Chapter 9, Face King
When I arrived near Jingren Palace, I saw from a distance that there were fifty or sixty imperial guards standing outside the main gate, as well as bright yellow shoulders, and Luan honor guards holding bright yellow canopies and red koji lids, all standing motionless under the scorching sun.
With such a style, if you think about it with your toes, you can know that it is the emperor who is coming.
The main gate was blocked, and Su Lian and Wu Yashi entered Jingren Palace through the west gate, but they saw that Mama Gao next to Tong's side was waiting in the west hall! Mama Gao saluted: "Say hello to the two little masters!" Niangniang invited Little Master Su to the main hall. ”
Go...... Main hall?! Su Lian froze.
Wu Ya's noble face also condensed slightly, but then returned to his usual appearance and appearance, and said with a smile: "Mama Gao also saw the appearance of Su agreeing, this look is really rude to see the Holy Driver, and wait to freshen up and change your clothes." ”
Mama Gao nodded yes, "Please be faster." ”
Wuya nobleman pulled the Su curtain into the inner room, and the embroidered eyebrows that could not hide the joy quickly took out a new dress from head to toe from the wardrobe, which was the craftsmanship of Jingren Palace's needlework and mamma, and had not yet been on the body, it was a set of water-blue silk clothes, silver trimming, auspicious buttons, and delicate and beautiful magnolia embroidered on the top. Diancui came in with water, waited for Su Curtain to wash his face, Fu Fan wiped the fat, traced his eyebrows and lips, and combed a slightly formal shelf.
Su Lian was uneasy, although she had lived for so many years in her previous life, she had never met the head of state face-to-face! What's more, this is the feudal era, and the emperor has the power of life and death! Therefore, it was dressed up like a puppet.
Wu Ya Guiren smiled and pointed out what kind of jewelry to use for embroidered eyebrows, and said softly: "Sister Su, although you can go with peace of mind, Tong Niangniang has the heart to support you." Now I want you to show your face in front of the emperor, don't be afraid, don't worry, there is still a long way to go. ”
Listening to Wu Ya's gentle words, Su Lian also relaxed a little. Isn't it just a meeting? It's not going to be pressed right away......
The noble Wuya watched Su Curtain go out of the side hall, looked at the direction of the main hall, and there was a thin wisp of mist surging up at his moment, and then he still smiled gently and dignifiedly: "Sister, let's go, there is a mother here." ”
Mama Gao led the way, but Su Lian only bowed her head and said nothing, thinking that she couldn't look up when she went later.
Waiting outside the main hall for a while, Mama Gao went in to reply, and Shaoqing came out to invite Su Curtain in. The emperor was not in the main hall of the hall, but in the first room, stopped outside the Wanfu Wanshou floor cover between the previous times, and Mama Gao knelt outside the floor cover and replied: "Your Majesty, Niangniang, Xiao Master Su has come to ask for peace." ”
Through the floor cover, Su Curtain can see the arhat collapse of the rosewood carved Xianyun Mountain sea pattern inlaid with luodian, the ivory mat is placed on the couch, and a small case of eight immortals is placed in the middle, there is a melon and fruit hot tea on the case, and a small mud gold lavender stove in the style of a small lying Pixiu, which is slowly soaking in wisps of agarwood.
People can sit on both sides of the case, Concubine Tong sits on the west side, wearing purple and red clothes, looking at the vague peony rich and noble pattern, the emperor is in the east of the small case, can only see the silhouette, the clothes are not bright yellow, but dark blue satin material, embroidered with the silver dragon pattern of the water and river, it seems to be homely clothes.
It was not the emperor who spoke immediately, but Concubine Tong, and her tone was a little more gentle and tactful than usual: "Come in." ”
Mama Gao got up and said to Su Curtain in a very low voice: "Little master, go in with confidence, long live you are in a good mood today." ”
Su Lian can only bite the bullet now, but fortunately, she has a full set of court etiquette in her memory, and she will not make a big mistake. When I entered, I felt that it was much cooler inside, and it turned out that there were two huge blue and white porcelain vats between them, which were full of large square ice cubes, revealing wisps of mist-like coolness.
Su Lian didn't raise his head, and knelt down directly. Alas, how can a man not bow his head under the eaves? When it comes to the evil old society, the knees can't be too hard.
"The slave invites the emperor to be safe, and the mother is to be safe." A "minion" called Su Lian uncomfortable, but what can be done, in front of the emperor, everyone in the world is his minion! Don't say that it's a seven-grade small promise, even if it's an imperial concubine who does the right thing, she can only call herself a "slave" - unless you become a queen.
Su Curtain knelt down and lowered his head again, and he could only see the emperor's boots, which were sea blue, and the dragon was embroidered with gold thread on them, and the gold was shaking, which was a little dazzling. Su Lian slandered in his heart: Wearing boots on dog days will kill you to death!!
On the side, Tong Shi spoke softly and said to the emperor: "This is Su agreed, the sister of Ussuri Actun." ”
The emperor put down the teacup, holding a string of topaz eighteen arhat bracelets in his hand, and there was no match, he hummed lightly, and said lightly: "Let's get up." ”
"Yes." Su Lian got up, still bowing his head vigorously and retreating behind Concubine Tong.
Tong smiled softly, "She's good anywhere, but she's too quiet." (The Gatton is for river crab protection...... I don't know why this word isn't allowed! )
The emperor didn't answer: "There is a locust plague in Shaanxi, and Concubine Niu proposed to me yesterday to 'release yin', and I have already agreed." You watched and let a group of palace maids go out. ”
Tong may have been taken aback by this accident, but immediately returned to his expression and said gently: "Sister Niu has a heart." ”
Su Lian listened carefully, and his heart fluctuated: let go of yin - women are yin, too much yin in the palace is unknown, in the event of a disaster, there will be a "yin" thing, that is, the palace maid who is not yet twenty-five years old will be released from the palace in advance, this proposal of Concubine Niu...... I'm afraid it's not just to show your kindness.
Suddenly, Tong's face turned sideways: "I heard Xu Chang'an say, you and Wu Ya just went to Wanchun Pavilion and met Concubine Niu?" ”
Su Lian froze, she thought that she would be an invisible person if she had asked for peace, but she didn't expect Tong Shi to ask such a sentence at first glance. He was stunned for a moment before he hurriedly responded: "Yes!" Immediately, she was shocked by Tong's eyesight in the palace, and what had just happened in the morning entered her ears in a blink of an eye.
Tong smiled at the emperor and said, "Those minions are really not responsible, Sister Niu is sick and weak, and it is such a hot day?" It's not good if you get heat. ”
"It's okay!" The emperor's tone was still light and casual, "The court sentenced Lou Ji to reply before his death, Concubine Niu's health has improved a lot. ”
Tong's face was a little embarrassed, and he felt that the situation was not good for a while, and after a little contemplation, he said to the emperor: "A few days ago, on the slave's birthday, Sister Niu sent ...... The pair of dragons and phoenixes and the jade cup of Ming. ”
The bracelet in the emperor's hand suddenly stopped, and Tong lowered his head and said ashamedly: "That thing, the slave really shouldn't take it, but if it is returned to Sister Niu, I am afraid that it will hurt the sisterhood, and the slave is in ......a dilemma" Saying that, Tong secretly glanced at the emperor, and saw that the emperor's face was no different, so he said cautiously: "Can the emperor return the slave to Sister Niu?" ”
The emperor paused for a moment before saying, "It's just about the cup, don't care too much." ”
Although the emperor said so, Su Lian felt that the Tong family was still a little tight. Su Lian's son was a little sympathetic to the Tong family, she thought that the Tong family, as the emperor's cousin, should at least have some special treatment, but she didn't expect to be called a "slave", and she was more cautious when facing the emperor, and she didn't dare to make the slightest mistake. No wonder Empress Xiao Yiren in history was so short-lived, she lived so tired all day, where could she live a long life?
Tong Shi was not sure how to answer for a while, and he was afraid that the scene would freeze, so he aimed at Su Lian again.
Su Lian lamented again, can you two treat me as an invisible person? The answer is obviously no......
Tong asked Su Curtain with a smile: "You saw Concubine Niu immediately, can you see that her improvement is better than in the past?" ”
