44 Chapter 44

Two days later, the Queen Mother remembered that Su Xun didn't come to the palace banquet and didn't see her, so she was a little worried, and wrote a post to ask Xun Jiu, who happened to be in Shoukang Palace, to bring her a beauty pill to the girl.

And when Xun Jiu appeared in Yufu Courtyard with a leisurely face and a palace sticker in his hand, Su Xun was handing in his homework.

Today, she was wearing a pale pink embroidered rose dress, with her hair combed on her head, without any jewelry, and she looked very plain, and now her bright-eyed and bright-toothed face was looking serious, and her jade-white hands were spreading out on the table little by little the peach blossom picture drawn a few days ago - that is, the homework assigned by Mr. Li last time.

In the past seven years, Mr. Li has taught, and it is said that famous teachers produce high apprentices, to her, it is really a waste of this knowledge, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are only learned to the skin, if you want to say that you can still get your hands on it, it may be this painting, but her husband himself painted very well with one hand. And although Mr. Li is a gentle person and usually does not discipline very strictly, if he does not complete this homework well, he will be punished.

So, thinking about it, I can't help but feel a little apprehensive in my heart.

After all the scrolls were unfolded, Su Xun carefully glanced at the female gentleman standing in front of the table with a pair of big eyes, wearing a green robe embroidered with the logo of Xiangshan Academy and a hosta hairpin.

This is Mr. Li, she is about 30 years old this year, her eyebrows and eyes are beautiful, she never has a cold face, she is gentle and gentle, and because of her excellent talent, she has a refined temperament, and she looks like a gentle female gentleman.

Seeing that her expression remained unchanged and she was looking at the painting carefully, Su Xun also withdrew her eyes, ready to wait quietly for Mr. Li's comments.

When he lowered his eyes, he saw Xun Jiu swaying his sleeves and walking in with a big grin.

"Yo, are you appreciating the painting of the Seventh Girl?" Xun Jiu couldn't help but joke when he saw the scene inside. Xun Jiu has lived in Rongguo Gong for a few years, and he often runs to Yufu Courtyard, so he naturally knows Mr. Li, and he also knows how the girl is lazy on weekdays. Xun Jiu smiled on her face, walked up to Mr. Li quickly, and pretended to look at the painting, "It's a peach blossom picture, it's not bad~" As she spoke, she squeezed her eyes at Su Xun again, and said, "It seems that I took you to enjoy the flowers last time, and I really went to the right place." ”

When Su Xun heard this, she couldn't help but roll her eyes, and she didn't have the energy to refute this, she still remembered that two days ago, Xun Jiu drugged the second brother, which caused the second brother to become a big pig's head, and it took a day for the swelling to subside, and the hand was indeed a little heavy.

But thinking like this, her eyes couldn't help but fall on the palace slip she was holding, and she guessed a little bit what Xun Jiu came to say. To be honest, she also wants to enter the palace to see the Seventh Princess, the last palace banquet didn't happen, she was thinking about finding a time to enter the palace, after all, she really hadn't seen the Seventh Princess for a while, and she missed her a little.

But thinking that Mr. Li was still there, Su Xun didn't say anything for a while, and continued to lower his head and act obediently.

Mr. Li is also transparent, I don't know who wrote the palace sticker in Xun Jiu's hand, she smiled and said hello to Xun Jiu, then leaned over and slowly rolled the painting, and said, "Miss Su Qi, I have something to go back to the academy first, and I will also take this painting back to the academy, and I will comment with you when I come to the house in a few days." After finishing speaking, Mr. Li neatly rolled up the painting, then held the painting scroll and left.

Su Xun bowed his head and respectfully sent Mr. Li out of the house, and as soon as he turned around, a red palace sticker was pressed against the door of his head, and Xun Jiu's voice came from the side: "Seventh girl, now pick up and pick up, just follow me into the palace." ”

Xun Jiu has always done things casually, and this time he is so active in doing things is really "the order of the Queen Mother, it is annoying", not to mention that he also received so much silver, if he doesn't bring the little girl into the palace again, I am afraid it will be a little difficult to explain to the Queen Mother.

But Su Xun only made his mother unhappy a few days ago, although he wanted to go very much, he didn't dare to follow Xun Jiu casually, so he took the palace sticker and obediently went to inform Tao first.

When I arrived at Yuxiu Courtyard, I happened to see the sister-in-law Liang in the lobby sitting on the silk couch with her mother doing embroidery work, and the two talked and laughed and got along well.

Liang married into the Rongguo Mansion in the third year, gave birth to a son, after two years, gave birth to a pair of twin boys, now, she is also the mother of three children, but all day for the sons to worry about more than enough, three years ago, the old Rongguo Duke passed the title to the big house, mother-in-law Ning began to let her learn to preside over the house, which is busy every day is a little dizzy, finally got free, and came to Tao to chat.

Liang's skin is white and tender, and his skin is very good in a hibiscus-colored scattered flower Ruyi cloud smoke skirt, although his appearance is not as good as that of Dow on the side, but this young man was not outstanding in appearance, after years of precipitation, there is a little more mature charm, looking at it from a distance, you know that it is everyone from a beautiful background.

Liang's hands are also skillful, Qianqian jade fingers, at this time, she embroidered a picture of mandarin ducks playing in the water vividly, even Tao saw it, and couldn't help but look at it a few more times, and even stopped the embroidery work in his hand, and said with a smile: "Look at this embroidery, if this pair of mandarin ducks embroidered with eyes, I am afraid that it will swim down from the brocade." ”

"Third aunt, don't make fun of others, I haven't embroidered for a long time, and in a few days, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold this embroidery needle." Liang smiled shyly, she embroidered, as if she remembered something, and couldn't help but sigh, "A while ago, I went back to my parents' house and saw Jingshu's cousin's embroidery work, which was called a fine one, which made me look at it breathtaking." ”

"Oh, but is that girl this year?" Tao also has a little impression of Liang Jingshu, knowing that the girl has a gentle temperament, and she will definitely be a good wife in the future, if she can, it is not bad to be her own daughter-in-law, and the two sons are not young, especially the second son, I hope that he will become a relative, marry a good-tempered person, and his temperament can be calmer. Naturally, she also knows that this possibility is a bit small, not to mention that she doesn't want to interfere in the marriage of her two sons, just to say that the Liang family will definitely not marry two daughters into the Rongguo Mansion, after all, if it spreads, some people will gossip.

"Yes, it's that girl, she is really a virtuous and gentle person, and I don't know who will have the blessing to marry her in the future. Liang replied, dropped another stitch, and then raised his eyes to look at Tao, but inadvertently saw the thin figure approaching, and couldn't help but be happy, and said, "If you can marry this, then the blessing is really heavenly." ”

When Tao heard Liang say this, he didn't know who she was talking about, and he followed that gaze, and saw his daughter's pretty but somewhat absent-minded face, frowned slightly, and couldn't help but say: She looks beautiful, but her brain is not very good, and her beauty has become a burden, what kind of blessing can it be, in the future, if you can marry a husband who will hurt people and has no mother-in-law, then it will be reassuring. Whereas...... If she can marry the prince of King Xu as she wishes, it will be regarded as a blessing for this girl.

Su Xun saw that her mother and sister-in-law in the lobby were looking at her, she immediately bent her eyebrows, and shouted as she walked to the two of them, "Mother, sister-in-law in the lobby." ”

Liang answered, and when Tao saw his daughter like this, he knew that she must have something, so he sighed lightly and said, "What's the matter, say it." ”

Su Xun did not hesitate, so he directly lowered his eyes and handed the palace sticker to Tao.

Tao glanced at it, and naturally knew that he couldn't always brush the queen mother's meaning, so he nodded in agreement, but before his daughter withdrew, he instructed Lianwu and Shuili who were following him: "This time, you have to take a good look at the girl, if not, it's not a matter of beating the palm." "The last time Su Xun returned home drunk, Tao was so angry that he punished the two maids on the spot, naturally, this punishment will not be too heavy, but let her daughter know that she has been punished by the people around her, so she can have a memory.

Lianwu and Shuili immediately lowered their heads and said yes when they heard this, as for Su Xun, they pouted helplessly, and muttered in their hearts: I know, I will never do it again.

……

Su Xun followed Xun Jiu into the carriage and walked to the palace, handed over the sign in front of the palace gate, and was about to enter, when he raised his eyes and looked at the sky, but saw a blue butterfly kite floating in the air in the distance.

It should be a little princess in the palace who is playing with a kite, although it has entered early summer, the sun is shining, and the weather is getting hotter, but the wind is high and refreshing today, and it is indeed a good day to fly kites.

Su Xunyao saw this kite, but couldn't help but think of the scene when the seventh princess and the eldest brother played a few years ago. It was Layue at that time, and she instigated the seventh princess to come out to play, but the eldest brother didn't know what to think, but he took a few people to fly kites. But it's cold outside, not to mention, and there is no trace of wind, so I can't fly a kite no matter what, and finally look at the eldest brother's hands are red from the cold, and I have some regrets to send the seventh princess back to the palace, but somehow, soon after getting along, the eldest brother left Kyoto with the third prince to go to Yanzhou to do business, counting the days, and he didn't come back for half a year.

Do you want a daughter-in-law anymore?

Alas, not only that, in the past seven years, even if the two get along, Su Xun has also looked anxious, obviously they like each other, and others feel it, but these two people just don't say it, I don't say it, it's really "The emperor is not in a hurry, the eunuch is in a hurry." ”

But no matter what, the eldest brother is not here at the moment, and she can only rely on her to enter the palace from time to time to accompany the seventh princess.

Su Xun couldn't help pursing his lips, thinking that he would go to Shoukang Palace to see the Queen Mother later, so he went to Fuzhi Palace to find the Seventh Princess.

Fuzhi Palace is the palace where the seventh princess lives, and after she turned thirteen years old, Emperor Jiahe saw that the princess was also older, so he specially arranged a palace for her alone. This palace is also not far from Concubine Ya's Shulian Palace, after all, Concubine Ya has always taken care of the Seventh Princess when she was a child, so arranged, in case something happens to the Seventh Princess, Concubine Ya can take care of it in time.

A few people went to the palace, and halfway through the line, the soldiers divided into two ways.

Xun Jiu went to the Tai Hospital and said that he wanted to get something, so Su Xun went to Shoukang Palace by himself.

And when she entered the inside, Su Xun caught a glimpse of a young man standing upright beside the Queen Mother, and the back of the blue-purple brocade robe was really familiar, so that she recognized it at first sight.

How...... It's Xiao Rui again!

At this moment, Su Xun wanted to turn around and run.
