Chapter 264: Entering the Palace

The carriage had already stopped at the door, and Xu Qirong couldn't find an excuse not to go, not to mention that she was still on the run.

Xu Qirong didn't understand what the fifteenth princess meant, and he didn't receive the news from Hua Yude, so he had to respond to all changes with the same change, changed into decent clothes, and took Qiu Nong to the carriage sent by the fifteenth princess.

After the master and servant got into the carriage, no one accosted them, and the messengers and charioters were silent, and the inside of the carriage was in stark contrast to the noisy street outside, which matched Xu Qirong's current heavy mood.

Qiu Nong comforted in a low voice: "Girl, the fifteenth princess used to be good to us, maybe there was an unexpected joy when she entered the palace this time, and the girl shouldn't think too pessimistic about everything." ”

Xu Qirong smiled bitterly: "It's not that I'm too pessimistic about everything, haven't you noticed, since Cousin Ru married Lu Gongzi, the connection between Her Royal Highness the princess and us has been slowly broken." There is such a big thing in the Xu family, even if Her Royal Highness the princess doesn't know, the people around her should remind her. No one can guess what it means to call me into the palace now. ”

Qiu Nong's face was full of worry, and he was even more worried when he heard this, he didn't know whether to annoy Xu Tingyuan, who caused the incident, or Shen Yaru, who made them drift away from the fifteenth princess, so he had to purse his lips and stop talking. In my heart, I thought that when I arrived in the palace, if the fifteenth princess embarrassed her girl, she would do her best to protect the girl from being wronged.

The carriage reached the gate of the imperial city, and the maid who delivered the message did not speak, but only took out a dark gold sign and shook it. The guard guarding the door took two steps back and let go. Xu Qirong pondered in his heart, this fifteenth princess was probably extremely favored by Emperor Chen Qian.

Be aware of this. Xu Qirong is not envious at all, her father is more sincere to her than Emperor Chen Qiandi to the fifteenth prince.

The carriage continued on the bluestone slab for a while before stopping. The maid who came to deliver the message was not Lu Xia, nor Rachel, Xu Qirong had never seen it, and her temperament was too cold. got out of the carriage directly, raised his chin and signaled Xu Qirong to get off the carriage.

When Xu Qirong and Qiu Nong got out of the carriage, the maid waved her hand, and the man who drove the carriage drove away. Then he turned around and asked Xu Qirong: "Miss do you want to take a walk or walk over?" ”

Although Xu Qirong has never entered the palace. But he also knew that there were a lot of rules in this palace, so he had an extra heart and said to the maid: "The little girl is stupid and doesn't know the rules of the palace." Whether to take a walk or walk over. It's all up to my sister to decide. ”

The maid touched a soft nail, and she was originally unhappy, but when Xu Qirong spoke, her gentle and gentle posture was very low, so she didn't care, waved her hand, raised her foot and walked in front: "Then you can walk with me!" ”

The inside of this palace is very different from the outside. The Shen family is already very rich, and the Shen family is also willing to spend money, Xu Qirong lived in the Shen family in Yangzhou for a period of time before. The arrangement of the courtyard, the furnishings of the house, the carved beams and paintings. It's not comparable to ordinary people. Although the current dynasty emphasized agriculture and suppressed commerce, the restrictions on merchants were not as many as those in the previous dynasty, and many things that could be used by officials and eunuchs, as long as merchants could afford them, they could also use them.

But in this palace, compared to the wealth and wealth seen in the Shen family before, it is a different world. The paved road of green jade looks very warm, and I don't know what kind of place this is, it seems that the people who have walked this road should be wearing shoes made of soft satin. Thinking so, Xu Qirong looked down at the shoes of the maid leading the way in front, and sure enough, they were moon-white lotus soft satin shoes, which were more delicate than the ladies of many official eunuchs outside the palace.

The palaces passing by all the way are all sandalwood carved cornices, phoenixes are about to fly, green tiles and red walls, straight vermilion pillars, and coiling dragons are lifelike. The golden top, the red door, the ancient trees are towering, and the strange flowers are gorgeous, all of which give people a sense of solemnity and oppression. The grandeur of this palace is magnificent, and those who have not entered the palace will never be able to imagine it by imagination alone.

Xu Qirong looked at the road he had walked quietly, but he didn't dare to really look around, looking very restrained. Qiu Nong was afraid of causing trouble to his own girl, so he dared to follow the same steps, and he didn't dare to move his eyes.

Then I heard the maid say abruptly: "In the inner courtyard of this palace, there are strict hierarchies, generally only concubines of Ronghua and above from the fourth grade are qualified to ride the chariot, Su Xiaoyi Niangniang was so blessed with holy grace at the beginning, but she is not qualified to take the chariot!" ”

Xu Qirong was shocked, since there is such a rule, just now she asked her if she wanted to take a step or not, and what was she doing? If she is ignorant and chooses to take a step, I am afraid that even if she can save her life, she will have to take dozens of boards. Then I noticed that the maid said that Su Xiaoyi's mother had received holy grace at the beginning, could it be that Su Xiaoyi has fallen out of favor now?

Although she guessed like this in her heart, she couldn't ask such words, so she could only pretend not to understand the deep meaning of the maid's words and continue to follow forward.

The scenery along the way is getting better and better, there are more and more strange flowers and plants, and Xu Qirong has a guess in his heart. Then he looked well-behaved and asked, "Her Royal Highness is waiting for us in her own bedchamber?" ”

The maid glanced at Xu Qirong, and then said, "We're going to the Imperial Garden." ”

Xu Qirong sighed, and did not continue to ask. The maid suddenly paused, carefully looked at Xu Qirong and Qiu Nong, and then raised her feet again and walked forward. After half a sound, he sneered and spit out a sentence: "Your temperament is the fate of a long life." ”

No matter how stupid Xu Qirong is, he vaguely feels that something is wrong, the fifteenth princess will never send such a maid to take her into the palace because Shen Yaru married Lu Yanhang. And the fifteenth princess is not the kind of strong man who is difficult, Xu Qirong has said before that she has no interest in entering the palace, so the fifteenth princess really did not invite her to play in the palace. There is no reason to call her into the palace to talk at such a special time.

Xu Qirong pursed his lips and paid attention to it, whether it was a palace maid or an attendant along the way, her attitude towards this maid was very humble, and she would even stop what she was doing to greet her.

Xu Qirong noticed that everyone called her "Aunt Miluo". No matter how you look at it, this Aunt Miluo can't be the maid next to the fifteenth princess.

Whose person is Aunt Miluo? Who told her to enter the palace? What is the purpose?

Xu Qirong was guessing, and saw the fifteenth princess sitting in the pavilion in front, with a white jade table in front of her, jasper, gold foot bottle, jade plate, crystal plate containing various colors of preserved fruits, and a small incense burner with light smoke. And then against the surrounding scenery, it is like a painting. (To be continued......)
