Chapter 264: Palm Eye
The imperial capital, compared with Wucheng, is not only more majestic, more densely populated, but also far more prosperous than Wucheng.
The beautiful girl was amazed all the way, and she also noticed an interesting phenomenon along the way.
Probably because it is where the emperor is, the atmosphere in the capital has always been from courtiers to commoners, especially about national affairs, and they also like to talk about political affairs.
Especially now that the war has been won, the rebellion in Ganzhou has basically subsided. Because the New Year is approaching, and in order to appease people's hearts, the court consciously released some good news.
So, when Meiniang and her entourage entered the capital, they only listened to the streets and alleys, and had already compiled the story of His Royal Highness King Han's brave fight against the king of heaven into a commentary.
“…… Just listen to this urgency, that time is fast, His Royal Highness the King of Han pinched his fingers and counted, don't forget the rank, he is a senior disciple of Mr. Shangguan. Just a few means, naturally, it is not a problem. So he pretended to defeat Ganzhou and muddy the drainage, so that he could catch the king of Tongtian, the eighth ......"
The beautiful lady lifted the curtain, only listened to a short paragraph, and was amazed.
These storytellers are too good at making up.
According to what they said, what kind of battle is Min Bai still fighting, what kind of ravine is he drilling? When you pinch your fingers and count everything, you have a plan.
If you pinch your fingers again, you will have a strategy to break the enemy.
The king of Tongtian, Yu Zitong, was originally a giant man with a height of eight feet and a waist circumference, but in front of pinching his fingers, he was all abused into scum.
But the junior brother who pinched her fingers and counted it was still what she was looking for!
"Do you feel uneasy? Obviously, you have made those contributions, but you haven't mentioned a word. Shangguan Ling has been closing his eyes and recuperating, but he magically guessed the female disciple's mind.
Mei Niang chuckled, "It's better to be obscure than to let them be so blindly arranged." Hey, sir, it seems to have arrived. Where is it? ”
The carriage stopped, and Shangguan Ling was very emotional, "This is my old house in the capital in the past, and the emperor rewarded me." I didn't expect that over the years, I didn't reward others. ”
All the way in, the scenery in the house is the same.
Even the chief eunuch who led the way to serve introduced himself, saying, "In the past, slaves and maids also served here, but at that time it was a little eunuch who sprinkled tea and water, but I am afraid that Mr. will not remember." ”
Shangguan Ling looked at him a few times and said, "I remember you!" At that time, you were in charge of sweeping the gravel road in front of the study, it snowed in winter, and the crevices were frozen, and I was afraid that the ice shoveling would make me noisy, so you always got up half an hour earlier than others and took the firewood to bake the road carefully. But not? ”
The eunuch was very moved, "Sir, even remember?" It's really a little three lives lucky! ”
Shangguan Ling said with a smile, "I felt at the time that a person who works so hard will not be subservient forever. You deserve what you have today. ”
That's a heartwarming thing to say.
The big eunuch's eyes were red, and he served more and more wholeheartedly.
The beautiful girl watched silently and learned.
Mr. Shangguan never likes long lectures, but uses his own words and deeds to teach his disciples imperceptibly.
A person's moral upbringing is not only based on his knowledge, and when he treats the powerful, but also his attitude towards these subordinates.
So the beautiful lady turned around and went to her own courtyard, and she was also humble to the aunts and palace maids who were serving in the courtyard.
The little palace maid couldn't help but go to the aunt in charge and say good things.
"I didn't expect that although Miss Lin was from a low background, she didn't have half of her childish spirit. And he looks so good, and he is not arrogant. I see that the master in the palace is almost the same, and there are many of them. ”
Aunt Qin lowered her face and lectured, "The matter of the master's mother is also something that you and I can discuss at will?" Don't look at people's kindness, just perfunctory. Since the emperor has sent us to serve, we have to be attentive! ”
The little palace maid stuck out her tongue and went honestly.
Aunt Qin was also secretly pondering.
She is the old lady in the palace, and she is the same as Ruigu who went to the Han Palace. Naturally, I have more eyesight, and I can see that the beauty girl is not a thing in the pool.
Speaking of the time when Aunt Rui just went to the Han Palace, she also wrote a letter mentioning this Miss Lin.
I thought she was boastful back then, but I didn't expect to see each other now, and it was really a stunning.
I just don't know what it means that Li Dahai, the chief eunuch in front of the emperor, specially asked her to serve and asked her to palm her eyes more?
Although Emperor Yan Cheng is young, he is really not a lustful person.
And Meiniang is the younger sister of His Royal Highness the King of Han, and she is a generation behind the emperor in terms of generation, so the emperor naturally won't think about anything.
Is that to give a marriage to a beautiful girl?
But a people's daughter, even if she is the younger sister of His Royal Highness, is it too graceful?
Meiniang followed the Han Wangfu for thousands of miles to rescue Min Bai, and not many people knew about it.
Therefore, Aunt Qin couldn't guess the emperor's intentions, so she only paid more and more attention to the beautiful girl's every move.
The more I pay attention, the more I feel that the beauty is gentle and amiable, and not blindly weak. When asked about anything, she knew what to do, and she had a clear idea.
Such a girl, if she is not acting, would be really excellent.
After they settled down for a few days, they washed away the dust and nourished their spirits. Early in the morning, a little eunuch came to deliver an oracle, asking Mr. Shangguan to take a bath tomorrow and go to the palace to meet him.
It stands to reason that the beautiful girl should go to see Concubine Xu Xian. Strangely, she was not invited.
Aunt Qin wondered in her heart.
The beautiful lady is very calm, and she still practices her words unhurriedly.
She has not been in one place for several years, although she has been exchanging letters and guidance, but she still feels that she has left too much homework.
Concubine Xu Xian didn't see her, and she was still not happy to socialize.
I only heard that there is a rich collection of books in the Guozi Eunuch Academy, and I want to borrow a few books to take advantage of the previous year's holiday.
Aunt Qin thought about it, it was not a big deal, so she agreed.
So early the next morning, the Shangguan order was sent to the palace first, and the beautiful girl also went out.
Instead of borrowing books, let the carriage turn to another civilian alley.
Aunt Qin who came out with her is still strange, this is the first time Meiniang has come to the capital, are there any acquaintances?
waited until she entered the door of Xue's house before she suddenly realized.
There's another senior brother here! Indeed, you should come and see you.
Father Xue and Mother Xue, but I'm so excited!
They only knew that the war was almost over, how could they have thought that Meiniang had gone to Ganzhou, and now she was still in the capital to visit them?
I was busy killing chickens and buying meat to entertain her.
Ke Meiniang took Xue's mother's hand and smiled sincerely, "It's just that I'm afraid of bothering you, so I didn't send the post." My brother is just like my brother, and when he comes to his brother's house, I don't think of myself as an outsider. So just leave, don't blame me for being rude. ”
Xue Mu was reasonable, and she heard the sound of the beautiful girl.
She didn't plan to go further with Xue Shen, so she didn't want to be too cautious. Just walk around like a child of the whole family, and be casual.
Hurriedly asked the little girl to serve good refreshments, talked to the beautiful girl affectionately for a while, and let her go.
Turning back and unfolding the gift given by the beautiful lady, the four-color dim sum is freshly made in Shangguan's mansion now. The two high-grade wolf skin mattresses for her and Xue's father were brought back from Daizhou by Meiniang.
also deliberately brought a bag of wolfberries, because he knew that Xue Liang and his mother had done a ruthless embroidery job in her early years, hurt her eyes, and gave her a clear purpose of soaking water and drinking.
Even an old family member thinks about it, which shows the intimacy.
is the same as the gift given by Xue's mother last time, which is not deliberate, but also affordable and generous.
Mother Xue was very satisfied, so she wanted to take advantage of the official order to mention family affairs.
