Chapter 249: A Little Familiar
"Respectfully Her Royal Highness the Queen, Jin An. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" 1 Everyone knelt down and said in unison, and at the same time couldn't help but quietly raise their eyes to look at the person entering the door.
But I saw a beautifully dressed and graceful woman outside the door, accompanied by several palace maids, and the early morning sun shone on her body, making her seem to be covered with a layer of golden light, a kind of dreamy beauty.
As she slowly approached everyone, everyone saw her appearance clearly.
The outside world describes the "beautiful national beauty and peerless elegance" is really very appropriate, and the real person of Queen Jingzhuang is more beautiful, more vivid and more durable than they described.
Although all the people present were women, everyone couldn't help but admire after seeing Queen Jingzhuang, but they didn't feel jealous.
The beauty of Queen Jingzhuang is convincing, comfortable, and like a spring breeze, so after they saw her, they only admired her and did not dare to make the slightest mistake.
Wen Yingsu raised her head slightly when Empress Jingzhuang passed by her, but only saw the side face of Empress Jingzhuang.
Oh my God, the silhouettes of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Empress Jingzhuang really look alike.
Perhaps because of this, Queen Jingzhuang gave Wen Yingsu a particularly cordial feeling, and Wen Yingsu couldn't help but look at her a few more times.
Empress Jingzhuang sat down and said to everyone: "Let's all be flat." Thank you for coming to celebrate the birthday of this palace, and you can eat and play whatever you want to eat, and you don't have to be too restrained. ”
Then they got up and sat down respectfully.
At this time, a group of palace maids rushed in, bringing all kinds of snacks, fruits and dried fruits.
Queen Jingzhuang smiled and beckoned everyone to eat, and everyone ate unceremoniously.
While eating, Yuan pulled Wen Yingsu's sleeve and said, "Come, I'll take you to say hello to the queen mother." ”
Wen Yingsu thought for a moment and said, "I still don't need to." ”
Yuan laughed at her and said, "You still nodded when you were at home, why did you become timid when you came?" ”
Wen Ying blushed and apologized.
She now prefers to be alone in a quiet corner.
Yuan knew that she had a quiet temperament, so he was not reluctant, and let her go with a smile.
Empress Jingzhuang took a sip of tea slowly, then looked at everyone, and she was stunned when her gaze swept over Wen Yingsu.
Not because I guessed that Wen Yingsu was the righteous daughter of the Ministry of Rites Shangshu Miyazawa Zhe, but because I felt that Wen Yingsu looked like a person.
When Bu Xun was a political envoy in the capital, Queen Jingzhuang met with him in public several times, and had a brief exchange, so she was quite impressed by Bu Xun, and the woman in front of her was six or seven points similar to Bu Xun in terms of facial contour and charm, so Queen Jing Zhuang couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
Buxun's daughter should also be the girl's age.
Empress Jingzhuang suddenly remembered the scene of an afternoon sixteen years ago.
At that time, she was out on errands, and when she passed through an alley, she suddenly heard someone kneeling down in front of her and saluting, and she hurriedly opened the curtain and looked out, and found that it was a young woman.
The young woman was holding a baby girl who was less than a year old in her hand and was extremely respectful.
Empress Jingzhuang asked, "Who are you?" ”
The young woman replied respectfully: "The slave family is an insider of the political envoy Bu Xun, and when he saw that the carriage in the palace passed by here, he saluted according to the number of rites. ”
When Queen Jingzhuang saw that she was respectful and well-spoken, she smiled and said, "Get up." He looked at the pink little ball in the young woman's arms, couldn't help the overflow of maternal love, and asked softly, "How old is the baby?" ”
The young woman replied, "Eleven months." ”
Perhaps sensing that someone was talking about her, the pink dumpling in the young woman's arms looked at Queen Jingzhuang, and grinned at Queen Jingzhuang in a friendly manner.
Queen Jingzhuang suddenly felt that her whole heart was soft into a puddle of water, and immediately got out of the carriage to hug her.
This little dough originally put its little hand in its mouth to gnaw, but at this moment, after seeing Queen Jingzhuang hugging her, she took out her little hand and covered Queen Jingzhuang's face with a smile.
Queen Jingzhuang liked it very much, so she asked the young woman again: "What is her name?" ”
"The nickname is Guoguo, and the official name is Bu Jintang." The young woman replied with a smile, seeing that Queen Jingzhuang liked her daughter so much, the young woman was also very happy in her heart.
At that time, the young woman didn't know that the person in front of her was the queen, but she vaguely felt that she must be a person with a very high status in the harem.
Queen Jingzhuang didn't reveal her identity to her at that time, but just hugged the little dough baby for a while and returned it to the young woman, and then left.
After so many years, Queen Jingzhuang has never thought of this, and now she can't help but think of it when she sees the girl in front of her.
When the court arrived, they only saw the body of a man in black lying on the ground, as well as the messed up carriage and salute, but the body of Buxun's family was not seen
But from a distant witness, the court learned that Buxun's couple and son had been killed on the spot.
Later, the witness left in a hurry and ran to the government to report the crime.
When the government arrived, the bodies of Buxun's wife, Buxun's son, and his subordinates were gone.
It stands to reason that the girl who rolled down the river should not have a chance of surviving.
Empress Jingzhuang rubbed her forehead and told herself—perhaps she was dazzled, and it was unlikely that the girl would still be alive.
But the girl in front of her was in the East Palace in the spring of the following year when she was killed, and then she did a few things that made people scratch their heads, which had to make Empress Jingzhuang think in that direction.
If this girl is the daughter of Bu Xun, then it is very likely that she entered the East Palace with some kind of purpose, and if this is the case, then this girl's step by step performance from attracting the attention of the prince to becoming the righteous daughter of Miyazawa Tetsu seems to be a deliberate plan.
Then it's not an easy matter.
Empress Jingzhuang frowned.
Wen Yingsu looked at Queen Jingzhuang at the right time, and saw that the other party looked at her with a strange look, so she hurriedly turned her eyes away.
But for some reason, Wen Yingsu suddenly became nervous.
Just now, Queen Jingzhuang's eyes on her are very complicated, how to say it, it is not disgust, nor friendship, but like seeing a monster that she doesn't want to see.
Could it be that Queen Jingzhuang saw something?
In Wen Yingsu's impression, she had never met with Queen Jingzhuang, but she did not rule out that her father had the opportunity to meet Queen Jingzhuang.
Since she was a child, Wen Yingsu knew that she looked a little like her father, and because of this, she didn't dare to take the initiative to approach Queen Jingzhuang after she came.
If the queen really recognized her identity, she couldn't predict what would happen next for a while, but she always felt that this would not be a good thing, and the more Wen Yingsu thought about it, the more uneasy she became, so she wanted to find a reason to leave the palace.
