Chapter 21: Behind Closed Doors
......
Feng Guo's high society life is very elegant, Yu Xi looked at the high-walled courtyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion and the vermilion-painted gate, and actually remembered her favorite cross talk master in her previous life, Mr. Liu Baorui's "Praise Residence".
"The mountains and rocks are towering, and the water is flowing. There are towers and palaces, there are pavilions of water pavilions below, and the left and right are the corners of climbing mountains, and the verandah is overhanded. The jade is inlaid with copper, the flower stone is the road, the mountain tiger climbs the wall, and the vine radish surrounds the tree. The bamboo revetment of the jade belt bridge, the clear water of the crescent river is sinking, boundless, just like the crystal world, there is the wind of the fairy mansion. ”
She hadn't been to the Prime Minister's Mansion, but she just looked outside, and she could think of the situation inside. I'm afraid this is not the Jia Mansion in "Dream of Red Mansions". Yu Xi thought to himself.
Yu Xi and Jingque lingered around the Xiangfu for a long time, and the nursing home outside the door ignored them at first, seeing the two walking around and dangling in front of them, they had to step forward to ask.
"This young lady, this is the Prime Minister's Mansion, do you have anything to do?" The nursing home saw that Yu Xi was dressed exquisitely, thinking that it was a young lady from a large family, and her words were quite polite.
Yu Xi was inconvenient to say that he recognized his father, so he had to say: "I have something to find the prime minister of your palace." ”
Several nurses were suspicious: What would a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl have to do to find her grandfather?
"Xiangye is busy with official business, and he doesn't see guests easily, if you have anything I can convey on my behalf." The nurses were very polite, but they didn't mean to let Yu Xi in.
Yu Xi's mind was spinning rapidly, and he just wanted to find an excuse to go to the mansion first.
was circling around the door, and several palanquin drivers walked out carrying two gorgeous soft sedan chairs. The aroma is a meter away, and it can be smoked over the head and face.
"See the eldest miss, see the second miss." The nurses hurriedly saluted. They are the father's daughters, Yu Xi thought, flashing aside and letting the sedan chair drivers go first.
Who knew that the sedan chair had taken a few steps and stopped halfway.
"Who are you?" A rather delicate female voice in the sedan chair asked, I don't know if it was the eldest lady or the second lady.
Yu Xi saw that she didn't get out of the sedan chair, and her tone was also very polite. only replied: "I have something to find the prime minister." ”
I don't say who I am.
"Daddy is busy, he won't see you, you can go back."
The female voice said again, clearly trying to drive her away.
Yu Xi was not annoyed, but said: "Let someone report, if the palace prime minister is willing to see me, I will go in." If I don't want to see it, I'll go. ”
"Hehe," a mocking laugh came from the sedan chair, "My father is the face of a country, can anyone see him?" ”
Through the gorgeous sedan curtains, you can hear her arrogance.
"Didn't you hear what your sister said? Why are you stunned, just beat it away! The hostess of the other sedan chair also spoke.
It's really a good shelf. Yu Xi thought to herself, but she didn't want to tear her face when she first arrived.
"Don't deceive people too much, tell you, my young lady ......" Jingque can't see others bullying her young lady, so she has to stand up for her.
Yu Xi bumped the magpie with her elbow and made her silence.
I can't see the main master, I don't know what the main attitude is towards her, a daughter who came out of thin air, Yu Xi doesn't want unrelated people to know what she means.
"Let's go." She said, pulling the magpie and leaving.
It doesn't seem to be going to work to get people informed, so I'll have to think of something else.
Thinking of the exhaustion of so many days, and the result that he couldn't even see anyone, he was so anxious that he stomped his feet on the way back.
Yu Xi was calmer, and teased her while walking: "It's that I can't see my father, and it's not you, what are you anxious about." ”
"Of course I'm in a hurry, Miss risked her life to come to Beijing to recognize her father, but as a result, I couldn't even see a person." The more I thought about it, the more aggrieved I became, and the magpie's eyes began to fill with water vapor.
Yu Xi saw her thinking about herself like this, and helped her shoulder and said, "Don't worry, get up early tomorrow, let's wait for the rabbit at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion." ”
"Waiting for the rabbit? What do you mean? I don't know if Fengguo doesn't have this idiom, and the magpie is puzzled.
Yu Xi had no choice but to explain to her.
The prime minister of the palace is an important minister of the country, and he must go to the morning court every day, so it is a big deal to wait for him to come back tomorrow at the gate of the prime minister's mansion.
"However, the two young ladies of the Prime Minister's Mansion have this attitude, and the Prime Minister of the Palace is not necessarily a good match." The magpie spoke her guess.
Yu Xi is a top person, how could he not think of this layer. But she came back in time, and she had feelings with her mother because her mother had raised her for many years, and she was admired by others. As for the father of the Prime Minister Palace...... It doesn't matter if you get along well or not, whether you like her or not.
As long as you admit it and avenge your mother, you will be a big step forward.
"It's okay, there's got to be a process." Yu Xi soothed the frightened magpie.
