Chapter 005: Entering the Palace

The majestic city walls, the glazed tile roofs, and the walls carved with complex patterns, every Great Zhou person can't help but respect when they see these.

As soon as the carriage reached the gate of the palace, there were already chamberlains.

Seeing this, Lu Chengan felt gloomy again.

Your Majesty still remembers that she will come to thank you today, is it possible that the Hou Mansion is even busier than Your Majesty?

"The rules of the palace have been told to you before, Your Majesty and the Queen Mother are very kind, rest assured." Lu Chengan saw the waiter walking briskly towards him, and hurriedly whispered.

Qin Ranran turned her head slightly: "Don't worry, I remember everything." As he said this, his heart was also spinning rapidly, recalling those rules.

Since he has lived again, he must be opposed to the Pingxi Hou Mansion, and the attitude of the emperor and queen has become extremely important at this time.

Cheng'an is now only a third-grade general, His Majesty can promise his request to give marriage in person, and when he entered the palace to thank him, he still remembered the hour, and waited at the gate of the palace with a line of attendants.

Her mind was spinning rapidly, and she always felt that the emperor was really kind to Lu Cheng'an.

"This is Gonggong Liu by His Majesty's side." Lu Chengan explained in a low voice.

Qin Ranran was stunned as if she had been beaten by a wave.

His Majesty's chamberlain......

It stands to reason that Lu Chengan is treated so favorably by His Majesty, so he must also have a certain amount of dependence.

The new monarch ascended the throne, even if he was suspicious, he would not behead the general's mansion.

What happened here?

Gonggong Liu had already greeted him with a smile, but his shrill voice did not make people feel uncomfortable: "General Lu, you can count it, Your Majesty has been waiting for you and the general's wife for a long time." ”

Lu Chengan bowed slightly towards Gonggong Liu: "Your Majesty Lao is worried, and Gonggong Lao is waiting for us here." ”

Gonggong Liu hurriedly turned sideways to avoid: "Don't dare to be a general, it's really tormenting the old slave." ”

Lu Chengan showed a faint smile: "What's this, you are the first person next to Your Majesty, and I should treat you with courtesy." ”

Gonggong Liu had a smile on his face, stretched out his hand and pointed to a soft sedan chair parked at the gate of the palace, and said to Qin Ranran: "Your Majesty said, this place is a little far away from the Changchun Palace of the queen's mother, and I am afraid that the general's wife will be tired, so I specially arranged a soft sedan chair." ”

Qin Ranran immediately saluted Gonggong Liu: "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

Stepping through the vermilion gate and walking on the wide and clean bluestone slab ground, Qin Ranran didn't dare to think more about the things in her memory, she listened nervously to the conversation between Gonggong Liu and Lu Chengan, and pressed all the doubts in her heart.

Lu Chengan also seemed to deliberately want Qin Ranran to know more, and greeted Gonggong Liu all the way, asking about the situation of His Majesty and the Empress.

Qin Ranran breathed a sigh of relief on the soft sedan chair, knowing this, if she paid more attention to herself, she wouldn't make any big mistakes.

"General Lu, the front is here, please get off the sedan chair with your wife." Turning a corner, Gonggong Liu suddenly stopped.

Qin Ran got off the sedan chair as she said, but there was something strange in her heart.

Lu Chengan is a foreign minister after all, but the emperor wants to see him in the Changchun Palace of the queen's mother.

Like, it doesn't match the etiquette......

Just thinking about it, several people had arrived at the gate of Changchun Palace.

Liu Gonggong signaled the two to wait for a while, and then flicked the dust into the house to report.

In an instant, he appeared again with a smile on his face: "General Lu, please two of you, Your Majesty is happy to know that the two of you are here." ”

Lu Chengan thanked him in a low voice, gave Qin Ranran a comforting look, and the two entered the main hall.

The main hall is not as luxurious as ordinary people imagined, there is simply no decoration on the pillars painted with vermilion, the sandalwood tables and chairs of the water color have been used half-old, and there is no smell of incense in the room, but there is a sweet melon and fruit smell, which is also mixed with the fragrance of elegant flowers.

"Lu Qing, I've been waiting for you for a while." Hearty laughter came from the front of the main hall.

Lu Chengan lowered his head and gave Qin Ranran a look, motioned for her to follow him a few steps forward, and knelt on the ground: "Is it the minister, let Your Majesty wait for a long time." ”

He immediately leaned over again: "Minister Lu Cheng'an, thank Your Majesty for the marriage." Qin Ranran also followed suit, her hands folded in front of her, and her forehead lightly touched the back of her hand.

Emperor Deqing saw that Qin Ranran's rules and etiquette were very standard and generous, and he nodded secretly in his heart.

The palace maid next to her appeared beside Qin Ranran with a tray, and Qin Ranran took the tea cup inside with both hands steadily, and raised it above her head: "Please drink tea for Your Majesty." ”

Emperor Deqing laughed, waved his hand and let Gonggong Liu take a sip of the teacup: "Reward." ”

Gonggong Liu immediately took the tray in the hand of the waiter, and there was a red seal on it.

Qin Ranran respectfully took it and leaned over: "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

Then he held up another tea cup: "Please drink tea from the queen." ”

The queen also took a sip, and her voice was warm: "Reward." ”

The palace maid next to her also handed over the tray, and there was a pair of Nanzhu head noodles on it, all of which were round, and they were all about the same size.

After Qin Ranran accepted it again, Emperor Deqing beckoned: "Lu Qing, get up quickly, give me a seat." ”

Lu Chengan was also unceremonious, and took Qin Ranran to sit down next to the emperor's hand,

"This is the girl of the Qin family who you have to marry you?" The emperor glanced at Qin Ranran with interest, and saw her sitting on the chair with a dignified posture, generous, and his heart became more satisfied, and he turned his head to the queen and said, "Ah Sheng, what do you think?" ”

The queen covered her mouth and smiled: "The concubine has a very good eye for General Lu, and this general's wife is a steady one." ”

Qin Ranran got up and thanked her, but she heard the queen speak: "I heard General Lu say that Madame has good medical skills, and this palace has been a little weak recently, I don't know if Madame is willing to show me a look." ”

Qin Ranran raised her head in surprise, and saw that Emperor Deqing was in his fifties, just like in his previous life, his hair was already a little gray, and his face was slightly haggard.

The queen is the first time she has seen Qin Ranran since the second generation, and she is also forty or fifty years old, but she looks like she is in her thirties when she is properly maintained, her face is fair, but there are faint wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, and there are some dark blue in her eye sockets, which looks like she is not sleeping well.

She retracted her casual gaze, got up and gave a salute: "As long as the mother doesn't dislike the concubine's shallow skills." ”

When the queen saw her responding, she also took the hand of the palace maid beside her, and got up to confess: "The concubine and the general's wife went to the inner room together, and they lost their company first." ”

Emperor Deqing looked nervous, and hurriedly ordered the people around him to take good care: "Go quickly, go quickly." ”

The inner room is also simple and simple, and after the queen asked Qin Ranran to sit down on the embroidery pier, she went straight to the point concisely: "The imperial doctor said that the palace has been pregnant for more than a month, but because the palace is a little old, this baby may not be able to be saved, and the palace wants you to help see if there is any way to help the palace keep this baby." ”
