Chapter VII
Alain stood in the middle of the hall in a daze, looking at the woman sitting in the high hall. The woman is over thirty years old, and although she has tried her best to keep a low profile when she comes to the temple, she still looks graceful and luxurious. A dark purple robe embroidered with peonies, long hair coiled at the back of the head, held in place by a golden hairpin, and the tail of the hairpin is a carved phoenix with tassels. There was a pair of slender eyes that were not too big under the long willow eyebrows, and they looked at the small group of girls below with the taste of scrutiny. Standing on one side is a pine crane wearing a beige long skirt, although the pine crane is beautiful, but the beauty is not aggressive. The beauty of the queen, with a strong taste of possession, forms a sense of oppression just by sitting there.
"Alain, this is the queen mother of the Great Xu Kingdom." The monk sat in the first position on the left hand side of the hall, his face faint and expressionless. Unexpectedly, Tuhe also came. Tuhe sat opposite the monk, his face was not very good.
"I ...... Alan...... Alain meets the Queen's mother. Alain hurriedly put the package on the ground, because he was nervous, he knelt down straight, kowtowed heavily, didn't grasp the strength, and the whole person almost lifted over. Ah Cheng hurriedly grabbed her back collar with one hand. Alain was so ashamed that he knelt on the ground and lowered his head to bury his face in the collar, but heard a laugh.
"Queen Mother, this child is afraid of life." Songhe took the opportunity to pinch the queen's shoulder, and said with a smile, "Alain, what are you so afraid of, hurry up and don't hurt your knees." With that, he walked over to Alan and helped Ah Cheng up. Rubbing Alain's forehead, he asked, "Does it hurt?" ”
Alan still lowered his head fiercely and said in a muffled voice, "No." ”
Tuhe glanced at Alain, then at the monk, stood up, made a salute to the queen, and said: "Queen Mother, the minister thinks that Alain is still young, it is better to raise ...... in the Bone Fu Temple."
"In less than three months, I will be in time, and I will reach the age of talking about marriage, which is not small. The Queen Mother is worried and must not be delayed. The queen interrupted Tuhe, but didn't give him a look.
"That's what the Queen said." Song He said with a smile, "Besides, Alan is going to take him back to the palace after all, go back early, learn the rules, and get closer to the emperor, the queen, the queen mother and the harem concubines." ”
Take it back to the palace? Alan was a little confused and looked at the gap in the floor of the hall, in the palace? Is it the palace of Emperor Xu? The queen mother came in person, what is her identity? How close are you to the queen mother and the emperor? What does this mean? Don't...... Alain suddenly didn't dare to think about it.
"The Buddha door is pure. The queen mother received someone, and the poor monk did not stay. The monk stood up, saluted the queen, and then turned and walked straight out the door. Alain looked at the master who walked towards him, and his nose suddenly soured. Just as Alan was about to speak, to everyone's surprise, the monk stepped out of the threshold as if he hadn't seen it.
Alain's tears flowed straight out. Master ...... Don't you say something. The queen mother is right, Alan is not small, Alan knows that it will be difficult for him to come back when he enters the palace, Alan even vaguely knows the reason why the palace people let her go back, it must not be as simple as the queen mother worrying about herself, otherwise she would have taken it back a long time ago.
Tuhe fed and chased out. Songhe pinched Alain's shoulder, and then said to the queen: "It's really not early, the queen mother and her old man are still waiting in Fushou Palace, so let's leave for the queen to return to the palace." ”
The queen had no expression on her face, and she mumbled when she spoke.
