Chapter Eighty-Four: A Thousand Miles to Chanjuan
"When is the bright moon? I don't know what year it is in the heavenly palace. I want to go back by the wind, but I am afraid of Qionglou Yuyu, and the high place is unbearable. Dancing to figure out the shadow, how does it seem to be in the world?
Turn Zhu Pavilion, low Qihu, shine sleeplessly. There should be no hatred, what is the long time to say goodbye? People have joys and sorrows, and the moon is cloudy and sunny, and this matter is difficult to complete. I hope that people will last a long time, and they will be together for thousands of miles. ”
"I hope that people will last a long time, thousands of miles together. After listening to this, Tang Shi only read this last sentence in his mouth, but the corners of his eyes gradually moistened.
"Auntie, it's all my fault! Auntie remembered those sad things again!" Xu Chen saw Tang crying, and hurriedly said out loud.
"No, you're good, the words are good, it's aunt and ......," Tang's tears could not be stopped.
"Don't worry! Everything will pass!" Xu Chen said seriously, but with a deep sense of helplessness, this qiē is not something he can control, all he can do is to say a few words of comfort.
For the first time, Xu Chen hated his incompetence so much! For the first time, he was so eager for power! He really hoped that after he went back, he would build those things, and then destroy all the things that stood in his way!
But that's just a thought...... Xu Chen's terrible reason once again came into play, the road had to be walked step by step, the meal had to be eaten bite by bite, the steps were too big, and it was easy to pull the eggs. And Xu Chen's is not only a matter of, it is a matter of his life, before he has the strength, he can only hide behind others and watch, and do his best to influence the development of the situation, his life is not only his now, but also a group of brothers behind him, as well as the oath he made just now. If you rush forward now regardless of a qiē, this qiē will be in vain.
I can only silently bow my head, ignore the colorful sky, and slowly wait for the small shoots I planted to grow gradually.
Tang's love affected Tang Yuan, and Xu Chen also knew that this atmosphere was not good to stay in anymore, so he was busy saying goodbye and leading the teenagers away.
After Xu Chen left, Tang looked at her husband with teardrop eyes, but the words that came out of his mouth were not sentimental at all, but a little naughty.
"Brother Yuan, did you say that this Xiaochen has taken a fancy to our Xiaojun?"
"Ahh
"Stupid! His words will deceive you, a big coarse, it's not so easy to fool me!"
It is said that a woman is born an actress, which is really not false at all! There are still sad tears in the corners of her eyes, but there is a smile on her face that is difficult to understand, and the corners of her mouth are raised, but there is a kind of pride in seeing through the treacherous scheme.
Looking at his wife's tearful and smiling face, Tang Yuan was also a little forgetful, he was probably fascinated by this face back then, and he still can't extricate himself to this day!
"What do you want!!" Tang shook his hand in front of Tang Yuan and said.
"Oh! it's not ......" Tang Yuan's face turned red and he hurriedly covered up.
"If you want to say that Xiao Chen's child is not bad, he is gentle and elegant, and he has such a good talent, and the most important thing is that he will put his mind to it, and it is really rare to be able to do this step for Xiao Jue who is not here!" Tang is worthy of being a mother, and a man who can be good to his daughter is a man who can be entrusted for life.
"Xiao Chen is good! But what about Xiao Yan?" Tang Yuan was a little entangled this time, Xiao Yan was a nephew who grew up watching him, and Xiao Yi was his brother for more than ten years, this is really not a good choice!
"This ...... It's too!" Tang's face was also a little hesitant, but in a blink of an eye, there was a strong sense of pride, his daughter could have two such excellent teenagers in love, and of course she would be proud as a mother.
"Well...... Forget it, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, let the children's affairs be decided by themselves!" Tang Yuan couldn't make a choice, so he had to say so.
"Well, then when I see Brother Xiao next time, don't mention the matter of proposing! If he comes to propose, we can't rush to agree, we have to let our daughter choose well!" Tang hurriedly added, not remembering his mood of marrying his daughter in a hurry at the beginning, isn't this a different situation! The buyer's market has become a seller's market, and the attitude is of course different!
"Oh! Okay!" Tang Yuan nodded curtly and said.
The blessing from thousands of miles away, Tang Xueying, who was in Chang'an, seemed to be able to feel it, and retracted her gaze to the south, at this moment the full moon is hanging high in the sky, and then the girl will face the biggest test since entering Beijing.
Time went back a moment, and at this moment, Tang Xuexue was living in the guest room of the Yongxingfang Flower Mansion, in the backyard of the Flower Mansion, where Hua Da and Hua Lao Jiu were talking.
Hua Laojiu, the youngest of the ten internal guards, became a member of the Ministry of Rites after leaving the internal guard, and also restored his real name, called Li Jun, is indeed a handsome man!
"Lao Jiu, did the third child of the Yang family invite you to drink just now!" Hua Da asked.
"That's right, big brother, the best building in Pingkangli, the most expensive banquet!" Li Jun, who came back just now, still had a red face, and his face was full of rouge gouache marks, and the handsome guy was always very popular in the kiln!
"What did you say?" Hua Da didn't mind the aroma on Lao Jiu's body, and still asked flatly.
"I said a lot of words, it seems that there is a master behind the guidance, there is only one meaning, I want us not to pull out his baby sister when we try the case next time. Li Jun said.
"Hehe, I think what he wants to say is that they'd better not get involved in this!" said Hua Da with a big smile.
"What does the big brother mean, let's ......" Li Jun asked a little confused.
"What else can we do? The Holy Lord has already given an order, and we can't mix this matter. Hua Da shook his head and said.
"Forget it, anyway, the saint also asked me to bring the Tang family's daughter to face the saint, let's fortunately sell him the Yang family's face, and I will take the Tang family's girl into the palace tonight." Yang Taizhen's canonization, I'm afraid I won't be able to run away, it's good to sell him to the Yang family, and we won't lose anything. Hua Da continued.
Didn't discuss anything anymore, they were all resolute men, after making a decision, Hua Da immediately came to the guest room to explain the meaning to Tang Xueying, and the girl had been waiting for this day, so she naturally nodded in agreement.
After changing her clothes, taking the gift from her father, and retracting her gaze into the distance, the girl took a deep breath and went to accept her own test.
Out of the fangmen, today is a holiday, there is no curfew in Chang'an, the East City in the distance is very lively, tourists are weaving, but the girl on the ox cart did not go to see those.
Before coming to the imperial city, Hua Da handed his sign to the Jin Wuwei guarding the door, and the privilege of the internal guard allowed him to enter and exit the palace gate at any time. Entering through the side door next to the Suzaku Gate, after the two walked in, the bustle and noise of Suzaku Street behind them were completely cut off, as if they had entered another world. The high palace walls, the majestic palaces, and the bright moonlight, the usually deserted imperial city is also full of huge lanterns in this festival, adding a touch of popularity to this huge imperial city.
After walking through the long imperial road, I finally came to the Guangyun Gate, where an internal official was already waiting.
"Where is the Holy One now?" Hua Da asked.
"Lord Huihua's words, the saint is in the palace with Concubine Taizhen at this moment. The internal official said respectfully.
"I'm tired of my father-in-law leading the way!" Hua Da also retained enough respect for the people around the emperor.
The internal official led the two of them, entered the Guangyun Gate, and walked to the Yesheng Palace in the northwest direction.
Hua Da had been watching Tang Xueying all the time, and found that this girl did not have the nervousness of ordinary people after entering the imperial city, but watched the scenery in the palace with great interest. Just now in the outer city, he could still say that he was pretending to be calm, but when he arrived in the inner palace, he still looked so indifferent, which made Hua Dagao look a lot.
The internal official led the two to the palace gate, reported to the inside, and then turned around and retreated.
The two waited outside for a while, and then another chamberlain led them into the Nativity Palace.
In the Birthday Palace, the lights are shining at the moment, a team of singers are dancing in the hall, and the upper seat is naturally the Tang Emperor Li Longji, but there is this graceful and luxurious lady beside him.
Tang Xueying thought in her heart, "I think that one is Concubine Yang Zhenzhen!"
The two stood still for a moment, Xuanzong saw that the person who came was Huada, so he also ended the song and dance in advance, and the lady next to him hurriedly helped Li Longji up when he saw this.
At this moment, Tang Xuexue really saw Yang Yuhuan clearly, at this time the woman loved the red dress, Yang Yuhuan had "worn a yellow crown" for the female Taoist priest before, wearing a yellow robe, and felt that she was wearing a yellow dress to make her skin whiter, and today she is still wearing a yellow skirt, and her shoulders are draped with a purple silk that is as light as a gauze, so yellow and purple match. Before this, no one was dressed in this color, Yang Yuhuan was beautiful and graceful, and when he was wearing this dress, the people he saw naturally suddenly brightened his eyes.
The dress is like this, and the bun is also very special. She deliberately combed her long hair loosely, inserted a hair ring at the end of the hair, so that the hair surface was fan-shaped, large in the middle, small on both sides, decorated with gold phoenix, pearl cui and other jewelry, and wore a peacock feather at the back, and the two sideburns hairpins shook in steps. This bun was first created by Yang Yuhuan, and later generations called it "Yuhuan bun".
The so-called step shake is used for women's sideburns decoration, with hanging beads on it, and the step is shaken. Yang Yuhuan's admiration is shaken, and it is made of purple grinding gold in Lishui Town. This purple gold and the purple silk on its shoulders reflect each other, the two are opposite, and then match the hanging beads on the step, when the hanging beads sway, it is more charming.
The girl only had time to take a look at Yang Yuhuan's dress, so she hurriedly bowed her head, and still didn't forget to say: "The people's daughter Tang Xuexue knocked on the saint, long live my emperor, long live long live." ”
At this time, Yang Yuhuan has not yet been canonized, in fact, Yang Yuhuan has been in the palace for several years, it is all nondescript, the title of "Yang Taizhen", that is also a title that the world has made fun of, "too true and too true", but after all, it is not a real concubine, so it can only be regarded as "very much like the real one". Therefore, Tang Xuexue didn't know what to call her, so she simply ignored it.
"Calm down!" Li Longji said lightly.
"Xie Shengshang!" Tang Xuexue slowly raised her head and stared at the bottom of the throne, she couldn't look directly at the emperor yet.
As soon as the girl raised her head, Li Longji found that the girl's face was so delicate, with a kind of water spirit and softness unique to Jiangnan women, Li Longji's eyes were stunned, staring at the girl's face tightly.
Yang Yuhuan, who was beside him, naturally knew that the emperor had moved his heart again, so he hurriedly pulled the emperor down, stretched his head at the same time, blew in the emperor's ear with his pink lips, and said in a tactful voice: "Sage, people still have something to say!"
Finally, Yang Yuhuan, who is still plump, is more in line with the appetite of our Emperor Xuanzong, and Li Longji lost interest after seeing Tang Xuexue's "thin" figure, and was recalled by the beauty beside him.
"Hua Da has already told me something about your family, do you have anything else to say?" Li Longji touched his nose with his hand to hide his gaffe just now, and although the words he said were trying to maintain his majesty, they always lacked the usual smell.
Tang Xuexue heard the Holy Lord's question, quietly took a breath, adjusted her state, and said the words that she had thought about many times.
"The people's daughter was originally from Fuliang County......"
In this way, Tang Xueying once again told her own experience, but at this moment, her acting skills can be said to have been tempered by thousands of tempers, with seven points of truth and three points of embellishment, showing the pain and sadness of an originally beautiful and sweet family after the sudden upheaval.
"Jade points, jade points!" Yang Yuhuan couldn't help but shed tears when he heard the last.
When Tang Xueying took out the broken porcelain ring, Yang Yuhuan's eyes were immediately attracted, she had seen a lot of beautiful jade, but this porcelain comparable to jade was really the first time she had seen it.
"Sage, this porcelain ring is so beautiful!" Yang Yuhuan said to Li Longji.
This is the same as what the wife said to her husband after she saw something when she went shopping in later generations, what else could the husband do but pay?
"Tang, do you still have such a porcelain ring?" Li Longji is naturally also a good husband.
"It's finally here!" Tang Xuexue said in her heart, the purpose of her deliberately taking out this porcelain ring was to attract Yang Yuhuan's attention, since she learned from Hua Da that the saint was with Yang Yuhuan almost all the time, she started this idea, and now it really works.
"Back to the saint, this thing is no longer in the girl's house, but the father is still in the world, as long as the father is found, it will naturally be able to burn this thing again. Tang Xueying replied.
After Li Longji heard this, he immediately understood what Tang Xueying meant, this is really a bit of an exchange! Li Longji couldn't help but glance at the girl again, and realized that this woman was not shallow, but also went to those reveries in his heart.
For Tang Yuan's case, he didn't care, it was a small case, and the reason why he wanted to throw it out was just to probe the reaction of some people, and at the same time, he also knocked on some people, and now it seems that the effect is still good.
"I am in charge of your family's affairs!" Li Longji said lightly.
"The people's daughter bows and thanks to the saint Longen!" Tang Xueying thanked excitedly.
Subsequently, the song and dance opened again, and Hua Da and Tang Xuexue withdrew from the Birthday Palace.
Walking on the way out of the palace, Tang Xueying could no longer hold back the rolling tears, and with the emperor's golden mouth opened, this matter was finally over. No matter what competition those big names have in the future, their family finally stepped off the chessboard, even if it was just a speck of dust under the chessboard, Tang Xueying didn't want to be involved in these things anymore.
With tearful eyes looking at the bright full moon in the sky, Tang Xuexue couldn't help but miss her parents, at this moment she really wanted to be able to cross thousands of mountains and rivers, just to return to her parents!
