Chapter 126: Furong Pavilion (1)
Shaohua should be glad that no one was passing by, looking at the figure hesitating at the intersection, she immediately shouted: "Qi Niang, where are you going?" ā
Jinhua was so frightened that her whole body stiffened, and Shaohua hurriedly walked up quickly, blocking her way.
"IāI didn't, I just walked around." Jinhua didn't expect to be discovered by Shaohua so soon, so he had to look left and right.
Shaohua didn't expose her lies, just stared at her flickering eyes, and said in a deep voice: "It's no better here than outside the palace, you will bump into nobles everywhere, go back with me." Later, the imperial concubine will summon us, and the third sister is already waiting for us. ā
She didn't want to make things difficult for Jinhua, but she didn't want her to cause trouble, it was not what she wanted to enter the palace, if she pulled out the unnecessary limelight. Shaohua didn't forget Song Yun's eyes just now, as if she was waiting for her to show her tail, and at this moment, she couldn't wait for the imperial concubine to suddenly make a decree, so that they could go back early.
Jinhua turned sideways to avoid Shaohua's hand, and said, "I'll go back later, I'll take a look at the scenery first." ā
Shaohua's footsteps paused, raised his head, and Jinhua was only one step away, his eyes were facing each other, and Jinhua's eyes were only nervous and flustered. Shaohua sneered, "Don't you think you're saying the opposite?" The lotus pond is not here, what do you have to see. ā
Jinhua's eyes kept looking to the right, and the steps under his feet also changed direction. "I, I don't have to look at the lotus ......" Suddenly, an arm was crossed in front of her, and Jinhua looked at Shaohua unhappily.
Shaohua no longer gave in politely this time, and his voice became more and more majestic: "Qi Niang, you have to remember your identity, don't do anything that embarrass your father and embarrass your grandfather, otherwise you won't know if you're dragging it down." ā
The two chamberlains walked in from the archway, Jin Hua showed a disappointed look on her face, and when she saw that her plan was disrupted by Shaohua, she was also angry. "What did the fifth sister say, did I do something wrong? I have behaved well, I have never done anything to embarrass my father or embarrass my grandfather, and I haven't even stepped out of the door a few times, who has dragged you down. On the contrary, it was the fifth sister, but she brought all the rules of the countryside to the house, do you think you don't know if you don't say it? ā
Sure enough, my aunt was right, if she wanted to climb up, she not only had to tear Shaohua off, but also knew how to fight for it. She thought that as long as she worked hard, she would fight for it, but Shaohua was here, and she would always be suppressed. Jinhua looked at Shaohua's eyes extremely unkindly, as long as Shaohua lost face in Beijing, the Li family would send her back to Pu'an, and she was also favored by everyone in Pu'an. But Jinhua is different, if Shaohua is not there, Wanhua will go out, and she will be the only one left, whether it is a concubine or not, the Li family will not lose her. When the time comes, Li Xunzhuo's love for their mother and daughter will begin, and her good life will begin.
Jin Hua was carefully making a small calculation in his heart, but Shaohua sneered again and again.
Listening to Jinhua's tone, he knew her whereabouts well, how could a person who hadn't even stepped out of the door a few times know that she had done something unruly.
"On the second brother's big day, the family was full of friends, but you played "Guanghan Yin" in Biwuxuan for a day, do you want to say that you didn't mean it, you were just practicing?" Shaohua didn't fall into her trap, and asked her about another thing.
"Guanghan Yin" is a palace grievance song that circulated among the people in the last years of the previous dynasty, ostensibly to write about Chang'e's lonely and cold life in the Guidian of the Toad Palace, as well as the meaning of nostalgia for her hometown, missing her husband, and recalling the past. In fact, the musician imitates Chang'e, expressing that he is alone in the empty boudoir, and longs for a lover to take her away. The song is very sad and poignant, once spread to the founding of the country, some people made up a few words, sang on the river bank, passers-by heard it and knew that there was a lady to be married here, it was desirable.
Queen Duanming also loves this song very much, and some people also say that Queen Duanming sang this song at the beginning, and she was pleased with the saints, so she sent someone to hire her into the door.
Regardless of the history of Xiaodaoye, it is true that Empress Duanming likes this song. It's just that after Queen Duanming passed, this song did not sound in the palace again, only in the far south, and occasionally someone sang it. Others may not be familiar with "Guanghan Yin", but Hongwen has listened to it since he was a child, and since Queen Duanming passed over, he still heard it for the first time, and he was stupid all of a sudden.
Not to mention what "Guanghan Yin" has to do with Queen Duanming, on my brother's big day, he secretly played this song that was similar to courting for joy, which was simply a slap in the face of the Li family.
"What does the fifth sister want to do?" Jinhua feigned composure.
"It's nothing, go back with me, I'll act like I didn't see anything." Shaohua raised the corners of her mouth and saw her face change abruptly.
"Don't!" Jinhua shook her head resolutely, she finally had the opportunity to enter the palace, and finally knew that the two princes would come today. Su Shi said that if she blindly waited for Ling's arrangement, the result would only disappoint her. The opportunity is fought for by herself, and she must live a more beautiful life than Wanhua and Shaohua.
Listening to the sound of footsteps outside, as well as the loud laughter of young men, Jinhua's face was happy.
"Qi Niang!" Shaohua suddenly became angry, seeing her turn around and run, saying that it was too late and that it was fast, Shaohua's figure flashed, and he stepped forward to block Jinhua's way. Grabbing her right arm with one hand, and bending it into a vise with the other, he grabbed her neck. When she came back to her senses and saw Jinhua's instantly pale face, Shaohua hurriedly let go of her neck, but tightened her strength and grabbed her arm.
"You, you're crazy, you want to kill me?" It took Jinhua a while to find her voice, and the moment she saw Shaohua's figure, she suddenly felt a suffocation in her throat, and she almost thought she was going to die.
Shaohua didn't expect that her skills suddenly became so neat, as if she was back in the days when she was on horseback. Before Jinhua could stabilize his mind, Shaohua threatened: "You're crazy." I warn you that if you dare to cause trouble in the palace, I will never be polite. I think my father also understands in his heart, he can't do it for you and ruin the entire Li family. ā
However, in Jinhua's eyes, Shaohua has completely become synonymous with terror. She couldn't imagine how Shaohua had just teleported in front of her, and her methods were fierce and vicious, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva, and her voice trembled. "You devil, you're a monster...... I'm going to tell Daddy that you want to kill me. ā
Shaohua didn't bother to explain to her, and dragged her back. "Say whatever you want, but you must come back with me now."
"I don't want it." Jinhua was already frightened at this time and hurriedly shouted.
Hearing the footsteps getting closer and closer, Jinhua almost lost her mind, she was angry, raised her hand and slapped her. Immediately dragged her under a large tree to the side, avoiding people passing by.
With the "Smack! There was a clear sound, Jinhua only felt that his ears were a little rumbling, his eyes were in a trance a few times, and suddenly he was reflected in Shaohua's face. She was so frightened that she almost couldn't even breathe, "Li Jinhua, if you want to pull the entire Li family, I can ruin your face now, you just try." ā
Jinhua covered his beaten face with an empty hand, not to mention crying, he didn't even have an expression, and let Shaohua pull him back. At this moment, she completely believed that Shaohua said every word, for fear that she would really go crazy and ruin her face.
At the same time, Hongyi Hongfang and Yan Kaizhi were already in the Guanlian Pavilion, chatting happily with the imperial concubine and Rouwan.
In Qingguo, when the lady is married, the elder brother in the sect must personally give gifts, and the lady marries, and the brother and sister-in-law add makeup, which has been a century-old tradition. In order to go out in the future, when the lady goes out, when she arrives at her husband's house, she can not be looked down upon by the people of her husband's family. Although Rouwan, as the eldest daughter of the emperor, is not worried about being bullied by her husband's family when she gets married, etiquette still has to be done.
Hongwen was sent out by the emperor, so he asked Hongfang to deliver a congratulatory gift for him. is the proud daughter of the sky, and now she is praised by everyone as if she is a mortal goddess, and she is in a particularly good mood today. The imperial concubine is also very satisfied with today's ceremony, she just wants to let the world know that Princess Rouwan is the most noble lady in Qingguo and the emperor's favorite daughter.
"You, you've been spoiled by these brothers, so don't you hurry up and thank your brothers." Looking at the gentle and childish showing off to her the congratulatory gift from her brother, the imperial concubine chuckled.
When Rouwan heard this, she immediately got up and solemnly saluted the two brothers, "Rouwan thanked the second brother, Brother Hongfang." He winked at Yan Kaizhi again, and said with a smile: "Thank you Brother Kaizhi." ā
Yan Kai turned sideways with a serious face, and returned the salute, "The princess is serious." Although Laneige and Rouwan have a good relationship, in this kind of royal gathering, Yan Kaizhi is still very restrained and cautious about his identity. It's just that Yan Kaizhi carefully apologized, but was ridiculed by Rouwan, and Yan Kaizhi pursed his lips helplessly.
Hongyi shifted his attention without a trace, "Mother, aren't you still at the table?" ā
The imperial concubine smiled: "Look, I forgot, in order to wait for you, I just chatted with these ladies." By the way, the three ladies in Li Ge's old mansion haven't arrived yet? He glanced sideways at the female officer beside him, and the female officer immediately bowed down and went out to ask.
After a while, the female official came back and reported: "Back to the imperial concubine Niangniang, Li Sanniang was waiting outside the pavilion, and the other two were not found." ā
The imperial concubine's face was a little unhappy, "What's the matter, how big is the Furong Pavilion, how come the two of them haven't been found." Go, find out the people quickly, and you can have a feast. All the women in the pavilion also looked at each other, thinking that the lady of the Li family was too rude, and actually let the imperial concubine wait.
"Yes." The female officer took the order and left.
The atmosphere instantly became solemn, Yan Kaizhi glanced outside the pavilion, and watched a group of girls gather together in twos and threes and laughed, feeling a little uneasy. retracted her eyes, just in front of Hongfang, thinking that Hongfang actually abducted Shaohua, she couldn't help but worry about Shaohua, how she would face it after a while.
Hongfang was amused by Yan Kaizhi's provocative eyes, and he asked Mo Yan to send a gift to Li's house, but as expected, they were all returned. So he asked Mo Yan to guard at the door of Li's house, and if someone from Xingyongbo's Mansion went, he would follow him and say that it was sent by Xingyongbo's Mansion. Mo Yan was also curious about why he was still risking the reputation of Yongbo's Mansion at this time, and why did the prince conclude that Yan Kaizhi would also send things.
"Kaizhi, why don't you go and find it." Hongyi broke the deadlock.
The imperial concubine reprimanded: "Nonsense! Kaizhi is also a general now, how can you still be so nonsense. ā
Yan Kaizhi stood up: "Niangniang, don't worry, I'll help find it, I can't delay the banquet." ā
The imperial concubine shook her head, "This can't be ...... either" Before the words were finished, the female official came in and reported: "Imperial concubine Niangniang, the three ladies of the Li family have arrived." At this time, Man Ting's eyes looked out, very curious about what kind of lady she was, and she had to make people go to such great lengths. Only the third princess was unmoved, her eyes lowered, and her face smiled faintly.
The imperial concubine's eyes swept over the faces of Hongfang and the third princess, then looked at the others, and then said, "Call them in first." ā
