Chapter 141: The Reception Feast
That sentence echoed repeatedly in his ears, Chu Yunsheng's heart was very messy, and Chu Yanli said again, "I heard that the eleventh princess seems to like you very much." ”
She was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "I know what to do!" ”
Qin Qi is very fond of Eleven, if Eleven doesn't like her, then Qin Qi will also hate the house and Wu!
Chu Yunsheng returned to her room, and her heart was unusually messy.
It stands to reason that she shouldn't have been disturbed by her brother's words, on the way back, she even thought that her brother might say something more ugly, her brother's words were already very gentle, she should feel relaxed, why didn't her mood feel relaxed, but became heavy?
She couldn't say why, probably because her brother choked her scars and said the string of words that reminded her!
But something feels wrong......
This night, Chu Yunsheng tossed and turned, and did not fall asleep until late at night. It's because I've been walking this afternoon, and I'm really tired, so I barely sleep.
The next day, Chu Yunsheng got up very early.
Mainly before going to bed, I told Cardamom that I was going to the prince's reception banquet tomorrow, and Cardamom called her up early in the morning.
Chu Yunsheng sat in front of the dresser, and inadvertently glanced at the sky outside, the sky was still gray, and she muttered, "I have to wait for the hundred officials to greet the prince at the gate of the city, and then the honor guard will go to the palace, and it will be noon at the earliest!" ”
She remembered that there were several times when the reception banquet did not start until the evening, and she was called up early in the morning to tease her.
Cardamom held a comb grate in his hand to help Chu Yunsheng comb the ink thread, "County Lord, that's what you said yesterday!" ”
Chu Yunsheng saw that the sky was not bright, and complained casually, listening to Cardamom say this, his face was a little unbearable, and he didn't say anything more.
A group of maids rushed in, and quickly groomed her, her hair was tied up with a peacock screen sideburns, a vermilion hairpin ring was inserted, and a bright purple wide-sleeved silver-patterned lily skirt was put on.
After getting these done, the sun had just poked its head out of the east, and Chu Yunsheng sat on the beauty couch and read a book for two and a half hours, and was reminded by cardamom that it was time to enter the palace.
The carriage was not allowed to enter the palace and stopped outside the palace.
Chu Yunsheng stepped out of the carriage and walked through the palace gate, her eyebrows moved, and she vaguely felt that the soldiers at the palace gate were a little different.
They were dressed in armor, with long knives at their waists, and their faces were serious, their eyes were attentive, and their expressions were indifferent. This is exactly the same as the last time she entered the palace, but when she saw these people today, she had a wonderful feeling, feeling that they seemed to be a little different from before, and as for what was different, I couldn't say.
After walking for a while, Chu Yunsheng whispered to Cardamom, "Have you noticed that these soldiers guarding the palace gate seem to be a little different." ”
Cardamom looked puzzled, "It's the same, did the county lord notice something?" ”
"It's nothing, maybe I'm too careful." Chu Yunsheng shook her head when she said nothing, although Cardamom said so, she still had doubts in her heart.
Seeing the county lord's appearance, Cardamom seemed to think of something, "The county lord was uneasy when he came back yesterday, did something happen yesterday afternoon?" ”
Chu Yunsheng was stunned? Is she acting so obviously? She shook her head and said, "It's nothing, I feel irritated inexplicably when I think about what happened recently." ”
Cardamom seemed to understand and asked, "Is the county lord for Prince Yi's business?" ”
When it came to Prince Yi, Chu Yunsheng had a flash of inspiration, the soldiers at the gate of the palace were still soldiers, still wearing armor, still wearing long knives at their waists, still solemn without the slightest expression, everywhere was the same, the only difference was the face.
- The guards of the palace have changed!
Coming to this result, Chu Yunsheng's eyes shrank, and there was still doubt on Cardamom's face, she nodded, lowered her voice and said, "This is the Imperial Palace, remember to be cautious in your words and deeds." ”
"Got it." Cardamom nodded.
Chu Yunsheng reminded him that from the gate of the palace to the imperial garden of the harem, Cardamom didn't say a word all the way, and he really understood the words "be cautious in words and deeds" into his bones.
Chu Yunsheng was a little bored in his heart, but he didn't take the initiative to provoke the topic.
This reception banquet is said to be a family banquet, and a number of imperial relatives were invited, and none of Zhu Zi's high-ranking officials were among the banquets, but what was surprising was that many nobles were invited this time.
The queen is probably thinking about helping the prince choose another princess, the prince chose the daughter of a poor seven-rank official, but the emperor was angry enough, the emperor was completely disappointed in this prince, and in the end the woman was named a side concubine. The queen is a thief, and wants to stuff the crown prince with a princess from a high-ranking family, so that the emperor can change his opinion of the prince.
As everyone knows, whether the emperor can sit firmly and hold a chair is a question!
Walking to the Taiye Pool, Chu Yunsheng saw many sect girls and nobles from Kyoto, they were talking and laughing together, Chu Yunsheng had no intention of talking to them, and walked alone to a place where there were not many people to rest.
When she came to the Imperial Garden, she habitually walked towards the Hanlian Pond.
In the golden autumn of September, the lotus flowers in the pond are almost gone, only a few stubborn struggles remain, the wind sweeps through the pond, the petals swing into the pond with the wind, the fragrance is gone, leaving the lotus canopy standing high.
The whole pool is only left with a single color of emerald green, which symbolizes the fresh face, but this moment is extraordinarily peaceful and serene.
Chu Yunsheng did not go to the pond on the edge of the pond to rest, but stood at the place of the mountain and looked at the lotus flowers in the pond. From Mayday to the present, she has witnessed the prosperity and decline of this Hanlian Pond, and she has a lot of emotion in her heart.
Cardamom didn't have Chu Yunsheng's state of mind, her eyes were always looking around, and when she saw Princess Minyang sitting in the pavilion over there, she pulled Chu Yunsheng's sleeve, "Princess Minyang is over there." ”
Chu Yunsheng was stunned, took a deep look at the vicissitudes of the pond, and then looked at which side Cardamom said. In the pavilion next to Hanlian Pond, there was a large group of maids and grandmothers, and through the crowd, Chu Yunsheng still clearly saw Princess Minyang sitting on the white jade squat.
Princess Minyang's bulging belly has disappeared, and she looks much thinner than before, and the grandmother next to her is holding a swaddling baby in her hand, thinking that it is the child born by the third princess.
Chu Yunsheng looked at it fixedly, and was about to pull Cardamom away, when he retracted his gaze, he accidentally caught a glimpse of a maid walking over here, and she recognized that this was the maid beside Princess Minyang.
She guessed in her heart, isn't it that what happened last time was not enough, and Princess Minyang still wanted to call her over?
When the maid came over, she explained her intentions, and sure enough, it was Princess Minyang who called her over.
Chu Yunsheng only felt funny, and rejected Princess Minyang's invitation, "The county lord has been unfavorable recently, so he won't bring the evil qi on his body to the little prince." ”
