Chapter 284
In the blink of an eye, it turned into late autumn, and the mottled green traces on the leaves gradually turned into a withered color, and the bleak autumn wind blew slightly, rolling up one dead leaf after another, and falling all over the garden.
The dragon burning in the hall is extremely warm, and the palace people guarding the outer hall are different from the cotton clothes in front of the palace, and only wear the palace clothes in the mezzanine.
The attendant Tan Mo and Zhu were guarding outside, occasionally whispering a few words, as if everything was as usual.
At a moment of tranquility, Xiao Yi's voice suddenly came from the hall, although it was low, but he could feel a little unpleasant.
"Let's stop talking about this matter, and I won't talk about it today. β
Tan Mo, who was originally drooping his eyebrows, couldn't help but raise his eyes slightly, and in a blink of an eye, he happened to see the same surprised Jibi and Jiangzhu, and couldn't help but hold his breath and listen quietly to the situation in the hall.
The next moment, they faintly heard the calm voice of the eldest grandson, and although it was gentle, it was a little more decisive.
"Now that the New Year is approaching, there is naturally no need to be too anxious about this matter, after the spring of next year, I thought, why don't I hold a spring banquet in the palace and invite all the nobles in the capital to come, so do you think it's good?"
Tan Mo and the others couldn't help but move in their eyes when they heard this, as if they sensed something, and at this moment, a slightly cold voice suddenly came from the hall.
"Alright. β
The voice was like a boulder smashing into the main hall, which made Tan Mo and the others stunned, and the eldest concubine in the room seemed to be puzzled, and called slightly.
"Ah Yiβ"
"Now that you and I are only a year old when we get married, you are so eager to fill Yuqing Palace for me?"
Xiao Yi's slightly cold voice seemed to interrupt the words of the eldest concubine, and Tan Mo and the others couldn't help but widen their eyes in surprise at this moment, and then they heard the girl's gentle but somewhat persuasive voice.
"It is still a big deal in the homes of ordinary people, not to mention our royal family, I know these truths, you don't need to worry about me, now King Huai has accepted two side concubines, and there are countless concubines in the house, even King Luo has also accepted a side concubine, and two concubinesββ"
"Say no more. β
The girl's words didn't seem to be finished, but she was suddenly interrupted by Xiao Yi, and then the people outside the hall could clearly hear the sound in the hall.
"I want to know now, in your eyes, is this ancestral rule important, or is the relationship between you and me important?"
Xiao Yi's voice became more and more cold into the hall, making everyone shrink their necks and bury their heads and dare not make a sound.
"Why do you askβ"
Seeing that the eldest concubine seemed to be stunned by this sudden voice, but His Royal Highness, who had always been considerate and spoiled, did not seem to soften as always, but became more and more cold, as if he was about to burst everything out.
"Since you and I got married, I have followed all your decisions, you want to rectify the palace, no matter who it is, as long as you order the transfer and punishment, I have never asked half a word, you want me to Naxi Palace, I also responded, and now you still feel that it is not enough? As the eldest grandson concubine, everything about you is indeed impeccable, but is your heart for me still as simple as before? Or, are you just trying to be this dignified and decent eldest grandson in the eyes of everyone?"
Xiao Yi almost burst out all his doubts and anger at once, and the moment the words fell, the cold words seemed to have some echoes, not to mention that inside the hall, even outside the hall, the atmosphere was like condensed ice and snow, and the cold was biting, which made people shiver.
The girl seemed to be silent, until everyone felt that everything was an illusion at the moment, when a cold and self-deprecating voice sounded again.
"So that's how you look at me?"
The girl seemed to snort lightly, unhurried but cold as frost: "I was born in the Gu family, and I learned the etiquette of the Xie family, and I have been nurtured since I was a child.
Speaking of this, the girl didn't know whether she was very angry or deliberate, and said indifferently at the end: "Or do you marry me, more because of the side?"
At this moment, Tan Mo, who was guarding outside the hall, Yan Bi and Jiang Zhu couldn't help but feel stunned when they heard the words, and they almost felt confused in their minds, they didn't understand, just before His Royal Highness entered the house, when they withdrew, the two people in the house were still fine.
How can it be in a short period of time?
The sneering voice sounded slightly in the hall, and Xiao Yi's voice could be heard as cold and low as it had never been.
"It seems that you and I can't tell you today. β
As he spoke, the young man's cold voice approached, as if he was walking out.
"As the eldest grandson of the emperor, Yuqing Palace is still my decision, I will just say this matter, you can rest these days, you don't have to worry about the affairs of Yuqing Palace. β
Almost at the moment when the words fell, the soft curtain was suddenly lifted, and under the shocked figures of Tan Mo and Libi, Xiao Yi walked out with a cold face, surrounded by a chill that made people dare not approach, and even there was no trace of emotion and heat in his eyes, which made people feel panicked.
Just when everyone was silent, Xiao Yi had already walked out of the east hall indifferently, without giving any more advice as before.
Both Libi and Jiang Zhu couldn't help but feel a "groan" in their hearts, only to feel an ominous premonition gradually coming to their hearts.
And Tan Mo didn't dare to delay too much, and immediately made eye contact with Libi and Jiang Zhu, and hurriedly and carefully pushed up, not daring to say a word.
Once again, the hall fell silent, but it was still lifeless.
Libi and Jiang Zhu both glanced at each other worriedly, and then moved slightly in tacit understanding, and walked in very quietly.
As soon as the soft curtain was opened, you could see that under the faint shadow, the girl was sitting calmly under the window, without a trace of expression on her face, and there was no wave in her eyes. β
"Girlβ"
Hearing this, Jubi couldn't help but be silent, but Jiang Zhu changed her voice in fear, but who knew that in exchange for a cold and terrifying gaze from the girl.
"Stand down!"
Jiang Zhu was silent, and reluctantly and aggrievedly retreated with Yubi. When he came out, in order not to let others see it, he sorted out his expression slightly, but in the end it still fell into the eyes of the palace people.
β¦β¦
Cining Palace.
"Really?"
Empress Dowager Guo raised her eyebrows slightly, and Guan Tong, who was sitting in front of her, realized that Empress Dowager Guo was old, no matter how dignified and noble she was back then, and how she took care of it now, the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were undeceiving.
"The quarrel between His Highness and Xiao Gu was heard by everyone in the East Hall at that time. β
Empress Dowager Guo groaned slightly when she heard this, and then sneered, and said with a little more mockery in her eyes: "In the end, I am not very old, and it is inevitable that I am impetuous on the side." β
Empress Dowager Guo played with the slightly hot jade Ruyi in her palm, and said with a bean green tassel below: "That Gu family girl wants to win over the magnates in the capital for Yuqing Palace and pave a better path for the future of the eldest grandson, but unfortunately, she is too eager for quick success, and the most important thing is that she ignores one of the most important things, do you know what it is?"
Guan Tong turned his head when he heard this, and when he saw the gaze cast by the Empress Dowager Guo, he couldn't help but shake his head and said, "Guan Tong doesn't know." β
Empress Dowager Guo's eyes suddenly floated with a deep light, and then she leaned closer slightly, her voice low and slow.
"It's a man's heart. β
Guan Tong couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this, but Empress Dowager Guo naturally leaned back, and said with a little interest: "The Gu family girl has learned more about the etiquette of the family, and the man's mind has learned less." In the minds of men, jealousy suppresses reason. β
Saying that, Empress Dowager Guo raised her eyebrows and looked at Guan Tong and preached: "Remember, the daughter's family is dignified and decent, taking into account the overall situation, and naturally gets liked by men, but sometimes you have to learn to be coquettish, so that you can be petty, and eating a little jealousy will make men feel at ease and make men happy." β
"In the past, it has always been Daji, a woman like the Zhao sisters who knows how to be amorous, as for Ban Ji and others in "The Legend of the Daughters", have you ever seen them have a good end? β
Seeing the slight light in the eyes of the girl in front of her, Empress Dowager Guo reminded with satisfaction: "Now, it is a good opportunity for you to be empathetic, if you don't grasp it at this time, the mourning family will only think that you are useless." β
Guan Tong couldn't help but raise his head when he heard this, and immediately nodded shyly at the gaze of the Empress Dowager Guo, and said in a warm voice: "Guan Tong knows." β
Seeing this, the corners of Empress Dowager Guo's lips were slightly hooked, and she smiled with a little satisfaction.
