Chapter 190 The First Year Banquet at Prince Fu’s Mansion
Chapter 190 The First Year Banquet at Prince Fu’s Mansion
When Prince Bao passed by Xia Zixing, he met her eyes and said,
He nodded and said, "Princess Xiu,"
Xia Zixing hurriedly took two steps forward and called out respectfully: "Little Uncle Wang,"
"Um,"
Some of the young people present had never seen Prince Bao, but due to their status, they did not dare to ask more questions and could only look at him respectfully.
King Xiu invited Prince Bao to sit down on the main seat.
Princess Fu brought the two children over and showed them to him.
When Prince Bao saw the two children, he took out two gifts one by one and said gently: "Little guys, they look so good-looking."
Prince Fu smiled and said, "Thank you, Uncle Wang."
……
Rong Zheng had been standing beside Prince Bao, with a gentle smile on his face, looking at the people who came forward in a decent manner.
I heard that this is Prince Bao's second daughter. She is already twenty years old and has not yet been married.
Xia Zixing pulled Princess Xuan beside her. She had been living in the capital and should know Prince Bao and his family very well.
"Yuzhu, have you seen Rong Zheng before?"
Princess Xuan nodded, "I met her when I was very young. Later, her family moved away from the city and we never saw her again. Today is the first time I saw her."
A dignified prince suddenly moved out of the capital and went to Licheng.
Licheng is still a prosperous place, and Prince Bao and his family should be very prosperous living there.
Who is out of town?
In the previous Shu family, there was Governor Gu and a branch of the Fang family.
The imperial concubine invited Fang Jiao from the Fang family, who planned to become the crown prince's concubine.
And the mysterious man in the Prince's Mansion.
"Princess Xiu really deserves her reputation,"
Xia Zixing sat with her eyes blank, thinking about things, and didn't hear anyone talking about her.
King Xiu came over to pull her and asked with worry in his eyes: "What's wrong with you?"
Xia Zixing came back to her senses, saw Rong Xiu, and then looked at Prince Bao.
A gentle smile.
When the people from the Anping Marquis Mansion arrived, Xia Zixing leaned over and got close.
"Auntie, why didn't you come earlier?"
Mrs. Anpinghou smiled fondly, "I don't worry about Yun'er. Please spend more time with her at home."
Nie Yun has a big belly and it is inconvenient to go out now, so he did not come to the banquet today.
Xia Zixing nodded, thinking about finding time to go back to Anping Marquis Mansion to see everyone.
When the banquet was about to start, I heard someone at the door calling the prince and princess.
The status of the prince is different, especially the current prince.
King Fu went to the door to welcome the prince as he came in.
He smiled and said: "Brother, you are late,"
"I'm sorry, fifth brother, there's something delaying me at home," the prince also said with a smile.
The Crown Princess also came with her, and Xia Zixing noticed that she looked much better this time since the last time she saw Chen Jun.
With a decent smile on his face, he looked at everyone.
After the banquet started, Xia Zixing did not sit in the front hall.
Instead, he pulled Liu Qing and ordered his servants to call Rong Yao Rongyu, Princess Xuan, and the Crown Princess together, and found a quiet courtyard to sit down.
"How about calling Rong Zheng over," Rong Yao suggested.
"Of course," Liu Qing immediately ordered someone to invite Rong Wen over.
All in all, they are all royal women.
Rong Zheng was surprised. She was sitting with other noble ladies. She didn't expect that the fifth sister-in-law would send someone to invite her over.
She thought something was wrong, but it turned out that she was asked to sit down and eat together.
Rong Zheng greeted everyone one by one, and then sat down in an empty seat.
Only Rong Yao was familiar with her,
"Zheng'er, we were worried that you wouldn't be comfortable sitting outside, so we called you in so that we sisters can talk more comfortably."
Rong Zheng smiled and thanked everyone. He nodded to the Crown Princess.
Princess Xuan Kang Yuzhu also smiled and said: "Zheng'er, we haven't seen each other for many years. We met when we were children."
Rong Zheng nodded, her face slightly red, "Yes, I didn't expect you to become Princess Xuan,"
At that time, everyone thought she would be the princess.
"Yes, but Prince Xuan and I are very good," Princess Xuan said calmly.
Everyone laughed at her.
Xia Zixing ate the whole time and didn't say anything.
"Second sister-in-law, are you hungry?" Rong Yu asked Xia Zixing,
Xia Zixing nodded and swallowed the meat in his mouth, "I'm hungry. I came here early in the morning to help. It's like you guys came here in a hurry for food."
"Yes, my sister came here early in the morning to help me. She wanted to eat more."
We had a harmonious meal, chatting and laughing while eating, having fun and cooking at the same time.
Rong Zheng can also say a few words, but they are all for fun.
"I have lived in Licheng for so many years, and I have seen a lot of people in Licheng who are living in dissipation and dissipation. Even worse than those in the capital." Rong Zheng said quietly.
"Then why haven't you found yourself a husband yet?" Princess Xuan asked.
Rong Zheng's expression calmed, "What good is a husband? Men are selfish. They are not as comfortable as us sisters."
Xia Zixing looked sideways, this Rong Zheng was a bit interesting. Look down on men.
"That's right, if you don't have a good man, you won't marry. It's not like you can't survive." Xia Zixing smiled.
Rong Yao also nodded, "Yes, when looking for a husband, you need to find a husband you like and treat yourself well, just like your second brother, third brother, and fifth brother."
Rong Yao was originally arranged by the imperial concubine to marry a scumbag. Fortunately, I got out.
It's pretty good now.
Liu Qing's maid Luyu came over with Zhuangzhuang in her arms, "Princess, the prince misses you and has been calling you empress."
Liu Qing put down her chopsticks, took the cloth to wipe her hands, and then took her son, "My mother wants me to hold her."
"Can we have something to eat now," Xia Zixing asked.
"Okay, now let's eat eggs, porridge, cakes and goat's milk. Have some of everything."
Rong Yao brought a piece of hibiscus cake in front of her to Liu Qing, "You try giving him some of this,"
"The teeth have grown, and you can eat meat and bones." Xia Zixing said with a smile.
Zhuang Zhuang has indeed grown teeth, two small incisors on the top and bottom.
Prince Zhuangzhuang was carried to Liu Qing, while Princess Niuniu was carried to Prince Fu.
Because Niuniu hadn't seen King Fu for a long time, she kept calling her daddy.
King Fu was drinking in the front hall and toasting everyone. Many officials came to toast King Fu. King Fu was happy and drank two more glasses.
"My king's girl is here, come and give her a hug."
Everyone looked at him with envy, especially the prince.
King Xiu is not envious, he also has a daughter,
Thinking of this, King Xiu wanted to leave the banquet and go to the mansion next door to see his two children.
In Xiu Wang Mansion, the Supreme Emperor and Xiaoyao Hou also started drinking, teasing their children while drinking.
Rong Tianqi opened his eyes wide. He looked at the two old grandfathers curiously, looking left and right.
"This kid, maybe he wants to drink," Haha, the Supreme Emperor said with a smile.
Xiaoyao Hou looked at the child and smiled and said, "You are too young to drink. When you grow up, your great-grandfather will reward you with wine."
The Supreme Emperor picked up a piece of braised pork and put it in his mouth, "Your granddaughter is pregnant again."
Xiaoyao nodded, "I know, she told me that it's good to be pregnant,"
"That's good. I haven't had a child in the palace for a long time."
"Didn't you say that there is another noble person who is also pregnant?" Xiaoyao Hou asked,
Cai Guiren is pregnant, but Yun Guiren is in the cold palace.
The Secretary of the Ministry of Finance's hair has turned gray due to worry. He has always wanted to acquit his daughter, but has never had the chance.
A few days ago, the prince found him and said he could help him.
