CHAPTER XIII
"Grandmother! Alain kowtowed to his grandmother. Alain obediently called out and was about to kneel. The glutinous voice called the queen mother's heart melted, and she was busy reaching out to pull it, and praised the good child. Seeing that the Queen Mother's tears were about to fall, Jinxiu on the side smiled and said: "The Queen Mother also asked our emperor to take a look, the emperor doesn't speak, but his heart must be happy!" ”
"Yes, yes! Grandmother was so happy! The Queen Mother held Alain's hand tightly, "Go, go and show the emperor, go and come back quickly!" The Queen Mother smiled and pushed Alan to the side of the emperor who was sitting on the side, and everyone laughed when they heard "Go and come back quickly".
"Good daughter." Before Alan could speak, the emperor said, "Calculate carefully, it's almost the age of Ji Lu." ”
"Back to my father, yes." Alan replied obediently, quietly looking at this man in his forties but still healthy.
"Complaining about my father. They all complained about their fathers. The emperor, who usually does not smile, looked at Alan with a trace of tenderness in his eyes, and the concubine on the side lost his mind for a while. This look is not like looking at Alain, but through Alain, he is looking at another person.
"Don't blame yourself, the emperor can't help it, the princess was born with weak bones, and the emperor had no choice but to send her to the Spirit Temple!" The concubine was afraid that the emperor would recall something, so she hurriedly said.
"Later, my father will take you to your mother's residence." The emperor didn't answer the concubine's words, and said softly to Alain.
"Yes, Father." Alan felt a little sympathy for the concubine in his heart. From the time she entered the door to the present, the concubine's speech has not been ignored, and Alain is a little embarrassed by the concubine. Who knew that the concubine didn't feel anything, and still continued: "Yes, yes." The princess's mother left early, and the princess was still a baby at that time, so she must have ...... to Sister Mu Qing."
"Good granddaughter, come to grandmother." The Queen Mother interrupted the concubine's words with a smile and beckoned to Alain. Alain glanced at the concubine cautiously and walked over obediently.
After greeting for a while, the emperor said that he would personally take Alan to familiarize himself with the palace. Everyone knows that the emperor is going to take Alan to the former residence of the princess and the princess. Only the concubine rushed to the front and said that she wanted to accompany the princess, but was stopped by the queen mother to assist the queen in preparing the family banquet in the evening.
Out of Fushou Palace, the emperor turned directly to the left and skillfully turned onto a small road. However, Alain clearly noticed that the shrubs and flowers on both sides of the road tended to grow in the middle. This road has been taken by very few people.
After walking about half a cup of tea, I saw a vine man with the thickness of a baby's arm, which was erected on the road in a bow-shape, crawling with green leaves, and some broken flowers, where the broken flowers were hidden, there was a small sign with a few words engraved on it: Lan Palace. The vine is like a dividing line, crossing the arch of the vine, and on both sides of the road behind it, full of flowers, in this season of life blooming, vigorously growing.
"You're good." The emperor, who was walking in front, suddenly said, "Like your mother, she looks soft and weak, but she is smart. ”
The emperor walked to the door of a plain-looking but clean house surrounded by a sea of flowers, and said, "Your grandfather's name is Song Hejie, and he is a veteran of the three dynasties of my Xu Kingdom, a famous general of the Qing Dynasty. Your grandmother's name is He Qingqing, the daughter of a minor frontier official. ”
"And their only daughter, that is, your mother, is called Song Muqing."
Song Muqing. Song Hejie admires He Qingqing. A warm current flowed through Alain's heart.
The emperor pushed open the carved wooden door and was greeted by a portrait hanging on the wall. The woman in the painting is wearing a yellow Bixia Luo embroidered with a phoenix, the lower skirt is a pink smoke veil that mops the floor, the soft yarn of Luo Cui is held in her hand, and a peony flower is obliquely inserted in the wind bun and mist temples. The woman stood under a tree, raised her head slightly and smelled the fragrance of flowers, her small melon seed face, her cheeks were slightly red, her eyes were closed, and her small mouth was slightly upturned, as if she was feeling the smell of flowers.
"Your mother is the most spiritual woman I have ever seen."
