Chapter 1880 Stop and fight 38
Uh, no, but that's fine, this way the mission can be completed.
First of all, his life was saved, and secondly, Black Tiger Village was cleared. Now he also brought along a future Madam Hou, which should satisfy the body owner.
After Mu Hanqing whined, he glared over angrily. Xi Ning raised an eyebrow at Mu Hanqing. It's none of my business. If you have the ability to persuade your father to go! I put down the car curtains and ignored the handsome man outside. The handsome man's face must be ugly at this time, and he doesn't appreciate sex at all, so he stopped watching.
At the entrance of the palace, men and women will be separated when entering. Even when Xining was sitting in the car, he could feel Mu Hanqing's resentful gaze as if he were looking at his ex-girlfriend who abandoned him.
After all, he is a spoiled prince. In fact, apart from being a bandit, there is nothing wrong with him. She is good-looking, has a matching appearance, and has no scheming. In addition, she has a goddess-like temperament. You would have to be blind to not love her.
After getting off the car, you have to enter alone. All pedestrians and cars will park in the special parking area next to it. Then he followed the palace maid who had already prepared and went to a palace to wait.
When the time came, they entered the main hall one by one according to their status, lined up neatly, and kowtowed to the Queen Mother to celebrate her birthday.
The waiting hall is not far from the main hall, and the seats are arranged in advance according to status. Most of the ladies and gentlemen have arrived and are sitting in corresponding seats drinking tea, chatting and laughing from time to time.
When Xining stepped into the palace, there was a sudden silence. The whispers and soft words disappeared, and everyone looked over.
This is the newly appointed head of Yong'an County by official decree. She is a female bandit. She was banned immediately, but she was also given food for 2,000 households. You must know that the biological daughter of the official family is the most favored princess, and the newly married second daughter, Princess Heshan, only lives in a town of 2,000 households. A bandit leader can actually compete with the princess. Everyone wants to see it and see her make a fool of herself today.
Isn't it just a walk? I have been a queen and a eldest princess. I have never walked any road, and I have never seen any postures. Tsk!
All the noble ladies wearing Qingluo Zhai clothes and flower hairpin crowns saw a woman walking in slowly with her hands on her belly, her head held high and her chest held high, without squinting.
She moved lightly, but every step was like a rock. Her style was like that of a queen, and she couldn't find a single fault.
Look again, the childish face is still beautiful, showing majesty, and a pair of bright eyes are shining.
When he reached her seat, Xining slowly turned around and sat down steadily. The seat was not full, but only two-thirds full.
"Master Yong'an County, please rest first. When the official comes, we will follow you into the palace to celebrate your birthday." The palace maid put her hands on her belly, bowed slightly, lowered her head and held her breast in her chest, and spoke softly.
"Thank you, Madam." She nodded slightly to express her gratitude. Neither humble nor arrogant, neither arrogant nor arrogant, but showing an indescribable nobility.
The palace maid squatted slightly, took two steps back after saluting, and then turned and left.
Xining only glanced slightly to get a rough idea of where she was sitting.
About 70% to 80% of the other positions are already occupied. These are not the concubines. The concubines should be somewhere else. How can the emperor's woman meet guests easily? Here are all the ladies of princes and noble ladies. In addition to the princess, the concubine, and the marquis, there are the princess and the county head. As for the legitimate daughter of the Hou family, she was not included in the invitation at all.
If Mu Hanqing wanted to choose, he could only choose among the princesses and county owners. Men and women are separated again, and can only be seen from a distance during birthday celebrations and palace banquets. How can one choose? This is a lifelong event. I silently light a candle for Mu Hanqing,
What surprised her was that she was sitting relatively forward. Looking at the grades of the clothes in front and the clothes behind her, she actually sat first in the same grade.
Not to mention her, judging from the doubts in other people's eyes, they were also surprised.
It's not good to keep staring at others. Even if they were staring at her, she turned her gaze to the center of the hall. In the center of the hall, there are two maids ordering tea. Brushing requires strength of the wrist. There are many nobles here this time. Brushing too much will make the hands sore, resulting in poor tea. So every time three bowls are produced, switch to two people, take a short rest, and then continue after three rounds. The hall was filled with the fragrance of tea, mixed with the fragrance of incense and rouge from the noble lady.
A green tea bowl was brought to the coffee table next to him: "Please have some tea, Lord County."
At this time, tea is not meant to be drunk, but "eated" or "used".
She didn't like this matcha-like thing very much. At this time, the tea ceremony of the Great Chrysanthemum Dynasty also emerged and continued into modern times. It was not until the future technological plane entered the museum.
But currently only common people drink loose tea, and as a noble, they have to drink this stuff.
Xining picked up the tea bowl, first smelled and then looked at the white uniform foam on it, then held the cup in one hand and covered it with his sleeve, pretending to take a sip. After putting down his sleeve, he admired the clear blue tea bowl with no pattern, and smiled slightly. He said: "Good tea, good porcelain." Then he put the bowl back on the table.
The palace maid next to her smiled and bowed her head before retreating.
The ladies in the other seats looked at each other. Although their expressions were as calm as water, there were still ripples and even undercurrents in the water.
This action proved to be a sign of etiquette. I originally thought that I would hold the tea bowl and drink directly, then put it on the table after eating. I wanted to see the roughness of this bandit, but I didn't look at it.
On the side, Mrs. Hou, who was wearing nine embroidered Zhai clothes and nine hairpins and nine precious hairpins on her head, spoke up and said: "Everyone said that the Lord of Yong'an County is like this. Today he seems to be stable, generous and precious. This shows that the rumors are false."
She is wearing eight flower hairpins and eight embroidered zhai, which are the second-grade court clothes.
So he slowly stood up, squatted slightly and saluted: "This lady is so complimentary, may I ask how you call her."
A lady who was close to him responded: "This is Madam Jin Xianghou." Naturally, others said it was better, and this lady also wanted to please her.
Xining turned to the lady and gave the same slight salute: "Thank you, madam, for your advice."
Then he nodded to Madam Jinxianghou: "Mrs. Jinxianghou."
"Good boy, sit down, why are you standing?" Mrs. Jin Xianghou smiled. She seemed to be in her early twenties, but wrinkles appeared at the corners of her eyes from time to time. No amount of skin care supplements can stop the passage of time.
He looks gentle, but with sharp eyes, he reveals a bit of sophistication that cannot be hidden.
Mrs. Jin Xianghou also came prepared, mainly because her son met Zhao Fuling by chance and talked about it during dinner after returning. It is said that the county owner is quite interesting and good-looking.
It seems unintentional, but the son knows better than his mother. The son has never talked about any wife. This time he went to Beijing to meet her once, and he put it on his lips. It obviously meant something. Later, when I inquired about it, I was told that I was married to Prince Zhongyong, but His Majesty did not order the marriage, yet he gave me such a large reward, which is very interesting.
So Zhao Fuling looked up and down a lot from the moment she came in. I find this woman even more interesting, no wonder her son talks about her.
