Yu Ruoxu still remembers that when she entered Beijing with her father, the Empress Dowager Liang personally led the little emperor, took the phoenix, and took hundreds of officials out of the city gate to personally welcome her father into the palace.

I haven't seen a second time for such a grand scene for a long time.

"Daddy", Yu Ruoxu said in a low voice, "This Empress Dowager Liang has given you enough face." ”

Yu Zhongjun smiled and shook his head slightly, still indifferent on the surface, and didn't say a word. After a while, he raised his hand and patted the back of her hand, "Ruoxu, let's go." ”

Yu Ruoxu nodded, "Yes." Stretched out his hand to help Yu Zhongjun, and the curtain at the door was lifted.

Jingzhao Mansion Yin smiled with a smile on his face, "Lord Yu, Miss Yu, the holy car has already left the city gate, why don't we wait at the gate first, so as not to delay the trip of the emperor and Niangniang, what do you think?" ”

Yu Zhongjun smiled, "I will listen to the arrangement of the adults." ”

Jingzhao Mansion Yin had a flattering smile on his face, "Where is it, in the future, I will trouble Lord Yu in the Queen Mother and ......"

Yu Ruoxu hurriedly intercepted the conversation, "My lord, the time has come." ”

Jingzhao Mansion Yin immediately came back to his senses, laughed a few more words, and sent Yu Zhongjun and Yu Ruoxu out.

This dynasty stipulates that the face of the heavenly family cannot be seen by the common people at will. So obviously the streets have been cleared, the red carpet for miles, there is still the faint sound of solemn drums, the streets are covered with Praetorian Guards, and the people passing by are all quietly kneeling on the ground, and the atmosphere does not dare to gasp. It is obviously the most prosperous downtown under the feet of the Son of Heaven, but now it is a little deserted.

A burst of ambergris wafted by, and two luxurious soft sedan chairs stopped in front of Yu Zhongjun and his party. A grandmother in a light blue palace dress lifted the sedan curtain, and a young woman in a gorgeous costume led a little boy about thirteen years old to Yu Zhongjun surrounded by hundreds of officials.

"Minister Yu Zhongjun, meet the emperor, meet the queen mother."

"The people's daughter Yu Ruoxu, meet the emperor, meet the queen mother."

"Let's be flat." The little emperor's slightly childish voice sounded, and after everyone thanked him, Yu Ruoxu raised his head slightly, only to see a bright yellow robe embroidered with a cirrus dragon pattern.

"Mr. Yu is willing to come all the way from Langzhong this time, which is an honor for the imperial court." The Queen Mother on one side smiled and spoke.

Yu Zhongjun solemnly smiled, "The Queen Mother is too elevated to the ministers." Being able to assist the emperor is a blessing for the ministers. ”

I don't know if it's been standing in the sun for a long time, Yu Ruoxu was in a trance, only hearing the sound of the Queen Mother's footsteps sliding slightly, the lingering ambergris seemed to be more intense, and there was a big red phoenix pattern in front of him, "This is the second lady of Lord Yu's family, right?" Raise your head and let the mourners see. ”

Yu Ruoxu seemed to hear the slight gasping sound around her, and she slowly raised her head and looked at the Queen Mother.

The queen mother is dressed in court clothes, the large east pearl is shining with a warm streamer, and the red robe is embroidered with the pattern of a hundred birds and a phoenix, with a gorgeous pearl and emerald, which looks extravagant.

And the most majestic thing is the Queen Mother's eyes, the corners of the eyes are slightly raised, but the pupils are extremely black, like a deep well, which can suck all the internal organs of people into it.

"It's really good-looking, and the mourning family likes it when they look at it." The Queen Mother smiled slightly, "If it weren't for your father's bad eyes and need you to take care of him, the mourning family really wanted to take you to the palace and talk to the mourning family." ”

Yu Ruoxu was taken aback, and a cold sweat suddenly broke out on her body, "Xie Niangniang praised." ”

Yu Zhongjun also took a step forward, and was about to say something, when he suddenly heard the little emperor "snort", "If the queen mother likes it, just call her into the palace at any time to talk, is it possible that Lord Yu's mansion can't leave Miss for a moment?" ”

Yu Ruoxu suddenly made a big alarm bell, but she didn't expect the Queen Mother to smile gently, "This is also true, the emperor has also grown up, and he knows that he is thinking about the mourning family." Then he took Yu Ruoxu's hand, "What does Miss Yu think?" ”

Yu Ruoxu glanced at Yu Zhongjun, and then still looked low, "The people's daughter obeys the order, and the emperor and the mother are pitiful." ”

Yu Zhongjun was called to Beijing to serve as the emperor's teacher this time, which can be regarded as a major event in the capital. The palace was not stingy, and directly allocated a house to the Yu family at the foot of the imperial city, and after a few days of hurry, it was finally almost cleaned up.

The Yu family currently has no housewife in the capital, so everything in the house is handled by Yu Ruoxu.

"Miss, today, the head of the household department, the squire of the military department, and the master of the Ministry of Rites have all sent posts and gifts, saying that they want to visit the lord and the young lady." As he spoke, the housekeeper asked the servant to carry the gift to the table, and then sorted out the post and handed it to Yu Ruoxu.

Yu Ruoxu looked at the boxes on the table, today, plus the previous two days, it is estimated that the temporary warehouse will be crowded. She thought for a while, "Just like the previous two days, make a list of gifts for me, and then put them in the warehouse as they were, and the posts were all as before, saying that they were busy with housework these days, and they must go to the house of the adults to apologize in a few days." ”

The butler already looked surprised," the old slave understood. Then he told the servant to start cleaning up the gifts.

After bathing in the evening, the maid Xiu'er wiped Yu Ruoxu's hair with a silk handkerchief, and said slowly, "Miss, the slave went out today, and I heard a lot of people talking about Miss. “

"Oh?" Yu Ruoxu raised her eyebrows slightly, "What are you talking about me?" ”

"Say ......" Xiu'er pursed her lips, "said that Miss is rich and noble, and she will definitely be able to honor the world in the future." ”

Yu Ruoxu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly smiled with crooked eyebrows, "Those people said as if they had seen me with their own eyes, and besides, what kind of mother is the world, the emperor is only thirteen years old this year, and he is not afraid of colliding with those nobles in the palace!" ”

Xiu'er was a little anxious, "Ouch, my miss, it's not because the Queen Mother said that she likes Miss or something in front of so many people, plus the identity of the master, people outside will say these things nonsense!" ”

Yu Ruoxu restrained her smile and shook her head, "Xiu'er, do you know why the Queen Mother suddenly said that she likes me and wants me to accompany her in the palace?" ”

Xiu'er thought for a moment, "The slave is stupid. ”

Yu Ruoxu raised her hand and smoothed her wet hair, and said casually, "Because...... The Queen Mother needs a hostage in the palace. ”

"Hostages?!" Xiu'er was so shocked that she even knotted her tongue, "Then, ...... you, that young lady"

Yu Ruoxu smiled and shook her head, "Don't be nervous, the Queen Mother won't do anything to me." Although my father has entered Beijing, the Queen Mother is still not at ease with our Yu family. ”

Xiu'er was stunned for a moment.

Yu Ruoxu patted her hand, "Okay, your hair is almost dry, you go down first." ”

When Xiu'er retreated, Yu Ruoxu sat at the table and began to sort out the list of gifts for the past few days.

Liang Zheng, the head of the household, 100 East Pearls, 200 corals......

Dingyuan Marquis Liang Hongyi, 100 Ganoderma lucidum, 300 taels of gold......

Guo Chang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites......

Liang Pei, the secretary of the Criminal Department......

Liu Changqing, a waiter in the Ministry of Works......

Yu Ruoxu sneered, it seems that the rumors are true, most of this court is in the hands of the Liang family. If this continues, the entire country can change its surname to Liang.
