Chapter 66

Your Majesty came to look for me, naturally there was something important, saying that the queen summoned me and asked me to follow him into the palace. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

His Majesty's biological mother, Concubine Jing, died of illness many years ago, as for the queen, I have heard Ji Yunqing mention two sentences at random, she originally had a prince, as for why she did not appear in the imperial city and was canonized, it goes without saying.

Since the death of the saint in bed, the princes returned to Beijing, and the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty have been in dispute over the establishment of the prince. I don't know if it's a coincidence, not only did the queen's prince not return, but several powerful concubines who had relatives to rely on were unelected, and the pattern was very scattered. The Heavenly Mirror Palace can protect the Son of Heaven, but they did not finally speak, and the Holy Lord was unable to handle the government, so the matter of establishing the crown prince was postponed in the dispute.

Now that the marriage between the Third Highness Ning Sheng and the Prime Minister has been decided, the prince has been selected. The direction of the wind is not difficult to find, and the queen will have to vote at the right time when she should be a cousin.

I was saved after I entered the palace, and it turned out that the queen summoned me alone. Your Majesty still has government affairs to deal with, explain it to me, and set foot on the Dan Majesty far away surrounded by everyone.

Also, this time I'm here to be kind, so I have no reason to worry about anything.

Standing still for a while, His Majesty left with a coveted battle, and straightened his back in a vain. The eyes are high, beckoning the palace people to lead the way, walking towards the harem with lotus steps, occasionally looking around, and the luxurious deep palace that is used to making people permeate is also bright and magnificent.

All these good moods melted with a sneer after I stepped into the queen's Qingning Palace and saw Si Ningxue sitting under the queen.

I was surprised for a moment, and then I figured it out: The queen wants to be kind to my brother's cousin, and it is better to find someone and a wife than to find someone's wife, after all, that is the one who will be in power in the future. At most, I just look at my brother's mood, and I will be a princess or princess with a foreign surname, and I will marry someone another day, and it will be nothing.

It seems that I am just a foil for this summons. The original smugness was suddenly beaten back to the prototype, and there was a sense of embarrassment.

My heart was active, but there was no reflection on my face, and I bowed to the ground in a proper manner, and only got up and sat down after listening to the queen's answer.

After staying in the palace for such a long time, I am no longer a country girl who has just entered the city and has a stinging nature, and the palace should be arranged in my eyes, and I don't care anymore after that. There is a faint fragrance floating in the air, and the feeling of luxury and dignity is not my favorite taste, but it makes people dizzy.

The queen treated me very eagerly at first, and the greetings of three or two sentences easily embedded a kind and cordial appearance in my heart. The pampered person, nearly half a hundred years old, still has a beautiful appearance, and the passing time has added a bit of dignified and virtuous quietness to it.

I sat down, and only responded when the queen asked me, but Si Ningxue was generous and talked and laughed freely, and the queen also valued her more, and gradually put me aside.

I can't blame others for this, and I don't know where the inferiority complex comes from, in front of Si Ningxue, who bears the name of His Majesty's fiancΓ©e, there is always a kind of humility that spontaneously bows down and does small. If she wants to communicate more with the queen, I will not intervene and displease her.

I don't get in her way, and it's a kind of flattery to her. Who made me live on her face in the future?

Honestly handed over to be a transparent person for a long time, the palace people presented some pastries and hot tea, I sighed that there was something that could pass the time, but I heard the queen above smile and said: "I heard that at a women's banquet, Gu Yu prepared a whole box of snacks from Deyun Zhai, and called Cheng Xue to never forget, I will talk about this when I come back." I don't have anything to eat here, and you're used to eating expensive things, and you don't know if you can eat it. ”

The queen's words hinted everywhere that His Majesty was favored, implying that my scalp was numb for a while, and it was not good to look at Si Ningxue's face, so how could I be busy.

I didn't want to say more, but the queen seemed to take advantage of this to suddenly realize that I still had a little use, and turned her attention to me. The girl who has not left the cabinet asks and asks, and finally falls on the matter of marriage. I didn't say anything on the side, but I just asked me to go to Dingyuan Hou's Mansion more in the future, Cheng Xue is fine at home, they are all girls of the same age, and I look forward to someone who can relieve her boredom.

The queen was originally the sister-in-law of the Marquis of Yuanyuan, and Cheng Xue's aunt. As for her asking me to go to the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, whether she deliberately threw out her nephew Cheng Mu or her concubine Cheng Yi is unknown.

This is the second time I have heard about the marriage with the Marquis of Dingyuan from other people's mouths, and I have seriously considered it for the first time, and in terms of conditions alone, there is really nothing to be faulted. It's just that Cheng Mu has a childhood sweetheart who will raise eyebrows with him in the future, and it is really unkind for others to intervene. Although Cheng Yi is a concubine, if my identity is not borrowed from His Majesty's light, I would not have been able to pick him at all, and his reputation outside is very good.

I don't know if my well-behaved performance of "decent" and "vain attempt to reconcile" has pleased Si Ningxue, and she didn't even talk much about discussing my affairs, as if she had never met with me and was strange and polite.

Thinking about it, since she has already obtained the marriage of the Holy Lord, there is no need to worry about me, and it will only make Your Majesty unhappy.

She wants to be safe with me, and I'm glad she's happy.

It's just a small story, the queen didn't stay long, Si Ningxue and I retired together, and when I walked to the door, she remembered something and went to the queen's cabinet.

Si Ningxue is on the same road as me and is the future sister-in-law, in order to show the apparent harmony, and she seems to be willing to shake hands with me and make peace, I should wait for her to leave the palace together. Seeing her go in without saying a word, thinking that entering to face the queen was also like sitting on pins and needles, so she walked out of the house first and waited outside the Qingning Palace.

As everyone knows, this wait is half an hour, and my hands and feet are cold. Thinking that she would be able to come out in the next moment, and afraid that they would be inconvenient to disturb if they had something to discuss, a gust of cold wind blew through me, and I slowly woke up.

Seeing that I was sneezing in the wind, the palace people brought a warm sleeve over. I endured it, but I couldn't help but ask: "Miss Si has something to discuss with the queen?" Is it easy for me to enter? ”

The palace man was not good-looking, but his eyes were clear, he looked at me, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "The queen has passed the chessboard, and it must take a while." ”

My brain buzzed, and I felt that someone slapped me in the face, and it burned and hurt. But he couldn't show anything on his face, nodded numbly, and turned to leave.

I just want Si Ningxue to have the slightest idea of being at peace with me, and I am not good at antagonizing people, and I am cowardly, so it will be over if I bow down and be a little forbearance. Therefore, she got along peacefully with me in front of the queen, which made me have some expectations and lower my guard.

Whoever wanted her to be silent, turned around and gave me a stab in the heart.

I also gave her enough face, and subconsciously accommodated, only waiting for half an hour without saying a word. In hindsight, she probably didn't just want to give me a dismissal.

After all, the queen is a woman in the deep palace, and what she knows best is the greasy in a woman's heart. If I really have the idea of being His Majesty's sister, I won't endure it in order to please my "future sister-in-law". She was silent, and she accompanied Si Ningxue to play chess for such a long time, and she must have seen through the mind of me, a brainless and defenseless person.

Si Ningxue showed the queen to the queen, and she made the queen her camp. In any case, the queen is a woman in the harem, and it is too difficult to get close to His Majesty, so it is easier to become close to the "future queen", and Si Ningxue gave her this opportunity. Without a word of ugly,-for-tat words, without losing a single cent of her noble image, she trampled me into the dust, and the soldiers were bloodless.

The woman in the deep palace is really terrifying.

In the eyes of others, I must have become an ugly person who does not know the height of the sky and covets his brother.

When I came, I was soupy, but when I left, I was very good. Fortunately, I have a great memory, and I will not get lost in this winding palace wall.

When I left the Xihua Gate, the afternoon sun was dazzling, and I raised my hand to cover my brow bone, and through the shadow of my fingers, I saw a carriage parked on the empty square, which was used to take me home.

I took a deep breath, calmed down, paced up to the carriage, and said to the coachman, "Let's go to the moat first." ”

The coachman was slightly stunned and chattered.

I boarded the carriage, pushed the door open with one hand and lowered my head inside, unexpectedly I saw the hem of a crimson official robe, and the person sitting inside seemed to be shocked, with gentle and soothing eyebrows: "Miss?" ”

I was stunned.

His gaze did not turn around on my face frivolously, as if he finally recognized me after a long time, and said with a light smile: "You are the sister of the Third Highness, Miss Gu Yu?" ”

I'm not in a good mood this time, so I answered yes. In any case, this car belongs to our palace, and the coachman also belongs to the palace, and a stranger is sitting here, it shouldn't be.

His face turned crimson, as if my extraordinarily cold reaction made him a little flustered, and explained: "Little sister Cheng Xue once mentioned you to me. ”

I nodded at him: "Little Marquis Chengmu?" "If it is Cheng Yi who is a concubine, he is not qualified to call Cheng Xue a little sister.

In this small space, his eyes seemed to have nowhere to place, lingering on my face for a moment and then hurried away.

I turned to the coachman, who was a little embarrassed: "The young lady has not returned in the near afternoon, and His Royal Highness probably thought that the young lady would have lunch in the palace, so he asked me to pick up the guests first." The little marquis said that he would wait for the county lord, so he ......"

It sounds like I'm abrupt, and it's embarrassing.

The banquet must have been set today, otherwise I wouldn't have heard a little bit of the news. I am a woman from the inner court, and I don't usually attend such banquets, but now I am crowded in the same car as the guests......

I laughed embarrassedly twice: "I see, then the little marquis will invite it first." Then he turned around and wanted to get out of the car.

The head Cheng Mucang hurriedly got up and tried to keep me, without the arrogance of the children of the official family, from his demeanor to his demeanor, he was humble and polite: "No need, Miss first, the little sister has not left the palace yet, I may have to wait for a while." ”

I raised my eyebrows, and was about to say something, when the sound of horses' hooves on the other side of the street was crisp, and in a short time I turned to me.

I recognized the carriage of the palace, and then said with Cheng Mu with a wry smile: "Let me go and see if this carriage is picked up by me." ”

It wasn't much funny, but he laughed aloud and stood at the door and watched me step into another car.

When I pushed the door, I saw that there were indeed people inside, also wearing official uniforms, but they were very familiar.

Facing him, I naturally changed my smiling eyes: "Is my brother going back now?" Can you take me with you? ”
