080: Enter the palace

readx;

After staying in Tianxianglou for half an hour, Ling'er had a round stomach and yelled that her stomach was uncomfortable, so Lou Yueqing had to take her for a walk by Gouyue Lake to eat. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

The lake is very beautiful, in Chujing, it can be called a must, I heard that there are more than 20 days is the Qiqiao Festival, the Qiqiao Festival is a very lively festival in Chu State, every Qiqiao Festival, the street is the most lively, Gouyue Lake is the most lively place, she has heard of it before, has not been here, this year I want to see, how lively is this.

There is a pavilion by the lake, and Lou Yueqing sat in the pavilion, watching Ling'er rubbing on the lakeside and looking at it, looking happy.

There were no people here, except for a few boats floating on the lake, and there was no one around, but it was also clean.

Mo Li stood quietly beside her.

Lou Yueqing glanced at the past and was speechless.

"What are you doing, sit down!"

Mo Li touched the tip of his nose and really sat down.

With a satisfied smile, Lou Yueqing looked at the little figure she was having fun with, and asked with her chin propped up, "You said that this little girl has been following me since then, okay?"

Actually, that's really good.

Raising her by your side, protecting her, and spoiling her is like raising a daughter, and when she grows up in the future, it will be good to watch her get married

She doesn't reject the idea either.

Although this little girl is sometimes very noisy, in her quiet days, having such a child by her side is actually not a good thing, at least for her, she likes it very much!

Mo Li looked at her and raised his eyebrows, "Master, don't forget, people are people with fathers!"

Dead mother and father!

Just thinking about pitting other people's little girls, it's not kind!

Lou Yueqing sighed lightly, but she was silent.

Also, Ling'er is not fatherless and motherless, she also has a father, although her father may not know about her existence, but Lou Yueqing knows in her heart that even if her life is unharmed and she has no worries about food and clothing, she can't fill this gap.

Isn't she?

Mo Li said again, "But the master can keep her by his side for a few years, and he can send her away when she is older!"

She could see that Lou Yueqing was very happy that this child was by her side, since she liked this child so much, it didn't matter if she stayed by her side for a few years, and when she left Chu State, she would help Ling'er find her father.

Lou Yueqing smiled lowly and said quietly, "It's been a long time, how can you be willing?"

Mo Li pursed his lips and said nothing.

Yes, people are not plants and trees, and if you have been with this child for a long time, will you be willing to do it?

Seeing Ling'er lying over there and not knowing what she was messing with, Lou Yueqing was afraid that she would run into something unclean, so she hurriedly stood up and walked over.

A boat was slowly approaching the shore on the lake.

Picking up the child, staring at Ling'er with muddy hands, and a few pieces of withered grass on the tip of her nose, and some mud on her face, she looked dirty, Lou Yueqing's whole person was not good.

It's a shame that this girl still wants to lie down with a look of unhappiness.

Lou Yueqing saw that her clothes were dirty, so naturally she wouldn't let her make trouble anymore.

Who knew that the little girl was screaming excitedly.

"Auntie, there are so many little bugs・・・・・・"

Lou Yueqing glanced down in the direction of her finger.

Lou Yueqing: ・・・・・・

Ants move!

In the crevice of the lake, a nest of ants is bustling moving, it is estimated that this girl is curious to make trouble, and an ant road is being stirred up in a mess.

"Auntie, should we take it back and raise it・・・・・・

Tilting his head, he looked at Lou Yueqing with a look of hope, his pupils as bright as starlight were pure and innocent.

Lou Yueqing's mind was blank for a while, and she looked at the little girl very uncertainly, "Catch ・・・・・ catch and raise it?"

"That's right!"

You still dare to nod

The corners of Lou Yueqing's mouth twitched.

His temples jumped wildly, and he rubbed his brain.

"Let's go home・・・・・・"

Seeing that his body was covered with mud, there were a lot of stains on his hands and face, probably because he had just scratched his head, and there were a lot of stains on his hair, and he looked like a little beggar.

When Ling'er heard this, the two eyebrows were twisted, and the caterpillar died, and she looked at Lou Yueqing unhappily, "Don't, it's not fun at home!"

She has been bored at home for many days, and when her aunt is not at home, she can't come out, and now that she finally comes out, she doesn't want to go back.

Lou Yueqing didn't speak.

Just looked at her with a strained face.

Ling'er was looked at like this, and her whole body wilted.

At this time, Mo Li came over and whispered in her ear, "Master, someone is coming!"

Hearing this, Lou Yueqing turned around, and sure enough, she saw a boat that was still on the lake just now approaching this side, stopped on the shore, and a person came down, no, it should be a woman and a few maids.

Only then did she notice that there was a big block character engraved on the hull of the ship - Qin!

The Qin family's ship?

The woman in orange who was walking over there was not Qin Youxiang's daughter, Qin Linglong?

Lou Yueqing stood quietly in place, watching Qin Linglong come over.

Qin Linglong quickly walked up to her and bowed with a smile, "I've seen the county lord!"

Lou Yueqing looked at the woman in front of her, wearing an orange floor-length dress, with shaved shoulders, a graceful figure, a jewel on her head, a simple bun, elegant and noble, her facial features are similar to Qin Guifei, and her body exudes the fragrance of books, which shows that she is knowledgeable and full of poetry and books.

"Miss Qin, please get up!"

Qin Linglong stood up, looked at Lou Yueqing with a smile, and asked softly, "I just saw someone here on the boat, and I felt similar to the county lord from a distance, so I came over to take a look, but I didn't think it was really the county lord, but it was a coincidence!"

The voice is tactful and soft, not arrogant or impatient, with a hint of respect.

Qin Youxiang is very good at teaching his daughter!

Lou Yueqing smiled, rubbed Ling'er's head, and said softly, "This child wants to come out to play, so take her out for a walk!"

Qin Linglong was stunned, looked at Ling'er and said, "The county lord really loves this child, but how did he get covered in mud?"

There is mud everywhere, and there are some dead grass and leaves, there are many willow trees around here, and there are naturally many dead leaves on the ground, and there is still a piece of Ling'er's skirt, which is a little funny.

Lou Yueqing said helplessly, "I just got it!"

I pressed the book, bent down and gently helped Ling'er pat the dirt off her body, Mo Li handed her a handkerchief, and helped her wipe the mud off her face and hands, the soil was dry, and it was gone with a gentle wipe.

The movements were gentle, and Ling'er also let Lou Yueqing help her wipe it.

Qin Linglong chuckled lightly and said softly, "The child is stubborn, but the county lord is patient, I heard my sister praise the county lord before entering the palace, Linglong is still thinking, there is time to visit."

!”

Previously, Qin Guifei praised the county lord of the Ningguo Mansion and said that he did not lose his mother's demeanor, although he looked harmless, he was by no means an ordinary woman.

Qin Linglong was very surprised, her sister was a straightforward person, and she had always disliked these women from the family in Beijing, who were pretentious, so she had never praised anyone, and this was the first time she had ever praised someone.

In fact, she doesn't like it either, so she rarely comes into contact with these women of the world in Beijing, and only a few people with gentle temperaments get close to her.

My father is upright, and he taught them since they were young that they should not lose their hearts, and she naturally understands them.

I've seen this county lord twice before, once in the Queen Mother's Palace, and once at the eldest princess's birthday banquet, but I haven't been in contact with it, so I have to speak.

After helping Ling'er get it almost done, Lou Yueqing stood up and said with a smile, "The noble concubine is in love, but why is Miss Qin here?"

Qin Linglong said, "That's the case, I have a small gathering with Miss Yao and Miss Zhou today, and we are on the boat, if the county lord doesn't dislike it, why don't you go up and sit down?"

Miss Yao, the daughter of Yao Tingshen, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Yao Qian, Miss Zhou, the granddaughter of Taifu, Zhou Jinyu.

A trace of surprise crossed Lou Yueqing's eyes, and then calmed down.

For these people and things in Chu Jing, I heard Xue Du tell her during this time, Yao Shangshu is honest, his daughter is warm and elegant, but she is a good girl, Mrs. Zhou is the enlightenment teacher of the current emperor, his son died early, leaving a daughter who is deeply favored by him, and she teaches with one hand, but she is also knowledgeable.

has such a close friend in the boudoir, it can be seen that Qin Linglong is also a delicate person, and he knows what kind of person is worthy of deep friendship.

Glancing at the hull of the boat, through the window, you can still see that there are two people standing by the window looking at this side, Lou Yueqing nodded, "Miss Qin invited, then I'm welcome!"

"County Lord, please!"

got on the boat, and sure enough, I saw two women in gorgeous clothes coming over.

The ship is not very wide, but the interior is very stylish, not extravagant, but not vulgar.

The two women hurriedly walked over and saluted Lou Yueqing.

"I've seen the county lord!"

Although they are all noble girls in Beijing, they have no titles, and Lou Yueqing is the lord of the county, so she can naturally afford their courtesy.

Lou Yueqing looked at the two people who saluted her, one was wearing a light pink dress and the other was wearing an apricot dress, they were all dressed with great temperament, and their clothes were also first-class.

It's just that it looks a little immature, and it must not be too late.

"No need to be polite!"

"Lord Xie!"

The two of them raised their heads, and Lou Yueqing saw their faces clearly.

The woman in the pink dress has a pointed chin, soft facial features, a pair of delicate eyes, and a dignified figure, but the woman in the apricot dress next to her looks more rounded, looking at the eyebrows and eyes with a sense of righteousness, with clear contours, and she is also a beauty.

Qin Linglong introduced separately, "This is Miss Zhou, Zhou Jinyu, and the granddaughter of Taifu

Then he took another woman in pink and said, "This is the daughter of Yao Shangshu, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Yao Qian!"

Miss Zhou immediately said, "The last time my aunt went back to visit my grandfather, she mentioned the county lord to me, but I haven't seen it, but today I am fortunate to be able to see it, fortunately!"

Princess Shen is the daughter of Mrs. Zhou and her aunt.

Lou Yueqing smiled lightly, but did not speak.

・・・・・・

After staying on the boat for a while, Lou Yueqing took the little girl back to the house together, and Ling'er didn't want to go back, but Lou Yueqing couldn't stay outside for too long, so she went back first.

Passing by the garden, I saw Lou Qiqi picking flowers.

When he saw her, he walked over and saluted, "I've seen my sister!"

Xiang'er, the maid behind her, also hurriedly saluted, "I've seen the county lord!"

Lou Yueqing asked her to get up, and asked with a smile, "What is Qi'er doing?"

Lou Qiqi pointed to the flower basket in the maid's hand and said in a low voice, "There are many flowers blooming in the garden, so I'll fold some and go back to make a sachet!"

There are many kinds of flowers in the garden, and now it is the season of bloom, and the flowers are full of flowers, which is also beautiful.

Lou Yueqing, "Just let the maid do this kind of thing, why did my sister come by herself?"

"Qi'er has nothing to do in the yard, make it up to breathe, sister, is this coming back from outside?"

"Well, go out for a walk, I'll go back first!"

"Sister go slowly!"

Lou Yueqing, the former little girl with her head shrugged all the way, returned to Lanyue Tower.

Lou Qiqi looked at Lou Yueqing's distant figure, retracted his gaze, and looked at the people beside him, "Let's go back too!"

"Yes!"

Turn around and go to your yard.

But after walking a few steps, she was stunned there, looking at the two maids who didn't know what to talk to at the foot of the rockery not far away.

The back of the garden is relatively remote, and her yard is not on this path, but it is hidden and cooler here, and it is a little far back to her yard.

She remembered that the two people over there, one was the second sister-in-law's personal maid Xiao Lian, and the other was the sister-in-law's maid Xun'er!

Lou Qiqi subconsciously retreated in an inconspicuous position, looking at the two people who didn't know what to say, his brows furrowed.

Xiang'er was not as calm as her, and covered her mouth in surprise.

"Miss, that's not ・・・・・・"

The relationship between the two ladies is not very good, why did the personal maids of the two get together?

What's going on?

Lou Qiqi silenced her, looked at the two people not far away, and frowned, a little surprised, more exploratory.

Immediately, ponder

Although the relationship between the sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law is not bad, how can a person like the second sister-in-law have no grudges against the sister-in-law?

Now her maid and sister-in-law's dowry maid want to do in this hidden place?

Could it be ・・・・・

Thinking about it, the people over there seemed to have finished chatting, and looked around sneaky, Lou Qiqi hurriedly retreated and hid himself behind the rockery, Xiang'er was naturally not stupid, and also hid in, and soon the two people over there left, and Lou Qiqi walked out and walked to the place where the two of them were staying.

"Miss, how could the maids of the second young lady and the eldest young lady be here・・・・・・"

Lou Qiqi looked at her and said slowly, "What you saw today, you shouldn't have seen it!"

Xiang'er wanted to ask something, but seeing her young lady's strict face, she nodded busily, "Yes!"

"Let's go back!"

・・・・・・・

I went to see Lou Yichen in the evening, Mo Li checked the pulse and said that it was no big deal, Lou Yueqing was relieved, and after talking to Lou Yichen for a while, he went back to Lanyue Tower.

On the second day, Lou Yueqing entered the palace.

This time when she entered the palace, Mrs. Ning Guo was not there, she was the only one who wanted to do it, and she didn't know what the Queen Mother wanted to do, so she waited and saw what happened.

Take Tingxue and Mo Li into the palace.

The carriage stopped at the gate of the palace and handed the sign to enter the palace, and the people at the gate of the palace naturally did not dare to stop it, so they let it in.

As soon as she got out of the carriage, Lou Yueqing was helped out of the carriage.

Today, I wore a crescent-colored palace dress, wearing a head made of red gold on my head, a begonia hairpin made of red gold, a golden step swaying, gold threads hanging from my forehead, and long hair hanging down behind me, and the whole person looked much more noble and elegant.

The skirt is embroidered with begonia flowers, which is very good-looking, and it sets off Lou Yueqing's already delicate and smooth skin and is more moisturized.

The steps collided and made some crisp sounds.

I took a soft sedan chair to the Zhangde Hall and walked for a long time before I arrived.

The Zhangde Hall is still so magnificent, but today is no different from the last time.

It's just that there are some palace people waiting at the entrance of the palace, presumably some noble person in the palace

Wang Wei had already heard the news and was waiting at the gate of the palace.

"I've seen the county lord!"

Stepping back slightly, Lou Yueqing said, "Father-in-law doesn't have to be polite!"

Wang Wei bent over, and said with a smile on his face, "Concubine Zhen is waiting for the queen mother to eat inside, please wait for a while!"

Lou Yueqing bowed slightly.

said that it was waiting, and it didn't take long to see a beautiful woman walking out of it.

Holding his hair in a high bun, wearing luxurious gold ornaments on his head, there is no shortage of jewelry, wearing a gorgeous palace dress of purple and pink, and a lot of rouge on his face, which looks radiant, but deliberately gorgeous

This person is the highest-ranking concubine in the palace besides the queen and Qin Guifei, Concubine Zhen, the eldest daughter of Zhong Yuanqing, the secretary of the Ministry of War, Zhong Mingming, and Zhong Yueyue's sister.

Lou Yueqing saluted slowly, "The courtiers have seen the concubine!"

The eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and the smell of fragrant powder on Concubine Zhen's body was a little strong, and it came directly to her nose, which made her a little disgusted.

Concubine Zhen obviously saw Lou Yueqing for the first time, her eyes were first paused, and then she suddenly narrowed.

With a far-fetched smile, he said, "The county lord doesn't have to be polite, get up quickly!"

Lou Yueqing stood up, did not look at her, but lowered her eyes and did not look directly at her, Zhong Mingming looked at Lou Yueqing's face as seductive as Qin Guifei, her eyes flashed slightly.

smiled, "This palace has never seen the county lord, I didn't expect to see it here today, but it's a coincidence, I don't know if the sister of this palace is good in the Ningguo Mansion?"

Lou Yueqing said, "The second sister-in-law is excellent, and the concubine can rest assured!"

Concubine Zhen smiled suddenly, covered her mouth with a handkerchief and said with a smile, "The county lord said that he was laughing, this palace is just asking at random, what is there to worry about, the Ningguo Mansion does not eat people!"

Lou Yueqing lowered her eyebrows and was silent.

"Okay, the queen mother is still waiting to see the county lord, the palace will go back first!"

"Send the mother!"

Concubine Zhen glanced at Lou Yueqing with a smile on the corner of her mouth, her charming eyes were full of coldness, and she immediately let the palace maid help her leave. A group of people left the Zhangde Hall in a mighty manner, and suddenly there were more than half fewer people at the door.

Wang Wei opened his mouth and said, "County Lord, the Queen Mother is already waiting inside!"

Lou Yueqing followed Wang Wei into the Zhangde Palace.

Zhangde Hall has its own garden, in the pavilion in the garden, the Empress Dowager Yuan just let people remove breakfast, because she doesn't like to eat in the palace, so every meal is in the long pavilion in the garden on weekdays.

At this time, I was rinsing my mouth after eating.

Lou Yueqing followed Wang Wei's steps into the garden, and saw from a distance that there were many palace eunuchs guarding the long pavilion, and in the pavilion, a woman wearing a dark purple palace dress was gargling under the service of the palace people.

Slowly approaching, Wang Wei reported, "Queen Mother, the county lord of Qingyan is here!"

Hearing this, the Empress Dowager Yuan looked over and saw a gentle smile between Lou Yueqing's eyebrows.

"The courtiers have seen the Queen Mother!"

"Get up, come and sit!"

Pointing to the position beside him, let Lou Yueqing sit down.

Lou Yueqing pursed her lips slightly, thought about it, and was still relaxed, "Yes!"

The palace people served tea, and the Empress Dowager Yuan looked Lou Yueqing up and down, with a gentle smile between her eyebrows and eyes, as if she was really happy to see it.

"The mourning family has always wanted you to enter the palace to chat with the mourning family, but it's a pity that Ning Guogong was injured these days, and you are not in Beijing, so it was delayed, by the way, Ning Guogong's injury is better?"

Lou Yueqing smiled faintly, lowered her eyebrows and replied, "Empress Dowager Xie cares, the eldest brother's injury is much better, and it will probably not take many days to heal."

!”

The attitude is respectful, there is nothing wrong to pick, and even every move can not see any disrespect, the Empress Dowager Yuan saw it in her eyes, and her smile deepened.

"That's good, I heard that Ning Guogong was injured, the mourning family has been worried for a long time, Ning Guogong is a general in the court, if something happens, it will be the misfortune of Chu State, fortunately the Bodhisattva blesses, it's okay if people have nothing to do!"

The corners of Lou Yueqing's mouth pulled slightly, slightly hooked, but did not speak.

Lou Yueqing was quiet at the right time, not rude, so appropriate, Empress Dowager Yuan thought about it, and suddenly asked, "By the way, the mourning family is curious, I heard that the people of Handzhou are outstanding, but they have never been there, you and the mourning family told you how good it is, and you actually asked your mother to send you there for ten years!"

Lou Yueqing's eyebrows moved slightly, is the Empress Dowager Yuan talking in a cliché?

It seems that she really guessed correctly, the person who assassinated Rong Zhi was the person of the Empress Dowager Yuan, in the Chu State, Feng Ling can command 5,000 Feng Wei, that is an invisible secret guard loyal to the Queen Mother and the Empress, in addition to being the mother of the country, the emperor can not command, when the Empress Dowager Yuan sent Feng Wei to assassinate Rong Zhi, the Feng Ling was accidentally obtained by herself, and now, the Empress Dowager Yuan knows that the person who saved Rong Zhi outside Gusu City is her own.

However, Feng Wei alone can find out these things?

Lou Yueqing was a little skeptical.

However, there was still an embarrassed far-fetched smile, and said, "The courtiers are recuperating in Handzhou and have never been out, the queen mother's question is so that the courtiers don't know how to answer, the queen mother forgives her sins!"

"Oh, you've never been out, that's a pity!"

Lou Yueqing, "The body of the courtiers needs to be recuperated, and it is not suitable to go out, and the courtiers also regret that they have not been able to see the scenery of Handzhou with their own eyes, but it is also excellent to be able to live there for so many years!"

Handzhou is like spring all year round, the most nourishing thing in Chu is Handzhou, there are hot springs everywhere, the scenery is beautiful, the mountains are high and the water is beautiful, the summer is cool and the winter is warm, the people are rich in food and clothing, Lou Yueqing has lived there for many days before, and the hot springs there are good for her body, and she often goes to soak.

Later, when there was a war between Chu and Wei, she went to the battlefield, and then fell unconscious.

Empress Dowager Yuan thoughtfully, looked at Lou Yueqing, and sighed lightly, "So, that's right, the mourning family has never left Chujing, how is it outside, I have never been to see it!"

The women in Beijing, although they have a noble status, can only stay in the boudoir, and she, too, is the mother of a country after entering the palace, it is even more difficult for Chu Jing, now you are the queen mother, every word and deed, there are rules to govern, naturally you can't go out.

Lou Yueqing was about to speak, when a palace maid hurriedly walked in, saluted and said, "The Queen Mother, the emperor and the concubine have come to greet the Queen Mother!"

Hearing this, Lou Yueqing was slightly stunned, but the Empress Dowager Yuan's face changed.

When did the emperor not come, but he came today, it was a coincidence!

Thinking so, a few people walked in at the entrance of the garden.

The person at the front, dressed in a white brocade robe, was walking this way with a woman in a gorgeous palace costume beside him.

------Off topic------

I said it yesterday, I accompanied my sister-in-law to the hospital today, and I was busy with other things in the afternoon, so I worked hard to code so much, and I will continue to explode tomorrow, uh-huh!
