The morning light was slightly dewed, and the two maids led a eunuch to the front of the ancestral temple last night. The eunuch www.biquge.info was about forty years old, with a white face and beard, and his round figure showed that his status in the palace was not low. I only heard him pant and said: "Princess, you can make the old slave easy to find! Please go back to the palace with the old slave to change clothes and wash quickly, don't delay the auspicious time to greet the empress dowager." ”

Gonggong Yang, the slave arranged by the Empress Dowager to Xiao Baoer's side, is also the only slave that Xiao Baoer has never beaten. Xuan Ze said that Gonggong Yang was sleek and tricky, and beating him was equivalent to beating the Queen Mother......

The servants in the palace all understood that Xiao Bao'er was a grassland barbarian girl and did not understand the etiquette of the Central Plains at all. The Empress Dowager canonized her as a princess, just because the Son of Heaven was young, and she hoped that before the Son of Heaven came into power, Northern Liao and the Central Plains could coexist in harmony. Under her hints, everyone in the palace was more indulgent to Xiao Bao'er. Reciprocated by peach, Xiao Baoer would not take the initiative to provoke the minions sent by the Empress Dowager no matter how much she messed around.

Today is different from the past, in order to confirm that she really got a glimpse of the future, she took the initiative to get close to Yang Gonggong, "Father-in-law, do you know where the cold palace is?"

Gonggong Yang said in surprise, "Princess, the Son of Heaven has not yet married a wife, and there is no place for the disgraced concubines in the palace for the time being." ”

"What about the former dynasty?"

In the past, the son of heaven was desolate ~ promiscuous, and he wished to accept all the women in the world as concubines, how could he be willing to let the delicate beauties stay alone in the cold palace? ”

Xiao Bao'er was confused, since Xiao Huiting said that she was in the cold palace, she wanted to come to this palace to have a place to hold the concubine who fell out of favor. She continued to ask, "What about before the previous dynasty?"

Before the previous dynasty, there was indeed such a place called the Cold Palace, and the Empress Dowager lived there before she came to power. Gonggong Yang hesitated, this place is still locked up, do you want to tell Xiao Bao'er?

"Princess, the hour is not early, the matter of the cold palace will be asked by the slave when he goes back, maybe there is!"

"If there is, there will be, if there is not, what does it mean to 'maybe there is'? You are an old man in the palace, and I don't like to hear this. ”

Xiao Bao'er had already put on embroidered shoes and put on her coat, but when she heard Yang Gonggong say this, she pushed away the maid who was waiting, hugged the bronze unicorn's legs and didn't leave. As soon as Gonggong Yang saw this situation, he knew that she was going to play tricks. This is the ancestral temple, and if she climbs on the Qilin for a while, she will be guilty of disrespect. At that time, the Empress Dowager will not punish her, and in the end, it will be their group of minions who are unlucky!

"Princess, the old slave suddenly remembered that there was such a place that might be a cold palace, I don't know what the princess is going to do there?"

"I heard that the cold palace is very beautiful, I don't believe it, I plan to go over and take a look!" her explanation, Yang Gonggong never doubted. The barbarian girl of the prairie, in addition to her bad temper and messing around all day long, is a scheming person.

"Princess, go with the old slave! When you get to the ground, you have to listen to the old slave, there are guards there, and it is easy to get in and out, and you are not allowed to mess around. ”

Is there really a cold palace? Xiao Bao'er put away the trick of Lai Sapo, pulled the outer cloak on her body, and followed behind Gonggong Yang with some trepidation. Walking to the Imperial Garden, a man with an excellent appearance walked up, Yang Gonggong stopped his footsteps, and said loudly: "The old slave has seen Qingshanjun. ”

Xiao Baoer didn't expect to meet Xuan Ze at this time. The latter's still immature face was as gentle as ever, bearing no resemblance to the scheming man in his dream.

In a trance, she remembered the last time the two met in her dream. She had been in the hospital for three years, and every day she had to drink the decoction made by the imperial doctor, and the bitter soup ruined her appetite and will. There was a time when she didn't want Xuanze, she didn't want children, she just wanted to look at the blue sky calmly, and imagine that she was lying on the meadow waiting for the guards who came to look for her.

This appearance frightened the guards who guarded her, and they invited Xuan Ze, who was over thirty years old and began to grow a beard, and his straight waist was a lot rounder because of his comfortable life. The regent of Great Xia, the lord of the Song Kingdom, and the aura of all the rights imposed on him made him look a little strange. He sat on the edge of the bed, frowning and talking about the complexity of business, and there was no past friendship in his eyes.

The situation of that day is still clear when I think of it, she didn't coquetry, she didn't cry, she just asked: If you don't have children, don't you want me anymore? Xuan Ze replied: Fool, when I sit firmly on the throne of the emperor, who dares to embarrass you with the matter of the heir......

She believed this, just because Xuan Ze had her shadow in his eyes again. On that day, Xuan Ze left in a hurry because of political affairs, and in the next two years, they never saw each other again, except for letters.

The imperial garden in autumn does not have much scenery, and compared to Xuanze, who is dressed in white and snowy, those golden chrysanthemums in full bloom look like a background.

Xiao Bao'er lowered her eyes and didn't look at the man she loved deeply, and the pain she felt in her dream still spread to her limbs.

"Qingshan has seen the princess, looking at the princess's appearance, is it another trouble?"

Xiao Bao'er's cloaked appearance was really embarrassing compared to the neatly dressed palace people around her. She hid crampedly behind Gonggong Yang, and whispered: "On the Empress Dowager's birthday, the Garment Bureau cut new clothes for Bao'er, and Bao'er ran out before she had time to wash up when she was excited...... Qingshan-kun entered the palace to celebrate his birthday?"

"The Son of Heaven summoned the new branch of Jinshi today and specially asked me to go and write a few poems for the birthday of the Empress Dowager. ”

"Bao'er won't delay Qingshan-kun, please!"

Xiao Bao'er made a gesture to let Xuan Ze take the lead, and the latter looked at her a few more times in surprise. What's wrong with the little princess, who is so knowledgeable today?

Surprised, not only Xuan Ze, but also the minions who had been serving Xiao Bao'er were also taken aback by her actions. How could this unruly princess who regarded etiquette as nothing enlightened? Could it be that she felt the majesty of Daxia at the ancestral temple last night, and finally understood the despicability of the grassland people?

The corners of Xiao Bao'er's mouth were full of wry smiles, she had been dreaming for ten years, and she really disdained the cumbersome court etiquette of Daxia. Until she married Xuanze and became the queen of the Song Kingdom, she had to learn and accept everything here in order to integrate into the Central Plains!

After Xuan Ze left, Gonggong Yang couldn't help but ask: "Why did the princess lie to Qingshanjun, didn't Qingshanjun tell the princess about the cold palace?"

Xiao Baoer is a straight intestine, and she can't hide her words in her heart, but she is speechless in the face of Yang Gonggong's questioning. She glared at Father-in-law Yang, "Father-in-law is asking, are you the master, or my master?"

Gonggong Yang raised his hand and slapped himself, "The old slave lost his words, and asked the princess for forgiveness." Compared with the two maids last night, Gonggong Yang is indeed as Xuan Ze said - extremely treacherous. If you seize the opportunity, you will talk about it, and if you can't get it, you will slap yourself in the face, and you will not give Xiao Baoer a chance to get angry!

After half a tea time, Yang Gonggong pointed to a road and said, "Princess, the end of the road is the place you want to go." ”

Xiao Bao'er stared at the end of the corridor in a daze, trying to find a little bit of familiarity, that place had imprisoned her for five years, but unfortunately she only remembered the scenery inside the courtyard, and she didn't know what the courtyard looked like at all. blamed her for trusting Xuan Ze too much, so she only knew that she was going to another hospital to recuperate, and when she was hugged by Long Yuan, she cried in his arms. I didn't even notice where the annex was located in the palace, and I didn't know if the annex had a name.

"Father-in-law, why are there guards guarding the front?

"Back to the princess, Prince Chun lives there. ”

"Who is that?"

As long as the Empress Dowager lives for a day, Prince Chun will be the living dead in this palace. Before, Gonggong Yang was worried about this matter, but now it is even more difficult to ride a tiger, so he has to pinch his head and tail and say, "Princess, Prince Chun is the uncle of today's son and the youngest son of the first emperor." ”

Xiao Bao'er walked towards the end of the road, and only when she walked into the palace did she know if the dream last night was real, and whether she really had a glimpse of the future!

"Princess," Grandpa Yang hurriedly stopped Xiao Bao'er, "Where are you going?"

"Meet Prince Chun, and take a tour of what the cold palace should look like. ”

"Princess, since you know that it is the Cold Palace, you should know that the Cold Palace is only allowed to enter and not leave, and no one can enter without the permission of the Queen Mother. ”

Xiao Bao'er ignored Yang Gonggong's words, pushed it away, and trotted to the end of the road.

The guards guarding outside the door were startled by Xiao Bao'er's hurried behavior, this is another forbidden place other than the ancestral temple, few people will come on weekdays, what happened today? Before they could react, the vermilion courtyard door opened a crack from the inside out.

The person who opened the door was wearing a azure straight jacket, and his long black hair was scattered behind his head, and it was hard to imagine that anyone could dress so casually in this Great Xia Palace, which was particular about dignity and courtesy. He looked Xiao Bao'er up and down, and asked hesitantly, "I don't know why the girl knocked on the door?"

"I'm looking for Prince Chun. ”

Xiao Chun looked at Xiao Bao'er with a surprised face, the girl in front of her had not yet reached her feet, her black hair was braided into several braids, she was wearing a white middle coat under a goose-yellow brocade cloak, and a pair of embroidered shoes were stained with morning dew and sticking to her feet.

It is estimated that the only reason why the Great Xia Palace is so rude is that the unruly princess from a foreign country, "I don't know what the girl is looking for this king?"

Xiao Bao'er looked at Xiao Chun dumbfounded, this person holding a broom was actually the prince? Qingjun's face couldn't tell his age, he stood behind the door ordinarily, and the whole person seemed to be integrated with the house, looking like a tree, a flower, and a beam in the courtyard, not a person.

The chubby Yang Gonggong finally caught up with Xiao Bao'er, he wiped the sweat oozing from his forehead, and said to a few guards with a smile, "Everyone, forgive me, Princess Bao'er's childlike nature, I'll leave in a while." "The guards have already guessed Xiao Bao'er's identity, for this barbaric princess who dares to ride a horse into the imperial garden, as long as she doesn't make a big mistake, it is a good strategy to turn a blind eye.

Gonggong Yang didn't dare to look at Xiao Chun, so he wisely avoided the side and whispered: "Princess, the hour is not early, the Empress Dowager is still waiting for you!"

Xiao Bao'er ignored Father-in-law Yang, and a pair of beautiful apricot eyes kept looking towards the courtyard behind Xiao Chun.

Xiao Chun saw that she was working so hard, so she simply came to open the courtyard door, "What did the princess have left in the Flying Flower Palace?"
