Chapter 34: Born to be Charming
Xingchen went in as he was told, and bowed to the empress upright. "Courtier, see the Mother Empress."
The empress raised her eyebrows: "What are you looking for?" ”
Xingchen squinted at Koyanagi, who was half-leaning on the empress's lap, and coughed dryly. "Courtier...... There are some private matters that I want to talk to the mother emperor. ”
The Empress chuckled and looked at Koyanagi.
Koyanagi also covered his mouth and smiled, glanced at the empress and then at the tenth princess, and finally smiled and waved his hand. "The slave understands, the princess is in the way of the slave, but ......"
He changed his words: "But princess, your private matter...... If so...... Those aspects ......" His voice was naturally soft, so that he said so intermittently, and there was a taste of numbness and shyness, Xingchen sighed in his heart, just relying on his voice, this Xiaoliu is really the person she has seen in her life who is most worthy of the word "bewitching the lord".
When she saw him stop, she looked at him with some confusion and waited for him to continue.
However, Koyanagi covered his mouth and smiled coquettishly.
"Original...... Isn't that the ...... It's a slave...... After thinking about it...... "After speaking, he stood up with his waist up, Shi Shiran saluted the empress, and bowed slightly to Xingchen.
"Nanu...... He withdrew. ”
His posture, eyes and voice are the same, as if there is some kind of charm that cannot be explained, although it is not a face that is full of countries and cities, but it seems to have a natural eyebrow bone, and his gestures are all kinds of charm, even if they are inadvertent.
Xingchen swallowed silently and nodded politely at him.
The empress also acquiesced, and the Xiaoyanagi clan went out with a smile, closed the door with his hand, and ordered the little ones who were waiting outside to stay away.
After making sure he was far away, Xingchen came back to his senses and glanced at the empress who had been sitting in the hall and had not moved much.
She opened her mouth to say something, but hesitated.
The empress glanced at her and whispered, "On the side, sit casually." ”
Xingchen Yiyan found a wooden case that looked more comfortable and knelt aside.
"This little Yanagi clan is completely different from Liu's personality, right?" The empress spoke lightly, and what she said was indeed a homely sentence. Xingchen was stunned for a moment, and then carefully counted the few conversations he had with the mother emperor over the years, how many times he broke up unhappily, how many times he had to speak, and how many times he had his own needs, but there was really no time, it was such a homely beginning.
She thought hard about Liu's appearance, with a handsome face, a graceful posture, a white dress with water sleeves, a graceful and elegant dance, and between the flow of her eyes, she could come up with tricky tricks to tease people.
Then I thought about Xiao Yanagi again, if you pick up his appearance alone, he is at most ordinary and good-looking, but compared to Liu, he is far from being able to reach it, but his voice and posture are not hooked.
She made a difficult comparison, and then replied to the empress very honestly. "It's different, each has its own merits."
The Empress smiled and sighed, "You are honest, do you know how I would answer if I asked about those officials in the court?" ”
Xingchen shook his head.
"They will say that I am blessed with heaven, and this is why such an extraordinary person as the Liu brothers came to me."
Xingchen looked incredulous, and then secretly despised these doglegs in his heart. The empress seemed to see through her mind at a glance, and continued with some amusement: "Then she turned her head and secretly scolded me in her heart, being mediocre, spoiling men, violating ethics, and messing up Gangwei. ”
Those people are indeed the ones who can do these things. Xingchen chuckled lowly, then glanced at the Empress with some trepidation. The Empress's color did not change, and she continued to ask, "I want to know at this moment, in your heart, how do you see me. ”
How to look at her.
Xingchen turned over many memories of the Empress and her in his mind, then pursed his lips and replied very carefully: "I...... I don't have much contact with the mother emperor, and I don't dare to make a presumptuous evaluation. After speaking, he didn't dare to look at the empress's eyes, and continued stubbornly: "But the mother in my memory, she is elegant, gentle, thoughtful, intelligent but disdainful of harem schemes, and often likes to listen to accidents to me, I am very ...... Love her. ”
After speaking, she lowered her eyes, her heart was beating like thunder, these words were heartfelt, she never wanted to do things to deceive the mother, and then her mother's temperament became more and more unpredictable, and her reaction, she really couldn't expect it at all.
However, it doesn't matter, it's a big deal, scolding angrily and then throwing it back to the side courtyard will definitely not affect the overall situation. She still has this self-confidence. However, she waited left and right, but she couldn't wait for an ending, it felt like she was about to be beheaded, her neck was stretched out, but the knife couldn't be killed, or she asked the elders for sugar, her hand was sore, and half of the candy didn't fall.
"The Mother ......"
She called out tentatively, and then raised her eyes to peek at her, but as soon as her eyes fell, she saw the Empress's eyes smiling at her.
Well, this peek was caught.
She pretended to be calm, and naturally transformed peeking into looking up, and after looking at it for a while, a heart was put into her stomach peacefully. Her mother seems to be in a good mood today.
