Chapter 305: The Feast (1)
Kunning Palace is one of the three palaces after the inner court, located behind the Jiaotai Palace, its name comes from the original text of the Tao Te Ching: the past to get one, the sky to get a clear, the earth to get a Ning, God to get a spirit, the valley to a surplus, all things to live, Hou Wang to get a and think that the world is right.
This name also represents the status of the queen is relative to the emperor, is the most noble among the women in the world, the emperor is the sky, the queen is the earth, the emperor is Qian, the queen is Kun, and the queen is also the only one in the world. It sits in the north and faces south, faces 9 wide corridors, enters 3 deep rooms, and the yellow glazed tiles are heavy on the top of the palace.
When Yang Feng's family entered the main hall of Kunning Palace, they saw that there were still six or seven gorgeously dressed beauties standing in the main hall, and when they saw Zhu Youxiao and his wife coming in, they bowed down at the same time and said in unison: "The concubines and others meet Your Majesty and the Queen, long live Your Majesty, long live ”
"Let's all be flat!"
Zhu Youxiao waved his hand casually to signal these people to get up, turned his head and smiled at Yang Feng behind him: "Yang Aiqing, I came to introduce you." This is Concubine Liang, Concubine Hui, Concubine Cheng, Concubine Rong, Concubine Chun, and Feng Guiren and Hu Guiren. ”
"Your Majesty...... This ......"
Yang Feng was already a little stunned, in the feudal era, friends could call out their wives and family members to introduce each other to each other, it can already be called a good family, not that the relationship is good enough to a certain extent, and Yang Feng can be sure that Zhu Youxiao will definitely call out all the women in his harem, this favor and trust throughout the history of the Ming Dynasty for more than two hundred years is unprecedented.
Seeing Zhu Youxiao being so close to himself, it is impossible to say that Yang Feng's mood is not excited, this is like a person who takes the whole family to a friend's house to be a guest, and the friend hands over his wife and children to accompany him, it is understandable that such a thing happens in ordinary people's homes, but Zhu Youxiao, as the emperor's family, has made the same actions as ordinary people, and such a grace is too rare.
Yang Feng bowed deeply to Zhu Youxiao, and said movingly: "How can the minister be so virtuous, he can be so valued by His Majesty, the minister is really terrified." ”
Seeing Yang Feng bowing down, Zheng Toniang, Hai Lanzhu, Zhezhe, and Da Yuer, who were following him, also bowed down.
Zhu Youxiao laughed out loud and subdued Yang Feng with his own hands: "Yang Aiqing, don't be like this, I originally said that you were busy with the proofreading in two days later, but the queen insisted on inviting you to the palace for a banquet, and called your family, I thought about it before agreeing, speaking of which, it is all the queen's credit, and it has nothing to do with me." ”
"Oh...... I see. ”
Yang Feng glanced at Empress Zhang Yan in surprise, he didn't expect that he could enter the palace for a banquet today It turned out to be the queen's credit, if this is the case, this woman's political wisdom should definitely not be underestimated. However, he thought about it again, in another time and space, Wei Zhongxian and his old hospitable clan could be said to cover the sky in the palace, but Zhang Yan could fight with them on a par, which was enough to prove her skill and wisdom.
Seeing Yang Feng's eyes, Zhang Yan smiled slightly, she seemed to see through Yang Feng's thoughts, and said with a smile: "Lord Yang is too worried, in fact, this palace heard that Lord Yang not only married the famous Zheng Tuoniang on the Qinhuai River back to the family, but also ran to the grassland with a large army to snatch back the most beautiful pearl of the Horqin tribe. Now, can Lord Yang introduce these women behind you to this palace? ”
"This ...... Of course! ”
Yang Feng didn't expect this queen to be so straightforward, and after coughing lightly, he grabbed Hai Lanzhu's hand and introduced her to the side: "This is Hai Lanzhu, the newly married wife of the minister, and her father is Zaisang, the leader of the Horqin tribe. ”
"Yo ......"
Zhang Yan looked at Hai Lanzhu Rao is she the queen and couldn't help but admire, today's Hai Lanzhu is wearing a white plain Hangzhou long skirt, a green bottom tassel hanging flower skirt, and a light gold mink cicada wing veil. The head is chic like a cloud updo, the skin is like a clotted fat on the hand wearing a cloisonne bracelet, and the feet are wearing blue lotus soft satin shoes, the whole person looks beautiful and vulgar.
Hai Lanzhu's beauty is not divided into men and women, even Zhang Yan couldn't help but be a little surprised, he stepped forward and grabbed Hai Lanzhu's hand and exclaimed: "Sure enough, she is a woman like a sinking fish and a goose, and even the palace is stunned." In this way, this bracelet was given to this palace by His Majesty a few years ago, and I will give it to you today. ”
After speaking, Zhang Yan took off a bracelet as white as jade and crystal clear from her wrist and stuffed it into Hai Lanzhu's hand.
"This ......"
Hai Lanzhu took the bracelet and looked at her husband with some hesitation, Yang Feng couldn't help but laugh after seeing Hai Lanzhu's inquiring gaze, "Take it, of course you have to accept what the queen gave, if you don't accept it, wouldn't it not give your majesty and the queen face." ”
After hearing her husband's words, Hai Lanzhu accepted the bracelet after receiving a blessing from Zhang Yan.
And seeing that Yang Feng said so calmly, Zhang Yan couldn't help but laugh and covered her mouth: "No wonder Your Majesty likes you so much, Lord Yang is really above board, unlike some people who obviously like it but have to pretend to be pretending." ”
Zhu Youxiao also laughed and quipped: "Zitong, you don't know. Last year, when I was a guest at his Jiangdong Gate Thousand Households, this guy was going to ask me for food, but I didn't want to give it to him at that time. ”
"What, there is such a thing?"
Zhang Yan and the concubines beside her looked at each other, all of them couldn't believe it, and finally burst into laughter.
Yang Feng scratched his head and said with some embarrassment: "Your Majesty, the minister was not too poor at that time, and he wanted to get some silver to subsidize the daily expenses of thousands of households, but he didn't ask you later." ”
Zhang Yan laughed so breathlessly that she almost collapsed to the ground, pointing at Yang Feng speechless. By now she finally knew why her husband kept talking about this person, this person was so funny.
"Alright...... Okay, don't laugh, let's introduce you to these people next. ”
Yang Feng was afraid that Zhang Yan would laugh so badly, and then he would be in big trouble, so he quickly pulled Zhezhe, Da Yuer and Zheng Tuniang over and said: "This is Zheng Tuniang, who was originally a girl from an official eunuch's family, but later her father was sold into the Qinglou after being convicted, and Weichen ransomed her last year, as for these two......"
Speaking of this, Yang Feng hesitated for a moment before saying: "This real name is Borzigit Zhezhe, and he is Hai Lanzhu's aunt, and this name is Borzigit Bumubutai, who is Hai Lanzhu's own sister. ”
"When the ......"
The hall that was originally full of laughter immediately stopped, and everyone looked at Yang Feng and the women behind him with incredible eyes.
The teacup in Zhu Youxiao's hand fell to the ground like this, and a high-quality teacup produced by Jingdezhen fell to the ground and fell to pieces. He pointed at Yang Feng and then at Hai Lanzhu, and the three girls were speechless for a while. Even Zhang Yan opened her mouth wide and pointed at Yang Feng, but she didn't know what to do for a while.
In fact, Yang Feng married Zheng Tuoniang, a woman from Qinhuaihe, in the eyes of Zhu Youxiao and others, she was at best a young and romantic woman, and it was nothing. But he packed up and married three aunts and nephews together, and the three aunts and nephews married one husband together, which is too incredible and amazing for everyone who is deeply influenced by Han etiquette.
"This, this, this, this ......" Zhu Youxiao stammered for a long time, and was stunned for a long time, not knowing how to speak.
After seeing everyone's reactions, Yang Feng noticed that the faces of the three daughters of Hai Lanzhu had darkened a little, and he lowered his head, he couldn't help but take a deep breath and took a step forward and said: "Your Majesty, please report to the minister, this is the case, after the minister arrived in Liaodong last year, he ......"
Immediately afterwards, Yang Feng sent him to Liaodong, feeling that the cavalry was insufficient and lacking war horses, so he decided to lead the troops to the prairie to get enough war horses through the means of war.
In the end, he said: "This matter is actually the fault of the ministers, and it has ruined their reputation." If they were left alone, they would surely die. Since the matter was provoked by the minister, then the minister had to be responsible for them, so the minister brought them back to Daming without doing anything. ”
Yang Feng said this for half an hour, and the hall was quiet, only Yang Feng's voice echoed in the hall, including Zhu Youxiao, Zhang Yan and all the concubines were dumbfounded, how could they have heard such a bizarre thing after living in the deep palace for a long time.
When Yang Feng narrated, Hai Lanzhu, Zhezhe and Da Yuer's eyes turned red, and finally after they saw that Yang Feng had taken all the fault on themselves, they couldn't help but shed tears anymore, and the three of them couldn't help but come to Yang Feng and cry behind him.
After a long time, a beautiful woman sitting next to Zhang Yan exclaimed: "It's so terrifying and bizarre, this is even better than what is said in the play." ”
Zhu Youxiao smiled bitterly: "Concubine Liang is right, I have never heard of such a bizarre thing, if it weren't for the three daughters of Hai Lanzhu standing in front of me, and Yang Aiqing said it herself, I would have thought it was made up." ”
Looking at the five people who were almost hugging each other, Zhang Yan couldn't help but sigh: "Your Majesty, although Lord Yang's move is a bit ridiculous, but the concubine thinks that because of this, it proves that Lord Yang is indeed a bright and upright man, and the three aunts and nephews of Hai Lanzhu are not mistaken." ”
