The favorite wife of the black-bellied prime minister

Chapter 13 Planting the Roots
Half affirmation and half criticism, both kindness and power.

Bai Lijing nodded lightly: "Yes, father, please remember."

Emperor Jing Yuan stroked his beard in satisfaction, and said, "All take your seats. Courtesy officer, you can invite the theater troupe to come on stage." He waved to the Seventh Prince again: "Xu'er, come here."

The Seventh Prince wiped away his tears and walked over with the five finger marks on his cheeks. Emperor Jing Yuan hugged him and sat beside him, and coaxed him very lovingly: "Don't cry, I will point out your favorite one later. "Havoc in Heaven", okay?"

Baili Mingxu held his mouth shut and threw himself into Emperor Jing Yuan's arms, tears of grievance, a warm scene of fatherly kindness and filial piety.Anyone present can see that Emperor Jing Yuan loves the Seventh Prince. Those reprimands just now are just words. In such a comparison, Princess Jing has fallen a lot.

Because Emperor Jingyuan liked to listen to operas, famous local opera troupes poured into Shengjing one after another. A high stage was set up on the back eaves of the Taiji Hall. Everyone listened to the sound of thumping and thumping, and watched the well-dressed opera actors yiyi on the stage. Yea sing.

Concubine Li and Empress Situ sat on both sides of the dragon chair. Concubine Li took a handkerchief from time to time to pass fresh fruit to the seventh prince. laughing out loud.

Empress Situ sat very straight, staring directly at the stage in front of her, and the pastry and fruit plate in front of her hardly moved.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs would play tricks and set up the seats for the two princesses and concubines on the left and right sides, with Emperor Jing Yuan and the two empresses separated in the middle, so even if the two princesses wanted to compete, they would not be able to compete.

According to the rules at the banquet at the back door, the son-in-law should toast three glasses of wine to Emperor Jing Yuan to show the affection of father and son.In the middle of the feast, Han Ye, dressed in a beautiful white dress, got up and walked to the front of the hall, holding the white porcelain wine cup on the tray of the ceremony officer beside him.

It's been a long time since concubine Jing came forward, and the ceremony officer went to urge her, but saw Princess Jing walking from the seat holding concubine Jing's hand, she was a little stunned, but she didn't dare to say anything.

Bai Lijing supported Mo Wen, stood beside Han Ye, and said with a smile, "Father, the son-in-law is not in good health. I will drink this wine for him."

Han Ye's hand holding the white porcelain cup trembled slightly, and some of the wine in the cup spilled out. The ceremonial officer had sharp eyes, and hurriedly filled it up for him, and said in a low voice, "It's unlucky for you to spill wine! Hold on tight!"

The Tai Chi Hall was resplendent and resplendent. In front of the hall, three people stood in parallel, Han Ye was on the left, Baili Jing was on the right, and Mo Wen was separated in the middle.Bai Lijing took the wine glass, raised it with a smile on her face, and said first: "The first glass, I wish the Daxing Society a healthy and healthy society, and all directions come to court."

Head up and drink.

"The second cup, I wish the father, the queen and the queen a long life, and the descendants of Yinze."

"The third cup..."

"Princess Jing, this is the strong wine that the Beijun Mansion paid tribute to. If you drink any more, you will get drunk!" Seeing that Baili Jing's face was slightly red, the ceremony officer could not help persuading.

Bai Lijing acted as if she had never heard of it, she held the wine glass, turned her head to the left, and said with a smile like a flower: "The third glass, I wish... wish me and my son-in-law a long-lasting love, never... never, no, separation, separation..."

He raised his head and drank it in one gulp, but his body fell backwards hastily.Mo Wen stretched out his long arms, and hurriedly embraced her in his arms. Her arms were wrapped around his neck, and her sleeves were lifted up, revealing the red coral beads on Xue Hao's wrists. She smiled charmingly, and her voice was melodious. : "I'm fine, husband, I'm fine..."

The ceremony official hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Princess Jing is drunk."

Emperor Jing Yuan sighed helplessly: "The wine that the Beijun Mansion paid tribute to is called 'Wangyou Zui'. It is extremely spicy and strong. I don't remember anything after a few cups. It has always been used to consider my Daxing son-in-law's drinking capacity. Jing girl has been drinking since she was a child. Can drink, drink three cups in a row, it seems that she has to sleep until tomorrow. Somebody, help Princess Jing go down and rest."

He glanced at Mo Wen again, and added: "Jing's son-in-law is weak, so go with Jing'er too."

Mo Wen bowed to Emperor Jing Yuan, and with his long arms, he hugged the person in his arms. Everyone saw that although his face was pale, he walked very smoothly while holding his wife in his arms. The eunuch cautiously followed behind him, walked out of the gate of the Taiji Palace, and headed straight for Baili Jing's bedroom before she got married.

Han Ye remained standing in the same place, but his right foot moved half a step away from the original position, and no one noticed.

He is tall and tall, with a handsome face, a beautiful white robe embroidered with golden silk thread, a green jade pendant hanging around his waist, and his black hair is simply tied up with a white jade hairpin. Dragon and phoenix in the world.

Mu Lian once asked Baili Jing: "Jing Xiaobai, the third senior brother is not as good-looking as you? Then, where is the senior brother?"

Bai Lijing replied without hesitation: "Of course the eldest brother is the most beautiful! Well, it can only be regarded as the second!"

The senior brother is Han Ye.

"Luo Ma, your wine...haven't been drunk yet." The etiquette officer reminded in a low voice.

Only his white clothes were left in front of the palace, Han Ye raised his head, looked at the high-ranking Emperor Jing Yuan with his starry eyes, and said, "Princess Jing has already said what I want to say, I respect my father."

After finishing speaking, he raised his head and drank the wine in the glass, drank three glasses in a row, and looked as usual.

Emperor Jing Yuan smiled approvingly: "Luo Ma is really good at drinking!"

Han Ye's deep starry eyes were full of light, he pursed his lips and smiled lightly, and replied humbly: "Thank you for your praise."

Seeing that Baili Jing was not present, Emperor Jing Yuan asked generously, "How is the injury on Luo Ma's hand? Has it recovered?"

Han Ye held the white jade cup in his right hand, but kept his injured left hand hidden in his sleeve. He said with a light smile, "I'm fine, thank you for your concern."

Emperor Jing Yuan stroked his beard and nodded with satisfaction: "My Princess Ding'an will be handed over to you in the future, so let's not mention the past. That girl Jing'er is ignorant and made you and Luo'er suffer. You have to take care of yourself these days." , and report to the Ministry of Rites after the injury is healed."

The hierarchy in the palace is strict, and the status of the prince and princess is determined by the status of their mother. When they were born, the status of their mother will determine the honor they will receive.

Unlike Bailijing who was canonized as "Princess Rongchang" just after the first full moon, ordinary concubine princesses would only be conferred the title on the eve of their wedding, and the ostentation of the wedding ceremony was also slightly inferior to that of the first-born princess.When Baililuo was born, Emperor Jingyuan was just a prince, and Concubine Li was just a small concubine. Therefore, even if Emperor Jingyuan came to the throne later, she climbed to the position of noble concubine, and Baililuo, who was born as a concubine of the palace, was born in the palace. The status in the middle school is still not high, and she was named "Princess Ding'an" only before her wedding.

"Father, don't worry, Han Ye will take good care of Princess Luo." Han Ye replied.

Emperor Jing Yuan sighed: "Oh, it's a pity that King Jinyang is far away in Beijun, so he can't see his bride. I haven't seen King Jinyang for a long time, and I really miss the days of drinking 'Wangyouzui' with him. "

Han Ye smiled: "In my father's letters, I often think of the old days, and I often lament the fleeting time, and I am grateful for the grace of my father."
