Chapter 49: Stunned

Xu Ru opened his eyes coldly, and what came into his eyes was a pair of goose yellow gauze tents - the layout of the Yanfu Palace's dormitory. What about the deep blue night sky, the lack of the moon, the stars and the Xuanxuan?

A series of doubts flooded into her mind, causing her to be confused, and she rubbed her temples in confusion.

Two palace maids were on duty in front of the bed, and when they saw Xu Ruliang wake up, one stepped forward to serve her to get up, and the other was going to report Yunbo, and happened to meet Yunbo who came in with the curtain.

Yun Bo was slightly stunned, "The county lord has already risen?" ”

Xu Ruliang sent others and said to her: "When did I come back last night?" How did you get back? ”

Yun Bo cautiously replied: "His Royal Highness sent you back at the moment." ”

"Why don't you wake me up?" Xu Ruliang frowned, why did he fall asleep last night? And I slept so dead that I didn't feel like I was being picked up from the roof...... Do you have a dream to tell the things in the dream?

Xu Ruliang was very worried.

Yun Bo said weakly: "Your Royal Highness ordered not to wake you up. ”

It's Mu Lianxuan again!

When did her Yunbo only listen to Mu Lianxuan's orders?

Xu Ruliang waved his hand angrily.

Yunbo didn't know why, so he could only wait patiently for her to lose his breath. After waiting for a quarter of an hour, she saw that she had no intention of dissipating her anger, so she had to remind in a low voice: "In two quarters of an hour, it will be time." ”

According to the palace rules, at the beginning of the morning, the concubines of the palace need to go to the Fengyi Hall to ask the queen for good morning.

At the beginning of Queen Xu Qin's reign, the concubines strictly adhered to the etiquette system, and the queen's majesty was extremely strict. However, with the "five births and five falls" and the sterilization of the phoenix body, the attitude of the concubines began to relax. Until recent years, after the queen turned forty, this unhealthy trend became more and more rampant, and even, the mother of the fifth princess, Xie Zhaoyi, often deliberately arrived late and left early, deliberately mocking the queen's face.

The queen is busy with business, and she has no intention of quarrelling.

But how can you swallow this breath?

Xu Ruliang planned to earn back face for her eldest aunt, and yesterday she specially explained that Yunbo woke her up earlier today, so that she could get to Fengyi Hall before all the concubines.

This party came back to his senses, Xu Ruliang hurriedly restrained his feelings, and dressed up.

Mao arrived at Fengyi Hall at three o'clock.

The queen was taking supplements, and she was quite surprised to hear the report that "the county lord of Danyang has arrived".

Mama Zhao smiled: "Although the county lord is young, he is the most polite. ”

"You never boast, it's the sun coming out in the west today?" The queen raised her eyelids slightly and glanced at her, her eyebrows could not hide her appreciation, relief and pride. Instructed someone to lead Xu Ruliang to the side hall for a rest.

Xu Ruliang followed his words and waited in the side hall in a proper manner.

After a while, several concubines of different colors appeared one after another.

Xu Ruliang roughly recognized it, but he didn't know any of them - after Mu Lianxuan ascended the throne in his previous life, a holy decree removed all the unborn concubines from the palace and went to Ganye Temple to practice.

After many years, Xu Ruliang has long forgotten these beautiful or aging faces, so he just stood calmly.

However, when several concubines saw Xu Ruliang, they were extremely surprised, and couldn't help but ask.

They were not late, and they maintained the most basic respect for the queen.

Xu Ruliang reciprocated the favor and replied very respectfully.

For a while, the atmosphere in the side hall was happy.

Then people came in one after another, and when they saw Xu Ruliang, their reactions were the same as the first ones. But Xu Ruliang's attitude became more and more tricky, his words were prickly, and he hid needles in his cotton, and stabbed a few people.

People before and after couldn't help but think in their hearts, what did the little county lord of Danyang do?

Or is it the queen's order to rectify the inner garden?

Thinking of the few holy decrees that had just been promulgated yesterday, the concubines invariably shuddered in their hearts, sweating for their sisters who were late, and gloating over someone who was about to bear the brunt of bad luck.

The time soon came.

At the end of the day, the queen was supported by people and came with money.

Xu Ruliang remembered carefully, except for Xie Zhaoyi and the mother and daughter of the fifth princess, as well as the mother and daughter of the sixth princess in the cold palace, the other concubines had arrived.

Sure enough, Xie Zhaoyi is the most difficult bone to gnaw.

Thinking of the past, Xu Ruliang quietly clenched his palms.

The Xie Zhaoyi she understands is arrogant, relying on family power, and is invincible, and does not take the queen in her eyes. In her previous life, Xie Zhaoyi stayed in the palace after being promoted to Concubine Xie and secretly stumbled on her many times. Until the Xie family was wiped out, the five princesses married into a vassal country, and after Concubine Xie was completely reduced to a lonely family, she still didn't know how to restrain herself, so she tried her best, and finally made a heartbreak "go to Huangquan with red makeup".

In this matter, Xu Ruliang has carried the black pot for a lifetime.

In this life, do you want to take revenge on the legacy of your previous life?

Xu Ruliang pondered, and the queen and the concubines talked with a smile.

It didn't take long for someone to get up and take their leave.

Yesterday, the emperor just gave the second prince a marriage, and according to the etiquette system, the woman should be thanked by the palace this morning. Everyone was very eye-catching and did not delay the queen's business, and left their seats one after another.

The side hall was empty all of a sudden.

The queen swept her eyes and noticed Xu Ruliang, who was silent next to the phoenix seat, and called in a low voice: "What is Ah Liang thinking?" ”

Xu Ruliang pulled back his thoughts abruptly and said, "Ah Liang was just wondering if he saw Xie Zhaoyi just now?" ”

Even though Xie Zhaoyi was intoxicated with embarrassing the queen, the emperor had just proposed marriage to her maiden niece, she should be proud to the sky, and it was the norm to rush to show off to the queen, right?

It's really unusual to be so faceless like this......

Xu Ruliang couldn't understand.

The queen was stunned for a moment, but soon regained her composure and said with a smile: "If you want to see your fifth princess sister, come with this palace." ”

It is true that the queen knows that Xu Ruliang and the fifth princess have never intersected, and Xu Ruliang will never want to see the fifth princess, but at this moment, only this one statement is most suitable.

Xu Ruliang obediently agreed and returned to the inner hall with the queen.

At the end of the day, the chamberlain informed the Wen family that the mother and daughter had arrived.

Xu Ruliang was stunned, wasn't Wen Luo already defeated? How can there be any matter about the Wen family?

Why did Wen Luo and her stepmother enter the palace?

Xu Ruliang hadn't seen the Wen family's mother and daughter yet, and another chamberlain came to inform Xie Zhaoyi that Xie Zhaoyi had arrived, the fifth princess had arrived, and the Xie family's mother and daughter had arrived.
