In the twenty-eighth year of Zhenyuan, early spring.
The drizzle is falling, and there are few pedestrians walking on the lively streets on weekdays, and the huge Yunyang City is covered by misty water mist, which is quite cool.
Rui Wang's Mansion, Cuiyan Pavilion.
Under the corridor, the footsteps of the busy maids are extremely light today, as if they are afraid that they will disturb anyone if they are not careful.
Occasionally, a few inaudible sighs could be heard from the pavilion.
The maid waiting in front of the door couldn't help but shake her head, only hoping that God would bless Miss Yumo and make her recover soon.
"Hong'er, is the medicine cured?"
There was a hoarse and low inquiry from the room, and the maid waiting in front of the door was none other than Hong'er. By this time, she had quietly pushed the door in, holding a bowl of hot potion in her hand.
The owner who wanted to come to this house had been taking medicine for a long time, and when the door opened, there was a strong smell of medicine.
Next to the dark red exquisite carved lacquer bed, a handsome man in a plain white brocade dress with a sad face is the owner of this Rui Wangfu, Xuanyuan Qing.
Xuanyuan Qing's thick eyebrows were frowning at the moment, and his deep eyes were staring at the woman on the bed.
Looking at the woman, her hair is like ink and leaning on the side of the couch, her eyebrows are far away, and her skin is like condensation, she should have a shocking face. But at this moment, his eyes were closed, his face was pale, and his breath was weak.
"Hong'er, has the Imperial Doctor come to see Miss today?"
Hong'er frowned slightly and pursed her lips, looked down at the ground and replied softly: "If you go back to Your Highness, the Imperial Doctor has already come to probe the pulse of the young lady, and he still only said that it is okay." Or Miss her...... She ......"
Hong'er bit the corner of her lip lightly, a little hesitant, not knowing whether she should relay the words of the imperial doctor to His Royal Highness. After all, His Royal Highness is infatuated with Miss, but Miss She ......
After Xuanyuan heard what she said, his already dim eyes became more and more gloomy, and his eyes were full of pity and reluctance when he looked at the person on the couch.
"What did the doctor say? Hong'er! Xuanyuan Qing had already guessed seven points in his heart at this moment, but he still didn't want to believe it, and still asked Hong'er in a dumb voice.
Hong'er glanced up at King Rui tremblingly, and quickly lowered her head and replied: "Back to Your Highness, the imperial doctor said that Miss She or she didn't want to wake up, so no matter how much medicine she took, she didn't get better." ”
She doesn't want to wake up and face everything, preferring to fall asleep every day.
didn't know that in addition to that person in this world, he secretly guarded her.
Chapter 1: A kiss to love
In the winter of the tenth year of Zhenyuan, the world was peaceful, and the people had plenty of food and clothing.
Jiang Chengze, the prime minister of the Southern Chu State, was happy to have a daughter, and held a banquet in the mansion for three days, inviting the powerful people of the DPRK and China to congratulate him.
Originally, it was not a great joy for the prime minister to have a daughter, but Jiang Chengze had no children under his knees, and he was over forty years old to have a daughter, so he was naturally overjoyed, and he couldn't wait to tell the world that he would eventually become a father.
Jiang Chengze named the woman "Yumo", and he loves her very much, although she is from the side room, but all the uses are superior. A year later, his Mrs. Ping gave birth to her daughter-in-law, Yuxi and her mother-in-law, Mrs. Xue's daily needs are still as usual, and Jiang Chengze's love for her has not decreased but increased.
In this way, except for Mrs. Ping, who has been unpleasant to see Yumo since she came, Yumo is treated very well in the house.
Yumo has been smart since she was a child, and her stunning appearance, coupled with her mother's mother, Mrs. Xue, has always been favored by the prime minister, and as time goes by, it is inevitable that she will be a little squeamish.
Sister Yuxi has a very different personality from her, when she was twelve years old, she had already made a first-class female celebrity, and she was not a problem playing the piano and painting, but she was the leader of many government daughters in Yunyang City.
Although Yumo is one year old, if she is allowed to embroider and write, it will simply cost her life. On weekdays, she always secretly begged the guards in the house to teach her kung fu behind her father's back, and those guards didn't dare to hide such things from the prime minister. But she couldn't stand the pleading of this pink and delicate daughter, so she had to occasionally teach her some simple fist and foot kung fu in private.
In this way, before she reached the end of the year, she was already one of the few famous little witches in Yunyang City.
On the fifteenth day of the first month, Jiang Chengze received the emperor's holy decree and led the family to Changle Palace for a banquet and spent the Shangyuan Festival together.
Yumo is naughty, Jiang Chengze naturally knows, but he has always just turned a blind eye in the mansion. But now that she has entered the palace for a banquet, the holy car is not ordinary, and she must be explained to her, so she is in the same sedan chair with her.
Jiang Chengze smiled at the corner of his mouth, lovingly stroked Yumo's thin shoulder, and said: "Mo'er, when you enter the palace and see those imperial ministers in a while, you must bow obediently, and you must not be naughty, you know?" ”
Jiang Yumo wore a thick pink short jacket and leaned against her father's arms, her jet-black hair was combed into two round buns, and two small bows were tied on the bun with pale pink ribbons, matching her delicate and beautiful face, coupled with those dark and smart eyes, it became more delicate and pink.
At this time, after hearing Daddy's explanation, he hurriedly sat up straight, nodded and replied, "Daddy, don't worry, Mo'er is well-behaved." I won't disgrace my father. ”
Seeing her so well-behaved, Jiang Chengze finally smiled and put his mind at ease.
At the banquet, Yumo had been sitting beside his mother, quietly listening to the adults talking and laughing.
It wasn't until the queen suddenly mentioned her and Yuxi's names that she suddenly stood up and nodded to everyone with a slight smile. Holding hands with Yuxi, he slowly walked to the main hall and bowed to the emperor and queen on the throne.
The queen is dressed in a bright yellow palace dress, holding a soft veil of Luocui, and a golden phoenix hairpin is obliquely inserted in her wind bun and mist temples, which looks particularly luxurious, but also elegant.
At this moment, the queen smiled at the corner of her eyes, and asked softly, "Who of you is Yumo?" Who is Yuxi? ”
When the two heard this, they each replied, their tones were immature, but their words and deeds were measured.
Even the emperor, who was originally drinking with a toast, put down the wine cup, looked at the two sisters with a smile on his face, and nodded frequently to the queen.
"Haha! The queen has a good eye! Sure enough, it's a rare beauty! ”
Yumo stood with his head bowed, listening to the emperor's laughter and praise, and couldn't help but secretly rejoice in his heart. Occasionally, I heard my father mention in the palace that the current emperor is the king of the ancient sage, and under his governance, the Southern Chu State can become rich and strong, and become one of the four strong Kyushu.
Now that she heard the Holy Monarch praise their sisters in public, she felt that she had earned face for the Prime Minister's Mansion, and her father would have to reward her after returning home. Thinking like this, the faint tension in my heart couldn't help but fade a little.
At this time, the queen's low voice came from above: "Since Your Majesty is also satisfied, then today the palace will ask the prime minister for Lang'er for this family matter!" ”
Courtship? Ti Lang'er? Xuanyuan Lang? Jiang Yumo's heart jumped to his throat again, the rumored arrogant and domineering prince?
Daddy, don't agree, Mo'er doesn't want to marry him.
Jiang Yumo prayed in his heart, secretly raised his eyes and glanced at his father at the banquet, he was getting up to salute the queen, and then turned to look at his sister Yuxi beside him, at this time he actually had a smile in his eyes, and seemed to be very happy. Could it be that the queen is talking about marrying Yuxi to the prince? Did she hear it? So it is good, very good. Yuxi is so gentle and virtuous, and delicate and cute, looking at the entire Southern Chu Kingdom, only a person with status like the prince is worthy of her.
At this time, I heard my father reply to the queen, "Weichen is frightened, the dog girl is still young, and it is really a blessing for three lives to be loved by His Majesty." It's just that I don't know if what Niangniang is talking about is Yumo or Yuxi? ”
The queen looked at Jiang Chengze and smiled meaningfully, "Prime Minister don't worry, this palace sees that the two daughters under your knees have the appearance of a captivating city, and they are so knowledgeable and reasonable, they are very good at the heart of this palace." According to what the palace thinks, he will be the master of the prince and set up a family affair with the two of her, how about it? ”
When Jiang Yumo heard this, she panicked, her small body shook slightly, and she almost fell, but fortunately, Yuxi quickly helped her to prevent her from losing her honor in front of the palace.
What kind of heart did the queen have to let her two sisters serve a husband?
Although there are countless men and children with three wives and four concubines in the world, she has been accustomed to seeing the love of her mother and father since she was a child, but she has been repeatedly harassed by Mrs. Ping, and her life is not stable.
Although she is young, she has slowly developed a mind because of this, and she only hopes to be a couple for the rest of her life, and she does not have to compete with others for favor and love.
But now he can only pin his hopes on his father, he loves himself so much, he will not be willing to promise her and his sister to the prince.
Jiang Yumo forced himself to calm down, and secretly raised his eyes to look at his father's slightly trembling figure
"Thanks to the queen's love, Weichen will thank the dog girl for her great kindness!"
"So good! Come on, help the prime minister to enter the table and pour wine for the prime minister! ”
Yuxi knelt down suddenly at this time, and the immature child's voice sounded: "Xi'er thank the emperor and queen for her love!" ”
The queen was glad to see her so decent.
I only heard the emperor's hearty laughter coming from the top of the main hall, and for a while, all the ministers during the banquet raised their glasses to congratulate the emperor and the prime minister.
Only Jiang Yumo was silent, and returned to the banquet with Yuxi and sat down.
At this time, several young men sitting next to the queen all stared at the pair of sisters in the Prime Minister's Mansion with different expressions.
The young man in the pale yellow gold-trimmed court dress was slightly older, and he glanced at Jiang Yumo with a gloomy face, but when he looked at Yuxi beside her, he changed his face again, and the corners of his mouth were clearly smiling.
The young man sitting next to him was handsome and extraordinary, dressed in plain silver silk court clothes, his slender phoenix eyes were as clear as water, without a trace of mortal air, and a faint pity flashed in his eyes when he looked at Yumo.
