Chapter 516: Preambush
In front of the gate of the palace house, the door is like a city; In the face of the guests who kept coming to congratulate them, the people in the palace were all in good spirits and performed their duties according to the prior arrangements.
As soon as he sent away the steward of the three counties of Junzhou to congratulate the head of the family, Xiao Yi didn't have time to wipe the fine sweat on his forehead, and saw a luxuriously decorated carriage parked in front of the gate of the palace.
Rigong Yihan's wedding, I want to come to Beijing many dignitaries and nobles to come to the house to watch the ceremony, Xiao Yi was originally a careful person, and now he is ordered to receive guests here, so he naturally does not dare to be a little lazy. Seeing that the people in the carriage walked down at this time, Xiao Yi also hurriedly greeted him and bowed down to greet the visitors.
"Your guests are not welcome, forgive me, forgive me."
After saluting, Xiao Yi raised his head and looked at the visitor in front of him, the man was tied with a jade belt, wearing a ring on his body, and a flowing fairy robe with blue and white clouds lined this person's spirits, and his face was handsome and extraordinary. At this time, in the face of Xiao Yi's greeting, the man's face was not half moved, and he took a step forward proudly, silently looking at the imperial gold plaque on the gate of the palace, and his eyes were not angry and arrogant; In addition, the two guards with solemn faces around him stood left and right, hanging their heads and waiting for orders, which made it even more extravagant.
pondered in his heart, presumably the identity of the man in front of him was either rich or noble, and his awe was even more than before.
"Dare to ask how the son should be respected?"
The light in his eyes flickered slightly, and a faint smile rose between the corners of the man's mouth, and he answered Xiao Yi's question calmly and forcefully.
"My surname is Zhao, a single name and a pure character, and I am a relative in the Pingyang Palace."
His face shook suddenly, and Xiao Yi naturally weighed the weight of the man's words. The people of the heavenly family are really majestic and very incomparable.
"It turns out that the prince is a relative of Prince Gong's house, and the little one is disrespectful. Disrespectful! It is rare for Zhao Gongzi to appreciate his face and come to the wedding banquet of the head of the family, and invite the people inside to sit down for tea and take a break. ”
This "Zhao Chun", who claimed to be a relative of Prince Gong, didn't make much difficulty, smiled elegantly, and nodded and replied.
"It's okay, on Gong Jialang's big day, you have to be happy to drink."
"Zhao Gongzi is joking. The head of the family had already invited the troupe and juggling troupe in the inner courtyard to relieve the boredom of the guests. Childe can listen to the play while tasting wine, and you can also enjoy the autumn scenery in the lower garden by the way. Come and lead the guests to the 'Qingyin Pavilion'. Good students entertained. ”
As he spoke, Xiao Yi called a servant in a loud voice.
"The head of your family has a heart."
With a faint smile, this "Zhao Chun", who was about to enter the mansion, seemed to remember something, and suddenly stopped. Asked Xiao Yi sideways.
"Has Luo Da Cai arrived?"
"Back to Gongzi's words. Mr. Luo and his wife went to the 'Butterfly Medical Hall' with the head of the family to greet their relatives, and they must have arrived soon. ”
"Ma'am? Which lady, the beloved daughter of General Wang Lin, Wang Qingge?! ”
Although this "Zhao Chun" question was a little strange, Xiao Yi didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it after thinking about it. As a powerful man in Beijing, it is not unusual for him to know the talented Luo Zhiqiu, so he replied without much thought.
"It's not the eldest lady of the Luo family, it's the concubine 'Mrs. Yu' of Gongzi Luo."
I don't think there's anything wrong with the words. But in the blink of an eye, the harmony on the face of "Zhao Chun" disappeared. Gloomy and gloomy.
Xiao Yi looked at it suspiciously, but he didn't dare to ask; After waiting for a long time, I heard the man ask again.
"Can King Rong and Princess Reconciliation come to the house?"
"It's already here, and the two nobles just happened to be drinking tea and watching a play in the 'Qingyin Pavilion'. Zhao Gongzi, do you need the little one to pass on the word to Prince Rong and the princess? ”
"There's no need. It is better to meet naturally when it is time to meet, so as not to cause any embarrassment. ”
Embarrassed?! Before Xiao Yi could figure out the mystery in his words, this "Zhao Chun" called the guide and took the guards and strode towards the palace
The "Qingyin Pavilion" arranged by Xiao Yi not only has excellent scenery on all sides, but also has an excellent view, and you can clearly see the whole process of the bride entering the door; Nowadays, the palace is overcrowded, and there are guests waiting to watch the ceremony, so such a place is naturally hard to find.
There are only six pavilions in the "Qingyin Pavilion", one is reserved for the current Queen Mother, one is reserved for King Rong and Princess Rong, and the remaining four rooms depend on the situation; At this time, "Zhao Chun" was able to occupy one, which shows that Xiao Yi attaches great importance to him in this arrangement.
Identity determines treatment, and in this worldly world full of human feelings, it is sometimes understandable.
And "Zhao Chun" naturally has a reason to afford such a generous treatment.
While holding the jade cup and slowly sipping the wine, while looking intently at the movement in front of the main gate of the palace family in the distance, the guards who had returned from the investigation of the "Qingyin Pavilion" just now knelt in front of "Zhao Chun" and returned.
"Your Majesty, my subordinates have already investigated the 'Qingyin Pavilion' four times, and there is nothing unusual."
A respectful "emperor" suddenly exposed the true identity of this humble son "Zhao Chun".
Lifting the jade cup again and drinking a little wine from the cup, Zhao Yan asked lightly.
"Where are King Xie and Rong at this time?"
"The princess is listening to the play and drinking tea in the Accord at the corner of the corridor at this time. Your Majesty, do you need your subordinates to summon you? ”
"No need."
Zhao Yan answered without thinking, and his heart was still bright. This time he went out of the palace in simple clothes, his purpose was not to join in the fun, but to meet the person who had been thinking about him for many years.
"If I appear in front of that girl at this time, I may cause some kind of trouble. Now outside the palace, I also want that girl to be less bound by the complicated gifts in the palace and have more fun. ”
The words are a father's tolerance for his daughter, but this is only a superficial meaning. At a deeper level, Zhao Yan didn't want to make a branch at this time and arouse the suspicion of Zhao Zhenyuan and others early.
This is a meeting after many years of separation, and it is also a game that tests people's hearts, and Zhao Yan himself does not know how the situation will develop.
Between deception and expectation, there is an incompatible opposition and contradiction. Just as all insiders don't want Zhao Yan to know about Huo Xiaoyu's existence. He also didn't want to be deceived by such vigor and confusion, and retreated to the second thing to judge the deception behind his back.
Zhao Yan was immersed in a dilemma, and suddenly there was a crisp sound of firecrackers in the distance, and suddenly the guests scattered everywhere rushed towards the gate of the palace like ants gathered together.
There was a slight startle in his eyes, and Zhao Yan immediately realized: It seems that the team to welcome the relatives has arrived.
"Ah Heng, slow down, slow down!"
"Can't be slow! If it's slow, you won't be able to grab a good spot! ”
Jumping on the noise in the distance, echoing as soon as it fell, a cloud of purple and red palace clothes instantly turned into a flash of light, and hurriedly flew past Zhao Yan's eyes, and he also subconsciously looked at the pavilion and took a step back.
One side is above, one side is below, and they are all worried about the movement in front of the palace gate in their hearts, but the people they are worried about are different. (To be continued......)
