Chapter 2: Ten Miles of Vermilion
Xiao Yongqing has a good skin, his three-dimensional facial features are very pleasing to the girls, and the green silk is tied up with a golden hair crown, and the Zhu Xuanxi court dress makes him even more slender and handsome.
Yue Jin looked at him patronically, but she didn't notice that he had walked in front of him.
"Princess Shunhe, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived." Changfeng tugged at the corners of his mouth, full of mockery.
Only then did Yue Jin react, and hurriedly curtsied: "Your Highness is blessed." ”
"The crown princess is exempt." An emotionless tone.
Xiao Yongqing didn't like this princess who was named to marry him. He has never liked to be forced, but in the current tense situation, he has to compromise temporarily. At this time, seeing her looking directly at herself, she was even more displeased.
Yue Jin raised her head, and her eyes drifted to the goose-yellow figure beside the rockery not far away.
Apparently, the man was watching her, too.
Xiao Yongqing looked at the rockery, his eyes instantly softened, and the corners of his mouth raised a smile.
This just verifies Yue Jin's assumption, that is, Su Nian.
She chuckled: "Miss Su is really pitiful for me." ”
Xiao Yongqing stared at Yue Jin with a frown, his gaze was sharp, as if he wanted to dissect her.
He was silent for a few seconds, and then said in a deep voice, "Don't think crookedly. With that, he left Yuejin alone and got into the carriage.
Yue Jin didn't understand where he said something wrong to make him unhappy, although he didn't care how he treated him, but he still wanted to live comfortably in this mansion.
Younan looked at her princess with some concern, and Yue Jin shook her head and asked her not to think about it.
As soon as Yue Jin got into the carriage, Xiao Yongqing didn't even look at her much, and raised his hand to close the curtain.
This curtain was meant to distinguish between master and servant.
Younan's face was not very good-looking, although he didn't say anything, I am afraid that he would have scolded Xiao Yongqing in his heart.
Yue Jin didn't care, she felt that no one had treated her well before anyway, and now she is not inferior to Xiao Yongqing.
Except, of course, for him.
Yue Jin sat cross-legged, leaned her head on the wheel, and looked at the scenery outside while the curtain was flying.
It is the same palace wall, and the boundless vermilion makes her return to the mansion soaked in blood many years ago, which is ...... His mansion.
/
"Don't be afraid, you just hide here and come out when there's no sound outside."
He stuffed her into a cramped firewood room.
She looked at the sadness in his eyes, his trembling hands, his blood-soaked armor.
"And what if they find me?"
He shook his head: "It's over soon. ”
"Will you come back to pick me up?"
His figure froze: "You will live." ”
"But I want to be with you! Even if it's death! She cried and cried.
She saw him turn his head slowly, a warm smile on his face that dispelled her fear.
"Slave, don't do stupid things, you didn't promise ......"
/
The carriage stopped suddenly, and Yue Jin almost fell off the car.
Younan helped her get out of the carriage, and she was about to enter Miyagi before that.
Yue Jin looked up at the high palace wall, but she didn't realize it yet, and now it really looks like a cage.
No, it's more terrifying than the cage, which still has room to breathe, and it's full of airtight masonry that makes people breathless.
But after all, you can't get out if you want to get out, and you can't get in if you want to get in.
Yue Jin followed Xiao Yongqing's side, behind her to be precise. Xiao Yongqing walked faster and faster, and in the end, Yue Jin almost had to trot to catch up.
Even so, Yue Jin could hear the whispers of the palace maids and eunuchs, which were nothing more than disdainful words.
It's not to blame them for talking too much, after all, it was she who stood cheekily in front of the civil and military officials and begged for this family business.
As for why this is so, everyone in the world thinks that Princess Yuejin of Beili fell in love with Xiao Yongqing, who was the king of Yan at first sight, and she must make a personal promise.
As everyone knows, she is just trying to keep her promise back then.
/
A few steps away from the Taihe Palace, Xiao Yongqing's steps slowed down and handed his hand to Yue Jin.
He's a smart guy and knows what to do when and when. No matter how reluctant it is, on such occasions, some looks still have to be made.
Xiao Yongqing led Yue Jin into the hall, and both knelt down to worship the Emperor and Empress Hanshu, as well as Xiao Yongqing's biological mother, Emperor Yao, and thanked them for this beautiful marriage.
The emperor was delighted, and raised his hand with a smile to give them a seat. The queen said a few polite words with an expressionless face, and left early under the pretext of being unwell.
Concubine Yao felt a little sad in her heart, she knew that her son would never be willing to be manipulated by others, and she only hoped that the day of tearing his face would come later.
She cordially took Yue Jin's hand and talked to her, her voice soft, like a spring breeze.
"How can you live in the cold these days? If anything, just mention it. ”
"Thank you for your concern, Yuejin is all right."
Yue Jin felt that Emperor Yao's concubine was gentle and graceful, generous and decent, and more motherly than the yin and yang queen.
Emperor Yao asked Yue Jin about some trivial matters in life, down to all aspects of food, clothing, housing and transportation, and even asked her if she would be homesick, but she didn't mention the relationship between Yue Jin and Xiao Yongqing.
The conversation was very pleasant, and the concubine of Emperor Yao took out the gold-inlaid jade bracelet prepared in advance, rolled up Yuejin's sleeve and put it on for her, and put her hand on Xiao Yongqing's hand.
However, just as the two hands were about to touch, she let go.
Yue Jin couldn't help but admire the weak-looking Concubine Yao, her attitude was very clear, and others couldn't grasp the handle.
Before parting, Emperor Yao called Xiao Yongqing aside alone.
"Qing'er, I don't think Princess Shunhe is the kind of narrow-minded person, you should be kind to her on weekdays."
"Mother, you obviously know ......" Xiao Yongqing frowned.
"I'm worried when I know." Concubine Yao touched her son's head, "By the way, according to Nian'er's temperament, I didn't mess with you this time?" ”
Xiao Yongqing was silent, his voice was ethereal and illusory, with a hint of helplessness: "I hope she has trouble with me." ”
Emperor Yao sighed, glanced at Yue Jin, lowered her voice and said, "You have to think clearly, don't hurt the hearts of the two people." ”
/
The carriage drove slowly on the road, slower and slower, until it came to a halt.
Xiao Yongqing lifted the curtain and asked the coachman: "What's the matter, what's going on?" ”
"Your Highness, it seems to be ...... ahead" The coachman hesitated, not sure.
"Looks like someone is hurt." Yue Jin, who has always had good eyesight, spoke first.
"I'll take a look." Saying that, without waiting for Xiao Yongqing's consent, she jumped out of the carriage and squeezed in front of the crowd watching the excitement.
"I'll say it again, sir, now immediately, apologize!" The man in the short-sleeved suit trampled the boy in a brocade coat under his feet and roared loudly.
The man who stepped on the man was about thirty years old, not handsome but could be seen, his messy beard and dull skin made him look very decadent, but his eyes were surprisingly pure.
"You, how can you bully people in broad daylight?" Yue Jin pointed at him and blurted out.
"Huh?"
The man turned his head to look for the source of the sound, and when he saw that it was no more than a thin woman, he was stunned, and his originally arrogant face showed a look of confusion.
Result...... Where have you seen it?
