The morning light is shining. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The early summer is already sultry, Ruosu got up, first bathed, groomed and dressed very carefully, cleverly hidden, not sloppy.
It turned out that Chu Chen brought her a blue emerald smoke shirt, a pleated skirt with scattered flowers, mist and green grass, and a forbidden step embellishment around it, which looked very locked, and it was light and elegant when worn on the body.
Size..... It's really suitable.
Although Su has not yet reached the hair, but the tall man is no longer suitable for combing double buns, Qiaoyan combed her into a bun, the jade hairpin is loose and loose, and then inserted a hanging silver silk tassel jade seven gold hairpins, simple and elegant but dignified. In the summer, this kind of bun is a lot more comfortable.
Qiao Yun looked at Ruo Su in the bronze mirror and said, "Miss, Mrs. Chu has explained that you don't have to make up." ”
Qiao Yan also looked at her with approval: "From the perspective of the slave maid, there is no need, our young lady is an outstanding appearance, or don't wear makeup, don't let someone come to the door to ask for marriage when the time comes, and the uncle is so unhappy!" ”
Ruosu also means this, she thinks it is very troublesome to wash her makeup after returning home, and with that kung fu, she can study a few pages of medical books. As for Baihu, the cheap uncle, Ruosu is full of respect, compared to Uncle Qiao and Second Master Qiao, the weight of family affection he brought to Ruosu will never be forgotten for the rest of her life.
The carriage of Chengenbo Mansion staggered from the shadow wall, and the white tiger was not used to sitting in a sedan chair, he was wearing an official robe, riding on a tall horse, with a handsome appearance and a lofty spirit. In fact, these days, among the people who come to the door to ask for relatives, there are both those who want to marry Ruosu, and those who want to ask him as a son-in-law.
He is used to being wild and casual, and he doesn't like decent ladies the most.
The carriage stopped in front of the palace gate, the sun rose at this time, the dazzling golden light obliquely shone on the dragon of the relief, the yellow wall and vermilion tiles, the painted top pillars, the solemnity and grandeur of the imperial city were more magnificent than imagined.
In addition to the sedan chair in Chengenbo's Mansion, there were officials who brought their wives here one after another, and if she saw Mrs. Hou and Chu Chen inadvertently, she noticed that Mrs. Hou also saw her, but it seemed to be a 'hum', and she looked away again.
Soon, the officials followed the palace people into the palace from one side, while the female dependents were led by the Minions on the other side.
Before the banquet began, the wife and the female dependents were going to the harem to meet the Queen Mother, Ruo Su was afraid that she was the only one who did not have a title, but many noble ladies had seen her and were very friendly to her, even Mrs. Hou's indifference was ignored, you must know that the wife of the Hou of Zhenbei was in the circle of these ladies, but the stars held the moon, and now she only felt that someone had robbed her of the limelight, and this person was about to rob her eldest son!
How can people not be depressed!
"Which ready-to-wear shop is the white girl's dress today? I've never seen this style, but it looks really good. The lady of the servant said.
At the same time, it attracted the side eyes of many noble ladies, looking at Ruosu's slender waist and slight steps, exquisite and graceful, and also felt that the dress on her body was particularly good-looking, and the concubine room in the inner courtyard was like an undefeated flower, and they also wanted to compete for beauty.
"I see that the white girl's hair bun is also unique, but what is the origin?" I don't know which lady added another sentence.
Ruo Suyi replied with a faint smile, and complained bitterly in her heart, she didn't know where Chu Chen got the dress, let alone her own hair bun, but she had heard that the ladies would choose different hair buns for different occasions, so as to match the corresponding headwear.
But Qiaoyan has always been by her side, where would that girl understand this, just to be cool, if it is winter, she will definitely not comb such a bun.
Ruo Su said: "The ladies smiled, the dress and hair bun on my body are the usual of ordinary ladies, and they are really not as luxurious and decent as the ladies, and they are not worth mentioning." "It's normal for a famous doctor to be cold.
Ruosu remembered that last time, she was only 'enthusiastic' to a lady who was suffering from stomach problems, and the lady invited her to play dominoes every few days, which was really annoying, and she couldn't refuse directly, so she really couldn't, so she asked Qiao Ruojiao to accompany her, and for this reason, Qiao Ruojiao also 'blackmailed' her a lot of benefits.
Therefore, Ruosu felt that it was appropriate to be 'cold and arrogant' for these noble ladies.
Mrs. Li has passed Wuxun, and the last time her husband came to the door to ask for marriage was refused, she looked at Ruosu not very pleasantly, but when she heard her speak, she felt gentle and cute, thinking that this must be a ghost that Cheng Enbo did behind her back. Originally, Mrs. Zhenbei Hou was invited to be a matchmaker, but she refused sharply, and Lord Li went into battle in person for the sake of his grandson. Who would have thought that the White Tiger would use Scholar Li's face as a rag to wipe it!
The ladies entered the harem, according to the title level and the size of the husband's official position in the family, the eunuch led into the Queen Mother's Cining Palace, after the salute, and sat in turn, Ruosu's position was arranged on the side of Mrs. Hou.
She felt that it didn't matter, that is, Mrs. Hou was sitting on pins and needles, and she had committed the old problem of headaches for many years. Zhenbei Hou said first, let her not interfere in the marriage of her eldest son, she was dissatisfied with Ruosu, at this moment can only be 'compromised', Mrs. Hou feels that the 'qi' in this life has been used up in Ruosu.
The queen mother sat on the bright yellow phoenix chair, her complexion was sallow, her physique was thin, and the luxurious robe was worn on her, which was already loose and saggy, and the whole person was not in good spirits, but she was struggling to deal with the women.
It seems that the rumors from the outside world are true, and the Queen Mother has been ill for a long time.
The women who came had met the Queen Mother a few times, and the Queen Mother's decadent eyes swept over everyone's faces, and she saw a strange and beautiful little face, she looked at Ruosu and asked: "You are the daughter of Bai Qishan, Bai Ruosu?" "The voice is weak.
Ruo Su got up and knelt down towards the Queen Mother Yingying: "Back to the Queen Mother, the daughter of the people is the daughter of the Bai family." ”
In addition to knowing that she was the daughter of Bai Qishan, the queen mother also knew that she was the descendant of the Zhen family..... The Queen Mother sighed slightly, knowing in her heart that the emperor was still jealous of her! .
The first prince is her son, and the current emperor is also her biological son, the palms and backs of his hands are meat, and the previous dynasties are Chu, not the eldest or the heir, the first prince is a legitimate prince, but ..... Some people have wolf ambitions, that is, they are not satisfied with the position of the vassal king, and they hurt her, a white-haired person who is a mother, to send a black-haired person, and the most pitiful thing is her sensible granddaughter, Zhu Ling'er.
The spies sent out by the Queen Mother, when they found the corpse, the small body had been burned beyond recognition, how could she not be heartbroken!
The emperor's ruthlessness is very similar to the first emperor, the man who has snubbed him all his life.
When people are about to die, they will always think of the past in their lives, and the Queen Mother said silently: "Get up, the mourning family and you can be regarded as having an eye relationship, Lord Bai once found the Taoist practice of Maoshan for the mourning family, so that the mourning family can solve the insomnia for many years, which can be regarded as meritorious; Speaking of which, the mourning family still remembers the scene when your mother entered the palace for the first time, and you are somewhat similar to your mother. ”
The ladies listened to the dialogue between the Queen Mother and Ruosu, and said in their hearts that the Bai family was about to rise, some people were glad that their husbands did not fall into the well at the beginning, and some people were entangled, whether to rebuild the relationship with the Bai family? How to repair is also a problem, Bai Ruosu and Bai Hu are both elusive personalities, and they can't do what they like.
Ruosu sat down again, she didn't have much affection for Qiao Moning, when she was in Qiao's house in her last life, she was still young, but she had seen this aunt a few times, and she was a gentle beauty.
The Queen Mother said again: "It's also a poor person, and you died after giving birth." Speaking of this, she looked at Ruosu, only saw the girl's graceful appearance, not sad, only peaceful and plain, so she felt that she should not cause others to be sad, so she asked: "Does the white girl have a marriage match?" ”
As soon as these words came out, the eyes of all the ladies swept over in unison, and Ruosu only felt uncomfortable, and Mrs. Hou had a 'life without love' on her face.
Ruosu nodded: "Well, my father has made a marriage contract for the people's daughter, but the people's daughter is still young, so I haven't mentioned it." ”
Mrs. Li suddenly realized that Bai Hu rejected the Li family like that, it turned out that Bai Ruosu had already been married, and now her heart is gradually becoming more comfortable.
The Queen Mother asked, "Which son?" The mourning family may still recognize it. ”
Now, Mrs. Hou's whole person is not very good, she used her brain for the marriage of her eldest son, but now that the marriage of her eldest son has been settled, she doesn't even want her brain with a headache.
Ruo Su didn't think that there was anything embarrassing for her to admit the marriage, and she was now wondering if she would make Mrs. Hou angry again if she clarified her relationship with the Chu family in front of half of the noblewomen's circle in the capital. Ruo Su knew Mrs. Hou's physical condition, if she was really angry, it would really not be good to completely cure it.
The master said that for the sake of the doctor, she has to think about the patient, she can't be so selfish, but if she prevaricates in the past, when she marries Chu Chen, it will definitely cause the queen mother to be dissatisfied, after all, Chu Chen is not an ordinary son-in-law.
Just as she was about to say something, the Queen Mother suddenly coughed, her voice sounded extremely painful, and the old lady who was waiting next to her stepped forward to feed the medicine, and the palace maid and the eunuch in charge of Cining Palace had an ugly face: "The Queen Mother is in poor health, and the ladies will avoid it first, the Imperial Garden has set up a stage, and the ladies can go to listen to the play." ”
In this way, everyone was led out of Cining Palace by the palace people, it was chaotic and noisy, and the noblewomen looked at each other, knowing that the emperor did not want to see the queen mother, but because of the name of "filial piety", the queen mother was raised in the harem.
When Ruosu arrived at the Imperial Garden, he saw Qiao Ruoxi sitting beside the emperor, as if he was very fond of him. In addition to her, the crown prince Zhu Yunhong sat on the other side of the emperor.
Now that only the honest and gentle Concubine Duan is left in the harem, no one dares to bully Qiao Jieyu.
The seats of the officials are on the left, and the ladies are arranged on the right, separated by a long aisle, lined with peonies, which are luxurious, just like the nobles who live in this palace.
Kunqu opera was the most popular among the magnates of the dynasty, and the palace was no exception.
The stage has long been sung, the play is like life, life is like a play, it depends on who is the deepest into the play.
After a song, the emperor raised his glass to Shi Longen: "Everyone loves Qing, and drink." "Before the banquet, all I drank was tea.
After half a pillar of incense, the celebrant and eunuch sang: "Serve!" "It's the beginning of the feast.
After three rounds of drinking, the emperor chatted with the ministers for a few words, and with a female dependent, it would definitely not be a major national event.
The emperor suddenly spoke: "Which one is Bai Aiqing's daughter?" I had heard Qiao Jieyu mention it a long time ago, but I never had the opportunity to see it. "The reputation of Zhen's medical skills has been famous all over the country a hundred years ago, and when Mr. Zheng sailed to the South Seas, he brought back a blue-eyed and brown-haired Nanyang man, who also presented the seeds and planting methods of maize, in order to learn from the teacher, but he was still rejected.
As soon as the old emperor's words fell, Chu Chen's cup in his hand froze, and his eyes looked at the women's seat attentively, and at the same time, Wen Tianyou also looked over.
Both of them had a drastic change in their expressions.
The emperor's words sound no different, and a careful product is really picky.
Ruo Su got up quietly, when she walked out of the women's seat, her dress swayed with the wind, and she always lowered her eyes after standing still, she carried the skirt, knelt on her knees, and hit the white jade ground on her waist, making a crisp and pleasant sound, and the skirt spread out like lotus petals.
The old emperor put down the cup, and looked at the smooth and white forehead of the girl not far away with dark eyes.
Ruo Su said: "The people's daughter Bai Ruosu knocked to see the emperor, long live long live long live." There was no wave.
Chu Chen's eyes dimmed, and he glanced at Mrs. Hou on the women's seat, but Mrs. Hou didn't want to pay attention to her son, and she didn't notice her son's intentions at all.
The old emperor paused, and Qiao Jieyu beside him reminded: "Your Majesty, my cousin's body is weak, and I am afraid that I will hurt my muscles and bones if I kneel for a long time." ”
Zhu Yunhong also said: "Father, my sons often hear Lord Bai mention his beloved daughter, saying that she is stubborn, but when I see it today, it is not true." He had already seen Ruosu, and he knew very well whether he was stubborn or not.
Right now, Concubine Duan and the rest of Jieyu are also abnormal.
The old emperor laughed loudly: "Get up, today's banquet is also a celebration banquet, how can Bai Aiqing guard Lingnan for me, and I can't return to Beijing for the time being, Aiqing has no children under her knees, and the glory of the white girl is not hindered." ”
"The people's daughter, thank the emperor for his longen." Ruosu got up, still lowering his eyebrows.
Uncle Qiao was also at the banquet, and he couldn't figure out the meaning of the emperor, and he had asked someone to bring letters to Qiao Ruoxi several times, but they were all in vain, and now he was wondering whether to start with Bai Ruosu.....
Concubine Duan spoke at this time: "Your Majesty, judging from the concubines, the white girl's age is similar to Rui'er, I don't know if the white girl has a marriage match?" "The reason why a dull person is stupid is that she is too eager to win over the Bai family without seeing the situation clearly.
The white tiger in the men's seat almost choked on a sip of wine, and his handsome face was ugly, and he really wanted to pull out Concubine Duan and beat him up before he could relieve his anger. The tenth prince, Zhu Rui, has inferior talents, looks average, and is a submissive character, so he still wants to fight his good niece's idea?
In the end, in front of the emperor, the white tiger endured again and again.
Qiao Ruoxi's red lips were slightly raised, and she felt extremely funny about Concubine Duan's behavior, she didn't understand how a woman like Concubine Duan sat on the throne of a concubine, and how she gave birth to a dragon heir?
In this harem, people without brains can live to this day, and it can be regarded as the smoke of the ancestral tomb.
The old emperor didn't know what he was thinking, his tiger eyes were uncertain, and Qiao Ruoxi smiled on the side: "Sister Speaking of the Ten Princes, the concubines think that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is also unmarried." ”
Wen Tianyou squinted, his eyes were sharp, and he could see at a glance that Ruo Su was restless, should he help her? And how to help the best? But when I think about it, if she wasn't that person, wouldn't she be a white gang?
Ruo Su stood upright, always silent, she clenched her hands, and she didn't know what Chu Chen was planning, did she need to find out the marriage by herself? The emperor really wants her to marry one of the princes, right?
When the wind blows, the girl's eyebrows and eyes are picturesque, without powder, but the delicate lips are like containing Zhu Dan, which is terrifying and bright.
The old emperor took a sip of wine and became a little impatient with the beautiful prince beside him.
But all men know what such a light of eyes means.
Chu Chen got up, stepped forward in a few steps, lifted his robe, hugged his fists and knelt down: "Your Majesty, Weichen has something to say." "The voice is sonorous and powerful.
He knelt beside Ruo Su, one of them was bright and elegant, the other was handsome and handsome, although they were a few years apart, they looked like a perfect match, Mrs. Hou thought she was dazzled, and she didn't think of what the eldest son wanted to do for a while, and when she realized it, it was too late.
Chu Chen looked sideways slightly, and at this time Ruo Su was also looking at him, the two looked at each other, he smiled gently in her shallow eyes, like a flower blooming, and the wind blowing the spring dawn.
Wen Tianyou had no intention of seeing this scene. My heart tightened, and I felt like I had gained and lost.
The old emperor smiled: "Aiqing might as well say it if you have something to say." "He didn't let Ruosu return to his position, and he didn't know if he wanted to? Or is it unintentional?
However, Chu Chen was no longer worried, he said: "Back to the emperor, Weichen has long been married to Bai Ruosu, at first because she was still young, she did not make it public, this matter is Weichen's negligence, and I hope the emperor will forgive the sin." ”
Mrs. Hou felt like she was going to faint.
Half a life confused
PS: There is a shift at 8 p.m.
Mrs. Hou, why can't you think about it....... In the future, I don't have to worry about my son's marriage, and I don't have to worry about my son's xin orientation, what a good thing! The point is that in the future, there is no need to queue up for medical treatment.........
