Chapter 17: The Secret [3]

"Concubine Niangniang, the second prince is asking to see you outside the palace!" After speaking, the palace maid respectfully blessed her body and waited for the master to launch the command.

Hearing this, the stunning woman on the couch slowly got up, her slender jade fingers gently supported the steps on the Fuyun bun, and followed the palace maid to the center of the outer hall and sat on the chaise longue in the main hall.

Every casual action reveals the innate noble temperament in her bones.

There is an ancient saying that the red face is a disaster, but this woman shows the red face flawlessly.

The stunning woman who was called the concubine nodded slightly and said, "Let him come in." ”

"Xuan, the second prince will see you!" Suddenly, a shrill voice resounded throughout the hall.

……

"Erchen, see the mother!" With a greeting, a handsome young man entered the main hall.

Dressed in an elegant aqua blue brocade robe, the robe is surrounded by cirrus patterns, and the head is tied with a sapphire jade crown with tassels.

The long black hair poured down, the eyes seemed to have a whirlpool, the high nose bridge was a beautiful lip shape, and the lines on the face were handsome and bright, what a handsome young man!

The clouds are light and the wind is light, humble and courteous, and the temperament is gentle and elegant!

"Rui'er doesn't have to be polite, get up!" After speaking, he instructed the palace people on the side, "You all go down first!" I have important matters to discuss with the second prince alone. ”

"Yes, sis!" When everyone heard this, they nodded slightly and saluted, and then retreated.

As the footsteps of the palace people gradually walked away, the woman began to ask.

"Rui'er, do you know what day it will be in a month?" Her lips opened slightly, and her face revealed an indescribable charm and enchantment, but it was difficult to hide the ambition of power-hungry in her eyes.

"It is not only the 60th birthday of the emperor's grandmother, but also the day of the prince's concubine selection." The young man replied respectfully.

"Then Rui'er, do you know the purpose of the concubine's call for you today?"

Although it is a common question, how many unknown things are hidden behind this question?

"Nowadays, although most of the princes are served by people, after all, there is never a master. The father wanted to take this opportunity to consolidate the position of the crown prince in the court, and he was supported by some important ministers! Incidentally...... Cut off the minds of other princes to fight! Mother, are you still satisfied with your son's answer? ”

Although the second prince looks humble and polite on weekdays, behind this humble look at this moment, there is a hidden calculation that never shows people.

"Rui'er is really smart, so do you understand how to behave on the Queen Mother's birthday?" After that, the woman's beautiful face smiled, and this smile reflected her charm more vividly!

"The mother doesn't need to bother, the sons and daughters understand!" After speaking, a slight smirk appeared at the corner of his mouth.

……

Since ancient times, the royal family has always been so glamorous, but behind all this, the price that needs to be paid is not as simple as just a few lives!

β€”β€”β€” the streets of the Imperial Cityβ€”β€”β€”

Luo Lingxi walked on the crowded ancient street, and walked on the street of Paris has a different feeling, there is no endless stream of luxury cars, no dazzling fashion, no high-rise buildings;

Some are vendors greeting customers on both sides of the street, some are red bricks, green tiles and the fragrance of ancient wood, but the same thing is that they are all the same lively!

When I unintentionally raised my eyes, I saw a harmonious scene, a vendor selling sugar gourds with a kind face, gently handing a sugar gourd to a small person.

Although she was so far away, she seemed to be able to faintly hear the little man's joyful laughter and see...... The brightness of that face.

Luo Lingxi was stunned, and suddenly a strange feeling poured into her heart, filling her cold heart.

The strange time and space should have felt out of place, but it was unusually reassuring, as if it was ......

It's like I've been there.

It's because when I was in modern times, I always liked some calligraphy and paintings, and even the villa was decorated like an ancient house, so I would ......

Will, do you feel like that?
