Since they are all worn by the Qing Dynasty, you might as well be bold and choose Kangxi!
Chapter 456: All parties reacted with a gasp
"Tsk tsk tsk, look at today's full moon banquet, it is really grand and magnificent, the entire Jiaotai Hall is full of seats, the tables are set up in the square, I have participated in other princes' full moon banquets before, and they are completely incomparable to today's, he is worthy of being the fifteenth prince born to Imperial Concubine Xian."
The ladies who arrived first had smiles on their faces but were whispering to each other in private.
"What Imperial Consort Xian? From now on, our Qing Dynasty may once again welcome a queen mother!"
"Look at my mouth, I really deserve a beating. You are right. After today, Imperial Noble Consort Xian will be the Empress, and the fifteenth prince she gave birth to is also a legitimate son. The Emperor is so happy to have a legitimate son, no wonder he issued a general amnesty."
"Ahem, don't talk about the royal family's affairs. Those are just rumors. They may not be true. We can't just believe everything we hear."
The person who was speaking said this, but his eyes were winking at the women who were talking and towards Mrs. Hesheli's table.
Several people looked in the direction of the sight and immediately shut their mouths. If the Fifteenth Prince became the legitimate son, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would not be the only legitimate son.
Coupled with the corruption incident in the Imperial Household Department that caused a stir during the Spring Festival, many of the Hesheli clan members in the court were implicated.
And at this critical juncture, the emperor held a grand full-month banquet for the fifteenth prince, prepared to grant amnesty to the whole country, and also wanted to crown a queen. It really makes people wonder whether the emperor loves the fifteenth prince so much that he wants to build momentum for the fifteenth prince and make the child of his beloved woman the crown prince.
This thought filled everyone's mind, and as a result, the situation of the Crown Prince's maternal family, the Hesheli family, became delicate.
"Mother, the Emperor will really..."
The daughter-in-law of the eldest wife in the Hesheli Mansion noticed the vague gazes around her and could no longer resist the urge to ask her mother-in-law.
Mrs. Hesheli was aware of everyone's gazes. She was angry and helpless. Unlike others who were just guessing the truth of the news from the Imperial Household Department, they had connections in the Imperial Household Department, so they knew that the news was true.
The Emperor really wanted to grant amnesty to the entire nation at the fifteenth prince's full-month banquet, and he really asked the Imperial Household Department to prepare court robes for the Empress in the size of Imperial Consort Xian, as well as gold inscriptions, a golden book, and a golden seal, and all the arrangements for the Empress's title were also true.
In short, if the Emperor really wants to promote Noble Consort Xian to be the Empress, the Fifteenth Prince will become the Emperor's legitimate son, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will no longer be the only legitimate son.
Combined with the emperor's current attitude, once Noble Consort Xian is canonized as empress, the position of the crown prince will be unstable sooner or later. The emperor has really been carried away.
However, no matter how anxious, worried and frightened they were in their hearts, they could not show it outside. Mrs. Hesheli immediately scolded her daughter-in-law in a low voice:
"Shut up, this is a royal matter, we are not allowed to make irresponsible comments."
The eldest daughter-in-law of the Hesheli Mansion reacted immediately after hearing this and quickly shut her mouth, but the handkerchief in her hand was clenched into a knot.
Not far from Lady Hesheli, Shi Mu and Shi Fu's seats were moved to this area. Even though Shi Mu tried to restrain herself, her face was almost smiling like a flower.
She got the exact news about her daughter: the emperor was really going to enthrone her daughter as queen, and she would really become the emperor's mother-in-law. Until now, she felt like she was dreaming.
Although Father Shi was better than Mother Shi, he also smiled until his eyes narrowed. The people sitting around them all bowed to him and congratulated him:
"Congratulations, Master Shi, on the birth of your precious grandson. Your family has truly produced a golden phoenix, soaring into the sky. I congratulate you in advance and hope you will take good care of me in the future."
Father Shi was very proud, but he stroked his beard and smiled modestly.
"You're kidding. Whether or not it's the Golden Phoenix, it all depends on the emperor's favor. As subjects, we will obey the emperor's wishes in everything."
At this time, the concubines entered the room and everyone quickly stood up and saluted.
Concubine Hui looked in the direction of the ladies and courtiers, and immediately noticed the location of Shi's father and mother. She tightened her hand holding the handkerchief, and looked at Concubine Xi who was following closely, and whispered:
"It's really lively. Come to think of it, the last full moon banquet this lively was the one held by the Crown Prince. Look at Lord Shi and Madam Shi, who have been seated in the first row. They are all smiling. I think when the auspicious time comes and Imperial Concubine Xian and the Fifteenth Prince show up, they will definitely be even happier. What do you think, Concubine Xi?"
Concubine Xi followed Concubine Hui's line of sight, her eyes deepened imperceptibly, but she smiled and said:
"Lord Shi and Madam Shi are the fifteenth prince's mafā, so they must be very happy. Although the first prince's full moon banquet was not as good as this one, Lord Ulanara and Madam were also very happy."
When Concubine Hui heard this, her expression remained unchanged, but her heart turned cold. The full-month banquet for her eldest prince was not as lively as this one, but he was the emperor's eldest son, the one and only. On the contrary, it would be the crown prince, after the fifteenth prince became the legitimate son, she would see whether the crown prince could still hold on to the throne.
On the other hand, even though Concubine Xi veiled Concubine Hui in return, she felt heavy-hearted when she saw the grand occasion of the full moon banquet.
As she expected, after New Year's Eve, the emperor started to get angry with the Hesheli family. In fact, he was angry from the beginning, but she was not too worried. No matter how angry the emperor was, he would always consider the prince's face and would not really hurt the Hesheli family.
But now the Emperor actually wants to enthrone Consort Xian as the Empress, and will also grant amnesty to the entire country at the Fifteenth Prince's full moon banquet. She is not sure what the Emperor will do.
After the concubines were seated, the Crown Prince led a group of princes into the room. He had a smile on his face, but it was hard to tell what he meant. However, the eldest prince behind him whispered:
"Tsk tsk tsk, second brother, look at the people inside and outside the palace, it's really grand. I heard that it's no less grand than the full moon banquet you held back then. It seems that the Emperor really likes you, the fifteenth brother!"
The Crown Prince quietly clenched one hand behind his back. He was the legitimate son of the Empress Dowager, so he could have such a grand full-moon banquet. But his fifteenth brother was not a legitimate son yet, so the Emperor arranged it like this and put him in such a grand manner.
His heart was in a mess, and he could only say:
"My fifteenth brother was just born, and his third-day baptism ceremony was not properly performed. Now that it is the full-month banquet, it is only natural that the Emperor Father should pay more attention to it."
The eldest prince looked at the prince and sneered secretly, "He is still pretending. He treats him as someone who doesn't understand him. Just wait and see how he can act arrogantly in front of him in the future just because he is the legitimate son."
The Third Prince and his companions who followed closely behind him all had smiles on their faces, but no one knew what they were thinking. Soon the Empress Dowager also arrived, so almost everyone was present, leaving only Shi Nanxi, Kangxi and today's main character, the Fifteenth Prince.
Soon, there was a chant outside the door:
"The Emperor has arrived, Imperial Concubine Xian has arrived, and the Fifteenth Prince has arrived."
Shi Nanxi followed Kangxi half a step away, and the two of them entered the door together. One step behind them, Nanny Yang was holding the fifteenth prince Yinyi.
The group walked past the crowd and headed to the front. The Queen Mother at the front was smiling. She knew the inside story. Compared to the others who were worried and fearful, she was happy from the bottom of her heart. Before the three of them came forward, she waved in the direction of Yin Yi and said with a smile:
"Hurry, hurry, bring Yinyi here for me to see. I have been thinking about him day and night for the past month. I just want to see our Yinyi."
Shi Nanxi knew that Kangxi had told the Empress Dowager about her decision, so she was not surprised by the Empress Dowager's attitude and her face was full of smiles.
Kangxi also smiled with his eyes. He turned around and took Yin Yi from Nanny Yang's arms, then stepped forward and held him in front of the Empress Dowager.
"Look, Madam Queen, this is Yin Yi."
Seeing this scene, the atmosphere fell silent for a moment, and everyone below gasped in unison.
