Family Has a Concubine

Zhao Yingqi was so scolded by Qi Min that she didn't dare to make a sound, she just lowered her head and said nothing.

Ye Tangcai pulled her and said with a smile: "Ten days later, it will be the housewarming ceremony of Minmin's family. In another month, it will be my family's. You must come to play then."

"Yeah." Zhao Yingqi was overjoyed and nodded joyfully.

At this time, there was a sound of gongs and drums outside, and Ye Tangcai said: "The banquet is about to start, let's go!"

After saying that, several people went out, headed towards the door, to meet at the entrance of Qinghui Courtyard, a group of young girls chattered and shyly glanced to the right before leaving.

Ye Tangcai looked up and saw that Chu Yunpan was standing there with his hands behind his back. When he saw Ye Tangcai, he smiled brightly: "Is it fun?"

When Ye Tangcai saw him, her heart was bubbling, and she rushed forward: "It's fun!"

"Let's go!" Chu Yunpan smiled and gently supported her waist.

Ye Tangcai leaned lightly on him: "Mmm. Where did the third master go just now?"

"In the study room, discuss some important matters with the emperor. The banquet has begun, and I will pick you up first." While talking, the husband and wife both left.

Ye Tangcai turned around and smiled at Qi Min and Zhao Yingqi before leaving.

Qi Min's face froze for a moment, and he walked a few steps with Zhao Yingqi, and saw Liang Wang standing not far away coldly.

Liang Wang's charming eyebrows and eyes swept over there with disgust, then turned and left quickly.

Zhao Yingqi was so frightened that she trembled, and she held up her skirt and ran after her.

The corners of Qi Min's mouth twitched, and he let out a sound, she won't eat these two mouthfuls of dog food! Especially the one at the back, it's poisonous!

A group of people soon arrived at the main hall, and the little eunuch outside led the guests in.

Because of Chu Yunpan's outstanding military exploits, and today it was held for Chu Yunpan, the seats of the Chu family were assigned to the first seat on the lower right, and the first seat on the opposite left was King Liang.

Qi Min was alone, so he arranged her to sit with Chu Miaohua at the Chu family's side.

After everyone was seated, Emperor Zhengxuan, Empress Zheng and others also joined the table, and the banquet began.

Zhao Yingqi was very happy to see Ye Tangcai on the opposite side, pouted at Ye Tangcai for a while, smiled for a while, Liang Wangjun's face turned dark, and annoyed, he directly threw a piece of pancake to paste on her face.

"Aww..." Zhao Yingqi's face was covered with greasy, and she was about to cry, so she had to hang her head down and wipe her face with a handkerchief dipped in water, and finally calmed down.

Next, the dancer came into the arena to dance, and Zhao Yingqi concentrated on eating the buns.

After a dance was over, one of the three bunnies was gone when he turned around, Wang Liang's face turned dark and he glared at her coldly.

Zhao Yingqi had no choice but to lower her head and dare not look at him.

Emperor Zhengxuan was in a good mood, so he chatted with Chu Yunpan.

Empress Zheng on the side looked at Chu Yunpan, frowned, asked to change clothes, and left the table with Madam Shi.

Empress Zheng was in a hurry, so she went to the toilet with Nanny Shi, and then walked back.

On the bluestone path, there are clumps of sweet-scented osmanthus on both sides, and the autumn wind blows, and the fragrance is pleasant.

Empress Zheng said suddenly: "I always feel that this Chu Yunpan looks familiar, but I can't remember it."

Nanny Shi supported Empress Zheng's hand, and said, "Your maidservant remembered, does she look like that Yunxia?"

"Which Yunxia?" Empress Zheng frowned, "A new concubine entering the palace?"

"No, it's Princess Yunxia! That woman's eldest daughter!" Shi Momo said, her voice sank.

Empress Zheng was startled, then her expression changed, her voice trembling: "Yes... just like her."

Some memories are too long ago, and I can't remember them when I mention them for a while. Now Nanny Shi has made it clear that the eldest daughter of Empress Xiao of the Yuan Dynasty——Princess Yunxia!

Only then did Empress Zheng get enlightened, and she remembered the eldest princess who was favored by the emperor back then! In the end, because of the affairs of the Xiao family, she begged to go to Tongzhou with Empress Xiao, and never came back since then.

"Ma'am, tell me, does this Chu Yunpan have anything to do with Princess Yunxia?" Nanny Shi's eyes sharpened.

Empress Zheng frowned, sat down on the flowerbed beside her, and said in a low voice: "That dead girl died a long time ago, and the body has been brought back." Then she snorted coldly, "It's really nothing to die, damn it is not dead."

Although the emperor now prefers the crown prince, but after all, Liang Wang has some favors and often makes small moves, no one will think that his position is too stable.

Empress Zheng said again: "There are similarities between people. A few years ago, the emperor even mentioned that someone's daughter is like her. Last year, the new daughter-in-law of the Minister of Rites was still five points like me. She also hinted that she wanted to recognize Bengong as a godmother." Then he sneered.

"Your Majesty is also reasonable." Nanny Shi nodded.

Moreover, Princess Yunxia was only ten years old when she came out of the palace. After many years, they have long forgotten about it. They only remembered a general idea, and they just felt that they resembled Chu Yunpan.

"It's just...he looks a bit like that dead girl after all, and that's the sister of King Liang..." Madam Shi was overwhelmed, "Could it be that he looks a little like that, so he wins over?"

"What nonsense?" Empress Zheng snorted softly, "King Liang was only six years old when he returned to the palace. What can he remember at the age of six? Like you and me, can you still remember the appearance of a child?"

Shi Momo nodded after listening, "Your Majesty is right."

"Mother's Queen." At this time, a voice came, but it was the crown prince who came over and saw Empress Zheng and Shi Momo sitting on a flowerbed, "Why is Mother's Queen sitting here?"

"The prince came just in time." Empress Zheng smiled, "Do you still remember your sister Yunxia?" When Yunxia left the palace, the prince happened to be six years old.

"What sister Yunxia?" The prince frowned.

"Your elder sister." Empress Zheng said.

"Ah..." The crown prince frowned, "There is such a person, I have no impression." Since Emperor Zhengxuan missed his beloved daughter for a while, and occasionally said a few words, the crown prince knew this person.

"Look!" Empress Zheng glanced at Nanny Shi.

Madam Shi nodded.

"What are you talking about, Queen Mother?" the prince said.

"I didn't say anything." Empress Zheng smiled, "I just started talking because I saw that Chu Yunpan looked a bit like her."

"Really?" The prince rubbed his chin, "So that's how it is. No wonder Father favors him so much. In the past, when he was the number one scholar, he was often sent to the upper study room. Now, even the set of red flame armor is given to him. It turned out to be like an old friend!"

"The emperor really likes him." Shi Momo frowned, "This person... it's better to win him over. After all, Princess Liang has a good relationship with that Ye Tangcai."

The prince sneered: "What can that silly girl do, but the bag on her head is fun."

Mentioning this, Empress Zheng's face darkened.

Zhao Yingqi entered the palace since she was a child, and grew up with Prince Liang and others as childhood sweethearts. When she was young, she liked to wear two bags on her head, and the prince went to play with the bags on her head, but was given by Liang Wang. Pushed into the water and half drowned.

It was winter, and the prince was ill for a full month.
