Chapter 64: Rice Grains
Ouyang and Yue were stunned in place, was this rejected Why didn't he come out earlier before, and why did he have such an ambiguous relationship with her.
If you don't love her, why didn't you say it earlier, why didn't you stay away from her and avoid her.
"You're kidding, right? I just need to be with you, I don't care if it's a concubine, even if it's a side concubine, it's enough to stay by your side. I just want to see you every day and nothing else. ”
Ouyang Heyue had given up almost all of her self-esteem, and she had nothing else to ask for but to hope that he wouldn't push her away.
The eagerness in the eyes, the pitiful eyes, and the tears all rolled in the eyes, but they didn't drip again.
"Okay, if you really love me. Then wait for me, wait for the emperor to marry us, I won't let you be a side concubine. His words swept through his ears like a spring breeze, Ouyang Heyue looked at his eyes, tears welled up at once, he loved her, he loved her.
"Okay, I'm willing to wait. Ouyang Heyue couldn't wait to nod her head, happiness came too suddenly, she really thought she was dreaming.
"However, it depends on how Huang Shang arranges it, you are still in the ranks of choosing concubines, don't worry, I won't let him canonize you as a concubine. I'm going to beg him to cross you off the roster. ”
He reached out and took her hand, which was so warm and so soft.
He held her hand as if he were holding a cup, careful not to break it.
Ouyang Heyue put her head close to his shoulder, feeling the warmth of his arm, at that moment she felt that she was happy, as if she had a dependence and a thought in this world.
Under the corridor in the distance, Su Nange hid behind the pillar, quietly watching this scene, and he had never felt lonely in his eyes.
The eunuchs who followed him wanted to go to Su Li and ask them to say hello to the emperor and ask them to say hello to the emperor, but they were stopped by Su Nange.
"Go back to the palace. ”
He only threw down a very indifferent sentence and left without looking back.
"Your Majesty, you ...... see this matter"
Gonggong Chen stood behind the case, figuring out the emperor's thoughts.
The scene just now was seen by the emperor, and in the past, the candidate woman had already been executed.
Ouyang Heyue was on the list of candidates, and when the dust had not yet settled, she was the emperor's woman. The emperor's woman privately taught and accepted with other men, which is a capital crime.
Sunan Ge had a calm face, looking at the folds in his hand, one fold was one for another, but he didn't remember a word in his heart.
He threw the song in his hand and stood up, "King Xuanrui." ”
After Ouyang Heyue and Su Li separated, she was always in a good mood, and she felt that with her relationship with the emperor, the emperor would definitely assign her to Su Li.
"Girl, what happened, you are so happy?"
A little girl with a round face was helping to sort things out at Ouyang Heyue's residence, and when she saw Ouyang Heyue coming back, she happily greeted her.
"You?"
Ouyang Heyue glanced at the very tidy room that had been cleaned up, and then at the round-faced little girl with a rag in her hand, she was sure that she didn't know her.
Although the other candidate ladies are accompanied by maids, she really has absolutely none.
The round-faced little girl stepped forward and blessed Ouyang and Yue, and eagerly introduced herself, "Girl, my name is Mi Li'er, and I was sent by Gonggong Chen to serve the girl." In the future, if the girl has anything to do, just tell me. ”
This sudden favor really made Ouyang Heyue excited for a while, to be honest, she was angry for a while, and she felt very uncomfortable.
Finally someone to talk to.
"Mi Li'er, your name is so funny. ”
Ouyang Heyue reached out and pinched her face, her round face was as cute as a doll. Ouyang and Yue fell in love with her all of a sudden, like good sisters who had known each other for a long time.
"Girl, in a few days, the emperor will personally confirm the roster, and you are not ready to prepare. ”
Mi Li'er had just come back from outside, and she was meeting Liu Zhiruo and Liu Zhiqian holding the rouge gouache that their family sent to the palace, the two of them became more and more beautiful, and their makeup became more and more bright and moving, as if they were determined to win.
Ouyang Heyue was indeed dressing up, but not to be chosen by the emperor, but to see Su Li before the emperor confirmed the roster.
He promised her that he would go to the emperor to intercede, and she wanted to know the result.
If she is lucky, maybe the emperor will allow her to leave the palace immediately.
"If there's anything to prepare, just do whatever you want, it's the same for me anyway. ”
As she spoke, she reached out and picked up the cloak, and Millet quickly took it over and helped her put it on.
"Girl, who are you going to go out to see at this time......? Slaves and maids do not want to be seen by others, and when the time comes, they will cause unnecessary trouble. ”
Chen Xiang was also outside just now, and she was fighting with the daughters of several ministers.
At this time, a small mistake may lead you into the abyss of no return, competing for the position of the concubine, but it is related to whether you will be favored in the future and whether you can become the master of the harem The most important first step.
"It's okay, I'll go see a friend. As soon as she thought of seeing Su Li, Ouyang Heyue's heart was like a fragrant flower, she reached out and pinched it on Millet Li'er's face, "Don't think about it, mother-in-law is like an old mother, obediently wait for me to come back." ”
It was the cold winter wax moon, and the palace was not only preparing for the selection of concubines, but also preparing for the wax sacrifice, whether it was an official or a harem, they were very busy.
There was also a flood in the winter, which was also a rare occurrence in a thousand years, and everything seemed to be piled up.
The cold wind was blowing in the gazebo, and Ouyang Heyue's face was red from the wind, but she was still very happy, and waited in the gazebo for Su Li to come out of it.
But time passed little by little, and the people who retreated from the dynasty had already left, and after waiting for so long, Ouyang and Yue just didn't wait for Su Li.
I can't see anyone coming, could it be that he was left by the emperor for questioning today?
Seeing that noon was about to pass, she was really a little upset in waiting, and she thought about breaking the rules and going to ask Sunange in person.
"Hey, this isn't Miss Satsuki. ”
A small eunuch in the distance walked towards Ouyang Heyue, his face was full of smiles, but he didn't look like he was surprised to see Ouyang Heyue.
"Hello father-in-law. ”
Ouyang Heyue was sure that he didn't know him, but there were many eunuchs in this palace, and none of them could be offended, who knew if he would be in the Queen Mother's palace.
"Oh, it's a cold day, what is the girl doing in this pavilion?" The eunuch glanced around a few times, especially towards the road where the officials would leave when retreating, glanced meaningfully, and then said thoughtfully, "The girl is waiting for someone?"
"Uh......" Ouyang Heyue smiled awkwardly, "No, no, I just panicked and came out to go around." It's almost time, and it's time for me to go back. ”
"Well, yes, don't freeze on this cold day. Ming'er is a concubine personally ordered by the emperor. After the eunuch finished speaking, he let out a long sigh, and there was some pity and helplessness in his voice.
"Does my father-in-law have anything on his mind?"
"No, isn't that a pity for King Rui. He won't be able to attend tomorrow's ceremony. ”
