The car traveled all the way, and Gu Ci didn't know where he would pass by, so he didn't ask.

The sunlight shattered on the curtain of the small window beside her, and the small yellow beech wood carved table in front of her illuminated the black lacquered golden plum box on the table was dazzling, and it was full of her favorite snacks. In fact, there is a faint figure outside the curtain, but with her eyesight, she can't see clearly, and it is impossible to lift it to see, which is an inappropriate move.

In addition to the noisy sound of horses' hooves outside the car, you can still hear some shouting, walking and talking sounds from far and near, which is already in the city.

Although it was not the crowd in the downtown area, it also made her feel like she had suddenly come to life, as if her feet had stepped on the ground: it turns out that these are real, my relatives are not NPCs, I really live in this era......

Gu Ci touched his mother's warm and smooth hand, closed his eyes with peace of mind, and was about to sigh at this cognition - he fell asleep in seconds.

When she was woken up by her mother's little hand, she found that she had changed places, sitting in a sedan chair with her mother, followed by Hu's mother's footsteps, and there were many people around who were following them, but except for messy footsteps and a slightly rapid kicking, there was no cough.

Is this already in the palace, and I haven't seen that the door of the palace is the same as the Forbidden City, with vermilion paint as the bottom, and nine rows and nine columns of gilded copper nails......

Gu Ci expressed deep regret.

They staggered all the way forward, passing through many portals. The air smelled of swept water and a little bit of dust.

The sedan chair was finally put down. Hu's mother took care of her eyes and let her slowly adapt to the sunshine outside. When Hu's mother put her down, she saw that they had entered a side hall.

Mother Hu whispered: "County Lord, it's good to visit the Queen Mother three times in a while, and you don't need to salute others." ”

Anyone else? Who will it be? The princess and princess? Concubines?

But when Yuyi took her hand and walked inside, she immediately couldn't think of those messy thoughts.

There were so many people in the house that the threshold for her entry was almost higher than hers. After her mother stepped over, she motioned for Mother Hu to pick her up, but she never liked to let her subordinates carry her in and out, and felt that she should be able to pass, so she raised her feet and stepped forward without waiting for Mother Hu to squat down.

…… Overestimating herself too much, she was riding on the threshold, her feet couldn't touch the ground, and she hesitated: whether to roll over and roll in or call Mother Hu......

Suddenly, his eyes darkened, and then his body lightened, and in a blink of an eye, the whole person was taken into his arms. Holding her was a beautiful young man with sideburns and picturesque eyebrows, a pair of delicate phoenix eyes, wearing a jade crown, and a purple shirt with a red collar and narrow sleeves, which looked taller than the seventh brother Gu Xi.

Who's this? Gu Ci subconsciously showed him a big smile.

The boy hugged her and threw her up, and smiled as loudly as a mountain spring, "Ah Luan? ”

Gu Xiaonyo hugged the little handsome guy's neck in a fluctuating mood and began to set almost: "Yes." Little brother, do you know me? ”

A gentle female voice came from the hall, with a little bit of the vicissitudes of age: "Brother Yuan, let me see Ah Luan!" ”

The little handsome guy entered the door and gently put her down, and walked forward hand in hand.

With Gu Ci's height, he could only see pieces of splendid skirts and all kinds of gold brocades, swaying and blooming like a high-class ball in the silent film era.

There are also all kinds of fragrances, strong, light, warm and fragrant, maybe they are quite fragrant and pleasant when they are separated, but it is a little difficult to get together Her nose is slightly more sensitive than ordinary people.

The hall is still very bright, and there is a noble lady sitting at the head, who should be a little old, with a shallow smile on her face, looking very gentle, but it makes people not have the slightest presumptuousness. Sitting next to her is her own mother, so she is the grandmother of the Queen Mother, right?

"Ah Luan, come here, let grandmother hug me!" The Queen Mother was a little anxious.

Gu Ci looked at the thick cushion in the middle with some hesitation.

Yuyi smiled and said, "Don't worry, Queen Mother, Ah Luan hasn't saluted you yet." ”

When he bowed down, it seemed that the mat was too thick and soft, and as soon as his left knee fell, his body lost his balance and rolled to the side like a ball.

Sporadic laughter came from where the women were seated.

The handsome little guy behind him picked her up, helped her stand up, and touched her head comfortingly.

Yuyi cleared her throat from above, and the hall returned to silence.

Gu excused herself and bowed, this time she was very serious, and she thought she was kneeling steadily. But the soft mat, the fleshy body, the short hands and short feet, all kinds of factors are superimposed - the head has not touched the mat, and the world is spinning in front of him, crooked to the side, directly at the feet of the little handsome guy, but he can't finish this salute.

The Queen Mother couldn't help it, she wanted to laugh and said distressedly: "Hold it up!" Such a young child, what to worship! It's too hard for her to be a mother. ”

The handsome little guy picked her up, sat down next to the Queen Mother, and put her on his lap.

finally saw the appearance of the queen mother clearly, and her smile was very similar to her mother's mother, her face was beautiful, gentle and amiable.

The Queen Mother touched Gu Ci's little head and praised softly: "What a beautiful child." ”

Yuyi said while drinking tea: "Ah Luan, why don't you speak?" ”

"Say hello to Grandmother." Xiao Fuwa's soft and glutinous voice was very sweet, her little paws hugged each other and rubbed it, and then shyly buried her head on the little handsome guy's shoulder and rubbed it, "...... Say goodbye to my grandmother later. ”

It's a shame, and children are also self-respecting.

"Don't be in a hurry, wait until you're older. My family is a good child, and my grandmother is happy to see you. Her palm was warm and soft, and it was very comfortable to caress Gu Ci's tender face gently.

"I'm so happy to see my grandmother!"

"Oh? Why? ”

"Grandmother is so young and beautiful!"

The Queen Mother suddenly smiled, and the women below also cheered and began to praise Gu Ci. Of course, Gu Ci didn't need to respond to them, they talked about her, but they were all looking at the Queen Mother and Yuyi.

Yuyi smiled reservedly, turned her head and teased her daughter: "Did Ah Luan thank you for your seventh cousin?" ”

This is her seventh cousin? The Seven Princes?

"Thank you, Cousin Seven!" Gu Ci called the little handsome guy softly, his little face was flushed, but he had some regrets in his heart: Prince, you can only watch it from afar...... That's what it will be like to play around......

Yuan Yi, the seventh prince, took a piece of pine nut candy to tease her, and the two villains chatted quietly ignoring others.

"It's too angry to call my cousin, call 'Seventh Brother' to listen."

"But I have a seventh brother......"

"What then?"

"You're older than me, you have to figure out a way."

The little handsome guy is deliberately teasing me, Emma, if I'm older, it's a good **! So shy and happy!

"Can't think of it."

"Ask someone older than you."

"Why don't you let your seventh brother be the eighth brother behind me."

"No, I have a lot of brothers, if you stuff it in, it will be messy."

"Oh, your family is so troublesome. Then you will come to my house and be my sister. ”

"Don't you have a sister? It's so pathetic! ”

"I don't have such a cute and beautiful sister!"

"Little brother, you know the goods too well!"

≧▽≦, oops, so shy, the little handsome guy's sweet words are full of talent points! I don't want to resist at all!

The Queen Mother on the side has been paying attention to their comings and goings, and when she heard Gu Ci say something funny, she couldn't help but laugh out loud. The beauties below don't know why, and some of them are shy.

The Queen Mother coughed and said to everyone kindly: "I am also tired, so let's disperse today." Then he served tea.

The beauties and warblers said Wanfu and retreated, Yuyi waved away the palace people who were waiting, and exhaled happily, "It's really not too many people to watch the excitement." ”

The Queen Mother hugged Gu Ci from the hands of the Seventh Prince, kissed her face, and asked her, "Where did you learn this quirky little girl?" Your master won't teach that. ”

Yuyi smiled and uncovered her daughter's bottom, "She, if she can crawl, she refuses to stay in the house, and she doesn't like to be hugged, so she drags a small cane and runs around when she can walk, and the porter, kitchen, and stable." The master didn't hold her back, and even the front hall of the temple let her go to it several times, and she didn't know how many words she had learned. ”

Although it was a joke, when I thought of my daughter's little one, trying to move forward little by little with a pathfinder stick, my heart was sour, and my eyes were red.

The Queen Mother couldn't stand it even more when she heard it, she hugged Gu Ci and refused to let go, and she almost burst into tears with a shout of 'heart, liver and flesh'.

I heard the palace maid outside the door report: "Your Majesty is here."

Hey?

Gu Ci tried to open his eyes wide, and a tall and tall figure walked in with the light on his back.

This is the Emperor? But why didn't you wear a golden five-clawed nine-pan dragon python robe?

The emperor is not very old, it seems that he is only in his thirties, he has no beard, he is wearing a azure regular robe, and he wears a plain gold gauze crown on his head, and he is slightly tired. His appearance is seven or eight points similar to Yuyi, very handsome, with a faint smile on his face, elegant and graceful.

To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that everyone except the Queen Mother would have gotten up to worship him, Gu Ci really didn't think that this was the emperor, and the image on TV was too different, and there was no domineering at all.

The emperor sat down on the left side of the Queen Mother, and Gu Ci returned to Yuan Yi's hands and moved to the first chair on the lower left side of the emperor.

The emperor lowered his eyes and stared at the little thing in Yuan Yi's arms for a long time, and then suddenly said, "This is Ah Luan?" Then he paused, "Why don't you speak?" Didn't you say it would call people? ”

"I've seen the emperor, say hello to my uncle" Gu Cicai realized that he hadn't saluted yet, and hurriedly folded his two little paws together and shook them twice.

The emperor's eyes were dark and deep, and his gaze appeared ...... Some are overly focused. beckoned to her, and Yuan Yi handed her over.

Gu Ci felt that his ribs were tight, his legs had left the ground, and he was picked up by the emperor.

Then she seemed to smell a scent of wood blossoms, which smelled good, but maybe there were sequelae of the previous strong fragrance, she suddenly felt an itchy nose, and before she could hold her breath, a big sneeze had already come out.

The Imperial Front is out of order. Gu Ci covered his nose with an innocent expression.

However, the emperor obviously didn't care at all, but his hands seemed to be trembling slightly. Then he gently stroked her back, and only began to ask for a long time:

"I got a box of pink pearls yesterday, Ah Luan likes it?"

Is it a saltwater pearl? Wasn't it rare in ancient times? Gu Ci didn't know what to say, so he nodded.

The emperor saw that she didn't show a particularly happy expression, and smiled at the queen mother: "Ah Luan is actually a person who doesn't like jewelry. ”

"She loves to eat." The unscrupulous mother complained in time.

Gu Ci felt that the topic of eating was safer, and he raised his head and said to the emperor in a well-behaved manner: "Thank you uncle for the watermelon." Then he glanced at Yuyi and hinted: "Mother, that yogurt ......"

"It's been dedicated a long time ago, the little girl who loves to show off!" Yu Yiyu pointed to her daughter.

"That fruit yogurt is really good to eat in summer, Ah Luan is really thoughtful."

Professionally praise the Seven Princes and give you thirty-two likes.

"This is our filial piety. The emperor has to dig into the family to see if there are other good things. The Queen Mother smiled lovingly.

The emperor pretended to be distressed and said, "It seems that I have to pay for it." ”

Mu Wanqing, the chief waiter, stepped forward and handed over a purse, and the emperor took out a piece of white jade pendant from it and put it in Gu Ci's hand. What a good thing! Quickly tear open the load bag and put it in your pocket.

"Thank you, uncle!" Twice as sweet. Gu Ci looked at the emperor with a pair of starry eyes, and generously gave a fragrant kiss.

The emperor was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled widely, and suddenly seemed to be more than ten years younger. Then he touched her face lightly and put her down on the ground: "Ah Luan, go outside with Brother Yuan to play for a while." ”

Yuan Yi picked her up and walked out, followed by Mother Hu, who was waiting at the door.

***********************

In order not to stab his eyes, Gu Ci buried his head in Yuan Yi's arms, and said in a loud voice: "It's too bright outside, I have to slow down." ”

"Would you like to go to my house and see the water lilies?" Yuan Yi looked at her lovingly and covered her head with her sleeve.

He has his own room in Cining Palace, and the east side hall belongs to him, and the furniture is readily available. I wanted to take her to the garden for a walk, but next time.

"Okay. What else is there besides water lilies? ”

"Do you like the cherries?"

"I like it. Anything else not? ”

"I also have a few koi fish."

"This fish is not tasty, it tastes fishy."

“……”

Yuan Yi took her into the south-facing study of the East Side Hall, with blue bricks paving the floor, Goryeo paper-paste windows, and only in the middle of the study there was a large painting case of red sandalwood carving auspicious clouds and dragon patterns, and two matching carved sea beast pattern circle chairs.

Sunlight shone through the open window on the table, and a jar of shallow-mouthed and round-bellied Jun kiln white-tire porcelain vases, and a half-unfolded snow-white prismatic paper were dyed with a layer of warm and light pale gold.

Against the walls are bookshelves more than one person high, densely packed with books.

In the corner under the window, a beautiful woman of Song white porcelain flutters butterflies and big flowers, with two big red hibiscus flowers, one high and one low, and the air of joy is blowing in the face.

Next to the painting case, there is a huge ice crack printed blue and white porcelain jar, which is filled with all kinds of scrolls, and on the painting case, there is an old dark carved dragon pattern Ji red porcelain pen holder, and a large number of used pens are inserted. On the side is an enamel box inlaid with lotus patterns, the color is gorgeous, the workmanship is exquisite, a piece of old inkstone with most of the use, a small finger-like thickness of black ink across the ink bed, has not been stained with water has smelled a faint musk. There are also several printing boxes of different sizes, which are elegant and extraordinary. On the desk is a set of tea sets with pastel azure glaze, slightly exuding the fragrance of tea.

Gu Ci was put on the chair, looking at the bookcase that was level with her head, a little depressed. Turning his head to look at a picture of red plum and proud snow behind him. There is also an old sword hanging next to the painting, and the glass beads on the spike of the sword are shining.

Yuan Yi stood at the other end of the painting and was about to sit down, and found that she was almost nowhere to be seen, so she couldn't help laughing. I picked her up and put her on the table, looked down and looked at a pair of delicate little shoes on her feet. On the tip of the shoe is embroidered a golden red fat fish, and the fish mouth also holds a peanut-sized pearl, which is exquisite. The shoes didn't seem to be half the size of his palm, and they were lined with white velvet socks, which were really cute. After thinking about it, he took off her shoes and put the whole person on the bookcase.

Gu Ci also felt that this was better than circling on a chair, and crawled to the side of the printing box with his hands and feet to look at it carefully.

There are four printing boxes, one is a blue and white colorful porcelain box, the body is painted with two pairs of dragon and phoenix ornaments, inside is a plum blossom lying deer button of the three-inch long bloodstone idle chapter, as big as her small fist, Yuan Yi saw that she was interested, so she took out the ink clay, unfolded a piece of white linen paper, held her hand and took the seal buckle a Zhu article, "These words are 'Yining Zhai', my study." ”

He opened another red agate seal box that seemed to be old, the color of the box was mottled, the simple fish pattern was smooth and delicate, and inside was the yellow seal of the four corners of the rabbit button, two inches square, and it was a white text on the paper, "'Jiayan', my small characters, remember?" ”。

"Remembered. Rabbit? ”

"Well, I'm a rabbit, what about you?"

“…… Pig. ”

"Well, people are like what they are."

"It's not a good ......"

Yuan Yi smiled and twisted a stone seal of less than an inch of pine crane button Shoushan from a snow-white and translucent ivory seal box, the pine needles on it were exquisite, the carving was extremely fine, and it was also a yang article printed on the paper, "'Yuan Yi', this is my name." ”

"So your name is 'Brother Yuan'?"

"It's the 'yuan' of your title 'Yuanyi'."

Yuan Yuan? Isn't it just a ball? Gu Ci nodded to indicate that he remembered. It doesn't matter if you can't remember, anyway, I'll go back to find Hu's mother to make up for the class. Then she looked at the largest mutton fat jade seal box left, opened it, and suddenly felt like she was going to blind her pair of kryptonite peach blossom eyes! Inside is a pure gold jade seal four inches thick and two inches thick, with a five-clawed squatting dragon as a button. This is obviously the prince's golden treasure!

No, the squatting dragon should be the prince, right......

Seeing the living prince Jinbao for the first time in his life, Gu Ci held his breath and tried to calm the agitation in his heart, timidly stretched out a little finger and gently touched the dragon head on the printing button.

That's what this stuff is on the bookcase?! Shouldn't it be hidden with the edict of the dress?

It's so unscientific......

Yuan Yi looked at the little finger that was so tender in the sun that it seemed to be transparent rubbing the dragon's head, and involuntarily kissed her petal face, explaining: "This, I can't show it to you now...... Well, do you want to carve a small chapter for you? Then he turned around and shouted, "Ming Fang, go to the warehouse and get some small prints." ”

Someone left immediately.

But in a quarter of an hour, Yuan Yi had just finished feeding Gu Ci a small plate of cherries, and a person wearing a chamberlain costume came in outside the door and reported back: "Your Highness, the few prints in the library that are suitable for the little lady are here." Then he put down the tray in his hand, added a dish of tea to them, and bowed slightly.

Gu Ci looked at him curiously, this person didn't look like a eunuch at all, but like a Confucian who had read poetry and books, his smile was also very gentle, and his tone of speech was humble but not inferior and obscene, if he didn't know his identity, he would think that he was a personable son of a family, not a eunuch with a humble status.

There were several small printing boxes in the tray, and Yuan Yi opened them one by one to show her.

The first gold-lacquered luodian box with plum blossoms painted is a small square Tianhuang stone, and the seal button is a cicada lying on a bamboo, the color is bright and pretty, and the texture is as soft as a baby's skin.

The second is the copper gilt inlaid gold silk screen printing box of the mother and son mouth, the cover surface has the inlaid fish and bird pattern, the workmanship is exquisite, and it is loaded with a vertical bar Qingtian stone wool of the best sealing door green, which is waxy translucent, and has the luster of oil.

The third is a round azure glaze printing box, the enamel is pure and fat, the color is excellent, embedded with a sheep fat jade round seal, the seal button is carved is a butterfly love hibiscus flower, whether it is a butterfly whiskers or petals are lifelike, smart and abnormal, the end is ingenious.

Gu Ci was dizzying and eye-opening, these seals were all the right size, just enough for her little claws to hold.

Yuan Yi commented on her one by one: "This bamboo cicada can carve a small character for you, aren't you fast forward to learning, but you can use it." ”

"It's too much money......"

"The shape of this Qingtian is a little difficult, so you can't carve a standing pig......"

“…… Does it have to be a pig? ”

"Huh." Gu Ci's face was pumped again, "This white jade is very good, it is very suitable for you, but my current sword skills are not sophisticated enough, and it is a pity that it is carved badly......"

"You engraved?" Gu Ci was stunned.

"I specially learned the seal carving from Zhao Mengxuan."

"......" a prince who learns to carve seals?

"So, this cicada button is printed with an idle chapter that I carved a small character for you? This jade, what do you want to engrave, I'll let people get it. ”

"If I were your sister, how old would I be?"

"Nine."

"Hmm, 'Yuan Jiu'?"

Yuan Yi pondered, "It's a little too casual, your small character 'Xiya', why don't you just engrave 'Jiuya'?" ”

"This is good!"

Jiuya - piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, hops, tea, jade, the standard for talented women. However, Gu Yu, who didn't point this skill point, was a little weak-hearted......

"Ahem, I gave you everything, and you didn't show it?"

"Isn't this there yet?"

“…… That cherry ......"

"Bringing you the sauce of Wuwei Zhai's big elbow?" Gu Ci whispered over and said. I feel a little worried in my heart, and I don't know if there will be taboos in giving food......

Yuan Yi's eyes lit up, showing the unique freshness and agility of a teenager. He also whispered, "Can't you bring it in, wait for me to go to your house......"

The two of them snickered knowingly.

After a while, someone from Cining Palace asked Gu to resign, thinking that it was time to leave the palace.

Yuan Yi carried her out, still covering her face, and sent her to Cining Palace.

After saying goodbye to the Queen Mother and the Emperor, Yuan Yi strongly asked to send off the guests, and immediately picked up Gu Ci and walked out.

What stopped outside the palace gate this time was not a sedan chair, but two bright yellow shoulders. Mother Hu, who had been waiting beside her, hesitated to take Gu Ci, but Yuan Yi glanced at it, and she stepped back.

Yuyi laughed teasingly: "Ah Luan is in love with you, she is not let by anyone." Then he got on the front shoulder.

Gu Ci comforted: "Don't be jealous, mother, my favorite is you." It made everyone laugh.

Yuan Yi was in a good mood and instructed the sedan chair man to put down the curtains, put her into the sedan chair behind her, and pecked the tender apple face lightly before withdrawing to watch the mother and daughter leave.
