Chapter 388: Ming Chunshui (18)
Chu Huotian stood up, took her hand, the door of the imperial study was slowly opened by the palace people, in front of him was a heavy palace, the flat and wide vestibule was magnificent, and the heavy buildings on both sides were full of royal majesty.
The Imperial Study stands on top of ninety-nine steps, and at the bottom is a high platform made of a huge white marble foundation. He came out arm in arm with her, pointed to the majestic palace in front of him, and said with a smile: "I am the emperor, what can I do if the world is disapproved?" I was the prince who was excluded from others, and I had to marry the Zhao family in order to settle down, and for more than ten years, she and I have been mostly affectionate. And the Liu family, she was blue-eyed and willing to be a concubine, which was also a great help to me. But these are not the feelings of men and women. ”
He paused, turned around, the bright yellow dragon robe sparkled in the skylight, the light in his eyes was like the brightest and proudest star, looked at her, and continued: "I always thought that this life is probably like this, there is a wife and a concubine, the only purpose is to strive to become the person on that person, only step by step to that position, I feel that this life is worth it." However, I met you. That night, I could have let you go, but I wondered if I could try to keep you by my side, even if I did something wrong, as long as you were by my side, one day, you would know how good I was for you. ”
Ouyang Zhen was sad in his heart, half-hidden, and his long eyebrows were slightly raised, forming an extremely lingering and sympathetic arc: "The concubine hated the emperor, and the concubine only thought about how to survive when the country was ruined, and she hated the emperor and was afraid of the emperor. The concubine has been in the palace for three years, and she has seen and heard of the dirty palace secrets, this is a very ladylike concubine, doesn't the emperor think that a scheming woman like a concubine is by his side, and he must be guarded against? ”
Chu Huotian pulled down her long sleeves and stared at her face. Tears welled up on her face, but she still couldn't take away her original stunning appearance.
He snorted slightly, an obvious sword wound on the rough palm, if he rolled up his sleeves, there might be more scars inside, more than ten years of wind, frost, snow and rain, what was left to him was such a scar, he lost a lot, and he gained a lot.
He looked at her white hands as white as snow powder, covering them little by little, and there was a trace of the most sarcastic smile on her handsome and sculpture-like face: "Scheming? If it weren't for my deep scheming, how could I reign in the world today? You'er, you and I are both the same people, so we're destined to be together. ”
He raised his eyes to see hers, and no longer allowed her to escape: "I often think about what kind of man a person like you should be. If you are like Zixuan, you can only be a good housewife, and if you are like Zhao Qingling, you can only be a beautiful woman with excellent talents. However, I have the world. You should be the woman who stands side by side with me. You have a furrow in your chest, you have the world in your heart, you are good at dancing with long sleeves, and you are well measured. I believe that you are more suitable for this harem, this Chu country! ”
Ouyang Zhen looked at him in a daze for a long time, and the undeniable look in his eyes was as dazzling as his most noble identity.
Ouyang Zhen suddenly smiled and said: "Okay, the concubine and the emperor are side by side in the world!" That smile, how many years and smoke-filled roads have passed, just like a flower blooming in front of him.
……
That day has finally come.
Ouyang Zhen got up after the rooster crowed, first bathed and changed clothes, applied flower ointment, and bathed in fragrant flower soup. Then there is a set of prepared palace clothes, first underwear, middle single, and then layers of intricate skirts, lined with ......
Layers of dressing, Wan Hui and several old grandmothers were silently and nervously dressing for her, and the sky was still cloudy, and the murmur of insects and mosquitoes could still be heard.
There is no room for error in every step, and more than a dozen palace maids are lined up outside, carrying the dresses, handkerchiefs, water, and jade combs that need to be used...... When it was time to use it, there was a soft call from inside, and the palace maid bowed in, and the rest waited motionless outside.
Everyone held their breath, and the entire inner sanctum could be heard of pins falling.
Ouyang Zhen quietly watched five or six old ladies put on the most complicated palace clothes for her, the sky gradually brightened, and no one in the entire quiet hall dared to speak easily, and the last coat was put on, and the palace people brought a huge bronze mirror.
She stared at it, and the bright red embroidered four-phoenix group embroidered pleated palace skirt, which was slightly lighter than the big red, bloomed downwards like the petals of the most beautiful red peony, and it became more and more obvious that her waist was not winning.
The big skirt is unfolded, a phoenix made of various colored gemstones, pearls and gold threads has been coiled and meandered from the chest, and the other three are either tumbling or playful, from the two waists, the skirt hem extends upward, vaguely showing a flattering trend. Next to it are auspicious clouds coiling, and the four phoenixes have different postures and are lifelike.
She glanced back and forth, and sure enough, the most complicated clothes could bring out the noble momentum.
Then she combed her hair, first combed her long black hair with shavings water, and then straightened it over and over again with a transparent floral balm, and then coiled her hair up with the most skillful female palace in the palace.
As if it is the most sacred ceremony, the long knee-length long hair is tied up to the knees, it is the most gorgeous and complex flying phoenix bun in the Chu Palace, a golden phoenix hairpin is buried in front of the crest, and the huge Nanzhu hangs down on her smooth forehead, the pearl is colorful, and her beautiful eyes are looking forward to flowing, like the Tsinghua River between heaven and earth.
The green silk that can be seen is fixed and stacked layer by layer, such as the two wings of the phoenix, and the female officer inserts six branches on both sides of the cat's eye green flying phoenix hairpin, such as the wings of the phoenix vibrating from a distance.
The green silk is pressed with a total of 12 flying phoenix hairpins, and the whole headdress becomes half, and the rest of the places are gently tied up with gold wire mesh and pearls, and the gold wire is as thin as a hair, and the pearls are finely embellished in it, which is simply as ingenious as heaven.
"Makeup—" The female palace called out softly. Five or six palace maids hurriedly stepped forward with lacquer plates, evenly putting on makeup, Ouyang Zhen closed his eyes and let the female official's gentle hand smear on his face.
After half an hour, the female officer said softly: "Makeup - the auspicious time has arrived!" ”
Ouyang Zhen stared at the bronze mirror, and an incomparably noble palace concubine appeared in the bronze mirror. Ruyu's complexion, the long willow eyebrows turned into flying phoenix eyebrows, and a faint flush hit the tips of the eyes, gently blending away, like a touch of morning glow staying in the corners of the eyes.
Enchanting and intense, with a mysterious and strange atmosphere.
There is also a touch of red on the cheeks from the bottom up, hooking the corners of the eyes, even if it is light, it cannot be ignored. The bright red kotan on the plump cherry mouth plumped her lips perfectly.
The cold face was smeared by this heavy makeup, which changed the gentleness of the past, and revealed the mystery and solemnity of the imperial concubine in the quiet.
"Niangniang—" The lady in charge of applying makeup called with some caution.
Ouyang Zhen suddenly smiled, and the grace of Gu Pan made the palace maids on the side look straight, and no matter how many beauties she had seen, she didn't have one-ten-thousandth of the look of the Huaguo lady in front of her.
The breathtaking dignity seems to be innate, obviously gentle as spring water, but the majesty between the eyebrows and eyes makes people shudder in their hearts.
"Very good!" She said softly. Stretched out his hand and took the female officer's arm respectfully outstretched.
Wan Hui knelt on the ground, unable to cry for a long time. There was no sorrow in that cry, only endless joy. The female officials on both sides knew that Ouyang Zhen was once a concubine who had lost the country, but now he was a noble person in the Chu Palace, and he was the first person in the emperor's heart, so they couldn't help but sigh when they thought about it.
"Auntie, stop crying." Ouyang Zhen looked directly at the winding palace path in front of him, and said softly and resolutely, just like the sun out of the Hua Palace, the iron armor on both sides, the crying of the palace people lingered in his ears, the times were different from the past, but the belief as hard as iron still did not waver.
She moved lightly, every step was like a ruler, and her posture was thousands, and the jade pendants all over her body jingled, making a pleasant sound. The first rays of light in the morning are faintly visible.
She smiled, and the little cinnabar on her forehead became more and more bewitching.
……
"The emperor has arrived—" Outside the palace gate, a raised voice shouted from the chamberlain. Ouyang Zhen was stunned, and the palace people in the palace were also stunned.
Before he came back to his senses, a bright yellow had already come back and walked over. The long body is cultivated, the five-clawed golden dragon on the bright yellow gown is shining and scorching, with the majesty of the emperor, wearing twelve jade crowns, he can't see the expression on his face clearly, and only feels that he has a dignified momentum like Mount Tai around him.
Ouyang Zhenfeng's eyebrows were raised and he looked away. The female officer wanted to kneel, but she let go of the female officer's hand and walked over slowly, the long phoenix tail winding and dragging away, and she stood side by side with him.
In the shaking of the bead curtain, his god-like face loomed. He didn't move, only stretched out her hand, without hesitation, and as if after thousands of considerations, her hand slowly stretched out to him.
All four fingers are covered with gold finger cuffs inlaid with red and green gemstones, and her hands are stunningly beautiful.
Chu Huo Tianyi grasped it and slowly led her to step on the dragon chariot. His aura is all around him, calm and peaceful. The palace people below seemed to wake up, and knelt down in the wind.
"My beloved concubine, are you ready?" He asked with a sudden smile, his tone full of pride and appreciation.
Ouyang Zhen raised her eyebrows, and there was strong confidence and pride between her eyebrows and eyes, as if in an instant, the whole world of Fangfei would open up for her.
"The concubine is ready." She turned her head proudly, on the long and magnificent palace road in front of her, with him by her side, why was she afraid of wind and rain?!
The red sun in the sky finally broke through the clouds, and the golden light suddenly shone on this golden dragon's chariot, like the most sacred light in the sky to pray for them.
"The golden whip opens! ——" The palace people's long and distant shouts rippled out, one by one, alerting the heavens and the earth and the ghosts.
The golden bells on the dragon chariot jingle, crisp and pleasant, and go with the wind......
She snuggled up to him, looking at the golden paved road, the scenes of the past passed by quickly, and finally fell silent in the bottom of her eyes, and she could no longer be shocked by the wind and waves.
Mrs. Hua Guo - she smiled slightly in her heart, it was okay, he always knew his heart best, so he would go down with him with this former country and home......
It's getting closer...... In the distance, the ministers and officials in the Jinluan Hall knelt on the ground, and the whole square was very solemn.
Violently, as if awakened by the wind, everything revived in an instant.
"Long live the emperor, long live long live—"
"Niang Chitose, Chitose Chitose-"
He smiled at each other, and finally took the other party's hand, slowly stepped off the dragon chariot, and walked on the road of ten thousand people's attention......
