Chapter 5: Entering the Palace Gate (2)

You Ran had the illusion of being put on a show by her relatives, which made Xiao Yuexi's heart a little panicked. She doesn't really care who her family wants to marry her, she just hates this kind of behavior of not saying hello.

Thinking about it carefully, Xiao Yixuan stayed in the capital this time and didn't leave, and after the incident, he hid out as a thief, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't feel right...... Since Xiao Yixuan had been preparing to send her to the palace for a long time, why did he hide it and not let her know?

Are you afraid that she will not agree?

No way! As a brother, it is impossible for Xiao Yixi not to understand his sister's thoughts, if he really wants her to marry, even if he marries a beggar, Xiao Yuexi will not say a word......

From beginning to end, there were so many suspicious points that Xiao Yuexi couldn't count them, if it wasn't a conspiracy, it was really a hell!

Xiao Yuexi had a lot of thoughts in her mind, but the time was only for a moment, Ji Bingxin heard the resentment in her tone, her eyes flashed, and she said: "There are many things that the courtiers don't know, and they can't solve the confusion for their wife." ”

Xiao Yuexi felt that if she continued to talk to Ji Bingxin, she would talk crazy about herself first, Ji Bingxin's low-eyed appearance made her spine chill for a while, and she rushed out of the room almost like running away, until she ran back to her room, and she calmed down a little.

Mu Lan, who has been jumping around all year round, was unusually cramped and uneasy at the moment, standing aside and cautiously peeking at Xiao Yuexi at a glance.

"What is this?" Xiao Yuexi raised her hand and pointed to the shelf standing in the middle of the room, on which hung a set of heavy clothes, looking at the style and workmanship, it was not difficult to guess that it was from the palace.

Mu Kom was already timid, but she didn't dare to say anything at this time, Mu Lan pulled her for a long time to no avail, so she had to tremble and tremble and say, "Miss, this is ...... It's what you're going to wear when you enter the palace tomorrow. ”

I thought that after being deceived for so long, Xiao Yuexi would definitely have a seizure, but I didn't want her to be unusually calm at this time, so calm that it was unreal.

"You guys go out first."

Mu Lan pulled up the cardamom and was about to leave, but after taking two steps, she paused as if she remembered something, and looked back at Xiao Yuexi.

Xiao Yuexi glanced at her and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"That...... Tomorrow when you have to get up and freshen up, enter the palace gate at the time of the hour, there is a ceremony of being sealed, and after the end, you have to go to the longevity hall to thank the queen mother, and you have to toss all day to settle down...... Miss, have a good rest, recuperate your spirits, don't ......"

Xiao Yuexi patiently heard that now, she couldn't help it for a long time, and waved her hand and said, "I know!" And he drove them all out.

Even if she rarely understands the rules of the palace over the years, she also knows that Mu Lan's words should have been sent by the palace to teach her aunt, and as a person who is about to enter the palace as a concubine, shouldn't she learn some etiquette rules in advance?

Ji Bingxin seemed to think so, but after only one morning, Xiao Yuexi was sent out by her brother, and she has been out in the wild for two months since then!

Xiao Yuexi paced back and forth in the room a little broken, resisting the urge to tear the pile of clothes on the shelf, and irritably looked at the dresser, which made her even more irritable.

On her dressing table, which had been empty, was now on a whole set of lavish headdresses, which had obviously been sent with the palace dress, and they were all the same eyesore.

Xiao Yuexi felt that she couldn't stay here any longer, and the urge to destroy it had reached an uncontrollable level.

Pushing the door open, I saw two families standing silently outside the door. One of them looked at Xiao Yuexi with a wary face, and said respectfully: "Miss, Madam has instructed you to have a good rest, so don't go out." ”

Xiao Yuexi didn't say a word, and locked herself in the room again.

Beyond those eyesore, Xiao Yuexi buried herself in the quilt, and one trip was a whole day, and the water and rice did not enter.

She was not the kind of person who was sad about the spring and autumn, but when she suddenly encountered such a thing, she was choked in her heart, and she couldn't eat a mouthful of anything.

After all, she was the chief envoy of the Ministry of Prison, and Ji Bingxin was not worried that she would starve to death because she didn't eat for a day, so she didn't worry at all, and ordered her subordinates to let her go.

By the time Mu Lan and Mu Kom came to knock on the door the next day, Xiao Yuexi had already put on a calm face, and accepted his unknown future with great indifference.

Until Xiao Yuexi sat in the palace and was carried away, Xiao Yixuan did not show up.

His Majesty the famous emperor sat in a high position, and he couldn't see any emotion, but the queen was very amiable, and after the ceremony, he took Xiao Yuexi's hand and said "private words" for a while, and the appearance of being like a sister made Xiao Yuexi in a trance.

Mu Yunqing is really not favored, before he succeeded to the throne, he didn't even have a warm bed, and after succeeding to the throne, he did his best to keep the mourning period of the first emperor to the fullest, and then he married the queen in accordance with the wishes of the queen mother. If you just talk about filial piety, Mu Yun can be a role model, although he is not favored, he is willing to keep filial piety for the first emperor; Although the Queen Mother is not her own mother, she is willing to act according to her wishes.

After the greetings, Xiao Yuexi turned around to meet the Queen Mother.

Different from the luxury and grandeur of the Jiaofang Palace, the Longevity Hall appears to be extremely simple, stepping into the inner hall, the sandalwood fragrance is clear and clear, which can instantly make people's hearts sink into a pool of stagnant water, and can not set off any waves.

The queen mother was wearing simple clothes, with a string of Buddha beads in her hand, looking like she was ignoring mundane things and devoting herself to the Buddha, even if she saw Xiao Yuexi, she didn't react too much, but said coldly: "The emperor allowed you to enter the palace, and you were sealed to such a high position, it stands to reason that it is not in accordance with the rules." Although the emperor was weaker, he had never asked the mourning family for anything, and this time he begged, and the mourning family had to rely on him once. ”

Xiao Yuexi was confused for a while when she said this, but before she had time to think deeply, she heard the Queen Mother say with some warnings: "How you behaved when you were young, you should still remember how you have behaved over the years, and the mourning family also knows." Now that you have entered the palace, if you don't know how to converge, don't blame the mourning family for not being emotional! ”

Xiao Yuexi couldn't say a word except for saying yes one by one quietly. I don't know if it's because of the constraints of palace clothes, or because of this unfamiliar environment, but in one day, Xiao Yuexi already has a feeling of suffocation.

The day went by extraordinarily long.

By the time it was easy to get rid of the burden, it was already afternoon.

This precedent-setting Mrs. Xiao was placed in the Zhaoyang Palace, which is very close to the Qingliang Hall where His Majesty the Emperor lives, and it can be said that she occupies a unique feng shui treasure.

It's a pity that Xiao Yuexi herself didn't have any feelings about this, and while urging Mu Ko to help her remove the complicated bun, she unconsciously played with a pair of silver bells.

Entering the palace and being sealed, her soft whip was inconvenient to wear close to her body, Xiao Yuexi asked Mu Lan to put away her soft whip, but she still took off the silver bell on it and kept it close to herself.

When Mu Lan saw it, she couldn't help but wonder: "Speaking of which, the slave has always wanted to ask, where did this silver bell come from?" It's not a lot of expensive things, why hasn't Mrs. thrown it away for so many years? ”

Xiao Yuexi didn't answer, but just took the silver bell into her arms with some irritability.

The air pressure was too low, Mu Lan shrank her neck in fright, and didn't dare to say more, just handed over the cold tea. While rubbing Xiao Yuexi's shoulders to relieve her fatigue, Mu Ko asked cautiously: "Madam, the small kitchen has sent some snacks, do you want to pad them first?" ”

Xiao Yuexi waved her hand and said very disturbingly: "You all go out, let me be alone for a while." ”

Mu Lan Wooden Comom glanced at each other, hesitated for a moment, and quickly fled on the edge of Xiao Yuexi's outburst.

After finally calming down, Xiao Yuexi was surprised to find that the layout and decoration of Zhaoyang Hall were so kind, whether it was the exquisite courtyard or the furnishings in the hall, almost all of them imitated the regulations of the General's Mansion, and the people who designed these were really well-intentioned!

The bottom of my heart became more and more complicated, the face that was cramped and uneasy and holding a pair of silver bells could not overlap with the face sitting on the main seat of the Jiaofang Hall today, obviously there was no change, but it always felt that something had changed......

The sound of opening the door alarmed the pensive Xiao Yuexi, her face was unhappy, and she didn't look back and said coldly: "I said don't come in and disturb me!" Is it all a deaf ear? ”

The one who stirred Mrs. Xiao's contemplation was not frightened by her aura at all, but walked closer and closer. Xiao Yuexi was suddenly furious, planning to see which one of the killers was so impatient, and was in a hurry to hit the gunfire, but when he turned around, he was stunned on the spot.

The person who killed a thousand knives had a harmless face, and stepped into her palace in a bright yellow dress, with a smile in his eyes, and his mouth was unforgiving: "What? Madame seems to have a problem with my decision, huh? ”

Xiao Yuexi stiffly pressed the urge to beat people and curtsied.

"Imperial ......"

"Hey!" Mu Yun grabbed Xiao Yuexi lightly and refused to accept her gift. "I don't call myself 'I' in front of you, and you don't have to follow me with such rules. Sit! I heard you don't have an appetite and won't eat? ”

Xiao Yuexi was about to answer a few words as usual, but suddenly noticed something, and was speechless in an instant.

Sensing her abnormality, Mu Yunqing also seemed to be nervous, and took half a step back, carefully paying attention to Xiao Yuexi's expression. But he didn't want to, Xiao Yuexi suddenly took a big step forward and grabbed his placket, and the distance between the two was very close.

"Yueyuexi...... You, what do you do? Mu Yunqing was so nervous that his neck stiffened, he lowered his eyes and looked at Xiao Yuexi, who was only on his chest, and vaguely guessed something, the clarity in his eyes flashed, and then changed to a cramped look. Don't hit me...... I asked General Xiao to hide it from you, too, and because ......"

Xiao Yuexi let go of her hand and took two steps back, raising her head and looking at Mu Yunqing's eyes for a moment. His eyes were as usual with a hint of timidity in his wanderings, and he spoke in the same way as usual.

But......
