104.Chapter 104: The Empress Summons
Originally, the soldiers in the army listened to the rumors and were very afraid of King Ning, but after getting along, they would find that King Ning was a very admirable man, and their thoughts naturally changed. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
In fact, King Ning is only eighteen this year, compared with several princes, although he is younger, but he went to the battlefield at the age of thirteen, and has already made countless military exploits, and his soldiers respect him and treat him as the god of war.
Since he began to revere King Ning, the sense of distance became very subtle.
When Xiao Bing asked like this, Mu Ze was really stunned.
Who did you marry? Yuan Jinyu? Between them, it's not that relationship.
But maybe it was because the moonlight was too good tonight, and everyone's mood was so high, he couldn't say anything about those explanations. Eventually, there was silence.
The little soldiers were also shy to be the king of Ning, so they smiled even more happily.
After all, there is still a war going on, and you can't get drunk, so everyone is just a few glasses of sake.
A soldier sat in the tent and sighed: "Another year has passed, I hope that this time next year, everyone will be able to celebrate the New Year at home and with their families!"
King Ning kept his head down and drank, and coincidentally, as soon as he raised his head, he saw a little soldier saying this, and several people were obviously drinking happily, but they didn't realize that in fact, these words were suspected of shaking the morale of the army.
But King Ning didn't want to go against his mind this time, he just raised his wine glass, collided with them, and then said firmly: "Soon, we can go back." ”
King Ning was drinking with these soldiers here, and he was quite comfortable to say whatever he wanted, but Yuan Jinyu's side was boring.
The state banquet is full of people with heads and faces, and the most unfortunate one is also a young lady from an official family, Yuan Jinyu is careful when he speaks, lest he say the wrong thing and get into trouble.
As for some that cannot be ignored, it is the gaze of those concubines from time to time. It's not all disgusting, but it's not like it.
Yuan Jinyu was even more helpless, and the dishes in his mouth were very tasteless.
After three rounds of wine, the atmosphere at the state banquet is getting more and more enthusiastic, and the New Year is just like this, the emperor will naturally not stop everyone from having fun, as long as it doesn't go too far.
Yuan Jinyu was a little out of breath by the atmosphere in the hall, and was ready to go out a little to get some air.
After talking to the Cui family and Yuan Xiuyu, she retreated through the back door of the side hall. The palaces were huge, and although she knew the locations of those palaces, she couldn't just walk around, and could easily be stopped by the guards as assassins.
So she was next to the main hall where the state banquet was held, and she was going to go around along the road and then go back.
From the time I went out in the morning to now, it was already dark. The walls of the palace were so high that she couldn't see the scene outside when she looked up. Only raise your head higher, look at the moon, and be stunned.
There is still no news from the northwest, and Yuan Jinyu's heart can never be put down.
There are also a lot of palace people shuttling on this road, and after seeing Yuan Jinyu, they all salute in a regular manner. After turning around, the depressing feeling almost dissipated, and Yuan Jinyu prepared to go back to the palace.
Who knew that a cold voice sounded behind him: "Which young lady are you, can't you find your way back?"
This voice, Yuan Jinyu will naturally not forget. In the last life, it was because he wanted to marry this man that he died tragically in the cold palace in the end.
I hadn't seen him for so long, and when I saw him again, I still had the urge to run away.
Now it's dark, he's behind him, and he can't see his face. Yuan Jinyu made up her mind, picked up her skirt and ran forward, who knew that she had just run two steps, and hit a person's chest, she didn't stand firmly, stumbled twice, or the man in front of her, reached out to help herself.
After stabilizing his body, he took a step back, keeping an appropriate distance, but when he spoke again, his voice was a hint of banter: "Are you afraid of this king?"
Yuan Jinyu slowly raised his head, knowing that he was directly blocking his way with light skills just now, and he must have recognized who he was by now.
Since he couldn't hide, he could only face it, Yuan Jinyu responded lightly: "The people's daughter see His Royal Highness King Rui." ”
King Rui is still so good-looking, among several princes, he is talented, but he will not be regarded as a thorn in the side of the prince like King Duan, he also has a capable younger brother, and Princess Rui can also be regarded as his help. Such a man is not as important as the King of Chu among the women in the capital, but he will not be annoyed by anyone.
Except for Yuan Jinyu.
"Do you recognize this king?" King Rui didn't actually want to stop Yuan Jinyu, at first he really didn't know who this person was, where did he think that he had just asked, she was like a little rabbit, and ran away.
So he made a move that he couldn't even think of, jumped in front of her and stopped her.
"Why don't you answer what this king said just now?" King Rui asked with a smile, that smile, Yuan Jinyu liked it very much in his previous life, and he felt warm, and he couldn't help but approach.
But in this life, she always felt that smile was a little hypocritical.
"Not really. "Yuan Jinyu cherishes words like gold.
"If you're not afraid, why do you want to run?" King Rui was a little aggressive.
Yuan Jinyu was helpless: "His Royal Highness King Rui is wise and martial, so that the people are shocked, and they dare not block His Highness's way, so they naturally want to run." ”
King Rui couldn't help laughing, his eyes were crooked, and he had a face that looked five points similar to Mu Ze, and when he laughed at this time, it made the palace maids who passed by lose their minds.
But Yuan Jinyu still lowered his head, ignoring King Rui's smile.
"This is the first time that this king has heard of it, and when he saw this king, he was shocked. "King Rui is obviously in a good mood, and he is not ready to worry about Yuan Jinyu's teasing of him.
Yuan Jinyu didn't want to say more to him, so he just saluted and said, "The folk girl will retire now." ”
Anyway, regardless of the fact that King Rui was still looking at her behind her, she walked quickly to the palace. When he entered the main hall, Yuan Jinyu's face softened slightly.
There is no way, she still can't let go easily if she lives again.
Yuan Xiuyu saw that Yuan Jinyu had been out for a long time, and couldn't help asking, "Where have you been?"
Yuan Jinyu adjusted his mood and replied obediently: "I just walked around the hall and met King Rui, and it took some effort to salute and leave." ”
Seeing Yuan Jinyu mention King Rui, Yuan Xiuyu's face became a little bad. That was the first man he was tempted to, but because of his maternal clan and status, he was directly denied by the Cui family.
Thinking of this, she said faintly: "Then have you seen Princess Rui......
"Not really. Yuan Jinyu replied indifferently.
Yuan Jinyu glanced at the seat on the prince's side, because there was a curtain covering the lady's side, so she couldn't see it clearly.
"Princess Rui is not in good health, so she must not go out casually. Yuan Xiuyu's tone was filled with a hint of regret, but it was unknown whether she was worried about Princess Rui's body or that she couldn't marry King Rui.
Immediately, some concubines performed, but Yuan Jinyu looked at it and found that it was very outstanding.
By the time the female dependents could finally retreat, there were already people waiting for Yuan Jinyu at the door.
Knowing that it was someone sent by the queen's mother, Yuan Jinyu sighed in his heart, he still couldn't hide from it.
"Third Miss, the queen is invited, please come with the slaves. "That's a little eunuch, he should be in his thirties, and he should be the queen's confidant.
Yuan Jinyu nodded: "Then there is Gonggong Lao." ”
Yuan Xiuyu also followed, the queen wanted to see Yuan Jinyu, she was not at ease, what if Yuan Jinyu sold herself?
So she stood beside Yuan Jinyu and said to the eunuch and Yan Yuese: "I wonder if my father-in-law can take me there too? My sister is not familiar with the palace, and I am worried that she will break the rules of the palace." ”
The father-in-law glanced at Yuan Xiuyu and saw Yuan Xiuyu handing over a purse.
One eye contact, two people have reached a consensus.
So the father-in-law said: "The slave can take the young lady, but if you can't see it, it's what the queen said." ”
"I know all of this, father-in-law. Yuan Xiuyu smiled proudly.
Cui's two daughters were worried and wanted to follow, but his father-in-law didn't bring anything this time.
Thinking that even if she was the queen's mother, she would be a little afraid of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and she couldn't blatantly move the young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion in the palace, Cui had to hold back her anxious thoughts, and told the two sisters a few words before letting them leave.
There were no steps along the way, and it really took a long time to get from here to the queen's bedroom. Yuan Jinyu knew that this was the queen's mother who was giving herself a horse, so she just walked with her head bored and didn't speak.
Yuan Xiuyu asked her father-in-law with some grievances: "Father-in-law, how long will it take for us to arrive?"
"It's almost time, Miss better hurry up, if you delay the time of the queen, the mother will blame. ”
Yuan Xiuyu had a trace of anger in her heart. The queen brought Wu Wan'er to her today, and it seems that she also introduced herself to the emperor.
If the emperor really made a decree to marry Wu Wan'er to the king of Chu, he would have no chance at all.
So she went to see the queen this time, but she also wanted to see if Wu Wan'er was there for her.
After a while, the two sisters walked for half an hour, and when they finally arrived at Kunning Palace, their legs were numb.
After entering the house, Yuan Jinyu's lips were a little purple, and Yuan Xiuyu was even more embarrassed, and she couldn't stop sneezing.
This time, the queen didn't put on a score again, and when she heard that someone was coming, she directly let her go to the inner room.
At this time, the queen mother sitting on the main seat was still dressed in graceful clothes, and her face was painted with delicate and sharp makeup.
And in the whole house, except for Yuan Jinyu, who was wearing a plum blossom red dress, no one could compare with the queen's mother.
As for Yuan Xiuyu, her goose-yellow clothes today are failures, not brilliant at all, and now she is with the queen, more like rubble and pearls.
Wu Wan'er stood beside the queen's mother obediently and introduced the queen: "Auntie, these are the two sisters Wan'er made in the capital. ”
