Chapter 54: A Request for Marriage
Hearing this, the Ministry of Industry Shangshu took a step, stepped forward, leaned over his head, and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that a hunting competition can be held this year, divided into several groups to hunt in different directions, and the time is limited to one hour, I don't know what the emperor wants?"
Ouyang Xuanyue lowered her eyes slightly, thought for a moment and then raised her eyes and said, "I think this idea is very good, what do you think of this idea?"
Prime Minister Zuo surrendered his hand and said, "Weichen thinks that this can not only enhance the feelings of civil and military officials, but also reflect the sense of cooperation of the ministers, which is a good idea."
As soon as Zuo Xiang's voice fell, the civil and military officials said in unison: "The ministers think this is a very good idea. ”
"Okay, just do what Aiqing said and retire from the court. When Ouyang Xuanyue stepped down the steps, the afterglow swept his eyes at the Ministry of Works, and the corners of his mouth were outlined, as if he was smiling.
The sparse sunlight was imprinted in front of the couch through the window, Shangguan Yelin looked at the soft sunlight on the ground, fanned her eyelashes lightly, and called Bixue to groom her.
Listening, Bi Xue stepped in with Ying Yinglian to dress up Shangguan Ye Lin, and a small voice floated outside the window, as if she was talking about something, Shangguan Ye Lin listened intently.
"Hey, it's going to be the annual hunting meeting in a few days, and I'm afraid it's going to be lively for a while. A palace maid holding a pastry in her hand said to another palace maid beside her.
"Yes, I heard from a few little eunuchs that this hunting meeting is different from the past, and this time it will be divided into several groups for hunting, and it is estimated that it will be more lively than before. ”
"Alas, it's a pity that we, as subordinates, can only stay in the palace and can't catch a glimpse. ”
"yes, alas. ”
The two palace maids sighed as they walked towards the corner of the palace gate.
When Shangguan Ye Lin heard this, he thought, 'Hunting? He raised his eyebrows, opened his lips and said, "Bixue, help me prepare paper and pen." "Since it's hunting, she naturally needs tools, and she can't play with bows and arrows, so she has to make tools by herself.
"Yes, Miss Shangguan. Bi Xue bowed slightly, answered, and immediately went to the desk to take a brush and a piece of paper to Shangguan Ye Lin, and handed the pen and paper in her hand to Shangguan Ye Lin.
Shangguan Ye Lin took the pen and paper, and according to the results of his mental analysis, he wrote down the quantity and size of the required materials on the paper, and said lightly, "Later, you give this piece of paper to Tianying, and let him prepare those things for me according to what is written on it." ”
"Yes. Bixue replied and waited for Shangguan Ye Lin to finish writing.
Half an hour passed, Shangguan Ye Lin put down the pen and handed the paper to Bi Xue, "Take it." ”
Bi Xue took the paper in Shangguan Ye Lin's hand and walked out.
A fragrance of cold plum wafted into his nose, and a voice sounded behind him, "Lin'er, I have something to tell you." ”
"Xuanyue, you really only walk with incense and no sound. Shangguan Ye Lin smiled jokingly, walked towards Ouyang Xuanyue, raised her eyebrows slightly, and replied, "It's about hunting?"
"Well, that's what I'm going to say, with Lin'er's personality, she doesn't seem to like lively places very much, so I'm going to ask Lin'er's opinion, is Lin'er going?" Ouyang Xuanyue sat on the stool very elegantly, took a hook, and took Shangguan Ye Lin, who was walking towards her, into her arms.
"Of course, you're all gone, why don't I go?" Shangguan Ye Lin raised his willow eyebrows, raised his chin to look at Ouyang Xuanyue, and announced his right to possession.
"You!" Ouyang Xuanyue shook her head helplessly and pinched Shangguan Ye Lin's small upturned nose.
In Jinghai Palace, the Empress Dowager Qin was dressed in a Feiluo gold thorn five phoenix auspicious clothes, leaning on the chaise longue, with a few white hairs sandwiched between the ink-colored hair and combing into a luxurious bun, a crown of exquisite jade grass head insects inlaid with beads and gold crowns, looking dignified and generous, and the red jade bead earrings hung down in the ears, which was particularly luxurious.
At this time, the Empress Dowager Qin's face was sultry, her eyebrows were lowered and she frowned slightly, and the grandmother on the side smiled and said, "If the Empress Dowager feels stuffy, why not let the old slave dissipate heat for the Empress Dowager." ”
After speaking, a trace of breeze blew and the coolness gradually disappeared, the Empress Dowager Qin smiled lightly, her red lips opened slightly, "The heart is difficult to be quiet, and the heat is naturally difficult to get rid of." ”
The palace maid walked into Jinghai Palace, stepped forward, and was blessed, "Empress Dowager Qin, the right prime minister asks to see her." ”
Hearing this, the Empress Dowager Qin lifted her eyelashes slightly, signaled her chin, got up lazily and walked to the high position of the steps, and waited for the right minister to come.
"Weichen participated in the Empress Dowager Qin, and the Empress Dowager Qin's mother was a thousand years old. The left and right hands brushed each other, shook the sleeves of the robe twice, knelt down, and saluted.
"The right prime minister, please get up, the right prime minister comes to mourn the Jinghai Palace, what is the matter?" Under the support of the mother, he sat upright.
Listening to his voice, he looked at the Queen Mother on the seat, dignified and gorgeous, with peaceful eyebrows and eyes adding tenderness, and a flash of expression in his eyes mixed with fierce determination, worthy of being the Queen Mother.
"Weichen has a reluctant request, and I implore the Empress Dowager Qin for permission. The right prime minister bowed his head and bowed down, and said respectfully.
Hearing the words of the right minister, the Empress Dowager Qin lifted her eyelashes lightly and said, "Oh? There was a trace of doubt in the light words, but there was a trace of light in the bottom of the eyes.
"Weichen's eldest daughter Kexin, has a deep affection for King Chuxiang, and Weichen has the courage to beg the Empress Dowager Qin to give her marriage. "The voice is strong and powerful.
Empress Dowager Qin raised her head slightly, making the double phoenix bead golden wing earrings sway slightly, and her eyes were raised lightly, and she said: "Kexin girl has both ability and political integrity, and has a good blue heart, the mourning family also likes this girl, Ye'er also mentioned Kexin to the mourning family, it seems that Ye'er also likes Kexin, and the mourning family might as well take a red line from it, it's accurate." ”
"Weichen thanked the Empress Dowager Qin for her grace. As he spoke, the right minister knelt down again.
"Right Prime Minister, after Xin'er and Ye'er get married, you and the mourning family will be a family, and I'm afraid you will have to rely on the right prime minister to help Ye'er a lot in the future, and the mourning family will naturally not treat you badly. The two curved eyebrows on the back of Mrs. Qin formed an arc that seemed to be frowning, and a pair of rouge eyes were full of joy and joy, and the eyes were a little bright, and they smiled lightly.
"Wechen thanked the Empress Dowager Qin for her grace, and Wechen swore here that in this life, he should take the Empress Dowager Qin's mother and mother as the head, and there will be no two hearts. "It only belongs to the right prime minister's unique rich voice, sonorous and powerful, very firm.
Hearing this, the corners of Empress Dowager Qin's mouth drew a smile that seemed to be nothing, waved her hand lightly, and said, "Well, the right prime minister should step aside." ”
"Xuanyue, although your borrowing of wine yesterday is a warning to those ministers who are loyal to King Chu Xiang, the real purpose is to test the Ministry of Works, but isn't it even more detrimental to your future affairs. Shangguan Yelin's eyebrows faintly had a cold and glamorous air, although she had a youthful face, she also had a mature charm.
"Don't worry, I have my own measure, the dog will jump off the wall when he is in a hurry, I did this to force him to make a move. Ouyang Xuanyue's narrow ice eyes were as warm as a spring breeze at this time, and the corners of her mouth were slightly hooked.
"Well, as long as there is a problem with the Ministry of Works, I am not afraid that I will not be able to catch his handle. But seeing that her eyebrows were slightly raised, her little cherry lips were slightly upturned, and she was a beauty, either gentle and beautiful, or charming.
Empress Dowager Qin's gaze stayed on the two sets of jewelry in the case, and her fingertips with luxurious armor gently swiped over these jewelry, and asked lightly, "Mama Zhou, are these two sets of beads specially made by the Mourning family good-looking?
