Chapter 314: Distant Cousin
After Concubine Hua came back, Cheng Ya went to visit her with her stomach up, but Cheng Wei stayed in the East Palace, always a little uneasy.
In the evening, the concubine held a banquet in the Changchun Palace, and Cheng Wei had the opportunity to go.
On the way, Cheng Ya explained to Cheng Wei: "It is said that the concubine Niangniang brought our distant cousin into the palace, but I didn't see anyone when I went to meet him during the day, and I wanted to meet him when I came to dinner." Third sister, I always feel that this matter is not quite right, and when I see that distant cousin later, no matter what, I must be calm on my face. β
Cheng Wei stretched out his hand and shook Cheng Ya's hand.
Cheng Ya has been pregnant for more than eight months, and her hands are a little swollen, Cheng Wei thought to herself, it's time to make rune water for her eldest sister to remove edema.
"Big sister, don't worry, I won't be reckless."
The Changchun Palace where Concubine Hua lives is much more magnificent than the Zhaochun Palace where Concubine Shu lives. It is not that the Changchun Palace occupies a large area, but the brand-new glazed tiles, rare flowers and trees, and the spacious and clear gold brick road, all of which reveal the dignity of the owner.
Cheng Wei hugged Cheng Ya tightly, for fear that she would step on the bright gold brick and accidentally slip.
Cheng Ya couldn't help but smile: "Don't be so careful, I often walk this way." β
She is a daughter-in-law, and when she is not pregnant, she goes to ask Concubine Hua for peace.
Over the years, Cheng Ya has always been unable to figure out the attitude of this mother-in-law.
She knew that it was Hua Guifei who resolutely refused to let go and cut off her niece's way to enter the palace, so she became the crown princess smoothly, but over the years, she couldn't feel how much the concubine Niangniang favored her.
Just in Cheng Ya's heart and Cheng Wei's curiosity. The two sisters stepped into the Changchun Palace.
"The crown princess has arrivedβ"
In the singing of the waiter, Cheng Ya walked calmly and led Cheng Wei in. Ying Ying bowed: "The daughter-in-law greets the mother concubine." β
"Give the crown princess a seat." Concubine Hua's lazy voice sounded, a little similar to the crown prince, "You are heavy, so you don't need to be polite." β
Concubine Hua stroked her newly dyed light blue nails, swept Cheng Wei, who was squatting down, and said leisurely: "I haven't seen you for a few months, Miss Cheng San seems to have grown taller again." Get up. Let Hongu take a good look. β
Cheng Wei stood up.
Hua Guifei's eyes lingered on Cheng Wei's face for a while, and she smiled: "Sure enough, it is getting more and more beautiful." Crown Princess, don't restrain your sister. Take her to a seat, just a few of us tonight, this palace is for you sisters to meet. By the way, the prince will come over later. β
Hua Guifei finished speaking. Glancing at the maid standing beside him: "Go and invite Miss Xiao to come over." β
"Yes."
Not much. The bead curtain is swaying, before the people arrive, the fragrance of the cold plum has already drifted, in this season where the summer heat has not passed, it is a little abrupt, but it is just right to grip the heartstrings.
Cheng Wei held his breath and stared at the door.
Although Cheng Ya's face was not obvious, the hand in her sleeve was quietly clenched.
A palace girl entered.
She was of moderate stature. Dressed in plain clothes, with a pale red ribbon around her waist. With a pair of transparent Pisces wearing a pressure skirt, walking between the steps, step by step, step by step, let people just look at their posture, has been heartbeat.
Cheng Wei's eyes widened, if he hadn't warned himself a long time ago to calm down, he would almost knock over the tea in his hand.
This girl who came here is clearly Cheng Yao!
Yes, from the perspective of temperament, the person in front of him is a little different. If the previous Cheng Yao was like a hibiscus out of the water, then the girl in front of her was like a plum blooming in the cold wind, proud and dustless.
Cheng Yao is neither fat nor thin, but the girl in front of her is weak, and the chill seems to come out of her bones.
But no matter how it changes, it is impossible for Cheng Wei to recognize the wrong person, this is Cheng Yao!
Did she think that a loach with a shell on its back could hold a turtle?
Cheng Wei couldn't help but look at Cheng Ya.
Cheng Ya soothed her hand and signaled to be calm, but she didn't know that her fingertips were already cold.
Cheng Wei calmed down and held Cheng Ya with his backhand.
The big sister was frightened, and she couldn't mess around.
Concubine Hua was obviously much more enthusiastic about Cheng Yao, and before she could step forward, she smiled and said, "Xiao'er, in Qingliang Mountain, don't you often say that you want to meet Old Lady Meng and a few cousins?" Isn't this just two cousins in front of you. Wait for tomorrow, let Miss Cheng San take you back to Huairenbo Mansion to meet Mrs. Meng. β
"Thank you for your love." Cheng Yao walked over and saluted Cheng Ya and the others, "Meng Xiao has seen the crown princess and cousin Wei. β
Cheng Ya has been the crown princess for a few years, but she can still calm down on her face, personally pulled Cheng Yao up, looked at her carefully, and said with a smile: "Is Sister Meng Xiao the granddaughter of her grandmother?" I've never seen anything before. I don't know if Sister Meng Xiao has ever heard of someone say that you are very much like a person. β
Cheng Yao had a reserved smile on the corner of her mouth: "When I was in Qingliang Mountain, my sister heard about it." It was my cousin who recognized the wrong person, and I realized that I was born seven or eight points similar to the second sister of the crown princess. Unfortunately, I heard that my cousin had unfortunately passed away. β
Cheng Wei raised his eyebrows.
This is called seven or eight points of imagination? Cheng Yao really dared to say anything.
Her heart was churning, and she wanted to ask Cheng Yao what was going on with all this and what bad ideas she was fighting, but she still endured it.
Cheng Yao looked at Cheng Wei, with a light smile on the corner of her mouth: "Cousin Wei is really a rare beauty." I've been known for a long time to my cousin. β
"Really? I've never heard of Cousin Meng Xiao. Cheng Wei said lukewarmly.
Hua Guifei opened her mouth: "Look at your cousins, I can't even sit down when we talk." Crown princess, sit down, don't be tired of the child in your womb. β
Cheng Ya sat down according to her words, thinking that the fright was already big enough, but she didn't expect Hua Guifei to speak again, which was really jaw-dropping.
"The crown princess must have heard that the palace got malaria in Qingliang Mountain, and she almost ...... Fortunately, your cousin saved Bengong's life with magic medicine, and then served Bengong with all his heart, so that Bengong's body could recover so quickly. Hua Guifei took Cheng Yao's hand, "By the way, this palace has accepted Xiao'er as a righteous daughter, and I can accompany you in the palace in the future." β
"What?" Cheng Ya, who had always been steady, finally couldn't help but change her face, looked at Cheng Yao in surprise, and the tea Gu in her hand was touched and shook.
Instead, Cheng Wei stretched out his hand, grasped the tea Gu firmly in his hand, and took a sip of it, so as to hide the turbulent waves in his heart.
Things have come full circle, no matter what the reasons are, Cheng Yao is still like in the nightmare, when the eldest sister is about to give birth, she entered the palace!
The difference is that she is also in the palace.
So this time, will she lose to Cheng Yao?
Cheng Wei looked over, and Cheng Yao looked over at this time. (To be continued.) )
