Chapter 9: The Prince
Chapter 9: The Prince
"Ah...... Well. "Luo Xiaoran is holding the shelf of 'The Queen Mother is your mother'.
After looking at Murong Jue's reaction, his eyebrows were still gentle, but he had no intention of getting close to Luo Xiaoran, and the distance was just right: "The minister retreats." β
"Retreat...... Hey, no......" Luo Xiaoran almost bit the tip of his tongue, and jumped with a loving and peaceful smile, "Go ahead." β
After finishing speaking, Luo Xiaoran secretly figured out Murong Jue's reaction, and did not have any doubts or puzzles, probably because he didn't know much about this woman who had only been his 'old lady' for a day. Seeing Murong Jue's back walking away, Luo Xiaoran sighed with some emotion, "Such a good warm man, why is it not the emperor's life." β
Instantly, a sharp cry sounded behind him: "Mother! β
"......" Luo Xiaoran smiled and scratched his sideburns with his nails: "I'm talking nonsense, I'm talking nonsense." β
And the little girl's face was already a look of 'how could I have such a master'.
Later, the legendary Imperial Garden and Taiye Pool didn't come to fruition, not because he killed a prince halfway and still had a face that was completely Luo Xiaoran's type, but his words were completely fulfilled.
In ancient times, summer was not ordinary, and she was already sweating after walking outside.
In ancient times, when there was no air conditioning or fan, they could only rely on artificial fans or ice cubes to cool down. However, Emperor Daxing was stopping, and in order to prevent the corpse from decomposing prematurely and stinking, the ice stored in the ice cellar was placed in the side hall.
In order not to suffer from heat stroke, Luo Xiaoran had to return to the side hall to continue the vigilance.
Mu Zhong, the former crown prince who he met outside, knelt behind Luo Xiaoran, and could vaguely hear the chattering voice of the crown princess, asking with concern, Luo Xiaoran understood a little, it seemed that the former prince had committed something before the death of the first emperor and was confined to the East Palace, and even the crown princess was not allowed to enter.
Today is the day they meet for the first time in a long time.
Mu Zhong responded a few words in a shallow voice, and saw that the princess was talking more and more excessively, and her words became more and more radical, and finally cut off the princess's nagging with one sentence: "My third brother and I are brothers and sisters, so how can we have grievances." Now that my father is gone, the third brother asked me to go out of the palace and do my son's duty. β
The crown princess's calm tone instantly became intense: "You treat him as a sibling, he may not regard His Royal Highness as a sibling!" The death of my father was strange, and only Mu was present at the timeβ"
"Shu'er!" Mu Zhong interrupted her coldly and said in a sullen manner: "The dead are respected, don't talk nonsense!" β
"Your Royal Highness......" The crown princess was stunned, she didn't cry anymore, she didn't make trouble, and after a while, she heard her commanding to her personal maid: "The palace is unwell, go back." β
"Yes."
The little palace maid should go down.
After the crown princess left, the female relatives in the side hall were silent and even cried, leaving only Luo Xiaoran humming and chirping to cope with the cry.
She cried while sorting out her thoughts in her head, according to her preliminary understanding, Emperor Daxing had a total of three sons and one daughter. Regardless of the crown prince, the second prince Anshan Wang is sick, and he recuperates in the Nanshan Palace all the year round, and is in a half-dead state, and the old emperor will come to the capital to mourn when he dies. The third prince is the former Qin King and the current emperor, and from that night, you can get a glimpse of the feelings for Emperor Daxing, which is really average, otherwise how could the King of Qin, who should be in the Yanshui fiefdom of 108,000 miles in the capital city, happen to appear in the palace?
It can be seen that there is a cat in it, and the old emperor is also a little ...... It's too inferior, although it is collectively referred to as a sudden illness and sudden death.
The only princess had some mental problems, and she didn't come to the green lantern ancient Buddha in the royal temple.
Even the children don't care much about their fathers, let alone the women after those one-night stands. There are a lot of beauties, and the level of concubines is similar to that of the Western Han Dynasty that Luo Xiaoran is familiar with, and the inferior concubines such as lovers, long envoys, and young envoys account for almost half of the side hall. There are really few people with good status to Zhaoyi and Jieyu, except for Luo Xiaoran, the impostor queen mother, there is only one concubine left, living in the Gui Palace and isolated.
I heard my aunt say that I came here once, but it was also because my health was not very good, so I was not suitable to attend this kind of scene.
However, the people in this house are not in good health...... Quite a lot.
Luo Xiaoran doesn't watch costume dramas very much, and she can't be interested in time-traveling novels, and history is even weaker, and the source of information about the so-called rules in the court is her roommate Ye Fan, Ye Fan is almost a costume control, no matter how thunderous, embarrassing, and unrealistic, as long as she wears ancient costumes and plays an ancient, she can watch all the episodes without falling or jumping for a second.
As a result, Luo Xiaoran was also a little touched, and he stayed away from Xiao Jiujiu, a woman in the palace.
She doesn't look for trouble, but trouble finds itself at the door.
One morning, Luo Xiaoran got up from the bed and heard the palace maids and eunuchs outside the door arguing in whispers, and she didn't take her as the queen mother who was sleeping back in her eyes at all.
Luo Xiaoran wiped her face, she settled in Yong'an Palace for a few days, and saw clearly that there were more than a dozen palace people in this palace, except for Zi Yuan, who was more obedient, others didn't treat her as a master at all, and she didn't know when she would be able to sneak out, it was time to collect their bones. Luo Xiaoran put on a coat on his body, and shouted outside the door: "What are you shouting outside, you have something to say when you come in!" β
Sure enough, it was quiet outside for a few seconds, and there were several uneven responses.
The door was pushed open from the outside, and the reason for the weight of the door was a loud creak.
Ten palace people before and after, except for a few familiar people who serve her in front of her on weekdays, the others have never even seen each other, at this time more than a dozen people knelt in front of her in rows, hanging their heads and not daring to say a word, and she listened to the high-spirited argument just now like two groups of people.
"Zi Kite, what's the matter with you?"
Maybe Luo Xiaoran's tone was too bad, Zi Yuan's kneeling figure trembled slightly, and replied softly, "The slave listened to what the little sixth son on duty last night said......
Luo Xiaoran stroked his forehead, "Then you can tell the little sixth son." β
There was only an eerie silence, and no one answered.
"Could it be that Xiao Liuzi is not here, and you can't even reply to say something? In this case, what is the use of the palace raising you with a lot of money! Luo Xiaoran swept over the palace people kneeling on the ground with a solemn face, and his words were harsh.
"Slave and maid are guilty of death! Mother's Atonement! β
"Minions are capital offenses! Mother's Atonement! β
The master, who has always cared about things in the palace, suddenly became angry, and frightened a group of palace people into quickly kowtowing and asking for guilt. Luo Xiaoran had a straight face, but she was happy in her heart, as the saying goes, the new official took office with three fires, although her fire came a little late, it was not completely ineffective.
At this time, a palace maid opened her mouth without being humble or arrogant, and her voice was clear, "Hui Niangniang, Xiao Liuzi is not in the palace now." β
Luo Xiaoran slowly fell his gaze on the palace maid who had just replied, "What's your name?" β
"Hui Niangniang, slave maid Yuanxiang."
She replied respectfully, without the humility of those palace people, but looked downcast.
"You get up and talk back."
"Yes." Yuan Xiang got up, the blue palace costume was added, the hair was meticulously combed in a bun with cyan color, and there was a jade grate with a whole body of emerald buried in the ink-like hair, and there were no other hair accessories. She doesn't have Su Qingce's stunning face, but she has a temperament that Su Qingce doesn't have, like a quiet orchid in the empty valley, quietly spitting fragrant.
The eyebrows and eyes are gently drooping, and the soft corners of the mouth are pursed into a line, which looks a little more affinity.
