Chapter 115 Entering the Palace
"We're all good. But Miss Xiao has gone somewhere in the past two years, and there is no news at all. ”
Xiao Changying smiled, her face did not change at all, "It's just a trip to see some scenery." When I look back, the weather is all new, and it's a little unfamiliar. ”
Song Yansheng listened to the meaning of her words, and the smile on her face was just right, "Miss Xiao San is naturally intelligent, how can there be anything that can't be adapted?" ”
Xiao Changying's smile deepened, "Yes." ”
Pulling Yuan Ying back to his position, the little county lord of Yuan snorted from his nose, "I also went out to see the scenery, and I clearly followed the third son of the emperor to take refuge." Well said. ”
"Shh Song Yansheng lowered his voice, "Don't say these words outside." Look at it, her popularity in this Wensi Pavilion has always been good, how can any girl really go far away from her? ”
Princess Bao Hui also came today, and I don't know if I learned the news of her return, but the two sat not far away, and said something from time to time.
After a while, Mama Jiao Xi came, this is Aunt Fang who had been by the side of the Queen Mother in the palace, she has always been strict, and the girls sent the embroidery, and it was okay at first, but when she arrived at Yuanying, her face was not very good-looking.
Yuan Ying was very simple, bowed her head and admitted her mistake, "Auntie, I didn't finish embroidering." ”
“……”
This honesty, Aunt Fang was stalked, she coughed, as an old man in the palace, when had she ever seen such an embroidery, this embroidery...... What the hell?! Holding the embroidery and looking at Yuan Ying, who was hanging his head, he suddenly suddenly realized, "I said who embroidered it, it was Yuan Xiaojun Lord." You, this poem, calligraphy, piano and painting can't be done, and the embroidery can't be done, what can you do in the future? Look at the embroidery of Miss Xiao, how good this color stitch is, hey......"
Yuan Ying pursed her lips and reluctantly glanced at it.
Xiao Changying's embroidery has just been praised by name, and the Aoshuang Pavilion is indeed exquisite and can be called the top grade. She stood up, shook her head and said humbly, "Aunt Meng likes it, I am far worse than the old people in the palace." ”
When Aunt Fang looked at her, her face looked much better, "Although I haven't seen her for two years, Miss Xiao is the same as she was back then, not only is she excellent, but she can see her intentions everywhere." This was actually said to Yuan Ying, Yuan Ying was inevitably punished for standing in a class, and during the lunch break, she regained her spirits, "If she wants to punish me, she should also change to a new method, and the punishment station is not trivial to me." ”
"It's the little embroidery needle...... I don't want to touch it again. ”
Song Yansheng was helpless, "There are still a few unfinished paintings, I'll take them back to help you finish embroidering, the two of us are half a catty and eight taels anyway, and Mama can't see it." ”
"How can I like you so much, Little Liu."
"Don't, don't get so close."
Watching Xiao Changying's actions, compared with three years ago, she is more effective in her face. Now that she has returned to the school palace, she always feels that she has something else to do.
When Duan Xun arrived at Qifengtai, Concubine Yuan had just gotten up and was sitting behind the bead curtain for breakfast. The wheels of the car pressed on the velvet blanket in the hall, and there was not much movement, but it made the concubine turn around suddenly, "Ruxue, is it you?" ”
"Mother." Duan Xun lifted the curtain, revealing that amazing face, he raised his phoenix eyes and looked left and right, "Why is there no one in the hall?" ”
"Many people looked upset and sent out." The concubine was wearing plain clothes, and when she saw him coming, she raised her hand and said, "Sit down." ”
"You're early today." She wiped her hands lightly with a handkerchief and asked, "Have you had breakfast?" ”
There is a distance from the Beijing Cuishan to the Beijing Gate, which is naturally used. Duan Xun nodded, his eyes fell on a plate of hazelnut coconut cake on the table, he seemed to think of something, Jing Yun waited to wash his hands, he picked up chopsticks and clamped a piece, sweet and fragrant, it was the taste that the girl liked.
Concubine Yuan looked at him, but she was a little surprised, "I didn't see you eat these snacks before, but since I returned to Beijing, I see that you have eaten many times." I remember when you were a kid...... I don't like to eat sweet and greasy things. ”
"The concubine misremembered."
"Really?" As soon as Concubine Yuan's phoenix eyes were raised, the eyes of the mother and son were paired, and Duan Xun knew that she had another thought. Concubine Yuan looked at him for a moment, knowing that it was unlikely that he would be forced to say anything if he didn't want to say it. She snorted and picked up the spoon again.
Don't think she doesn't know, she knocked on the side and asked Yiyun. Yiyun is hesitant and just doesn't explain it. Yiyun and Jingyun are his people, so naturally they will not be honest. This craving for sweets is like a girl's hobby. Concubine Yuan really didn't understand anything when she saw this. This kid can hide it from her for a while, but he can't hide it from her for a lifetime, and he will grow up in the future.
Yuan Guifei speculated that her son had a sweetheart, and she was wondering who it was, and every once in a while, it happened to be as she wanted.
Princess Baohui held a chrysanthemum appreciation party in the palace and invited the girls of Wensi Pavilion to the banquet. In the past three years, although Queen Pan has lost her sacred heart, Princess Baohui is still very favored. The emperor doted on this daughter for no reason, and when he said pampering, he preferred to cherish. After Danmu retreated, the saint breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, he had an unexplained illness, and no one noticed it at first, but it was an ordinary headache and brain fever, and this Baohui was born at this time, and he was born with a defect in his left hand. Later, the imperial doctor found the root cause in the saint, which was caused by poisoning, and fed back to Princess Baohui. Because of this, the saint feels guilty and sorry for this newborn daughter, and has been taking it with him and pampering him all these years. is Queen Pan, who is more or less stained with the light of this daughter.
Bao Hui, it can be seen from the title that the saint loves her.
Song Yansheng does not have a very deep impression of this princess, in her previous life, Princess Baohui was very low-key silently, because she was born with a lack of left hand, she did not interact with people much, but got along well with Xiao Changying. This is not surprising, the Xiao family used to be a member of the Pan family and the Three Emperors. In addition to this, Song Yansheng remembered that this princess had always lived in the deep palace and had never married. Five years after she married Xiao Changyuan, there has been no news of Baohui's marriage.
This is very confusing, according to the development of the previous life, the third son of the emperor has gained power, the queen, and the Pan Party are even more single-handed, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the power is tilted towards the government and the opposition. As a princess, although Bao Hui has a shortage in her hands, it does not hinder her momentum and status, and it is impossible to say that she can't get married. Now that I think about it, there is only one possibility, not that she can't get married, but that she doesn't want to marry. That's where the thought comes in.
"Little Liu, what do you want to be so engrossed?"
Yuan Ying's voice pulled her back from the memories of her previous life, and she blinked, "I'm thinking about the snacks in the princess's palace." ”
“…… No, you, those two plates of almond crisp just now have entered your stomach, and you still want to eat them. ”
"I have two stomach bags in my belly." She smiled and rubbed her stomach, "Don't eat, you really plan to see chrysanthemums." ”
Yuan Ying pursed her lips, "Hey, I really don't want to come, who doesn't know that Baohui likes those elegant things. Thing, this time the chrysanthemum must inevitably have to chant poetry against it, and it is very annoying. ”
The two discussed making a corner so as not to be conspicuous, and the carriage drove past the Chongde Gate. A quarter of an hour to the east, after passing the gate of the inner court, there is the Qionghua Forest where Baohui holds a banquet.
Qionghualin is a garden in the inner court, leaning against the liquid pool, the scenery is very beautiful. Song Yansheng looked outside, "This is the first time I've been in the palace." ”
"There's nothing to look at, there are so many rules." Yuan Ying sat next to her and watched with her, because Qiong Hualin was holding a banquet, there were special palace people waiting on the side of the nearby palace road, who were responsible for greeting them, and they all stood motionless with their heads down, and when a carriage passed, they squatted down and saluted, their eyes did not move a moment, they all looked at the ground respectfully.
"There are a lot of rules, they ...... Aren't you tired? ”
"It's okay on this palace road, and it's not the height of summer. If it was during the scorching heat, the sun was baking, and there was no shade to block the South Gate Palace Road, and the palace people who were in charge of the guidance were sweating profusely and stood like this, not even having to drink saliva, and they would only be on duty once at noon. Yuan Ying sighed, "If you want to say that the most comfortable place in this palace is Qi Fengtai, my aunt and her palace have few things to do, and people are easy to get along with, so if you want to be an errand in it, it is the easiest errand." ”
The one in Qi Fengtai is not Yuan Guifei, the mother concubine of the Sixth Highness.
Song Yan let out a "hmm", and then the carriage suddenly stopped, and a cold and knife-like sound came from outside the car, which sounded very familiar. She didn't have time to lower the curtain of the car, and when she looked up, she was meeting the eyes of a black-armored man on the road outside.
She subconsciously frowned, it was Xiao Changyuan!
This person made a contribution to building a dam in Lin'an Mansion three years ago for disaster relief, although Pan Dang was convicted and the third son of the emperor was punished, the Xiao family was inevitably impacted, so he hid for a while. The saint has a clear reward, and he has been hanging the Xiao family for so long, in the end, he took care of the merits of the old general Xiao who fought in the north many years ago, Emperor Mingde washed the south of the Yangtze River three years ago, and thoroughly cleaned up many forces, and now the old general is not good, and he can't let the old ministers chill their hearts, so they made a will, and proposed Xiao Changyuan to join the Yulin Army, as a guard for the forbidden army, and was assigned to the Xuande Gate battalion to be responsible for the security of this part of the palace.
The twelve guards of the forbidden army in the palace are the personal soldiers of the saint, and they have a good chance of being in front of the emperor.
Song Yansheng looked at Xiao Changyuan coldly. This person is very tall, wearing the black armor of the guards of the forbidden army, and his temperament is as cold as a sharp sword out of the sheath, just looking at it makes people shudder. She hadn't seen Xiao Changyuan for a long time, but the discomfort with this person still existed. She looked straight into the dark eyes that stared straight at her, becoming more and more uncomfortable, and as soon as she let go of her hand, she quickly lowered the curtain.
Out of sight is out of sight.
Yuan Ying handed over the jade plate inside, Xiao Changyuan glanced at it, and retreated to the side.
The carriage and horses began to walk again.
"This eldest prince Xiao is becoming more and more terrifying, and the indescribable feeling is like a cold weapon, which makes my hands densely covered with goosebumps."
Yuan Ying rubbed her arms, looked at her again and said, "This person...... I've been staring at you just now. ”
"Maybe I haven't seen you in a long time, but I'm wondering who I am." Song Yan snorted, the person had already left her, she exhaled a long breath, and said next to Yuan Ying, "Ah Ying, I really don't like to see this person." ”
"I don't like it either, the Xiao family, there are no good people."
