Chapter 258: Meet the Emperor
Behead? Xia Zhixue's back instantly broke out in a slight cold sweat. She is not like the cat, she has nine lives enough to cut off her head, and no one knows better than her how rare the hope of being born again is.
If you haven't avenged your revenge, but your life has been put in, I'm afraid you won't be a ghost who dies unjustly in the future.
Ouyang Huaisen looked at Xia Zhixue and smiled, "Don't worry, the emperor is not that kind of tyrant. Just be careful, don't be too nervous. ”
He knows Xia Zhixue's cleverness, and Ouyang Huaisen also thinks so, maybe he can say a few kind words in front of the emperor, and he can also give Xia Zhixue a reward or something, and he doesn't have to look carefully at Xia Huaiqing and Xia Zhiqiu's faces in the waiting mansion in the future.
However, Xia Zhixue had a big stone hanging in her heart, looking at the relaxed expression on Ouyang Huaisen's face, her mood was not relaxed. He and the emperor grew up together, so naturally they will not be afraid of the emperor. As long as it is not a crime of rebellion, how can the emperor be willing to touch his own brother.
But Xia Zhixue is different. It's just a concubine of the Houfu, and if she makes a slight mistake, it will be difficult for this head to continue to breathe on her head.
"Don't worry, I'll protect you." In Ouyang Huaisen's heart, he had long regarded Xia Zhixue as his own sister, how could he let Xia Zhixue have any catastrophe? Besides, he grew up with the emperor, how could he not know the emperor's character, and he was not the kind of moody temperament, how could he easily take Xia Zhixue's life.
"This visit is a reward for you. I have a few kind words for you in front of the emperor. So relax, pack up and follow me to the palace. ”
"Go now?" Xia Zhixue's face was full of panic. Always be cautious, although Ouyang Huaisen said that this trip was to be rewarded. But if he arrives in front of the emperor, and the emperor finds that he is not as good as Ouyang Huaisen described, what will he do with himself?
Xia Zhixue didn't ask for any reward, but it was fortunate that there was no disaster.
"It's not going to the draft, I shouldn't have to clean up, right?" Xia Zhixue looked down at her clothes, she was so simple on weekdays, and she also had a careful thought, that is, to try not to let the emperor notice her.
"The royal clothes must be decent, otherwise they will also be disrespected to the emperor." Ouyang Huaisen waved his hand casually, and a mother-in-law who looked calm and decent walked out behind.
"She is Granny Song and has been on an errand in the palace for many years. Some specific precautions, Granny Song will tell you. ”
The mother-in-law, who was called Granny Song, walked over slowly and blessed Xia Zhixue slightly.
"The slave takes the girl to change her clothes."
Xia Zhixue had no choice but to lead her mother-in-law to her boudoir, and after a bath, her mother-in-law had prepared several sets of clean clothes for Xia Zhixue to choose.
"Girl, don't worry." Mrs. Song comforted, "The emperor likes to wear pink girls the most, and it is absolutely impossible for a girl to choose one of these light blue and dark green." ”
Mrs. Song knew that Xia Zhixue was Ouyang Huaisen's fiancée, and if she was favored by the emperor, she was afraid that she would be a sinner in the future, and she said that she would rather demolish a temple than destroy a marriage. Xia Zhixue is a delicate girl, but she can't be unkempt and grizzled before the saint, if she avoids the emperor's love, it is most suitable to choose a set of clothes from these overly flamboyant colors.
Xia Zhixue was a little surprised by the delicacy of Mrs. Song's thoughts, she didn't even expect this layer. She doesn't want to be chosen as the person next to the emperor, and she doesn't want to be disgusted by the emperor, killing her head is enough to relieve her hatred. It's better to be unobtrusive.
"Thank you, mother-in-law." In the end, Xia Zhixue chose a light green dress. Mrs. Song looked at Xia Zhixue's delicate appearance, and she was also very relieved in her heart. Mrs. Song couldn't help but sigh that the vision of the Seven Princes was indeed good.
Ouyang Huaisen waited for a pillar of incense in the main hall, and finally waited for Xia Zhixue, who was wearing a light green skirt, to come. Previously, Mrs. Song had told Xia Zhixue about the emperor's achievements, intelligence, and the main figures in the palace. I love eBooks
"Brother Huang likes everything else except light blue and light green, what? Didn't you let the royal brother rob me? Ouyang Huaisen's joke hit Xia Zhixue's mind in one sentence.
Although she knew that Xia Zhixue was not the kind of girl who talked a lot, Mrs. Song on the side finally told again, "Prudence in words and deeds is the most important thing." ”
Xia Zhixue nodded, and Mrs. Song was relieved, she had served so many noble concubines in the palace, she only liked Xia Zhixue, who was not publicized, and did not only think about the holy favor. None of the other girls wanted to live in that empty palace, but Mrs. Song didn't want Xia Zhixue to fall into that filthy dye vat.
Afterwards, Ouyang Huaisen took Xia Zhixue into the carriage, thinking that Xiao Nineteen should not be jealous, Ouyang Huaisen took another carriage and came to the palace.
Above the empty court, there is no one else except the emperor and the eunuch in charge. Sitting on the dragon chair, the emperor didn't know how many times he had committed cervical spondylosis. But it's been too long, and the emperor is used to it. Always in the highest position, the greater the responsibility. is obviously about the same age as Prince Yong, and the emperor already has a lot of gray hair on his head.
He also wants to be as free as Prince Yong to serve the country on the battlefield, even if he dies on the battlefield in the end, there is nothing rare in his life. Or live a free and easy life like Ouyang Huaiyu, who is naughty and mischievous from time to time, and there is always him, the royal brother, to clean up.
But he couldn't. He was the chosen one, and he was born with gray hair for what he was to do in this position.
It didn't take long for someone to report that Ouyang Huaisen had brought Xia Zhixue here.
The emperor couldn't help but be a little curious, what kind of eccentric woman was so smart, and let Ouyang Huaisen be a baby, and let her invite credit.
Xia Zhixue lowered her head and looked at the bright floor, and her footsteps echoed in the hall with every step. Xia Zhixue felt that she had walked this road for too long, too long.
Looking at Ouyang Huaisen kneeling on the ground in front of him, Xia Zhixue also knelt on the ground when he saw the opportunity, followed Ouyang Huaisen and kowtowed, and greeted the emperor.
"The younger brother brought his fiancée Xia to meet the emperor."
Ouyang Huaisen's beautiful voice echoed above the court, and the emperor nodded, letting the two of them even.
Listening to Mrs. Song's words, Xia Zhixue didn't dare to look directly at the emperor, looking directly into the emperor's eyes was a great disrespect to the emperor, even though she was extremely curious in her heart, Xia Zhixue still lowered her head.
After exchanging a few words with the emperor, the emperor finally couldn't help but ask Xia Zhixue questions.
"You're Xia Zhixue, right?"
Xia Zhixue's eyes were about to stare at a hole in the ground, "Back to the emperor, yes." ”
"Raise your head and let me see."
Xia Zhixue sighed in her heart, and still raised her head slightly.
If the emperor didn't understand what kind of woman she was, but when the emperor saw those eyes full of aura, he had the answer in his heart.
