Chapter 157: Seeking Wealth and Danger (3)
"Then ignore it and just get in the car. If anyone is entangled, they will be out! ”
"Yes, ma'am." A flash of excitement flashed in Boss A's eyes, and he suddenly flicked a whip to urge the driving horse to speed up, and soon the carriage was outside the gate.
The two little guys were about to run down the steps to pick up the reins, but they heard Boss A shout loudly, "Remove the threshold and go straight to the door!" ”
"Yes!" The two servants hurriedly ran to open the side door, and finally moved the half-foot-high threshold together. As soon as Boss A pulled the reins, the carriage was about to enter the side door, and an old woman standing next to the luxurious carriage suddenly said loudly, "Slow! Our princess has arrived, who is in the car, and she hasn't come down to see the ceremony? ”
It's a pity that Boss A seemed to be deaf, and drove the carriage into the side door steadily, without any intention of stopping.
The old lady was so angry that she stomped her feet, lifted the corner of her skirt and ran to the door, just in time to see two maids helping a woman with a slightly bulging belly to get out of the car, so she shouted and scolded, "There are no rules, the princess has arrived, hurry up and open the middle door and kneel to welcome!" It's a pity that when the woman heard this, she only turned around and glanced at her lightly before entering the weeping flower door.
For the first time in her life, the old lady was so despised that her hair stood on end. When she was about to curse, the driver who was driving the car had already stepped forward and pushed her out of the side door, and said with a smile, "This is the Dong family, not the palace, don't find the wrong place if you play prestige." ”
"You!" The old lady blocked her throat in one breath, almost suffocated to death, and finally gritted her teeth and asked, "What about our prince, didn't you say that we would go out together?" ”
The coachman spread his hands and said casually, "Oh, you're here to find the prince, why didn't you say it earlier?" The prince has entered the palace, you go and wait outside the palace gate, don't block the alley of my house. With that, he called the two little men to close the door, and then went to the porter to drink tea.
The old lady almost had her nose flattened by the door, and she was so angry that she opened a pot in her brain, and steam was emitting along her ears. She didn't care about decency anymore, and almost trotted back to the car to add fuel and vinegar to tell her about it. Princess Liu was so hateful that she directly tore the fan in her hand, and said angrily, "Okay, good, this is the good daughter-in-law he found for me!" Hmph, before I entered the gate of the palace, I began to look at my face, really... That's great! ”
Liu Xiaozhen, who was sitting on the side, hurriedly stepped forward to comfort, "Auntie, cousin Xu was also deceived by this woman, and I didn't know that she was so rude in private. Don't be angry, or your cousin will be in a hurry. ”
"Hmph, he only has this vixen in his heart, where is his mother?" Princess Liu blushed with anger and said angrily, "We're not going anywhere, just waiting here!" I want to ask him, this is obviously the other courtyard that the emperor gave to the palace, when did he have the surname Dong? ”
The old lady and Liu Xiaozhen glanced at each other, but they didn't dare to persuade again, the two lowered their heads, one was thinking about how to provoke the princess to be angry for her, and the other was thinking about how to get some benefits in this small fight.
Murong Huaide didn't know that the old lady and daughter-in-law at home had started the ring again, and waited for him to go back to be the referee. At this time, he was pulling the loud and scolding Hongxia County Lord on the way to Shou'an Palace, originally he was going to find the emperor to comment, but it happened that today was the day when the emperor must go to Shou'an Palace every month to ask for peace, so it happened to be a spoonful of stew.
In the main hall of Shou'an Palace, this is the time to be lively. All the concubines were dressed up and dressed up, smiling and smiling in front of the queen mother and the emperor. Speaking of this year's wind and rain, it is a bumper harvest year; said that the queen mother's skin is getting whiter and tenderer, but she has hidden some beauty recipes and refuses to reward them to the juniors. The queen mother and the emperor were coaxed into laughter, and from time to time they rewarded some jewelry and clothing, which provoked the concubines to do their best, and their tongues were as bright as lotus.
It was such a lively and harmonious time that the little eunuch on duty outside the hall suddenly ran in to report, saying that the prince of Zhongshan and the lord of Hongxia asked to meet.
Hearing this, others gave up, but the Queen Mother was the first to turn cold, and scolded her niece and granddaughter in her heart. It's a shame that she's been hurting since she was a child, why doesn't this stupid girl have a brain? Didn't she already make it clear yesterday afternoon, although the prince of Zhongshan is also her nominal grandson, but he can't make the decision about his marriage at all. Even if she can call the shots, she will not risk being suspicious of the emperor to complete their marriage.
Could it be that this stupid girl still hasn't given up, and the two of them actually ran to beg for permission together?
The emperor has some confidence in his heart, after all, the nephew begged him to give him the title of peasant daughter as the princess of the world when he first entered the palace. But after listening to the words of the little eunuch, he couldn't help but wonder, how did his nephew get mixed up with the queen mother's niece and granddaughter?
"Let them in." The emperor spoke, and the little eunuch immediately trotted out to deliver the message, leaving all the concubines to carefully look at the faces of the queen mother and the emperor, secretly suppressing the curiosity in their hearts.
Soon, Murong Huaide walked in with the Hongxia County Lord. Everyone was taken aback when they saw that the Hongxia County Lord's hair was scattered, his eyes were red and swollen from crying, and he looked like a wolf.
The Queen Mother frowned even more distressedly, but before she could ask, Murong Huaide had already knelt down with a puff and pleaded loudly, "My nephew begs the emperor's uncle for mercy and allows me to set off and return to the north immediately!" Although this Kyoto is good, if my nephew lives any longer, I am afraid that his family will be ruined and his face will be trampled into the mud pit. Uncle Huang, please allow me to leave Beijing! ”
The concubines in the palace all entered the palace at a young age, although they were rich and prosperous, but they left a trace of regret in the deepest part of their hearts. Who doesn't like the handsome and dashing Pianpian son, who doesn't want to whisper under the moon before the moon? But the truth is cruel, they can only dress up and try their best to please the emperor who is over half a hundred years old, and the little thoughts in their hearts can only be left in their dreams.
And this is almost the prince of Zhongshan who fell from the sky, not only looks masculine and handsome, but even has all-round talents in civil and military affairs, satisfying all women's dreams of future husbands. Although many concubines treat each other like elders every time they meet, they have a hint of admiration hidden in private.
At this moment, they saw the handsome and dashing noble son kneeling on the ground, tears falling down in tears, as if he was trying his best to suppress his sadness, and his voice was trembling, so they secretly twisted their veils with pity.
One of the most favored concubines was sitting next to the emperor, so she pretended to be curious and surprised, and asked softly, "Your Majesty, the concubine has never seen His Royal Highness the Prince like this, what kind of grievance has he suffered?" ”
The emperor nodded, to be honest, he really loved this nephew in his heart, and if he was his own son, he would definitely let him inherit the throne. It's a pity that he was born in the royal brother's mansion, but he has to be more guarded. However, precautions are precautions, this child is the bloodline of the Murong family after all, how can outsiders be bullied?
Thinking like this, he personally got up and helped his nephew up, and said in a deep voice, "A good man stands up to the sky, bleeding without tears!" Why are you so unproductive, let's say, who wronged you? ”
Murong Huaide helped the emperor's hand to get up with gratitude on his face, and said with grief and indignation, "Uncle Huang knows, my nephew left home at a young age, and he has eaten countless hardships outside. Two years ago, my nephew married a daughter from a good family in the Northland, Dong's wife, although Dong has an ordinary appearance and a pungent temperament, but her nephew has many nephews who have to be carefully cared for, and even the family relies on her to grow fruits to maintain.
The nephew was grateful, and vowed to let her live a worry-free life. Since entering Beijing, the emperor's uncle and grandmother have treated their nephews with kindness and many rewards. The nephew was overjoyed and took the pregnant Dong over. I was thinking of a family reunion, but today on the street, someone maliciously drove a carriage and slammed into Dong's family, almost killing two corpses! ”
As he spoke, tears appeared in his eyes again, and he choked up, "Uncle Huang, as a man, my nephew can't protect the safety of his wife and children, and my nephew really has no shame to live in Kyoto." Ask the emperor's uncle to allow his nephew to go out of Beijing, and his nephew will go back to the north! It is desolate, but there is no wicked man to oppress it..."
"Shut up, what kind of nonsense is this. The dignified prince of Zhongshan, with royal blood, how could he be scared to leave Kyoto because of this little thing? If it spreads, where will the royal face go? ”
The emperor glared, and finally glanced at Hongxia crooked at the queen mother's feet, like a mirror in his heart. Needless to say, the wicked person in the nephew's mouth is this unruly girl?
The Queen Mother was also flushed at this time, and she was very annoyed. In private, it's easy to say anything. But now that the court is public, the concubines are crowded into the house, and their nieces and granddaughters are sued by the emperor and grandson to the emperor, even if they distinguish the merits, their Zhao family's face is not good-looking. What's more, although the emperor didn't say it explicitly, he was protecting his nephew in and out of his words.
The Queen Mother stretched out her hand and pulled Hongxia, who was still a little stunned, and asked in a low voice with anger, "Hongxia, what the hell is going on, the wicked person Qiu'er said is you?" Why don't you stay at home and run the street to do something, even if you go out and find a good driver, why do you almost hit someone? ”
The old lady's words sounded nothing wrong at first glance, but the house was full of human spirits, who couldn't guess the meaning of shirk? But the queen mother has a noble status, and no one will be stupid enough to expose it.
Hongxia County didn't know how many swore secretly along the way, and when he saw the imperial aunt and grandmother, he must cry well. As a result, before she could be wronged, the heroic man she had admired for a long time cried first, which completely subverted all her cognition, and shocked her into jealousy and suspected that she had been broken by the saddle on the road, and hallucinated.
At this time, she was suddenly woken up by the Queen Mother, she was still in a trance, and replied vaguely, "Oh, Grandma, I just saw that woman was hateful, and I wanted to scare her, but I didn't want to kill her..."
When all the concubines heard this, they all lowered their heads and drank tea, and secretly laughed in their hearts that the Zhao family was really a good daughter, at this time, if they insisted that this matter was a misunderstanding, no one could do anything to her. But she was okay and admitted it directly, which was really stupid.
