Chapter 1084: Quan and Treat It as a Family Banquet
"Zhen Ji doesn't have to be like this!" With a sweet smile on the corner of her mouth, Tang Ji stepped forward to take Zhen Mi's hand, stared at her eyes as clear as a cold pool, and said softly: "I have heard Zhen Ji's country for a long time, and I still don't believe it to the Japanese princess, but today I saw that it was really the case!" ”
Being held by Tang Ji, Zhen Mi pursed her lips and buried her head in front of her chest, her pretty face was already red.
"Princess Fang Cai heard the sound of the Qiang flute here, and I don't know who played it!" Turning his face to look at the maids who were hanging their hands and bowing their heads, Tang Ji seemed to say to himself: "The Qiang flute is long, and it is quite longing, but there is someone here who has a lovely person in the outer compartment?" ”
"Princess......" The little face was already red to the base of her neck, and Zhen Mi said shyly: "The Qiang flute is played by a cheap concubine!" ”
When she heard the Qiang flute, Tang Ji had already thought that it would be Zhen Mi playing, and the reason why she asked the question was just because she wanted her to say it herself.
"Ahh When Zhen Mi confessed, Tang Ji pretended to be surprised, took her hands, and looked at her carefully from head to toe before saying, "I didn't expect Zhen Ji to have such talent!" A beautiful woman, and such a talented person, Xian Yi Gongzi is really a great blessing! ”
was praised by Tang Ji, Zhen Mi just lowered her head, her pretty face was flushed and she didn't say anything.
"Since Zhen Ji is also proficient in music and rhythm, today this princess will be the master, invite a few princesses to come, and we will drink the grape wine from the Western Regions together, enjoy this Xue'er, how about discussing the rhythm?" Holding Zhen Mi's hand, Tang Ji tilted her head slightly and asked her with a smile.
Zhen Ji is also a smart person in Bingxue, how can she not know that since Tang Ji has already spoken, she categorically can't refuse, and said softly: "But it's up to the princess to decide!" ”
"Come on!" Zhen Mi responded, Tang Ji had a sweet smile on her face, and said to the maid who followed behind: "Go and invite several princesses, just say that this princess is invited!" ”
"No!" A maid was commanded and whispered.
The maid took two steps back, and was just about to turn around when Tang Ji called to her again: "Wait! ”
Hearing Tang Ji tell her to slow down, the maid hurriedly stopped, folded her hands in front of her, and quietly waited for her further instructions.
After a slight sigh, Tang Ji said to the maid: "Go to Wenhou Mansion and invite Princess Anyang!" ”
"No!" After answering again, the maid retreated, went to inform the princesses and invited Diao Chan to go.
"Set up a few tables here and serve some hot food!" Holding Zhen Mi's hand, when he was instructed to go and ask the other princesses and Diao Chan's maids to leave, Tang Ji instructed the rest of the maids behind him: "Light a few braziers and bring the wine from the Western Regions stored in the princess's bedroom." ”
"No!" A group of maids responded, except for the two of them who were still standing behind Tang Ji and waiting, the rest of them moved one after another to arrange the wine and food and the table.
Holding Zhen Mi's hand, Tang Ji raised her face, looked at the snowflakes fluttering in the sky, and said with a faint smile: "It's such a big snowfall, it's been raining for three days, and it hasn't stopped." ”
Standing in front of Tang Ji with his head down, Zhen Mi never dared to raise his head.
After all, Tang Ji is the princess of King Qin, and she is the wife of the knot, and once King Qin decides to ascend the throne in the future, she will be the mother of the Han Dynasty.
In front of Tang Ji, Zhen Mi did not dare to hold it up, and always maintained the due courtesy of a courtier's wife.
After a while, the maids who had gone to set up a low table returned one after another.
The maids set up several low tables in the outer courtyard of the dormitory where Zhen Mi lived, and next to each low table, a copper stove that was not very large was placed.
The coals burning in the copper furnace have just been lit, and the red flames have not yet fully immersed the top coals.
When a group of maids were busy talking about the low table and the copper stove in place, the other maids entered the courtyard with two wine jars in their hands.
Standing beside Tang Ji, one of the maids whispered to her, "Princess, should the wine be warm or cold?" ”
"When the snow falls, I want to eat some warm wine!" On her pretty face, she always had a sweet smile, and after giving instructions to the maid, Tang Ji asked Zhen Mi again, "What does Zhen Ji think?" ”
"The princess is very right!" With her head down, her cheeks were still red, Zhen Mi responded softly.
"How can Zhen Ji be so shy!" Seeing that Zhen Mi's cheeks were always red, Tang Ji smiled and said to her: "This princess is not a man's family, Zhen Ji just let it go!" ”
Tang Ji didn't say this, Zhen Mi's face was already flushed, and when she said this, her cheeks were a little hot with shame.
In the dormitory where Zhen Mi stayed, Tang Ji greeted a group of princesses, and when she also asked people to invite Diao Chan to the banquet, Liu Wei also felt a little bored, and led Wang Liu and Wang Zhen to wander in the back garden.
Passing near the palace where the princesses lived, Liu Wei was about to go to the lake to see if there was any freezing on the lake in the snow, but by chance he saw a familiar figure in front of him.
The figure, dressed in a large red brocade jacket similar to Tang Ji's, was walking towards the place where the dormitory was located, accompanied by four maids.
From a distance, someone who came also saw Liu Bian, she was stunned for a moment, and finally walked up to Liu Bian.
When Liu Wei approached, when he looked at her, Liu Wei was stunned for a moment, and then a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"When did Princess Anyang get pregnant?" It was Diao Chan who came over to greet Liu Bian, and before she could get close to salute, Liu Bian had already greeted her with a smile.
Wearing a brocade jacket, the thick jacket also failed to cover the bulge of Diao's lower abdomen.
was directly asked by Liu Wei when she was pregnant, Diao Chan's cheeks turned slightly red.
However, she only blushed a little, and immediately returned to normal, smiled sweetly and first blessed Liu Wei, and then said: "It's been a few months, but I haven't come to see Your Highness recently, and Your Highness doesn't know!" ”
"This Fengxian didn't even tell the king!" Looking away from Diao Chan's bulging belly, Liu Wei said to her: "Since this king knows, he should prepare some gifts for the princess and children, and send them to the house tomorrow!" ”
"Thank you, Your Highness!" After blessing Liu Fang again, Diao Chan stood aside, although he didn't say that he wanted to leave, he didn't say anything more.
"Princess, where are you going?" Diao Chan hadn't been to the palace for a long time, and now it was snowing heavily and she was pregnant, so she still rushed over, Liu Wei was puzzled in his heart and asked her.
"It's Princess Tang who ordered the concubine to come!" Lowering his head, Diao Chan answered Liu Wei's question and didn't say anything more.
Feeling that there was nothing to say between him and Diao Chan, Liu Wei nodded at her with a smile and said, "Since it is Tang Ji who invites her, don't delay the princess, go quickly!" ”
"The concubine retires!" After owing to Liu Wei, Diao Chan took two steps back, and then turned around and walked towards the dormitory where Zhen Mi was staying.
Seeing that Diao Chan did not go to Tang Ji's bedroom, but walked to the place where Zhen Mi was placed, Liu Wei couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart, and he didn't understand what Tang Ji was doing for a while.
Diao Chan was the last one invited by Tang Ji to come to Zhen Mi's dormitory.
As soon as she entered the front yard of the dormitory, there were already maids who reported to the princesses and Zhen Mi who had already sat down.
Knowing that Diao Chan was coming, the princesses didn't get up, but just turned their heads to look at Diao Chan who had just entered the courtyard, but Zhen Mi stood up, lowered her head, and waited to greet her.
Holding his stomach, Diao Chan entered the front yard, first blessed Tang Ji and the others, and then asked Zhen Mi with a smile: "This is Mrs. Xianyi, who has heard the beauty of the country for a long time, and when I see it today, it really lives up to its name." Even I, a woman, am overjoyed when I see my wife's beauty! ”
As soon as Diao Chan saw Zhen Mi, he said such a thing, and Zhen Mi's cheeks immediately turned red with shame and lowered her face.
Entering the courtyard, when Diao Chan spoke, the eyes of Tang Ji and the others fell on his stomach.
Tao Huanniang pays the most attention to these things at home on weekdays, but when she enters the palace, she is far away from the folk villages, and she rarely has the opportunity to participate in these happy events in other families.
Finding that Diao Chan's stomach was quite high, she stood up, walked to Diao Chan with a smile, gently pressed one palm to Diao Chan's lower abdomen, and asked softly, "Princess Anyang, how many months?" ”
"It's been six or seven months!" Lowering his head and stroking his lower abdomen, Diao Chan's face was filled with a happy smile, and he said to Tao Huanniang: "Wenhou always said to the sun, I have no male and half female, and now that he is pregnant, he is happy!" ”
"Congratulations to Princess Anyang!" Removing the hand that was caressing Diao Chan's lower abdomen, Tao Huanniang said with a smile: "When the child is born, I will definitely invite this princess to eat a cup of happy wine!" ”
"Of course!" With a happy smile on his face, Diao Chan answered.
"Princess Anyang hasn't been to the palace for a long time, if it weren't for the princess inviting the princess to come today, there would be no way to know that she is pregnant!" Tang Ji, who was sitting at the head of the low table in the courtyard, turned his head to look at Diao Chan, and said with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth: "Zhen Ji played a good Qiang flute, I wanted to invite Princess Cai and Princess Anyang to play a song together, but now it seems that it is not available." I'll just drink! ”
As he spoke, Tang Ji raised his hands, pressed twice towards everyone and said, "Everyone is invited to the table, it is difficult to hold a family banquet on weekdays in this palace, and today it will be a family banquet!" ”
Several princesses thanked Tang Ji one after another, and Zhen Mi, who was standing, also thanked her, but she did not sit down immediately, but waited until Diao Chan entered the table before she sat down.
"Zhen Ji is still used to living here?" After everyone was seated, Tang Ji turned her head to look at Zhen Mi and asked her.
"Thanks to the princesses, blessed to Princess Anyang!" Bowing slightly, Zhen Mi said in a soft voice: "It's still customary to live here, but it's just in the palace, adjacent to the residence of the princesses, and the concubines live quite uncomfortable......"
