Chapter 134: Acting
There was a nasty old man in front of him, but the emperor saw that the old fox was more and more pleasing to the eye, and called everyone enthusiastically, and pulled the second old lady and the eighth old man into the hall, as if he was the master.
The Daoist of Zhenming also followed, and Guo Tang, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, stood outside the door, standing like a tall pine.
Xiusun helped the old lady to run all the way from the hanging flower gate, the hairpin ring was slightly messy, and a group of women arrived in front of the courtyard gate, and happened to see this scene.
A brown short fight can't hide Guo Tang's style, he is a ruthless character who kills people.
The moment Xiusun saw him, his eyes froze, and he quickly lowered his eyes, he was the emperor's brother and one of the few henchmen, when Xiusun was not dead, he was still an ordinary thousand households of Jinyiwei, and on the road to his promotion, the emperor could not help much, and Jinyiwei was still in the hands of the Queen Mother at that time.
And now, with the trend of the Queen Mother, there is no longer a force that can stop him, I am afraid that he has already kicked the original commander away and sat in the position of the commander himself.
Xiusun's expectation was good, but before she finished her thoughts, the old lady had already led everyone to kneel on the cobblestone road outside the courtyard.
Xiusun's tender little knees were painful, and she secretly praised the old lady for her experience, so she had already asked the whole family to bring knee pads, and those who did not have knee pads wore cotton pants.
"The old body is guilty, but he doesn't know the power of heaven, and the crime deserves death." The old lady had already started the gong, and her old voice was neither high nor low, but it was full of trembling and remorse, just right.
Xiusun bowed his head and knelt honestly, counting three times silently in his heart, and the partition fan in the courtyard creaked, "Mother," it was the voice of the eighth master, and he staggered through the courtyard and rushed to his mother.
The Son of Heaven was here, of course, he couldn't pick up his mother without permission, so he had to kneel in front of his mother, looking anxious.
The old lady didn't raise her head, because she didn't bother to pay attention to him, the mother and son had a crazy acting skills, and the other revealed their true feelings, this scene was very good, but the old lady kept sighing in her heart, this unlucky son, this stupid son, she couldn't even teach.
The emperor's voice sounded at the right time, and he said tolerantly, "Those who don't know are not guilty, although the old lady doesn't know my true identity, she treats me well, what is the crime, please hurry up, don't worry." ”
He actually made a gesture to help the old lady in person, but the eighth master didn't dare to bother the emperor when he saw it, so he hurriedly supported his mother by himself, and when the old lady stood firm, the Ruan family and Xiusun sisters got up and stood silently on the side.
The emperor said a few warm words to the old lady, and then sent a group of female dependents to rest.
The old lady took her daughter-in-law and granddaughters to give the emperor a big gift, and then withdrew from the courtyard and turned around to the courtyard of the second old lady.
The ladies of the family all gathered in the courtyard of the second old lady and did not dare to walk around, which was ordered by the second old lady. The second old lady also ordered, since the dragon is here, there can't be only one guard around, there must be a secret guard nearby, according to the emperor's suspicious nature, maybe he will also inquire about the situation in the house, so the second old lady is asked to restrain the female relatives to be cautious in words and deeds.
The second old lady couldn't say it clearly, so she had to call all the female dependents to her yard, including the long house.
When Xiusun and the others entered, they also saw the big old lady, and now the big old lady is very different from when they first met, and she is a lot older, and she no longer has the original arrogant style, only sitting on the upper seat, like a clay sculpture and wood carving.
Looking at the eldest lady standing behind the old lady, the maintenance is not bad, the skin is not very shiny, but the spirit is good, but the plain silver hairpin looks very lonely.
Xiusun couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic to them, ah no, wait, it seems that something has been forgotten by her.
She and her sisters saluted the elders one by one, and there was nothing to do, so she simply found a corner and stood and thought slowly.
She thought about it, thought about it again, and suddenly remembered that not long ago, didn't the mother-in-law who died inexplicably in her house have a complicated relationship with the long house?
Xiusun secretly marveled that she could forget about this incident and leave the cramped palace, was her heart so big?
She caressed her little heart and comforted herself, it should be that the recent days have been too smooth, her mother finally gave birth to a son, and the eighth master came back, because she loved her son very much, she coaxed the children in Ruan's house every day, and she didn't go to the Bifen Pavilion.
Life is so smooth, she actually forgot to be prepared for danger in peace, she was really born in sorrow, died in peace, awake, vigilant, she couldn't wait to slap her face.
Just as she was stunned and immersed in the world of introspection, she suddenly noticed a gaze stop on her face, as if it had been a long time, she was shocked, but she did not immediately raise her eyes to look, and finally retained the vigilance and self-control that she had learned in the palace.
At this time, in the courtyard of the second old lady, there was a room of children and dependents, and there would be no irrelevant people here, she was a little relieved, suppressed her strong curiosity and slowly lowered her eyes, standing in place, she could stand motionless for an hour in her previous life, and she was not in a hurry.
The position she chose was next to the floor cover, and her eyes moved away, and in Xiusun's field of vision, two people's feet appeared in front of her and behind her, the first person in front of her was familiar to her, it was Chu Xiuyi, and the one in the back was about the same height as him, but she didn't know who it was.
The two of them entered the banquet room to greet a few old ladies, Xiusun stood in place and did not move, but a pair of small ears were flexibly erected, he heard the man speak, and then remembered that his second cousin of the Ruan family was still living in the Chu family at this time.
Then Fang Cai's gaze should have been cast by him, Xiusun suddenly remembered, there was a time when Chu Xiuyi told her that the second cousin asked her around, what did he want to do?
When encountering unknown things, Xiusun instinctively thinks about the worst, and the last time Chu Xiuyi reminded her, she planted the seeds of doubt in her heart, and planned to stay away from this second cousin.
Unexpectedly, the old lady called her, "Xiusun, your cousin is here." "It means to let her go and make a salute.
Xiusun had no choice but to move her slightly numb short legs and enter the banquet room. What she didn't expect was that Ruan seemed to like this second cousin very much, and pulled him to ask a lot of homework things, but then again, Ruan and her aunt Zhang didn't deal with each other, of course, she had to be good to her concubine, so disgusting Zhang.
Alas, Xiusun didn't bother to persuade her, after all, every time the Zhang family saw her family, they looked disgusted, and their gestures revealed the arrogance of several levels of superiority, which made their whole family unhappy.
She stepped forward to greet the ceremony, and the second cousin also returned the salute, and then the underage boys of the Chu family also entered the courtyard of the second old lady, and they all came to eat.
A large family of old and young women and children crowded into the courtyard of the second old lady for dinner, and officials at all levels in Nanzhili flocked to it.
They continued to stay in the courtyard of the second old lady and did not go out again. (To be continued.) )
