Chapter 533: The Great Qing Gate
However, Ling Ruo did not walk in with Yinzhen, but stopped a step away from the palace gate, looking at Yinzhen's surprised gaze, she smiled and said: "The emperor forgot, this is the Great Qing Gate, and concubines are not allowed to enter." After that, she was about to go to the side door, but she didn't want Yinzhen to hold her hand tightly, so she turned around, only to see Yinzhen looking at her with heavy eyes, and said word by word: "Tonight, I want to walk in with you, right here." β
Ling Ruo knew very well what it meant to walk in from the main gate, except for the emperor here, in the harem, only the queen could go once when she got married, and the current queen, because Yinzhen was married when she was the elder brother, did not walk through the Daqing Gate, which means that among all the concubines in Yinzhen, no one has ever enjoyed the honor of entering through the Daqing Gate.
Now, Yinzhen wants her to enter through the Daqing Gate together, which is an incomprehensible favor and exception, which is enough to prove Ling Ruo's status in Yinzhen's heart.
Feeling the warmth and firmness of her fingertips, Ling Ruo was deeply moved in her eyes, but after being moved, she shook her head and said, "The concubine is just a concubine, and she is not qualified to go through this big Qing gate." β
If she enters through this Daqing Gate tonight, it will inevitably cause an uproar in the harem. She would not be naΓ―ve to think that there would be no shortage of people in this place at this time, and it would not reach the ears of those masters, and the palace has always been the most ear-and-eye. When the time comes, it's time for those people to take advantage of the opportunity to make trouble again.
"I say you're qualified, and you're qualified." Yin Zhen not only didn't let go, but tightened it a little tighter, and the feeling of finding seeds that he had regained made him cherish when Ling Ruo was by his side, although she was not his queen, but she was someone he cherished very much.
Seeing that Ling Ruo was still refusing, Yin Zhen had already said in an unquestionable tone: "Go in with me." β
Ling Ruo looked at him for a long time, and finally turned into a helpless smile, it was really not easy to make Yinzhen change his mind, just let him be. Returning to the palace with a sinful body is enough to attract attention, and I don't care about one more thing.
Sixi and the others, who were kneeling on the ground, were already trembling with excitement when they heard Yinzhen's words, Daqingmen, Yongzheng had never had a concubine walk through Daqingmen, and tonight it was finally going to make an exception.
"Quick, go and light all the palace lamps and welcome the emperor and Concubine Xi back to the palace." Sixi was excited, but he still remembered something, and urged Xiao Lizi and them to hurry up and light the lamp.
"Wow!" Xiao Lizi agreed, and quickly led people to run, and after a while, there were silk soft lights that lit up like flowing water, and they have been shining into the depths of the harem since the beginning of the Great Qing Gate, like a sea of stars, endless.
At the same time, Xiao Lizi and others who lit the lamp knelt on both sides and kowtowed together: "The minions welcome the emperor and Concubine Xi back to the palace, long live the emperor, long live long live; Concubine Xi Niangniang Chitose Chitose Chitose! β
Their voices sounded particularly loud in this quiet night, lingering for a long time over the Forbidden City in the deep palace, startling the crows perched on the top of the palace, flapping their wings and hovering in mid-air.
In this continuous mountain call, Ling Ruo took a deep breath, stepped through the Daqing Gate with Yinzhen raised her feet, and officially returned to the palace, from now on, she is no longer a woman surnamed Ling outside the palace, but the concubine of Emperor Yongzheng in the Forbidden City - Niu Hulu Ling Ruo!
Sixi knelt behind him and was excited and sentimental, the emperor's treatment of Concubine Xi's mother is good, others may not know, but he, the personal eunuch, is in his eyes one by one. I still remember when I was in Wutai Mountain, the emperor remembered the flowers on the other side that Concubine Xi had said before, and he worked tirelessly to check this kind of flower that may not exist in the world at all, fortunately, in the end, he brought Concubine Xi back, otherwise the emperor would definitely be sad.
After Sixi wiped the tears that accidentally flowed out of his eyes, he got up and prepared to enter the palace with Liu Hu and them from the door, but saw a thin figure probing his head and preparing to follow up, and when he looked at it, it was the little beggar who came back with them, so he hurriedly grabbed it, "Where do you want to go?" β
The little beggar glanced at him like an idiot, and said confidently: "Of course I went in with them, where else can I go, but the mother promised to take me in before." Speaking of this, he sighed again and said: "Having said that, I wonder if I am dreaming, one of them is the emperor and the other is the mother, it's incredible, but just now I pinched myself, it hurts, it shouldn't be a dream." β
Looking at those sparkling eyes, Sixi smiled angrily, pointed to the magnificent and gorgeous palace and said, "Since you know that this is the palace, you dare to enter it with such a big thorn." Tell you, this is the Daqing Gate, only the emperor can enter, you, at most, you can only go to the next door. β
"Knock the door?" The little beggar heard this word for the first time, scratching his head obviously not understanding, but it didn't matter, as long as he could get in, just when he was about to follow Liu Hu and them to the door, one hand was in front of him again, it was still Sixi, and then he said a little unhappily: "Father-in-law, is there anything else?" β
Sixi glanced at the little beggar up and down, and said with some schadenfreude: "Aren't you going to enter the palace like this?" Our family tells you that in addition to the emperor, there are only two kinds of people who can enter the palace: one is a woman, and the other is a eunuch like our family. Although you are a little thinner, you are also a man, do you want to be like our family and get into the palace with a knife? Without waiting for the little beggar to speak, he threw out a bag of silver from his sleeve and said: "Come on, even if you want to enter the palace, Niangniang will not agree, she has already instructed our family before, and let you leave when you get to the palace gate, oh, these silver are enough for you to do some small business, and it can be regarded as the fate of acquaintance, so you can do it yourself in the future." Speaking of this, he seemed to be a little emotional, and looked at him and said: "Boy, it is your blessing to be able to not purify your body, like our family at that time, there was no choice at all, the family sent it in, and received the money, how could the knife not escape." β
Thinking of the old things more than ten years ago, Sixi couldn't help but sigh for a while, and then shook his head as if he was a little self-deprecating: "Our family is good to tell you what to do here, but I am confused." Come on, take the silver and hurry away, don't stand in the way here. β
The little beggar glanced at the heavy bag of silver on the ground with a little fiery eyes, swallowed his saliva and forcibly resisted the urge to pick it up, and quickly caught up with Sixi who was heading towards the door, "Slow, slow." β
Sixi looked at the little beggar who was blocking the way with some displeasure, "What's the matter, you really want to go in and be stabbed?" "The emperor has been in for a while, and he, the personal eunuch, is always hanging outside the palace and not going in to serve, what's the matter.
"You said that in addition to eunuchs, there are also women who can enter the palace, right?" The little beggar stared at Sixi a little slyly, and those eyes were particularly bright at this moment.
