Chapter 21: The Little Emperor

After lunch, the concubines and concubines in the palace have the habit of taking a lunch break. But Princess Rong'an was lying on the showy couch, thinking about the future, tossing and turning, but she couldn't sleep.

I couldn't sleep anymore, so I simply got up quietly, put on my coat, sat down in front of the dresser, and opened my mirror.

In the bright glass mirror, an original white jade-like melon seed face, flushed and lightly, eyes and eyebrows like complaints, looks really like delicate flowers shining on water, hibiscus dew. Princess Rong'an looked at it herself, and her heart couldn't help but beat faster.

This set of mirrors is Western-style, which is exactly what "he" entered. It's just that, nominally, it was not given to her, but to Concubine Ligui.

Every time Guan Zhuofan sends something to the palace, Yonghe Palace must have a copy, and the weight is second only to Zhongcui Palace and Changchun Palace, which is higher than the rest of the palace. Therefore, in a year or two, Yonghe Palace has really accumulated a lot of valuable, delicate and interesting foreign gadgets.

Not only that, some time ago, the Queen Mother suddenly gave Princess Rong'an a lot of things - all of them were given to Zhong Cui Palace by Guan Zhuofan. Note: It is for Princess Rong'an, not Concubine Ligui. And the tone is very high, and he sent the chief eunuch of Zhongcui Palace, and brought eight little eunuchs to come over to issue edicts and send things. Also, Xi'er, the personal maid of the Queen Mother, follows and takes care of various things.

"There is a true meaning in this", Zhong Cui Palace and Yonghe Palace naturally "take care of each other".

Princess Rong'an remembered the past, her heart was hot, and she couldn't bear it, so she moved a small box with black lacquer and painted luodian and put it on the countertop.

This is her jewelry box, the surface of which is intricately inlaid with gold and silver foil and luodian, which is dense and dark. Depicting the landscape of flowers and birds. Brilliant flowing gold. Lifelike, exquisite craftsmanship and subtlety, not found in Middle-earth.

This box was also entered by "him". However, it is not Western, but Eastern. It is said that it was sent by Emperor Sakura, who lived in the Qing Dynasty, and was transferred to the palace by "him".

Open the chest. Three layers of drawing, just pull out a grid, the purple velvet lining on the ground, are dazzling, treasure light flowing. If the little emperor sees it, he will definitely make fun of his sister: "Hey, your dowry is really a lot." ”

Princess Rong'an pulled out the bottom box and put it on the table - this box was full of things given by "him".

Emerald earrings. Diamond stud earrings, sapphire rings. White gold skein bracelet set with diamonds, brooch with inlaid inlays of various colored gemstones......

Most of them were rewarded by the Queen Mother.

Beauty is beautiful, but it is too beautiful, and there are many things that she can't wear at all.

For example, this white gold skein bracelet inlaid with diamonds, after getting started, turned slightly, the fine light flashed, grabbing the attention of others, and any glass emerald bracelet was compared. However, this is too ...... Swagger! If it reaches the ears of the emperor in the "west", a dustpan of gossip will come out accidentally.

For example, this brooch with various colored gemstones and inlaid flowers is truly beautiful. But what kind of clothes do you wear? Don't put it on any of your clothes, it's not right! If you want to come, you have to wear a dress to match it.

Dress, "he" has never entered, he does not have it. Besides, even if there is, I don't dare to wear it in the palace.

I had to move out when there was no one, and I played slowly by myself, and I had a "dry addiction".

At this time, earrings, studs, rings, bracelets, brooches, ...... Pick it up one by one, put it down one by one, thinking about these things in my head, all of them have passed through "his" hands, Princess Rong'an's small body, like a heart, gradually warmed up.

I was so fascinated, I don't know how long it took, and suddenly I heard someone outside shouting: "The emperor has arrived-"

Princess Rong'an was startled, and turned her head to look at the gilded chiming bell - this thing was also entered by "him".

Ah, it's not even two o'clock now!

The people who were taking a nap had already woken up, and the emperor's younger brother had also gotten out of school.

I don't know what I've been doing - I don't know how long I've been sitting here.

She hurriedly put the jewelry compartment back into the jewelry box, and she couldn't put the jewelry box back in place, and buttoned her big clothes one by one.

Outside, I remembered the clear voice of the little emperor: "Concubine Ligui is good!" ”

Then, I heard Eniang talking affectionately with the little emperor.

As soon as the last button was buttoned, Concubine Ligui outside opened the curtain herself, and the little emperor said in a proper manner: "Thank you, Concubine Gui!" Then he crossed the threshold.

Concubine Li lowered the curtain and followed.

Princess Rong'an didn't get up, glanced at the little emperor, snorted, and said, "You came here as soon as you went to school?" Why don't you go back to the 'west' and make a fancy whistle, and then it's not too late! ”

The little emperor smiled and didn't speak, and Concubine Ligui scolded her daughter with a smile: "How can you talk to the emperor?" No rules! ”

Turned to the little emperor: "Does the emperor want to eat something?" ”

"The dried bamboo shoots last time tasted very good, is there anything else?"

"Yes, yes!" Concubine Ligui said in a loud voice, "I'll ask someone to take it for the emperor!" ”

Before leaving the house, he solemnly warned his daughter: "Don't have no rules, don't talk to the emperor, chat with the emperor well!" ”

After a round of advice, the curtain was lifted and went out.

The little emperor sat down and said, "Don't worry, the emperor's afternoon nap is very late today, and she must not have woken up yet." When the time comes, if I ask, I will say that I am afraid of disturbing her old man's rest, so after school, I will go to another place first. ”

Princess Rong'an glanced at the little emperor and said with a smile: "Yo, the emperor will also be careful." ”

In the deep palace, Princess Rong'an is the only partner of the little emperor to beat Xiao'er, and the sister and brother are very affectionate, meeting and talking in private, completely ignoring etiquette. For the little emperor, Princess Rong'an is the only person he can really talk about, and at the same time, she is also the only person who can really quarrel.

The little emperor and his other sister, Princess Dunrou, also have a good relationship. However, in this relationship, there are more elements of admiration and respect. When he was with Princess Dunrou, the little emperor couldn't be as comfortable and unrestrained as he was with Princess Rong'an.

The little emperor smiled and changed the topic: "Your mother's complexion today looks very good." ”

"Yo, can you tell whose complexion is good and whose complexion is bad?"

Princess Rong'an has a "yo" on the left and a "yo" on the right, the little emperor is a little unhappy, frowned, and his mouth is slightly pursed: "Don't look down on people!" ”

After a pause, the smile resurfaced, but it became a little more sly: "In my opinion, your complexion is better!" ”
