Chapter 37: Entering the Temple

It is very much in line with the taste of today's saints.

"Niangniang might as well come here, the sedan chair is already waiting outside."

Gonggong Qin made a hunched "please-" movement, and guided Xuan Zhige with a smile.

"There is Lao Qin's father-in-law."

Xuan Zhige bowed slightly, holding a little bit of the shelf that everyone should have, and walked forward nervously.

"Third Prince, ...... this?"

When Gonggong Qin saw that he was about to follow Xuan Zhige, he was a little puzzled for a while, and it was difficult to stop him, so he had to ask with a smile on his face.

"Oh. Father-in-law Qin didn't know, it was the first time for the insider to enter the palace, and the king was afraid that she would make a mistake, and the emperor's father-in-law would not be able to explain, so he accompanied him. I don't know if my father-in-law thinks something is inappropriate? ”

Baili Jingchen smiled slightly, and said in four or two.

When he said this, he reminded Gonggong Qin, the identity of the young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion who was born in the countryside, and when he thought that he might anger Long Yan, he had more eyes and hurriedly said: "It's all inappropriate!" Or the third prince is thoughtful. ”

"Then, father-in-law, please."

Baili said with a smile.

Walk through the corridor, cross the rockery, and walk through the vestibule.

Soon several people arrived at the palace, only to see that the two sedan chairs were ready at the door.

Xuan Zhige just wanted to enter the sedan chair, but was gently pulled by Baili Jingchen and turned around.

"Zhige, your neckline is messed up. Come, this king will take care of you. ”

Baili Jingchen deliberately made a look of being close to Xuan Zhige in front of Gonggong Qin, dispelling Gonggong Qin's concerns - after all, no one has ever seen this young lady who grew up in the countryside, who knows if it is an impostor?

"Well, no. I'll do it myself. ”

Although Xuan Zhige knew Baili Zhenchen's intentions, because she was too close to him, she inexplicably panicked and wanted to retreat.

"You and I are husband and wife, why do we have so many secular etiquette?"

Baili Jingchen slammed her waist, smiled slightly like an old fox, and gently straightened her clothes with the other hand, the tenderness in her eyes was almost pinching out water, so that Xuan Zhige didn't know how to put her eyes.

"Ahem, it is said that the third prince is so good to Miss Xiangguo that he wants to hold it in his heart, seeing it like this, the rumors can't be wrong."

Father-in-law Qin on the side was a little embarrassed standing next to him, but his eyes were full of smiles.

Let my father-in-law smile. She just doesn't have a proposition, and she can't even take care of herself. ”

Baili said with a "shy" face.

Xuan Zhige blushed inexplicably, felt that his face was burning in a panic, and he really wanted to scold Baili for a while, but in front of Father-in-law Qin, he could only step on the tip of his shoe fiercely.

After hearing his gasping voice, she was satisfied and proudly drove away under the guidance of Gonggong Qin, lifted the curtain, and sat in with dignity.

"This stinky girl, why is she so ignorant of the sky."

Baili muttered helplessly, and walked towards another sedan chair.

"Get up the carβ€”"

Under the order of Gonggong Qin, the two sedan chairs swayed one after the other and walked towards the palace.

Pass through the long street, step on the palace gate, enter the imperial bridge, and fall off the sedan chair in front of the Taiji Palace.

With the sound of Father-in-law Qin's long voice, "Fall off the sedan chair-", Xuan Zhige gently lifted the curtain.

What catches the eye is the sunlight line lightly lifts through the eaves of the glazed tiles, refracts the whole hall shining, as if there is a colorful light shrouded in the dragon and phoenix feathers, a jump, is the blue sky of thousands of miles.

The golden pillars and vermilion window ridges complement each other, and the pattern of the dragon soaring for nine days spirals upwards until it reaches the highest point of the eaves!

The white Han jade laid out table covers an area of more than 1,000 acres, and the steps are two jade lions of different shapes on both sides, or not angry and arrogant, or solemn.

Xuan Zhige couldn't help swallowing her saliva, a little stage frightened.

At this time, Gonggong Qin stepped forward and whispered to Xuan Zhige and said, "Niangniang, please go this way." ”

"There is Father-in-law."

At this time, Baili Jingchen passed by Xuan Zhige's side, gently and easily took her hand, and smiled at her slightly, the sunshine happened to pass by his eyes.

makes people think for a moment that that touch of tenderness is so real.

Xuan Zhige looked at such a hundred miles of shocking dust in a daze, but heard him say proudly and gloomily in her ear: "You don't leave again." Others will think that you want me to carry you into the main hall. ”

"Think beautifully."

Xuan Zhige instantly blushed to the base of his neck, muttered, and then broke free from Baili Jingchen's hand in a little panic, carrying a long skirt, and didn't care about any etiquette, just walked towards the top of the main hall with a hard head.

"Huh. She's really a woman who blushes easily. ”

Baili Jingchen wiped his lips with interest, followed closely behind, and strode towards the top of the main hall.

He has walked this road countless times.

Or reinstatement, or punishment, or hypocrisy, or power.

Only this time, he seemed to walk with ease.

This also made Baili a little surprised.

After the steps were finished, the two had already arrived outside the main hall, and at the signal of Gonggong Qin, a little eunuch walked quickly to the top of the main hall to tell Emperor Yuansheng.

The scorching sun was a little harsh and scorching on Xuan Zhige's clothes, making her feel a burst of heat for no reason.

Not long after, the little eunuch came back quickly, glanced at Xuan Zhige and Baili Jingchen in embarrassment, and said embarrassedly: "Your Majesty is asleep now, I guess...... I couldn't wake up for a while. ”

What a sensible person Gonggong Qin is, as soon as he heard this, he knew that this was because the emperor didn't like the two of them very much, and he intended to dry the two of them.

However, no matter how bad Xuan Zhige and Baili Jingchen are, they are also masters, and this face still has to pass.

So, I saw Gonggong Qin smiling all over his face, bowing slightly with the wrinkles on his face and asking, "Your Majesty is asleep now, and it will take a while." Why don't the two of them go down with the old slave and rest? ”

"No need. There is Lao Gonggong. My father-in-law will go and prepare some snacks for my father to wake up. We'll just wait here. ”

Baili Jingchen obviously saw through the deep meaning at a glance, but he didn't show his face, smiled slightly, and found a step for Gonggong Qin.

"Then, the old slave will retire first."

Gonggong Qin took advantage of the situation and saluted, turned around and left.

"Hundred miles of shock, you royal, see your own Lao Tzu, is it still so troublesome?"

Xuan Zhige couldn't help but roll her eyes and complain.

With such a big sun, standing until the old man of the emperor wakes up, he can't be roasted?

"I advise you, it's better to talk less. There are eyes everywhere here, and if you don't pay attention, your head will be separated. I'm an unfavored prince, and I may not be able to keep you. ”

Baili glanced at her and said coldly.

"I see, this old man of the emperor also knows that I am a fake, right? I'm taking this opportunity to punish you. It is impossible for an emperor who calls for wind and rain not to even know what his son has done. It's just a matter of turning a blind eye. ”

Xuan Zhige muttered in a low voice, and did not forget to sweep the expressionless Baili Dust with his residual vision.

This guy, since he entered the palace, is like a different person.

The whole person is like a talking wood, very boring.

"Noise. Shut up. Otherwise, you will die a terrible death. ”

Baili snorted, obviously a little annoyed.

Xuan Zhige closed her mouth in amusement.

I don't know how long I stood there, Xuan Zhige only felt that the world had changed color, and she was also in a deep twilight somehow fell asleep, but when she woke up, she was leaning on the shoulder of Baili Shock.

And he, as if he had maintained the same position, remained motionless for so long.

Finally, when twilight was approaching, an old and lazy voice of Emperor Yuansheng came from the main hall-

"Hey, I said, what about the young lady Xiangguo who I asked the third child to pass the door? Why didn't you come for half a day? ”

Then, there was a delicate voice from Gonggong Qin: "That Miss Xiangguo arrived first, and when I saw you sleeping, I couldn't bear to disturb you." No, right now, I'm still waiting outside. The third prince is also considerate, and he was afraid that she would collide with Long Yan at a little girl's house, so he followed and came together. ”

"Oh? Is there such a thing? The third child has also waited so long? ”

Emperor Yuansheng asked as if he didn't know anything, pretending to be confused.

"That's not it. On this day, I'm afraid I'm going to be hot. ”

Gonggong Qin said with a smile while serving snacks.

"Announce it quickly, announce it quickly."

Emperor Yuansheng had a smile on his face, waved his hand, and motioned for the two of them to enter the hall.

"Xuan-Xuan, the daughter of Xiangguo, the third prince enters the palace!"

With a shout from Gonggong Qin, Xuan Zhige happily pulled Baili Jingchen to enter the hall, but was unexpectedly pulled by Baili Jingchen and knelt down, and then she saw Baili Jingchen kneeling tiredly and kowtowing on the ground, but her voice responded loudly-

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Xuan Zhige saw such a humble begging for the attention of Emperor Yuansheng, and his heart was sour for no reason-could it be that he had come over like this for so many years?

So humble, so hard, so ignored, so ignored?

She couldn't help but sigh lightly, knelt down, kowtowed deeply, and said in a loud voice: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”

His knees had been on his knees for too long, and he had been in the same position for too long, and the moment he stood up, he staggered a little.

She subconsciously grabbed him, and looked at him with distress in her eyes.

She asked softly, "Are you alright?" ”

He just took a step forward, grabbed her hand, and said softly, "It's okay." Are you afraid? ”

Xuan Zhige saw that at this time, he was still thinking about her, and it seemed that it was not as annoying as it seemed in the daytime.

She slowly let go of the hand he was holding her tightly, gently pushed it away, and said slowly, "Don't be afraid." Don't worry about me. Hold on for so long, for a while, take a good grasp. ”

Baili Jingchen naturally knew why she pushed him away, but after a trace of loneliness flashed in her eyes, she said softly: "Thank you." ”
