Chapter 41: The Three Ann Sisters
When Concubine An arrived, it was already an hour later.
Xiao Xi'er fell asleep soundly in the hammock, Gong Jun was teaching Gong Yue how to use a sword, and Gong Lao Qi and I sat on the small stone pier on the side, chatting with each other.
When Gong Lao's little maidservant Dongmei hurriedly ran over, she was almost knocked down by Gong Yue. Dongmei immediately bowed her head and apologized: "The fifth prince of Yue forgives the sin, the slave maid did not mean it." ”
Although Gong Yue said that it was okay, Dongmei was still scolded by Gong Laoyu: "What's the matter? So flustered. ”
Dongmei is a charming-looking maidservant, although she is about the same age as Little Peach, but she is the type that is very popular with people at a glance, which is in modern times, it can be regarded as a school flower level of a third-tier city general middle school.
Dongmei hurriedly walked in front of the palace elder and replied: "Back to the master, it is Concubine An and the county lord who have arrived." The princess ordered the slaves and maids to come to find Master Xuan and other princes, brothers and sisters. ”
Gong Lao Yu waved her hand and told her to leave first, and after I woke up Xiao Xi'er, we set off to meet her.
This is the first time I have met the legendary woman who lives at the center of power and thinks about how to intrigue with countless women every day, and I can't help but feel a little nervous.
Xiao Xi'er slept in a daze and walked a little staggeringly. Gong Jun and Gong Yue, as well as Gong Lao, were right in front of me, and everyone's steps were sonorous and powerful, and the position was sound. On the other hand, the two of us are really like a walking corpse, Xiao Xi'er is walking softly against me, and I haven't had a lunch break today, only the nervous heartbeat is pulling this body for me, this state is really not optimistic.
The venue of the banquet on the side has been replaced by a stage at some point, and there are many people who are busy building and furnishing, and we continue to move along the corridor, and the old man suddenly slowed down his steps and said to me: "I saw my imperial aunt for a while, remember to say few words, she asked you to answer, not to ask, not to answer." ”
I nodded mechanically, I know this, Xiao Peach and Hei Ye have explained to me, telling me not to talk too much, and not to speak if I can. Cause less trouble and take the sense of non-existence to the extreme.
Gong Yue also heard Gong Lao's explanation, looked back at me, and said, "Why am I so flustered." ”
The roll of my eyes rolled to the sky, how terrible I was, so unconfident in me.
Gong Lao Qi echoed: "It's really not worry-free. I had already told her to take leave today, but she just didn't listen. ”
Do they all know that these people are going to make things difficult for me? But what was there that I didn't know?
I was full of doubts, Xiao Xi'er's head rested on my arm, and when I walked quickly to the hall of Anjuyuan, the old man of the palace quickened his steps again, and several maidservants stood at the entrance of the corridor, and they saluted us one by one.
Gong Lao Yu walked in first, only to see him step forward quickly, bypass the Bizhu barrier, and go straight to the woman in the middle of the hall.
The woman's forehead is made of golden peony flowers in front of the forehead chain fixed on both sides of the bun, in the middle of the bun is a soaring phoenix tail gilt crown and stands, the face is ruddy, the eyebrows are charming and amorous, a red dress Shaman is cloaked, lined with a dignified and noble temperament, on the left side is the princess of the palace, on the right is the lady of Na'an, the three sisters of the An family are in the same house, take a closer look, the face is similar tight, but the aura is different.
No wonder people say that people rely on clothes and horses on saddles, and this is really a truth that does not need to be verified.
The palace elder pounced directly on Concubine An Gui in the main hall, and said coquettishly: "Aunt Huang, why did you come here now, the concubine said to Xuan'er yesterday that you came early in the morning, I'm afraid it's all too late, Aunt Huang, you are too slow." ”
Concubine An smiled very delicately and said to him, "What's the matter? Thinking so much about your imperial aunt, don't you say that you will enter the palace with your mother and concubine to see the palace? ”
Xiao Xi'er and I followed the other two princes to salute everyone in the hall and greet everyone: "Congratulations to Concubine An (imperial aunt) Jin An." Princess (aunt, mother) Jin An. Mother (aunt) Fu'an. ”
Only then did Concubine An sweep her eyes to us and beckoned to Xiao Xi'er: "Yo, this is Xi'er, she has grown up a lot." Come on, come on, and ask the imperial aunt to take a look. ”
Xiao Xi'er glanced at me with big eyes, and then went alone reluctantly. So, very embarrassedly, we were left with the three of us standing beside the blue bead barrier.
The princess of the palace pulled the palace old man out of Concubine An's arms, and said angrily: "Don't be so unruly, go, take your brothers, and go to Qinyuan with a girl." Your county lord's sister and Jue's brother are also there. ”
Gong Lao Qi was originally a naughty person, and said directly to Concubine An: "Aunt Huang, you are annoyed Xuan'er." ”
Concubine An Guifei smiled coquettishly, very crisply: "Look, third sister, this palace said that this Xuan'er is the most interesting, and it is also very loved by this palace, let you hand it over to this palace to take good care of, you still don't want to, look at this Xuan'er or kiss this palace, right?" ”
The princess of the palace replied with a smile: "This Xuan'er has no rules since she was a child, if she really goes to the palace with her sister, I am afraid that I don't know how many bad things I will cause my sister." ”
"The emperor's aunt is eccentric, so she likes Brother Xuan." Xiao Xi'er interjected, "Don't ask Xi'er to go." ”
Mrs. An hurriedly pulled her back, reproaching: "Don't talk nonsense, your imperial aunt has a lot of things to do every day, how can she have time to take care of you." Then he smiled apologetically to Concubine An: "Sister, don't blame, Xi'er is not sensible, my sister will be strictly disciplined when she goes back." ”
"Nothing." An Guifei smiled at the corner of her mouth, but I looked at it but it was very crazy, and I don't know if it was because Xiao Taozi told me about her bad deeds, and I had a preconceived concept in my heart. So even this smile made me feel goosebumps all over my body.
I don't know if it was intentional or not, Gong Jun actually moved her body, blocking my view of Concubine An. I exhaled slowly, only to hear the old man of the palace say again: "Thanks to the love of the imperial aunt, Xuan'er will definitely visit the imperial aunt often in the future, and she will definitely live up to the imperial aunt's love." ”
"Look at it...... Concubine An smiled from ear to ear, "This little mouth is really gratifying." ”
"My sister praised it falsely. This little guy will coax people with this mouth. ”
Gong Lao Mi was obviously dissatisfied with this evaluation, and said: "Mother, you are wrong, Xuan'er will have a lot." It's just that you don't know. ”
I couldn't help but shudder, this palace elder coaxing the elders to be happy is really first-class. It seems that this Concubine An loves this guy very much, isn't this boasting again......
"yes. Sister, don't always think that Xuan'er is bad. In the eyes of this palace, Xuan'er is the smartest and smartest of these princes and brothers. ”
The princess of the palace didn't feel that her face was very bright, and continued to hit the palace boss: "It's just that my sister likes his playful nature, if this is someone else, I'm afraid it's too late to hate it." ”
The old man of the palace turned his back to us, and he couldn't see his expression, only to hear him lie coquettishly again: "Aunt Huang, look at your mother, how can you talk about your own child like this." ”
An Guifei was amused by this guy and couldn't stop laughing: "You, you're a happy baby." My aunt can't love enough. ”
Sure enough, it's true love, and just now I kept saying that this palace was the main palace, and these few words changed to call myself......
The old man of the palace had to inch in, and said provocatively to his mother: "Look, my aunt still has a vision and knows Xuan'er's excellence, mother, you should really study hard with your aunt." ”
"Sister, look at it, this is what you should say to your elders."
Concubine An Guifei protected the little demon king and hugged him: "Where is my sister, what is this called, the eldest husband is not informal, according to my sister, this little Xuan'er in our family will become an atmosphere." ”
"Mother, look at it, Xuan'er likes to talk to the imperial aunt, and always speaks to Xuan'er very well. Unlike the concubine, I always feel that Xuan'er is not good, and that is not good. ”
Concubine An squinted at him, but there was a trace of worry between her eyebrows, and the difference at that moment fell into the eyes of me who was secretly observing them behind Gong Jun. I only heard her sigh and said: "It's really bigger and more unruly, it's time for the mother to reflect on it, how can you teach you a sharp-tongued child." This skill has also been shown, you can take your brothers and sisters, go down, right? ”
Only then did the palace elder respond happily: "It is as the mother and concubine wish." The emperor's aunt, and Aunt An, Xuan'er will take Xi'er's sister down first. ”
As he spoke, he took Xiao Xi'er's hand and walked towards the three of us. After the few of us saluted one by one, we were led by the palace elder to the other end of this peaceful residence.
After stepping out of their sight, I was secretly relieved that everything was really going well, and I wasn't embarrassed. Gong Lao Yu walked in the front, after walking through the corridor of two turns, there was a slightly larger arch, the pattern of this side is completely different from that side, there are no rows of guest rooms, the corridor is finished, through the arch, it is another courtyard, the style is completely different, the two sides of the empty courtyard are connected by a symmetrical sea of flowers, there is not so regular Tianzi grid, but it is also high-end, can not be questioned.
After the empty courtyard, across the front of the Shihai Gate, it is another scene, there is an apricot forest, but a bit like the courtyard on the right side of the long prince, I have a very strange premonition, a few steps forward to catch up with the palace old man, pointed to the side of the apricot forest and asked him: "This should not be connected to the courtyard of the chief prince Chen, right?" ”
Gong Lao Qi raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Not bad, smart." ”
I just ignored him. But he didn't care about my expression, but asked me, "No, when have you ever been to Brother Chen's yard?" ”
I instantly felt that my heart was empty, but when I thought about it, what did he force me to do, what did it have to do with me? With enough confidence, his aura naturally had to keep up, so he raised his neck and said to him, "Before." ”
He looked at me for a moment before replying with contempt: "If you want to go from me to Brother Chen's courtyard, you have to have excellent light skills." It's a pity you don't. ”
I can't deny this, but I just want to know, wouldn't it be light, if you want to get from here to him, you have to go around most of the palace? As curious as I was, I didn't want to ask any more, because I didn't want to go there, and it was a foolish decision to continue to dwell on this topic with the old man of the palace.
