The Past of Qingtai (1)

The first year of Qingtai. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Today is the sixth day of October, the birthday of the Queen Mother.

This is the first birthday of the Queen Mother since the new emperor ascended the throne, although it is only a scattered life, but the current emperor has always been filial, and naturally ordered the Internal Affairs Office to do a good job.

The palace banquet is usually set up in Cining Palace, but this year, the Ministry of Internal Affairs invited the most famous opera troupe in the capital, Guangyin Society, to sing in the palace, and everyone listened to the opera in the incense hall in the imperial garden.

A three-foot-high stage was set up in the main hall of the Incense Pavilion, on which the Eight Immortals were performing.

The Queen Mother sat on the throne, with a pleasant smile on her carefully maintained face, and she didn't look like a person in her fifties at all, but like a lady in her early thirties. A large group of richly dressed palace concubines or high-ranking women sat around her, like stars and moons. The palace maid with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes and the waiter served tea and poured water lightly, and there was only babbling singing and women's whispers in the hall.

The queen sat at the bottom of the queen mother, and whispered to a woman in a rose-red dress next to her, who was no more than twenty-seven or eighteen years old. The two are intimate, and when it comes to interesting places, they can't help but hide their sleeves and smile.

"Rui Qing, what are you muttering to Fu Yatou?" The Queen Mother looked at them and asked with a smile.

The queen raised her head, revealing a beautiful face.

"After returning to his mother, Erchen is listening to Panfu tell interesting stories about the Lantern Festival!"

When the Queen Mother heard this, she smiled and said to the woman beside her: "Yuanzhou took you out to play again?" ”

The woman nodded, with a bright smile on her face: "The prince happened to be free two days ago, so he took us to Chaozhou." ”

"You guys?" The Queen Mother frowned slightly, "You still took Chunzhen with you?" ”

Ah, that's a leak!

The woman stuck out her tongue, revealing a bit of coquettishness.

Seeing her like this, the Queen Mother couldn't say anything to admonish her, but only said angrily: "What nonsense, Chunzhen is not yet three years old, how can I mess around with you!" ”

The woman hurriedly said: "At first, I didn't want to take the child there!" I just don't know how the little girl knew, and she was clamoring to go. You also know the prince's temperament, and he usually treasures her the most, so he agreed......"

The people in the room all looked surprised.

King Chen and the princess have been married for ten years before giving birth to such a baby daughter, which is really very favored.

"That kid is a ghost!" The Queen Mother really didn't say anything, but her face was full of like, and then as if she thought of something, she said to the palace maid beside her, "Tongqing, you go to the Imperial Garden to see how the little county lord is doing now, whether the people below are serving well, don't bump into it!" ”

"Yes."

The palace maid complied respectfully, and walked away with the two little palace maids.

In autumn, the Imperial Garden is still full of purple and red, with plants and trees, and the scenery is beautiful.

"Auntie, Aunt Yujie sent someone to say that the little county lord was teasing the peacock in Cailanyuan." The little palace maid said softly.

"Well, let's take a look." Tong Qing nodded, and walked towards Cailanyuan with a turn of his feet.

Cailanyuan is on the west side of the Imperial Garden, and it takes about a quarter of an hour to get past from the Incense Pavilion.

Tong Qing is the palace maid in charge of Cining Palace, and the low-grade palace people along the road saluted her, and most of the time she just nodded lightly, and occasionally met acquaintances to greet her.

As soon as he arrived outside Cailan Garden, a little eunuch of twelve or thirteen years old rushed out of it and almost hit Tong Qing.

"What do you look like in a panic!" Tong Qing scolded in a low voice.

When the little eunuch saw that it was Tong Qing, he immediately seemed to be grasping for a life-saving straw: "Aunt Tong Qing, it's not good!" Lord Chunzhen is gone! ”

"Gone? What do you mean? ”

"The county lord teased the peacock so well before, and suddenly said that he wanted to play hide and seek, so let's come to her. At first, nothing went wrong, but this last time, no matter how much the minions searched, they couldn't find where the little county lord was. Aunt Yujie led people to rummage through Cailanyuan, but there was not even a figure...... Aunt Tongqing, what do you say about this! Something is wrong with Chunzhen County, and the Queen Mother must not peel our skin! ”

After hearing the words, Tong Qing's face was already pale, and cold sweat broke out on his back.

“…… What about Yujie? ”

"Aunt Yujie and a few sisters are still looking for the little princess inside......"

"I'll take a look!"

Tong Qing ran in with her skirt, and the little palace maid and the little eunuch hurriedly followed.

"Yujie! Yujie! ”

The woman in the goose yellow skirt ran out of the house when she heard Tong Qing's shout.

"How? Have you found the little princess? ”

Yujie shook her head, tears falling down her eyes: "No, I've searched all the places, but there is no ......" she cried out with a whimper.

Tong Qing was so anxious now, she couldn't bother to comfort her, and called a little palace maid: "Quick, go to Kunning Palace to find Chenrui, tell her that the little county lord is gone, and let her bring someone to help find it quickly!" ”

"Yes!" The little palace maid galloped away.

Yujie grabbed Tongqing's hand with panic in her eyes: "Sister, if you can't find the county lord of Chunzhen today......

"No, it won't!" Tong Qing interrupted her categorically, "The county lord is still young, he must not be able to run far, there is nothing more than Yongfu Palace and Huaiyuan Pavilion nearby, the environment is simple, there should be no accidents." Besides, there are many people in the palace who know the little princess, if anyone has seen her, we will definitely be able to find it when we ask. Don't think nonsense here, mess with yourself, find people first! ”

"Hmm!" Yujie made up her mind and nodded heavily.

After a while, Chenrui arrived with seven or eight palace maids, and a group of people began to look for people in a radial shape from Cailan Garden.

Cailan Garden was newly built two years ago, the location is relatively partial, in addition to the current ownerless Yongfu Palace, there is an empty Huaiyuan Pavilion left.

After searching in Yongfu Palace to no avail, the group came to Huaiyuan Pavilion.

Huaiyuan Pavilion was originally a place for people to rest, but because the location was too remote, no one usually came. However, at this time, the window lattice was wide open, the door was ajar, and the white curtains swayed gently in the autumn wind.

Someone?

Tong Qing glanced at each other, and couldn't help but be surprised.

Ordinary palace people don't come here, could it be that which master is resting inside?

Tong Qing took a step forward and said in a loud voice, "Is there anyone inside?" ”

It was silent, and there was not a hint of response.

Tong Qing said again: "The slave is Tong Qing of Cining Palace, which master is resting here?" ”

Still no reply.

"Could it be the little princess?" Yujie wondered.

"Maybe......" Chenrui hesitated, "Why don't we go in and have a look?" ”

"The most important thing now is to find the little county lord." Tong Qing said, turned around and instructed the others, "You guys are waiting outside!" Then he walked in lightly with Chenrui and Yujie.

The house was unadorned, and it looked empty and deserted.

The three of them cautiously walked inside, faintly hearing some slight shaking sounds.

The further you go in, the clearer it becomes.

The long curtain in the distance was scattered, and two blurred figures appeared on the white plain veil, overlapping and entangled, and the man's wheezing and ** were faintly heard.

The three of them couldn't help but stop and looked at each other.
