Song Yuning really couldn't look down on the prince's unenlightened appearance.
He is procrastinating, and Wan'er is conservative and conservative. If no one adds fuel to the fire, the two of them will never be able to speak to each other.
If she really followed these two people's temperaments, I'm afraid her grandson would hug her and they wouldn't be able to get together yet.
Pulling Song Wan over, Song Yuning said, "You might as well help my aunt today to see whose girl is suitable for Qianbai."
For unengaged girls in Beijing, attending palace banquets was the only opportunity to show their faces publicly. However, Emperor Wen Hui was most afraid of causing trouble in previous years and rarely held such banquets.
"You don't know, in the past ten or twenty years, marriages in aristocratic families have become much more difficult."
Song Wan patted Song Yuning's hand gently, signaling the other party to speak more cautiously.
"You, your temperament is suitable for you to find someone more out of the ordinary in the future, otherwise the two of you will be bored to death."
"My aunt joked."
Song Wan smiled, his moist eyes curved into a crescent moon, Song Yuning liked it very much.
"Smile more like this today so that those young boys can know which girl is the most beautiful in Shangjing."
Her cheeks flushed from being teased, Song Wan took Song Yuning's hand and silently begged for mercy.
The aunt and nephew chatted in the palace for a long time before leaving the Changxin Palace to attend the banquet in the Imperial Garden.
Song Wan arrived early, and was taken to Concubine Yun first by Chang Ping. Naturally, he was not with Mrs. Song, Song Yao, Song Nian and others. Now Mrs. Song and her daughter were sitting behind the family members of the first-rank officials, watching Song Wan sitting in the front row.
It's just that Song Wan has a reserved temperament. Although he is in a prominent position, he never looked around after a palace banquet. Naturally, she didn't know that Shen Qianyu, who was sitting under the emperor, could not sit still for a long time, and his eyes were wandering in the palace banquet.
Wan Xiao looked down below and couldn't help laughing.
As soon as his master entered the scene and all the officials knelt down and saluted, he hoped that the person would look up at him. How could he imagine that the legitimate daughter of the Song family was so abiding by the rules and never violated them.
Thinking of this, he turned to look at the three girls beside Mrs. Song.
One looked blushing and glanced at his master from time to time, one was calm and restrained and never raised his head, and there was still a young man who was looking down at the dishes in front of him.
Gazing at Song Xiang's face for a moment, Wan Xiao turned her head, secretly thinking that this girl was the only one who still had a bit of a noble demeanor.
It wasn't just Shen Qianyu who was wandering in the audience. Jiang Xingjian also felt bitter in his heart when he looked at Song Wan, who had a graceful face and smiled from time to time.
The Chengyang Marquis Mansion without Song Wan was no different to him than a cold and uncomfortable prison.
Halfway through the palace banquet, Emperor Wen Hui was in great spirits and rewarded several outstanding ladies, including Song Yao.
After receiving Emperor Wen Hui's reward from the palace maid, she couldn't help but look at Shen Qianyu.
Shen Qianyu was bored and hooked on the jade chopsticks, but his thoughts had already gone to nowhere.
Only Wan Xiao knew that if his master didn't still have some sense, he would have been keeping an eye on Song Wan.
At a palace banquet, everyone has their own thoughts.
After finally waiting for Emperor Wen Hui to leave, Shen Qianyu left first.
"Wan'er, my aunt is also tired. Why don't you accompany her back to Changxin Palace to rest? How about I ask Changping to take you out of the palace in the evening?"
Song Wan nodded and asked Heng Zhi to inform Mrs. Song and then help Song Yuning leave.
"Concubine, you play with Shu'er..."
"Don't disturb mother-in-law."
Jiang Man pushed Shen Qianshu away. Although he could walk on the ground now, it was still not as easy as before. If he walked in a hurry, he would inevitably stumble and fall.
Now that Jiang Man pushed him like this, he fell to the ground.
"you……"
"Xizhang, take good care of the fifth prince."
After whispering a few words, Jiang Man left quickly.
While all the civil and military officials were still in the palace, she still had important things to do.
Now that the crown prince's position is becoming more and more stable, if he doesn't take action, he may lose his chance in the future.
Quickly winking at a palace maid in the distance, Jiang Man quickly disappeared into the imperial garden.
Xi Zhang stepped forward and picked up the fifth prince and sent him back to Yanqing Palace.
Yanqing Palace was not as festive as other palaces today. The entire Yanqing Palace was quiet, and no one knew where they were being transferred.
After Shen Qianshu was sent back to his dormitory, he couldn't help crying in front of Fuxiang.
"Master, please don't cry, I will stay with you."
Fuxiang is not very old, and was about the same age as Shen Qianshu when he first purified himself.
He is a naive and loyal person. Because Jiang Man doesn't like people with complicated minds, Shen Qianshu is surrounded by honest eunuchs like Fuxiang.
He rummaged through the big red cabinet and found a box of rare objects sent by Lin Jiayue, and secretly sent them to Shen Qianshu.
"Master, choose the one you like, and I will play with you."
"I want my mother-in-law to accompany me."
"My queen is busy with things. Wait until tomorrow. My queen will definitely accompany my young master tomorrow."
Shen Qianshu looked at Fuxiang and shed a tear from his lips.
Fuxiang was so anxious that he walked around all over the place. When he saw the wheelbarrow under the bed, he couldn't help but drag it out and try it. He fell down and got up, got up and fell again, teasing Shen Qianshu over and over again.
"Hehehe... it's fun."
After all, the nature of a child, after a while, Shen Qianshu was taken away from his thoughts and went to play with Fuxiang on tiptoe.
"Let's go to the pond and release the boat. I've wanted to release this wooden boat for a long time, but I couldn't get out before."
"Your Highness, we can't go out now. Tomorrow..."
Seeing that Shen Qianshu bent his mouth to cry as soon as he said "Ming'er", Fuxiang said hurriedly: "There are night watchmen outside, we can't get through."
"It doesn't matter, I know the way."
Carrying two well-made three-story wooden boats, Shen Qianshu took Fuxiang and sneaked under the wall courtyard to the lotus pond in Yanqing Palace.
"It really floats."
The two huddled under the small stone bridge, covering their lips and laughing happily.
"Your Highness, it's time to go back."
Fuxiang was frightened and only played with the incense for half a day before he hurried back to the palace.
Shen Qianshu nodded. He also knew that he was not playful, so he bent down to grab the wooden boat in the pool and prepared to leave.
It’s just that other people have short hands, so where can they reach it?
Fang pushed forward and fell into the pool with a pop.
"Your Highness."
Fuxiang broke into a cold sweat and jumped into the pool without thinking.
The five or six-year-old child fell into the pool and quickly disappeared before making any sound. Fuxiang rushed to Shen Qianshu's side and tried his best to pull the child back to the shore.
It's just that he was not very young and had little strength, so he lost strength after struggling in the water for a while.
In desperation, Fuxiang had to give up and swim to the shore alone.
The moon was shining brightly, and Fuxiang saw a small figure floating on the water with shining silver scales.
"Your Majesty the Fifth Prince..."
Fuxiang cried and gritted his teeth, thought for a while and jumped back into the pool.
When the maids of Yanqing Palace discovered that the fifth prince was not in the palace, they were all frightened. Several people did not dare to say anything and were prepared to report the matter to Jiang Man after finding the person.
But Jiang Man didn't know anything. She was waiting for the opportunity to strike, preparing to give Shen Qianyu a head-on blow.
Only by pulling the prince down can her child return to the top of his game.
