Chapter 1069 376 Tea (Two More)

Jianyu carried Nangong Yue and Xiao Fei all the way to the front of Fu Rui Hall before they got off the sedan chair.

Xiao Yi immediately stepped forward diligently and personally helped Nangong Yue off his shoulders. The mother-in-law and mother-in-law who were on the side had never seen the prince so sympathetic and cherishing jade, and they only thought it was incredible.

Xiao Yi didn't care what others thought of it at all, he took Nangong Yue's hand affectionately and walked towards the main hall.

And Xiao Fei had seen it for a long time, and followed behind them with a light expression, thinking: Anyway, big brother won't be able to stick with big sister for a few days. In the future, big brother must be busy with official business, then big sister can play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting with her during the day. , talk about the past and the present!

Thinking about it, Xiao Fei finally regained her energy, and her steps became much lighter.

In the main hall, it was almost overcrowded, and the masters of the whole room gathered together.

On the front wall facing the gate, there is a three-foot painting of a dragon facing the ink. Below is a large red sandalwood carving table, on both sides are red sandalwood Taishi chairs, and sixteen Nanmu chairs are two underground. The marble floor is covered with red in the middle. wool carpet.

When Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue walked into Fu Rui Tang, everyone's eyes were cast.

The one who walked side by side with Xiao Yi was naturally the concubine who was enshrined by imperial decree. She was only fourteen or fifteen years old. She was wearing a bright purple feather gauze with a pair of fronts, and a light purple moonflower pleated skirt with her head rolled up. A graceful bun, which has not yet reached the pinnacle, has no hairpins, but has a few pearls strung with thumb-sized pearls.

Her steps are not in a hurry, and the distance of each step seems to be measured with a ruler, and her gestures are full of style.

Nangong Yue also looked at the people in the main hall.

According to Xiao Yi, the Old Town South King had three sons and two daughters. The second son and the third son were both concubines. Dazhi just wants to live comfortably in the palace. Therefore, although it is customary to separate the family after the death of the parents, the second room is a widow, but the third room can be separated. But the days outside are not so comfortable in the palace, so Xiao Che went to beg the King of Zhennan. King Zhennan is too lazy to worry about it. Anyway, there are many bowls of rice in the palace. Since his brother refuses to leave, he doesn't care.

Therefore, until now, the second and third rooms still live in the palace.

The second-bedroom Mrs. Qiu was a widow, so when Nangong Yue came in to recognize her relatives, she naturally couldn't show up to avoid bad luck.

At this moment, Xiao Che and Xiao Xin from the third room were sitting next to King Zhennan.

Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue walked to the master chair of the main seat together, and the one sitting in the main seat was naturally King Zhennan.

A few years ago, Nangong Yue only saw King Zhennan from a distance at the palace banquet once. King Zhennan looked dignified, handsome and valiant. He was about thirty-seven or eighteen years old. He had lived in the southern border for a long time. His complexion was slightly dull and rough, and the corners of his mouth showed a hint of pride.

Nangong Yue looked at King Zhennan carefully, but unfortunately there was no trace of Xiao Yi on his face, but Xiao Yi was somewhat similar to Xiao Fang. It seems that Xiao Yi obviously looks like his biological mother.

Mrs. Fang was sitting on the Taishi chair next to King Zhennan. When she saw Xiao Fei, she couldn't help but hurriedly shouted, "Sister Fei."

Xiao Fei saw that her parents were slightly disrespectful, but she had always been cold-hearted, and soon returned to normal, and saluted respectfully: "I have seen father and mother, mother..."

Mrs. Fang got up, grabbed Xiao Fei and looked up, "Sister Fei, you seem to have lost a lot of weight, but you are not used to living in the capital?" As she spoke, she looked at Nangong Yue intentionally or unintentionally. At a glance, there is even more meaning in the words.

Mrs. Fang was wearing a bright red robe with ten kinds of brocade makeup, with rubies and gold hairpins stuck in her bun, which was even more festive than the bride Nangong Yue.

Nangong Yue didn't say a word, but her eyes stopped on Xiao Fang's waist. She remembered that Xiao Fang always liked to wear a dress that fit her to show off her slender waist, but today, Xiao Fang's dress seems to be A little fatter, completely covering her graceful figure, could it be...

Nangong Yue thought for a moment, but she remained silent.

"Don't worry, mother," Xiao Fei, who was on the side, returned to Xiao Fang's family in a serious manner. "My sister-in-law is taking care of her, and my daughter is doing well in the capital. It's probably because of the tiredness of travel these days, so I lost some weight."

"Really?" Xiao Fang scolded her daughter inwardly, but said softly, "Sister Fei, then you should thank your sister-in-law well."

"Mother said yes!" Xiao Fei nodded seriously.

Xiao Fang was secretly annoyed, how could she have given birth to such a straight-forward daughter!

She was about to speak again, when Xiao Fei said solemnly: "Mother, if you have anything else to say, we'll talk about it later. Sister-in-law is here for the first time today, so I should ask my brother and sister-in-law to serve tea to the father and mother first. It's my dear."

Xiao Fang's face almost didn't turn black, and he almost doubted whether he had auditory hallucinations. The daughter actually helped Nangong Yue speak? !

King Zhennan looked at Xiao Yi with a straight face.

He received the imperial decree at the end of March and only knew that Xiao Yi was coming back. At that time, he was shocked and didn't understand what the emperor meant.

Of course, Xiao Yi is his eldest son, and he is also the heir of the Zhennan Palace. It is a matter of course for him to return to the southern border. But why is it at this time? But it was when Baiyue declared war on Dayu?

Xiao Yi had been in the capital for six years, and most of the time he had been coaxed into obedience by the emperor, and he didn't even have much filial piety towards his father. This thought together made King Zhennan more and more uneasy, feeling that the emperor deliberately asked Xiao Yi to come back to contain him...

Such uneasiness caused King Zhennan to not send anyone to greet Xiao Yi until he entered Luoyue City, and he did not even inform the captain of the city gate in advance. From the bottom of his heart, he wanted to give Xiao Yi a showdown and let Xiao Yi understand that in the southern border, he was the king of Zhennan! He is the ruler of Southern Border! And Xiao Yi is nothing but his son!

Unexpectedly...

Tian He is really nosy. King Zhennan was very impatient. These veterans who used to follow their father were still too lenient to them, and they all climbed on his head.

Do you really think that the King of Zhennan is dead? !

Thinking of this, King Zhennan's complexion became more and more heavy, and he said lukewarmly, "Since everyone is back, let's serve tea first."

The two women hurriedly put the two futons in front of King Zhennan, Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue knelt down and kowtowed to King Zhennan, and immediately a maid brought tea over.

King Zhennan took Xiao Yijing's tea first, took a sip and put it aside, then his eyes fell on Nangong Yue.

This is the first time he has seen this prince concubine conferred by the emperor.

Seeing her with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, she knelt down beside Xiao Yi with an obedient face. She looked like a girl from Shilin's aristocratic family.

He had never heard of a new daughter-in-law who would steal her husband's property as soon as she entered the door, and discourage her husband-in-law from being filial to his parents!

No wonder Xiao Yi is now more and more rebellious!

Also, the emperor has always been afraid of their Zhennan palace, so how could he really promise Xiao Yi a good girl, that is, Xiao Yi, the evil son, was dazzled by the beauty.

Nangong Yue took the tea brought by the maid, raised the tea cup with both hands, and said with a respectful expression, "Please drink tea."

King Zhennan didn't take the tea right away.

He stared at Nangong Yue coldly for a while, and then said coldly: "Nangong Shi, although you are the Princess Cong Yipin, but you are married to your husband. Since you marry into the Zhennan Palace, you must guard me. The rules of the Zhennan Palace, abide by the three obedience and the four virtues, I hope you will stick to the virtues of women, and understand the four words 'chaste, quiet and virtuous'." After speaking, he took the tea slowly, took a sip, and gave Nangong Yue a seal red.

Nangong Yue took Feng Hong with both hands, and replied obediently, "My daughter-in-law will follow the teachings of the father and the king."

From the first sentence of King Zhennan's words, Xiao Yi's eyes became cold, and after serving the tea, he immediately supported Nangong Yue to stand up, and sneered: "I didn't expect the father and the king to know how to be a woman, My son is really educated!"

Since ancient times, only the mother-in-law reprimanded the daughter-in-law, and the husband taught his wife by his pillow. How could a father-in-law reprimand his daughter-in-law on the day when the new daughter-in-law came to serve tea?

In an instant, King Zhennan also realized that he was doing something wrong, and his face became extremely ugly.

For a while, the main hall was quiet. Not to mention the maids and the ladies were so nervous that they didn't even dare to breathe. Even the masters didn't dare to let out their anger. Xiao Che from the third room and Mrs Xin exchanged glances. Vibrant. Everyone knows that King Zhennan has a good face, lest he will be angered if he is not careful.

Only Xiao Luan yawned lazily and muttered in his heart: Father Wang seems to be getting old, and he has become a mother-in-law like a woman, not at all straightforward! Wouldn't it be better to serve tea earlier? He was in a hurry to go back to the study... um, reading!

King Zhennan glared at Xiao Yi fiercely, and Xiao Yi looked back without hesitation, showing no fear at all.

An invisible gunpowder filled between the father and son.

Seeing that the atmosphere was deadlocked, Nangong Yue took Xiao Yi's hand and shook it gently.

Xiao Yi turned his head to look at her, his gleaming peach blossom eyes burst into a smile, and he no longer bothered to pay attention to King Zhennan.

All the people around were stunned. Xiao Yi had a surly temper since he was a child. Once he screwed up, no one would listen to him, so the imperial concubine coaxed him so lightly? Are they all blind?

When he looked at King Zhennan again, Xiao Yi's expression had calmed down, and he said lightly, "Father's tea has been served, and it should be my mother-in-law's turn next."

mother-in-law? !

Xiao Fang, who was sitting beside King Zhennan, looked stiff, and could hardly keep his smile on his face. Now that she has been detained, she can't stand Xiao Yi's "mother concubine". Obviously, the "mother concubine" in Xiao Yi's mouth must be his biological mother.

Not only did Xiao Fang's face change, but even King Zhennan's expression was a little complicated.

Although he doesn't have a deep relationship with his first wife, Dafang's, Dafang is always his original wife and Xiao Yi's biological mother. Xiao Yi has to offer tea to his biological mother first.

It's just that Xiao Fang was wronged to raise him from a young age... King Zhennan glanced at Xiao Fang with guilt.

Xiao Fang smiled and pretended to be gentle and said, "My lord, it's only natural for Ayi to bring the concubine to give incense to her sister."

Xiao Yi didn't bother to look at her pretentious appearance, so he casually cupped his hands and said, "Father, my son will take his wife first." After speaking, he took Nangong Yue's hand and walked away dignifiedly.

The people in this room waited for nearly half an hour. King Zhennan had already drank a belly of water, and Xiao Luan had no idea how many yawns he had yawned. Finally, when Xiao Yi finally brought Nangong Yue back, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and thought: Finally, he came back.

King Zhennan had long been impatient, and hurriedly urged: "Hurry up and serve tea to your mother!"

Xiao Yi smiled and nodded, "Father said yes."

The two walked up to Mrs. Fang, and immediately there was a little maid who set up the futon.

Xiao Yi bowed his hands in a salute, while Nangong Yue just bowed her knees slightly and called out, "Mother."

Mrs. Fang was sitting dignifiedly, waiting for them to kowtow and salute. She also wanted to take the opportunity to give Nangong Yue a lesson or two and show her mother-in-law's profile. But now, in this way, the two of them are considered salute? Before Xiao Fang could react, Xiao Yi had already casually called the maid next to him, "You, bring the tea here."

The maid who was named was startled, carefully glanced at Xiao Fang's face, and timidly brought the tea over.

Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue each picked up a cup of tea, just bent down slightly, then offered it with both hands, and said, "Please use tea, mother."

Xiao Fang sternly looked at the two cups of tea brought in front of him, but did not take it, letting the two hold it with both hands.

Xiao Fei, who was on the side, hesitated to speak, but the current situation did not have the qualifications for her to speak, so she could only watch anxiously.

Xiao Yi has never been a person who would feel wronged, he straightened up with a smile, put the tea back on the tray held by the maid, and helped Nangong Yue, saying, "It seems that mother doesn't want to drink this cup of tea. "

"Ayi, Nangong's." King Zhennan frowned and reprimanded, "Don't kneel down and kowtow to your mother to serve tea!"

Xiao Yi smiled and said, "Father, you seem to have forgotten that your son's concubine is from the First Grade Princess."

King Zhennan choked, he really almost forgot.

The Nangong clan is the dignified county lord. If they were not married to their vassal king's mansion, but an ordinary mansion, even the in-laws would have to bow to her upside down. It’s fine for me, but Xiao Fang’s life has already been taken away, and she is not Xiao Yi’s biological mother, so the two of them salute, strictly speaking, it’s not wrong…

But this is only what the rules say. When it comes to filial piety, Mrs. Fang is Xiao Yi's first-mother after all. She raised him from a young age, and it is only natural to be kneeled by them.

"Ai!"

King Zhennan urged again, but Xiao Yi ignored it.

He simply took the tea cup from Nangong Yue's hand and said nonchalantly, "Since the mother doesn't want to drink this cup of tea from the son's daughter-in-law, then the son will take the daughter-in-law to offer tea to his uncles and aunts first."

Xiao Fang's face froze completely.

In ordinary people, if the in-laws have not drunk the tea respected by the daughter-in-law, then the daughter-in-law is not considered to have really passed the door. But Nangongyue is a marriage bestowed by the emperor, the marriage of the emperor and the queen, and Xiao Fang is just a stepmother, and a stepmother without a mandate. She has no right to say that Nangongyue has not offered tea to herself, so she is not from the Zhennan Palace. The princess...

Mrs. Fang couldn't help but froze there. If the two of them passed her and went to serve tea to the third room first, what would they be?

This time, it was not easy to coax King Zhennan to let her return to the palace, but it was only a title of his own wife. If even the prince and the prince's concubine ignored her like this, wouldn't it make the servants look down on her?

Then how can she get a foothold in the palace?

Mrs. Fang looked pitifully at King Zhennan, and King Zhennan couldn't help but soften his heart. Before he could speak, Nangong Yue, who had been watching the expressions of the two, took a step forward and said with a smile: "Sir, you should respect your mother first. Tea is better."

Xiao Yi glanced at Mrs. Fang, then curled the corners of his lips and said, "Well, it's up to you."

Seeing this, King Zhennan nodded approvingly, but he didn't expect this Nangong clan to know a lot.

The maid tremblingly handed over the tea.

Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue took it respectively and handed it over with a bow.

"Please mother for tea."

Mrs. Fang reluctantly took the tea cup, took a symbolic sip, and even forgot the originally planned admonition, and gave the two of them a red seal. Nangong Yue also added a set of ruby ​​gold. head.

Nangong Yue took the thank you and gave it to Baihui.

She always had a smile on her face, so peaceful and indifferent, which made those who looked on couldn't help but praise her, which was really good.
