Chapter 91
The dim sum is made into the shape of several flowers, which looks very nice, but I don't know how it tastes.

Yun Zhao was looking at these snacks, but the princes and concubines were looking at her.

She didn't meet these princes and concubines many times.

The queen doesn't like to go out, and the princes and concubines often come out to the palace to see the queen, and they come out after a while.

They either go to the palaces of their respective princes' mothers and concubines, and most of the time, they will not meet Yun Zhao.

"As you know, the Crown Princess, there is a princess from Chu State who came to celebrate her birthday this time.

"I don't know which good boy from our Beixiao she will take a fancy to."

"Does it need to be said? Among the men in Beixiao, the most outstanding one is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

……

A few people asked Yun Zhao what he thought of it after talking to each other.

Yun Zhao: "..."

How can she see it?She sits and watches.

But the princes and concubines just looked over and didn't look away, so Yun Zhao could only smile, "I don't know what the princess of Chu is thinking, or what His Highness is thinking."

"The princes and concubines are very clever. I don't have such skills, so I won't speculate in private."

A few people's faces suddenly turned dark.

Who is this run on?Does it mean that their mouths are broken and they say things they shouldn't say?
The complexions of several people became even worse, but there were many people around, and they were not easy to get angry.

He just said, "Prince Princess is very generous."

Yun Zhao pretended not to hear, and stared at the snacks after the few people stopped talking, picking out the best-looking one with quick eyes and hands.

After entering the dim sum, her expression also stiffened.

It was so sweet, she pretended not to notice, put down the snack, and quickly poured a cup of strong tea.

None of the princes came here yet, Yun Zhao guessed that they came with the emperor.

If it's about the same time or late, it's too rude.

She thought about it, took an empty plate, picked up a few snacks like just now, and put them on the side.

This naturally won the praise of the ladies who have been paying attention to this side.

Yun Zhao accepted these compliments without hesitation, and then lowered his head in a shy look.

Before the emperor came, Xiao Changyin came here.

He greeted the queen first, and then sat down.

Several princes did come with the emperor.

Everyone looked at the princes following the emperor, and at the prince who came alone, and couldn't help thinking seriously.

There is a saying, family ugliness should not be publicized.

Even if His Majesty is dissatisfied with the Crown Prince, it is enough to reprimand him in private, why should it be made public.

Especially at this juncture, he kept the prince cold and brought the other princes with him, as if he was telling everyone that he liked all the sons except the prince.

Everyone felt strange and inappropriate in their hearts, but they didn't show it on the surface.

The birthday banquet began, the queen said the same polite words as in previous years, and then the concubines in the harem came one by one to say congratulatory words and present birthday gifts.

Concubine Hui didn't come over, she used the excuse of being unwell, saying that she was ill, and didn't want others to get sick.

Concubine Hui used to be very good-looking, so many of these wives had good friends with her, but now they walked around and saw no one, so they guessed that she might not be able to come.

For a while, there was actually some embarrassment.

Concubine Zheng was the most beautiful in the front and back palaces, but it was Concubine Hui who really held the power in her hands.

But now, Concubine Zheng is not as popular as before, and Concubine Hui has no power at all.

The princes all sat with the concubine, only Xiao Changluo was special, he hadn't married the concubine yet, so he sat next to the concubine Zheng at this time.

"Did you hear, today is your father's birthday, if you make him happy, it will be easy to enter the military department." Concubine Zheng urged.

If it had been placed before, Concubine Zheng would not be in such a hurry.

But now she is not so favored, and what she said doesn't hold much weight in the emperor's eyes, which makes her not in a hurry.

Also because of her disfavor, the Zheng family began to become unimportant in the eyes of the emperor.

For the current plan, the only way is to make Zijin stand out in front of His Majesty, and she will be more expensive than mother.

Xiao Changluo rubbed his ears, "Concubine Mother, it's not that my son doesn't want to go, but you also know that Father is in a bad mood recently, if I happen to offend him in the past, I will even do errands in the Ministry of Rites, let alone the Ministry of War." No."

In fact, Xiao Changluo didn't even want an errand in the Ministry of Rites, but... he knew the current situation of the concubine mother, if his son was too useless, the concubine mother would have a hard time.

Concubine Zheng sighed, seeing that no one was looking at her, she couldn't help leaning closer to Xiao Changluo's ear, "Why don't you find a more reliable monk and Taoist priest, and go to the palace to do a ritual or something."

Xiao Changluo was drinking, so he couldn't help being choked, "Ahem, cough, what did you say, concubine mother?"

He couldn't believe it, didn't his mother and concubine always disbelieve this?
Usually, she didn't even glance at the Buddha statues placed in the room, only when her father passed by, she would pretend to kneel down and pay respects.

Concubine Zheng pinched him secretly, "You child, don't draw people here."

"Your father these days, don't you find it strange? How did he treat me before? How does he treat me now?"

"I suspect that some little goblin cast a spell on him, otherwise he wouldn't be so unfeeling to me."

Xiao Changluo: "..."

He wanted to tell the truth, but he was afraid of being punched.

He changed his method, and said in a slightly tactful way, "Concubine Mother, if any concubine does this, Emperor Father should always favor her."

"But have you seen which concubine's father stayed overnight?"

Concubine Zheng was actually suspicious of the queen at first, because of the eldest prince's affairs.

No matter how much the First Prince has committed treason, he should not be punished so severely. Nowadays, there are not a few people who feel sorry for the First Prince because of his situation.

But the queen didn't see anything unusual, and His Majesty still didn't show good looks to the queen in the past.

If the concubine next to me...

That's even more impossible.

The concubines didn't see His Majesty take a second look. Today they favor this one, and tomorrow they favor another one.

A bowl of water is quite flat.

Concubine Zheng almost tore the handkerchief in her hand, "What's going on? Your Majesty was never so sentimental before."

Xiao Changluo: "..."

How could he know, and he is a son, it doesn't seem good to discuss this matter.

"The partition wall has ears, let alone here."

"Mother, don't talk about this."

Concubine Zheng nodded and agreed, "That's true. After the meeting is over, you and Concubine Mu will go back to Fuyinglou, and we will discuss it carefully."

Xiao Changluo had a painful look on his face, he didn't want to discuss why his father suddenly favored so many concubines.

"You're not young anymore. You haven't found a suitable candidate before, so you're procrastinating."
