Chapter 7: The Audience

I don't know how long I walked, Zijuan only felt that her eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and her eyes began to blur gradually. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Suddenly, she felt a pause under her, and a slightly hoarse female voice came from outside the sedan chair: "On the sedan chair, is it the Yirou County Lord of Prince Gong's Mansion?" ”

Zijuan lifted the corner of the sedan curtain, and saw a grandmother about forty years old and dressed as a palace maid standing in front of her. Zijuan looked up and down the lady's clothes in the shortest time, and then got off the sedan chair and bent her knees: "The sedan chair is the lord of my family, Yirou." Mama has worked hard, this is a little bit of the heart of the county lord of my family," he said, stuffing a piece of silver into the hand of Mama Li.

Mama Li thought that she was very satisfied with Zijuan being so "sensible", and her originally serious and cold expression was instantly replaced by a flattering smile, and she said respectfully to the cat in the sedan chair: "The slave and maid ask the county lord for peace." The county lord, you are finally here, the emperor and the queen mother are waiting in the imperial garden! The ladies of all the provinces have almost arrived. The queen mother said that the county lord entered the palace for the first time, afraid that you were not familiar with the fork in the road, so let the slave and maid wait for you here, and wait for you to come, and let the slave and maid lead you over. ”

Zijuan glanced at the cat who was still resting with her eyes closed at the moment, thought about it, turned her head and was about to speak, but the cat behind her had lazily spoke: "Since this is the case, let's bother Mama Lao to lead the way." As he spoke, he quickly sorted out the clothes he had just fallen asleep and got out of the sedan chair.

Mama Li obviously didn't expect the cat to come with a veil, as if she was asking for a moment, but she quickly covered it up without a trace: "Where did the county lord say, it really tormented the slave maid, this is the duty of the slave maid." Mama Li replied respectfully, and secretly thought in her heart: Isn't it rumored that this Yirou County Lord is beautiful and incomprehensible, so why is he still wearing a veil today? Are the rumors exaggerated? However, although the face is not real, the whole body exudes a spiritual purity that is rare in the world. Although she looks a little plain in dress compared with today's gorgeous and extravagant daughters, it does not affect her noble temperament at all. There didn't seem to be a trace of arrogance and willfulness in the conversation with her just now. Seeing it like this, in terms of appearance and temperament alone, the gentle and elegant five princes are really a pair of golden boys and girls.

Although the cat has long been canonized as the "Lord of Heshuo", this time it is the first time to enter the palace, and it is really "the first time that the big girl has been on the sedan chair". There is no other reason, because the Queen Mother does not want to see her. She quietly followed behind Mama Li, but in her heart she had already taken a good look at the exquisitely designed and magnificent palaces she had passed: this palace should have a hundred palaces, how much does it cost! Even if you only sell one place, the silver you get is probably enough to feed the people of the entire capital for several years. Gee...... It's too extravagant!

While he was thinking wildly, a sharp and piercing summons from a eunuch suddenly came from the front, which made the cat tremble: "The emperor has a decree to announce that the prince's mansion 'Heshuo Yirou County Lord' will meet you!" ”

Only then did the cat come back to his senses and find that it had arrived. Judging from the scenery she just passed by, this should be the largest flower garden in her father's mouth - "Imperial Garden".

I don't know how many turns I turned, and the cat saw the figure in the pavilion in the middle of the lake not far away, and the bright figure in the center of the pavilion was the most conspicuous, presumably it was my supreme emperor Jueluo.

The cat lowered her head slightly and followed Mama Li into the pavilion, stood still in front of the emperor, and then bowed down: "The courtier Yirou greets the emperor and the queen mother, and greets all the ladies and mothers." Seeing that the drive was late, I hope that the emperor, the queen mother and all the ladies will forgive their sins. "Everything is done in a generous manner, and there is a degree of advance and retreat. It's just that after a long time, the cat can only hear the breathing sound of individuals in the pavilion, strong and weak, and there is the "gossip" of the emperor and the queen mother and the young ladies of each family. So she muttered secretly in her heart: Didn't you just let you wait for a while, who told you to be so unpunctual, obviously said that you would enter the palace at the end of the day, and meet you at the end of the hour, and it was only seven minutes at the hour, and a bunch of people were here. It's really nothing to do.

After a long time, so long that she was about to think that the emperor was going to let her bend her knees over the whole birthday banquet, a light cough suddenly sounded around her, and then a clear and soft voice said: "Father, the birthday banquet is about to start, do you want everyone to move to Chuxiu Palace?" ”

At this time, the bright yellow brocade clothes in front of the cat moved slightly, and then a loud, strong and magnetic voice sounded: "You are the daughter adopted by Prince Gong ten years ago - the county lord of Yirou?" ”

Nonsense! Didn't it just be reported.

replied: "Back to the emperor, the courtiers are Yirou." ”

"Why did you come alone, your father, your mother, and your mother?"

"Back to the emperor, the mother suddenly fainted this morning, with a high fever that did not go away, and it was difficult to stay. My father was worried about my mother, so he asked his courtiers to come to the palace to ask you for their guilt, saying that he would delay for a while and come back. ”

"Oh, that's it. Then your mother is fine, right? Have you asked a doctor to see it? ”

"The courtiers thanked the emperor for her mother's concern. The doctor said that it was a heart disease, which should be caused by being too worried about my eldest brother, and he would be fine after recuperating for a while. ”

"That's fine...... Lord of Yirou County...... I heard rumors that the county lord of Prince Gong's mansion Yirou was extremely intelligent, and his appearance was comparable to that of a heavenly immortal. And you came to see me today with a white veil to hide your face, what is the reason? ”

"Back to the emperor's words, the rumors are not believable, Yirou is just one of the most ordinary among the thousands of women in the world, only because of the emperor's gift and the favor of her father, Yirou was given the identity of a "county lord", and everyone has a lot of love for Yirou. And where is there more like a fairy in the sky? ”

"But your father has praised you so much in front of me many times, is he deceiving me?"

"Back to the emperor, the courtiers felt that their father was not a bully. My father has always regarded Yirou as the pearl of his palm and loves him very much. In his eyes, the courtiers were excellent. Just like in the eyes of the emperor, all the princes and princesses are also dragons and phoenixes among people. It's just that, as I said earlier, rumors cannot be fully believed. Yi Rou knew that compared to the sisters present today, Yi Rou's assets were only mediocre. In addition, I accidentally inhaled the fragrance of the 'night incense' when I passed by the garden of my home last night, and I woke up this morning with terrible red spots on my face. The first diagnosis of the imperial doctor at home was an allergy that could not be resolved immediately. It's just that the face of the saint is imminent, and you can't disobey the holy command. In order not to disturb the emperor and the queen mother, Yirou had no choice but to meet her face under a veil and neglect to see her. Today's dress is not intended to be disrespectful to the emperor and the queen mother, so I implore the emperor and the queen mother to forgive their sins! ”

"That being the case, I can't blame you for that. It's just that although Buddhism has a cloud: skin and money are things outside the body. But this appearance is still very important to a woman. That's it, En'er, a few days ago, I gave you a box of skin gel that treats bruises and is very effective in damaging the skin from the South China Sea Kingdom, but is the gel still there? ”

The clear voice said: "Back to my father's words, the condensation is still in the palace of the son, and the son-in-law has not had a chance to use it yet." ”

"That being the case, after the banquet, you bring the condensation lotion with you, and when you send Yirou back, you will visit your Uncle Gong and Princess Gong for me by the way."

"The retainers obey."

"Yirou thanks the emperor for his grace, thank the queen mother for her grace." The cat listened quietly, and thanked him at this time.

"Well, get up!"

However, I don't know who said: "Alas, what a pity! The concubine originally thought that she could use the queen mother's banquet to see the beauty of the county lord Yirou, who was as famous as Miss Du, who was known as the 'first beauty in the capital', but she still couldn't do it. ”

The cat didn't know who this person who refused to let her go was, but she should thank her, otherwise she would really have to spend some time trying to figure out how to let the emperor and the queen mother see her face now.

"Xin Guiren, Yirou has already said that it is inconvenient for her to take off the veil today, do you still want to be strong?"

"Your Majesty, the concubines don't mean that. The concubine is just ......"

"That's it! I know what you mean. Aren't you just not convinced? If you don't accept it, wait for Yirou to heal and then let her enter the palace for you to see enough, and that's all for today. Yirou, you get up first. ”

"Yes, Yirou thanks the emperor for your understanding."

Mao'er knew that Xin Guiren was just a nobleman, but he dared to suddenly jump out in front of the emperor and the queen mother to speak, he must have been instructed by someone, and listening to what the emperor said to Xin Guiren just now, this person is Emperor Jueluo nine times out of ten. It's just that she can't figure out what Emperor Jueluo is thinking about. According to the current situation, we can only take one step at a time. I don't know how long this kind of anxious and cautious time will last......
