Chapter 499: Hosta
In the hall, the queen mother sat on the Luohan couch, and the palace maid was helping her fan.
Princess Yun stepped forward, blessed the body to salute the Queen Mother, and said, "I haven't entered the palace for a long time to greet the Queen Mother, is the Queen Mother in better health?" ”
"It's much better," the Queen Mother smiled.
"Give a seat."
Princess Yun thanked the Queen Mother, and then sat down.
The palace maid served tea, and after Princess Yun took two sips, she couldn't help but ask, "I don't know if the queen mother summoned her concubines into the palace?" ”
The Queen Mother smiled and praised the prince of Chongguo.
Princess Yun had a little guess in her heart, and her face was not very good-looking.
"Hong'er has reached the age of marrying a wife, and the Chongguo Mansion is looking for a wife for him, and the first one in the mourning family thought of the lord of Fuyun, she grew up in the mourning family, she is well-behaved and sensible, and she is very happy with the mourning family, and the mourning family wants to pull a red thread for them."
"What does Princess Yun mean?" The Queen Mother asked.
Princess Yun was a little apprehensive.
Although the Queen Mother was asking, it wasn't really asking for her consent.
What the Queen Mother wanted was Princess Yun nodding.
But this head, Princess Yun can't order it.
Although Chongguo Gong has not fallen, in Princess Yun's opinion, he has already gone to the general trend, even if he doesn't, Princess Yun doesn't want to marry her beloved palm pearl to Chongguo Gong's son.
But what it takes to refuse the Queen Mother is not ordinary guts and courage.
Princess Yun was not very bold, and her voice trembled a little when she rejected the Queen Mother, "It is an honor for Fuyun and Yunwangfu to be valued by the Queen Mother, but Fuyun is ...... her." ”
Before Princess Yun finished speaking, a little father-in-law stepped forward and said, "Queen Mother, the concubine is here." ”
Li Guifei?
What is she doing in Yongning Palace?
The Queen Mother frowned slightly.
"Let her in," the Queen Mother said.
The little father-in-law withdrew, and Concubine Li Guifei walked in with the hand of the palace maid and stepped forward to greet the queen mother.
The Queen Mother looked at her and said, "Concubine Li Guifei is busy with harem affairs, why did she come to the Yongning Palace of the mourning family?" ”
Li Guifei praised Su Jin with a smile.
"Thanks to the mahjong of the princess of Zhenbei Wang, the harem concubines have a pastime to pass the time in this scorching sun, the harem is harmonious, and the concubines manage the harem much easier than when the queen is in charge of the phoenix seal, and the concubines are bored, thinking that they haven't come to the queen mother for two days, so I came to ask for peace."
The Queen Mother dislikes Su Jin, and everyone in the palace knows it.
Li Guifei praised Su Jin in front of the Queen Mother, but she deliberately made the Queen Mother unhappy.
If the queen mother is not happy, the emperor will be happy.
The emperor is happy, so he will not easily take back the phoenix seal.
The Queen Mother's face was a little gloomy, and Concubine Li's eyes looked at Princess Yun.
Princess Yun got up to greet Concubine Li.
Concubine Li Guifei knew what the Queen Mother had summoned Princess Yun to the palace.
There is also her eyeliner in the Yongning Palace.
The Queen Mother came to Princess Yun to protect the media, and Concubine Li Guifei pinched this time, naturally wanting to gag and stir up this family matter.
Concubine Li Guifei smiled, "Am I here at the wrong time to disturb the Queen Mother and Princess Yun to talk?" ”
"No, the Queen Mother summoned me to the palace just for gossip," Princess Yun said with a smile.
Princess Yun looked at the Queen Mother and said, "Thanks to the Queen Mother, a few days ago, the prince also told me that the Marquis of Jibei asked to marry Fuyun for his grandson, and the prince said that he would give a reply after considering a few days, and I don't know if the prince should respond to the Marquis of Jibei." ”
A chill flashed in the Queen Mother's eyes.
To say that it is to consider, in fact, it is to refuse.
It's just that Princess Yun used the Marquis of Jibei as a pretense, and the Queen Mother couldn't ask Princess Yun to promise to marry the lord of Fuyun to the prince of Chongguo and take the Marquis of Jibei's marriage proposal inappropriately.
The Queen Mother took a sip of tea, and Concubine Li talked about something else, and no one mentioned the matter of marrying the lord of Fuyun again.
Golden Jade Pavilion.
Su Chong rode his horse and stopped in front of the door.
After dismounting, he walked straight inside.
He took out a slip from his bosom and handed it to the young man.
The young man said, "Wait a minute, I'll go and get the jewelry from the list." ”
A few days ago, the emperor rewarded Su Jin with a lot of rubies.
On a whim, Su Jin drew a golden hairpin and a pair of earrings and gave them to Tang.
She sent the rubies and drawings to the Golden Jade Pavilion and asked the Golden Jade Pavilion to customize.
The list was stuffed to Su Chong and asked him to take it on his behalf.
He came to take jewelry.
The young man went to get the jewelry, Su Chongzhi was bored, and planned to go upstairs to have a look.
As a result, he went up the steps, and the Lord of Fuyun happened to come down the steps.
The eyes are facing each other.
The two of them invariably remembered the scene of the carriage accident.
A red cloud rose on the face of the Lord of Fuyun County, because of the panic, he didn't step on his feet steadily, and his body fell to the side.
She didn't fall, but the jewelry box in her hand flew out.
Su Chong turned over beautifully and caught the jewelry box.
Well.
The posture is handsome and impeccable.
But it didn't turn out that well.
The jewelry box of the Lord of Fuyun is custom-made, like a matchbox.
Su Jin held the jewelry box, but the layer containing the jewelry slipped down.
Click.
The box fell to the ground.
The white hosta inside was broken into several pieces.
Su Chong, "....... ”
Lord Fuyun, "......." ”
How chic Su Chong was when he received the jewelry box just now, how embarrassing it was at this moment.
The hand is still in the position of grasping the jewelry box.
Su Chong silently took his hand back.
The King of Fuyun County blushed and could drip blood.
She was hesitant to thank Su Chong.
Thank you.
Yu Pei did not survive.
Don't thank you.
After all, they reached out, although it didn't work out.
But her steps felt like they were nailed to the ground.
"County Lord?" The maid called.
The lord of Fuyun County lowered his head, quickly descended the steps, and walked away from Su Chong.
The maid still felt sorry for the destruction of the hosta, but the lord of Fuyun County walked too fast, and she didn't have a chance to pick up the broken hosta.
There are people who pick up jewelry and secretly cover their mouths and smile.
Su Chong bent down to pick up the broken hosta.
The young man over there brought the jewelry and said, "I've kept the guest waiting." ”
Su Chong handed the hosta to the young man and asked, "Can it be repaired?" ”
The young man looked at the degree of fracture of the hosta, shook his head and said, "It can't be repaired, even if this hosta is repaired, it is ugly, and there is no need to repair it." ”
"It can't be fixed, so it's always okay to reorder an identical one, right?" Su Chongdao.
"Yes."
The young man wrote a list, collected a deposit of fifty taels, and asked Su Chong to take it ten days later.
The maid helped the county lord of Yun to get into the carriage and said, "County lord, the hosta you picked for the princess was broken, what about the princess's birthday gift?" ”
The Lord of Fuyun didn't know what to do.
If it weren't for Su Chong, she would definitely go back and pick another one, but Su Chong was here, she didn't have the guts.
"You buy the green hosta I fancy before," said the lord of Fuyun County.
"I'll go home first."
The coachman drove the carriage away, and the maid watched the carriage go away.
The carriage walked on the front foot, and Su Chong came out on the back foot.
He rolled over his horse and walked the other way.
Along the way, I saw that there were stalls selling jewelry, as well as carved wooden hairpins.
He thought about it, rode to a wood shop, and picked out a piece of fine rosewood.
