Chapter 81: The concubine brushes her face
Qi Zongwen looked at the four girls who walked towards him on the horse, and Xiao Yaya took the lead and saluted, "Your Majesty the Emperor, forgive me, it's not a good sign to get off the horse before the race." ”
"Haha, it doesn't matter. Qi Zongwen said.
"Don't the women of the Central Plains play polo?" Shi Honghua looked at the top of the Minghuang tent, "Can't the women of His Majesty the Emperor play polo?"
"Yes. Qi Zongwen said, "My concubine has gone to change her clothes, and she will come soon." ”
"Is the concubine Niangniang?" Xiao Yaya said with a smile, "This makes me a little nervous, what if I break the Niangniang?"
"His Majesty the Emperor won't blame us. ”
"Your skills are famous, if you don't have two brushes, you don't dare to play. Qi Zongwen smiled and said, "If she accidentally bumps into you, you must not take it to heart." ”
In the tent, the ladies were also talking to each other, "The concubine looks at Wen Weak, do you really want to play polo?"
"What are your family's opinions, are you really going to send your daughter into the palace?" Mrs. Xiao said, "Girls, we haven't brought them into the palace, they don't know the height of the sky, you and I have seen each other, not to mention the concubine, the rest of the mothers are also born with flowers and moons, and they have talents." ”
"Look at them now, they are very proud with their heads up, and when they enter the palace, they must not only bow their heads, but even bend their backs. ”
The atmosphere fell into a subtle silence.
"When you are a girl, you are naturally proud in every way, and when you get married, you can live with your head down. ”
"It's not always like this with whoever you marry. ”
"Speaking of which, I don't want my daughter to marry so far, maybe I may not be able to see each other again until I die. But the man in the family said that there has not been a palace concubine in Northern Xinjiang for decades, if it weren't for this, he would not have been tightly pressed by Xu Zan's house, and there was no way to ask for help. His Majesty's coming to Sanyang Pass is a great opportunity, if you don't send your daughter in this time, where will there be such an opportunity in the future. "Mrs. Huo said,"
The man is hard-hearted, and he is determined to exchange his daughter for a bright future, what can we do. ”
"All four of them are going to be sent in?"
"Not necessarily, you have to take it all when you send it to Your Majesty?" Mrs. Xiao shook her head and said, "Look at their happy looks." "Not yet
As soon as he glanced at His Majesty, his eyes were full of spring.
"Your Majesty is in the prime of life, and he is handsome and chic, and it is normal for the girls to like him. ”
"Hey, what's going on over there?" Mrs. Shi noticed that two young men who bent down to deliver the ball knelt down in front of the emperor, and one of them had his hat knocked to the ground, revealing black hair like a waterfall.
"The little royal pre-dereliction is out of order, and please punish Your Majesty. Alyssa fell to the ground, as she had previously agreed.
"Are you a woman?" Qi Zongwen looked at her hair in shock.
Alyssa exhaled silently before looking up at him, "The small family is poor, and I have no choice but to disguise myself as a man to seek errands, and I ask Your Majesty for forgiveness." ”
Alyssa's skin is snow-white, her eyes are as bright as the morning star, her nose is hanging, and her cherry mouth is small, she looks up at Qi Zongwen, even if the coarse cloth is rotten, it does not reduce the beauty of the country.
Qi Zongwen squinted for a while, "What's your name?"
"My name is Alyssa. ”
"Why didn't I know that as the niece of the head of the Xiyue Relics, Alyssa, a famous beauty in Northern Xinjiang, actually wanted to come to the polo field to pick up balls because of her livelihood. Xiao Yaya sat on the back of the horse and sneered after seeing the human face.
Alyssa blushed, lowered her head, kowtowed to Qi Zongwen like a frightened rabbit, and then got up and ran away.
"Xiyue relics?" Qi Zongwen turned his head to look at Xiao Ye.
"Originally, it was a small ethnic group living next to the Yi people, but it was wiped out, and only about 100 people survived. Xiao Ye said. "It's been decades too. ”
"Now that you have become a submissive citizen of the imperial court, don't mention the matter of the remnants of the people. Qi Zongwen smiled and said, "Obviously, we are not generous, as long as we abide by the law and pay taxes and serve, we are all good subjects." ”
"Your Majesty said yes. Xiao Ye said. He knew in his heart that Xiyue people were right to fight like this.
Huo Mengxuan rode behind Xiao Yaya, "Your Majesty is also fascinated by that little vixen." ”
"Phew. Xiao Yaya said, "If Your Majesty wants to accept her, I will tell my father and brother that I will not enter the palace." I don't share a room with her, and I serve a husband. ”
Xiao Yaya grew up with dignity and dignity, but she was more beautiful with Alyssa when she was sensible, and she was not with her in her heart.
"Mother is here. Han Xing trotted and said, the people present turned their heads to look at the entrance, Qin Yunyi rode a horse into the entrance, she was dressed in a side girl riding costume, and red flowers grew along her milky white chest, pure and fierce, forming a strong contrast and attraction. With her hair tied up in a high bun and a short tassel on her bun, she walked up to the crowd, "I'm too late." ”
Qi Zongwen didn't answer for a moment, Xiao Ye was stunned to see her approaching, and only after a moment did he hide his head and lower his head, not daring to look again.
"How do you wear it?" Qi Zongwen came back to his senses and hurriedly looked behind him, making sure they weren't looking directly at Yun'er before asking. Dressed like this?
"I saw that they looked good, so I wanted to try them too. Qin Yunyi said coquettishly, "Isn't it beautiful?"
"Good looking. Qi Zongwen only felt that his throat was about to burst into flames, it was so beautiful. At this moment, he wanted to say, you go back and change it, but look at Xiao Yaya and them, they are also the same outfit, if they all go back and change, they don't have to play this polo.
"Your Majesty's order is to begin. Qin Yunyi smiled and said, "The color head is mine." ”
Qi Zongwen has no intention of polo at the moment, not only him, but the remaining three men are also tied up because they don't dare to look directly at the concubine, Xiao Yaya and they are more serious, after the women's team won three goals unilaterally, Xiao Yaya said, "Your Majesty go and watch from the sidelines, I'll wait to fight with Niangniang." ”
Qin Yunyi smiled and said, "The little girl is still angry." ”
"They don't have any strength at all, they play too ugly, what's the point of playing polo like this. Xiao Yaya raised her head and said, "Why don't I come to fight against Niangniang and have fun with Niangniang." ”
"Okay. Qin Yunyi smiled and said, "In this case, the previous lottery head does not count, this lottery head is out of the palace, if you win, you can ask for one thing, as long as the palace can give it." ”
"Niangniang has such a big lottery head, we don't have the corresponding lottery head to give. Xian Yiqiu said.
Qin Yunyi smiled, she glanced at these ladies, "In this way, if you lose, you will give your horsewhip to this palace." "Their whips are adorned with colorful ropes and bells, and the bells and whistles are quite beautiful.
Qin Yunyi and Shi Honghua team, Xiao Yaya and Xian Yiqiu team, a gong sounded outside the court, the ball game began, Qin Yunyi urged the horse to act, they do know how to fight, and the skills are also very high immediately, Qin Yunyi rarely has a sense of victory and defeat, and he is very active in stealing and hitting.
Qi Zongwen sat under the tent and stared at her with his eyes only staring at her, looking back at her on the horse, ten miles of spring.
"The concubine is a good means. Mrs. Shi glanced at the venue and said, "Whether the woman who went out of the scene today will enter the palace or not, in Your Majesty's heart, I only remember that she is amazing today." ”
"It's a good look. Mrs. Xiao said, "What is rare is that the scheming methods are not bad, no wonder they have been able to monopolize the Sacred Heart for so many years." ”
"The concubine is also in danger, Your Majesty sees it in her eyes, and the sons and daughters on this occasion also see it in your eyes, the Central Plains people are very stingy, and they don't like their mother-in-law to be looked at by other men. Someone said, "If Your Majesty doesn't like it, the concubine will lift a stone and shoot herself in the foot." ”
When the polo meeting ended, Qin Yunyi went to change his clothes, but he was suddenly hugged from behind and fell forward on the couch
, Qin Yunyi took the hairpin from his hair with his backhand and was about to tie it back, but Qi Zongwen was holding him upright, "It's me." ”
Qin Yunyi was relieved. "Your Majesty is trying to frighten me. ”
"Who else would dare to appear here besides me?" Qi Zongwen said, putting his arm around her waist, "You put a fire in my heart today, and I can't clear my mind anymore, and you have to be responsible for extinguishing the fire." ”
"Your Majesty. Qin Yunyi stretched out his hand to stop him, hurrying, "Go back to the palace again." ”
"Ahh
Back to the palace, where is there still time to return to the palace, Qi Zongwen is like a hairy boy who has suddenly become a flaunt who has just fallen in love, he is embarrassed, and in the end, Qi Zongwen directly used her cloak to carry the messy roll into the car.
Xiao family, Xiao Yaya is saying that if Her Majesty takes a fancy to that Alisa, she will not enter the palace.
"What Alyssa, what does it have to do with her?" asked Mrs. Qin.
"A-Niang didn't know that she went to the polo field dressed like a little girl today, and deliberately showed her face in front of His Majesty the Emperor, and His Majesty looked straight at that time. Xiao Yaya said. "His Majesty the Emperor obviously has the beauty of a concubine, but he is still fascinated by Alyssa. ”
His Majesty the Emperor was not fascinated by me, and this competition was not because she lost.
"Yes, the opportunities we can see, they can also see, Alyssa's beauty, but they can compete. Mrs. Xiao nodded knowingly and said.
"I don't care. Xiao Yaya said, "If I want to be tied to her for the rest of my life and be talked about, I would rather die." ”
"Nonsense. Mrs. Xiao said, "What do you compare to her?" ”
"Chief Han beside Your Majesty has hinted to me that I should count Alyssa and enter Beijing with the show girl from Northern Xinjiang. Xiao Ye said.
"Auntie, I don't want to enter the palace. Xiao Yaya said coquettishly.
"I don't think Yaya's personality is suitable for entering the palace. Xiao Ye said, "There are many people entering the palace in Northern Xinjiang this time, and Yaya's advantage is not obvious. ”
"I don't know, no matter how good the concubine says, she is also a concubine, how can your sister's temperament be suitable. But if your father doesn't agree, it's useless. Mrs. Xiao said.
"General Shen's son, I heard that he is only twenty years old this year, and he has not yet decided on a family. Xiao Ye said, "If A-Niang thinks it is feasible, I will persuade A-Dad." ”
"General Shen?" said Mrs. Xiao, "Mrs. Shen is an excellent upbringing, if she can be your sister's mother-in-law, it is naturally good, but how can you know that the Shen family is willing." ”
"I would say that, naturally with certainty. Xiao Ye said, "General Shen will eventually return to the capital." "So he must leave some men in the north to make sure that his business will not go down the drain, so what stronger relationship is there than in-laws."
"However, Yaya has already shown her face in front of His Majesty, if His Majesty thinks that the woman who is obviously going to be dedicated to him has secretly fallen in love with the courtier, will he not be happy in his heart. "Mrs. Xiao still has concerns.
"Nothing. Xiao Ye said, "I didn't explicitly say that it was to be dedicated to Your Majesty, but only that I would prepare some show girls to enter the palace, and I could be a palace concubine or a maidservant, and according to the face of the Shen family, it would not be difficult for Your Majesty to give his son a marriage." ”
"Very well. ”
"I'll go and tell your father about it. ”
