Chapter Thirty-Seven: Falling Red Pa
According to the rules, this Fang Luo Hongbai Pa waited for a while, but when she wanted to meet the Empress Dowager of Western Qin, she would personally see and accept it to the old man.
Seeing that Mama Zhao put away the Luohongpa, Mei Xiyuan looked at the pot of wine on the table with a pair of confused eyes. I saw her slowly get up and walk over, pour a cup, pick it up and look at it for a while, and then drink it down.
Obviously, he was born to dislike this kind of thing the most, but at this moment, he showed a wry smile of heartbreak.
"Princess......" Mama Zhao looked at her appearance at this time and wanted to persuade her, but the words came to her mouth and swallowed again, and she felt even more uncomfortable standing aside.
In the Yunshui Pavilion of the Qin Palace, the clouds on the clothes were lying quietly on the bed and fell asleep.
It seemed that every time she went to the Qin Palace, she was always scarred, and at this time, Xuanyuan Han sat on the edge of her couch and stared at her with a worried and self-reproachful face.
Looking at him, he suddenly said to himself on the sickbed, "Why do you have to protect him so desperately, is he really Wei Mingxuan?" Is he really that important to you? Do you know if the king's sword is half a minute faster......"
He was still scared, but when he said this, he paused for a long time, and then continued after a while, "This king knows that he is the person you like, how can you really kill him, this king is just very angry...... Very angry."
However, what is he angry about? Qi: Why didn't he appear in her life before Wei Mingxuan? Why didn't she understand his mind at all now? Angry that another man hugged her into his arms? Or was he angry that he didn't have the courage to face that man, was it Wei Mingxuan who was muttering in her mouth in a coma with a high fever?
He did not have the courage because he was afraid.
He was afraid that the answer would be the kind he didn't want. Now, at least he can get along with her as if he doesn't know what to do. If he knew that it was Wei Mingxuan, then how could he continue to turn a blind eye and ignore it?!
"Your Highness, the imperial doctor said that the girl is fine, Your Highness should rest for a while" Cheng Liang walked in and saw the master so distressed, and said with concern.
Seeing that the master was indifferent, he stubbornly continued to persuade, "Your Highness has been watching the girl like this all night, and I will go to the palace with the princess to thank you later."
Xuanyuan Han heard Cheng Liang say "Princess Niangniang", and then his eyes blinked slightly, as if he had just remembered that there was already a princess in the Qin Palace.
Cheng Liang saw that he was already moved, and then cautiously reminded and hinted, "Your Highness, yesterday's wedding was ...... The princess has been waiting for you all night. There is also the matter of personal welcome, yesterday it was Princess Yue who invited the queen to come......" Before Cheng Liang finished speaking, he saw Xuanyuan Han's cold and angry eyes, so he quietly closed his voice.
Cheng Liang was still muttering to himself, "Yesterday was obviously the big day of the master's wedding, but he didn't even wear a wedding dress, it seems that he really didn't take this marriage seriously, and he was so clever that the palace ordered someone to make the wedding clothes."
Xuanyuan Han turned around and tucked the quilt on the clothes and looked at her intently again, fortunately, the medical skills and medicinal materials of the imperial physician of the palace were considered to be of the highest quality, and her face had already improved a little. At this time, he seemed to be relieved, slowly got up and went out, and when he walked to the door, he coldly threw a sentence to Cheng Liang, "Tell Mama Zhang to come and take care of her"
"Yes" Cheng Liang took the order, and then looked back at the sleeping clothes on the couch Shangyun with a helpless expression.
He thought that the master would not know how long the master would be so ambiguous about this ugly girl. muttered "Since you like it, why don't you say it"
In the Chenghua Hall of the Qin Palace, Xuanyuan Han leaned on the couch next to the table and squinted for a while, when Cheng Liang, who was guarding outside the hall, hurriedly came in and woke up, "Your Highness, the princess is here."
Xuanyuan Han listened to his eyes and sat up gently, only to see Mei Xiyuan slowly walking into the main hall with elegant steps, a graceful and luxurious body, showing the momentum of the hostess of the Qin Palace.
"The concubine sees His Royal Highness, when did His Highness return to the house, the concubine waited for His Highness all night last night" Mei Xiyuan bowed with a smile on her face as soon as she came to the main hall in front of Xuanyuan Han.
"Yesterday's matter..."Xuanyuan Han looked serious in the past and wanted to explain yesterday's matter a little, after all, she was the princess of Dongning Kingdom, not the daughter of an ordinary nobleman in Western Qin, and some polite words still had to be said by himself, after all, he did have a response to this marriage first.
Who knew that Mei Xiyuan hurriedly grabbed the words, "Your Highness doesn't have to explain to your concubines. The concubine knew that His Royal Highness was the King of Western Qin, the only prince of Western Qin, and the only younger brother of the emperor. Therefore, the emperor helped the emperor to manage all opportunities for the people of Western Qin, and the concubines should understand and fully support them. The concubine only hopes that His Royal Highness will also pay attention to taking care of his body in his busy schedule."
This woman was so ...... about yesterday's events, Xuanyuan Han was thinking about it, and Mei Xiyuan said again, "Your Highness, the hour is not early, and the concubine should accompany Her Highness to the palace to ask the Queen Mother for her gratitude."
So, the two of them took a luxury car to the direction of the palace, and Xuanyuan Han sat upright as in the past and closed his eyes to recuperate.
It was the first time that Mei Xiyuan had leaned so close to her husband, and sitting beside him at this moment, she carefully observed this noble, excellent and mysterious man to her.
It turned out that he was a hundred times more handsome and handsome than the heroic and young and promising King of Western Qin and Qin that he had heard in Dongning Kingdom, especially when he was quiet now, he was like a god, and he couldn't be offended.
Mei Xiyuan couldn't help but feel happy in her heart, she could marry such an excellent man in the world in this life, and she would have no regrets in her life. And in the future, she will do her best to cultivate a relationship with him, give birth to children for him, and be a loving couple.
Soon, the car arrived at the gate of the Western Qin Palace.
Mei Xiyuan saw the Xiqin Palace for the first time, but she didn't expect that the Xiqin Palace was a few meters above the ground, as if it was condescending and extraordinary.
Although the Western Qin Imperial Palace is not as large as the Dongning Imperial Palace, the construction layout and decoration are luxurious, but everywhere it shows a broad and profound Central Plains magnificent atmosphere, which makes people awe-inspired.
Soon, she followed Xuanyuan Han to the palace of the Queen Mother-Yong'an Palace.
At this time, the queen mother with a kind and kind face in the palace and the queen with a graceful and luxurious body, as well as other palace concubines, nobles, and important women of the court, can be said to have what they should have.
Knowing that today, the King of Qin would personally bring the newlyweds' family Princess Qin to meet Xie En, and everyone had already made an appointment to wait here early, gathering to see the peerless demeanor of the princess of the highest and noble King Qin of the Western Qin Kingdom.
As soon as Xuanyuan Han entered the door, he saluted and said, "The son of the retainer asks the queen mother to be safe, and the imperial sister-in-law is blessed."
Mei Xiyuan also followed, "The concubine asks the queen mother, and the imperial sister-in-law is blessed"
"Hurry up and let the mourning family take a good look at this Dongning great beauty, come and give a seat," the queen mother said with a happy face, reaching over and grabbing Mei Xiyuan's slender jade hands, and the queen followed with a smile on her chin.
As soon as the two of them took their seats, all the concubines, nobles, and wives present all stood up and saluted respectfully, "Please say hello to His Royal Highness the King of Qin, and the princess of Qin is blessed."
When Mei Xiyuan saw it, she immediately felt that the identity of the person she married was not ordinarily noble, and she suddenly showed a proud face.
"King Qin, your mother and concubine left early, and now the great beauty of Dongning that the Mourning family and the queen promised you can still make you satisfied?" The Queen Mother looked at Xuanyuan Han with a kind face and said.
Mei Xiyuan listened to the Queen Mother's question and cast a curious eye at him, eager to know King Qin's attitude towards her. However, I saw that Xuanyuan Han still replied with a serious face, "The son and the queen thank the mother for their care, and the imperial sister-in-law is bothered."
"Although you are now in an important position in the country, and the emperor has entrusted you with important tasks, but you can't be wronged by this princess," the Queen Mother continued to say as if reminded.
King Qin's wedding did not personally welcome the newlyweds into the door, and the queen did not dare to hide such a major event from the queen mother. But the Queen Mother also has to take care of the safety of Sheji, although her words are not clear, but they are also a reminder to King Qin, not to easily snub Princess Dongning.
"Erchen remember the teachings of the queen mother," Xuanyuan Han replied in his usual cold tone.
At this moment, the old lady walked to the Queen Mother with a carved square wooden plate in her hand, and the highlight of today's party was placed on the wooden plate.
Luohong is the blood of virginity, the blood of a woman's first cave room, representing a woman's most precious chastity. Those who do not fall red in the cave house will be regarded as unchaste and unclean, and will be ridiculed and looked down upon, unable to hold their heads up for the rest of their lives, and will be affected by their lives.
The red and white handkerchief is a necessary item for the round room of the cave room and candle night, which is used to check whether the newlyweds are complete.
At this time, Xuanyuan Han's eyes were stunned and he was about to say something, but he was robbed by the old lady and said, "This is the newcomer's red and white handkerchief, please check it out with the Queen Mother."
Seeing this, the Queen Mother smiled and said, "The princess of Dongning Kingdom is noble, ice muscles and jade bones, dignified and virtuous, and the mourning family believes that she is ice clear and jade." It's just that this is an old rule that has been passed down from generation to generation by the ancestors, so the mourning family still has to go through this scene, so as not to be true in the future."
After speaking, he stretched out his hand and picked up the white and flawless sacred red handkerchief, and a dazzling red appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
Everyone was stunned, and they all looked at Xuanyuan Han and Mei Xiyuan. Mei Xiyuan made a shy and indescribable posture, bowed her head and sat quietly.
And when everyone's eyes stopped focusing on the two of them a moment later, she looked at Xuanyuan Han, who was sitting beside her.
"I can't believe that His Royal Highness King Qin, such an ascetic male god will also be close to women"
"He really spoiled this exotic princess, that is His Royal Highness the King of Qin who is a 10,000-year-old iceberg!"
"Over the years, how many ministers in the court and central government want to stuff their young lady into the palace of King Qin, even if it is good to get a side concubine, but King Qin is as unintentional as an immortal."
"Could it be that this Princess Yongle really melted the big iceberg of His Royal Highness King Qin with the appearance of captivating the country and the city. It seems that this princess of Dongning is really not simple."
"If you want me to say, this man is a hidden wolf, and the surface is just a disguise."
......
Suddenly, everyone in the hall turned their heads and talked about it.
When the Queen Mother saw this scene, she and the Queen exchanged glances, and seemed to be very surprised.
"King Qin, since you are in love, the flounder is deeply in love, and now you have officially completed the house and become a husband and wife, then you will do your best to open up the branches for the Xuanyuan royal family in the future" The Queen Mother happily admonished the newlyweds.
And Xuanyuan Han was confused at this time, his face was full of solemnity and seriousness, and he wondered what was going on with this red pa. It seems that he did not listen carefully to the meaningful admonition of the Queen Mother.
The matter of inviting An Shane is completed at this time, just as the so-called three women in one play, not to mention that in this group of women who are naturally fond of making waves, he has already heard enough of the gossip of these people.
At this time, Xuanyuan Han got up and said, "Queen Mother, the sons and daughters still have official business to do, so they will retire first, and come back to greet the Queen Mother that day."
Mei Xiyuan saw Xuanyuan Han get up, followed by him, and also got up and said, "The concubine will come back another day to greet the queen mother."
"King Qin is hard, watch out for your body. Now that there is a princess, the princess will have to take more care of it in the future," the queen mother said with concern.
"Son-in-law thanks to the mother's care"
"Concubines follow the teachings of their mothers"
After speaking, the two walked out of Yong'an Palace, leaving only a hall of surprised women chattering behind them.
"Your Highness, Your Highness and other concubines" Mei Xiyuan hurriedly chased after her with extremely fast steps.
"What the hell is going on with the red handkerchief?"
......
