Early the next morning, Xu Qingyan had just had breakfast, and she heard Yan Bo report that someone was coming from the palace, and Xu Qingyan was busy dressing up and took Lingxian and Zelan to the gate.

Today, the Holy Lord held a banquet in the Changle Hall to celebrate the merits of these meritorious ministers, and to show their importance and grace, so he specially sent a carriage from the palace to pick them up.

Outside the gate was a simple and heavy brown and red carriage, in front of which stood two white-faced and beardless eunuchs and a coachman.

Seeing Xu Qingyan come out, the three of them hurriedly bowed and saluted: "The slave has seen the county master." “

Xu Qingyan raised her hand slightly, signaling that she would be exempted.

After the salute, the slightly older eunuch stepped forward and said, "The emperor sent the servants to pick up the county lord into the palace, but I don't know if the county lord is ready." “

Xu Qingyan hummed lightly: "Let's go." With that, he took the two girls and boarded the carriage.

Because today is not a state banquet, so the ladies who enter the palace can bring Yahuan, originally Xu Qingyan didn't want to take the two Lingxian to go, but the two girls have never entered the palace, when they heard that they could take Yahuan into the palace, they were busy begging Xu Qingyan to take them to see and see, and under their entanglement, Xu Qingyan finally had to lose.

However, the palace is not as good as the outside, these two girls have always been used to following her freely, and the distance is very sparse.

She doesn't know much about the partial life rule, even if she can't hold the Buddha's feet temporarily, in desperation, she has to stare at the two of them after entering the palace, be cautious in words and deeds, see more and talk less.

The two girls were full of promises.

The carriage space was very large, more than double the size of the carriage they usually sat in, and the three masters and servants sat in it with a very open view, and the cushions under them were also soft and comfortable.

Maybe the wheels are made of particular materials, and the carriage doesn't feel bumpy at all.

Two quarters of an hour later, the carriage stopped in front of the magnificent palace gate: "County lord, the palace gate has arrived." ”

Xu Qingyan flicked the gauze curtain when she heard this, drilled out, and the two eunuchs stepped forward, and just bent down to give Xu Qingyan the horseman stool, she saw that Xu Qingyan had jumped off the side of the carriage.

The two of them were stunned for a moment and stood up and said, "County Lord, it's still early before the luncheon, and the servants will lead you to the Imperial Garden first, and many ladies and ladies are enjoying the scenery there." “

"Okay, there's Father-in-law." Xu Qingyan bowed her head, then took out two medicine bottles from her satchel and handed them to the two of them: "Just now, I saw that the two fathers-in-law seem to have cold symptoms in their waists, so I will give this medicine to the two of them, five drops a day, and taking it for a month can cure this disease,"

The two eunuchs were flattered and took the medicine bottle and bowed down to thank them.

The palace gate was not far from the imperial garden, but it was not close, and Xu Qingyan followed the two people who were waiting for nearly two quarters of an hour before arriving.

The Imperial Garden is located in the center of the entire Imperial Palace, and the garden is full of strange stones, beautiful trees, and its ancient cypress vines are scattered throughout the garden.

The roads in the park are carefully paved with pebbles of different colors, and the stones of various colors form different patterns, including characters, flowers, scenes, and allusions, and they are interesting to watch along the road.

Today's sunny day is good, the strange flowers in the imperial garden are contending, and the ladies and ladies are sitting or standing, gathering in twos and threes, talking about some gossip.

As soon as Xu Qingyan stepped into the garden, she heard someone gossiping about her.

"You say, can the county lord of Le'an still marry after this incident?" Mao Yidie sat under the porch and said gloatingly.

A green-clothed girl pinched her handkerchief and chuckled: "You can marry yourself, but if you want to marry as you wish or get high, it's not easy." “

"But no, with her current reputation, who else dares to hire her." A red-shirted girl covered her mouth and smiled.

As her voice fell, there was a burst of laughter in the corridor.

Xu Qingyan listened from afar, only to feel that her heart was on fire, and said coldly: "What's wrong with my reputation, let everyone talk about it so much." ”

The women were startled when they heard this, and when they looked up, they saw Xu Qingyan, who was wearing a green shirt, on the five-colored stone paved road in front of them, with an indescribable momentum, coming towards her.

Gossiping behind her back, and being caught by the main owner, all the noble girls immediately lowered their heads weakly, not daring to look at Xu Qingyan.

To be honest, Xu Qingyan is a county lord with a high level of command, but it is not something that these white bodies can criticize in private, at least not on the surface.

Xu Qingyan walked into the corridor with Lingxian and Zelan, and when she saw the women sitting on the railing silently, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, and said indifferently: "Why didn't I speak as soon as I came, didn't you speak very vigorously just now, you guys are going to explain to me, what's wrong with my reputation?" ”

There was silence in the air, no one spoke.

Seeing that none of them spoke, Xu Qingyan glanced at Mao Yidie on the left, and said lightly: "Since it was the topic that Miss Mao provoked just now, then you will answer my question." “

When Mao Yidie heard this, he muttered indignantly: "Originally, I was not wrong, you participated in the Xiangshan competition, what kind of reputation can you have." ”

Xu Qingyan was puzzled when she heard this, and she didn't understand what the Xiangshan competition had to do with her reputation.

"You make it clear to me, what does it mean to have a bad reputation if you participate in the Xiangshan competition, and what does the Xiangshan competition have to do with fame?"

Xu Qingyan really didn't know, but Mao Yidie thought that she was deliberately making things difficult, and got up and sarcastically when she heard the words: "Why should the county lord pretend to be confused, you spend the night on the mountain alone with many men, and you still want to leave a clean reputation." ”

She said this in such a loud voice that the people around her who were watching the scenery turned their heads to look at it.

Just with Ge Shurong and a few people, the Xinrou County Lord who came from Wanchun Pavilion listened to Mao Yidie's words, and hurriedly turned out from behind the rockery and went down the corridor.

Ge Shurong and the others stood in place, their faces complicated, and they did not step forward with the county lord of Xinrou.

Xu Qingyan's eyes narrowed slightly, no wonder when the roll call was taken before the competition that day, Emperor Zhou Qingdi asked her with a complicated face, can you complain?

She didn't understand what Emperor Zhou Qing meant at the time, but now that she has come back to her senses, it turns out that Emperor Zhou Qing also felt that this move would cause her to lose her reputation, so she asked her if she complained.

But the reputation is not very important to Xu Qingyan, a crossing girl who is open-minded.

For her, even if her reputation is ruined, no one dares to marry.

She has the ability and ability to support herself and live a free life, which is never a problem.

I'm afraid that the native Xu family won't be able to accept it, so she can't let her reputation be tarnished like this.

But just as she wanted to open her mouth to fight back, she suddenly heard someone behind her calling her, "Qingyan." “

Xu Qingyan turned around and saw that it was the county lord of Xinrou, so she smiled back.

The county lord of Xinrou ran into the corridor in a few steps, grabbed Xu Qingyan's arm affectionately, and then said coldly to Mao Yidie, who was standing aside, and said: "Qingyan's participation in the Xiangshan hunt was appointed by the emperor. ”

When the women heard this, their faces turned pale.

Yes, how did they forget that Xu Qingyan was ordered to go, if the emperor knew that they were behind their backs.......... 2k reading web
