Chapter 37: The Emperor Appears
When the group arrived in the inner hall, the Queen Mother sat on the bright yellow couch and changed into a black long-lasting clothes.
Princess Sanssouci received some small things in her mother's palace halfway, and then invited the queen mother, so she hurriedly left Cining Palace.
The Queen Mother took a sip of tea slowly, and then looked at Bai Zhen'er in front of her with her head down, drinking tea like a little squirrel, this girl is really a delicate person. It's just that I don't know which one will be cheaper in the future.
While the Queen Mother was looking, Bai Zhen'er naturally noticed the Queen Mother's gaze, she was just silently doing what she should do at this age.
After entering the palace for so long, her mood has gradually stabilized. The most important thing now may not be to miss the past in the old place, but the Queen Mother's intention to summon her this time? Maybe the Queen Mother summoned herself, not just because of the county lord.
After waking up on this little girl, she meets the mysterious Taoist who reveals her identity. Later, the scarlet bamboo Taoist didn't know what to say to the Bai family, and the Bai family turned a blind eye to the great change in his personality and memory loss.
Later, I heard rumors outside: it was said that the eldest lady of the Bai family was born with a lack of soul, and the missing soul went to the underworld to reincarnate alone.
People actually believed this strange rumor, just because the rumor came out of Qin Tianjian, saying that it was a life approved by a master of Qin Tianjian himself.
She didn't know who Master Yi was, but what she did know was that the rumors from Qin Tianjian might have something to do with the mysterious Dao Master. It's a pity that since she came back from going to Mingyue Temple, she hasn't seen that mysterious Taoist.
The Taoist who knew his identity, and the Taoist who secretly helped him, although he didn't know what it meant, but after all, that person didn't do anything. I just don't know if it's a good thing or if it's a precursor.
The Queen Mother saw the little girl in front of her, who was still so calm and calm under her gaze, although her facial expression was a little dull. It's good to be able to do this at such a young age.
"What do you do at home? Do you like embroidery or drawing? ”
Facing the Queen Mother's inquiry, Bai Zhen'er hurriedly got up, "Back to the Queen Mother's words." ”
"Just call me ancestor like the clear sky." The Queen Mother interrupted her.
"It's the ancestor, Zhen'er learns embroidery on weekdays, and then learns housekeeping from her mother."
"Oh, it's really good at a young age, look at your white sister in the clear sky, you started to learn housekeeping at such a young age."
In the face of the queen mother's banter, Qingtian suddenly blushed, "The ancestors made fun of me, and Qingkong will ignore you in the future." ”
"Eh, what can I do?" The Queen Mother pretended to be annoyed and glanced at Bai Zhen'er, and then said with a smile: "Zhen'er is willing to come to the palace to accompany my old man?" ”
For other people, I am afraid that I would have cried with joy a long time ago, to be able to enter the palace to accompany the Queen Mother, and to get the favor of the Queen Mother, the future future is not brilliant.
But she was none other than her.
Bai Zhen'er had some surprise on her face, and there was some panic in the middle. She quickly knelt on the ground, lowered her head and said nothing.
After seeing this, Qingtian immediately said to the Queen Mother: "Ancestor, Sister Bai has just recovered from a serious illness, and she has to go to Daming Temple to repay her vows." After saying this, the clear sky made a tearful gesture, wiped his tears and said, "The ancestor dislikes the clear sky, where is the dislike, isn't the clear sky still the same?" ”
"You laipi monkey, it's obvious that you said to ignore the mourning family, and now you blame the mourning family, right?"
Qingkong smiled and grabbed the sleeve of the Queen Mother, and said coquettishly: "The ancestor is the best, and the Qingtian is the most, right?" ”
"Yes." The Queen Mother patted Qingtian's hand, and then said to the person who was still kneeling on the ground, "Get up." ”
"Thank you for the love of your ancestors." Bai Zhen'er got up slowly, and due to the intervention of the Clear Sky County Lord, this turmoil finally passed.
She knew there was something wrong with that.
This time, the queen mother chose a concubine for the prince, and then summoned herself lightly, there must be some reason in the middle. Fate, fate, the people in the royal family believe in this the most, and they don't believe in this the most, and it depends on the situation.
The Bai family is not a family of eunuchs, and it may be impossible for the concubine to be a concubine. Anyway, this Bai family is a nouveau riche from a poor family, maybe it's okay to have a side concubine or something.
It's just that these are not what she wants to see, to be a side concubine for the prince? It's ridiculous.
She is the Empress Dowager of the Ming Dynasty, how can she be like this? Isn't that ridiculous?
Even if this body belonged to Bai Zhen'er, she would not allow this to happen unless she died.
Bai Zhen'er's eyelids were lowered, and an unknown look quickly flashed in her eyes.
――
Soon it was time to pass the meal, and the Queen Mother got up to eat.
Bai Zhen'er and the Clear Sky County Lord were naturally left to eat by the Queen Mother, but the Clear Sky County Lord often stayed in Cining Palace to eat, and at this moment, the Clear Sky County Lord looked at the Bai family's sister with some concern.
Sensing the Sky Lord's gaze, she replied to the Sky Lord with a reassuring smile, saying that there was no need to worry. Mama had already taught her the rules of etiquette when she was in the house, and in her previous life, she lived in Mingyue Palace, and the battle every time she ate was much bigger than that of Cining Palace now.
The eunuchs and palace maids who came and went cautiously carried the food box in their hands, and so many people came in and out without making a sound.
The huge palace is extraordinarily quiet.
"The emperor has arrived~" A sharp voice suddenly came in from outside.
The servants in the room looked a little nervous, after all, the emperor was the person with the power of life and death in this harem.
After the Queen Mother heard the report from the emperor, her face did not change much. The Clear Sky County Lord and Bai Zhen'er stood up and waited aside, waiting for the arrival of the emperor in a regular manner.
After a while, a bright yellow figure appeared in the room, with a white jade crown and a bundle of hair, and his face was still the same as before, except for the slightly blessed body, there was no trace of old age in that person.
"See the Emperor." There were people kneeling in the room.
Bai Zhen'er lowered her head, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw the pair of boots embroidered with dragons.
Murong Hao, the current emperor of the Ming Kingdom. Now the outside world's evaluation of him is that he inherited the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty and created a new round of prosperity of the Ming Dynasty.
"Flat, flat." Murong Hao sat unceremoniously under the Queen Mother, rubbed his hands, and glanced at the dishes on the table.
"It just so happened that I was a little hungry, just in time for the queen mother to have dinner here, it was a coincidence, it was a coincidence." Murong Hao's hearty laughter echoed in the empty hall for a long time.
"Where is the coarse tea and light rice here and the emperor's taste? Don't come to the mourning house just to hide from someone. ”
Although the Queen Mother was said to be right, he came to Cining Palace to avoid the group of officials who let him be drafted. But Murong Hao still had a smile on his face, his eyes flickered, and he saw the little girl with her head bowed on the side.
He said to Bai Zhen'er: "This is the girl of the Bai family in Qin Tianjian's mouth? Sure enough, it's a cute child, look up and take a look. ”
Hearing Murong Hao's words, the corners of her mouth moved slightly, then adjusted her expression and slowly raised her head. An unopened little round face without makeup, the only thing worth looking at is the calm and waveless eyes.
At the same time as seeing those eyes, Murong Hao's eyes flashed with something unknown, this girl from the Bai family really looked aura, but those eyes were indeed a little discordant.
But soon Murong Hao came back to his senses and smiled: "Sure enough, he was born with aura, just like the flower fairy who came out of the painting." ”
"Maybe Sister Bai is really the flower fairy in the sky, and she has come down to earth for training." The county lord of the clear sky smiled and spoke again, the uncle of the ordinary emperor was also very good to her, and there were no outsiders in the Cining Palace, and the clear sky did not need to take into account so many rules.
Listening to what the Clear Sky County Lord said, Bai Zhen'er continued to pretend to be a silent little girl on the side.
"It's done, it's done, the emperor can't eat well when he comes to mourning, you take Zhen'er down to eat under the clear sky."
After hearing the Queen Mother's words, Qingkong obediently took Bai Zhen'er to salute and leave. The emperor is here, and they are naturally not qualified to dine with them.
After Qingtian and Bai Zhen'er retreated, the Queen Mother and Murong Hao had dinner under the service of the eunuchs and palace maids.
Eat silently, sleep silently. The room was quiet during the meal, and after half an hour of eating, the emperor helped the queen mother to get up and take a walk outside.
"Tell me, what's the matter with the emperor's visit this time?" The Queen Mother walked slowly, looking at the trees and flowers outside that remained unchanged day after day.
"It's not the lantern festival held by the queen mother, this morning someone asked me to recruit concubines in the draft. Erchen felt that the harem concubines were enough, and besides, I already had four sons and many daughters, so I didn't need to accept any more concubines. ”
"Isn't it good to spread the leaves for the royal family? Isn't it good to have a young concubine come in to relieve the emperor's boredom? Although the Queen Mother spoke like this, there was no banter in her expression at all.
Murong Hao continued with a sweat in his head: "The queen mother should stop teasing her son, how can her son be the kind of person who is obsessed with women." ”
"Well, the mourning family knows."
After getting the Queen Mother's answer, Murong Hao breathed a sigh of relief, the Queen Mother agreed, and the Queen Mother promised to explain that the people of the Taifu Party would definitely stand on his side.
The queen mother's family is a noble family, and the abbot is the official of the Ming Kingdom, and the Confucian family is full of dead-eyed people, but they are some loyal and patriotic people, and you can't do anything with them.
Sure enough, since ancient times, the emperor hated officials.
(Half past ten in the evening, no see.) I still have some entanglements about the plot in the palace, and I always feel that the description is not very good. )
