Chapter 13: Strange (2)
The queen mother hurriedly entered the hall, and saw the brocade quilt on the bed rising high, she walked and lifted the quilt directly, and a palace maid rolled off the bed with trembling all over her body.
The Queen Mother asked sharply, "What about Pingle? If you don't say anything, it's useless to keep you minions, you all pull them out and kill them." ”
The palace maid kowtowed and begged for mercy, but she couldn't stand the fright and honestly explained, "Just now Miss Lu entered the palace, the princess changed the clothes of the slave and maid and went out of the palace with Miss Lu." ”
The Queen Mother was very angry, firstly because of Pingle's disobedience, and secondly, because she was worried that the two girls' families were out of the palace, and there were all kinds of teachings and nine streams outside, so what should happen if something happened, "The girl of the Lu family will not act so recklessly, it must be Pingle's own idea." Thinking that if she was grounded, no one would come to see her, and no one would find out, so she sneaked out. How do you slave look at people, pull them out and fight. ”
The palace maid had to keep buttoning her head and shouting for the queen mother's atonement.
Su Jin stepped forward to pull up the palace maid to punish her, Yuan Diyi said slowly, "The princess is the master, she is the servant, if she doesn't listen to the master's words, can she stay in this palace in the future?" Thinking about it, she was quite helpless. ”
When the queen mother heard this, she changed her mind and did not pursue it, but only ordered, "Why don't you go and ask the palace guards to find the princess back." ”
Emperor Yuan Yi said, "If there is a big movement, it will definitely make trouble for the emperor." ”
The Queen Mother thought for a moment and ordered, "Look for it secretly, go to the Lu family to find it first." If you can't find anyone, just talk to Lord Lu and ask him to send someone to look for him quietly in the streets and alleys. ”
……
When Pingle was brought back, the clothes of the palace maid he was wearing were already very dirty, as if he had rolled in the mud. The guards who were looking for didn't dare to hide it, so they reported where they found Pingle and what Pingle was doing when they found it.
said that Pingle and Lu Menglian were wandering on the street, but when they met Deng's disciple, they made a few teases, and Pingle actually gave each other a slap on the street, and the other party was followed by guards in brocade clothes, and it seemed that he was also from a noble family. The guards who followed behind him saw that their master was beaten and wanted to tie up Pingle for a lesson.
Fortunately, the guards arrived in time, and the two were brought back to the palace safely.
The Queen Mother slapped the chair heavily and scolded, "Look at yourself, where you still look like a princess, you dare to sneak out of the palace! If the mourning family hadn't found out and asked someone to look for it, what would you do if you wanted to?"
Pingle was not convinced, he was bullied and naturally wanted to do it, what was wrong. "The man spoke to me, should I be bullied by him in vain? ”
The Queen Mother reprimanded her for her recklessness, "So you just did it, and I didn't look at the occasion, and I didn't want to think about how you two powerless girls would deal with it, and you would directly embarrass each other." ”
Lu Menglian twisted the hem of her clothes uneasily, and said softly, "It's Menglian who is not good, and he didn't persuade the princess, but he followed the princess out of the palace without it." ”
Pingle said in a tone of doing things alone, "It's none of her business, I forced her out, she told me that it's not good to be like this, it's just that I'm stuck here every day, and I'm going crazy!"
She was originally an active person, in addition to resting, she always ran around the palace, went to the Queen Mother's place to ask for peace, and went here and there. In the past few days, she has to face the four walls, and she is like going to prison, where she is still a princess, she is a prisoner at all. Where can she stand it.
Menglian entered the palace to come to see her secretly, she was depressed, and she could hear her talk about the prosperity on the street, and she didn't know why, and suddenly felt that it was a bit of a failure to live to this age and not go to the street. Only then did he call a palace maid who did not dare to disobey to come in and stay in the palace instead of her.
"Just let you stay in your house for a few days, and you said you were going crazy. I'm really sorry for letting you stay in this palace. You don't want to stay here, but after you get married, the mourning family won't bother to care about you. But you are not married yet, your surname is not preceded by your husband's surname, and you are still surnamed Jing, so you must remember to be measured!"
Pingle pointed to Yuan Diyi, who was silent on the side, and said, "It's good for the Queen Mother to have her, why bother with me, my father punished me ruthlessly, and you ignore me." I'm just going out for a while, what's the big deal. ”
All she knew was that what she said and did now seemed to be wrong. Only Yuan Diyi is right and what he does is right. Even if that's the case, it doesn't matter what she does, just let her fend for herself, and she won't make them angry again.
Emperor Yuan persuaded earnestly, "How can the princess talk to the Queen Mother like this, the Queen Mother is your elder, this is disrespectful." ”
"My father and the queen mother don't love me anymore, they don't love me anymore!" Pingle cried and ran into the inner room, casually pulling the bead curtain, and heard the sound of the jade bead breaking the thread on the ground.
Lu Menglian comforted, "The princess didn't mean to say such things to hurt the queen mother's heart. ”
The Queen Mother looked at Lu Menglian who was also dirty, and said, "Good boy, it would be nice if Pingle was as sensible as you." She messed around with her own and pulled you, which frightened you. Fortunately, you're fine, otherwise the mourning family wouldn't know how to explain to Lord Lu. Late at night, the mourners asked someone to send you back. ”
Lu Meng took pity on the blessing and retired, and before leaving, he couldn't help but glance at Yuan Diyi, Pingle didn't say anything bad about Yuan Diyi, but no matter how she looked at it, she also felt that this Yuan girl was not like a different ......
Yuan Musheng was absent-minded after returning home, Yangchun swept the fallen leaves in the garden, swept a bunch, obviously under his nose, he could also step on it blindly. I won't talk about dropping the inkstone that his favorite treasure in the study can't do. Even when eating. Yuan Diyi deliberately put his least favorite dish into his bowl, and he didn't find it and put it in his mouth to chew.
She knocked him on the head with the head of her chopsticks, knocking him awake, "Do you know what you're eating, or have you cured your picky eater?"
Yuan Musheng looked at the rice bowl blankly, realized what he had eaten, and hurriedly spit out the dishes.
Yuan Diyi asked, "What are you thinking, the soul is not guarded?"
Yuan Musheng put down the dishes and chopsticks, pretending to be something, it really tasted like chewing wax. "Today, the prince who supported his relatives was born in the court, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he begged the emperor for marriage. ”
Yuan Diyi didn't think there was anything strange about this, marriage has always been the best way to form an alliance, and small countries want to better protect and consolidate this alliance. The emperor married his own people, not only to monitor but also to stabilize his relatives, and he was willing to come.
Perhaps this courtship was also one of the purposes for which the prince came here.
She said casually, "Which princess does the emperor plan to let go to make peace?"
Yuan Musheng said, "...... He wants to marry Pingle. ”
She was rarely stunned, "Name me, or did you guess it by hearsay?"
He said it in front of the civil and military officials in the palace. ”
She analyzed, "If you have the heart and call Pingle's name, how can you not investigate that she has a marriage match." What kind of idea did he have, he knew him peacefully, but he still had other intentions. You know what?"
Knowing him, don't bother, "Just listen to what he says in the court, don't fight and don't know each other." ”
At that time, he heard that the person the prince was going to marry was Pingle, and many ministers were also stupid, and the emperor specially asked whether what the prince said was Pingle, but he was afraid that he heard it wrong.
"The emperor attaches great importance to supporting relatives, although it is a small country and has no troops that can compete, but the geographical location is excellent, separated by the imperial court and the tribes of Xifan. If you have the intention to cause chaos, I am afraid that it will become a hidden danger. ”
"Are you afraid that the emperor will sacrifice your little self?" she is not as worrying as him, "Helping relatives is desolate, the emperor will not be willing to endure hardships in Pingle, not to mention that Pingle has a marriage contract with you, and he is about to pass the door, and it is treacherous to regret the marriage at this time."
Even if the emperor thinks that sacrificing a daughter in exchange for peace is very cost-effective, and it is good to be treacherous, there will be other factors to consider, such as her.
Yuan Musheng said, "The king's heart is unpredictable, who knows." ”
Yuan Diyi teased, "It's just that you are courting in public, and it's not that the emperor wants to marry Pingle separately, or did you say you didn't like her before, but now you are in love for a long time, and your affection for her is so deep that a little thing will make a big mess." Look at your worthless look. And said that you came back to find someone to take revenge, just you?"
Yuan Musheng said honestly, "Although I don't like Pingle and don't want to marry Pingle, I don't want to think about asking her to marry a relative to get rid of her." ”
"You just don't hate Pingle? Then the last time I forced her to eat rabbit meat, you jumped out to stop her. ”
"Although I was raised by you, my style of behavior is not completely with you. ”
He stopped it because he felt that Yuan Diyi had really gone too far, even if that person was not Pingle, he would stop it if he was replaced by Yangchun Baixue. It's okay to say that he hasn't been trained thoroughly, he's not pedantic, but sometimes Yuan Diyi does too much, and he still has some resistance.
For example, ask a person to eat raw meat alive.
"Prince Fuqi lives in the palace now?" she remembered that the queen had prepared all the food, clothing, shelter and transportation in order to show the hospitality of a great country.
Yuan Musheng replied, "Now people live in the palace of King Zhan. ”
Yuan Diyi was slightly surprised.
As we all know, the Zhan Wangfu has been vacant for many years, the scenery inside is beautiful, the pavilions and pavilions are each a scene, it is the mansion that the Emperor Tianzu gave to his most beloved son Zhan Wangye.
After the death of Emperor Tianzu, he passed the throne to the four princes who had been exiled for thousands of miles, but unfortunately God was jealous of the talent, and the four princes only served as emperors for a short time before they died, and then his only son took over the throne.
The young emperor had a deep relationship with the prince of Zhan who had raised him, and even if the prince of Zhan left the imperial capital with his family soon after, he disappeared. He still made an order, not to touch a single grass or tree in the Zhan Wangfu, to maintain the original appearance, and wait for the descendants of the Zhan King to come back in the future and have a place to rest.
Yuan Musheng said, "Originally, it was arranged to live in the palace, but after such a play today, the emperor changed his mind, and he was worried that leaving people in the palace would cause trouble." He couldn't neglect the distinguished guests, so he asked the prince of a dignified country to live in the post house, and let him live in the palace of the king of Zhan with his entourage. ”
Yuan Diyi handed the bowl to Yangchun, asked her to scoop a bowl of hot soup for her, and said calmly, "How to solve this matter, the emperor is troubled, how should you live your life, you know." ”
