Chapter 116: Meeting
Rong Lan came, Li Jingyi exchanged glances with Zhou Yan, and they both went to see Queen Yun, but how could Queen Yun explain her intentions to them, and said to Li Jingyi, "I heard that the plum blossoms in the imperial garden are blooming well, Jing Niang will go to the garden with Mrs. Zhou."
After Rong Lan came in and kowtowed to Queen Yun, she found that there was no Li Jingyi in Kunde Palace, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, Rong Lan was not afraid of Li Jingyi, but she didn't want to meet her before winning the favor of Queen Yun now, if she saw that something happened to her mind faint, wouldn't she smash the opportunity she had worked so hard to get?
Queen Yun quietly looked at Rong Lan, who was dressed in a water red treasure pattern engraved silk gown, I have to say that Rong Lan was very beautiful, especially the vitality and confidence in the peach blossom eyes like a pair of cold stars, even when she saw herself, she still looked calm, not humble or arrogant, which made Queen Yun, who had seen a lot of ladies from various provinces, secretly praise, and at the same time felt regretful, if she didn't know what she did, wouldn't such a woman be an excellent candidate for a brother-in-law?
"It is said that the Rong family has a daughter with a peerless appearance, and when I saw it today, it really deserved its reputation," Queen Yun smiled faintly, "Rong Lan, do you know why this palace summoned you?" ”
Rong Lan really can't guess Queen Yun's intentions, if it's because of Yun Chi, then she should enter the palace after Yun Chi "comes back", if it's because of the name she has "broken through" these days, then this Queen Yun is inevitably a little too calm, "Niangniang has won the award, the posture of the courtier Pu Liu, she deserves to be praised by Niangniang, as for why Niangniang summoned the concubine,"
Rong Lan boldly raised her eyes and looked at Queen Yun for a moment before lowering her head, "The courtiers don't dare to speculate about the phoenix at will." ”
"This palace wants to thank you for saving Ying Chu's life, but the fact that he was assassinated can't be known to outsiders, so this palace can't thank you clearly, do you understand?" Queen Yun smiled faintly, "But if you have any wishes, you can tell this palace, and this palace will do its best to fulfill it." ”
"Niangniang," Rong Lan got up from the peony chair, walked to the front of the steps of Queen Yun, knelt down uprightly, and touched the ground with her head three times before saying, "The courtier has a wish, I hope that Niangniang can fulfill it!" ”
In the imperial garden, Zhou Yan tightened the limelight on her body, and whispered in Li Jingyi's ear, "What kind of medicine do you say Niangniang sells in this gourd?" ”
The plum forest in this imperial garden is really much inferior to the Thousand Tree Garden in the Enyi Mansion, and now it has fallen a snow, and I don't know if the cold plums there are all blooming, Li Jingyi stretched out her hand and stroked the strong branches of an old plum tree in front of her, "This plum tree is also old, right?" ”
Zhou Yan was not interested in flowers and grass, and when she saw that Li Jingyi didn't answer her, she glanced at her, "How do I know?" You just call the little eunuch to ask, you haven't answered me yet, tell me quickly, do you know what Niangniang means? ”
Li Jingyi shook her head, "I don't understand, if you really don't want me to meet Rong Lan, you can stagger the day when you are summoned, but now?" ”
Li Jingyi was a little confused about what Queen Baiyun was planning, so she heard Zhou Yan snort and said, "What's so hard to guess, Niangniang is just reminding Rong Lan what she has done with the Rong family, as for summoning Rong Lan, she must have heard that this girl is jumping up and down too actively these days, and she wants to call in to see for herself." ”
"You are right, didn't you figure it out and ask me?" Li Jingyi felt that what Zhou Yan said still had some truth, no matter what idea Queen Yun had, as long as she was there, Rong Lan would not be able to run away without virtue.
"Oh, what are you thinking, that's not what I'm asking," Zhou Yan was about to be angry with Li Jingyi, and couldn't help but reach out and twist it on her face, "I'm thinking about what Niangniang just told me, what kind of family background and good morality, what are you going to do?" The emperor is choosing a concubine, and it's not,"
Zhou Yan glanced around, didn't say anything, and listened to Li Jingyi, "Didn't figure it out?" Have you forgotten that there is also a Marquis of Enyi? ”
"Ah," this is a coercion, Zhou Yan suddenly understood, and said with a smile, "I actually forgot about this stubble," she lowered her voice, "According to me, this family in the back is better than the road ahead!" ”
It is true that Emperor Longwu is his uncle, but Li Jingyi also thinks that Mrs. Enyi is much stronger than any concubine and nobleman in the palace, she took Zhou Yan's arm and walked forward, "Niangniang's words are subtle, and I don't want to attract discussions, you know this matter in your heart, and you can't reveal the news." ”
"Don't worry," if people know that the queen chooses her brother and daughter-in-law in the name of choosing a small choice for the emperor, and her husband and wife have no good fruit to eat, "I have a number in my heart, since these words are said in front of you, I will definitely not treat you as an outsider, we don't care about the six, I will pick up the ones with excellent looks and good birth and send them up, and you have to help take a look at this matter later, this one person is short, and two people are long,"
Zhou Yan said and spoke, then bent over with a smile, and Li Jingyi on the side was stunned by her laughter, "What's the matter?" What is wrong with you? ”
"No, it's not, how ridiculous you think about it," Zhou Yan winked at Li Jingyi, "That Enyi Hou is a few years older than you and me, when he returned to Beijing, he was the spring boudoir dream of many boudoir women,"
Zhou Yan's voice was lowered, and she said in Li Jingyi's ear, "When I saw him back then, I cried when I went back, why did my angry father decide to marry me early?!" ”
"Yanniang, are you crazy?" Even if there were no outsiders in the imperial garden except for the brilliant plum blossoms of a tree, Li Jingyi was also frightened by Zhou Yan's boldness, "Don't say it!" ”
"My voice is so small, who can hear me? After you heard me, I was laughing, I didn't expect that there would be a day when I helped Yun Ying choose a daughter-in-law! Really, haha, what's the matter, Jing Niang, tell me, if I play a bad trick and get a woman like Rong Lan to give him, giggles, what kind of expression will Yun Yingchu have? ”
It's just a little girl's thought back then, Zhou Yan has long let it go, and she doesn't feel that there is anything she can't share with Li Jingyi.
"You, really, if you really pick a poisonous woman for Yunhou, be careful that people will settle accounts with you as a matchmaker in the future, let me tell you, Enyihou looks inconspicuous, in fact, he is not a good person, Niangniang handed over this matter to you, she trusts you, trusts you Peiguo Mansion, don't ruin the reputation of the Zhou family!"
Li Jingyi also heard it, this Zhou Yan is playing this matter as a joke, she glanced at Zhou Yan, "Let's go, let's ask someone to find a warm place to sit for a while, in this cold winter, there is really no scenery to enjoy except plum blossoms!" ”
When Li Jingyi returned to Kunde Palace with Qingliu, she saw Rong Lan standing at the gate of the palace, she didn't even give her a look, and went straight to the palace.
"Frozen, right? Aoyagi went to look for you, why did you say it for so long? Queen Yun watched the little palace maid take the hair canopy from Li Jingyi and Zhou Yan, and said a little apologetically.
"The mother was too worried, the concubine and the county lord were watched by the plum blossoms in the imperial garden, and later asked the little father-in-law to send a tea set, so I simply cooked flowers and enjoyed the plums!" Zhou Yan came over with a smile to greet Queen Yun, and sat down under her, "Jing Niang went to Zhuzhou, the concubine has not tasted the tea cooked by Jing Niang for several years, although the concubine drinks tea and appreciates paintings and poems, I can't say why, but I still want the tea fragrance cooked by Jing Niang!" ”
"Look at your mouth, it's three feet of ice outside, I'm afraid I can't freeze it," Queen Yun saw that Li Jingyi and Zhou Yan's faces were really good, so she put her mind at ease, she pointed to Rong Lan who was standing at the bottom of the stairs and said, "Miss Rong family, Ruihe County Lord is here, if you have anything to say, just tell her, with this palace, she will definitely not be embarrassed by you." ”
What is this? Rong Lan was almost stunned by Queen Yun's shamelessness, she begged Queen Yun, but what did she ask for? I hope that Queen Yun will come forward to resolve the embarrassment between the Rong family and the eldest princess of Jinyang, and I hope that Queen Yun will come forward and ask the eldest princess of Jinyang to see herself, Rong Lan believes that as long as she sees the eldest princess of Jinyang, with her love for her for many years and her own eloquence, she will be able to coax the eldest princess of Jinyang back.
Of course, Rong Lan has another intention in doing this, which is to completely dissociate herself from the Rong family in front of Queen Yun, so that she knows that no matter what the Hu family does with Rong Zhi, it has nothing to do with her Rong Lan, she has always disdained the behavior of her mother and brother, and is willing to atone for their crimes!
But now, Queen Yun did not ask herself to see the eldest princess of Jinyang, but asked herself to make amends to Li Jingyi, if this Li Jingyi is a good coax, she and Rong Zhi will not get into trouble with each other.
The queen spoke, Rong Lan was reluctant, and had to follow her will, "Rong Lan has seen the county lord Ruihe, and she has seen Mrs. Xiuwuhou,"
Zhou Yan had seen Rong Lan, but this time, she still observed Rong Lan seriously, she was also rare to see such a femme fatale, right?
"Miss Rong hasn't seen her for many years, but she is getting more and more out of luck, these days I have seen many ladies with the old lady, but I have never seen such a handsome as Miss Rong! Uh, by the way, although the Governor of Rong is far away in Zhuzhou, he is also a second-class member of the imperial court, I wonder if the government has reported your name to the Ministry of Rites? ”
Saying this in front of the queen, you are digging a pit for me, Rong Lan clenched her fists angrily, if she had the opportunity, she would have to put a sack on Zhou Yan! "Madame said that she laughed, how can Rong Lan be virtuous, she deserves to be praised by Madame."
"Tsk, your ears are fresh, and at first glance they are not the craftsmanship of those craftsmen in the silver building in the capital," Zhou Yan leaned forward violently, "Miss Rong, what's going on on your face?" It seems to be a scar, oops, this beautiful jade is slightly flawed, which makes people suffocate! ”
As soon as Zhou Yan said this, Queen Yun realized why Rong Lan wore such a pair of ears, it turned out that the ingenuity was here, "Mrs. Zhou is really younger than the palace, and her eyesight is good, if you don't say it, the palace won't notice this,"
Queen Yun sighed, as if she was a little regretful, "It's a pity, have you ever asked a doctor to show it?" Come on, go and ask the doctor to come over. ”
