Chapter 333 Double Ninth Festival

Yan Yinyao and her daughter stayed in the palace for ten days before leaving the palace and returning to the Jin Palace to pack their things.

After five days, it will be auspicious and it is time to move into the house.

The mother and daughter took their confidants and moved into the large house awarded to her by Emperor Xuanzhi.

The three giants in the palace all gave gifts to show to each government that even though County Princess Yijia did not live in the Jin Palace, she still enjoyed the protection of the palace.

At the end of this month, some of King Qing's followers executed him, and Emperor Xuanzhi, who had not adjusted his court personnel, purged a group of people.

Several officials who were secretly involved with King Qing but were not exposed were dismissed.

Emperor Xuanzhi's precise dismissals made some officials murmur, "How did your Majesty know that they were also members of Prince Qing?"

"There is also a secret line from His Majesty in the court."

After this incident, Emperor Xuanzhi's prestige increased even more.

The dead people were removed and talented people were selected to take charge.

The government and the public have been reorganized, and many of the remaining ills have been corrected.

Of course, the relationship between North Korea and China is complicated, and it is still difficult to completely eliminate the existing shortcomings.

But Emperor Xuanzhi was confident, "Without King Qing standing in the way, I will surely make Great Qin more prosperous."

"Your Majesty will be a wise king." Jiang Changning complimented with a smile.

Emperor Xuanzhi smiled and said: "Ning Ning must be a virtuous queen."

"I am afraid that I will be a jealous queen in the history books." Jiang Changning was self-aware and said deliberately.

Emperor Xuanzhi hugged her and said, "That's what I doted on."

Jiang Changning raised his eyebrows, did he mean that he was willing to let her become the jealous queen?

The couple talked about the court affairs for a while, and Emperor Xuanzhi went to the Qinzheng Hall to handle the memorial.

Jiang Changning asked the palace maid to prepare water to bathe his two sons.

The days passed peacefully like this, and in a blink of an eye it was the ninth day of September, the Double Ninth Festival.

This morning, Xiaobai showed off and memorized a poem about the Double Ninth Festival to the Queen Mother.

"Being a stranger in a foreign land, I miss my family members even more during the festive season. I know from afar that my brothers have climbed to a high place, and there is only one less person planted with dogwood trees."

Jiang Changning taught him to recite this poem because it was the Double Ninth Festival poem she was most familiar with, so she didn't think much about it.

However, Emperor Xuanzhi, who heard his son reciting this poem, looked at her with a touch of distress.

At night, when she was sleeping, Emperor Xuanzhi hugged her and said, "Wait a few years and accompany me on a tour to the south."

"Okay." Jiang Changning replied casually.

"We will go to Hangzhou then."

Jiang Changning was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Hangzhou has many beautiful scenery."

"We still have to go to worship my father-in-law and mother-in-law." Emperor Xuanzhi whispered in her ear.

Jiang Changning turned around in surprise, her pink lips falling on his cheek.

"Ning Ning thanked me so much, I'm very happy, but the kiss was in the wrong place." Emperor Xuan Zhi smiled and closed her mouth.

He didn't allow her to deny it, and eagerly brought her a hot night, so that she wouldn't be too sad because she missed her deceased parents.

The next day, Jiang Changning failed to sleep in, so Mr. Pu and others came over to say hello.

Seeing the empress's charming appearance as if she was helpless by a servant, Mrs. Zhao was filled with hatred and jealousy. In the past, concubines in the palace did not have much success, but it was different now.

When the prince becomes the emperor, the direct prince can sit in that position, and the concubine prince can also sit in that position.

Mrs. Zhao still wanted to be the Queen Mother because her mother was more valuable than her son.

"Your Majesty, I have something to say, and I won't be happy if I don't say it."

Jiang Changning turned to look at her, "Whatever you want to say, just say it."

"Your Majesty, you are fat from eating alone. You have eaten enough meat, so you should give us some soup." said Zhao.

"If I remember correctly, I have five kilograms of meat every day. Why did the imperial kitchen deduct that from you? Are you eating vegetarian food these days?" Jiang Changning pretended not to understand what she meant.

Mrs. Pu covered her mouth and smiled and said: "Sister Zhao, you are becoming more mellow. It's better to be vegetarian."

"I am plump, unlike my sister who is skinny and skinny. I almost look like a loser." Ms. Zhao retorted back unceremoniously.

"Hey, you are indistinguishably fat and swollen, not plump. Look at your waist, there are circles and circles of flesh." Mrs. Pu said unceremoniously.

The two started bickering in front of Jiang Changning.

Jiang Changning didn't sleep enough and was a little dizzy. The quarrel between them made her head dizzy even more. She raised her hand and rubbed her forehead, "That's enough. Shut up. If you want to quarrel, go out and quarrel."

Mrs. Zhao and Ms. Pu were silent at the same time, looking at Jiang Changning uneasily, "Mother."

"Mrs. Zhao wants to eat meat. It's simple. From now on, let the imperial kitchen give you ten kilograms of meat per day alone. I'll make sure you eat enough."

Mrs. Pu pursed her lips and smiled, "Sister Zhao, my empress treats you so well, why don't you thank me quickly?"

Mrs. Zhao glared at Mr. Pu, Jiang Changning's face darkened slightly, and he snorted softly, showing off his anger.

"Mother, you know that the meat I am talking about is not meat for eating." Mrs. Zhao was unwilling to give up and worked hard to get the chance to sleep with her.

"Is your Majesty a piece of meat?" Jiang Changning chuckled, "You are really courageous."

Mrs. Pu chuckled and said: "My queen is kind-hearted and helps her get over the words, but she still wants to die. My queen, as the saying goes, good words can't persuade a damned person. If you don't show mercy, you will die."

Jiang Changning's eyes moved slightly, "You are right, Zhao."

Mrs. Zhao came to her senses, knelt down and said, "Mother, I know that I have made a mistake. I beg you to spare me this time."

"For your first offense, I will give you a small punishment but a big punishment. You will be banned for a month and copy the palace rules a hundred times."

"Thank you for your grace." Mrs. Zhao thanked her with her mouth, but secretly hated her in her heart.

"Okay, let's go back to your palace and rest." Jiang Changning saw them impatiently.

After sending these concubines away, Jiang Changning yawned and walked to the bedroom, "I'm going to take a nap."

After entering the palace, although you have a noble status, you are trapped in the four palace walls all day long, which is actually quite boring.

After getting up from a nap, he learned that his two sons had been taken to Ciren Palace by someone sent by the Queen Mother. Jiang Changning lay listlessly on the imperial concubine's bed, "Doing nothing all day long."

Seeing this, Fangju smiled and said: "My dear, the chrysanthemums in the imperial garden are blooming just right. Why don't you call some ladies into the palace to accompany you to enjoy the flowers?"

"No." Jiang Changning was not interested in socializing with those concubines.

Socializing with them is more tiring than dealing with palace affairs.

"Your Majesty, you are the queen now. If you never call your wife, they will be uneasy." Aunt Feng came in and advised.

Jiang Changning listened to what Nanny Feng said, "Okay, in three days' time we will summon the third-grade or above married women to the palace to attend the chrysanthemum appreciation banquet."

The emperor had to entertain courtiers, and she also had to have a good relationship with her concubines. It was impossible not to call her.

"Slave, please let the female officer announce the decree." Xiulan said immediately.

"Wait a minute." Jiang Changning smiled, "If you have a daughter at home, you can also enter the palace together."

Xiulan was stunned for a moment, "Mother, what do you want to do?"

"Do as I say." Jiang Changning smiled meaningfully without explaining.

"Okay." Xiulan turned around to find the female officer.

There was no banquet in the palace during the Mid-Autumn Festival or the Double Ninth Festival. Who would dare not miss Jiang Changning's first banquet?

As long as the married woman was not ill and could not afford to get pregnant, she would wear court clothes and enter the palace according to the etiquette.
