Chapter 63, Huang Yuan's Gift
"Oh? Yuan'er is here? The queen was overjoyed on the surface, but she didn't wait to see Huang Yuan in her heart: Please? I have never seen an invitation in the palace these days, but today I invited Luo Yuming to come, but he came.
When Luo Yuming heard Huang Yuan's name, the depressed atmosphere in his heart suddenly disappeared: Huang Yuan actually came, and he was finally able to return to the small courtyard.
Luo Yuming left the banquet with the queen and returned to the hall again.
As soon as he entered the hall, Huang Yuan was already standing in the hall.
Luo Yuming walked straight to Huangyuan.
Huang Yuan saluted first: "The son of the queen mother to say goodbye, on weekdays, the queen mother has a lot of trivial matters, the son of the minister is not careful, and I hope that the queen mother will forgive the sin." Huang Yuan entered the door and saluted first, admitting his mistake.
"Where is Yuan'er, you were unwell a few days ago, how could the queen mother bear to blame. Besides, you are used to being free in Zhengyuan City, and you are not used to the rules of the palace, so you don't have to be rigid about etiquette. The queen said in her heart: Little fox, you admit your mistake first, this palace doesn't forgive you, but this palace is not.
"Thank you for your understanding." Huang Yuan was respectful, but Luo Yuming heard Huang Yuan's insincerity.
Huang Yuan waved his hand, and the palace maid on the side held the open brocade box and presented it.
"Queen Mother, Zhengyuan City is close to the Northern Yao Kingdom, and the sons have no precious objects to give to the Queen Mother, only a pair of colorful cloud blood beads from the merchants of the Northern Yao Kingdom."
Everyone looked at the contents of the brocade box, and there were two translucent beads the size of quail eggs lying quietly in the box, and there was a sunset-like pattern in the beads, as if the sunset in the sky was really captured into the beads.
You've seen a lot of good beads, but everyone wants to take a closer look at such natural and gorgeous beads.
The queen was very satisfied and let the kite accept it.
After a few casual greetings, Huang Yuan said: "The son will leave for the fiefdom the day after tomorrow, and today he will also bid farewell to the queen mother." ”
"Why is Yuan'er in such a hurry?" The queen wished that Huang Yuan would leave earlier, as long as the emperor could let Huang Yuan leave, Hongyuan would have a greater chance of being made a prince.
"I've been out for more than a month, it's time to go back."
"Yuan'er will leave a few days later, the palace has just made an eye on the matter of agreeing to the emperor to choose the princess for you, and if you leave like this, the emperor will definitely blame the palace for not paying attention."
"Choosing a princess is in charge of the queen mother."
"After two days, the palace invited the two eldest ladies of the Tang family and the Ye family to enter the palace. When you have a favorite, this palace will say kiss for you. ”
"The sons and daughters will not participate, and they will all obey the orders of the queen mother."
"Hmm. Yuan'er is more obedient than your second brother. The queen was pleased.
"Then the minister will not disturb the queen mother's rest." Huang Yuan got up.
"Well, go ahead." The queen did not stay long.
Luo Yuming also retired.
As soon as Luo Yuming and Huang Yuan left the queen's Fenglai Palace, the smile on the queen's face immediately disappeared, and she instructed Lingyuan: "Throw the beads away." ”
"Mother, why is that?" Dan Concubine on the side asked.
The queen said in a disdainful tone: "Sunset, twilight? Is he cursing the palace for ruin? Bite off more than one can chew. ”
Dan Concubine was afraid that her question would touch the queen's barbs, so she hurriedly patted her ass: "What Niangniang said is that this King of Yubei is really young and vigorous, and he doesn't weigh himself." ”
The queen's eyes changed, and she instructed the spirit kite: "Spirit kite, send someone to pass Tang Ke'er into the palace." ”
Huang Yuan, who came out of Fenglai Palace, sat in the same car with Luo Yuming, and Huang Yuan didn't ask anything.
Luo Yuming rarely took the initiative to "explain": "The queen asked me to help you find a princess." Do you have a favorite candidate, and if the queen passes me on again, I don't have to be so embarrassed. ”
"How did Madame answer the Queen?"
"I said that I should ask the prince, and the prince loves me very much because I am self-aware, no matter what the prince does. The queen didn't seem to be very happy. ”
"There is this king, queen...... Madame doesn't need to take it personally. ”
Luo Yuming was a little surprised, didn't Huang Yuan want to avoid his edge, why was he so arrogant at this time?
Huang Yuan continued to ask: "But Madame's choice for the princess can be liked?" ”
Luo Yuming: "What's the use of what I like, it's not for me to marry." ”
Huang Yuan felt that Luo Yuming was jealous, and said with a smile: "Madame doesn't like it, it's the same for this king to marry anyone." ”
"The queen mother plans to choose one of Tang Ke'er and Ye Lanqing." Luo Yuming didn't answer Huang Yuan's words.
"Hmm." Huang Yuan's voice seemed to have no intention of responding.
Seeing that Huang Yuan didn't care about himself, Luo Yuming didn't bother to ask again. That's not something to worry about.
Back at the pavilion, Luo Yuming instructed the palace maid to sit down and send some snacks into the house.
Seeing that Luo Yuming was eating fragrantly, Huang Yuan poured a cup of tea and handed it over: "Is there a shortage of food in the queen's palace?" ”
Luo Yuming took a sip of tea and replied, "It should be, ten dishes, one bite per person, anyway, I'm not full." ”
Huang Yuan just smiled and didn't speak.
"By the way, there is a rule in the palace that when the queen eats, the queen puts down the chopsticks, and others can't move the chopsticks? Why is this not the case at the banquet? ”
"It's not clearly stipulated, it's just an unwritten rule, reflecting the status of respect. The picture of the banquet is happy, too restrained, but it destroys the atmosphere. ”
Luo Yuming swallowed the snack in his mouth and continued to ask, "Then I eat with you on weekdays, why didn't you tell me?" ”
"This king does not have high requirements for his wife. Madame can do whatever she likes. Huang Yuan didn't care.
Luo Yuming glanced Huang Yuan up and down: "The prince actually has an empathetic side?" ”
Huang Yuan was proud: "Madame doesn't know, it's all because Madame doesn't know how to be blessed in the midst of blessings." ”
Luo Yuming glanced at this "Wang Po" with disdain, she was really boastful.
The idle and boring days fly by, and in the blink of an eye, a few days have passed.
Luo Yuming recalled his predecessor, although he was burdened with a sea of blood and hatred in this life, he had never had such a comfortable life in his previous life without worrying about food and clothing, not worrying about being caught, and not worrying about being assassinated.
Early this morning, Luo Yuming used breakfast, and Huang Yuan said: "I've been here for so long, it's very boring to keep my wife in the pavilion and small pavilion all day long, right?" ”
"How?" Luo Yuming asked lightly.
"Today, the king will take his wife to the imperial garden."
"Whatever you want." Luo Yuming didn't think that Huang Yuan would take him to the garden specifically, he must have done something under the guise of himself.
Sometimes, Huang Yuan's attitude towards Luo Yuming was really helpless, and he was always so cold. Fortunately, he was more casual and put it in front of others, and he didn't know if Luo Yuming's life was still there.
The two were still sitting in the same chariot, and Huang Yuan was unusually silent along the way.
Luo Yuming couldn't see what Huang Yuan was thinking, this was the first time he saw Huang Yuan's thoughtful expression.
Seeing that Huang Yuan had nothing to say all the way, Luo Yuming only admired the eternal red-walled high courtyard.
Passing by a palace gate, you can hear the faint laughter of women in the courtyard.
Luo Yuming was not curious, but sighed.
