Chapter 42: A Change from the Past

In the forbidden place of the palace, the eldest princess looked around to see if there were any suspicious people. After confirming that it was safe, he lowered his voice and said to Zhou Shuxuan: "Third child, such a big thing is not nonsense, we can take the prince down." But if something like that happens, I'm afraid it will cause ridicule from foreign countries, which is really embarrassing. ”

The stakes are big, and Zhou Shuxuan doesn't understand. But all kinds of signs show that the prince does have that idea, otherwise how to explain Sun Bo's matter.

He suddenly felt that he was playing too hard, he just wanted the prince to do some wrong things again, so that the emperor no longer felt that the prince was good anywhere, who would have thought that the prince would be so unsoothed.

"I'm just scared, Sun Bo probably went out to think that there might be something in the army, maybe I thought too much. But aunt, the prince's temperament in the past few years has not been fathomed, who knows if he will be bold. It's better to be prepared, otherwise it will be difficult to deal with it at that time. ”

"Huh!" The eldest princess chuckled, "I think that when the crown prince was first born, he was also a soft and glutinous little ball, but now it has become like this." It's really a child, and my aunt can't guess it. ”

Obviously sighed, Zhou Shuxuan still couldn't help but tear her down, "Auntie, you don't seem to be a few years older than the prince." ”

The emperor is the eldest son of the first emperor, and the eldest princess is the youngest daughter of the first emperor. When King Qi was born, the eldest princess was still a little girl. However, the eldest princess has few generals, and she was just in time when she entered the barracks. Because she has been living in a legend, few people have noticed her age.

The eldest princess reached out and knocked him, "I'm just as old as him, and he has to call me aunt, and so do you." ”

This time it took a lot of effort, Zhou Shuxuan covered his head and said: "I want to say that you are young, you want to be old-fashioned, and I can't help it." ”

The eldest princess glared at him and fell on Miaoli, "Little Shuang'er, don't go into the palace with him, the rules in the palace are very big, it's better to go to the eldest princess's mansion with me." ”

Miao Li subconsciously glanced at Zhou Shuxuan, not knowing how to respond to the eldest princess's invitation.

Miao Li spoke, "Slave maid ......"

"Alright," interrupted the eldest princess, "your hesitation will tell the whole story." You only have your prince in your heart without me, forget it, I won't be young people to compete for favor at my old age. After finishing speaking, he turned over and got on his horse and was about to leave, but his movements were neat and neat, and he didn't give Miaoli a chance to speak at all.

Zhou Shuxuan raised his head and instructed, "Auntie, don't forget what I said." ”

"I can't forget, the beef stuffed dumplings, I'll wrap a basket for you and send it over when the time comes."

This is said to hide people's eyes, and the two of them have been muttering at the gate of the palace for so long, so as not to be suspicious.

The eldest princess is gone, Miaoli still feels weird, and the eldest princess seems to have an inexplicable enthusiasm for her. But she is the master, she is just a slave, enthusiasm is enthusiasm, it is not something she can control.

All the way into the palace gate, the snow-covered imperial city seems to have a little more flavor, like a graceful woman covered with white veil, a little more hazy.

The Imperial City, where she thought there would never be an intersection before, is becoming more and more familiar.

Zhou Shuxuan still lives in Qingquan Palace, because of his arrival, Qingquan Palace has a bit more fireworks. However, there are mostly women in the palace, which makes Zhou Shuxuan a little uncomfortable, and he doesn't like those blazing eyes.

"Lord Wang, please use tea." A little girl handed over a cup of hot tea, and Zhou Shuxuan caught a glimpse of a crimson face when she took the tea.

He had the impression that the woman's face was not so red, it was lighter. No, how did he think of her again.

There are so many women in the world, but Zhou Shuxuan can only think of one Miaoli in his heart.

Zhou Shuxuan looked away, if it weren't for Wei Hai's inconvenience to enter the palace, he would definitely bring Wei Hai in.

Miaoli didn't go to the palace a few times and didn't have a good walk, Zhou Shuxuan was afraid that she would get lost again like last time, so he asked Mama Xi to take her out for a good look.

He is inseparable from others, so he can only stay with these little palace maids. Annoying, even reading a book is annoying.

Miao Li followed Mama Xi around the palace, and for the first time she had such a clear contact with the imperial city, she was a little excited, like a little girl, her eyes were moving around.

This time is different from before, it used to be a minion status, and today it is a bit of a tourist.

"This is a flowing light spring, and I don't know why it doesn't freeze in winter. It's obviously a pool of stagnant water, but it looks like living water. In the summer, when the sun is big, the sun shines on it, and the sparkling waves are beautiful. The nobles in the palace like to come here very much, and even the emperor will come over from time to time to see. ”

Mama Xi was afraid that she didn't know, so she explained it to her intimately.

Miao Li took a few looks, and it was indeed amazing. It's probably what's underground, so it doesn't freeze. Rare things are expensive, and it's fun to watch in winter.

But as soon as she looked up, a bright yellow color broke into her eyes, and Miao Li instantly felt that it was not fun. Will she be too unlucky, one of the few times she can meet the emperor in the palace.

After the emperor finished handling the government affairs, he felt that people were very lazy, so he came out for a walk, and just walked next to the streamer spring. Because it was the New Year's time, I didn't want to alarm the palace people, so I didn't let people clear the way.

The emperor came, Miaoli and Mama Xi hurriedly saluted, "Slave maid to the emperor to say goodbye." ”

"Get up." The emperor didn't take it to heart, there were too many palace maids in the palace, and it was not uncommon to meet one or two. Her eyes suddenly flickered, and the palace maid didn't seem to be wearing palace clothes. It looked a little familiar, and the emperor recalled it a little, and actually remembered Miaoli.

"Are you from the Qin Palace? King Qin entered the palace? ”

This sentence was naturally asking Miaoli, and Miaoli stepped forward and replied, "Long live the lord, the prince has just entered the palace." ”

The emperor nodded thoughtfully, walked forward, and asked, "How is it?" Is it still fun in the palace? "Kindness is like beckoning a friend's house to come and visit the child.

Miao Li said in a regular manner: "Go back to Long Live Lord, it's fun." ”

"If it's fun, I'll play for a few more days, I enjoyed playing chess with you last time, and I'm still thinking about when I'll let you play a few more games with me."

It's still enjoyable to lose an afternoon, Miao Li really doesn't know what the emperor thinks.

"Being able to play chess with the Lord of Long Live is a blessing for the slave maid to rest for three lives."

The emperor saw the pavilion next to him and said to his father-in-law, "You go and prepare things, I want to play chess with her here." ”

How can you say that wind is rain? Miaoli's identity is embarrassing, it is not suitable to go to any palace, it is best in the pavilion. But on a snowy day, she can't let the emperor accompany her to freeze outside.

Miao Li suddenly became anxious and said, "Long live Lord, why don't you go to Qingquan Palace." ”

When a sentence came out of his lips, everyone was stunned, and he couldn't easily mention three words in front of the emperor.

The emperor's face changed slightly, and his breath became solemn. The father-in-law who was following him knelt on the ground violently, Mama Xi also knelt down, and the minions behind him knelt on the ground. Miao Li realized that something was wrong and knelt straight on the ground, "The slave is guilty of death." ”

She just wanted to come to find a room that wasn't embarrassing, but she didn't expect this stubble, she should be damned.

The emperor stared at her for a long time without speaking, and his thoughts drifted back to a long time ago. At that time, he paid a private visit to Weifu and was trapped in Changning County because of a heavy snowfall. It was also such a heavy snow, because of the collision with the holy car, a little girl knelt on the ground and said, "The courtier's daughter is guilty of death." ”

That little girl is the future concubine, at that time she was obviously purer than snow, and she couldn't see the viciousness at all. If he hadn't had to bring Concubine Liang into the palace, it would probably have been a different result.

Now I often think back to the past, and I always feel that there are some things that don't have to be done too much. It's just that things have happened, and he can't admit that he did wrong.

"Get up." The emperor's slightly old voice remembered in the snow, as if it had come from nine days away.

Miao Li thought it was a holy decree to give death, and her heart was so pounding that she forgot to thank her. Mama Xi poked her lightly next to her before she reacted. "Slave and maid, thank the emperor for not killing."

"It's the New Year, don't say these words, so as not to collide with the gods of the past." The emperor acted as if nothing had happened just now, and said, "Drive Qingquan Palace." ”

This is even more shocking than pardoning Miaoli, since Qingquan Palace and Concubine Liang got involved, the emperor has never set foot on it again. In the past, when the Queen Mother was still there, the emperor went up to ask the Queen Mother for peace. It's really a god to go to Qingquan Palace today.

Everyone couldn't help but think about what kind of ability this maid from the Qin Palace's mansion had, and the emperor changed his previous habits again and again.

At such a distance, it is impossible for the emperor to walk over. Soon Long Yuan came over, and Xi Mama had already run back to inform the people of Qingquan Palace to prepare, and Miao Li followed Long Yuan.

The emperor seemed to be very tired, leaning crookedly on the armrest, closing his eyes as if he was napping. Miao Li secretly glanced at the emperor, and that feeling came out again, the emperor was really just a dry little old man.

After walking for about two quarters of an hour, I finally arrived at Qingquan Palace. Afraid that the emperor's body would not be able to bear it, the person carrying the sedan chair moved very slowly.

Zhou Shuxuan was already waiting at the door, and when Mama Xi came back to report, he was also surprised that the emperor actually agreed to come to Qingquan Palace. However, he was more curious about when she had played chess with the emperor.

The emperor came down from the dragon chariot, and Zhou Shuxuan bowed his hand, "The son of the emperor greets his father." ”

The emperor nodded slightly, indicating a response. Walking towards the palace, Qingquan Palace still maintains the layout of Concubine Liang's time. Simple and clean, unpretentious, at first glance it is the style of a good concubine.

It's like meeting an enemy in a foreign country that has been hated for many years, no matter what the feelings are, they are always old friends.

The people behind him were all holding their breath, and no one dared to say a word, for fear of offending Tianwei.

So it's best, the emperor spoke first and asked Zhou Shuxuan: "How is it?" Are you still used to living here? ”

Zhou Shuxuan thought it was really ridiculous, it was clear that the emperor had never been here, but he asked him this question like a master.

"Fortunately, Erchen has been used to it for so many years."

The emperor said meaningfully, "Over the years, I have indeed put you too far." ”

Zhou Shuxuan was shocked, what do you mean by this?
