Chapter 421: The tacit understanding between the prospective mother-in-law and the prospective daughter-in-law
Chang'an in the month is still cold, however, for Qu Tushenruo, who has just changed his clothes at home from the northwest, the weather can be said to be extraordinarily warm. Although she Yunying is not married, she is a frequent visitor in the circle of noblewomen in the capital, and she often goes in and out of Luoyang Palace when she is in Luoyang, and this Chang'an Penglai Palace naturally comes in. However, when I re-entered this Penglai Palace after more than three years of absence from Chang'an, I inevitably felt that my eyes were suddenly bright.
The summer palace in the past is now like this!
Since the construction of the Fumen into the palace, she from the Guangfan Gate West Dynasty Hall and Han Yuan Palace, and then into the Zhaoqing Gate, this way to walk over, most of the scenery in the Penglai Palace comes into view, it is a magnificent scene. When passing by Hanyuan Palace, she had the heart to take a look twice, and saw that the hall was majestic but looked a little deserted, and couldn't help but smile slightly.
The so-called nine days to open the palace, all the countries to worship the crown, that is, the grand scene of the Hanyuan Palace. This Hanyuan Hall is the same as the Taiji Palace, it is supposed to be used in the Zhengdan and the Winter Solstice Dynasty, if it is not for the fact that it has just been completed now and needs to show the magnanimity of a great country, even the Son of Heaven is impossible to go to court here every day, and it is impossible to know that the general small dynasty is impossible to gather hundreds of officials.
"Flying White Lady...... No, Miss Qu Tu, I've already informed the mother, let's hurry up! ”
Seeing that the little chamberlain who led the way turned his head abruptly, Qu Tushenruo was not as angry as he was when he heard his own Taoist name in the past, but instead smiled. The little chamberlain had also heard the seniors talk about this one's famous name, and at this time, seeing Qu Tushenruo's bright smile, he had already thrown the warning of others out of the clouds, and only hoped that she would laugh again. Walking is a little absent-minded.
met such a new Ding. Qu Tushenruo naturally would not let go of the great opportunity, and the next road along the way could not help but pull back and forth, putting on a kind expression. Satisfactorily set out all the big and small things that happened in the palace during this period of time, and then stepped into the gate of Hanliang Hall with satisfaction. And when she entered, the little waiter outside remembered what he had just said, and suddenly his face turned pale, and he glanced left and right and hurriedly slipped away.
"Meet the Queen!"
Ah Qian stood beside Empress Wu and watched Qu Tushenruo stride in a fiery red fox skin robe. Bowed deeply to the ground, and saw that she was wearing a crescent white jade comb behind her hair, and in the middle was wearing a golden crown that shook the step.
Thinking that the other party was not much different in age from herself, Li Xian actually said that she was going to marry, Ah Qian couldn't help but feel a little jealous, and even felt a little sorry for herself.
"It turns out that our Mulan is back!"
Just when I saw the bead curtain lifted outside. Empress Wu immediately laughed. When she saw Qu Tushen bowing down, she pulled the person up with a slight nod, and saw that there was no other seat next to her, so she simply pulled her to sit down beside her. After a long period of careful study, he suddenly sighed.
"The bitter cold land of the northwest. Even if some men are reluctant to go, you are a woman who has traveled thousands of miles for several days and nights, and sure enough, women are not allowed to shave their eyebrows! It's a pity that such a great achievement cannot be praised, otherwise when the legend of the martyr is rebuilt in the future, there will definitely be more Shen Ruo you! ”
Qu Tushenruo smiled sincerely: "In front of Niangniang, I won't say those deceitful and humble words!" I have a daughter's family, and I don't want to live on this, what's the reputation? Although I was lucky enough to catch a big fish, if it wasn't for Rokuro's victory, how would I have such good luck? Niangniang just said that I am Mulan, and I am not as loyal and filial as her, just for my own careful thinking. If it weren't for Xiao Helan sighing all day long, I would have been worried about what his situation would be at that border, and he wouldn't have made this trip! ”
"What a Shen Ruo, you are honest!"
Seeing that Qu Tushen was undisguised, Empress Wu felt more and more fond of it, and couldn't help nodding again and again: "No wonder Xian'er's letter is written explicitly, saying that he must marry you, which makes it difficult for me for a while!" Anyway, I'll talk to Helan at that time, and when he comes back, I'll marry the two of you!" ”
Rao is Qu Tushen Ruo has always been bold and bold, but he was a little hesitant on the issue of marriage, and his face turned red when he heard the words. Seeing Empress Wu's blazing eyes staring at her, she had to take a deep breath and quickly raised her head, but the shyness just now had disappeared without a trace.
"Niangniang, this time I came back, I only rested for two nights on the road, and I drove for five days in a row. His Majesty's illness was first written by my uncle, so Rokuro already knew about it. However, he was ordered by the king, and he did not dare to return privately without an edict, so I came back on his behalf. ”
Speaking of this, Qu Tu Shen Ruo stood up, left his seat and knelt down: "Since Niangniang mentioned my marriage just now, it is to admit that Shen Ruo will be Niangniang's daughter-in-law." Since Liulang will not be able to come back for a while and a half, if the mother has something, please send Shen Ruo at will, and go to the soup to fight the fire! ”
Although Empress Wu felt that Qu Tushen's return in such a hurry must be related to Li Xian, and she had guessed that Li Xiandi was well-informed, and it was likely that she had already known about Li Zhi's illness, but she didn't expect what she said just now. However, after all, she was not used to changing everywhere, and she was only stunned for a moment, and then patted Qu Tushenruo on the shoulder with a smile.
"Xian'er, this kid is good at everything, but he is eccentric and has a lot of thoughts, where is there so much danger in Chang'an City? He led troops in the northwest, which is a bitter cold place, which is much more dangerous than the comfort nest of Chang'an! Shen Ruo, don't learn from him, what is going to the soup, how can it be so serious! ”
Qu Tushenruo looked up at Empress Wu's calm and confident face, and after a little consideration, he gritted his teeth and said: "In the peaceful and prosperous world, there are actually people who hide His Majesty's illness from the prince of the border pass, if it is not for Chang'an's abnormal state, why do you have to do this?" Niangniang, if the northwest is still in the midst of war now, His Royal Highness King Yong will naturally not be able to come back; However, the state army has withdrawn, and there is good news from Anxi, so why hide it? It's not that Shen Ruo is too careful, this thing is really hearty. ”
Empress Wu's eyes suddenly became extremely cold, and when she looked at each other, she saw that her sharp gaze could not scare Qu Tushenruo back, she had to sigh, and then showed a helpless smile, so she had to pull the person up, and complained as if it were true: "You and Xian'er are really a natural pair, this mind is so tight!" You're a woman, it's easy to get in and out of anywhere, I just don't have an errand to do everything, if you really want to, just walk around for me! ”
"Obey the mother's orders!"
Qu Tushenruo bowed his head and replied, and then took out Li Xian's family letter, such a move naturally made Empress Wu surprised for a while. Then she took a look at it, sometimes frowning, sometimes smiling, and finally fell into deep thought thoughtfully.
Since Li Yifu stepped down and Xu Jingzong died of old age, her influence in the court has been declining day by day. Shangguanyi Liu Xiangdao didn't stumble on her before, who knew that as soon as Liu Xiangdao died and Liu Renliang came to power, it would be more and more difficult to do anything. Li Jingxuan's qualifications are still shallow, and he can't serve as the chief of the Zhongshu Sect, and there is no place under the Zhongshu Sect that she can be sure of now!
Her only advantage and chance of victory is that the power to govern comes from the emperor's personal approval, which is a fact that no one can refute!
After flicking the letterhead twice, she suddenly stood up, walked herself to a candlestick, and put the piece of paper up. In a few moments, the flames burned it all, leaving only a field of charred ashes. Seeing this scene, Ah Qian, who thought she could see what Li Xian had written, suddenly felt a tense in her heart, and became more and more annoyed.
And after Empress Wu stood silent for a moment, she finally turned around, and the smile on the corner of her mouth was unusually charming: "Since Xian'er said so, I will leave this matter to Shen Ruo!" ”
Walking out of the Hanliang Hall and breathing a breath of cold air, Qu Tushenruo only felt that the tiredness that had just sprung up disappeared, and the whole person was still full of endless vitality. She didn't leave the palace immediately, but deliberately lingered under the porch for a while. Sure enough, after a short time, I saw Ah Qian hurriedly come out and look around for a while.
"Kishang Palace!"
At first hearing this cry, Ah Qian immediately followed the voice, and saw Qu Tushen Ruo standing next to the pillar looking at him with a smile, and couldn't help but change her complexion, and immediately wondered - how did she know that she would come out?
Qu Tushenruo didn't give her a chance to carefully solve her doubts, walked forward with a smile on his face, pulled the person aside affectionately, and stuffed a letter without waiting for Ah Qian to ask questions, and then blinked mysteriously: "Before leaving, Liulang specially ordered me to bring this to you!" Well, I've brought the letter, and it's time to go! ”
Ah Qian pinched the thick letter in her hand, and saw that Qu Tushen went down the steps regardless of it, and after a while, he disappeared without a trace, and he couldn't help but feel even more depressed in his heart. When she returned to the palace with the letter in hand, she couldn't help but be a little absent-minded. Fortunately, Empress Wu was upset because of Li Xian's letter, and she didn't pay attention to her careful thoughts, so she was successfully confused. When she returned to her room in the evening, she locked the door and eagerly began to read.
Different from the concise silk silk given to Empress Wu, this letter Li Xian wrote on parchment, all of which were small, and there was nothing important on it.
And at the end of the large piece of parchment, behind the familiar signature, there was a graffiti-like smiling face.
"This dead man is not serious about writing letters!"
Taking a sip angrily, she looked at the flickering candle flame, thought of the martial queen's actions during the day, wanted to do it but felt reluctant, and finally found the scissors, crushed them piece by piece, put them away with a brocade bag, and immediately hung them solemnly around her neck.
