Chapter 137: I Just Feel False
Before leaving the White Horse Temple, the woman couldn't help but kindly instruct the two of them, persuading them to live a good life in the future.
Although the woman's face has not diminished the elegance of the past, it still looks extraordinarily gentle and kind.
Bai Yulan responded with a smile, and until dusk, he left with Ye Mingting, and took a look at the terrain and rooms of the White Horse Temple.
The two were in the carriage going back, and Bai Yulan asked, "Did you know that the imperial grandmother was alive before?" ”
She listened to the folk discussions about the previous dynasty, but none of them mentioned that the queen of the previous dynasty was still alive, and she never thought that it was actually a nun who had lost her hair and got rid of the red dust in this temple.
"In the past, in order to avoid the persecution of the emperor, the emperor's grandmother chose to become a nun." Ye Mingting said lightly: "It didn't take long for me to know that she was still alive, and she can be regarded as half a relative." ”
Once upon a time, the emperor was a winner, he murdered the crown prince, tried to bully the crown princess, and usurped the throne to seize the throne.
"I have already arranged someone to protect her by her side, if there is really an accident...... after a pause, Ye Mingting still sighed: "Forget it, there will be no such possibility." ”
He's confident.
"So you wanted to bring me over to see her today, why didn't you tell me earlier." Bai Yulan complained: "If I had known, I would have dressed up." ”
After all, as a former queen, or in her heyday, how many ladies and outstanding girls have you seen? If she looks like this, it's too casual.
"In the temple, you don't value these things, doesn't the imperial grandmother still like you very much?" Ye Mingting smiled, for a while, he only felt that she thought too much, and couldn't help but tease her, and said, "Mrs. is the most beautiful in the eyes of her husband." ”
Sweet words, easy to come by, not ashamed at all.
"Okay, okay, I'm not going to argue with you about that." Bai Yulan pouted.
The next day's royal sacrifice, a group of people Hao Hao soup, started early in the morning, all the princes, nobles, ministers are dressed in gorgeous clothes, Ronghua has made a lot of trouble recently, but still sits next to the emperor, and Concubine Lan sits farther than Princess Ronghua.
The queen and the crown prince naturally sat on the left and right of the emperor.
Ye Mingting and Bai Yulan sat alone in another sedan chair, after all, this was originally used by the royal family to go to the sacrifice, so the furnishings of this sedan chair could not catch up with Ye Mingting's own use.
Bai Yulan was also dressed very formally today, but she was only wearing a simple moonlight white robe, embroidered with a lily pattern with dark threads, while Ye Mingting was wearing a dark robe with dark cloud patterns on her cuffs.
Because Ye Mingting was extremely powerful and held several official positions, the carriage he was in was also very close to the emperor's carriage, and Bai Yulan could clearly hear the laughter and laughter of the carriage next to her, but she only felt false.
"Madame is a little absent-minded." Ye Mingting suddenly said loudly, pushed a cup of tea in the direction of Bai Yulan, and said, "Madame, taste it?" There is nothing in this carriage, even a warm plush carpet is inferior, but this tea is a good tea, but it is still second only to the Yunding Minghe in the house. ”
Bai Yulan picked up the teacup, took a slight sip, and exclaimed: "Tea is indeed good tea, but your requirements are indeed a bit high, husband." ”
Can you get the things in the house here and use them...... That's absolutely impossible, after all, the things in the house, although good, do not conform to this regulation.
"What was the lady thinking before?" Ye Mingting was idle and bored, and he also brought a miscellaneous book with him, and he was looking at it carefully.
"The Emperor's carriage is quite festive." Bai Yulan is very sincere.
Who knew that the man suddenly chuckled, put the book in his hand on the coffee table, and came towards Bai Yulan, and when he fell, he pressed her against the wall of the carriage, and said in a calm voice: "Madame is envious?" ”
Bai Yulan was instantly dumbfounded, and said silently for a while: "I haven't ......"
Her eyes widened, and she looked at him like this, and after a while, the man sighed and said dissatisfiedly: "Madame is still like this, how many times have you been taught." ”
"Huh?" I didn't know for a while.
"When you kiss, close your eyes." The man was helpless.
Before Bai Yulan could react, she pressed it down, tossing and turning at the corners of her mouth, as if she was very patient, inch by inch, slowly towards her mouth, between her lips and tongue.
Bai Yulan was invincible, and was a little breathless by his delicate kiss, so he put his hand against his chest, and refused.
"The grease has been kissed off for you." Bai Yulan looked at him, with shame and anger in her eyes.
Ye Mingting wiped the corners of his mouth, the saliva he had applied before was stuck to the corners of his mouth, he didn't care at all, and said with a smile: "Now it's more beautiful." ”
Bai Yulan pushed him away angrily, and said secretly, when she is so anxious, she will have to come forward in front of the public later!
"I'm just worried about whether I'll pass my illness on my wife." The man suddenly sighed sadly.
As soon as she talked about this sickness, Bai Yulan began to feel distressed, looked at Ye Mingting, comforted him, and couldn't help but rub his back with her hand in a motherly manner, and said, "There is no such thing as sickness." ”
Suddenly there was a shout outside, and the carriage stopped, and it seemed that it should have arrived.
The two got off the carriage at this time, Ye Mingting was used to staying on the battlefield, and he was vigorous, so he got off the carriage early, and Bai Yulan followed behind, watching the other ladies and ladies step on the back of the little girl and get off the carriage elegantly, but she didn't like to step on people to get off the carriage, and she always felt uncomfortable.
Ye Mingting walked side by side with her, and the red carpet was even laid out outside the White Horse Temple, and the host personally received it, and all the monks stood on both sides of the red carpet.
Bai Yulan secretly said in her heart, where is the red dust here? Or is it under the power of this emperor, how is it different from these ministers? These ministers and royal families just like to find a little bit of Buddha's psychological connotation for themselves after doing something.
The minister and his family followed the emperor one after another, walking towards the White Horse Temple, and Ye Mingting suddenly stood beside her and said, "Madam? ”
"Huh?" On top of this ceremony, can he still make small talk with her?
"Haven't you told me what do you envy?" Pursued.
"It's not envy, but I feel false, where is there such a thing as royal happiness." Bai Yulan sneered.
And the figure of the people around him is a meal.
In her opinion, this Ronghua has repeatedly ruined the emperor's good deeds, and has not made a big deal, if the emperor really likes this daughter, it is estimated that she is regarded as the sustenance of his youth, after all, Ronghua is now living out the arrogance that the emperor did not dare to think of, since the emperor was not born to a favorite concubine, nor is he the queen's concubine, nor is he the eldest son.
To be able to embark on such a path is that there is too much psychological darkness.
Everyone entered the White Horse Temple in turn, and the open space inside was extremely wide and more than enough to accommodate everyone.
The bell in the temple rang three times, one higher than the other, and powerful, majestic and profound, as if penetrating the hearts of people.
The emperor and the empress stood at the front, wearing dragon and phoenix robes, which looked like this, but they were extremely harmonious, and Concubine Lan, without thinking about it, must be extremely jealous.
After the emperor and queen made incense, they began to pray and congratulate: "Heaven and earth are benevolent, pray to God, bless my heavenly dynasty, the wind and rain are smooth, and the country and the people are safe." ”
After the congratulatory prayer was finished, the emperor and queen slowly came down from the high platform.
The queen was graceful and dignified, but her eyes were careless when she raised her eyes and swept towards everyone, and her attitude towards the emperor was also indistinguishable.
She has done enough to be a gentle and dignified virtuous queen, but she has no feelings of husband and wife, but she has a sense of responsibility for the world.
The empress stood beside the emperor, making the emperor look much more pleasing to the eye, Bai Yulan said secretly.
At the end of this round of prayer, everyone is arranged to rest for a round or to go their own way.
"The officials of the imperial court, at least pray in it for an hour, as a prayer for our court." Ye Mingting pinched his eyebrows with some annoyance, and said, "Madame, do you want to go with you?" ”
After all, he is still a marquis, and the etiquette system still can't be messed up, what should be done, still has to be done.
Passing by here before, Bai Yulan found some prayers, and sat motionless on her knees in it continuously, and after staying for a long time, she was a little hesitant.
"This old minister still has to kneel and sit and pray in the temple for so long." Bai Yulan touched her nose and said depressedly: "I guess that if I stay in it for so long, I won't be able to sit still." ”
Besides, she felt that this kind of prayer was just idealism, and that it was just a matter of mental peace.
Bai Yulan's body was not very good, and Ye Mingting couldn't bear to let her suffer like that, so he planned to let her rest first.
Ye Mingting was just about to leave when he heard that the queen suddenly sent someone to find Bai Yulan.
Zhen'er blessed the two of them, and said slowly: "I wonder if Mrs. is going to pray for blessings?" The queen wanted to invite the lady to come over to reminisce about the past, so she specially asked the slave to come and invite the lady over. ”
Bai Yulan bowed his head at Ye Mingting and said with a smile: "Then please ask your husband to go and pray for blessings." ”
Ye Mingting explained a few words, and then left with the Hubu Shangshu who came up to talk.
The queen was sitting on the side eating the fruit, and when she saw Bai Yulan coming, she handed the half-peeled orange in her hand to Bai Yulan, and motioned for Bai Yulan to sit aside with her eyes.
"I haven't seen Madame for a long time, but when I see Madame this time, I can't help but want to talk to Madame." She said.
Bai Yulan was still a little flattered when she took the oranges peeled by the queen, but she was courteous and holigent, either a traitor or a thief, what did the queen want her to help?
The queen sat upright in her chair, her pointed and ornate armor slid over the lid of the cup, and slowly slid the lid over the tea, blowing the hot air without hurrying.
She didn't speak, which made Bai Yulan a little unnatural.
"Madame Bai's business in the people is said to be well-known throughout the city and is very popular." The queen finally spoke first, her phoenix eyes were raised, with a smile, and said, "It must be a lot of money." ”
"Madame Bai is really a capable woman." She complimented her.
"Niangniang has won the prize, but it is a small business, and it is not a big deal, if Niangniang is interested in the courtier's gadgets, the courtiers will definitely give it away." Bai Yulan was polite.
The queen exchanged a few more pleasantries with her, and said nothing more than about her shop.
However, these words are obviously not the queen's point.
Sure enough, after mentioning a few words about the people Bai Yulan knew and intersected with, the queen opened the topic and said meaningfully: "It is said that the youngest son of the household department Shangshu, An Ling has a good relationship with his wife. ”
