After rebirth, the abstinent prince wants to marry me every day
Chapter 145 Full Moon Wine
"I, a humble servant, greet His Majesty and His Majesty!"
Everyone in the Shui Mansion was kneeling in the side hall at this time, but before Mr. Shui and Mrs. Shui could kneel down, they were supported up by a pair of strong and powerful hands.
"Grandpa and grandma, there's no need to be so polite. I've been neglectful. I've been so busy that I haven't been able to visit you!" Bian Jingsheng helped the two old people up and quickly had someone bring them chairs.
The people kneeling behind him also stood up, and everyone's eyes turned to Zhu Qingan who was standing next to Bian Jingsheng.
In fact, the people in Shui Mansion had no history with Zhu Qing'an, except Shui Tingfeng, but perhaps because of blood relationship, everyone missed Zhu Qing'an very much.
Now, although Zhu Qing'an is married and in charge of the harem, she still has the aura of a girl, which shows that she has been living a good life.
"Your Majesty, the condition is serious!" Old Master Shui and his wife said hurriedly.
Although they were far away in Lingzhou, they were very concerned about their granddaughter. They were very happy to learn that her granddaughter had given birth to a girl and that both mother and daughter were safe.
However, no one in the Water Palace expected that His Majesty would personally send someone to invite them to the palace to attend the little princess's full moon banquet. This was a great honor.
"Grandpa, grandmother, uncle, aunt, and cousin, don't be so reserved!" Zhu Qing'an said with a smile, and everyone naturally felt much more relaxed when they saw her.
Bian Jingsheng watched Zhu Qing'an chatting happily with his relatives, then glanced at his daughter who was a little sleepy, and quietly left with his daughter in his arms.
As soon as Bian Jingsheng left, everyone felt much more relaxed. No matter how kind Bian Jingsheng was, everyone remembered that he was the emperor, so they naturally paid attention to their words and actions.
"Queen..." Old Lady Shui looked at her granddaughter, and her eyes couldn't help but turn red. She was always thinking about her granddaughter, and was afraid that she would not live well, so what would happen to the Queen?
"Grandma, why do you call me like that? Does that mean I'm no longer your granddaughter once my status changes?" Zhu Qing'an said coquettishly, her tone full of dissatisfaction.
"Grandmother is getting old and confused. Miss Qing'an will always be my granddaughter. We have been worried all these days, fearing that you would not live happily in this deep palace. But now seeing His Majesty's attitude, we are relieved!" Old Lady Shui sighed.
"Yes, His Majesty sent a huge ceremony to summon our Shuifu into the palace, and even gave us many valuable things! If His Majesty didn't value you, he wouldn't treat our Shuifu so well!" Uncle Shui Zhou nodded repeatedly.
"Qing'an girl is so good, she deserves your majesty's love!" Second aunt Zeng said proudly.
"Don't worry, everyone. His Majesty treats me very well, and my aunt is taking care of me in the palace. I'm just thinking about you all, so I'll stay in Ancheng for a while longer this time!" Zhu Qing'an greeted them. She really liked her grandparents' family, and she could feel the strong family affection when she was with them.
This kind of family affection has nothing to do with status and is so pure that it makes people addicted.
She believed that even if she was not the queen or the legitimate daughter of Marquis Wen'an, her maternal grandfather's family would not have any grudge against her.
"Okay! As long as His Majesty treats you well!" Old Master Shui nodded repeatedly.
This time, Shuifu came to Ancheng to attend the little princess's full moon banquet and brought generous gifts, a full box of gifts that even Zhu Qingan was surprised.
"Grandpa and grandmother, uncle and aunt, this is too precious and too wasteful!" Zhu Qing'an knew that although the Shui Mansion was very wealthy, they did not act extravagantly. Such an expensive gift must have cost a lot of gold and silver.
"The little princess was born in a golden nest, I hope you don't mind! We don't have much ability!" Zeng said with a smile.
This gift was prepared after everyone discussed it together. It is not only valuable, but also a token of everyone's thoughtfulness. Even though it costs a lot, everyone in the Water Palace is willing to accept it.
When Zhu Qing'an saw everyone from his maternal grandparents' family, he couldn't help but start talking to them.
"Qing'an girl!" Old Madam Shui held Zhu Qing'an's tender hand, her eyes filled with relief and relief. "We have been staying at Marquis Wen'an's mansion these past few days. Marquis Wen'an has been kind enough to treat us without holding grudges, and his wife is a virtuous woman. I can finally put my mind at ease!"
The two old people felt guilty about the ridiculous thing their daughter did. They were afraid that their granddaughter and former son-in-law would be delayed because of their daughter.
But now that they had come to the Marquis Wen'an's Mansion, they saw that everything had not become chaotic because of their daughter. In fact, it had become more orderly because of her departure.
In particular, they learned from their servants how their daughter had resented the people in the Water Palace and how they had neglected her over the years, which made the old couple feel even more guilty.
"My mother is smart and virtuous, and my second sister and third brother are also sensible and capable! Grandpa and grandma don't have to worry!" Zhu Qing'an explained.
These words made Zeng's face smile continuously, and she quickly said, "Yes, Bai Wei is shy and well-behaved. It will be a blessing for our Tingfeng if she can marry him in the future!"
Originally, everyone in the Shui Mansion was worried and disapproved of their son's liking for the second daughter of Marquis Wen'an's Mansion.
Firstly, it was because of the difference in their family backgrounds. It was a great blessing for Shui Shiyu from Shui Mansion to marry into Hou Mansion. How could the second daughter of Hou Mansion be allowed to marry someone of lower status now? Would Hou Mansion agree?
Secondly, because of Shui Shiyu, everyone in the Shui Mansion felt ashamed to face the Wen'an Marquis Mansion, and they also felt that the Wen'an Marquis Mansion would not agree to this marriage.
However, they did not expect that when they personally came to propose marriage, they were prepared to be driven away and scolded. However, everyone in Wen'an Marquis's mansion, from top to bottom, was very polite and respectful, and agreed to the marriage of the two children immediately. This surprised Shui Fu and made him feel ashamed.
"It's my son's blessing, and it's also thanks to the Queen. If it weren't for the Queen's mediation, I wouldn't be able to marry Bai Wei!" Shui Tingfeng said gratefully. He knew that Zhu Qing'an did a lot for the relationship between him and Zhu Baiwei.
"As long as my second cousin can treat my second sister well in the future, that'll be enough! My second cousin and my second sister will get married in half a month, right?" Zhu Qing'an asked with concern.
"Yes, someone was specially asked to calculate the date! Now we are just waiting for Bai Wei to marry us!" Zeng was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. She once thought that it would be difficult for her son to find a wife based on his character, but she didn't expect that he would find such a good daughter-in-law now. How could Zeng not be happy?
"My second cousin is getting married, so what about my eldest cousin?" Zhu Qing'an asked with concern.
At this time, everyone couldn't help laughing after hearing this. Zhu Qingan just felt that something was wrong, and his cousin Shui Jiusi smiled helplessly.
"Reporting to the queen, I have a girl I like!" Shui Jiusi replied.
He was still so dignified, and just sitting there was enough to make people feel that he was a gentleman. Zhu Qing'an had heard that in Lingzhou, there were countless girls who wanted to marry him, but he was very chaste and had not had any concubines in all these years. What's more, he had no confidantes, which was very rare.
"Really? I've never heard anyone mention it. Which girl is it? Has anyone proposed marriage?" Zhu Qing'an became interested. After all, his eldest cousin was already quite old, even two years older than Bian Jingsheng. Generally, men of this age would not only be married, but would also have several children.
It is also because the elders of the Water Palace are open-minded, otherwise they would have intervened long ago.
"No!" Shui Jiusi, who used to be straightforward, felt a little embarrassed at this moment, even his eyes were a little evasive. "I just met that girl, and she doesn't know my feelings yet!"
"This child used to be able to talk openly to anyone he met when he was doing business outside. But now that he has a girl he likes, he has become a little shy! I won't hide it from Your Majesty. You also know the girl Jiusi likes. She is Miss Yang, a very famous female doctor in Ancheng!" Aunt Li said with a smile.
Seeing that her son had a girl he liked, Mrs. Li was happy. She also knew about the story of Miss Li and liked and admired her very much. She liked her very much even before she met her.
"Chaoyan?" Zhu Qing'an was so shocked that her eyes widened. She never expected that her cousin would fall in love with Yang Chaoyan.
Zhu Qing'an has always known about Yang Chaoyan's excellence. Even though he is her cousin, she doesn't think Yang Chaoyan is marrying above her station.
"It's Miss Yang! I heard that Your Majesty and Miss Yang know each other. I wonder if you can help them get together?" Li asked carefully.
Zhu Qingan was a little embarrassed. "It's not that I don't want to, but Chaoyan is different from ordinary women. Her ambition is to save the dying and the wounded, and she is not bound by love affairs between men and women. If my cousin likes Chaoyan, I'm afraid..."
One is her relative and the other is her close friend. Zhu Qing'an should help, but she knows Yang Chaoyan's character and naturally does not want to make things difficult for Yang Chaoyan.
"We all understand that Miss Yang is broad-minded and cares about the suffering common people. This is what I admire most about her. I also know the difficulties your Majesty is facing. I want to pursue Miss Yang slowly on my own!" Shui Jiusi said slowly.
"That's right! He can just chase the girl he likes himself!" Li also smiled and did not feel unhappy or complain about Zhu Qing'an's rejection.
"Then my cousin, you must be prepared. Chaoyan is different from ordinary women. She is not obsessed with love, and she is a doctor! A doctor's job is to save lives and heal the wounded. The patients she needs to see include not only women but also men!" Zhu Qing'an urged.
She didn't want her cousin to disturb Yang Chaoyan just because of a momentary liking for her. After all, men nowadays are prejudiced against women practicing medicine, and many female doctors can only treat women.
"Your Majesty, you underestimate me. I have traveled all over the world and have seen that women can practice martial arts, ride horses and do business. There are even women on the seaside who roll up their trouser legs and go boating to fish. In my mind, women are not limited to taking care of their husbands and children at home!" Shui Jiusi's face was pale, and that was an open-minded attitude.
Shui Jiusi has such an open-minded mind because of his education since childhood and his insights over the years.
Zhu Qing'an listened to his cousin's words and suddenly felt that perhaps there was a possibility between his cousin and Yang Chaoyan.
"Then, I hope that my cousin can achieve his wish!" Zhu Qing'an encouraged. She would not help her cousin, but she would not stop him either.
Matters of the heart are their own business. Yang Chaoyan is her friend, and she respects all her choices the most.
After chatting with everyone for a while, Wangshu came over and said that all the ministers and their families had arrived in the hall, and the empress dowager and others had already taken their seats.
"Let's go!" Zhu Qing'an stood up.
"Greetings to Her Majesty the Queen, may Her Majesty live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years!" Zhu Qing'an followed the people from the Water Palace to the main hall, and only heard the sound of salutes one after another.
Zhu Qing'an raised his hand slightly, and palace servants led everyone in the Water Palace to their seats.
However, the seats arranged for the people in Shuifu today were at the front right, which gave enough face to the people in Shuifu and also acknowledged the status of Shuifu as a royal family.
Before Zhu Qing'an stepped onto the throne, he saw Bian Jingsheng, who was sitting on the dragon throne, had stood up. Ignoring the expressions of the ministers below, he walked straight forward and held Zhu Qing'an's hand.
Zhu Qing'an let Bian Jingsheng lead her to sit on the phoenix chair next to the dragon chair without any change in her expression. Next to it was a brown phoenix chair, on which the queen mother sat, holding Yi Yi in her arms, who was blinking her watery eyes.
"Come, let mother hug you!" Zhu Qing'an said with a smile.
The Queen Mother handed them to Zhu Qing'an one by one, and then said, "This heartless little thing, I have held it for a long time and it never smiled. Now when it sees you, it raises its hands to smile!"
"What the Queen Mother said is biased! Everyone knows that Yi Yi likes you and always likes to smile at you!" Old Lady Bian joked.
As soon as the two old men spoke, the atmosphere in the hall became lively, with compliments coming one after another.
Zhu Qing'an looked down and saw that not only the ministers and their families were there, but also Yang Chaoyan and others were also in the hall.
Seeing Zhu Qing'an's eyes, everyone nodded slightly, and everything was said without words.
Although it was the little princess's full moon banquet, the little princess was still young, and Bian Jingsheng was reluctant to make things difficult for her. He just said some words of blessing, and then personally put the immortality lock on each of them. There was no complicated process.
The little princess stayed in Bian Jingsheng's arms the whole time. Although she was small, she didn't cry at all when she saw so many people below.
Bian Jingsheng held his daughter securely in his arms, and his daughter-loving look made the ministers below somewhat unbelievable. After all, which princess could be so favored?
Bian Jingsheng not only held his daughter in his arms, but also picked up food for Zhu Qingan without any imperial airs at all.
"Your Majesty is delighted to have a princess, but you currently have no princes. Since it is spring, why not hold a selection to expand the royal family for Your Majesty? I'm sure the Queen will be generous!"
After three rounds of drinks, a court official suddenly stood up and reported.
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the palace suddenly froze. Zhu Qing'an swallowed the lotus root in her mouth, her expression displeased. Without waiting for Bian Jingsheng to speak, she scolded him, "How can you judge whether I am magnanimous? Today is the little princess's full moon banquet, and you must be making trouble? A beauty pageant? What beauty? Master Yang's legitimate daughter is still unmarried, and you really want to enter the palace as a concubine!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Lord Yang knelt down immediately, along with his daughter who was dressed in gorgeous clothes.
Zhu Qing'an knew that Lord Yang and his daughter were eyeing the position in the harem. Bian Jingsheng usually handled it, so she didn't need to step in.
But today is her daughter's full moon party, and these people are determined to make trouble. So don't blame me for not giving them face.
"Lord Yang is being disrespectful in front of the palace. Take him away!" Bian Jingsheng ordered.
Bian Jingsheng's indulgent attitude also made those court officials who were eyeing to put their daughters into the harem shudder suddenly.
