Chapter 3: Return to the Palace
"Why don't you go back to the palace first?" got into the carriage and rushed all the way to Shangguan Mansion, Shangguan Rong saw that Xuanyuan Xue was a little tired on his face, and knew that it must be very hard to travel all the way, and he felt a little sorry for her.

"It's boring to go back, and I have to pretend to be a lady, otherwise the Queen Mother will reprimand me, and I won't be able to bear it. Anyway, I didn't tell my brother when he would arrive, so I might as well play more while he didn't find out. Xuanyuan Xue stretched her waist, took off her hat and leaned lazily on the maid next to her, closing her eyes and recuperating.
Shangguan Rong looked at the golden silk mask on Xuanyuan Xue's face, which completely blocked the upper half of the face on the right side, and he didn't feel a pain in his heart. The Shangguan family and the Xuanyuan family were world friends, and the two families had a very good personal relationship long before Xuanyuan Ming's great-grandfather established the Ming Shangguo.
The Xuanyuan family is very good at marching and arranging, and his own family has always been good at literary strategy, and the two complement each other to fight the world, and establish the Ming Shangguo to become the country of the East.
Xuanyuan Yan not only named his grandfather as the right minister to assist the government, but also married his sister to the Shangguan family. In his own generation, his three brothers were raised in the palace by the emperor and received the highest standard of education with the princes.
Today's emperor, Xuanyuan Ming is the same age as himself, he is a cold-faced guy, but somehow he is very close to himself, when he was young, he often mixed together, but he really didn't do anything good. He remembered that the first time he saw Xuanyuan Xue was in the second year of his school in the palace, when Xuanyuan Xue was only six years old, and he was only an eight-year-old child.
Xuanyuan Xue's mother concubine is the most beautiful among the former imperial concubines, even surpassing Xuanyuan Ming's mother concubine Yunhuang Guifei, and she has a soft temperament, and the light air around her body seems to make people feel that the dust in this world will not be contaminated with her. And Xuanyuan Xue also inherited her mother's softness and elegance, and at the age of six years younger, that clear and beautiful aura was fully revealed.
At that time, Shangguan Rong was stunned, he knew, the Xuanyuan family had a good foundation, which of the emperor and several princes was not handsome? But he didn't think about what would happen if such a foundation fell on a woman. What's more, she added the appearance of Concubine Hui. He thought that if he waited for this girl to grow up, she would be such a charming and charming character.
As soon as she saw it, Xuanyuan Xue lingered in her heart. It's a pity that Xuanyuan Xue has been delicate since she was a child, and she has always been sick, and it didn't take long for the emperor to send her to Qingyun Mountain, which is a holy place for cultivating immortals, and it is also a good place to cure diseases and save people. Before the emperor ascended the throne, he had met the head of Qingyun Dao, who was a master of cultivating immortals, so he asked him to accept Xuanyuan Xue.
First, it is to cure Xuanyuan Xue's weakness, and secondly, Xuanyuan Xue was born smart and clever, and she is quite capable of controlling immortal arts.
Since Xuanyuan Xue went up the mountain, Shangguan Rong has seen her less and less, if it wasn't for the emperor's birthday, or the reunion festival, it was really rare to see her. But every year Xuanyuan Xue was a few points beautiful, until she was eleven years old, the emperor's concubine married the neighboring Yunxiao Kingdom.
That year, Xuanyuan Xue should be recalled to the palace, which was a great joy for the royal family. But somehow, when the first emperor went out of the palace to see him off, Concubine Hui went crazy and locked herself and Xuanyuan Xue in the palace, not to say that the Gu worm could cure her daughter's illness, and insisted on planting Gu for Xuanyuan Xue, as a result, the third princess of Ming Shangguo disfigured her appearance and fainted, and Concubine Hui also lost her appearance and hanged herself.
When the emperor heard about it and rushed back to the palace, he saw the bloodless third princess, and the deep scar on the corner of his eyebrows pierced the heart of the emperor's beloved daughter. The first emperor was furious and ordered Concubine Hui to be thrown into a mass grave, and ordered all the mirrors in Xuanyuan Xue's room to be removed, and found famous doctors from all over the world to diagnose and treat Xuanyuan Xue, but he could not eliminate the long scar at the corner of her eyebrows.
She used to be the most beautiful princess in the imperial city, but now she has become the ugliest one, looking at the gorgeous faces of her brothers and sisters, Shangguan Rong can always see the hurt in Xuanyuan Xue's heart, but he really admires her, and she always has a calm smile on her face, which corresponds to the strength of her heart.
Fortunately, Xuanyuan Ming and Xuanyuan Hao protected her as always, and did not dislike her because she was disfigured, an elder brother and a younger brother, the two of them got together during the day and didn't do anything else, just dragged Shangguan Rong to figure out how to make Xuanyuan Xue happy. Xuanyuan Xue is an empathetic girl, so naturally she will not waste the hard work of the three of them, and she has always been very cooperative and happy.
Autumn coincided with Xuanyuan Xue's birthday, and every year Shangguan Rong remembered that the palace was a big deal, because this was the emperor's favorite daughter, but this time, Xuanyuan Xue asked Jian Ban to just invite a few good feelings to get together, and the emperor had no choice but to agree.
On that day, Shangguan Rong was also within the scope of the invitation, and he was overjoyed. He remembered that when he received the invitation, he rolled happily in the house for a long time, and his younger brother looked disdainful, but he didn't care because he knew that in Xuanyuan Xue's heart, his relationship with her was good. It was at that time that he discovered that no matter what Xuanyuan Xue looked like, as long as he could be by her side, as long as she could remember herself, he could be so happy.
The dinner was as warm and comfortable as ever, and the emperor asked Xuanyuan Xue what she wanted, in fact, since Xuanyuan Xue was injured, the emperor gave her all kinds of rewards, all kinds of special cases, and all kinds of benefits, Shangguan Rong knew that the emperor wanted to do everything to make up for and love this daughter.
He remembered that Xuanyuan Xue smiled faintly and saluted, a spiritual position with a good-looking mask. She said indifferently, not to mention that indifference Shangguan Rong himself was even shocked by the emperor, an eleven-year-old girl, this detachment should not have been her. The first emperor didn't allow it, saying that the woman hurt her like this, and she was not worthy of worshipping the mourning hall, Xuanyuan Xue was neither humble nor arrogant, she only said that it was all kindness to give birth to me and raise me, she just wanted to bring it back to Qingyun, because it was her mother, and she had her blood flowing in her body.
"What do you think?" Xuanyuan Xue still closed her eyes, Shangguan Rong withdrew from her thoughts, and giggled and didn't answer. Xuanyuan Xue moved her body indifferently, and said with a little disgust: "The Shangguan family is the prime minister of the three dynasties, can you get some good carriages?" I sat for a while, and my back hurt. ”
"You don't have to come?" Shangguan Rong leaned against the window, letting the breeze blow through his hair, Xuanyuan Xue opened her eyes and casually threw the teacup on the small table, "Hurry up and change it." ”
Shangguan Rong took it backhanded, lowered his head and smiled helplessly: "When I was a child, I was well-behaved and obedient, but when I grew up, I became domineering. Okay, I'll change it when I go back and make sure that the princess is satisfied next time she sits down. ”
Xuanyuan Xue pouted and ignored him and sat up straight. Xuanyuan Xue knew that Shangguan Rong accommodated her in everything, so she naturally didn't have too many scruples. She glanced out of the car, which slowly stopped at the door of a magnificent mansion, "Let's go." Shangguan Rong got up first and turned around and knocked Xuanyuan Xue's forehead, "It hurts." Xuanyuan Xue feigned grievances and angrily, which made Shangguan Rong laugh, which was really good.
Shangguan Rong looked at Xuanyuan Xue, he really wanted to be like this for the rest of his life, but he knew that Xuanyuan Xue's heart had never been open, at least for him. Therefore, he did it cautiously and did not dare to rush to attack the city.
"Waiting for the princess." Xuanyuan Xue just got out of the car and was almost angry.
Looking at a pair of guards in the forbidden palace, the one who took the lead was Bai Jing, the dignified and bright and beautiful left minister, Xuanyuan Xue really felt that her brother was against her, and she was really furious in her heart thousands of times to vent, and she couldn't explain her current state of mind.
"Look, you can't hide everything from Emperor Ming, right?" Shangguan Rong was quite proud.
"Brother Rong!" Bai Jing stepped forward and greeted Shangguan Rong warmly.
"Brother White!"
"Hehe......" Xuanyuan Xue looked at it coldly, turned her head and called softly, "Night!" ”
A gust of breeze blew across his face, Bai Jing only felt a chill behind him, he turned around with a low smile, and patted Ye's shoulder with one hand, "How sooner or later can you not be so far away?" Can you beat me, can you beat Emperor Ming? ”
Yeben was an orphan, and when the emperor was still there, he was raised by the first-class guards at that time since he was a child. Night's personality is withdrawn, but he is a serious and diligent child, and his kung fu is also the best among children of the same age. Once Xuanyuan Ming was playing in the Imperial Garden, and when he saw the night of practicing on the side, they were all five or six-year-old children, so naturally they fought without a single eye, but they didn't know each other, and the night became Xuanyuan Ming's little follower.
Later, he went to Qingyun Mountain with Xuanyuan Xue to worship under the Changmen of Qingyun Dao, and now his kung fu is perfect, and he always silently protects Xuanyuan Xue's side. It's just, is it the Ming Emperor or the Snow Princess? Bai Jing looked at the night playfully, snorted coldly, and said, "Is Brother Bai here to invite people or to oppress people?" ”
Xuanyuan Xue raised her eyebrows and looked at Bai Jing warningly, Ye was loyal to Emperor Ming and devoted to her, and if she invited someone, she would have to listen to her, and if she was oppressive, Ye would naturally not let him take him away easily.
Bai Jing is also helpless, not to mention these three princesses, even Emperor Ming can't handle it. That's it. As soon as he stretched out his hand, he asked the princess to take care of herself, "One hour, princess, don't be wrong." ”
Rest assured, she will not be mistaken. Because tonight is the grand dinner of her eldest sister returning to the court, how can she delay it? Xuanyuan Qing, I haven't seen you for seven years, how are you doing in Yunxiao Kingdom?
