Chapter Forty-Nine: This Is True
The winter nights were very cold, and the cold wind accompanied by the darkness of the night raged the entire imperial capital, including the imperial city, of course.
Concubine Da is a person who likes to be quiet, so there are not many maids and maids in her bedroom, but those who stay are all knowledgeable and very caring and powerful, of course, there are many foreign slaves and maids brought by her from her hometown!
At this moment, the moon has hung high, and the emperor has spent the night at the queen's place today, but the concubine's bedroom is still flickering by candlelight, which is very quiet and beautiful.
I saw that above the spacious hall, a light smoke rose in a four-legged green furnace, bringing a trace of warmth, Concubine Da was afraid of the cold, so she had put on the fox fur early before the wax moon, and the white fox fur on the shoulder covered the woman's chin, leaving only a red cherry lips, and when the candlelight flickered, it looked different kind of enchanting.
"Qi'er will stay in the palace today!" Seeing that the Seventh Prince came so late, Concubine Da guessed in her heart that something must be wrong, so she opened her mouth first and asked Yuzi Sang Chenyi to stay and talk about the troubles, and she, a mother, could come up with an idea for him!
"Mother! A few days ago, I received a small object in the Erchen Mansion, and I thought of my mother and sent it over! Zisang Chenyi was dressed in a white dress, the cuffs and the edge of the neckline were embroidered with golden threads, the black ink hair was neatly tied, the two handsome eyebrows were deep eyes, the thin lips were slightly constricted, and he lowered his head slightly and waited for the response of the woman on the beautiful chair.
"Oh? Qi'er is very worried about the queen mother! Seeing this, Concubine Da was very happy, her body had left the back of the chair in the blink of an eye, and her beautiful eyes flashed with anticipation, in fact, she was not looking forward to that thing, but full of expectations for the next major event of the Seventh Prince!
The seventh prince straightened up and said something to the entourage behind him, only to see that the brocade box that the latter was holding in his hand was given to the girl who came, the girl's eye sockets were deep but the bridge of the nose was very high, like the modern Xinjiang girl, it looked very beautiful, the little girl took the brocade box, and handed it to the hand of the concubine.
Concubine Da took the brocade box, her fingers as thin as green onions poked out a little from the fox fur shawl, and then slowly attached the brocade box, her head lowered, but a pair of eyes were observing the Seven Princes on the side.
Slowly, he took out a small object from the brocade box, shaped like a small teapot, octagonal, not big or small, just right to hold in his hand. The yellowish fetus, look closely, there are portraits of beautiful women depicted on it, the more you look at the portrait, the more familiar it feels, after a while, the slight wrinkle of the willow eyebrows gradually stretched, and at the same time, the corners of the mouth contained a slight smile.
Seeing this, Zi Sang Chenyi said unhurriedly, "The mother concubine is holding a hand stove with gold lacquer beauties, put a little charcoal fire in it in winter, put it in your hands, and warm your palms!" Erchen knew that his mother was afraid of the cold, so he thought of his mother as soon as he got this little thing! ”
Concubine Da continued to smile on her lips, played with the gadgets in her hand, looked outside in the middle of the moon, and said, "Then why did you send this thing so late?" ”
Zi Sang Chenyi's cold face wiped a faint smile, it seemed that nothing could escape the sharp eyes of the concubine, and hurriedly said, "This is not to ask the painter to engrave the portrait of the concubine, so it was delayed for some hours!" ”
Concubine Da put the small hand stove on her lap, the smile on her lips opened, and even the white white teeth could be seen from the beautiful cherry lips, and her appearance was very charming, "Qi'er is the best at pleasing the mother!" Don't be poor, let's talk about what troubles you've encountered today? ”
Zisang Chenyi saw the smile of the mother, so he had already come to the side of the mother in a few steps, and said in a low voice, "I can't hide anything from the eyes of the mother!" ”
"You!" Concubine Da looked at this beloved son and glanced at him dotingly, "Say it! ”
Zi Sang Chenyi opened his mouth and said that Euro Lin Xi was going to marry the fifth prince, and he came here mainly for this matter, these years, he really hasn't thought about any woman, so it is really a little sad to encounter this thing today......
As soon as Concubine Da heard this, her good-looking willow eyebrows suddenly wrung up, "There is such a thing?" "That euro Lin Xi doesn't seem to be a person who doesn't know what to do, how could he let go of the Seven Kings and the Crown Prince and choose the Five Princes who have been abandoned by the royal family, the more I think about it, the more strange I feel.
"Lin Xi said it himself!"
"This ......" Concubine Da's deep eye sockets trembled a little, and she remembered the moment when Euro Lin Xi first showed her edge, no matter what such a woman did, it would not be as simple as it seemed......
"Mother! Erchen ...... I don't want her to marry the fifth brother! Zisang Chenyi's lips were tightly pursed together, and as long as she thought of Lin Xi wearing red clothes, there were other men beside her, and her heart was tightened......
"Does Qi'er not want her to marry the five kings, or ......" Hearing the seventh prince say this, Concubine Da was interested, she had never seen her son so attentive to the women of which family!
"Mother Concubine Mingjian!" The Seventh Prince hurriedly lowered his head, not letting Concubine Nada see the panic in his eyes, in fact, he knew in his heart that what he was really willing to do was marry Lin Xi......
Let's turn our eyes around, under the same quiet night sky, there are different bridges, now let's turn our eyes to the Five Kings' Mansion......
It was still the dilapidated mansion, the mansion of the master and servant, and under this night, it seemed even more silent at the moment, as if it was a silent machine like death.
In front of a house that is considered a good house in this mansion, an old man sits on the stone steps in front of the door with his back bent and slumped, and the silver hair on the old man's head has taken up most of it.
"Ahem!" A slight cough came from the room, the old man hurriedly opened his eyes, straightened his waist, and listened attentively, when another cough came, the old man's dim eyes were instantly covered by joy, and a blinking kung fu man had come to the door.
God knows, since the ghost king fell asleep that day, he has not seen the ghost king wake up for so many nights, so he is very worried, and at this moment, when he heard the movement in the house late at night, Yawu's heart beat like a deer.
He knew that maybe he was no longer just a devil's deal with the Ghost King, but this friendship should not be told to anyone! Yawu helplessly tugged at the corners of his dry mouth, slowly raised his hand and knocked on the door gently!
"Are you awake?" Yawu knocked on the door a few times, and saw that there was still movement inside, but he didn't answer, and he was in a hurry to wait, so he simply asked, but he didn't forget to be cautious, and didn't mention any words about the ghost king......
The voices in the room stopped abruptly when they heard Yawu's greeting......
