxue nodded reassuringly, "Of course I can rest assured that you are doing business, there is no need to wait here, you go find Han Xue and Luo Mei, and relax."

"Thank you empress, my servant will leave."

After An Ruo stepped back, they were the only ones in the whole hall, and they were still a family, so naturally they didn't have so many worries. Feng Qiwu dragged Shen Youliehan to Feng Aoxue and sat down next to Feng Aoxue, "Auntie, how many hundred are you here?" There won't be so many people this year, will it be more lively once we come?"

Concubine Ning Shu smiled and shook her head when she heard the words, "You really think too much. When the queen mother was still there, the court was not stable. In order to help your majesty stabilize the court, our empress will do various things every month. The flower fair invites those ladies who are married to the imperial court to come to participate. When the flower fair is not held, the married ladies of some status will often come to pay homage to the queen to seek the interests and stability of their husbands in the imperial court. This Lingkun Palace is still It never stopped.”

"What I'm talking about is that if it wasn't for your aunt Xijing, who doesn't like to mediate with others, and canceled the daily morning and evening appointments for concubines, this Lingkun Palace would be considered noisy, not to mention lively."

Concubine De set aside the tea sets on the table one by one, and poured tea for everyone, "Didn't you talk less in the morning, drink some water first, to moisten your mouth."

"You can drink tea, but you don't need to moisten your mouth. If we still need to moisten your throat with what we said, I think those officials in the court can drink up a well for them!" Feng Qiwu said without moistening his mouth. Throat, but drank two cups of tea in a row.

Concubine Ning Shu was delighted to see it, "This is a snow-capped mountain and cloud that is worth a thousand gold. You are so awesome. Sister Aoxue doesn't feel sorry for her. I feel heartbroken just looking at it!"

"So, it's better to moisten the throat with clean water. Tea is for tasting, not drinking. Aunt Defei made a mistake. I was misled!"

Feng Qiwu was powerless to argue three points, Shen Youliehan had long been used to it, but the brothers Shen Youliehuo and Feng Aotian, the father, could only shake their heads helplessly, Shen Youliehuo patted Concubine Ning Shu's hand comfortingly, "Mother Concubine, don't hope to talk about Qiwu, I guess no one can talk about her mouth except the third emperor."

"So she is your future sister-in-law, isn't this a strong alliance?" Concubine De smiled and teased Feng Qiwu.

Feng Aoxue listened to everyone chatting and laughing, and saw Hanxue walking in with a few maids carrying trays, and lightly tapped on the table, "Okay, don't make trouble, the food is here, ready to eat, how many of you are together?" Morning, I'm afraid the breakfast isn't very delicious, so I just happen to eat more here, and the palace banquet in the evening is only focused on drinking and eating, where there is still food to eat, eat more, so as to save myself from drinking at night."

"Didn't Uncle Emperor say he would come, why don't we wait for him?" Feng Qiwu looked at a row of maids carrying trays, subconsciously sniffed, remembering that Chengqian Palace was still surrounded by a group of officials Only then did Shen Youjiayan awaken the reason seduced by delicious food.

As soon as Feng Qiwu finished speaking, Shen Youjiayan's voice rang out, "Hahaha, girl Xiwu remembers me!"

"See Your Majesty!" The voices of the guards and maids saluting at the gate were also heard by everyone.

The three brothers Shen Youliehuo and Concubine Shu all stood up and saluted Shen Youjiayan who entered the door together, "See Your Majesty!"

"Okay, okay, there are no outsiders, so don't be polite, take a seat!" Shen Youjiayan waved his hand and walked skillfully to the position facing the door.

The object of the salute was gone, and there was no need for the crowd to continue in a stalemate. They turned around and took their seats obediently. Shen Youjiayan was at the main seat. Separation left and right, others are more casual.

Concubine Ning Shu watched everyone take their seats, and teased Shen Youjiayan with a smile, "Your Majesty, it's better to come early than coincidentally. Han Xue just prepared the meal, and you came. The meal in Lingkun Palace today is not ordinary. !"

"It can be seen that the sum of my imperial meals for a few days is not so rich." Shen Youjiayan swept all the meals on the table, "It's so rich, don't it be specially prepared to welcome Qiwu girl and Han'er, so, The queen is too eccentric!"

"Your Majesty, it's not very good to say that. I heard that today's morning court almost became a transition scene for this girl, Qiwu. If you indulge her like this, aren't you afraid that she will piss off your old officials?"

Hearing this, Feng Aoxue cast a sideways glance at Shen Youjiayan in disbelief, her tone was calm and composed, and her mouth was a killer.

Shen Youjiayan was speechless when asked, and was completely stunned. Feng Qiwu filled a bowl of soup and put it in front of Shen Youjiayan, and then went to serve Feng Aoxue soup, "Don't blame me if you want to have fun. Thing, those old guys who only eat empty pay and don’t do anything, if I am really mad at you, Uncle Emperor might be having fun somewhere!”

"You girl, what kind of nonsense are you talking about? It's nothing more than talking nonsense in the hall, why are you so careless in front of your aunts!" Feng Aotian reprimanded Feng Qiwu with feigned anger.

Feng Qiwu pursed his lips, and acted like a spoiled child impatiently, "Daddy, don't talk about things in court at the dinner table. Keep mentioning those people, what a disappointment, it really affects people's appetite!"

"You girl!" Feng Aotian was stared at by Feng Qiwu, Shen Youlie shook his head with a smile, and brought the soup to Feng Qiwu, "Don't talk too much, Hanfeng said you came out in the morning I didn’t eat when I was there, so I’ll have something to eat first.”

"Oh, good!" Feng Qiwu obediently took the bowl and drank the soup, and never hated anyone again.

Shen Youlie was amused to watch, he filled the rice and started it immediately, stuffed a mouthful of rice into his mouth, and seemed to feel that he was panicking if he didn't say anything, he drank a mouthful of soup and rinsed his mouth before raising his head, "Look, I've said it long ago, our brothers and sisters are so talkative, it's only the Third Emperor's brother who is dumb."

"Sister-in-law?" It's not a joke that women are naturally gossipy. Concubine Ning Shu didn't show any special interest after Shen Youlie said so much. Only these two words successfully attracted her attention "Hearing your name, the marriage has already been settled?"

Speaking of this, these people became more and more excited than each other. Shen Youlietu held down Shen Youliehuo, and said excitedly: "The Duke has agreed to marry Xiwu to the third emperor's younger brother in the early court, and the third emperor's younger brother has just asked Hanfeng to write Send the letter to Master Wu Yazi, personally choose an auspicious day for the two of them to get married as soon as possible, and they are already engaged, so it's not too early for the second prince to call his brother and sister."

"Really!" Concubine De exclaimed, "So, we are going to hold an unprecedented grand wedding soon?"

"It is indeed a great happy event, not counting those military exploits, but just counting our own family. I remember that the last happy event in the palace was the marriage of Nan Wang and Nan Wang Concubine. It has been 18 years now. Now we have to rely on Qi Wu and Han'er's marriage is going to be quite lively!"

As soon as Concubine Shu heard about Feng Qiwu and Shen Youliehan's marriage, she was overjoyed, her mind was spinning quickly, and she even figured out the procedures and steps of the wedding banquet.

The dining table became lively all of a sudden, Shen Youlietu held De Concubine's hand and stretched out his head to ask Feng Aoxue, "Mother, who will organize the wedding between the third emperor and Xiwu, the second emperor and I will help Bar?"

"Yes, mother, I used to go to other people's wedding banquets to drink and drink, and it was over after a few pleasantries. Finally, we were able to hold a happy event on our own. If there is a need for us, just say so."

Hearing this, Feng Aoxue scolded, "Nonsense, there is no way to hold a wedding and let an unmarried man of the same age help. The two of you are so easy to join in the fun, and find a wife as soon as possible. Wouldn't it be better to have fun yourself!"

"That's right, Sister Aoxue, if you don't tell me, I'd almost forget about it. Up to now, these two brats have had several wives and concubines in the palace, but they haven't found us a regular wife. The hall is also stable, so you might as well take the opportunity of the palace banquet in the evening to make a good selection, and when Han'er and Qiwu's marriage is over, let them get married as soon as possible!"
