Hairpin Phoenix

   Chapter 211 Annoyed (1)

   A pair of newlyweds stepped into the main hall under the attention of all eyes.

  Li Hao, dressed in a bright yellow prince's uniform, is handsome and tall and full of energy. The bride Meng Yunluo beside her had a faint glitter on her face, her eyes wandered, her shyness revealed the charm of a first-time woman.

   Concubine Su looked at her son and daughter-in-law, and the joy in her heart almost overflowed from her chest.

   Finally got through all the hardships.

   Li Hao and Meng Yunluo came forward together, and first kowtowed to the Queen Mother Zhao and asked An to serve tea.

   Empress Dowager Zhao sighed in her heart, intending to block Lu Mingyu. She was very kind to Meng Yunluo, her new grandson-in-law. She didn't set any rules at all. She took the tea with a smile, took a sip, and praised Meng Yunluo for her beauty and filial piety.

The    reward was also much richer than the reward to Lu Mingyu that day.

   As expected of the empress dowager Zhao, who is well-known for her eccentric eyes, she does not change the method she uses to respond to others.

The    method is simple but effective.

   Concubine Su was beaming, while Concubine Meng Gui and Queen Qiao were each unhappy.

   Concubine Meng is better. The first prince concubine entered the door a few years ago. Lu Mingyu has only been in the door for more than a month, and the hardships and harshness he received on the day of serving tea are vivid in his mind. In stark contrast to today.

   Queen Qiao held back her anger and glanced at Emperor Yongjia.

  Emperor Yongjia, like all men in the world, pretended to be deaf and dumb when his mother was mean to his daughter-in-law, and he didn't know the right to anger Queen Qiao.

  Meng Yunluo knelt down and offered tea. Emperor Yongjia smiled and took the tea cup, took a sip, and rewarded the greeting.

   Next, it is time for the bride to offer tea to Queen Qiao.

   "The daughter-in-law kowtows to the mother and offers tea."

   The daughter-in-law of a concubine, when she sees her first-mother, is also called a first-mother queen. Before getting married, Meng Yunluo was repeatedly taught by Mrs. Guangping Hou to point out the rules of the palace. Today, there is no mistake in serving tea.

   Queen Qiao was unhappy, but she did not have the habit of angering others. At most, her tone was colder: "No courtesy, get up!" She took the tea without making any trouble.

   Meng Yunluo breathed a sigh of relief, and when she got up, her legs were a little sore and weak. A hand stretched out to support her arm, and the new husband-in-law's low and concerned voice sounded in his ear: "Be careful, stand firm."

   Meng Yunluo's mind flashed an untimely image of last night's eager confusion and shyness, her cheeks blushed.

   Newlyweds, it is inevitable to be intimate in front of others.

   Everyone laughed, whether it was good intentions or not.

  Meng Yunluo blushed with a pretty face, and then greeted her own aunt, Concubine Meng Gui.

Concubine Meng was disgusted by Concubine Su's mother and son, but she was very close to her niece. She laughed and joked: "Seeing your little husband and wife are so affectionate and affectionate, I am also very happy. I will come to the palace to greet you in the future, don't forget. Go to Yanxi Palace for a walk."

   Meng Yunluo's heart filled with warmth, and she responded with a smile.

  …

   Concubine Su looked at her and felt unhappy in her heart.

   In the previous life, Meng Yunluo and Meng Guifei walked closely, but she was cold and estranged with Queen Qiao. She tried her best to marry Meng Yunluo for her son, but she didn't want to be picked by Concubine Meng Guifei in vain.

When Meng Yunluo bowed to Concubine Su, Concubine Su was extremely affectionate, holding Meng Yunluo's hand and smiling: "You and Ah Hao are like a pair made in heaven. Live your life by being filial to me."

   Meng Yunluo smiled slightly, and glanced at Queen Qiao subconsciously.

   Concubine Su said that, in fact, she has already accumulated more. It doesn't matter what you say in private. When you say filial piety in front of the Empress Zhonggong, doesn't that mean you don't take the Empress seriously?

   Sure enough, Queen Qiao's expression darkened, and there was a hint of coolness in her eyes.

   Li Hao continued with a smile: "What the concubine said is true. In the future, Yunluo and I will definitely be filial to the grandmother, father and mother, and mother and concubine."

  Yes, this order is correct.

   Concubine Su also realized that she had made a blunder at this time, and hurriedly smiled and wrote: "Yes, yes, look at me, when I am happy, I get carried away, and my words are not comprehensive."

Queen Qiao said with a faint smile: "The third prince is overjoyed to be married, and Concubine Su's heart is rejoicing, and it is only natural. However, no matter how happy you are, you can't get carried away. Occasionally speaking, this palace will not mind. , it's hard for this palace to think about it without thinking about it."

  As a queen, she has the right to accuse and have the right to be in charge of the six palaces to teach concubines.

  Emperor Yongjia would not refute Queen Qiao's face and open his mouth to defend Concubine Su.

   Concubine Su stood up to accompany the ceremony with an embarrassed look on her face: "The concubine made a slip of the tongue for a while, and has no intention of offending the empress. The empress is magnanimous, please forgive the concubine this time."

   Queen Qiao twitched the corners of her mouth, but did not make a sound.

   Concubine Su had no choice but to continue to maintain the posture of apology. It's just a normal day. Today is the day when my daughter-in-law comes in to serve tea. What face does she have in front of her daughter-in-law as a mother-in-law?

  Li Hao pursed the corners of his mouth.

  Meng Yunluo felt only ashamed and humiliated in her heart, she quickly lowered her head, her face was hot, and even the back of her ears was hot.

   Queen Qiao did not make things difficult for her. But it embarrassed her more than being mean to her.

   Concubine Su... Aside from that face that can see people, there is really no way to speak and act. What kind of identity do you have in your heart? Don't jump out when she's serving tea. Now it's better, Su Fei is so shameless, and her newly-in-law daughter-in-law is also shameless!

   After a while, Queen Qiao said: "Okay, let's get back! Today is the day when Mrs. Meng serves tea. Let Mrs. Meng recognize uncles, brothers, sisters and aunts. You sit down!"

   Concubine Su thanked the Queen dryly for her grace, got up and sat back. There was already a layer of fine beads of sweat on his forehead, and he looked quite embarrassed.

  …

   Lu Mingyu watched this scene with great interest.

   In her previous life, she came into the door to offer tea, and Concubine Su also came and was reprimanded by Queen Qiao. Her daughter-in-law immediately stepped forward to support Concubine Su.

   Meng Yunluo is not so powerful, and she has no intention of supporting Concubine Su. Concubine Su would have to feel aggrieved and aggrieved.

  Li Hao is not in a good mood either. He didn't want to show his face, pretended nothing had happened, and led his new wife and his peers to greet him one by one.

   soon came to Lu Mingyu.

  Li Hao's black eyes swept across Lu Mingyu's face, and then smiled at Meng Yunluo: "Yunluo, this is the second sister-in-law."

   Meng Yunluo's face was still red, but it was hard to say whether it was because she was shy or embarrassed: "Second sister-in-law."

  It is much more casual to see courtesy among peers.

  Lu Mingyu laughed and called out "three younger brothers and sisters", and it was all done.

  After serving tea, it is customary to go to the Tai Temple to offer sacrifices to ancestors. The noon palace banquet is also set in the Jiaofang Hall. After the palace banquet was over, Lu Mingyu and Li Jing left the palace and returned to their residence.

  Li Hao led the bride to the Yihua Palace of his mother, Concubine Su.

  Meng Yunluo saw Concubine Su's style of "pear blossoms crying softly with rain" for the first time in her life.
