Chapter 504: Back to the Vicissitudes
After the inner chamberlain left, the people in the palace rushed up, wanting to ask the questions in their hearts, and Pearl was also strange: "Madam, how did you become the emperor's royal sister!" ”
This question happens to be everyone's question, how long has it been in the palace, how can she be so capable, first the county lord, and now she has become a princess, and her status in Canglan is not low, and now the princess's identity is more noble, and everyone is thinking about how she did it.
Su Xiaoman took the holy decree in his hand and turned his head to the pearl and said: "This is just a way to leave the land, what a name, it's all a false name, think about the vicissitudes of life, no matter how high the status is, it's not that you can't fight the femme fatale!" ”
Looking at her tired expression, Pearl didn't ask any more questions, so that the people around her scattered, and hurriedly went to the kitchen to prepare porridge and side dishes and sent them to the main courtyard for Su Xiaoman.
This matter can be regarded as settled, and the next thing to do is to return to the vicissitudes of life, Su Xiaoman has recuperated himself in the past few days, and after resting for a few days in a row, his spirit has also improved a lot.
"Madam, someone from the palace has been sent again, and he is waiting in the main hall!"
Xiao Yuan ran in from outside panting, with a joyful expression in his eyes, and shouted Su Xiaoman.
When I came to the main hall, I saw several chamberlains in the palace carrying these two big boxes from the door, Su Xiaoman sat in front of the hall, and the chamberlain stewards bowed down respectfully and said: "Princess Jin'an, this is the golden silk brocade dress and some hairpin ring jewelry that the emperor ordered the servants to send, and let the servants spread the word that they will leave for the state banquet in Canglan in two days, and the invitation has already come from Canglan, you see what else you need, and the servants will bring it to you in these two days!" ”
Saying that, the other inner guards opened the two boxes, the purple snail pearl in the South China Sea, the hollow jade hairpin in the north, the arm river in Dongyang, etc., all of which were very luxurious according to the specifications of the palace, and the gold silk brocade clothes looked even more luxurious, and even the embroidered shoes in the Western Regions were very cleverly matched.
"Well, you thank the imperial brother for me, these are enough, I see that there are seven or eight sets of gold silk brocade clothes, and the days of going to Canglan are enough!"
As he spoke, he asked Pearl to take a few ingots of silver and distribute them to a few of the inner chamberlains.
Looking at the golden silk brocade in the box, she couldn't help but think of the brocade she saw in the workshop that day, this time she must get back what she lost, even if she wants to step into the vicissitudes that once abandoned her and Lu Li, she has to regain her name.
The time came as scheduled, and in the morning, Su Xiaoman placed Lu Wangshu and a group of slaves, and the guards did not bring any of them, only Qingyu and Xiaoyuan, in order not to let people notice that they had returned to Canglan, so they left the pearl in the house to watch the house.
Early in the morning, he originally planned to wait at the palace first, but he didn't think that Wei Yuqin came to the door of the house with a large group of people, in order to travel in a low-key manner, the brigade had already set off to Canglan a day in advance, and Wei Yuqin was worried that someone would assassinate him on the way, so he specially dressed up as a caravan, and only brought ten imperial guards and two leaders of the army.
The guards at the door didn't know that Wei Yuqin was the emperor of the dynasty, and watched a group of people wearing armor and swords come to the door, and the commander Zhang Duwei stepped forward to enter the door, but was angrily reprimanded by the guards on the spot: "You can't enter without a post!" ”
Commander Zhang Duwei immediately took out the imperial token and handed it to the guard at the door, and said, "Please report to the princess, the people have arrived, and you can go!" ”
The guard was stunned, stared at the token clearly, and hurriedly bent down and agreed: "It's the subordinates who are clumsy, please wait a while!" ”
Wei Yuqin lifted the curtain and saw this scene at the door, and couldn't help but think that a little woman could control it so strictly, thinking that it was because the concubine was too deceitful, which made the guards so strict.
The guards ran all the way from the main hall to the main courtyard, at this time Su Xiaoman had finished washing, wearing a plain dress, a silk white veil on his face and ears, his eyes were full of moist eyes, and he looked as fresh and refined as a fairy descending from the earth, which made people sigh.
At this time, Pearl Zhen was at the gate of the main courtyard with Su Xiaoman's breakfast, and the guard hurriedly shouted: "Pearl girl, the master has been waiting at the door for a long time, please inform Madame to leave as soon as possible!" ”
Fortunately, I met Pearl passing by the door, otherwise this guard would have to wait for Wei Yuqin, after all, in this era, the main courtyard is not summoned, and men are not allowed to enter casually.
Pearl turned around and responded: "Okay, I'll go and report to Madame, and you go back first to report that Madame will be coming soon!" ”
"Yes!"
In terms of level, Pearl is one level higher than the guard, after all, she is Su Xiaoman's personal maid, like the big housekeeper in the house, even Grandma Pan, who takes care of Lu Wangshu, is one level lower than Pearl.
Therefore, the guards also respected her very much, and after answering the call, the guards turned around and went back.
Pearl came to the bedroom in the morning and said, "Madam, the guard has come to report that the group has arrived at the door of the house, do you think this breakfast should be packed in a food box?" ”
Su Xiaoman had already prepared the things she needed and was going to go out, so she didn't plan to use breakfast to start again, which inevitably made Wei Yuqin wait too long, so she said: "No need, you can help me take out these soft ones!" ”
Seeing that the two burdens had been packed up on the bed, Pearl put down the breakfast in his hand and stepped forward to tidy it up, specially checked to avoid leaving anything behind, and only after making sure that it was correct did he send the burden to the carriage, Su Xiaoman followed closely.
Because Lu Wangshu hadn't gotten up yet, Su Xiaoman didn't go to Chang Xiju again, so as not to trouble him if he got up and lost his temper and didn't let him go.
When Qingyu and Xiao Yuan watched the guards come to report, they first went back to their vacation, took some simple soft and softened, and were already waiting at the door.
Before leaving, Su Xiaoman said repeatedly: "Pearl, you have to keep your house well during this time, I will soon come back with him, remember, everyone who comes and goes at home must be carefully checked, no one is allowed to make mistakes, Shu'er must carefully inspect everything he eats, and be careful in everything!" ”
At this time, there were not many pedestrians on the street, which inevitably aroused suspicion, Wei Yuqin also waived all etiquette, and directly let Su Xiaoman get into the carriage, seeing her appearance in plain clothes with gauze and silk, he was really attracted by her, and was stunned.
When Su Xiaoman got into the car, he only noticed that he was a generous young master and brother going out to have fun, wearing a dark blue robe, with a light white waist seal, and a golden feather crown on his head, looking very childish, not at all like the king of a country.
Wei Yuqin thought that Su Xiaoman's gauze and silk cover completely covered her own temperament, although there was a trace of fairy in her eyes, but she was never as surprised as her face when she showed it, so she asked, "Why does the little sister cover her face?" ”
Su Xiaoman sat on Wei Yuqin's right side and said in a low voice: "Brother, I just want to cover the eyes of the old man!" ”
The group set off slowly, Su Xiaoman lifted the curtain, and watched Pearl enter the house and ordered someone to close the door, so he turned back with confidence.
Seeing her worried look, she asked, "Little sister is worried about the people in the house?" ”
Su Xiaoman nodded slightly.
Wei Yuqin said again: "Little sister, don't worry, your brother has already sent someone to guard him in private, let's go to Canglan during this time, you can let go and do what you want to do!" ”
Whether it was true or not, at least Wei Yuqin gave her a reason to feel at ease, there was a bump on the way, Xiao Yuan kept vomiting, fortunately, Commander Zhang brought a good medicine for nausea for her to take, but Su Xiaoman still couldn't bear to let her sit on horseback, looked at Xiao Yuan's pale face sideways, turned to Wei Yuqin and said: "Brother, my little maid is still young and doesn't know this equestrian skill, can you let her get into the carriage and set off again?" ”
Wei Yuqin saw the worry in her heart, nodded and agreed, "Stop!" ”
Su Xiaoman lifted the curtain and said to Xiao Yuan, who was sleepy on horseback: "Xiao Yuan, come and sit in the carriage, you and Qingyu ride the same horse, she is uncomfortable, and you are also uncomfortable!" ”
Commander Zhang helped Xiao Yuan off the horse, set up a low stool and helped Xiao Yuan into the carriage, and Xiao Yuan fell asleep in the carriage along the way, passing through three post stations on the way, which can be regarded as letting Xiao Yuan rest enough.
Until the people arrived in Canglan, the group did not go to live in the official translator who had placed Wei Yuqin in Canglan Kingdom, but found another inn with a smaller population.
After observing Canglan for a day, Su Xiaoman also heard the news he wanted to know, it turned out that Xue Xiuhua secretly blocked all the news of the farming, planting and garment workshops that he had swallowed, and those who were loyal to Su Xiaoman were all arrested and imprisoned, and other people who were trying to make a living surrendered one after another, and Lu Li was arrested in the water prison of the palace, and the spy reported that he had been tortured, that is, he was not allowed to lose his breath, and every time he was about to lose his breath, Xue Xiuhua would send the imperial doctor to diagnose and treat him, always dragging his breath, Thinking of this, Su Xiaoman clenched his fists fiercely, and secretly swore in his heart that if he didn't seek justice for Lu Li, Su Xiaoman would not be a person.
But Su Xiaoman didn't complain that they were angry or resentful because of the persecution of the powerful, who didn't have a difficult scripture to read, even the emperor of the Sulfur Yuan Kingdom in front of him had his own sorrows.
Looking at the bustling street scene, such a luxurious layout, it must have been handled by Xue Xiuhua, Chu Yu, who has always advocated frugality, never thought of being so extravagant and wasteful.
Su Xiaoman, who was standing in front of the window in a daze, didn't notice that someone had entered the room, just looked at all the familiar scenes in front of him and the person he loved was suffering from prison, and he was out of his mind.
"Little sister, tomorrow we are going to enter the palace to see Chu Yu, you have to be ready!"
When he came back to his senses, he saw Wei Yuqin's tall figure leaning against the door, swaying with a landscape fan in his hand.
"Brother, can the little sister enter the palace with a mask tomorrow, if he asks, you will say that I am tired and sick on the way, and I don't want others to know that I have returned to Canglan, otherwise this trip will definitely be dangerous!"
