The singing and dancing that followed were a bit lackluster compared to Ren Jieyu's performance.
The emperor raised his head and looked at Xiu Yun from time to time.
Zhuang Zhao put a new pot of lotus dew on the table, and poured her a cup of white tea.
It smelled fragrant, like tea.
The prince smiled and took a sip of Longquan wine.
Seeing her suffocate, tears came out instantly.
"Hot" she covered her mouth, her eyes were red, and she cried in grievance.
"Okay, let's see if you dare to drink randomly next time."
The prince asked Tan Chen to pour her sobering tea.
After hearing what the prince said, she wanted to have the guts not to drink.
But it's too spicy She picked it up and drank it in a few sips.
The tip of my tongue is numb with pain, At least it dilutes the spiciness.
The prince gave her a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs, "Here, eat this."
Sweet and sour pork ribs are sweet and fragrant, her favorite, but for some reason she always felt that today's piece had a meaty smell.
She turned her head and spat the meat on the veil, "No fishy meat."
The prince was surprised.
The people in the imperial dining room couldn't even cook the sweet and sour pork ribs.
He took a bite.
It was rich, sweet and sour.
No problem.
"Maybe it's because I just drank lotus dew and I'm not used to it yet."
Zhuang Zhao didn't think too deeply about it.
The emperor had to stand up halfway through his sitting time.
No one can let him play freely here, so the average emperor will not sit until the end.
When he passed by the queen, he said a few words and took Ren Jieyu away.
As soon as he left, the queen said, "The next step is a battle of cleverness.
Who is willing to come this year?"
The game of skill is to put something in a dark room and let people touch it.
Whoever touches it first wins.
The girls below are a little eager to try.
If you win the first place, it will be easier to get married.
The last few people who participated were Miss Xu San from the Zhenguo Palace, Miss Zhuang Er from Zhuangjia Village, Miss Wang Wu from Wang Ge’s hometown, and Miss Xie Qi from Xie Ge’s hometown.
All four are concubines.
Even if the legitimate daughters have no real reputation, they will still be asked to marry.
They will not participate in this kind of competition.
The queen took a short jade hairpin from her head and asked Aunt Zheng to put it in the room.
The four girls were blindfolded and let into the house, and then it was up to see whose luck was better.
After a while, someone came out, but it was Zhuang He.
She held the short hairpin in both hands and presented it to Aunt Zheng.
The queen smiled and said, "This is the second daughter of the banker, Mrs.
Zhuang.
I would like to ask her how she raised her granddaughters.
They are all very smart."
Mrs.
Zhuang stood up, walked to the middle, and saluted, "My queen is well."

"Ankang."
The queen asked Aunt Zheng to help Mrs.
Zhuang sit down next to her, and pointed at Zhuang Zhao, "Thanks to you, my granddaughter, you have taken away a lot of worries for me.
This second girl has a family."
What the queen meant was that she wanted to arrange the marriage herself.
Of course Mrs.
Zhuang would be happy to do so.
"Not yet.
If the queen can point out a house for her, it will be her destiny."
Zhuang He suppressed his blush and wanted to say something but didn't dare.
She knew the possible consequences of what she said.
She didn't dare. if If the person pointed out by the Queen is good, she will marry him.
He, Zhuang silently glanced at the slender prince and regarded it as a dream.
The queen said, "I heard that the young master of Qian Shangshu's family is very talented.
He was very helpful when he attacked Beiyi.
He is not married yet."
Mrs.
Qian quickly stood up and said, "Go back to my wife, the dog is not married yet."
Mr.
Qian gained a reputation in the Beiyi War and has a bright future.
What's more, he is young, does not have those old and cunning people in the city, has a straightforward temper, and the emperor thinks highly of him.
This can be called a son-in-law riding a dragon.
Mrs.
Zhuang and Mrs.
Zhuang were very happy.
Only Zhuang lowered his head and said nothing.
Zhuang Zhao secretly thought it was going to be bad.
Mr.
Qian is a martial artist, but Zhuang He likes that kind of handsome young man.
Mrs.
Zhuang had scolded him for reading these words in the book before.
The queen pointed at Mr.
Qian, and Zhuang He was definitely not happy.
Although she didn't dare to refuse, she wouldn't readily agree.
This can be regarded as losing the queen's face.
Sure enough, when everyone was waiting for Zhuang He to kowtow and thank him, Zhuang He froze and said nothing.
The hall gradually became quiet.
Zhuang Zhao smiled and said, "Second sister was so happy that she didn't even remember to thank her."
She stood up and confessed to the queen, "This girl is like this.
She is so happy that she can't speak.
Why do you ask the empress?"
Don’t blame me.”
Concubine Gongshun smiled and said, "This is the first time I've heard of such a person.
Don't be reluctant."
It makes me uncomfortable to hear this.

Mrs.
Zhuang coughed twice, and Zhuang She leaned over in fear, "My maid is indeed so happy that I am so happy, please don't blame me."
The queen doesn't care if she is sincere or fake, she just needs to save her face.
However, his tone softened in the end, "Just step back."
Mrs.
Zhuang apologized to her, "It's my fault that I didn't teach her well.
I'm so grateful to you, I'm so grateful."
Mrs.
Zhuang is several years older than the Queen.
With her low profile, the queen couldn't say anything.
Zhuang Zhao looked towards Mrs.
Zhuang with some worry.
As expected, Mrs.
Zhuang had a cold face and said nothing.
After a while, the queen said, "Okay, it's almost done.
Let's all disperse."
She was the first to leave, followed by the respectful concubine Sun Guifei and others.
The prince said, "I'm going to talk to my grandmother.
The paper and inkstone will stay with you.
After you finish talking to Mrs.
Zhuang and the others, let him come to me."
Zhuang Zhao smiled gratefully at him.
The prince is really considerate of her.
She asked Bai Cha to go to Mrs.
Zhuang's side while she went to the side hall first.
After waiting for a while, Mrs.
Zhuang and the others arrived.
She couldn't hide her excitement and stood up and shouted, "Mother, grandma."
Mrs.
Zhuang's eyes were slightly moist, and she held her in her arms, "I see you have lost weight again.
Is the Crown Princess giving you a hard time?"
Mrs.
Zhuang was born in the Chen family of Luohe, and the Chen family taught that men were not allowed to take concubines.
After she married into the Zhuang family, Mr.
Zhuang respected her, and she had little contact with the private affairs of the back house, so she didn't have so many scruples about what she said.
If it weren't for this, Mrs.
Zhuang wouldn't have to go out of her way to teach Zhuang Zhao herself.
However, Mrs.
Zhuang is still very capable of making decisions on major matters.
"Mom, how could the Crown Princess treat me badly?
Don't think too much."
Zhuang Zhao held her arm and acted coquettishly.
Mrs.
Zhuang snorted, "Why am I imagining that before you entered the palace, the reputation of the Crown Princess for being jealous was spread everywhere.
She can't change her temper as soon as you enter the palace."

Mrs.
Zhuang said, "Okay, stop saying a few words.
Zhao Zhao has something to tell us."
"The Queen reminded me before that the Emperor intends to choose a son-in-law for the third princess.
Brother, haven't you decided on a son-in-law yet?"
Mrs.
Zhuang was shocked when she heard this.
The prince-in-law is not that easy to do.
What's more, she is the sister of King Qi.
"I showed him the second daughter of the Xie family, the one who participated in the draft with you before," Mrs.
Zhuang said, "but it hasn't been decided yet.
I will go to the Xie Mansion to talk to Mrs.
Xie tomorrow.
The earlier you decide, the better.”
To avoid long nights and many dreams.
Zhuang Zhao also meant this.
"Miss Xie has a noble character, but she is a bit cold."
Zhuang Zhao recalled the second girl Xie carefully, and a cold and charming face appeared in his mind.
Such a frosty woman doesn't know if her brother can tolerate it.
"It's okay to be cold-tempered," Mrs.
Zhuang said, "What I'm most afraid of is someone with a warm face and a cold heart.
That's what makes people hard to guard against."
Zhuang Zhao nodded, "That's true."
Then the three of them talked affectionately for a long time.
The white tea was served.
As soon as Zhuang Zhao opened the lid, he felt that the tea had an earthy smell.
"Why does this tea still smell fishy?"
She stopped talking, feeling a little nauseous.
Mrs.
Zhuang took a sip.
The tea had a long and fragrant aroma, but there was no fishy smell.
She thought of something and put down the tea cup excitedly, "Have you come for your change this month?"
Zhuang Zhao was stunned.
Her change of bath was often delayed, so he didn't pay attention.
"Not yet, but mother knows, there is a possibility of delaying it for two or three days."
She touched her belly, her heart began to pound faster, she suppressed her mood and ordered: "Bai Cha, go and ask the imperial doctor to come."
Doctor Yu came very quickly.
Mrs.
Zhuang and Mrs.
Zhuang both stood aside and watched him diagnose the pulse, staring closely at his hand.
Imperial Physician Yu had also seen many big scenes.
The old god took a pulse on the ground and laughed after a while.
"This time I really want to congratulate the owner of the village."
She was finally pregnant, which saved the prince from sending people to harass him all the time.
He's not a gift to Guanyin, so what's the use of looking for him?

This time he was relieved, and Imperial Physician Yu smiled very sincerely.
Mrs.
Zhuang touched the string of Buddhist beads in her hand and couldn't help but put her hands together and shouted "Amitabha."
Mrs.
Zhuang was also overjoyed.
"Thank you so much, Dr.
Yu.
White tea, give him a treat for me."
Zhuang Zhao smiled so much that his eyes curled up, and his crescent moon eyes looked particularly cute.
"Zhiyan, go and tell His Highness."
Zhi Yan ran out excitedly and ran to Kunning Palace, where he happened to be seen by Tan Chen.
"Why is it so urgent?"
Tan Chen looked at him with a look of joy on his brows.
It didn't seem to be a bad thing.
Zhiyan kept an eye on it and said, "It's a good thing.
Please let me know, brother."
"Tell me what happened first.
If it wasn't a big deal, I wouldn't bother to inform you."
In the final analysis, he just wanted to grab the credit.
Zhi Yan refused to say anything and only said, "Brother will report it for me.
If brother refuses, I will go in by myself."
When the prince is happy, he will definitely not punish him.
Tan Chen clicked his tongue and went in to report for him.
When the paper inkstone went in and told Zhuang Zhao that she was pregnant, the prince and the queen were very happy.
"This child is really blessed."
The queen asked Aunt Zheng to go to the storehouse to get something to reward her.
The prince couldn't sit still anymore, confessed his crime to the queen, and strode towards Zhuang Zhao.
Tan Chen trotted behind to keep up.
Ouch, I'm out of breath.
Your Highness, please wait a moment.
Tan Chen was panting and chasing the prince who was walking faster and faster.
I finally understand what it means to feel refreshed during happy events.
Look at the prince's energy, he is quite full of energy.
Zhi Yan walked slowly behind, his face as cold as ice, but actually he was already humming a song in his heart.
God help me
