Chapter 274: Harmony (Finale 1)
*There's a lot of content, so the finale is divided into two parts*
"Emperor Xuan! You're here! On the eaves next to him, Shen Qing and Shen Heng flew down. I was very happy to see the man holding Zhirong clasping hands.
Jin Zixuan nodded towards the loyal couple: "It's hard work, I'll send your master back to the bedroom, you don't have to keep vigil here, go back and take care of the children." Chunhua, the decanting soup is sent in. ”
Shen Heng and Shen Qing only got married the year before last, and last year the two had a son. The two were overjoyed, and Zhirong loved that child even more. But despite this, the two of them have not forgotten their duties, and protecting Zhirong is still the most important thing in their hearts.
Zhirong didn't want them to work too hard, so he had already removed Shen Qing and Shen Heng from the position of the leader of the secret guard, and transferred it to Jin Ming and Ling'er. But the two were still not at ease, so they simply left the mansion next to Zhirong's mansion and came and went freely every day. If Zhirong was in the palace, Shen Qing would also follow him on the pretext of showing the child to his master.
But now that Jin Zixuan was there, they were relieved to hand over Zhirong to him. The two of them were also very sad to see Zhirong sad before, but at this moment, Jin Zixuan's arrival made their hanging hearts fall to the ground.
Qiu Rong and Dong Xiu made the bed, Jin Zixuan carefully put Zhirong on the bed, and then sat down and stared at Zhirong's blushing cheeks for a moment. It wasn't until the girls had withdrawn that he spoke slowly.
"Look at you, what have I been tossed into in my absence? I'm here today to tell you happy birthday, and. I'm going to get married, Zhirong. Jin Zixuan gently stroked her hot face, and her thin lips rose slightly. But there is an infinite amount of bitterness.
Chunhua brought the decanting soup, and Jin Zixuan fed Zhirong a small spoonful of it. Zhirong was slightly conscious, although she couldn't hear it, she knew that someone was taking care of her, so she also cooperated and drank the medicinal soup.
"Jin Zixuan, you're really going to get married." Zhirong's voice was a little whimpering, and she kept muttering intermittent words that were not very clear. "Why do you want to marry the Jingtang royal family, you bastard."
"Okay, I'm a bastard." Jin Zixuan wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes for her. Seeing her drunk and painful appearance was both distressing and joyful. "That's when you remembered me. Stinky woman! Won't go to see me for so many years. ”
Jin Zixuan approached her. With a smile, she gently smoothed her frowning brows, and looked at her deeply with affection. Chunhua and the others were waiting outside, not daring to make a sound. For fear of disturbing the two.
"Zhirong, the northern border is very prosperous and stable now, it is a great scene, I did what you wanted back then. I've been waiting for you all these years. But I'm afraid that you will never be able to get over that hurdle in your heart. Almost six years. Finally waited for this day. It's nice to see you like that. ”
He looked at Zhirong silently for a long time, with a smile on his face. It wasn't until very late that the lights went out and came out.
When Jin Zixuan came out, Chunhua stepped forward and saluted respectfully: "Emperor Xuan, do you really want to make peace with the Jingtang royal family?" It wasn't her turn to ask about this kind of thing, but seeing that Zhirong was so sad, she also asked about it on the charge of disrespect.
"Yes. If she wakes up and asks about it, you can answer it like this. After speaking, Jin Zixuan left the mansion.
On the second day, Zhirong woke up vaguely remembering the events of last night, the smell of that person and the tone of his voice. She has never forgotten. It seems that the letter is not a joke. Wen Yu didn't lie to her either. Jin Zixuan did come to Jingtang to propose to the royal family.
She couldn't help but sigh as she sat in front of the bronze mirror, Chunhua, who was combing her hair, saw all her emotions in her eyes. Thinking of Jin Zixuan's words last night, I felt depressed in my heart. "My lord, if you don't feel well today, don't go into the palace."
"After all, the queen personally sent someone to invite, and she still has to go. Besides, I haven't been back to the Shanggong Bureau for a few days, so I should go and take a look. Although Wenxin and Zhiyan are very capable, there are some places that are always uneasy. ”
Zhirong was puzzled when she saw a handshake on the dresser that had never been seen before. When did you add such a step, the workmanship is really exquisite, and the harem is rare. remembered that yesterday was my birthday, and Xu was sent by a caring lady.
"It's a good step, put it on for me."
Chunhua in surprise picked up the step and shook it for Zhirong to plug it in, Zhirong rarely wears such exquisite jewelry on weekdays, and I don't know what happened today. However, just a little jewelry was added, and the person in the mirror added a little more brilliance.
The years have made Zhirong mature, but it has made her more and more noble and has a queen-like aura. This may also be one of the reasons why the harem concubines are afraid of her and the female officials of the Shanggong Bureau worship her.
When Zhirong arrived at the Imperial Garden, all the concubines and several Shang Palace officials from various bureaus of the Shang Palace had already arrived. She walked over slowly and saluted Qiu Manhua and Wei Ting slightly: "To the queen mother, the imperial concubine please be safe." ”
"Excuse me, take a seat." The queen smiled and said, seeing that Zhirong was not dressed as Su Ya as before, but one more step, and the clothes were more magnificent, her heart was full of jealousy, but she smiled on the surface: "Bai Shanggong is dressed up very beautifully today." It seems that after the birthday, my heart is happy. ”
The next Murong Qiu immediately took over: "I can understand Bai Shanggong, his birthday is a year older, this time urges people to get old, if you don't dress up well, how can you marry someone in the future." ”
As soon as she said this, everyone didn't dare to speak again. Who doesn't know that she and Zhirong are incompatible in this palace. And these words are obviously sarcastic, and no one wants Zhirong people old.
Zhirong originally lowered his head to drink tea, but when he heard this, he only raised his head slightly, and a cold light swept over, and Murong Qiu instantly felt suffocated. She was not convinced in her heart, why did this woman be like a queen in the harem, but she had to endure it for so long, she still wanted to speak but was disturbed by Wei Ting.
"Queen Mother, don't you have something to tell you today?" Wei Ting gently reminded Qiu Manhua, and then smiled at Zhirong. Zhirong took her smile and lowered her head again to drink tea.
Qiu Manhua came back to his senses at this time and glanced at Murong Qiu. "There is something to announce today's recruitment, Emperor Xuan of the north has come to me to propose to the royal family, and the emperor has decided to marry the princess of the royal family to Emperor Xuan. And I think it's better to handle the palace and the marriage affairs of the family. It's going to be hard for Baishang Palace. ”
She also hates this woman, but letting her handle the marriage for the princess who is close to her relatives should be the most heart-stopping thing for Zhirong. As soon as she said this, even Murong Qiu put on a smug smile.
"This is a matter within the Shang Palace Bureau, and it is not hard to talk about." Zhirong raised her head and swept around, and a concubine who was watching the joke immediately lowered her head. "It's just that I don't know which princess has such a hard life to marry in such a bitter and cold place in the north."
"The palace is not clear, the emperor just said that it should be done according to the specifications of the eldest princess, and in addition to the dowry we prepared, the emperor will give several times at that time, and the eldest princess of previous dynasties has never had such a scenery."
After the end of the scene, Zhirong and Wei Ting enjoyed the scenery together, Wei Ting's son and Zhirong were very close, and they called an aunt one by one.
"Auntie, you are so beautiful today! More beautiful than those. ”
The child's speech is the most real, Zhirong was happy in her heart, and touched his head; "Sister, which princess is it? The queen doesn't know, you won't be unclear. ”
Wei Ting was stunned for a moment, and then smiled and said: "The person is indeed recommended by me, but the emperor asked him to keep it secret." Her eyes were full of smiles, which made Zhirong even more unpredictable.
Li You has been different from the past over the years, but this kind of thing will not be hidden from her. Could it be that Li You is also starting to be jealous of himself? Thinking about it like this, Zhirong's heart became even more dull.
The Shanggong Bureau began to prepare for the peace affair, except for the wedding dress, which was named by Jin Zixuan to be prepared by Zhirong, and other matters were equally divided between the bureaus.
Zhiyan has now become the head of the medical department, and the palace is determined not to marry again, while Zhishuang has already married and has three children. Zhirong, who is a sister, doesn't have to worry about it anymore.
She didn't want to live in the palace anymore, so she handed over things to Wen Xin and Zhiyan, and went back to the house to embroider the wedding dress. During this period, he also took leave from Li You and did not go to the court, but he also heard a lot about Jin Zixuan.
Thinking that the wedding dress in her hand belonged to Jin Zixuan's future wife, she clutched the fabric tightly in her heart, and really wanted to tear the material apart. I didn't know that it wasn't until Jin Zixuan married that she realized that she would be in pain, and her heart was like a knife.
Unconsciously tears fell on the bright red material, and at this time, the door was suddenly pushed open, Zhirong hurriedly wiped her tears, and froze for a moment. The person who came turned out to be Jin Zixuan.
"What are you doing here alone?"
Zhirong's gaze followed Jin Zixuan's figure until he sat down and drank tea leisurely. Zhirong frowned vigorously without turning her head, hoping that she could be more sober.
"Knowingly, this piece of fabric in my hand is your future queen's wedding dress. Isn't that what you're asking for? Zhirong pulled out the fabric and showed it to Jin Zixuan. You can look carefully, this is the palace's special cloud brocade, I use the best embroidery, I believe you will not be disappointed. ”
Jin Zixuan looked at the red eye-catching fabric, and a smile unfolded: "It seems that Li You really attaches great importance to this harmony, and the wedding dress is personally embroidered by you from the prince and the head of the Shang Palace Bureau, Shang Gong, and it really won't treat my bride badly." ”
He took off the silver mask on half of his face, and the original hideous scar had faded a lot, and it was basically impossible to see if he didn't look closely. At noon, the sun is shining indoors. The light shines on his handsome face, which makes him even more handsome, and the whole person is full of brilliance.
Zhirong admired in his heart and scolded at the same time, this guy doesn't know how many women there are. She casually threw the material aside, looked at Jin Zixuan coldly, and said angrily: "You didn't come today to see the wedding dress, right?" ”
"Naturally not. I have something to say to you. Jin Zixuan replied very simply, he stared at Zhirong seriously, and his face was slightly sad. (To be continued......)
