Volume 1 Wusun Chapter 72 The Return of the Old Man (1)
When night fell, the stars were like dust, and in this quiet night, no one noticed that a bird with a whole body of black and green came out of the palace, crossed the red valley, and fell into the courtyard of a family.
A slender hand that seemed to have condensed the snow and frost happened to stick out of the window, allowing the bird to close its wings and stop at her fingertips.
Yue Youlan gently took off the letter tube between the feet of the letter bird, and then released the bird.
From the bottom to the top slowly unfolded, a few crooked and disorganized words first came into view, the blue bird biography, should have been extremely affectionate and restrictive, who knew that a closer look, but made people cry and laugh, it turned out that this piece of paper was recorded neither full of lovesick earnest words, but also not sincere words of warm greetings, word by word recorded but the size of the recent palace events, up to the prince and lost his temper and knocked over a few jars of cold pool incense, down to the palace peach tree budding, one by one everything is recorded in great detail, made Yue Youlan suddenly give birth to the illusion that the two of them were actually secretly communicating and passing on information. It wasn't until I read the last line that my heartstrings moved slightly, because the inscription read, "My wife".
My wife, my wife. She chewed these two words over and over again, and she couldn't help but feel hot and sweet.
Her thoughts went back to more than half a month ago, just as they were on their way back to Akaya with the Divine Wood Sculpture, she sat on the horse with her sleeves folded and a shy face, listening to the heroic and sturdy man under the horse awkwardly dissecting her heart.
"Month... Lan'er, I'll send you home this time, you should wait patiently for a while, and when I have unloaded all the burdens on my body, I will find a suitable time to propose to Captain Yue, okay? ”
"Okay, I'll wait. You can just go with confidence. ”
Thinking of this, while warming his heart, a wisp of sorrow also hung on his eyebrows, and asked Feng that she could be trusted, but what about her father? Would he agree to the marriage he had made in private?
That's it, I don't want to think so much, Yue Youlan made up her mind, since her body and heart have been given to that person, then there is no reason to retreat, even if there are many difficulties and obstacles on the road ahead, she is not afraid.
"Sister, haven't you stopped so late?"
At this moment, a sharp female voice suddenly pulled Yue Youlan back to reality, and she subconsciously withdrew the note in her hand into her sleeve without a trace, and then turned around, and her face quickly returned to coldness.
"Qianqing, you're back, can you get something from today?"
Yue Qianqing is dressed very gorgeously today, wearing a bright and eye-catching violet embroidered skirt, tied with a silver-edged satin belt, which looks quite flamboyant. She has also passed the age of fifteen to get married, so under the Zhang Luo of the Minhan clan, she has not been idle for a while, and has been wandering around the circle of major celebrities and nobles in Wangcheng, just waiting to catch a golden beetle son-in-law to shine on the lintel.
But I don't know what the reason is, Yue Qianqing's face is not very good-looking at this moment, she casually fiddled with the coral bracelet on her wrist, pouted and said, "That's it, it's just a group of gentlemen, and it's worthy of me, and it's a shame for the matchmaker to brag about it!" ”
Among the three sisters, the second child has the highest spirit, even if the Yue family is defeated and the proud daughter of a country once falls to the bottom, her Yue Qianqing's arrogance and pride as Wang Ji are still unchanged, and asking her to commit herself to marrying and compromise reality is even more uncomfortable than killing her.
Yue Youlan is familiar with her heart, and she is helpless, so she has to take out the bearing of the eldest daughter, and try to comfort, "Qianqing, don't think like this, now is not the same as before, and it is a great luck that our family can escape from Blue City safely, as for those things that are just outside the body, just as it is an old dream that disappears, besides, you look good, and your mother is powerful, even if you lack the blessing of that heavy identity, you will definitely help you find a wishful husband in the people, our daughter's family is no better than men, If you have to make meritorious contributions, you can only marry a person with peace of mind, teach your husband and children, and be free of illness and disaster for a lifetime, which is already a great blessing. ”
"I don't want to, I Yue Qianqing either don't marry, if I want to marry, I have to marry the most noble man in the world, if I want to guard the husband and work recklessly all my life, I am willing... If you become a monk, you will not be embarrassed, besides, this time is different from the past, eldest sister-" Yue Qianqing's words suddenly turned, and a touch of color crossed her eyes.
"What?" Yue Youlan didn't realize it for a while.
Only then did Yue Qianqing tell her what she had seen and heard in the past few days.
It turned out that some time ago, the epidemic of Jiaoda that caused panic in the hearts of people has been calmed down, and the superintendent of the imperial horse, Yu Yuekuma Yao, is also one of the heroes, thanks to his clever plan to dedicate in public on the Golden Palace - "Although the Jiaoda plague is fierce, it is a pity to abandon it, it is to smoke it with fire, and then send a special person to train a new horse to put it, and it will be nationalized, isn't it beautiful." Kun Mo immediately gladly adopted it, and now that it has been completed, it is natural to reward the meritorious deeds and reward the meritorious heroes.
"Tomorrow is the celebration banquet, at that time, Daddy will add an official to the knighthood, and under the rising tide, the value of our sisters will naturally skyrocket, so I begged Daddy to bring our sisters when he goes to the palace banquet tomorrow, and almost all the young talents of Tianwu Palace will attend.
"Fire, Jiaoda?" Yue Qianqing said so much, only these words shocked Yue Youlan's heart.
"yes."
"So, so ......I see," Moon Blue muttered.
Yue Qianqing has been busy choosing a son-in-law these days, and she rarely knows the connection at home, so she opened her mouth for a while, "Speaking of which, I have to thank Jiaoda for coming out of this matter, otherwise how could we have the day when our Yue family came out so soon." Eldest sister, don't say that I don't miss you, sister, I even have prepared the clothes for our banquet tomorrow for you, it is a beautiful jade robe, it is the most beautiful to wear in spring, and ......"
"No need," Yue Youlan Xiu's eyebrows twisted, and her face changed, "I won't go, this celebration banquet with countless people's bones, even if I reluctantly go, I can't swallow it." ”
After saying that, she brushed her sleeves away, Yue Qianqing looked at her departing back, her face was also green, and she spat on the ground.
"Hmph, I really don't know the hearts of good people, if you don't go, I'll go!"
--------------------------------------
The next day, Tianwu Palace really held a feast and invited a group of celebrities to watch the ceremony, which was very lively.
Yue Qianxin also came to this banquet early, and directly followed the queen into the top seat, which is strange to say, and I don't know what day today made the always lazy queen get up so early to change her clothes and dress, and called her to come to the banquet for the first time, which was really flattering.
After being bored, Yue Qianxin began to observe the silk Yuanhuan next to him, perhaps because of the grand scene attended, Bao Yuanhuan combed the peony hibiscus bun today, and wore the Chaoyang Five Phoenix Yingluo circle, a crystal clear drop-shaped gem is falling on the smooth forehead, and the eyebrows fly into the sideburns, showing more aura, making the whole person solemn and beautiful, quite the style of the mother of the country.
"Shallow heart," the queen was now reclining behind the long gauze curtain, her beautiful eyes flowing, and a pair of narrow and deep blue eyes poked straight out.
"The courtiers are here." Yue Qianxin didn't dare to look directly, and lowered her eyebrows and lowered her head in response.
"Why are you so restrained?" The queen burst out laughing, and her grace stretched her lips and teeth, "This palace asked you to come over, but it wasn't for the sake of using you as a slave, if you are bored, you can go down and play games by yourself, and this palace will be accompanied by white bamboo." ”
Bai Zhu had been standing quietly on the side peeling the newly grown grapes for the queen, and when he heard this, he paused and did not respond.
"Thank you for your love, but the courtiers don't find it boring, and the courtiers are willing to accompany the mother."
Yue Qianxin felt bored, no young man at any young age would like this kind of occasion, there are many rules and play, she is naturally no exception, but compared to this dispensable little bit of freedom, what she needs more is stability and stability, after all, she is not a child, she really can't take the risk of angering the queen to covet comfort for a while, she can still distinguish a full meal, not to mention that although this silk Yuanhuan seems to be gentle and good-looking, But Yue Qianxin always felt that this person had some unfathomable meaning in it, she didn't believe that the woman who could stand out from the many palace concubines and stand for many years would be a good stubble that was indisputable with the world, wouldn't it be embarrassing if she would be wrong for a while?
"Okay, what's polite with this palace, it's all your own family, even if you don't want to do this, you can't let the prince wait too hard, right?" I didn't expect the queen to speak again, it was such a "naked" hint.
Own family? Yue Qianxin reacted that her face was already half red, and she realized the reason why the queen brought herself to the palace, she should have thought of it a long time ago, she was a woman, powerless, powerless, and helpless, in addition to being a little related to Fuqiuao, what was so special about it that deserved the frequent attention of the high-ranking queen, I think it was the drunkard's intention not to drink.
It's just that what does she mean by this, could it be that she really wants to match herself and her son, and keeping herself by her side is just to check for Fuqiuao?
"Good boy, go!" The queen waved her hand softly, as gently as she was, like a loving mother.
Seeing this, Yue Qianxin no longer shirked, respectfully bowed to the queen and quietly went down.
The banquet was held outdoors, and it was the early spring season of spring and Jingming, which was the most suitable time to sit under the warm sun and bask in the sun and taste fragrant tea, so the venue was particularly poetic and picturesque. The transplanted trees and peach blossoms have already budded, showing the beauty of budding, leaving a large gap in the center to spread a large red carpet, and the wine, tea, melon and fruit desserts are placed around early for guests to take directly.
However, Yue Qianxin didn't have the appetite to touch those for the time being, she looked around and seemed to be looking for someone, but although there were many guests, none of them were what she was looking for.
Just as she hung her head in frustration, she heard a commotion at the end of the crowd, and a group of people came to her side.
