Consort, you are not good

Chapter 178 Full Moon State Banquet

"Today's banquet is not a family banquet, but a state banquet. I know that all the lovers must have doubts in their hearts. Sima Qing's family, what do you have to say?"

Sima Biao shook his palm, his heart trembled, I have nothing to say, Your Majesty, anyway, you have made up your mind in your heart, it is useless to remonstrate, the slander is over, and the salute is over.

"My Majesty, today's full moon is a matter of celebration for the little princesses, and all the officials should congratulate them, but I don't know if there is any deep meaning in ordering the neighbors to come to court? I speculate secretly, so I really don’t know.”

Sima Biao, a veteran minister of the three dynasties, is known as an admonishing minister. The ministers next to him should think about it this time.

Tang Mingyan laughed, and touched the hand of the empress next to him, "Master Sima is too modest. The Tang Dynasty lasted for thousands of years, and Lord Sima was an official in the previous dynasty. Do you still remember the rules of the Tang Dynasty?"

Sima Biao's heart beat several times, his lips were pale, and his voice was a little weaker, "I certainly remember."

"Oh?"

Tang Mingyan smiled, "Master Sima, tell me."

"Establishing a reserve is a matter of concern to the country. The eldest son should be the first to be established, and the son... the son..."

Sima Biao wiped the sweat from his forehead, Your Majesty the Emperor, you don't have such fun, how can you force your ministers into prostitution like this.

Tang Mingyan took a sip of tea, "Continue talking."

"I have no daughters to succeed me, so I am the Empress Dowager." Sima Biao knelt down on the ground, "His Royal Highness is only one month old now, and the emperor is in the heyday of Spring and Autumn, so he will definitely have another dragon son in the future, and it will be fine to have a crown prince at that time. "

Tang Mingyan raised his eyebrows, "Master Sima, please, according to your opinion, a woman can also be established as the heir, right?"

Sima Biao was heartbroken, got up and saluted, "Yes."

"Well, a month ago, I got two daughters, and I was very happy. I hereby invite all the ministers to a banquet today, and enjoy the joy with the envoys and princes, and the world."

All the officials bowed their heads to congratulate, "I wish my emperor a long live, and the little princess a thousand years."

Tang Mingyan raised his hand, invited everyone to stand up and said, "Xin'er is my eldest son, he should be made the crown prince, do you have any objections?"

All the ministers were silent for a moment. It is said that the Crown Prince naturally wants to establish a son first, and only a child can be established as a daughter. The emperor is only 20 years old now, and it is when he is young and energetic. How can he insist on making the eldest daughter the Crown Prince.

But the reason is not important, what is important is the current situation, and no matter what the reason is, one is based on the emperor's temperament, since he said it like this, there is no room for change. Last time everyone was thirsty and hungry for three days It has left a heavy shadow, and no one dares to touch its edge at this moment.

Second, the neighbors and foreign countries are all here, and the injustice is a minor matter, while the loss of the country is a major one, and when the queen really gives birth to a dragon son, it will be fine to change the crown prince according to the law.

To be an official, you must know how to balance. After the deathly silence, all the ministers winked at each other and knelt down in unison, "I have no objection, and I would like to invite the eldest daughter Tang Xinsu to be the empress dowager."

Zongzheng Chengluo was taken aback. Seeing Tang Mingyan's confident look, he didn't say anything, bastard, why didn't he make Zongzheng the crown prince? Wouldn't Tang Mingyan be better than Gao Zongzheng in every way? ?snort.

Tang Mingyan nodded warmly in the spring breeze, and held Zongzheng Chengluo's hand, "Yes, order Si Tianjian to hold the canonization ceremony on an auspicious day."

"Yes."

After the big event was finished, Tang Mingyan waved his hand and began a very graceful dance to ease the atmosphere.

Zongzheng Chengluo pinched her palm, winking like silk, but his voice was gnashing his teeth, "Tang, why didn't you tell me in advance?"

Tang Mingyan took her hand with the other hand very gently, and clasped it together to prevent her from making trouble, "I just made a temporary decision."

"Ghosts believe you, you're full of bad water."

Tang Mingyan touched her hand triumphantly, "This is called trickery."

"Hmph, scheming bullshit, be careful to appoint her as the reserve at such an age, what on earth are you thinking?"

Tang Mingyan sighed softly, and his expression became serious, "Did you forget that there is one thing we haven't done?"

Zongzheng Chengluo tightened his hand and held her hand tightly, not caring about the ministers and neighbors below, got up and sat next to her, and sat on the dragon chair with her, "Yan'er, what do you mean? We Can't you come back?"

"I'm not sure, that's why I didn't try my best to do this. I knew my mother was in it, and it would be unfilial if I didn't save her, but it was extremely difficult and dangerous. I was afraid... I was afraid that my life would be in danger."

Zongzheng Chengluo's eyes suddenly felt a little hot, he leaned into her arms, and smiled softly, "So you are also afraid of death."

"I have no fear, but I have you." With a loved one, there is nostalgia, and there is reluctance. I am never afraid of death, but I don't want to keep your life safe and sound.

"But, we have already promised daddy," Zongzheng Chengluo put his arms around her thin waist, "what are you afraid of? Anyway, no matter whether you go to heaven or go to earth, I will be with you."

"Can I... can I go by myself? You stay and take care of Xin'er and Xiaojiu."

In fact, he was still reluctant to ask this question because he was reluctant to let her not be with her, and also reluctant to let her be in danger with her.

"Hiss..." Just as she finished speaking, her waist tightened, and her two jade hands tightly grasped her, "How dare you!"

Zongzheng Chengluo raised his head, his brows were flushed red, but with deep resentment and anger and bitter fortitude, "Do you really think I dare not die for you?"

Tang Mingyan felt a pain in his heart, "Don't talk nonsense."

Zongzheng Chengluo looked at the two dolls held by Jiang Yang, "Children are the continuation of their parents' sages, but without parents, they will still grow up, fall in love with someone, and do what they like to do, but I, can't without you."

"Ah."

Tang Mingyan tilted his head and suddenly choked up.

Zongzheng Chengluo sniffed, let go of her with a smile and hugged her carelessly, "Anyway, I want to be with you anyway, what a small request, do you agree?"

"it is good."

What else can I say?What else do you need to say?

By the time the singing and dancing performances were over, Zongzheng Chengluo had already sat back in his seat and returned to normal.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, my Liao Kingdom is located in the north, and has been blessed with the blessings of the heavens. I am blessed with abundant resources. Today, I present as a congratulatory gift the treasure of the Shang Kingdom, the Tianshan Mountain ink painting. My minister, the Lord of the Liao Dynasty, Yelucheng, wished His Majesty the Emperor long live, and the little princess auspicious and safe. "

"The envoy is flat, I don't know what is so strange about this Tianshan ink painting?" Tang Mingyan raised his hand, took the square wooden box brought by the little eunuch, and placed it on the table.

"His Majesty the Emperor, this Tianshan ink painting is the most precious treasure of the Liao Kingdom. The ink color is pure, condensed but not scattered, gathered but not greasy. Once written, it will not disperse for a long time. Even if it has been thousands of years, it will still be as new."

Tang Mingyan nodded, "It's a strange thing. The Lord of Liao has a heart. If the envoys come to Beijing, you might as well stay a little longer and let me do my best as a landlord."

The envoy of the Liao Kingdom saluted and returned to his seat, "Thank you, His Majesty the Emperor."

Then another member of the foreign tribe stood up, "The Tubo King Lu Dongqing."

Seeing that his eyes were flickering, but his demeanor was much deeper, he paused and bowed, "I wish His Majesty the emperor a happy couple, I wish the empress good health, and I wish the little princesses are safe and happy."

The king of Tubo was imprisoned for a long time, and after another accident, he was physically and mentally exhausted. Half a year ago, he gave the throne to Lu Dongqing and ignored political affairs.

Lu Dongqing raised his head, and his eyes couldn't help falling on the incomparably noble woman on the phoenix chair. She is as noble as before, brighter than before. Now I am the king, but you are the empress. After all, we I have always lost a bit, but I have nothing to do.

Sensing her gaze, Zongzheng Chengluo pursed his lips and frowned slightly. She vaguely remembered that he had saved him with his life that day, but she had no way to repay this kindness, let alone promise it with her body. thought.

Tang Mingyan coughed, took the two children from Jiang Yang, and handed them to Zongzheng Chengluo, "The queen will take care of my two precious daughters, and I love them dearly."

Zongzheng Chengluo looked at her, hugged the child with both hands, but suddenly smiled brightly, and said angrily, "I only lost these two pieces of meat when I was pregnant in October, so I love them more than you."

Tang Mingyan spread her hands innocently and aggrieved. She tried to comfort and take care of her every day, "What did the queen say, I... I also deserve credit, okay?"

"..."

All the ministers covered their faces, and their thoughts turned to another route, but it is not known whether the emperor did it intentionally.

Lu Dongqing's complexion was a little heavy, but he was not too disappointed, "The emperor and the queen are deeply in love with each other, and the harp is in harmony. The little king admires it in his heart. Today, I am sending the map of thousands of years ago to the emperor and queen. I hope that the emperor and queen will sit in the mountains and rivers. The little princesses live their lives in glory."

There was a whispering voice below, and everyone was very surprised. The map of mountains and rivers was rumored to be painted by Qi Anshi, a contemporary calligraphy and painting master at the beginning of the Tang Dynasty. It is worth more than a thousand gold?The new king of Tubo is really willing.

Tang Mingyan squinted his eyes and brought his eyebrows together, Lu Dongqing, Lu Dongqing, are you my emperor for nothing?Come to challenge me?

With a wave of the dragon robe, Tang Mingyan sat quietly, with a self-sufficient attitude, "The king of Tubo is so generous, I am very relieved. Since Tubo has professed a vassal to this dynasty, it is my vassal state. Now I will give you a thousand pieces of silk and satin, a thousand dans of good tea, and night pearls." Hundreds of them, and...a copy of cut black silk, a masterpiece of calligraphy written by the eminent monk Duan Nian hundreds of years ago."

Li Nian, a calligrapher, fell in love with the emperor's daughter bitterly. However, he was sympathetic, and his concubine had no intentions. An eminent monk, and this masterpiece of calligraphy is even more admired by people, and it can be called a unparalleled treasure.

Lu Dongqing held his blood in his chest, he was in a panic, and the veins on the back of his clenched hands were bulging. He thought he could be regarded as a prince and nobleman, with both civil and military skills, but he was a dwarf everywhere, and his head was low, and his anger was overwhelming.

"Xiao Wang, thank you for His Majesty's gift. I am very grateful. It's just that I have been unwell for the past two days. I think it's because I'm not acclimatized. Please return to the country as soon as possible."

Tang Mingyan looked concerned, "Oh? Is the King of Tubo in good health? Come, someone, and ask Xiao Wuji and Doctor Xiao Yu to visit the place where the King of Tubo is staying. Maybe the King of Tubo misses his homeland. Let the king of Tubo go back to the country together, and I will take care of you on the way."

Solving two at a time, wonderful, happy, Tang Mingyan smiled slightly.

Lu Dongqing's face turned blue, and he bowed his head in salute, "Thank you, His Majesty the Emperor, for your kindness, Xiao Wang will take his leave."
