After Xiao Fubao's life was stolen, she became the favorite of the Beijing group

At this time, in the Queen's Palace, the emperor and the empress were playing chess against each other.

"I don't know how the boss will handle the affairs in the wife's husband's family." The emperor said casually.

The queen placed a black stone on the chessboard and said, "The boss will always make the right choice."

Of course, even if it is incorrect, the emperor and his wife will not abolish the position of the crown princess just because of this favoritism.

The emperor dropped a white stone on the board and said, "I win."

The queen complained: "We agreed to play chess with me today, but you don't know what to do with me."

The emperor smiled helplessly and said: "Okay, okay, let's play the next game again. This time I will give you a good hand."

The queen shook her head: "It's like this every time. You get the upper hand when it's going down. It's boring, so I'd better recruit a few big players to play chess with me."

The emperor immediately became anxious and said: "Otherwise, let your father-in-law or eldest brother come to play chess with you, and you are not allowed to call Luo Zhang."

The queen gave him a strange look and said, "I'm already married, why are you still sour?"

The emperor's jealousy seemed to be particularly strong. Just because Luo Zhang looked at the queen in a strange way, the emperor asked him about some old things, and he suddenly became jealous.

The emperor was jealous but did not ban the queen from leaving the palace or restrict her behavior. Instead, he tried every means to torment Luo Zhang. Within his own ability, he promoted Luo Zhang and sent people to the capital.

The emperor finally breathed a sigh of relief when the person was no longer in sight. He felt frightened when he thought that the two families had almost discussed marriage.

If the marriage had really been decided in his hometown back then, then he really wouldn't have had anything to worry about.

Luo Zhang's father has gotten older in recent years and wanted his son to return to Beijing to honor him, so Luo Zhang was transferred back.

At the age when Luo Zhang should have gotten married, he refused all marriages as if to punish himself. However, after returning to the capital, he didn't know if his old father persuaded him, and finally got married and gave birth to a son last year.

Of course the emperor believed that there was no ambiguity between his wife and Luo Zhang, but they had studied together and were childhood sweethearts. The thought of this always made him jealous and tried every means to separate the two.

"I haven't seen Sun's father for a long time. I asked someone to ask him if he is free to play chess with me." Niu Niu said with a smile.

The emperor was completely relieved and did not stay here to be an eyesore. He said: "There are still some official matters that have not been dealt with. I will go back to the imperial study to have a look. Remember to let the Sun family have dinner. I will come when the time comes."

The emperor rarely calls himself "I" in front of the queen, because for clinical reasons, this title can also be used for the queen, but they rarely use this word when they are with their families.

"Okay, I'll ask someone to bring the godmother in as well." The queen said with a smile.

In a blink of an eye, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet. The palace did not entertain the courtiers, but only invited family members.

Princess Jing entered the palace with a large group of sons, daughters-in-law, grandchildren. As the emperor's biological mother, she did not become the queen mother after the emperor ascended the throne, but still stayed in Prince Jing's palace.

Even though she did not have the actual title of Queen Mother, people outside did not dare to look down upon her in the slightest.

Even the queen treats her with the courtesy of a daughter-in-law.

At this time, the queen mother, Prince Jing and his wife were sitting in the upper seat, and the emperor and empress were also sitting below them.

The former Concubine Shun, now the Queen Mother, looked at the relatives in the palace with a smile.

Princess Bao'er and his wife also returned to the palace today with their children. At this time, they didn't know what they were telling their children.

The relatives of the Queen Mother's family were sitting next to Liu Xiaoru and his wife, pointing to the dishes on the table and full of admiration.

Mr. and Mrs. Sun Jiaxing and their grandson were watching the song and dance performance in the palace.

Mrs. Gu and Daddy Gu are already very old, but they are still bright-eyed. At this time, Mrs. Gu glanced at the Queen from a distance and said to Daddy Gu: "I told you, our dear baby will wear gold clothes." She looks best in red. You see how energetic she looks in gold."

Dad Gu put a piece of pastry into his mouth and said vaguely: "You are the most beautiful, you are the most beautiful."

Mrs. Gu glared at her husband and said, "Start pretending to be confused again!"

The corners of Daddy Gu's mouth slowly raised, and he said, "Baby, I look good in anything I wear, but I don't look as good as you."

Mrs. Gu is too lazy to quarrel with Father Gu. Her children are filial, and there is nothing wrong with her health even in her old age. Even the eldest and third bedrooms are living a peaceful life now. She has no worries at all and feels that she is absolutely perfect. The most blessed old lady in Beijing.

"That's weird, where has the wife gone?" Mrs. Gu asked Dad Gu in a low voice.

Father Gu just glanced at the empty seat next to the Crown Princess and said: "We are all great-grandchildren, why do you care so much? The singing and dancing are so beautiful. If you miss it, they won't dance for you a second time. ”

When Mrs. Gu saw that the old man was perfunctory with her, she turned directly to Zhang Yunniang: "Yunniang, take a look, are the young couple having a quarrel? Find someone quickly to persuade the wife, don't let him make our eldest daughter angry."

Zhang Yunniang listened to her mother-in-law's insistence and deflection, and said helplessly: "Mom, Dabao is already in her twenties. She can handle her affairs by herself, so don't worry about it."

"Having children is a lifetime concern. Dabao has enough official duties to deal with on a daily basis. Aren't I afraid that she will be upset about family matters? This concubine is really not sensible at all." Old Mrs. Gu complain.

Old Lady Gu was very kind to her daughters-in-law, but she always had very high requirements for her sons-in-law. Even when the empress got married, the old lady had many requirements for the emperor, but she didn't dare to say it out loud.

Zhang Yunniang vaguely knew why the prince's husband did not appear at today's banquet, and guessed that it was probably related to the incident in Mizhou.

The prince's husband's brother occupied farmland in Mizhou, bullied the market, and injured people on horseback. This series of events was discovered by the Gu family.

Gu Mingda did not make a fuss about this matter in the court, but sent someone to inform the crown princess first.

The crown princess dealt with the prince's husband's family in a straightforward manner. The prince's husband was also sick because of this matter, but the crown princess did not change her mind. It seemed that there was a faint news in the East Palace that the prince's husband had fallen out of favor.

"Mother, children and grandchildren have their own blessings. If something really happens, His Majesty and the Queen will not ignore it. You used to worry that His Majesty would bully the Queen. If you really want to worry, you should worry about the Princess' husband. After all, the Princess holds great power and she will not be bullied." Zhang Yunniang comforted.

Old Lady Gu glanced at the Emperor and Empress sitting above, thought about it, and it seemed to be true, so she didn't say anything.

The Emperor and Empress suddenly stood up together, holding up their wine glasses, and said to everyone present under the bright light: "Today, the whole family is reunited. May every year be like this day and this night."
