Verse 95 Alone under the lamp, who is the jade cheek blushing
Shu E helped the Queen Mother, only to feel that her hands trembled slightly. peeking at the Queen Mother, I saw that the Queen Mother's eyes were slightly red. The Queen Mother has always been very self-controlled, rarely showing joy and sorrow in front of others, and always and everywhere retains her supreme nobility. At this moment, facing the emperor, he is so full of love.
"Queen Mother......" The emperor also saw the deep love in the queen mother's eyes, and stepped forward to hold the queen mother's hand. It is said that the birthday of the child is a difficult day for the mother, listening to the rumors in the palace, the day the queen mother gave birth to herself was indeed extremely difficult and almost died. No wonder every year when it comes to her birthday, the Queen Mother has such a happy and sad look......
"Good boy." The Queen Mother patted the emperor's hand and said with a smile: "The Queen Mother said that she would give you a big gift on your birthday this year......" said and smiled slightly, and the deep smile spread like a mist, making people feel beautiful and unreal, "It's just that it's not ready yet." ”
"The queen mother has worked hard for the child in many ways, and the child is already grateful, and the queen mother really doesn't have to b......other anymore," the emperor said.
"Go on...... This gift must be what you want......" The Queen Mother said as she took Shu E's hand and turned around, and walked out of Gyeongbokgung Hall with a smile. The voice of the Queen Mother behind him echoed in the hall leisurely.
Shu E sent the Queen Mother back to Yongshou Palace, and she also returned to Yong'an Palace. The eunuchs and maids in the room all rushed up to greet them. Shu E saw that everyone wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask, and she probably wanted to ask her, since she went to the emperor's birthday banquet, why did she come back so early. Shu E told everyone that the Queen Mother was tired, so she went back to the palace early to rest, and she came back.
Everyone greeted each other and dispersed, and everyone had joy on their faces. Only Hua Fu looked as usual, but Lilac had a look of injustice and confusion on her face.
Hua Fu and Lilac followed Shu E into the inner room, the room was a little stuffy, Lilac helped Shu E to loosen her clothes, untied the water-green satin gown that accompanied the Queen Mother to the banquet, and still changed into the white silk gauze shirt worn during the day. Shu E went to the banquet with the Queen Mother, and she didn't dress up much, only wearing a pair of hairpins made of green bamboo of the Hunan concubine. Sitting in front of the dressing table, let Lilac help her change into her usual bun.
Shu E lowered her head slightly, held the fingertips of her right hand with her left hand, gently flicked it, and let Lilac comb her hair.
Seeing that the three people in the room were silent, Lilac was the first to lose her breath and called Shu'e softly, but Shu'e didn't seem to hear it, Lilac shouted again, Shu'e raised her head suddenly, and saw that in the copper mirror, Lilac's face came from behind her to her side, looking at herself in surprise.
Shu E felt that she was out of her mind, looking at Lilac's expression, she was very embarrassed, she wanted to say something, but she was a little speechless.
Lilac was even more anxious, and tried it with her hand on Shu E's forehead, her hand was a little hot, and she said anxiously: "You are really still burning, do you want to ask a medical officer to take a look?" ”
Shu E shook her head, "I'll just take a break." But his heart was troubled. Every time I touch my hand, I always feel nervous and inexplicable.
Lilac said: "You see your face is burning red, it was already all well when you went to Gyeongbokgung Hall in the evening, why is it hot again at this time?" ”
Shu E only said that there was nothing to do, and persuaded Hua Fu and Lilac not to worry. As he was talking, he heard Lin Gongcheng greeting people outside, presumably someone from the Yong'an Palace. The three of them couldn't guess who it was for a while, Hua Fu and Shu E glanced at each other, nodded, and walked out.
Outside the Yong'an Palace, Zihao had already come over to report that Wang Daguan was here.
Shu E was slightly startled, hurriedly gathered her mind, helped her hair bun, put a hairpin on it, and walked out of the house with cloves.
As soon as he walked to the door of the main room, a middle-aged and slightly chubby eunuch had already greeted him, saw Shu E, bowed down to say hello, Shu E was busy going down, and said that he didn't dare to be.
This father-in-law is the close attendant of the Queen Mother, and the deputy governor of the province is known as the sixth grade, whose full name is Wang Chengtong, and he is one of the highest-ranking eunuchs in the palace, so everyone calls him "Wang Daguan".
Seeing that Shu E was courteous and thoughtful, the senior official Wang smiled slightly, and no longer insisted on saluting, just nodded, and said, "I was ordered to come here to arrange a banquet for Mrs. Yong'an." ”
Shu E remembered that this was what the Queen Mother gave herself, and hurriedly bowed down and said: "Thank you for the Queen Mother's kindness, it's just that Shu E is humble and has no merit, so I don't dare to worship it." ”
The prince smiled quietly, "Today is the Christmas of the official family, and it is also appropriate for the lady to receive a banquet." ”
Shu E thanked the Queen Mother and the emperor, and thanked the princess, and everyone in the Yong'an Hall saluted with Shu E.
The prince smiled and clapped his hands, and in a moment, a group of palace maids held food boxes and placed them in the main room of the Yong'an Hall in turn. I could only hear the sound of rustling footsteps and the sound of placing plates, but I could not hear a single human voice. After the palace maids finished placing it, the prince took a box from the hands of a palace maid, motioned for everyone to retreat, and said with a smile: "This is a unique reward for the lady." ”
Shu E took the box, but before she had time to open it, the princess had already said goodbye and turned around, and Shu E hurriedly led everyone to the palace gate. Shu E held the box in her hand and sniffed slightly, the smell was ...... I was so puzzled, but in front of everyone, it was inconvenient to check.
When I returned to the main room, I saw a table full of delicacies, still bubbling hot. Shu E was already in a mixed mood, holding this box at the moment, smelling the smell coming from inside, and she was not in the mood to enjoy the banquet. He ordered everyone not to be formal, and to sit down to eat, but he did not sit at the table, saying that he would go back to his room to rest. Lilac wanted to serve with her, but Shu'e insisted again and again, but she had to give up.
Closing the door, Shu E only felt an inexplicable panic in her heart, although it was separated by the box, however, the smell was clearly ...... This was sent by the Queen Mother, what is the purpose?
Shu E settled down, opened the box, the black and blue bottle, the big red note, sure enough, was Yingyu wine.
Unexpectedly, the cork has been opened, the black celadon is clean and lush, and the red note with "Yingyu wine" written on it has also faded, and the smell of wine that you want to smell is coming out of this bottle. It's still the same wine, but instead of drinking it yourself, take a bottle.
Only then did Lilac tell herself that there was nothing left in the bamboo forest except a jade cup. This jade cup, or lilac sharp-eyed, was found in the grass.
So where did the bottle of wine, the glass, and the baggage wrapped in the wine go?
Since the Queen Mother sent Yingyu wine, I think these things must be in her place......
When Shu E saw this jade wine, she couldn't help but think of the fact that she was drunk at noon in the bamboo forest to celebrate the birthday of the third young master. No, it's ...... Emperor!
Disappointed? Shy? Still uneven? Shu E shook her head vigorously, trying to drive this shadow out of her mind. But just for a moment, I remembered that in Fang Cai's birthday banquet, I and the emperor went to support the queen mother, and the emperor's hand was ......
Reaching out and touching her cheeks, the tentacles were hot, Shu E was extremely upset, put down the wine and sat in front of the mirror. Pull off the hairpin and stretch out your left hand to open the mahogany gold-painted stationery on the left side of the mirror. As soon as the hand was halfway out, it couldn't help but retract again.
At the emperor's birthday banquet today, the Queen Mother left the table early, and the moment she got up, Shu'e was supporting the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother hurriedly got up, and the emperor also hurriedly stepped forward to help.
Shu E supported her right hand with her left hand, and at that moment, the emperor's hand was also supported on the back of her hand.
Alas...... Shu E sighed slightly and looked up at the mirror. Cao Shu'e in the mirror, the scar on her face has faded a lot. The skin is as bright as snow, the jade skin is creamy, and the dark and crystal eyes are shining brightly, but the cheeks are flushed, but there is a breathtaking beauty.
Shu E couldn't help but be stunned when she saw herself like this, and shook her head as much as she could, but she saw the box on the table and the bottle of wine in the mirror.
For what? The Queen Mother wants to send someone to send this?
Shu E was startled, hurriedly stood up, and looked at the bottle of Yingyu wine on the table.
The Queen Mother specially sent this, what is the purpose? Before and after the birthday banquet, the Queen Mother took herself to be kind and pleasant, obviously not to blame herself for the private sacrifice of wine. The Queen Mother was in the Yong'an Hall today, and she also said, "It is another thing for the mourning family to blame you", another thing, which thing?
Shu E hurriedly uncorked the bottle of Yingyu wine, and a faint fragrance escaped with the smell of wine. At this moment, Shu'e no longer thinks about those disturbing things, her mind is concentrated, and the Shentai gradually clears up, knowing that there must be something different in this bottle of wine. I picked up the small white porcelain glass on the table, poured a glass of wine, and when I thought about it, it seemed that it was really different from the bottle of wine I drank during the day.
Shu E's heart was very confused, she put the wine glass on the table, knowing that if she looked carefully, she would definitely find something, but she really didn't want to look at it anymore, didn't want to think about it anymore, and didn't want to know what evil intentions were hidden in these two glasses of wine, what evil intentions were hidden, and what plans were hidden.
I only heard the occasional sound of talking and clinking glasses outside, mixed with half laughter, and everyone was still eating. Shu E looked at the door panel, as if she wanted to see the person behind the door through the wooden door, and her grandfather's voice suddenly appeared in her head, and before entering the palace, she told her that she needed to guard against unpredictable people's hearts.
But I still secretly prayed in my heart, Xiaoyingzi, I hope it's not you.
It's not that she didn't have suspicions, she thought she was just drunk and fell, but her forehead was hot for a while, and she wasn't unconscious.
Shu E took a deep breath, held up a candlestick, and moved it to the table. Pick up the glass and take a closer look. Thinking back to the wine I drank today, the color was a little darker, and it seemed to be a little cloudy, but if I hadn't looked at it so closely, I wouldn't have noticed it.
Shu E picked up the glass of wine she had never drunk, took a sip to her lips, tasted it carefully, poured a little water into the jade cup she had drunk, shook it, and took a sip. Shu E doesn't understand wine, and when the wine comes to the mouth, it is generally a little spicy, but because she doesn't understand it, she only uses the most direct feeling to distinguish it, and there is indeed a difference between these two kinds of wine.
Could it be that in the bamboo forest, I am dizzy and faint, is it all because of this wine? When I came back, I couldn't wake up, and the heat didn't fade, is it also because of this wine?
However, I only drank three cups!
Shu E sat down dejectedly, and the wine glasses in both hands spilled a little on the table. Those sparkling liquids, the aroma mixed with wine, made her really unwilling to face it. Shu E blew out the candle in one breath and didn't want to look at it again.
