The reborn brother eats candy

Seeing this scene, Princess Pingyang smiled, held Xu Yan's hand in one hand, and Xu Yangyi's hand in the other, and said, "Okay, that's good, there is no conflict between brothers and sisters, it's just Wen'er I went to the frontier with your father and king, but I can’t come back to have a family reunion this Mid-Autumn Festival.”

Hearing this, Xu Yan interjected, "Mother and concubine don't have to be sad. Father is a prince, and he also has the responsibility of protecting the family and the country. The son admires his father very much. As for Wen'er, he is not young, and He has practiced martial arts since he was a child, so it is a good thing to go to the frontier to experience it this time. Besides, with his son and Yang Yi accompanying his mother and concubine, how can there be no reunion during the Mid-Autumn Festival?"

"That's right, does the mother concubine only think about her second brother and not Yang Yi? Yang Yi usually spends most of her time in the palace with her aunt, so doesn't the mother concubine miss Yang Yi?" Xu Yangyi said.

Princess Pingyang was a little regretful at first, but now she became happy when she heard what her son and daughter said. She pointed at the tip of Xu Yangyi's nose with her finger and said, "Why don't you think about Yangyi? Concubine Mother is just you, my precious daughter." , I really keep it in my heart all the time. It’s just that your two cousins ​​are often not in the capital, and the concubine mother is still accompanied by Wen’er. Your aunt in the harem is no better than the concubine mother in the palace. Stay with me."

"My aunt is the empress, so is there anyone else who will be angry with my aunt?" Xu Yangyi asked doubtfully, tilting her head.

"Isn't it? It's just that the deep palace is complicated, and you, a little girl, don't understand. The only thing is that your aunt will not hurt you no matter what." Princess Pingyang stroked Xu Yangyi's hair, and said softly.

Xu Yan pondered for a moment, and couldn't help asking, "I haven't seen my cousin for many years, why are they not in the capital now?"

"Yan'er, you grew up in Jiuli Mountain, and you don't know what happened in this capital." Princess Pingyang sighed and continued, "Your seventh cousin has a fierce temper, and for some reason you have a dispute with the current prince. You also know that the crown prince was the only one of the former empress.

Son, the emperor dotes on the former empress so much, so naturally he prefers the prince more.Your seventh cousin was not convinced, so he went to the Northland in a fit of anger, saying that he went to visit the mountains and rivers.Little Seventeen was restless again, so he followed Old Seven.Forget it, don't talk about it. "

Xu Yan saw that Princess Pingyang looked a little tired, so he pursed his lips and stopped asking.But secretly thinking about his seventh cousin in his heart.The seven sons of the current emperor were born to the current empress, and they are brothers of the same mother as the seventeen princes.In Xu Yan's impression, the Seventh Prince has always been a very manly man with a strong temper.Therefore, when Princess Pingyang said that he lost his temper in Beijing and went out to visit the mountains and rivers, Xu Yan really didn't believe it.I just hope that he can live in peace for a while, and don't cause cholera again.

So this topic came to an end, Princess Pingyang was thinking about the Mid-Autumn Festival reunion with her children, and she didn't want to mention the troubles in the harem.Mama Cui, who was waiting beside Princess Pingyang, was an old man beside Princess Pingyang, and she always had the ability to read words and expressions. When she saw this, she hurriedly walked forward with a smile on her face, and at the same time reached out to beckon the little maid behind her.

"Princess, this mansion has been decorated according to your instructions. The food and supplies for Wanyan, as well as the gift boxes sent to the palace and other mansions have also been sent out." Mother Cui bowed halfway, wiping The pear-scented hair was meticulously pulled into a semi-circular bun, revealing a rich and round white face, and continued with a smile on his face, "I see that it's still early, the princess, why don't you use some moon cakes with the prince and princess first?" ? The maidservant has heard that this mooncake was brought by the princess from the palace, and the princess is really filial to the princess."

Hearing this, Princess Pingyang nodded with a smile, held Xu Yangyi's hand and praised, "Yes, Yangyi has always been a filial child, come, Yan'er also come and taste this mooncake."

Cui's mother winked at the maid behind her, and the little maid understood and immediately carried the tray, walked quickly to Xu Yan and delivered the mooncakes to Xu Yan.Then Mama Cui took the mooncakes herself, and respectfully went up to ask Princess Pingyang and Princess Pingyang to taste them.

Xu Yan saw that the mooncakes handed over were very beautiful in design, and they were not quite the same as the patterns of blooming and rich flowers in previous years.In addition to the gorgeous patterns, it also ingeniously made the appearance of various flowers, which look lifelike and have excellent hues.

The rose-shaped moon cake is delicate and beautiful, and it looks very beautiful. Xu Yangyi's girlish nature, seeing such a beautiful and delicate food, she is naturally happy, so she stretched out two fingers to take it, and after looking carefully Then he laughed and said, "The imperial palace is indeed an imperial palace, and the mooncakes are made differently from other places."

Princess Pingyang also laughed, stroking Xu Yangyi's hair and lovingly said, "Taste it quickly, your aunt's exquisite thought is really very precious."

Hearing this, Xu Yangyi nodded with a smile, took a bite of the mooncake with the handkerchief in one hand, and tasted it carefully, then said, "Well, it melts in your mouth, it's sweet but not greasy, and has a strong fragrance. Really delicious."

Xu Yan also randomly took a piece and tasted it, only to find it a little sweet and greasy, and he has never liked sweets, so he didn't take a second piece.I couldn't help but miss Su Liangsheng again.When I was in Jiuli Mountain on weekdays, I often ordered Liang Sheng to eat less because I was afraid that Liang Sheng would eat too much sweets and cause tooth decay.And at this time, Su Liangsheng would lick his fingers, look and look at the sweets like a greedy cat, his pitiful look made people smile.

Thinking of this, Xu Yan couldn't help but smiled, thinking that when he returned to Jiuli Mountain, he must bring more food for Su Liangsheng, otherwise a certain little baby would be angry, and he would have to hug and coax Su Liangsheng by himself.

Chatting like this, the color quietly wiped black, and the sky full of stars dotted the vast night, and set off the bright and bright moonlight.

Princess Pingyang was supported by Mama Cui and Princess Princess from left to right, with a group of maidservants behind her, happily walking through the promenade full of red lanterns, and a little maidservant carrying a lantern He led the way through the bluestone path and entered the backyard of the palace.

It has already been carefully arranged, except for some flowers that fit the occasion, even the Ziqi Donglai screen that is usually placed in the living room is placed up.Next to the screen is a high desk, on which there is a pot of coral reefs carefully carved from the best blood jade, which is really lifelike and ingenious when viewed from a distance.

All the maids and servants were standing on both sides with smiles on their faces, and even the few concubines who didn't come out often on weekdays, when they saw the princess came, they all stood aside respectfully.

Princess Pingyang nodded in satisfaction, and was seated by Mama Cui, who asked everyone to sit down.

Only then did Xu Yan and the others take their seats. Due to their status, Xu Yan and Xu Yangyi naturally sat on both sides of Princess Pingyang.And those concubines and the more respectable nuns sat in a corner far away.

In the past, when the King of Pingyang was in the mansion, the palace was always extra cautious, but now that the King of Pingyang is not there, he can relax a little.After Princess Pingyang ordered the banquet to begin, a group of maidservants passed by and put the delicacies that had been prepared in advance on the table.

Taking advantage of the gap between Princess Pingyang and Xu Yangyi's conversation, Xu Yan looked around, but he couldn't find Xu Mo's shadow. He couldn't help being a little surprised, so he whispered to Zhuohua who was waiting behind him. , "Why didn't the young master come? Didn't you send someone to invite him?"

"Returning to the son, the princess missed Cui who was beside her earlier.

Sister Yu went to the side room in Dongyuan to invite the young master, but the young master was not feeling well, so he didn't come over tonight. " Zhuo Hua replied.

Nodding his head, Xu Yan waved his hand at Zhuo Hua, and Zhuo Hua saluted and stood back a little further.

At first, Xu Yan only knew that Su Liangsheng liked to use the excuse of being unwell to escape morning class, but now he realized that his younger brother also likes to use this excuse.The excuse of being unwell is really useful, Xu Yan shook his head secretly, thinking in his heart, well, since Mo'er doesn't want to come over, it's because he still has some feelings for the concubine mother in his heart.But it doesn't matter, after the banquet is over, I'll go visit by myself.

After making up his mind, Xu Yan raised his head and drank the wine in the glass, then poured another glass, stood up and said loudly to Princess Pingyang, "Mother, tonight is the Mid-Autumn Festival, Yan'er is here to wish mother The face of the concubine will stay forever, and the blessing will last forever."

The wine was a little spicy, but it was fragrant and pure after drinking it. Xu Yan drank the wine in the glass, and when he sat down on one side, Xu Yangyi stood up on the other side and said, "It's not just big brother who has filial piety, Yang Yi also has it." A few days ago, Yang Yi made a purse and gave it to her concubine today in a rush to give it to her mother, I hope she will always smile."

While talking, Xu Yangyi winked at the little maid behind her, who understood, and quickly bowed and handed the purse to Princess Pingyang.

Princess Pingyang smiled all over her face, took the purse and looked at it carefully.I saw that the palm-sized lotus is made of brocade and silk with gold and silver threads.The face is embroidered with bright red peonies, and some auspicious clouds and water patterns are drawn on the side, although the stitches are a little rough,

But Princess Pingyang was really happy, so she looked at the pair of children and said repeatedly, "Okay, okay! Yan'er and Yang Yi have a heart, and the mother and concubine are happy."

The following concubines also sent the prepared gifts one after another. Although they were not so precious, they were also a thought for the mistress.Concubine Pingyang nodded secretly, said a few words on the occasion, and finally rewarded some concubines with some jewelry.He even rewarded the servants of the mansion with money.In this way, all the servants in the palace were smiling, and they showed more effort.
