Chapter 47: See the Old Man Again

"Mother, Yan'er is a little tired." Murong Yan dozed off, and then said with sleepiness.

"Then sleep at the concubine's place for a while, and then go back to the dormitory after dinner."

Originally, Murong Yan was leaning on the arms of the Yuan Emperor Guifei, and after the Yuan Huang Guifei finished speaking, Murong Yan was already tired and fell asleep. After Emperor Yuan's concubine shook her head, she asked the two palace maids to hold Murong Yan and put her on the soft collapse to continue sleeping.

Seeing that Murong Yan had already fallen asleep, Emperor Yuan's concubine waved her hand, and after dismissing the other palace maids, the smile in her eyes had disappeared, and was replaced by a pair of cold and cruel eyes.

The Hundred Flowers Banquet in the palace usually starts in the evening, but basically after noon, the officials will bring their families into the palace one after another. The officials entered the palace alone, and the family members were brought into the palace by the housewife of the family from the palace gate of the special female dependents. And when entering the palace, the grandmother guarding the palace gate will be checked according to the person written on the post before being put into the palace.

They enter the palace early to meet the ladies of each palace, and then they will take their daughters to enjoy the flowers in the imperial garden, and they can not return to the main hall until the evening flower banquet begins.

And this year's Hundred Flowers Banquet is not in that palace, the Hundred Flowers Banquet in previous years was also organized by the Yuan Emperor Guifei, this year is naturally no exception, the Yuan Huang Guifei has been approved by His Majesty, and this year's Hundred Flowers Banquet is held in a garden full of flowers. There are more types of flowers there than in the Imperial Garden, and His Majesty also thinks that it is a hundred flowers banquet anyway, so let's hold it in the garden.

In the afternoon, many ladies brought their daughters into the palace, and they all went to the Yuan Emperor's concubine to say goodbye. The prime minister's wife is naturally Lan Ziyu, the daughter of the Lan family. If Murong Xi sees the current Lan Ziyu, I'm afraid it will take a while to recognize her. I saw that she was very different from when she was in Xuzhou before, she was dressed in white, and the makeup on her face was also very elegant. There was no hairpin on the head like before, and there was only a hairpin flower with a few pearls on it, and there was only one hairpin with pearl tassels left. The already beautiful face looks even more beautiful and refined, and the white clothes look very noble, so it's really a different person.

She stepped forward with broken steps, knelt on the ground and greeted respectfully: "See Emperor Yuan's concubine." ”

"Hurry up, let Bengong take a good look, this is Cousin Lan's daughter? It's really a beautiful embryo. Emperor Yuan said with a smile.

The prime minister's wife nodded and said, "Imperial concubine, this is the concubine of the Lan family, Lan Ziyu." ”

"Yu'er, sit next to the palace." Emperor Yuan beckoned and let Lan Ziyu sit beside her. The other ladies who watched it were only envious.

A lady Shangshu asked flatteringly: "Niangniang, didn't the emperor find the little princess who disappeared back then?" Why didn't you see her come over to say hello? ”

Emperor Yuan's originally smiling face froze for a moment, and she returned to her original state again and said, "Xu is preparing, she just returned to the palace and didn't understand some rules, so it's okay." Mama Yan, you go to Ningxi Hall to have a look and bring the princess over. ”

"Yes." After Mama Yan got the order, she left Xianfu Palace.

At this time, Murong Xi was still sitting there stunned, she didn't want to participate in any hundred flowers banquet at all, she really wanted to tell her father that she was sick and couldn't go. Mo'er stood aside and said anxiously: "Miss, change your clothes quickly, it's been an hour after bathing, and you haven't changed your clothes yet." ”

"Got it." Murong Xi stood up extremely reluctantly, Mo'er and Linglong brought the blue clothes they had prepared yesterday, and quickly changed them for Murong Xi, and Mo'er began to comb Murong Xi's hair.

Today's Murong Xi is the same as before, just combing a simple bun, and the hair underneath is still loose. Mo'er put on the white hosta for her, and then pondered putting on Murong Xi's makeup.

At this time, Mama Yan had already arrived at the door of Ningxi Palace, and after reporting the report, she came in and said: "Your Royal Highness Princess, Emperor Yuan's concubine Niangniang asked you if you are ready, and when you are ready, let you go to Xianfu Palace to talk to her first." ”

"Mama Yan, the palace will be fine soon, you go back to your life first." Murong Xi sat there and said unhurriedly.

"Yes." After Mama Yan finished speaking, she went back.

"Mo'er, don't melt. I think that's fine, it's too late. After Murong Xi looked in the mirror, she got up and took a sip of tea, and then asked the four of them to follow her.

Mo'er frowned and had no way to take Murong Xi, so she stomped her feet and followed Murong Xi out of Ning Xi Palace.

Murong Xi slowly came to the gate of Xianfu Palace, and then asked the maid to go in and make a report.

The palace maid went in and said, "Niangniang, Her Royal Highness the princess is at the palace gate." ”

"Oh? Let Xi'er in. "The Yuanhuang concubine is very happy, in the eyes of others, this Yuanhuang concubine seems to like this eldest princess very much.

Mo'er and the four of them stayed where they were, and Murong Xi entered the Xianfu Palace alone.

Later, she found out that there were so many people sitting in the main hall. With so many people talking to you, why are you calling her over? She walked in front of Emperor Yuan's concubine without changing her face, and after saluting, she said, "See Concubine Yuan." ”

"Xi'er, sit down and talk." Emperor Yuan's concubine waved her hand and asked Murong Xi to sit down first.

"Sister." Murong Yan sat next to Emperor Yuan's concubine, stood up after seeing Murong Xi, walked to Murong Xi's side to greet Murong Xi, and then sat directly next to Murong Xi without going back.

And Lan Ziyu, who was beside Emperor Yuan's concubine, was shocked when she saw Murong Xi, it was her!

She is actually the princess who has been missing for many years, and they also married a beam when they were in Xuzhou. It's just that this woman's appearance is not outstanding, and I never imagined that she would be such an identity at that time. It is said that the queen is as beautiful as a fairy, and the emperor is also a jade tree, how could she give birth to a mediocre appearance.

After Murong Xi came in, she knew that these people were all looking her up and down. But when she looked at the woman beside Emperor Yuan's concubine, she felt very familiar. Later, after a closer look, I found that this woman was not the daughter of the Lan family in Xuzhou, Lan Ziyu? It seems that after arriving in the capital, the Yuan Emperor and the concubine must have sent a nurturing grandmother to teach her, otherwise it would not have changed so much all of a sudden.

And Mrs. Shangshu just now saw Murong Xi, and there was obviously a disdainful smile in her eyes. This princess is so good-looking, you can't find it in the crowd. Even now, any woman in the palace must have a three-third-point better appearance than her.

Emperor Yuan's concubine said with a smile: "Ladies, this is Princess Jingruo, who has been missing for many years. When Hongu heard that she was still alive, he didn't know how happy he was. The child that the emperor has been thinking about for so many years has finally come home. ”

"Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the Yuan Emperor and concubine. Courtier, I have seen Her Royal Highness the Princess. The ladies present knelt in front of the Yuan Emperor and Concubine with their young ladies and said.

"Ladies, please get up, why do you kneel down." Emperor Yuan covered her lips with a handkerchief and said with a smile.

"Yes." When the ladies got up, they sat down again and chatted about their daily lives.

And Lan Ziyu, who was sitting next to Emperor Yuan's concubine, her eyes never moved from Murong Xi's body.

Murong Xi was originally chatting with Murong Yan, and she also felt that a gaze had been on her body, so she looked in the direction of her gaze and saw that Lan Ziyu was still looking at her.

After Murong Xi nodded politely to her, he looked away and continued to chat with Murong Yan.

"Sister, I don't like that sister named Lan Ziyu." Murong Yan said bluntly.

"Oh? Why? Murong Xi asked strangely.

"Before you came in, she sat beside her concubine with a high appearance, and from the moment you came in, I found that she looked at you with no kindness." Murong Yan said seriously.

Murong Xi smiled, and then said, "Yan'er, don't say this again in the future." Otherwise, it's easy to get into trouble, you have to remember. If you don't like her, you can hide from her. ”

"Got it, sister." Murong Yan also smiled and replied.

It stands to reason that after the Prime Minister's wife saw Murong Xi, she should be very excited as her grandmother. However, after she looked at Murong Xi with disgust, she no longer had any expression. These Murong Xi naturally saw it in his eyes, and Murong Xi had a lot of doubts in his heart.

Isn't the queen the daughter of the prime minister's family? The prime minister's wife saw her granddaughter's expression like this, her youngest daughter had died, shouldn't she be extra pity and pity when she saw her granddaughter? Why is this expression? The expressions of the people sitting in the main hall were different, and in their hearts they undoubtedly felt pity for Murong Xi's appearance, and of course there were people who gloated. For example, the lady Shangshu just now.

Just thinking about it, Mrs. Shangshu spoke again: "Mrs. Prime Minister, just now the courtiers suddenly remembered that Princess Jingruo is the queen's concubine, so count you as the princess's grandmother." ”

The Prime Minister's wife's face was ugly, and after the corners of her eyes twitched obviously, she said: "Yes, it's just that the courtiers are too excited, and when they see Her Royal Highness the princess, they think of the poor daughter of the courtiers." Suddenly, there was a bit of a panic. The expression on the Prime Minister's face looked as if she was very sad, and then looked at Murong Xi sadly.

, Murong Xi raised his head and looked at the prime minister's wife and did not speak. The prime minister's wife saw Murong Xi's eyes, and pretended to wipe the tears on her face with a handkerchief in a little panic.

Although she is not outstanding, she has a pair of eyes that are exactly the same as Jin'er.

"Mother, you don't have to be too sad. Xi'er has returned to our side, and I believe that my sister will be relieved to have a spirit in the sky. Emperor Yuan persuaded him.

Then she looked at Murong Xi and beckoned Murong Xi to come over, and said, "Xi'er, come over quickly, let your grandmother take a closer look." Don't blame your grandmother, when your mother died, your grandmother was very ill. I just saw you suddenly, and I thought of my sister. ”
