Chapter 36: The Storm (4)
The chamberlain didn't dare to delve into it, and Wang hated people who figured out his mind the most in his life. Coming to the Thousand Birch Tower, this is the only place in the entire palace named after the king's concubine, which shows the favor of the people who live in the inner room.
In the country of falling snow, the lord of the kingdom is called the king, his wife is called the queen, and the lady and concubines are under him. However, the position of the queen of the falling snow country is still vacant, and the lady in the harem is already noble.
"Madam, Wang Xuan, you go to the Maple Leaf Pavilion." The chamberlain whispered, not daring to disturb the appearance of the master here.
"Got it, I'll change my clothes and go, you can go back first." Xue Qianhua was lying on the soft couch covered with ferret fur at the moment, surrounded by fiery charcoal fires, which made beeping sounds from time to time, bringing some life to this quiet room.
The chamberlain went back to resume his life, and Xue Qianhua got up leisurely, stepped barefoot on the precious Persian carpet, lined the snow feet more white, and tied a few small bells at the ankles, making a pleasant ringing between actions. Changed to a light crimson Liuyun wide sleeves, and put on a cloak made of red fox fur outside, the coat color was pure and did not contain a trace of miscellaneous hair, and the eyebrows and eyes carved like snow were a little more vivid at this time.
When they arrived at the Maple Leaf Pavilion, Chang'an and the lord of the country did not speak, the atmosphere was quiet, and Xue Qianhua sat aside after saluting, and her smiling eyes fell on Chang'an gently, changing her lifeless appearance before.
"I wonder why Li'er called me over?" Sitting here also has a cup of tea, but Chang'an just didn't speak, Xue Qianhua had to ask.
"I just wanted to ask you a few questions, my real name is Xue Qianli? Why are you the same word? And are you really my mother? Why do I look at you and don't feel familiar at all? "The lord of the country has already asked the palace people and the inner servants to go down, and there are only three of them in the Maple Leaf Pavilion at this time, so Chang'an speaks more directly.
I thought that Xue Qianhua would be displeased, but I didn't expect her to just smile lightly and say softly: "Yes, maybe you don't know, let's fall into the snow, don't Xing Dali's set, the name is taken at random, there is no word or anything." It's okay if you're not familiar with me, our mother and son have been separated for too long, and it's normal for you to be a little rusty, but don't worry, the mother concubine will definitely make up for you. As he spoke, he stood up and wanted to take Chang'an into his arms. Chang An frowned, and turned sideways to avoid this hug, for no other reason, he didn't like others to be close to him, and Xue Qianhua still had a strong aroma of fat powder.
Xue Qianhua had a hint of embarrassment, but soon showed a smile again, and said to Chang'an: "Li'er, I have discussed with your father, and tomorrow I will restore your identity in front of the courtiers, and then you will follow your brothers to study in the academy." ”
Yes, there are three sons under the knees of the current lord of the Falling Snow Country, the eldest prince Xue Qianye, the second prince Xue Qianling, and the third prince Xue Qianling. Xue Qianli is the youngest prince of the Falling Snow Country, and a few years ago due to the rebellion of the courtiers, he was exiled to Dali, and he met Sheng Xianchen. However, the next heir to the throne of the Falling Snow Country has not yet been determined, and the queen is also vacant. However, fortunately, there are brothers, friends and brothers among the royal family of Luoxue, and there is no phenomenon of secretly forming factions, and the court of Luoxue is much more stable than Dali.
On the second day, the lord of the country of falling snow really announced Chang'an's identity in the court, and Chang'an began his study career in Luoxue.
……
167 years of the Great Li Jin calendar.
The northern kingdom suddenly attacked the border of Dali, the border soldiers were lazy, and they were defeated and retreated, the emperor was furious, and the court was panicked for a while.
"How do you think this matter should be resolved?" The emperor was dressed in bright yellow and sat on the dragon chair.
The usually active court was silent today, the emperor twisted his eyebrows, raised his voice and said: "Why don't you say anything, ah~ Isn't everyone able to speak well on weekdays?" Why are you dumb today? ”
The emperor swept all the twists and turns on the dragon case to the ground, so frightened that the ministers did not dare to speak without permission.
"Prime Minister Lan, you are the head of a hundred officials, how should you solve the matter of the attack on the northern country? I really don't know what I've been eating all these years, I can't even stop tens of thousands of soldiers in the northern country, what's the use of keeping him! The Emperor's voice was tinged with unusual anger.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that he should send someone to the border at this time to block the attack of the northern country." Lan Cheng trembled.
"Oh~ who do you think is the most suitable person?" The emperor's tail note rose, but it made Prime Minister Lan even more timid, and he said in a trembling voice: "Minister...... I didn't think of it for a while. ”
"What do the other Aiqing think?" The emperor's gaze no longer looked at Prime Minister Lan, and raised his head to look at the others above the court.
"I think what Prime Minister Lan said is reasonable." An official is listed.
"The minister seconded the proposal." The rest of the group chimed in.
"Father, the son is willing to go, and he will drive the soldiers of the northern country out of my Dali territory!" Dust out of the ranks.
"Good! is worthy of being my daughter, what does Chen'er want, just put it forward. The Emperor looked at Xianchen with a pair of eagle eyes.
"Erchen went to the border this time and wanted to ask Prime Minister Lan for someone." Xianchen replied to the emperor's words, but his eyes looked in the direction of Prime Minister Lan.
"I don't know who Her Royal Highness wants from Her Royal Highness?" Lan Cheng asked.
"Lan Weishu." Xian Chen said three words, but it made everyone's faces change, everyone knows that the one who wins the world is the one who wins the world, and the ambition of Her Royal Highness the princess is really not small.
"Father, Erchen and Lan Weishu have been friends for a long time, Lan Weishu's talent makes Erchen fall in love, this time, if Lan Weishu is by his side, Erchen promises to drive the North ** team out of Dali within three months!" Xianchen is full of words.
The emperor who sat on top of the Ming Hall naturally did not miss the expressions of the people below, and when he heard Xian Chen's words, his brows were also furrowed, and he seemed to be very dissatisfied with Xian Chen's request.
Xianchen ignored the expressions of the people around him, and said again: "Father, Lan Weishu's strategy and talent are far above those of his sons, and I also ask my father to allow him to follow me on the expedition!" Xian Chen's words were reasonable, and the ministers couldn't find a suitable reason to refute for a while, after all, the border of Dali still needs to be guarded by Xian Chen.
The emperor's face at this time was reflected in the dark, making people unable to distinguish his expression, and after a while, "Okay! I agreed, my son will win this time, and kill the majesty of the northern country! ”
A smile jumped on Xianchen's face, and he responded respectfully: "Yes, the son will definitely live up to the emperor's grace." ”
At the end of the early dynasty, the emperor also drafted a decree for Gonggong De to send it to the Prime Minister's Mansion, ordering Lan Weishu and Xianchen to set off immediately, without mistakes.
On the day that Xianchen left Beijing, Concubine Yue, who had lived in the deep palace for a long time, also came to practice. Xian Chen looked at her obviously plumper figure than before, and didn't know what to say for a while.
It was Gao Qianyue who opened her mouth, "The concubine wishes His Highness a great victory this time!" The tone was no longer coquettish as before, but there was a little more iron-blooded killing aura, and Xianchen was shocked when he heard it.
"Xianchen thanked Concubine Yue this time, and asked Concubine Yue to take good care of my father during this time." Xian Chen suddenly felt that Gao Qianyue must have entered the palace for other reasons, and it was not because she liked the emperor as she said back then. But despite the fluctuation in his heart, there was still no change in his expression on Xianchen's face.
Then he didn't look at Gao Qianyue anymore, Xian Chen's legs clamped the horse's belly, and walked away. The figure of Lan Weishu who followed behind him was wearing a moon-white robe today, and he looked more elegant and handsome. Gao Qianyue retracted her gaze and walked back to Yongyue Palace slowly with the support of the palace maid.
The sunset gradually sank, dyeing the clouds on the horizon with a blood-red color, Gao Qianyue suddenly smiled strangely, and then returned to her normal color. The eldest prince Sheng Xianxu was not sent to the queen's Weiyang Palace to be raised by the queen, but often served by the side of the Snow Emperor herself, but the little prince Sheng Xianmo was taught by the queen herself.
When Gao Qianyue returned to the imperial city, she did not go to Yongyue Palace, but went to the queen's Weiyang Palace. The painting of Weiyang Palace was a little surprised when she saw Gao Qianyue, everyone knew that the imperial concubine of this month had been sick and lived in Yongyue Palace since she gave birth to the little prince, and she had not been out of the palace for four years. The first time I stepped out of the palace gate in four years was to practice for Her Royal Highness the princess, and at this time I came to Weiyang Palace......
"The slave has seen the Moon Emperor." Bow to the head of the painting.
"Pictorial girl, I don't know if the queen is available at this time? Can you spread the word? Gao Qianyue spoke, with a dignified look.
"Please wait here for a while, and the slave will go to report to the mother." After a while, Huayi brought Gao Qianyue in.
"The concubine asks the queen mother to say goodbye, the queen mother is a thousand years old." Gao Qianyue knelt down and made a big salute.
The queen hurriedly left the bed and helped Gao Qianyue up, "Sister, why bother with etiquette." Come, get up quickly, I don't know why my sister came to my Weiyang Palace today? The queen took Gao Qianyue's hand and walked to the soft couch next to her and sat down.
"Since my sister said so, my sister won't go around in circles, my sister came here today to see Mo'er." Gao Qianyue's soft and weak voice came.
The queen chuckled, "Painting, go and bring the little prince up to show the Moon Princess." "The painting took the order and left.
Seeing that the picture was far away, Gao Qianyue put away the smile on her face and said a few words beside the queen. By the time the painting brought the little prince up, Gao Qianyue and the queen were discussing which kind of pearl powder was easier to use and had the best effect.
"Mo'er, come and see your mother." The queen beckoned, Sheng Xian Mo ran over with her little short legs, hugged the queen's calves, tilted her head, and looked at the queen with wet eyes.
The queen gently patted Sheng Xianmo's head, and then asked him to go to Gao Qianyue's side. Gao Qianyue cried as soon as she saw Sheng Qianyue, Sheng Qianmo took out the small brocade handkerchief she was carrying, and wiped away Gao Qianyue's tears one by one with her chubby little hands.
"Mother, don't cry, Mo'er is obedient, she listens to her mother very much, and she is not naughty." Sheng Xianmo's soft voice came.
Gao Qianyue was stunned in place, forgot to cry for a while, and looked at the queen's face, as if she was a little incredulous: "Sister...... This ......"
