On the third day of the wedding, Ci'en Palace held a banquet, and invited the royal family to the court, which also meant that several princes and concubines recognized their relatives. Li Yuhua and Mu Anzhi still came here early and had breakfast in Ci'en Palace. Soon, the prince and his wife and the second prince and his wife also arrived.
It was rumored that Empress Lu brought all the concubines to pay tribute to Empress Lan.
Li Yuhua spit out a grape skin, put it on the begonia table next to her hand, wiped her palms with a handkerchief, stood up slowly, and looked at the door, and saw a beautiful woman wearing a nine-tailed phoenix crown and a gorgeous phoenix robe walking in with her concubines. If the beauty of Mrs. Yong'an Hou was shining and fierce, then the beauty of this woman is the best portrayal of the extremely soft and charming self-bearing. That extreme softness is the first time Li Yuhua, who had a grudge against Queen Lu, couldn't help but feel a little pity at the first sight.
Empress Lu greeted Empress Dowager Lan's blessings, and the concubines behind her bowed together. Empress Dowager Lan waved her hand, "No need to be polite, sit down."
Empress Lu was at the lower left end of Empress Dowager Lan. Empress Dowager Lan said a few words and sent the remaining concubines to retreat. The eldest princess Jiayue and the second princess Jiaxiang sat down on the lower heads of Li Yuhua and the second princess. Feeling Princess Jiaxiang's sarcastic attention, Li Yuhua gave Princess Jiayue's pale face and slighted heads. Princess Jiayue's biological mother, Empress Hui, has been lingering in sick beds. The princess spent most of her time serving Empress Hui.
Princess Jiayue also smiled at Li Yuhua.
Queen Lu's eyes fell on Li Yuhua like Chunshui, and her voice was as gentle as willow catkins, "Is this the third wife? She is a delicate child."
Li Yuhua stood up and gave a blessing to Empress Lu. His etiquette was perfect and impeccable, "I have met the Queen."
"Good child, no need to be polite." Empress Lu waved her hand and signaled that Li Yuhua's sitting down was just the same as that of Empress Dowager Lan, with gentle eyes and said to Empress Dowager Lan, "This child is so nice."
Empress Dowager Lan smiled, "I am very sensible, and I like you when I see you. I said Ah Shen has a blessing in his wife and marry such a good wife to be filial to me."
Queen Lu nodded and said to Li Yuhua affectionately, "When will you have time to go to my place? Let's talk. I have prepared a lot of good things for you."
"I will definitely go if I have time. I have missed the Empress for a long time."
Princess Jiaxiang said, "In the past, when I came to the emperor's grandmother, I always sat in front. Now that we have a sister-in-law, we have to be in the back row as our granddaughters."
Queen Mother Lan smiled, "I love you too, come here to sit here for the emperor and grandmother."
Princess Jiaxiang smiled and went up to sit on the couch with Empress Dowager Lan. Empress Dowager Lan asked her that she had been better these days. It sounded like Princess Jiaxiang was not feeling well and was taking medicine.
Compared with Princess Jiaxiang, who is talking a lot, Princess Jiayue is much quieter.
Princess Fengyang arrived with several royal concubines. At a time, Emperor Mu Xuan and his relatives also arrived.
Li Yuhua also met many relatives. The oldest one was the prince of the King of Chu, who was in his fifties, and had a family of children and grandchildren. The youngest one was the prince of the King of Xiangyang, who was fifteen years old and still studied in the palace.
Princess Fengyang came with several royal princes and princes. At a time, Emperor Mu Xuan and his relatives also arrived. This time, the banquet was a case of two people, such as some princesses who had not yet married were a case of one person.
The food was natural and delicate. Mu Anzhi stripped off the shrimp shells and put the snow-white shrimp meat into her bowl. His considerateness shocked many people's chins. Everyone knew that the third prince was strange and perverse, and now he was so careful and considerate about this prince's concubine.
This shock was even more shocked when seeing Li Yuhua's not astonishing appearance.
Princess Fengyang smiled, "I see that my mother will be able to hold her great-grandson next year."
Queen Mother Lan loves to hear this most, and her heart is extremely comfortable, "I will definitely win this auspicious word with you."
Princess Jiaxiang put down her chopsticks, picked up the clear water at hand and took a sip of it slowly. Her eyes fell on Li Yuhua and quickly withdrew it back. She held her lips and said, "It's great to treat her third sister-in-law. I haven't seen her third brother peel the shrimp shells for the emperor's grandmother before."
Among the brothers and sisters, the one Mu Anzhi disliked the most was Princess Jiaxiang. He was about to fight back. Li Yuhua gently pressed the back of his hand and glanced at Princess Jiaxiang, "Your third brother is far away from the emperor's grandmother. You sit with the emperor's grandmother, and you haven't seen you serve the emperor's grandmother."
Princess Jiaxiang did not expect that Li Yuhua was so clever and immediately choked. The Crown Princess smiled and interrupted, "Sister, don't say this now, it will be the same if you have a prince consort in the future."
Li Yuhua put a piece of honey ham for Mu Anzhi and curled his lips and smiled. Seeing her clever appearance, Mu Anzhi couldn't help but smile and continued to peel shrimps for Li Yuhua.
The princess of the Chu prince raised his glass to toast Empress Lan, "Sister-in-law, now the three princes are all married, and the fourth prince is still young, so the next one should be two princesses."
"Yes, Jiayue Jiaxiang is not in a hurry. I have to keep them for a few more years." Empress Dowager Lan smiled.
There were also singing and dancing at the banquet. Li Yuhua leaned over to talk to Princess Jiayue and asked her about Empress Hui, saying, "I am sick. She has to get up to deal with it when I go over, which is even more disturbing to her spirit. I have some medicinal materials to nourish my body. I will send someone to you later, which is also my wish. There are also a few pieces of materials, which are made from my hometown. Making inner clothes is great. Just keep them and don't be polite to me."
Princess Jiayue thanked, "Thank you, my third sister-in-law, I will accept it with shamelessness."
"That's all." Li Yuhua raised his glass and the two of them had a drink. The prince of Xiangyang was offering a round of wine. When he arrived at Mu Anzhi, he saw that Li Yuhua was fucking with his neck and fucking casually. He immediately brought the pot to Li Yuhua and Princess Jiaxiang and said, "I respect Jiaxiang's sister and third sister-in-law."
Li Yuhua was dissatisfied, "You toast us with a glass of wine. You are so smart. No, you're here to score."
"Sister, third sister-in-law, you can do whatever you want, I have two cups." Seeing that Li Yuhua was still tilting his head, the prince of Xiangyang shone the bottom of the cup, the prince of Xiangyang gave a thumbs up, "Sister-in-law, you are really so bold!"
"You're welcome."
The prince of Xiangyang smirked, "I'll give my sister-in-law another cup."
"It's boring to eat alcohol like this." This stinky brat raised his eyebrows and frowned. Li Yuhua knew what they were thinking, and his eyes turned and said, "Let's play the game, and you'll lose one."
"Sister-in-law can beat the boxing?"
"You just said you can do it?"
"Sister-in-law wins, I'll drink two cups. If I win, my sister-in-law will drink half a cup."
There are often wine orders at palace banquets, but it is mostly elegant and is rare to play with boxing, but in fact everyone can do it. The prince of Xiangyang and Li Yuhua compete with boxing, and young clans come to watch the fun.
Finally, the prince of Xiangyang hugged Emperor Mu Xuan and called him father in drunkenness, which made everyone laugh. Emperor Mu Xuan was so happy and crying, "Hurry up and give Ahao two bowls of sobering soup. The third wife, Ahao, is also a younger brother, don't tease him."
Li Yuhua's face was just a little dizzy when he saw the wine. He smiled and raised his glass to greet Emperor Mu Xuan. Only after he was watching the young clans who were watching Li Yuhua's boxing were considered dispersed.
The second princess and the second princess were stunned. They were both virtuous and virtuous. Although they knew that Li Yuhua was used to snatch the limelight, they used to snatch their limelight, but now they even snatch the limelight of their husbands. Who is this!
Do you still know that you are a woman, you are the prince's concubine? Look at how he looks like a prince, he really brought the habits in the countryside to the palace!
Fortunately, some mature princes did not join in the fun of young people, and they all quietly accompanied His Majesty and the Crown Prince. The second prince and the Crown Prince were all serving Empress Lan and gained a lot of favors.
Basically, the female family and the older royal family did not comment on the prince's concubine. The young royal family thought that the third prince was quite interesting. No wonder the third prince liked it very much. Marrying a wife who can play tricks will at least not be boring.
The banquet that had ended in the second half of the day was so lively that it was getting late. When Queen Mother Lan saw this time, she smiled and said, "I've had dinner before going back."
As a result, it was lively all day long.
Empress Dowager Lan, Emperor Mu Xuan, likes to watch young people lively and have fun. When everyone bid farewell to Ci'en Palace, Li Yuhua took Mu Anzhi's hand and said to Empress Dowager Lan, "Grandmother, Father, Your Highness, you can sit down, let's go and see off my uncle and brother with our second brother and sister-in-law."
Mu Anzhixin said, what is there to give? Li Yuhua said everything, so he stood up and delivered the princess to the door with the second prince and his wife. The older ones told the eunuchs to serve and illuminate the road with lanterns. The peers invited them to come often in the future, just to say a few good words, and to be very polite and intimate.
Li Yuhua never knew these people in the past. The first time she saw her, she kept telling her head about the same thing. Occasionally, there were those who were not very familiar with each other, and Mu Anzhi also knew her.
Li Yuhua didn't do anything big, and treated others with a smile. Even if he was close to the royal family, he had to say in his heart that although this third prince's concubine was born in an ordinary family, she was a polite person. Even the third prince, who had always been cold and distant, was much more friendly than before.
After sending the royal family members, the couple returned to Ci'en Palace. Empress Dowager Lan had prepared sobering soup and each of them drank a cup.
Emperor Mu Xuan stood up and said, "Today I have disturbed my mother for a whole day. My mother is exhausted, so my son will take his leave first."
Everyone was going to say goodbye, Empress Dowager Lan said, "Then go, the emperor will take a break when he goes back." He said to several grandchildren, "Let's talk to you tomorrow."
Emperor Mu Xuan took everyone away, and Li Yuhua walked beside Mu Anzhi. She didn't know that the show-off was a piercing person's eyes today. Princess Jiaxiang was almost out of breath. In the past, many people had flattered her at such banquets, but today they asked Li Yuhua to win everyone's attention. In addition, after Li Yuhua entered the door, she did not go to Fengyi Palace to pay tribute, and the new and old grievances became aggravated. Princess Jiaxiang had long disliked Li Yuhua.
The nine steps of Ci'en Palace are to conquer the honor of Ci'en Palace.
Emperor Mu Xuan and Empress Lu walked in front, followed by the crown prince and the princess, followed by the second prince and his wife, Mu Anzhi and his wife, Princess Jiaxiang deliberately walked behind. Princess Jiayue has always been quiet and has a slightly lower position than Princess Jiaxiang.
After the second prince and his wife went down the steps, Mu Anzhi and Li Yuhua stepped on the seventh step. Princess Jiaxiang seized the opportunity and tripped Li Yuhua's skirt when she went down the steps, blocked her body slightly, and quickly pushed Li Yuhua's waist.
But she didn't know that Li Yuhua was more sophisticated than a monkey. Li Yuhua first tilted his body quickly and avoided Princess Jiaxiang's secret moves. Then, as if he had eyes on his feet, he stepped on Princess Jiaxiang's feet with one step. Princess Jiaxiang screamed. Li Yuhua also screamed, and pounced on Mu Anzhi's arms as delicate as a flower, without stopping Princess Jiaxiang's ecstasy figure at all.
Mu Anzhi hurriedly hugged Li Yuhua and asked in a stack of voices, "What's wrong?"
Princess Jiaxiang fell down a piece of jewelry, her face turned pale and tears flew out, pointing at Li Yuhua, "You dare to step on me!"
Li Yuhua covered her face and pulled Mu Anzhi's sleeve and said delicately, "I don't know what hurts me."
Princess Jiaxiang cried, "My feet, my feet! My third sister-in-law stepped on me and pushed me down!"
Queen Lu suddenly heard her daughter's crying and immediately rushed over quickly. When she heard Princess Jiaxiang's crying, she couldn't bear it this time. Her eyes were like steel needles piercing Li Yuhua, and she asked angrily, "Three daughter-in-law, why are you stepping on Jiaxiang!"
Li Yuhua weakly wiped the tears that did not exist in the corner of his eyes, "The princess is behind me, and I walked next to my third brother. I asked the queen, how can I step on the princess's jade feet and how can I push her down? Sister Jiayue is also behind me. Ask her, do I turn around and step on the princess, or push the princess?"
When the Crown Princess looked at the footprints on Princess Jiaxiang's upper, she frowned in pain, "But, is Sister Jiaxiang being stepped on?
Emperor Mu Xuan and the prince also came over, staring at the shoe prints on Princess Jiaxiang's feet. Li Yuhua said, "Then you have to ask why the princess stretched her feet behind me. She stretched her feet so long, what's the way? It's a coincidence. I don't have eyes on my feet, and it hurts me all at once."
"It's just you step on me and push me!" Princess Jiaxiang cried endlessly.
Mu An knew the cause and effect at once, and asked Princess Jiaxiang coldly, "Then tell me, how could Yuhua step on your feet behind you, and how could she push you without looking back! She has the hands behind her back?"
"It's her that's her! All my palace maids have seen it!"
The palace maid beside Princess Jiaxiang said, "Whose footprints on the princess's shoes are from, you can tell at first glance."
Princess Jiayue wanted to speak but stopped.
Like under the silver moonlight, Li Yuhua's smile became gentler. She seemed to be savoring some beautiful memories. She said with interest, "In the past, there was a bad girl in our village who stumbled on me secretly. I didn't know that I had been on guard against her, so I stepped on her and broke her. She would never dare to put black feet in front of me for the rest of her life. Saint Kong said, "I am not a saint, and I have also left mercy for revenge on my grudges. My father and the empress don't need to thank me anymore! Such a stupid girl with black hearts was born in the royal family. If she were in our village, she would have been beaten to death!"
When she pulled Mu Anzhi, she was domineering and her voice was cold, "Go back to sleep!"
