Chapter Eighty-Nine: Prince Hibiscus
This one she has seen many times, it is the same Hibiscus boy who can always be met, and he is still followed by the fierce god who wants to rob her of food. They turned out to be people from the north?! Moreover, looking at their group, he was the only one in the black pressure, dressed in white, like a white and proud snow lotus blooming on the top of the snow-capped mountain.
Could it be that he has a heavy responsibility in the North Barracks?
No, looking at his body, he doesn't look like a soldier, and in her opinion, this Jin Gongzi doesn't behave like a person with a knife, but like a pampered rich kid, and his body is a little like Yan Jiusi. Yan Jiusi's manners were not learned by ordinary people, unless he was deeply educated at the same level as him.
Then it is very likely that he is the prince of the north, and it is no wonder that he does not tell his surname. Rong, the surname of the royal family of the Beiao land, if you say it, you will be able to wear everything. Liang Chen calmed down in his heart and thought about it secretly.
Getting closer, all the marching warriors stopped, and Rong Jin turned over and dismounted, his movements light and crisp. Ah Lie beside him and the proud woman named "Xiao Yu" also dismounted with him and followed him. In the carriage behind her, it was Qin Rujun who walked out, and she also dismounted and walked behind Rong Jin with the support of the maidservant. The young man he met in the teahouse had already changed into a military uniform, and followed behind everyone with a long knife at his waist. Immediately afterwards, the army neatly moved out of the way, and one after another the attendants and maidservants who carried boxes in their hands or on their shoulders came out, followed behind the people in front of them, and pulled a long line in a mighty way.
"Rong Jin has seen Emperor Yan and Empress." Rong Jin calmly came to the palace gate, did not bow down to them, but stretched out his hand and waved it, and said with a faint smile.
"Prince Jin, don't be too polite, I've been waiting for a long time, but I can be regarded as looking forward to you." Yan Wuyuan held his head high, he looked good, and he did have the courage and momentum of an emperor.
"Rong Jin is honored to be greeted by His Majesty in person, but the journey is unfamiliar and delayed for a while. I hope that Your Majesty will forgive me. He said it lightly, without any sin.
"Naturally, since you are here, then you will move to the palace. I have prepared a feast of wine for the prince. Yan Wuyuan invited Rong Jin into the palace like a master.
"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty." Rong Jin bowed his head in response, and then followed the holy driver into the palace gate.
The officials and nobles of the Yan Emperor Dynasty entered the palace gate with a long procession from the north, and a corridor that originally looked extremely long was now all connected.
Liangchen followed Mrs. Ye in the ranks of the female dependents, but Mrs. Ye was not only the wife of the protector general, but also the daughter of the Ye Hou family, and her status was a few levels higher than others, so she walked behind the eldest princess and the princesses, and behind them were the official wife and the young lady. I have to say that although Mrs. Ye loves to be unreasonable, she can completely stand on her feet on this occasion, not panicked or hurried, and calmly seems to be used to it. And she is by no means a half-old, but the charm still exists, I have to say that the education of this generation of nobles and high-ranking officials is indeed not to be underestimated. Although there are traces of moonlight on his face, the noble temperament of a person in his forties seems to be innate.
Liang Chen's eyes swept around, next to him were the teams of princes and county kings, who were generally about the same age as Zong Zhengye, and there were also slightly younger ones, Yan Wuyuan was almost canonized as the crown prince and the first emperor flew to Jackie Chan in just a few years, so it was very hasty, even the queen was a relative who saw the emperor die soon before he ascended the throne, lest the new emperor be married for the national funeral, resulting in a big country not even having a queen.
Yan Wuyuan had no intention of being a woman, there was not even a side concubine in the prince's mansion, and the queen mother at that time had also thought about choosing it for him, but Yan Wuyuan rejected it for all kinds of strange reasons, even Song Qingyang or Queen Song agreed to marry each other with death, so that now there is not even a concubine in the harem, only Song Qingyang is the mother of the country. After the national funeral is over, the draft can expand the harem. Therefore, he has neither a prince nor a concubine, but he also appears pure.
Liang Chen came back to his senses and realized that he didn't know where he had gone, and when he looked in front of him, he had already walked a long way. Her eyes saw the body of the eldest princess, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, who was the same as Yan Wuyuan's mother. She still remembered that at that time, in the courtyard of unknown places, she heard that the eldest prince was going to give a purse to Yan Jiusi, and confessed her heart to him. Although it is true and touching, it is a period of unruly and unspeakable incest. At that time, when she was caught eavesdropping, she was worried that she would be clicked by Yan Jiusi's knife, but she still lived well until now, waiting to go home next year.
The eldest princess she had just seen, she was a weak and elegant woman, with dignified and impeccable manners, and she had the gifts and bearing that the eldest princess should have. But her eyebrows are ripe, and she is no longer as lively and fresh as a girl, but she is twenty-one years old because she has not yet married because of the national funeral, and she is willing to abide by the national funeral for the emperor. However, I heard that the emperor had already chosen a suitable horse for her, and if the national mourning was over, she would let her marry in the scenery.
It's just that she is pitiful for treating Yan Jiusi so deeply, it is really unsatisfactory and evil.
"Cousin, what are you thinking? Looking so fascinated? A familiar voice came, and Liangchen felt that someone was pulling the corner of her clothes. Turning her head, Ye Daixi pulled the corner of her clothes and asked curiously.
Although the girl lived here for a while not long ago, she has not seen more and more people these days, and she seems to be even taller. It's just that the innocence in her eyes has not changed half a point when she looks at herself. Today, she is also dressed very decently, dressed in blue, which is refreshing.
Liangchen touched her head lovingly, pulled her to her side and said with a smile: "I didn't think about anything, why do you look thin today?" Is it because you've grown taller? ”
Ye Daixi shook her head and said, "That's because I don't follow my cousin, I don't have anything to eat, and I want to lose weight if I miss my cousin." Listening to her ass, she slapped her heart, and said: "Your little mouth is really sweet, it makes me take you to eat big fish and meat every day, as if you haven't had fun!"
Well, but it seems like it's a big fish......
"Auntie, I'll have to sit with my cousin in a while, okay?" Ye Daixi puffed out her cheeks slightly and said coquettishly to Mrs. Ye.
"You kid, I don't know what's going on, and now I'm so clinging to your cousin, I really can't grow up." Before Mrs. Ye could speak, someone behind her smiled. Liang Chen glanced back, it was a lady about the same age as Mrs. Ye.
"Mother, I just like my cousin." Listening to Ye Daixi's words, it turned out that the lady was Ye Daixi's mother, the daughter-in-law of Ye Hou's Mansion, Yun Shi.
"Ouch, sister-in-law, it's best for the two of them to be so good, let's not bother them." Mrs. Ye took a step away and walked to Mrs. Xu's side, and said with a smile.
"You are such a sticky cool dust, and you are not afraid that the prince will dislike you." Mrs. Xu said with a smile.
Ye Dai flattened her mouth, hugged Liangchen's arm and said aggrievedly: "I won't ......"
"Ah Liang, what are you laughing at?" A calm voice came from the other side, Liang Chen turned his head sideways, it turned out that Yan Lingxiao was standing on the far side of the prince's team, and she happened to be on the very side, the two happened to be on the line, and they walked side by side.
Liangchen was embarrassed in his heart, so close, what should I do?
But...... Why does he also call her "Ah Liang"?! She was a little stunned, this name, she only shouted shamelessly after Yan Jiusi, it turned out that Yan Lingxiao also called her like this?
I'm not used to it.
"It's nothing, just kidding." She replied with a slight smile, both decent and intimate.
Liangchen pulled Ye Daixi and followed the team into the spacious palace hall - Yifeng Palace. The hall was large enough to accommodate all the nobles and dignitaries, with seats and banquets on both sides, and an empty space in between. On one side sat the men, on the other side sat the women, and the upper seat was the emperor and the empress, and the closest side seat to the emperor was prepared for Rong Jin. This is called magnificent, resplendent and splendid, and Liangchen suspects that everything under his feet is actually gold.
Ye Dai sat next to Liangchen, and Liangchen sat next to Mrs. Ye, the lower the position, the closer to the threshold. And Liangchen happened to sit in the upper middle position, in several princesses, high-status ladies, general's wife, prime minister's wife, and marquis's wife...... That is, the six mothers who went out of Zong Zhengye all came.
"We Beiao have selected some gifts, and I hope Your Majesty will accept them with a smile." With a wave of Rong Jin's sleeves, the maids and attendants entered the hall with their gifts.
An elderly eunuch held a red fold, and read in a shrill voice: "A pair of South China Sea coral bamboo, a pair of high-grade jade hostas, a pair of Tianshan Snow Lotus, a pair of high-grade ginseng, a string of glass beads from the Seven Seas, a pair of concentric golden locks, a hundred jars of Northwest Qiongjiu, and a pair of Xingli rings......"
This Rong Jin is really generous, Liang Chen just heard the names of those treasures, and felt that they were very expensive, and she gave them away, and she was in pain for Rong Jin. Tsk, they are all children of rich families.
"Thank you Prince Jin, Beiao's heart will be accepted, and the two countries will definitely have a peaceful friendship in the future, and they will prosper together as brothers." Yan Wuyuan said politely.
"That's natural, please take care of your majesty." Rong Jin also said with a smile.
Rong Jin looked at Yan Jiusi, who was sitting below, and saw that he was sipping tea idly, ignoring the others at all, Rong Jin's deep eyes were instantly covered with a layer of frost, and he narrowed slightly. But he forcibly endured the discomfort in his heart, so that his face was calm without a trace of emotion.
"Uncle Huang, this time Beiao is so sincere and offers so many treasures, it can be regarded as a loss, and you can pick what you like." Yan Wuyuan seemed to be deliberate, to see if Yan Jiusi would be cheeky enough to take away many of his treasures in front of so many people. Every time Yan Jiusi saw what he liked and took it away, Yan Wuyuan still felt sorry for the ice silk cloth that he lost to him at that time, so he couldn't help but protect his treasury well.
All eyes were on him at once.
Yan Jiusi naturally knew what he was trying to do when he heard this, put down the teacup, and smiled lightly, he can still slaughter a meal, but he has to slaughter a little, he opened his lips and said slowly: "Then leave the Xingli ring to the ministers, and the rest of the ministers can't afford it, only the emperor is worthy of it."
Liang Chen twitched the corner of his mouth, he couldn't afford to enjoy it and chose a pair of star separation rings, this is really hypocritical......
"Huh? Uncle Huang, this ring is a pair, if you want a pair, you are not in a hurry, so choose it at this time. I think that snow lotus and ginseng are good, I heard that the emperor's uncle works every day, and the emperor's nephew should be filial to you. Yan Wuyuan was talking nonsense in a serious manner, making it really look like his nephew was doing his filial piety to the elders of his own generation, which made people laugh and cry.
"Of course, this ginseng is to supplement the dragon body, hey, the poor royal brother failed to watch his grandson be born. You're not too young, it's time to start giving us royal branches. Yan Jiusi's words impartially stuffed Yan Wuyuan, and while persuading him that it was time to have a son, he secretly poked and prodded him to make up for more, making Yan Wuyuan's face white and red for a while.
These two people also like to mess around in this kind of grand and huge scene, and they sound quite like human words on the surface, but when they listen carefully, they are clearly hurting each other.
"Haha, Uncle Huang laughed, since Uncle Huang is so eager to pick a good gift for the future princess, I naturally can't stop it. Come here, bring all the gifts from the northern kingdom, and send the Xingli Ring to the Xuansi Palace, so that the imperial uncle won't even be able to sleep at night. Yan Wuyuan quickly recovered his complexion, but he was going to secretly provoke him again when he ended this little farce.
Sure enough, after hearing the "future princess", Liang Chen instantly felt that gaze was looking at her in unison, which provoked her heart to go up and down for a while, scolding Yan Wuyuan all over again, and praying in her heart that Yan Jiusi would go back quickly! This old fox dared to point the finger at her!
However, when Liang Chen looked at Yan Jiusi, he pouted with a faint smile without saying a word, picked up the teacup and began to drink tea by himself, his eyes only passed by her, and he did not mean to refute.
Liangchen was deflated, it seemed that he had given up on replying. Forget it over there, Liangchen didn't plan to speak at this banquet.
It's just that when she retracted her gaze, her eyes met the eyes with complex feelings, and there were rounds of water vortexes, as if they were about to suck her in. Yan Lingxiao frowned slightly and looked at her, but he looked melancholy, but Liang Chen had no waves in her heart, she really didn't remember anything about His Royal Highness King Ling, and now his eyes simply made her feel guilty, making her frequently dodge the burning gaze from King Ling.
Yan Jiusi raised his eyes and saw the two of them looking at each other across a wide corridor, his breathing became a little short, and he swallowed the tea in his mouth, and there seemed to be layers of mist surrounding his black eyes.
"Oops, it's a beautiful girl, it's so fateful, we meet again~"
At the moment of embarrassment, Qin Rumian broke the silence with a faint and soft voice, Liang Chen turned to look at her, and found that the few in the north were looking at her, and when she realized that she was looking over, Ah Lie also noticed her, and Rong Jin, who was sitting on the upper seat, also looked at her and nodded at her, as if to say hello.
Because she came from the north, Qin Rujun and Xiao Yu sat in the man's row next to Rong Jin, so Qin Rujun could easily see her. Originally, it was naturally unnoticeable in the women's pile, not to mention that everyone's attention was on the emperor and Rong Jin, but now that Yan Wuyuan said that, she became the person of public opinion, which naturally made Qin Ru recognize them at a glance.
Liang Chen leaned over slightly, and bowed his head to greet Rong Jin and Qin Rumi, who were smiling at her. Really, if she had been told that he was Rong Jin, the prince of the Northern Kingdom, who would be happy to take care of him?!
"Yo, it seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince recognizes Miss Zongzheng?" Gongsun Xiao is ready to wash again.
"Rong Jin went to Lingcheng to play before entering Beijing, and I was fortunate to have Miss Liangchen help many times." Rong Jin said calmly.
Liangchen secretly covered his face in his heart, it turned out that he knew that he was Zongzheng Liangchen, so wouldn't she have to go to the gang last time when she told them that she was called Zhuchen? Then there was her opening a shop outside......
Dead......
When she felt that she was not far from death, she was surprised that Rong Jin did not continue, just a few simple words, let her keep the secret, and he also took the initiative to change the topic, and talked with the emperor about some of the scenery and humanities he saw all the way south, and everyone seemed to pay less attention to her.
However, when I went back, I was inevitably interrogated by my family, and I got acquainted with the prince of the northern kingdom without saying a word, which violated the ancestral teachings of the patriarchal family, and I am afraid that I would inevitably kneel in the ancestral hall for a few hours and pretend.
Ay.
After the feast, which made Liang Chen so sad that he couldn't eat a bite, finally ended, they moved to the Imperial Garden and took Rong Hibiscus around the palace. These high-ranking officials and relatives of the emperor and more than 100 people followed the holy car to move the imperial garden. It's just that Yan Wuyuan was idle and there were too many people, so he arranged for the queen to entertain the queen and go to Li Yuan to talk about common things together. also sent a few princes and high-ranking officials to settle the people from the northern country. Many of his factions were sent, and a dozen or so talkative men were left behind.
Zong Zhenghua, Prime Minister Gongsun, and the eldest son of Ye Houye, that is, the Ye family is now in charge, Zong Zheng Liangchen's uncle - Ye Xing, as well as General Lin and several old ministers. Those juniors have been used to playing with Yan Wuyuan since they were children, so they are naturally indispensable.
After coming to Li Yuan, the woman's nature was revealed, and she chatted about some things that she didn't have.
"Ah, that prince is really majestic and elegant, I don't know if he has a concubine, it looks so good that he can almost catch up with the prince."
"You are still thinking about the prince, but they have been given marriage."
"Cut, it's called the prince's handsome face, I've never seen it in my life, and the prince looks so gentle, always smiling at me! Even if it's to be a concubine for him, I'm willing! Don't you think?! ”
"Smile at you? Come on, don't put gold on your face, you really think you have two looks, why don't you look at you? ”
"That's it! I think they're smiling at me! "No, no, no, I feel like I'm smiling at me too!" "That's a smile on us!"
…………
Liang Chen twitched the corner of his mouth helplessly, didn't he just smirk a few times and provoke so much more than the romantic debt, Yan Jiusi, this guy really recruited peach blossoms......
"Didn't you see Fang Cai Zongzheng Liangchen get off the prince's car?!" "Yes, the prince never lets people get close!"
"Could it be that you can't become a prince...... It's changed! "yes, maybe we can get close now!"
…………
Liang Chen and Ye Daixi sat in a corner, but they couldn't stop the spittle stars flying sideways.
"Sister Liangchen, what are you doing sitting so partially, come and talk to us!" A woman in purple shouted at her, and a woman next to her immediately grabbed her and scolded in a low voice: "What are you calling her to do, how can she ignore you and look down on you!"
Liangchen didn't seem to hear it, just smiled faintly, and said to the woman in purple: "I saw that you were so engaged in chatting, and I didn't have the embarrassment to intervene."
Those women were all stunned, they never thought that Zongzheng Liangchen would talk to them with a smile so kindly, and even his tone was so gentle?! Sure enough, are the rumors true? Zongzheng Liangchen has been modified? Is it really getting more decent?!
No wonder Prince Xuansi will take over the marriage, it turns out that she is no longer the Zongzheng Liangchen who has no one in her eyes and thinks she is superior.
"How, how!" "It's better to come with my sister!"
"yes, we're talking about my sister!" ……
Those people have elder sisters and younger sisters, don't they dare to have contact with Zongzheng Liangchen? Why are they all so attentive now? Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief!
"Yo, what's so fun? Let Hongu listen to it too. After Song Qingyang changed into his daily clothes, he walked out and saw a group of women in the ...... Dalliance? Seduce? Cool dust. He snorted coldly and said.
When everyone saw her coming, they all stood up and saluted: "Queen Mother."
Song Qingyang held the hand of the palace maid, waved his hand again, and walked straight to Liangchen's side, pulled her and said, "Let's go, let's hear what is new, so that you can be happy." She glanced at the women at the table called Liangchen over there, and those women shrank their necks at what she saw. Liangchen felt a little in a trance, why is today's queen so calm and majestic?! She's like the one who has changed her sexuality and been reborn. Originally, Song Qingyang was very good-looking, but now her momentum is almost making Liangchen feel that she is the mother of a country.
"Back to the queen, we ...... We want to have a good chat with Sister Liangchen. In the past, my sister always looked down on us people, and she didn't even bother to pay attention to it, but now my sister's mood has changed greatly and she is much gentler, so she wants to have a good time with her sister. The woman in purple bowed her head and said.
Song Qingyang raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? So, do you mind if you're together? ”
"Don't dare, don't dare." The woman shook her head again and again, who would dare?
"Then let's talk about what we have and don't have together, come, let's go and sit down." Song Qingyang said to Liang Chen.
Liangchen didn't know which way she was going, so that the monk of her second brother was confused, wouldn't it be easy to expose the strange identities of the two of them if she talked to them more?! But in front of everyone's eyes, she couldn't refuse the queen, so she could only let her pull and sit next to the group of women.
