Chapter 4: The First Day Is Counted
Although the moody Su Zhi left Rong Rongci alone, Rong Rongci, who came to the palace for the first time, quickly met a kind palace maid and took her to Concubine Yu's Shou'an Palace.
At that time, the person who resigned had not yet entered the Shou'an Palace, and heard the sound of the women laughing and talking from afar, and after a glance from a distance, she noticed that outside the Shou'an Palace, there was a bright figure in the flower-filled garden, and a bright red brocade robe stood among the concubines, which was very conspicuous.
Silently following behind the palace maid, Rong Rongci hooked his lips and sneered: It's only been a day since she came to Shangyin, and someone is already secretly calculating her.
She was already not far from the garden, although she had already guessed, but looking at the graceful and luxurious Concubine Yu, Rong Wangci still pinched a cold sweat in her heart. Rong Rongci, who had a calm face on his face, had already walked in front of everyone under the leadership of the palace maid, and they had already noticed the arrival of Rong Rongci, and they all wanted to see what kind of stunning face the princess of different races who could attract the regent to rob her relatives should be.
But the first thing that caught their attention was not the delicate face of the beauty, but the long red dress worn on the alien princess: it was too similar to the big red palace dress worn by Concubine Yu. In fact, the skirt worn by Rong Wangci, although the color collides with Concubine Yu, but its details, texture embroidery and gold thread decoration are really worlds apart, just because the color is equally flamboyant and eye-catching, so once someone with a heart moves a few words, she will inevitably end up with a big disrespectful charge.
"Yo, this princess from Nanrong is different, this eye for picking clothes is very compatible with the concubine......"
Sure enough, someone had already spoken in a weird way.
When Concubine Yu heard this, her already somewhat unhappy face became even more ugly at this time, but Rong Rongci didn't seem to hear what the man said, she just saluted according to the rules, and when she stood up again, she said softly: "The concubine thinks that the bride wearing a red dress is the rule of Shangyin women, and she is fortunate to be compared with the concubine by the mother, but the concubine is unwell today, and she has a rash on her face, and she is really rushed in front of the concubine." ”
After Rong Elegy finished speaking, he raised his face, and he didn't know when a rash appeared on his originally delicate face.
When everyone saw it, they were taken aback, those rashes grew on their faces, and they suddenly saw that they were indeed a little scary, and such a face stood around Concubine Yu, which really set off the concubine's complexion, and she was getting a little younger.
There is a good saying, it's not terrible to hit the shirt, who is ugly and who is embarrassed, and at the moment, although Concubine Yu is no longer young, she is not yet forty, and her face has always been carefully maintained.
Concubine Yu, who was originally embarrassed, looked back to normal at this time, and several concubines compared the two at the moment, and after flattering and praising one after another, Concubine Yu was even happier than before she resigned.
At this time, Rong Wangci hurriedly knelt down and pleaded guilty: "The concubine has married into Shangyin, but she doesn't know much about Shangyin's rules, and she collided with the concubine today, and asked the concubine to forgive her sins." ”
"Get up." Concubine Yu's voice was kind: "You came from afar, because the mourning family was not thoughtful, and you didn't send someone to tell you about Shangyin's human feelings, you are not at fault, and you don't have to blame yourself." ”
"Concubine Xie is elegant, Concubine Xie has prepared a generous gift for the newlywed concubine."
Concubine Yu smiled and nodded, as if she was very satisfied with the modesty and deference of the princess regent, and the concubines immediately saw what Concubine Yu meant, and they all smiled at Rong Elegy, and some offered to send some elixir to help her cure the rash on her face.
Rong was gentle and polite, thanked them one by one, and everyone said a few more words, because Concubine Yu wanted lunch, so they all dispersed. Before leaving, Concubine Yu specially called someone to give Rong Bangci a small box, saying that the ointment in it was very effective in treating the rash caused by water and soil adaptation, and Rong Rongci thanked him with a big gift, and then left under the guidance of the palace maid.
The palace maid led Rong Bang to stop not far from Xuanyi Gate, and then came to the guards and led Rong Wan out of the palace.
The carriage of the Regent's Mansion was already waiting outside the palace gate, and before Rong Wangci got into the carriage, he heard the groom exclaim: "Princess! What happened to your face?! ”
Rong Wangci was so frightened that he staggered, took two steps back before standing firmly, and glanced at the horseman: "It's okay, it's just that the water and soil are not adapted." ”
"No, no, no, I have to tell our prince immediately!"
The groom pulled his legs and wanted to run away as he spoke, but Rong Wangci hurriedly stopped him: "Eh! Don't go! If you leave me here alone, will I drive the horse back by myself? Besides, you little groom, the regent can see you if you want? ”
The groom laughed: "Princess, I'm not a groom, I'm the personal guard of our prince." ”
Rong Wangci frowned and shook his head: "No, I've seen the prince's guards, and it's not you by your side." ”
The kid who claimed to be the regent of the guard also frowned and thought about it, and immediately laughed again: "Oh, the princess can see that it is Xi Zhu, I am Yue Xiu, and the two of us are the most trusted guards of our prince." ”
Rong Wangci recalled a little, and vaguely remembered that the guard she had seen was indeed called Xi Zhu, so she calmed down: "Even if you can see the prince, you can't just throw me, the princess of your family, here, right?" ”
Yue Xiu thought about it and felt that it made sense, so he nodded: "Hey, when the prince comes back in a while, I have to feel sorry for you again......"
Rong Wangci was getting into the carriage, and when she heard Yue Xiu's words, she asked through the curtain: "I saw that you ran back just now, I thought that the prince had already left the palace, what, is he still inside?" ”
"No, the prince has already come out."
"Then what is he going to do when he comes back later?"
"Pick you up!"
Rong Rongci didn't answer. She didn't believe that Su Zhi left alone in a hurry, and he was able to pull down his face and come back to pick her up, such a face-losing thing, did the dignified regent do it?
However, Su Zhi really did it, but Su Zhi did not leave in a hurry as Rong Zhi thought.
When Su Zhi carried the food box into the carriage, Rong Wangci looked at him as if he had seen a ghost in the blue sky.
"Lord Wang..."
"Hungry, huh? It was past lunchtime, so I went to buy some food to fill my stomach first. ”
Rong Zhi took the food handed to her by Su Zhi and ate it without saying a word.
