Early the next morning, when Wei Wan was having breakfast at Mrs. Zhuang's side, she saw that the chariot with black head and blue curtain pulled by four horses had been prepared in the courtyard.

After the meal, Weiwan didn't go back to the house, and planned to talk to Zhuang Fu and get in the car.

Mrs. Zhuang sent away the people in the house and whispered to Weihuan: "When you go to the Qingping Palace, you can see people if you can see them, and come back if you can't see them, and what you see and hear will rot in your stomach, and you must not tell people." ”

Traveling by herself, Mrs. Zhuang has never been so uneasy to order. Wei Wan was surprised and said, "What did Mother hear?" ”

Because she had just had breakfast, Mrs. Zhuang leaned on the beauty of Xiangfei's bamboo weaving to recuperate. She slowly shook the gold peony folding fan in her hand, and only said after a while: "I heard a few rumors behind the scenes, saying that the county lord eloped with the son of the Shen family and was arrested by the two families. The saint has been ill for a long time, and they are all acting as the government of the Tai * son. When the prince heard this, he was furious, and he was going to punish him severely, but the county lord was about to make peace, and it was not good for this matter to get out, so he suppressed it. The Shen family was severely reprimanded, seized real power, and only retained the title. also forced the Shen family to betrothed to the son. The county lord was also taken care of, saying that he would be married soon. ”

Wei Wan was shocked. "And pro?"

Mrs. Zhuang said sarcastically: "This time, our dynasty was defeated miserably on the battlefield in the northeast, and I couldn't slow down for a while. The good situation was ruined by mediocrity. When the prince was in power, he was unable to resist Beiming, so he agreed to Beiming's request. A few days ago, the will of the relatives had been made - it was a pity for the county lord of Wanhua. He sighed again and again.

Wei Wan was shocked and angry. Wei Hong, a villain who has no word to believe! On the surface, he promised to do well, but behind his back, he betrayed the county lord of Wanhua and asked her to kiss! No wonder Wanhua County took the plunge and eloped. It's just that it's not easy for small families to elope, and big families like Qingping Wangfu and Jihou Mansion have many servants and many people who know them, how can they elope successfully? I'm afraid that I will be arrested before I reach the city gate. The most hateful thing is that he also forced Jihoufu to hurriedly betrothed to the prince, but he just wanted the county lord of Wanhua to look at his beloved woman who belonged to other women from now on, and then he had no chance with her, so that she would die!

Lord Wanhua doesn't know how much pain in his heart!

What a cruel thought!

Weiwan said goodbye to Mrs. Zhuang with anger and sorrow for the lord of Wanhua, and boarded the car to go to the Qingping Palace.

The aconitum blue curtain car ran all the way through the bluestone road, out of Zhaochun Street, and arrived at the Qingping Palace, which is located in the south of the imperial city.

The car stopped in front of the vermilion gate of the palace.

The criminal woman said outside the car: "Lady, the palace has arrived, and the slave and maid have invited the captain of the guard to send the stickers." ”

Wei Wan glanced at Rubing, who was sitting with Pan Zi, and said lightly: "There is Mother Lao." ”

But whoever goes out of the palace, these people from the prince's house will follow.

The car waited at the gate for a long time. Wei Wan thought that if something like this happened to the county lord of Wanhua, the people in the palace probably wouldn't let the county lord of Wanhua receive her, if so, how to let the county lord know that she was coming? Just as he was thinking about it, a voice sounded outside the car window, and said loudly: "The housekeeper of the contemptible palace invites the daughter of Jinghou Mansion to enter the mansion." ”

Weiwan's heart suddenly let go, and she said in the car: "There is a labor housekeeper." ”

The guards stopped at the door. The steward of the palace and his servants escorted the chariots and horses on their way. At one point, the carriage immediately ascended the ballast steps, crossed the high threshold, and drove straight into the palace.

The carriage and horses stopped halfway, but Wan knew that she had arrived at the inner house, and was just about to get off the car and change the light car in the house, when she heard a mother-in-law say: "The petite doesn't have to work, and the villain can only change the horse." ”

After a few moments, the car continued to go.

Pan Zi gently lifted the curtain of the carriage and saw that the Houfu horse pulling the cart had been replaced by a donkey tamed with silk flowers around the neck of the palace.

Wei Wan was anxious, so she felt that time was passing slowly, and she didn't know how long it took before the car stopped again.

Someone under the car came to invite and said, "Please get out of the car." Then the curtain was raised.

Wei Wan heard that familiar voice, helped Pan Zi's hand and got out of the car, and saw Rui Xue, the personal maid of the lord of Wanhua, and several women in palace clothes standing in front of the car and bowing to her.

Wei Wan looked at the palace women a few times, and saw that their faces were like frost, their expressions were solemn, and some of them also implied arrogance, how could they have the deferential appearance that a slave should have? Presumably, these people must not be from the Qingping Palace.

Looking at Ruixue Goose Egg with a smile on her face, the tips of her thin distant mountain eyebrows are slightly frowned, implying uneasiness and sorrow.

With her friendship with the county lord of Wanhua, now she asked an uneasy maid to pick her up, but she didn't see the county lord himself, probably the county lord looked like he couldn't get out.

Wei Wan pretended not to know, and asked with a smile: "Is the county lord good?" ”

Rui Xue glanced at the palace women, and said with a smile: "Back to the lady's words." The county lord was given a title a few days ago, and she is already a princess. Our princess is well. The princess invited the lady to sit in the room. ”

Wei Wan nodded, and took Pan Zi's hand into the beautiful hanging flower door in front of her, which was decorated with strange flowers and plants.

Inside the gate is a wide courtyard, with rockeries piled up in the yard, strange stones, and a small stream flowing through; On the rockery, beside the strange rocks and by the stream, all kinds of orchids are planted, and the orchid leaves are stretched out and the flowers are graceful.

At the end of the orchid, there are five main houses, and there are three side rooms on each side, which are connected into a hollow circular corridor by the hand-copying verandah. The green brick road winds its way through.

At the door of the main house, in the four corners of the verandah, there were stout palace maids wearing rose-red and blue dresses standing with their hands down, looking at Wei Wan coming, and they all bowed their knees. All of them held their breath, and their occasionally rolling eyes were full of vigilance.

It seems that Princess Wanhua is regarded very strictly, and she is not as good as herself. I can still come out and walk around, but Princess Wanhua is afraid that she is not allowed to go out for a step, otherwise why don't you see her to greet her?

Wei Wan thought about it, gave up the verandah, and walked on the road to the main house.

Before entering the door, Wei Wan glanced at Pan Zi and Rubing and instructed them: "You wait outside." The two men bowed and said yes, and they both stopped at the door.

Ruixue lifted the curtain and invited Weihuan to enter the door. She served Weihuan herself, put the curtain in, and stood quietly under the porch with Pan Zirubing.

As soon as the curtain was lowered, it was dark in front of her eyes.

The room was covered with a veil that blocked out the light, and it was dim and gloomy.

A woman stood with her back to her in front of the black-lacquered Dobaoge, pulling a slit in the gauze curtain and looking out the window.

The crack penetrated a ray of sunlight, shining on the back of her neck and back, a trace of snow muscle and a big red makeup shirt, reflected in the light on the gorgeous and noble peony bun, full of golden hairpins and hostas.

The woman didn't move, as if she was nostalgic for the sun, intoxicated and forgot the world outside her.

Wei Wan had an illusion, only to feel that the pearls on the hairpin head and the jade treasures on the multi-treasure grid were glowing with cold light, like shining nails, nailing people to the wall like butterfly specimens, unable to move.
