125 Autumn Hong Brocade is more favored
When Mu Qianlan dressed up and arrived at Fengqi Palace, there were already a lot of people in the hall, but Mu Qianlan didn't care about looking at these people first, but just bowed to the ground to meet the empress. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The Empress let her be spared, and then smiled and gave her seat. Mu Qianlan only then had time to look at the surrounding environment. On the two chairs under the right side of the empress sat the two brothers and sisters of King Hailin.
Rao is Mu Qianlan is used to seeing handsome men and beautiful women in later generations, but I have to admit that these two brothers and sisters are definitely the best in terms of appearance alone.
King Hailin's facial features are as angular as carving, and the pair of slender peach blossom eyes under the sword eyebrows inadvertently reveal not affection but essence, from the first time he saw him, Mu Qianlan felt that the man in front of him would definitely not be as harmless as he appeared, but a person with a lot of city government and scheming.
And the appearance of the lord of Luobei and the king of Hailin is vaguely similar, and she is wearing a light blue palace dress at this time, which makes people feel more and more dignified and beautiful. She powdered slightly, her willow eyebrows were lightly painted with green silk on her head, and she was fixed on the top of her head with a gorgeous crested hairpin, revealing her delicate neck, which was simply a sight to behold.
Mu Qianlan felt slightly bitter in his heart, no wonder he liked her, such a beauty, even he would probably like it, not to mention that Qiao Chengyi is a man after all, how can he not have a love for beauty?
Suppressing the bitterness in her heart, Mu Qianlan smiled faintly and stepped forward to salute a few people, the empress has already been exempted, naturally no one would give Mu Qianlan such an eye-opening ceremony, so Mu Qianlan just casually saluted, but she was not embarrassed.
After the salute one by one. Mu Qianlan thanked the empress in advance, and then sat down in the second place on the empress's left hand under the guidance of the female history in the palace.
This seat was something Mu Qianlan didn't expect, according to her thoughts, this son should be left by the empress to Yang Lan, right, but let herself sit it?
After sitting down, Mu Qianlan secretly raised her eyes to look at the empress, and saw that the empress's expression was the same as always, so she was relieved. It seems that I am not sitting in the wrong place!
I thought to myself. Mu Qianlan glanced at the empress sitting upright above.
The Empress was actually an extremely beautiful woman. Although he is already middle-aged, perhaps because he grew up in the palace, he does not look old, if he looks rough. It's just like being in your thirties. The face is more than ten years younger than his actual age.
She wore a bright yellow palace dress. The cuffs are embroidered with gold and silver threads with delicate and luxurious phoenix peony patterns, if you don't know, you will definitely not feel that this person in front of you is the world's honor. But if it's a careful person. You can see that the hem of the long skirt is densely embroidered with dragon pattern water feet, which undoubtedly shows her identity and status that is different from ordinary women.
The empress is a very generous woman, perhaps because of how many years of court experience, she has a momentum that no one else can compare. In her gestures, it is enough to show her extraordinary bearing, even if she is wearing regular clothes, she can't hide her supreme brilliance at all.
It's just that even if it is a banquet today, Her Majesty's face still has a hint of melancholy, and a pair of beautiful eyebrows are frowning in one place, which makes people want to reach out and caress it away. I don't know, what is the woman in front of me melancholy?
Mu Qianlan thought to herself, and then thought of some rumors in the palace that she had heard recently, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh in her heart. In this life, the empress has worked hard for the sake of the great Qi country, and even gave up all her happiness as a woman, and she is really not a happy person, no wonder she is so sad.
"I'm late." Before Mu Qianlan could speak, he heard a refreshing voice coming from the door of the main hall, but it was not Yang Lan who arrived.
"It's not that you're late, I'll give you a penalty for drinking later." Seeing Yang Lan, the sadness on the empress's face dissipated a little, and she said with a slight smile.
"I heard that Your Majesty has a new jar of wine, and I am thinking about how to make you cut your love." After Yang Lan saluted the empress, he said with a smile.
The empress looked at Yang Lan like this, and smiled helplessly: "This is what you said, in the future, I will let you enter the palace less, otherwise if you come once, I will have fewer good things." ā
This kind of dialogue is that the two princes who are candidates for heirship and the lord of Luobei, who is deeply loved by the empress, dare not say it, but Yang Lan is different, he can just say that this is the difference between getting along with each other since childhood, even if there is no blood relationship, but living together for many years, this relationship has long exceeded ordinary feelings, and it is no different from the relationship between mother and son.
Yang Lan didn't say a word, and then didn't wait for the empress to speak, so he took the initiative to sit down under Mu Qianlan.
The empress looked at it, but she was interested, this kid, it was rare to sit down so actively, every time he came to the palace before, he would pick and choose, saying that this place was not suitable for him, and that he hated to sit with someone.
"You look good today, it's really different from when you were in Changhe County before. I almost didn't recognize it, you're going to dress up like this in the future, you look good. Yang Lan said to Mu Qianlan with fun.
Mu Qianlan smiled softly and said: "This is Your Majesty's new reward, and it is the first time I have worn it, and I feel that the color is a little delicate." ā
Mu Qianlan is already in her thirties, but now from the eyes of outsiders, she is a teenage girl, and if she dresses old-fashioned, it will make people feel weird, so she has to dress up brightly and lively.
This dress was sent to her by Her Majesty the Empress yesterday, and she went to the banquet today, and after watching it for a long time, she chose this set of goose-yellow and dark-flowered gowns with willow green silver silk stripe dress. After all, it is the queen's banquet, and the queen is recovering from a serious illness, so she naturally likes festive colors, although this set is not a red and green color, but it is also a bright color, and the queen will be happier when she sees it.
"This is a good thing, I remember that this material is called Qiu Hongjin, the process is very complicated, it was sent to the palace some time ago, it seems that the total only got these two horses, I still think who is lucky to go, I don't want Your Majesty to give it to you." Yang Lan has a good memory, and soon remembered the origin of this material, and said it in a bala bara manner.
The Empress listened. He smiled and said, "When will you worry about this?" It's hard for you to remember. ā
"This material is so rare, I just happened to see it again, so I remembered it." The corners of Yang Lan's eyes and eyebrows were full of smiles.
He wouldn't tell the empress that the reason why he remembered these two horses was because he had moved his mind after seeing them before, and wanted to ask the empress for them to give to Mu Qianlan.
The yield of autumn brocade is small, and the color is generally dark, it is rare to have such a delicate color. And he felt that at the empress's age, she probably refused to wear such a bright color, but Qianlan only came to the palace. The clothes you wear are inevitably a little unacceptable. So this material is more suitable for Qianlan.
I don't want him to say that the empress has already made clothes and rewarded Qianlan, but it also saves him a lot of effort.
Lord Luobei's face was originally quite good, but his heart fluctuated slightly. She felt that Mu Qianlan, a folk girl, was above her like this. I actually sat down on the lower left side of the Empress. And he sat next to Qiao Chengyi. This already made her feel very uncomfortable, but she could still endure it.
But now after listening to Yang Lan's words, he is really a little annoyed. A pair of eyes that were originally very delicate carried a trace of resentment and viciousness that should not be noticed.
In the past, if there was such a good thing, His Majesty would definitely be the first to think of her, but now, there are two horses, and they are all given to Mu Qianlan. I didn't even think about giving myself a horse, when did she become so unpopular? Mu Qianlan is really her nemesis, since she arrived in the palace, nothing has gone well for herself, in the past, the empress would summon her into the palace every few days, but this time, it has been almost a month, and the empress has not summoned her once, if it goes on like this, will the empress forget that there is also a lord of Luobei?
Lord Luobei thought about it, and a pair of hands were already pinched together in his sleeves.
"What about your father? Why hasn't it arrived yet? The empress looked at Yang Lan and asked.
"I don't know this, I came when I got the news at home, and my father should still be on the court." Yang Lan picked up the fragrant tea held by the palace maid and sniffed it lightly and said, "This tea is not as good as the tea in Qianlan's house, and I don't know what these people in the Internal Affairs Office do." ā
"I see that you have been raised to lose your appetite, and the things in this palace are not the best, and you still dislike them." The Empress said with a pointful smile.
The empress's meaning was so clear that everyone present could hear it clearly.
The county lord of Luobei also heard it clearly, and she suddenly felt a little clear, feeling that she was really disturbing herself. It seems that there is another reason why the empress is so elevated Mu Qianlan, if this is the case, she doesn't have to bother like this. The empress has not favored Yang Lan for a day or two, and she also loves the house and Wu, and now she treats Mu Qianlan well, just looking at Yang Lan's face.
However, her slightly relieved mood sank again after her eyes touched the unhappiness on Qiao Chengyi's face.
This Mu Qianlan is the woman who has lived with Qiao Chengyi for many years, and she is also Qiao Chengyi's life-saving benefactor, Qiao Chengyi has been thinking about her for so many years, and now that she is here, Qiao Chengyi is even farther away from his original heart. Now Qiao Chengyi's expression is obviously jealous. This is not okay, she does not allow anyone to destroy her feelings and her happiness.
Thinking in his heart, the county lord of Luobei gave Mu Qianlan a vicious look, if the eyes can kill, I am afraid that she has already used her eyes to kill Mu Qianlan.
Mu Qianlan happened to see that the county lord of Luobei was hostile to her, and she had found out a long time ago, but the look just now made her feel a trace of murder. It seems that the lord of Luobei is interested in himself.
Her heart sank, thinking about whether it was dangerous in the palace, or whether she had developed a pill for the empress to stay earlier, and then went back to Changhe County as soon as possible.
Mu Qianlan was thinking about it, and suddenly heard the empress say: "Qianlan, I heard that you have a Zhuangzi in Changhe County, which has a lot of good things, which is very rare. It's time to farm just after the New Year, and I think I'll reward you with a Zhuangzi in the capital, and you can also plant some rare things and send them to the palace, so that I can also open my eyes? ā
Mu Qianlan was stunned for a moment, a little dazed, what is this? Give yourself a Zhuangzi for no reason? Is it pie in the sky? Zhuangzi in the capital, she didn't dare to think about it, who didn't know that the land price in the capital was the highest? It's rewarded by His Majesty again, can it be Xiao Zhuangzi?
"Thank you for your majesty's love, but some things are limited by the climate, and what can be grown in Changhe County may not be suitable for the capital. If Your Majesty is really interested, the people will have a new one in the future, and let people send them to Beijing. Mu Qianlan also politely rejected the empress's proposal.
Although the life in the capital is good, there are too many high-ranking officials here, and it is estimated that a brick can be smashed into three or five seven-grade officials, and she doesn't dare to get an axe here, so as not to even offend people.
The empress didn't expect Mu Qianlan to refuse such a good thing, you know, the empress rewarded it, it was the imperial village, and others didn't dare to move it. The identity of the person who owns the Huangzhuang is naturally rising, even if he wants to offend high-ranking officials, he must think about it first. For a civilian like Mu Qianlan, getting such a good thing is like getting a talisman in the capital. But why did she refuse?
"Qianlan, you better think about it again, don't be in a hurry to refuse, such an opportunity is very rare. You don't know, I've wanted Your Majesty's Zhuangzi for a long time, and Your Majesty is not willing to give me one. Yang Lan leaned over and said.
He didn't seem to think it was wrong to bite his ears in front of Her Majesty.
"That's it, Qianlan, don't refuse in such a hurry, you have this Zhuangzi, and staying in the capital in the future is not much better than returning to a small county like Changhe County?" Qiao Chengyi was also busy and opened his mouth to persuade.
Mu Qianlan looked at Qiao Chengyi, and then at Yang Lan, she was really entangled, didn't these two people want to think about why they refused? Especially Qiao Chengyi, she didn't want to be hated by the lord of Luobei like this, and then she didn't even know how she died that day.
"Qianlan, don't be in a hurry to refuse, people say that the homeland is difficult to leave, I can understand, you are thinking about it, I still need you to recuperate for a period of time, Zhuangzi I will keep it for you." Although the empress was rejected, she didn't even have a trace of annoyance on her face, but said with a light smile.
At this time, Lord Yang came, and when he came in, he happened to see the empress's smile, and he looked at Mu Qianlan unconsciously, but after taking a look, he suddenly felt that this Mu girl and the empress were seven points similar when they were young.
"Your Majesty!"
"That's it, hurry up, it's just a family banquet, where are there so many rules." The Empress smiled softly and smiled at Lord Yang, "Since everyone has arrived, let's start the banquet." ā
Mu Qianlan looked at the softness on the empress's face, and then looked at Lord Yang, and felt that these two were really a good match, but it was a pity that things went wrong, and they couldn't come together in this life, and I don't know if in the future, Your Majesty will regret the decision of the year.
