and son

Where Mei Lin came from, the queen came like being surrounded by stars, wearing exquisite and gorgeous makeup, with a pair of majestic phoenix eyes flowing, faint and tranquil, like light clouds and mist.

Everyone knelt down to salute, only Gillian bent her knees perfunctorily, before the queen gave her order to flatten her body, she quickly went up to meet her, like a lively bird: "Queen, why are you here?"

The queen was not in a hurry to answer A-Jiao's words, but her eyes fell on Meng Chuji first, with a casual indifference.

Subconsciously, Meng Chuji felt a chill down his spine, thinking that he would offend the Queen after just meeting each other?

The queen inadvertently turned her gaze away again, and said: "Go to Qingchen Palace to see your father, and sat with your father for a while, that's why I'm late."

Gillian was immediately unhappy: "Father only has immortality in his heart, and we don't have us. Why do you still go to see him?"

"You girl..." The queen wanted to scold her, but she couldn't say anything, so she pointed her head and stopped, remembering that there were still a group of people kneeling on the ground, she restrained her expression, and raised her hand to everyone, "Get up! "

Meng Chuji and Pei Jing didn't need to kneel and salute. They felt relieved for no reason that the queen was looking away, so they dared to raise their heads and whispered to Pei Jing, "When will this plum feast end?"

Pei Jing was helpless: "This hasn't even started yet, so you're thinking about going back?"

Meng Chuji remained silent.

Pei Jing sighed: "It will take about an hour or so."

Meng Chuji complained endlessly in his heart, and only hoped that the plum feast would start and end soon.

Fortunately, the queen didn't have any other thoughts, and the activity began when the people arrived.

Because there is snow all the year round in Dasui, there are three-quarters of plum trees in the imperial garden, and the long plum grove stretches forward from the entrance of the imperial garden. Hurry up.

Meng Chuji was very lucky. Fortunately, he used a few pieces of pastries on the carriage when he came, otherwise there would be nothing to eat, and he would not be in the mood to look at the scenery while hungry.

The nurse next to the empress walked in front, and said as she walked: "This plum grove was planted by Your Majesty for the Empress, and half of the garden was pulled up. Your majesty's love for your mother is like holding a pearl in your palm and holding a jade in your mouth. To appreciate this plum today is to hope that all the princes and grandchildren will find a good marriage, cherish their wives and love their wives, just like your majesty. My husband loves me..."

The earnest preaching obviously got the queen's will.

All noble queens and grandchildren should be.

Meng Chuji was stunned when he heard it, he bumped Pei Jing's waist, and asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, do you listen to it every year?"

Pei Jing smiled: "Yes, what's wrong?"

Meng Chuji suddenly realized that he almost wanted to grab his hand, no wonder Pei Jing kept his mouth shut but never took concubines, it turned out that he was influenced by the empress!

Being so brainwashed every year, can you not follow the monogamy system in a rigid and pedantic way?

Meng Chuji couldn't hold back and said: "The queen mother is a powerful person!"

Emperor Sui was obsessed with alchemy, and the empress herself was not happy, so she educated the servants hard. I don't know if others taught them well, but Pei Jing must have taught them well.

If it wasn't him who married, if his sister was in good health and lived a long life and married Pei Jing, she would be blessed with endless blessings and happiness.

Good fortune tricks people, good fortune tricks people.

Pei Jing laughed when he heard what Meng Chuji said. The more Meng Chuji thought about it, the more regretful he became, and sighed sadly. The queen who was walking in front noticed the strange movement, and glanced back at them with extremely cold eyes. Meng Chuji shut his mouth instantly.

To be honest, he wasn't even afraid of his father and mother, but somehow he was afraid of the queen from the bottom of his heart, like a mouse seeing a cat.

I heard from his mother before that since ancient times, daughters-in-law have been afraid of their mother-in-law, and that's true.

The plum grove is long and wide, I really want to appreciate it in detail, I’m afraid I won’t be able to finish it in one day, considering that Miss Jiaojiao is tired from walking, the plum blossom viewing is over after two quarters of an hour, and someone has already set it up in the open space banquet.

Before the food was placed on the long table, the gold cup and jade cup were set upside down, neat and pleasing to the eye.

"sit down!"

The queen sits in the main seat, and the others feel that men and women sit separately, arranged according to their status.

Naturally, Meng Chuji sat with Pei Jing.

His side is the female seat, Gillian is the protagonist of the Plum Blossom Banquet tonight, the seat is arranged next to the Queen, arranged according to their status, the one next to him is... Shangguan Ting!

Meng Chuji's eyes lit up, and he was overjoyed. He raised his hand and beckoned Shangguan Ting to come over. Shangguan Ting was also looking at him, and smiled at him gently. Gillian, who caught a glimpse of the queen, stared at him with watery almond eyes, full of anger and warning, and immediately scowled, pretending to be indifferent to Shangguan Ting.

Gillian's complexion didn't change at all. She clearly saw him waving, and she bit her lower lip angrily. When she saw Shangguan Ting sitting next to Meng Chuji, Meng Chuji pretended to talk to Shangguan Ting with a serious attitude, even with both hands. I clenched my fist and was about to go crazy.

However, when she saw that Pei Jing called someone to intervene between Meng Chuji and Shangguan Ting, she burst out laughing.

Ha, as expected of her brother!

This time it was Meng Chuji who got angry, gouged out Pei Jing and said, "What do you mean?"

Pei Jing smiled slightly, and said kindly: "Although Qinghe is the princess, Princess Jin is the wife of Prince Qin, and her seniority is higher than Qinghe, so she should be in front of Qinghe."

As he spoke, he looked at Shang Guanting, his smile subsided, and he said lightly, "Is it Qinghe?"

Shangguan Ting's complexion was ugly, the knuckles of her hand holding the handkerchief were turning white, and she could even squeeze a smile on her face, agreeing softly: "Cousin is right."

In Meng Chuji's opinion, it was Pei Jing's narrow-mindedness targeting Shangguan Ting, and seeing Shangguan Ting's weak and deceitful appearance was even more unfair, but Pei Jing didn't allow him to look at him too much, her eyes signaled the bewildered Princess Jin to step forward, and said, "Quiet." Jing, come, meet Princess Jin."

Concubine Jin was flattered, King Qin was not half as powerful as Shangguan Ting's father, King Zhennan, she had always been a dispensable princess, and Prince Qin had nothing to do with King Zhennan for eight lifetimes, she was not considered to be Shangguan Ting's sister-in-law, she was lucky Caught in Pei Jing's eyes and introduced to the Crown Princess?

What an honor, she immediately called softly and subtly: "Sister."

Concubine Jin blocked Shangguan Ting, Meng Chuji couldn't see it anymore, so he had to turn his gaze back, and looked at Concubine Jin who was frightened and frightened, with a smile on his face, and his heart became more and more unsatisfactory.

There is no end to this domineering duo!

Is it really embarrassing to bully Shangguan Ting, a weak girl?

Facts have proved that Pei Jing was quite embarrassing, talked to Princess Jin for a while, and asked him: "Do you want to make friends?"

Married women, make a ball.

Meng Chuji looked indifferent: "No knot."

Pei Jing said: "Then I will introduce others to you later."

Meng Chuji turned his head and ignored him.

Pei Jing smiled kindly.

Far away from the two of them, Shangguan Ting greedily stared at Pei Jing's side face, as if she couldn't get enough of it. A lady wanted to talk to her, so she shook her shoulders lightly, but she was turned away by the cold pair of eyes. Scared by her eyes, she stood there dumbfounded, and Shangguan Ting didn't try to hide it, she brushed her hand away, and sat still exuding a gloomy aura.

At this time, the queen said: "The banquet is open."

The maids served the dishes in an orderly manner.

The jade plate was full of delicacies, wine and delicacies, and the long table was filled in the blink of an eye. The rich aroma of wine, warm food, and the light and dark aroma of plum blossoms mixed and floated, and the internal organs were all soothed.

Meng Chuji's unhappiness just now was swept away in an instant, and he wished he could move his chopsticks immediately. The few pieces of cakes in his stomach in the morning were not enough to satisfy his hunger. After walking around a long way just now, his stomach was already growling non-stop.

Seeing his eagerness, Pei Jing asked in a low voice, "Are you very hungry?"

Meng Chuji rolled his eyes: "Need to say?"

Pei Jing comforted: "Wait a little longer."

what?

What are you waiting for?

Meng Chuji was restless and anxious, and only listened to the Queen's inquiry: "It's too monotonous to eat like this, why don't you find something interesting, how about eating while having fun?"

There is no reason for the Queen to speak, so it is natural to collectively agree.

The only one who felt bad, Meng Chuji, held his stomach and didn't dare to speak at all.

As a result, a lot of chattering suggestions came out one after another, such as throwing pots to drink wine, Meng Chuji felt a headache when he heard it.

The purpose of the queen's plum appreciation banquet is to show Gillian her husband and son-in-law. This move is also to test the character and talent of these young talents.

Beating the drum to pass the flowers means that one person beats the drum, and the others pass the bouquet. Whoever holds the bouquet when the drum stops will be punished.

"What's so interesting about that?"

Meng Chuji pursed his lips, thinking that this might as well be thrown into the pot.He is starving to death!

Pei Jing took a piece of pastry from the plate at some point, quietly took Meng Chuji's hand, put the pastry in his palm, and then pretended to accidentally touch the chopsticks.

The maid wanted to go forward to pick up the chopsticks, but Pei Jing stopped her and said, "No need."

Meng Chuji had already lowered his body, and while picking up the chopsticks, he took the opportunity to stuff the pastry into his mouth, chewed a few mouthfuls, with pastry crumbs on the corner of his mouth, and looked at Pei Jing with bright eyes.

The corners of Pei Jing's mouth curled up slightly, and he moved closer to him, and said in a voice that could only be heard by the two of them: "Wait a while, so that no one will see it."

Meng Chuji nodded frantically.

Pei Jing wiped his lips, looked at the palace man who stepped back to carry the drum, and said: "Drumming and passing flowers is also played in previous years. Whoever gets the bouquet will write a poem. The empress privately ordered that the bouquet will most likely fall on the opposite table."

Meng Chuji didn't pay attention, just stared at Pei Jing's hand, waiting for him to give him the pastry.

At the other end, Gillian heard that the queen was going to play drums to pass flowers, her face lit up, she got up and said, "I will go too, queen mother."

The queen frowned suspiciously: "What are you going to do?"

A Jiao smiled sweetly: "I... I can't sit still, I will come when I go."

The empress knew well that Gillian had a wild temper, so she had no choice but to agree, and Gillian slipped away with her skirt in her hands. While leaving with the palace servants, she thought: It's time for her dear sister-in-law to perform!

This group of rouge vulgar fans must feel ashamed.

Especially Shangguan Ting!
