Chapter 40: Entering the Palace for the First Time
Mo Yan pondered on the carriage, watching the carriage slowly drive into the palace gate, the splendid palace showed the nobility of the royal family, the palace walls were very high, and the Praetorian Guards guarded the entire palace in a five-step manner.
The blue bricks are paved on the ground, the palace ban is deep and strict, looking at the high palace wall, there is a sense of breathless depression.
When her carriage drove into the palace gate, she saw the minister and his wife walking on the road, which seemed to be the special feature of the Jingwen Marquis's Mansion.
Some ministers looked at the carriage enviously, this Jingwenhou family really won the sacred heart! It is said that today's palace banquet not only celebrates the birthday of Prince Xuan, but also celebrates the birthday of Miss Jingwenhou.
To be born in the same year, month and day as the prince, what a fate!
Before the carriage arrived at the harem, it was inconvenient for Marquis Jingwen to enter, so he went to the imperial study to find the emperor and discuss state affairs.
Along the way, we passed countless majestic and splendid palaces, which were inhabited by countless concubines, some of whom were favored and some of whom were out of favor. But the three thousand beauties of this harem are just canaries living in gorgeous cages.
The carriage stopped in front of a palace, and the plaque was engraved with a flowing calligraphy font, on which were written the three words Fengluan Palace, which was the palace of the queen of the dynasty.
Mrs. Jingwenhou and the old lady are both women who have seen the world and do not let women have eyebrows, they calmly walked into Fengluan Palace with Mo Yan, without the slightest fear or shock in their eyes, just like walking into an ordinary minister's mansion.
At today's palace banquet, Mo Yu, the concubine of Jingwenhou's mansion, did not appear, but studied at home, striving to win this year's civil and military champion, after all, Jingwenhou is a general with troops, and he is strong in force. The tiger father has no dogs, Mo Yu and Mo Yan have been practicing martial arts with their father since they were children, and now he is good at kung fu and has a strong body, compared to the body of those gentlemen who are like medicine jars, Mo Yu alone can beat at least the three of them.
The intrigue scene was very boring, and it was better to study at home. However, Mo Yu, the younger brother, still thoughtfully prepared a birthday gift for his sister, quietly put it in the room, and waited for her to open it.
Mo Yan, who was dressed in sea yarn, walked into Fengluan Palace, and when she looked up, she saw two palace maids wearing pink palace clothes, standing beside the queen, as if they were the queen's henchmen.
The high beams support the whole palace, the eaves of the corners of the palace, the finely carved tables and chairs, each of which is made of precious rosewood, which is extremely precious, and the price is even more high, and the palace is placed with precious famous paintings and antiques, which are antique, and can show the dignity of the queen.
"The courtiers meet the queen!"
"The courtiers meet the queen!"
Mo Yan bowed, and all the rituals were full, including a smile and no teeth.
As soon as she raised her head, all the palace maids were surprised, this woman was so beautiful that even the queen lost her mind when she looked at her for a while, but she quickly covered her surprise with a smile, "Miss Jingwen Houfu is amazingly beautiful, and no one in the city knows about it. Today is really an eye-opener for the palace, there are three thousand beauties in the palace, and no one can compare to your appearance. Mrs. Jingwenhou, you have raised a good daughter!"
Mrs. Jingwenhou leaned over and saluted again, "Thank you, Niangniang, for your appreciation." “
The queen has the demeanor of the mother of a country, revealing nobility and majesty in her gestures, "Sit down!" Come on, serve tea. “
"Xiulan, you and I used to be best friends, why be restrained! What's more, today's son of Hongu and your daughter were born on the same day, which is really a coincidence. The queen smiled kindly, and began to talk with Mrs. Jingwenhou about interesting things in the capital, as well as about children.
The old lady was old, and only sat first in the lower right, and sometimes answered a few questions from the queen.
Mo Yan just kept a smile and demeanor, and sat quietly next to the old lady.
And Hao Xuan, who was just about to walk in outside the door, saw Mo Yan's side face, his footsteps stopped, and his eyes leaned behind the door with some complicated eyes, looking at the sky in the distance.
Once on the Cangshan Mountain, the first time we met, he was an orphan with no father and no mother, he didn't know how to get along with people, so he faced Mo Yan with a cold face. After that, he recalled the picture of the persecution of his father and mother, and he didn't know how to face her, face his master, and face all kinds of memories in the fairy world, so he fled at that time.
He pushed her away again with indifference, but from then on, he was not a cold and heartless person, she was like the only sun in his world, melting his heart.
So at the moment when she almost died, he resolutely jumped off the mirror platform with her, because he finally understood his heart, whether it was a fairy or a demon...... He must not lose her.
He is also very glad that he can fall in love with her again in the first life, and he will do everything to give her a warm home in this life.
As if he had figured everything out, Hao Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, hooked his lips and smiled, and walked directly into Fengluan Palace.
"I've seen His Royal Highness King Xuan!" I've seen His Royal Highness King Xuan!"
The palace maids knelt down in unison, including Mo Yan, who also bowed, after all, she is now the identity of Miss Houfu, even if she sees her senior brother, she still has to salute.
However, the old lady and the lady just stood up and greeted, after all, the grade of the lady of the first rank is the same as that of the prince, and there is no need to make a big salute, but the prince Xuan is the emperor's favorite son, and he is much more noble than the minister's wife.
Hao Xuan chuckled and nodded, "The old lady doesn't have to get up. Please be seated!"
When the queen mother saw her son coming, she stood up happily and stroked his hand, "Haoxuan, why did you come here today?"
"My son has come to visit the queen mother."
Mo Yan looked at his blue robe, and the pattern of the clothes on her body was really a pair, and she was happy in her heart, but she was trying to hold back her smile, after all, this Fengluan Palace was full of palace maids, and maybe there were people sent by the prince's clan to monitor it.
Everything in the harem is not a secret, so she has to be more careful with her every move, so that she can't be caught.
Mo Yan and Hao Xuan stood in the palace one after the other, and their clothes were particularly conspicuous, and even the queen and Mrs. Jingwen were aware of this.
"Haoxuan, you and Miss Mo Yan...... How can the clothes you wear be so similar?" Although the queen had doubts in her heart, she still asked her son first, what is going on?
"On that day, Erchen and Mo Yan met on the street, and they happened to buy the clothes of the Ayaji Pavilion. Erchen has a lot of fate with her, and has met several times, once near Ciru Mountain, a thief kidnapped the little girl. Erchen and Miss Mo Yan caught up with her, and under the shadow of the sword and sword, they happened to save her life. Haoxuan's words are half-truths and half-truths, just to convince the queen that the two have fate, not to mention that the two of them are celebrating their birthdays today, and even the date of birth is the same, what a coincidence, it should be the destiny of heaven.
The queen is a person who believes in the theory of gods and ghosts, she sees that Mo Yan and Hao Xuan are so compatible, talented and beautiful, standing together is like a golden boy and jade girl made in heaven, and she and Xiulan are friends in the boudoir, it would be better if they were in-laws.
The queen's eyes when she looked at Mo Yan became softer, as if she was looking at her daughter-in-law.
