Chapter 16: Goodbye Prince
"Slave and maid, thank you Emperor Qingluo for saving her life, thank you Emperor Qingluo, slave and maid are willing to be a cow and a horse to repay Emperor Ji!" The two palace maids knelt on the ground and thanked Shi Qingqing.
When Mama saw it, she got up to help, "The emperor can save you once, but he can't save you twice, chewing the root of the master's tongue behind his back is a taboo in the palace, if you don't even know this taboo, today I will be the emperor of Qingluo who saved you." ”
The two palace maids endured the pain in their bodies, gritted their teeth and said, "Thank you for your teachings, the slave knows her mistakes!" ”
Mama nodded faintly, "Stand down!" ”
The two palace maids hurriedly answered yes and retreated.
Shi Qingqing couldn't help but re-examine Mama Lu, just now... You said that to yourself, right?
"Qing'er, thank you for your teachings!"
Shi Qingqing half-squatted and bowed.
Mama Lu's face that had not changed for a hundred years finally moved, and she was startled, and hurriedly got up to help, "Emperor Ji must not torture the old slave, what kind of teachings do you say, Emperor Ji please get up quickly!" ”
Shi Qingqing let Mama Lu help him up, and his eyes looked directly into Mama Fu's eyes, but what he saw was only a light cloud, as if Fang Cai's qiē did not exist, and there was no loosening because he saw the inhuman side of Emperor Huayu.
Shi Qingqing smiled slightly, and no longer explored, "Please continue to lead the way!" ”
"Hey, Emperor Ji, please!"
Shi Qingqing looked sideways at Xi'er, and Xi'er immediately understood, and hurriedly followed.
Jiaofang Palace
The simplicity of the hall surprised Shi Qingqing, except that the walls were made of powder made from the flowers of the pepper tree.
The rest of the column walls are engraved with cloud and phoenix patterns. The vermilion lacquer columns are lined up, supporting all the important corners of the hall, the ground is as clean as a mirror, and only the curtain of the Su yarn hangs quietly at one end in the emptiness, and there is no life.
Shi Qingqing condensed his breath and lifted his feet, and followed behind Mama Lu to walk towards Fengluan Seat step by step.
Before he got close, a scent of Suhe came to his face, accompanied by the queen's gentle watery voice, "Qing'er, didn't you tell you to rest yesterday." Why did it come so early? Hurry up, give me a seat! ”
Shi Qingqing thanked him unhurriedly, and officially bowed to the queen, "Qing'er knocks to see the queen mother." The queen mother is blessed and prolonged! ”
"Hurry, hurry, hurry. Get up. You kid is so filial! ”
After speaking, the grandmother beside the queen stepped forward to personally help Shi Qingqing up, with a kind face. "Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, except for the seven princes who have come, the other princes are still coming, and it is estimated that this hour will have to wait until the next dynasty, Emperor Qingluo really has a heart!"
Shi Qingqing smiled faintly and sat down with Mama's hand.
Seeing this, the queen instructed again: "Go, bring my pair of earrings made of Dongzhu to Qing'er, Qing'er is just right to wear!" ”
When Shi Qingqing heard this, she couldn't help but think, I wonder if the queen would take back the pair of earrings when she knew that she had just had a big fight with her daughter?
"Queen, Emperor Qingluo is not suitable to wear such valuables when she is young, Dongzhu has a magnificent color and elegant temperament, which is the most consistent with the identity of the queen's mother, and I hope that the queen's mother will take back her life." Mama Fu bowed down and stood aside and spoke lightly, stopping Mama who was about to go to the inner hall to get earrings.
When the queen saw that it was the emperor's side, she flashed a trace of surprise, and then resumed as usual, and said: "What the queen said is that the palace is not thoughtful, change the Donghua painted porcelain vase, the plum blossoms in your father's yard should bloom just right, and it is just right for flower arrangement!" ”
"Yes, thank you, Queen Mother!" Shi Qingqing didn't shirk, chatted casually with the queen, and then prepared to leave.
Suddenly, a high-pitched scream came, and the eunuch outside reported loudly: "The crown prince and the flower feather emperor have arrived!" ”
Shi Qingqing suddenly chuckled in his heart, but he still bumped into it.
The eunuch's voice fell, and Hua Yu's arrogant voice came, "Queen Mother, where is that slut in Qingluo?" ”
When the queen heard this, she reprimanded: "Presumptuous! ”
Hua Yu was still unconvinced, "Queen Mother, you don't know that slut ...... just now"
Behind Hua Yu was the prince who came with a smile on his hand, and when he saw Hua Yu's gaffe, he hurriedly said: "This is Sister Qingluo, I didn't have a chance to meet yesterday, I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence today!" ”
Shi Qingqing didn't answer, but only led Xi'er and his party to salute, "Participate in the prince, the prince is blessed!" ”
The prince held the brocade silk around his waist and shook it, and he was graceful.
Seeing that the teacher's eyebrows were faint, he comforted him a few words, don't worry about Huayu, and then turned to the queen and said: "Erchen pays an early birthday to the queen mother, and wishes the queen mother a blessing to the world!" ”
The queen immediately smiled, "It's good that you have you!" At the end, he glared at Hua Yu on the side, "What are you doing nonsense, the emperor also banned your feet yesterday, why did you come out!" ”
Hua Yu was very embarrassed when her mother brought up such ugly things in public, and she couldn't help but say with a slight anger: "Queen mother ......"
Seeing this, Shi Qingqing hurriedly stepped forward and bowed awe-inspiringly, "Queen Mother, what the prince said is right, today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, it is a matter of course for Sister Hua to come to the queen mother to pay New Year's greetings, and the father's house is benevolent and will not be blamed, Qing'er remembers that there is still an eldest lady in the house to explain trivial matters, please let Qing'er retire first!" Shi Qingqing thought to herself, I said it so clearly, I'll go, your family will share the family, and I won't say it, if the queen doesn't let people go, she won't be able to say it!
Sure enough, when the queen heard this, she said softly: "In this case, I will let Mama Chen send you out, the road outside is slippery, but you have to be careful!" ”
Hua Yu seemed to be very unwilling to let Shi Qingqing go, her eyes wanted to spew fire, but she was stopped by the queen with her eyes, and she didn't dare to step forward again.
Shi Qingqing's eyes did not squint, and he didn't seem to pay much attention to this qiē undercurrent, "Queen Mother, don't be so troublesome......
Halfway through his words, the prince interrupted, "I happen to have something to do and need to return to my father, and I have been delayed a lot of time here in the queen mother, I should also go, Qing'er will let me send it!" ”
Shi Qingqing didn't have time to refuse, and the prince had already said goodbye to the queen and retreated straight to the outside of the palace to wait.
Shi Qingqing asked the prince to wait for him, hurriedly bowed, and walked out of the palace gate.
"Let's go!" When the prince saw Shi Qingqing come out, his expression was natural, which made Shi Qingqing in a trance for a while, could it be that he and Shi Qingqing had known each other for a long time?
As soon as this idea came out, it was denied by Shi Qingqing, where would Shi Qingqing know such a nobleman.
"I didn't think you'd grown so big! It's almost time to go, right? The prince's tone was familiar, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and he looked at Shi Qingqing with warmth.
Shi Qingqing sighed again in his heart, shouldn't he really know each other? "Yes, it's twelve!"
When the prince saw Shi Qingqing, who had just arrived at his waist, he couldn't help but reach out and touch her hair, which was very soft, and he didn't pay attention, as if he had been touching it for a little longer......
Seeing Shi Qingqing's black line expression, the prince had no choice but to cough dryly, slightly relieved a little embarrassment, and withdrew his hand.
For a moment, neither of them said anything more.
Mama Lu is an old man in the palace, seeing this, she couldn't help but pull Xi'er to deliberately slow down and keep a distance from Shi Qingqing.
It was about the realization that there was something wrong with his move, and the prince laughed dryly, and then said: "I didn't expect time to pass so quickly, in the blink of an eye, you are already twelve, and you want to ...... back then."
Hearing this, Shi Qingqing's heart sank, it's over, the prince came out early, wouldn't it be to catch up with her, right? It's over, it's over.
"I think back then, when I saw you, you weren't satisfied with the moon!" Whew, Shi Qingqing lived, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help blaming the prince for panting for his words, seeing that the prince was still looking at himself with a smile, he had to accompany the smiling face, "Hehehe...... yes, I don't even remember....hehe! ”
The prince was amused by Shi Qingqing, and couldn't help but want to reach out and touch Shi Qingqing's hair, as soon as he raised his hand, he saw Shi Qingqing's eyes staring at him, so he had to change his direction and turn to the back.
"If you can remember, that's amazing!"
Shi Qingqing reacted and smiled, "It seems like this... Hehe! ”
The two laughed a few more words, and the prince stopped and said, "Okay, I can only send you here, I haven't appeared yet, my father should be punished again, see you another day!" ”
"Mm-hmm, see you another day!" Shi Qingqing's head nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and he hurriedly waved his hand to send the prince away.
When the prince saw it, he couldn't help but shake his head and leave with a smile.
Whew~ Finally gone!
Shi Qingqing saw that the little eunuchs behind him followed, and gradually moved away, so he was really relieved! (To be continued......)
