Chapter 21 – Exam Commencement [Revised]
Shen Guifei's green silk hair was combed into a gorgeous bun, beautiful and graceful, and a seven-treasure gold step in her hair swayed, reflecting her face like a hibiscus. The pearl the size of the little finger was as bright as snow, and the stars shimmered in the hair. Look at her pair of phoenix eyes, clear and bright, but mysterious, unfathomable, such as willow-like eyebrows, small and delicate nose, as light as a cherry as a winged mouth, rippling on the delicate and flawless face of the smile, charming and moving, set thousands of customs and one, tempting people's hearts. The fair skin has two faint blush of redness,
Although Shen Guifei is not young, at this time, looking at her, she looks like a girl of the right age, with a flower and moon appearance, and a hibiscus out of the water. It is like clear and clear ice and snow, very beautiful and graceful!
The middle-aged emperor took the fragrant tea that Shen Guifei had just made, and the white bone china was shining in his wide palm. He looked at Shen Guifei and said lightly: "Concubine Ai wants to make a joke with these young ladies, naturally it is harmless, but you must pay attention to proportion, after all, here, including Princess Siluo of other countries, if it hurts the harmony, it will not be good!" ”
When Shen Guifei heard this, she hurriedly replied: "The emperor can rest assured, the concubine is already secretly watched, and she will definitely not hurt Princess Siluo for half a point!" ”
This princess Siluo, I heard that it was brought by another country and dedicated to the emperor of the current dynasty, and now, because she is still young, she has not officially entered the palace. This time, Shen Guifei was a pro-concubine and wanted to invite all the famous ladies, and when this Princess Siluo heard it, she clamored to come, and she wanted to mix in with the young ladies, and she was not allowed to reveal her identity, which made Shen Guifei hate her teeth itching, but there was nothing she could do!
Originally, this Princess Siluo was messing around in the palace all day long, and the emperor connived, but I didn't see how much I liked it, but now that I look at the emperor's meaning, I actually like it tightly? It seems that she still underestimated this princess Siluo!
Shen Guifei was so angry that she gritted her teeth in her heart, but on the surface, she didn't dare to show half of it. She said with a sincere expression: "If the emperor is worried about Princess Siluo, why don't you let the concubine invite her out?" How about watching it with the emperor? ”
The emperor shook his head slightly: "Siluo is still young, sometimes it is inevitable to mess around, forget it, since she likes to play, let her go, Concubine Ai only needs to ask people to pay attention to it, don't let people hurt her!" ”
Shen Guifei heard this, and hurriedly agreed. But secretly, her palms were secretly clenched, and she secretly remembered the name Siro!
Siluo, it's not that I'm going to deal with you, it's you, you shouldn't occupy the emperor's heart - and in this palace, every woman who gets the emperor's favor will not live long, including you!
The emperor and the concubine gossip, as the Shen family couple of Dingguo Gong, naturally couldn't interject, they just laughed with each other while echoing the emperor's words.
As soon as Shen Guifei raised her head, she was touching Emperor Yan Yude's deep, but thoughtful eyes, Shen Guifei was startled in her heart, and hurriedly smiled and said, "Your Majesty, the hour should be almost up!" ”
Suddenly, a young guard rose up outside the door, it was Kang Su, he first saluted the emperor, and then solemnly reported: "Your Majesty, concubine, everything has been prepared, please move!" ”
Emperor Yan Yude nodded, and then strode past Shen Guifei and walked forward. And Shen Guifei took a deep breath, and then she kept up!
I have to say that this emperor's mind is too deep, she has been by his side for more than ten years, but she still can't see his heart clearly, and any of his thoughts!
Seeing that Yan Yude and Shen Guifei were both out of the door, Shen Guogong and his wife exchanged a look with each other, and then followed. At present, the emperor's prejudice against the Zhou family has become deeper and deeper. In addition, the queen mother controls the harem, which is deeply disgusted by the emperor, and it seems that the emperor is ready to take the Zhou family in the near future!
And the emperor frequently visited the Dingguo Mansion, but was he hinting at anything? Then, he has to find a time to tell his daughter to be careful and not to make any mistakes!
The group of people, each with their own thoughts, and then, walked towards the vestibule - today, what Shen Guifei invited the emperor to watch was not only a play but also a bureau, but the meaning of this, I am afraid that only the people who set up the bureau and those who are outside the bureau know it, right?
Duan Qingming and the others were taken by Mama Yan, and they didn't know how long they had been walking until they arrived in an independent courtyard. Duan Qingming noticed that this courtyard was very remote, and in the middle of the entire courtyard, there was only one house that was extremely well enclosed, and other than that, there was nothing.
And Yan Mama glanced at the aristocratic ladies who were so tired that they could barely walk, her eyes flashed slightly, she stood silently at the door, watching more than a dozen beauties rush in, but she led someone to stand on the door, and then, after seeing that the number of people was correct, she bowed down and retreated!
Those aristocratic ladies, on weekdays, can be said to be pampered, often accompanied by carriages and horses, small sedan chairs in and out, how can they stand the pain of trekking? Now, as soon as I saw that there was a room to rest and a stool to sit on, I couldn't care about half a minute anymore, so I grabbed a place to sit down, and I didn't want to move a single inch anymore!
Duan Qingming entered the house and looked around quietly, only to see that this was an empty room, except for a few stools, a table, and at the main entrance, there was an incense platform dedicated to Guanyin, except for these, there was nothing!
Duan Qingming pulled Xue Ninglan with one hand and Siluo with the other, she didn't grab a stool and find a place to sit like those young ladies who completely disregarded their manners, but as soon as she entered the room, she pulled Xue Ninglan, who was a little out of breath, and Siluo, who was also too tired to speak.
Seeing that those young ladies didn't let me and I won't let you because of a stool, Siluo said with some puzzlement: "Qingming, why don't you let us sit on the stool!" ”
Xue Ninglan also looked at Duan Qingming, and she believed that she didn't seem to understand why Duan Qingming would pull them and drill into the corner!
Duan Qingming said softly: "Two sisters, we are standing in the corner, and when we get into chaos, we will not be separated or stepped on!" ”
Xue Ninglan condensed her eyebrows, as if she couldn't believe Duan Qingming's words, and Siluo already wanted to jump: "They dare to do this to me?" ”
Duan Qingming reminded: "Siluo, now, we have to rely on ourselves, you save some effort!" ”
Siluo glanced at Duan Qingming and lowered her head in frustration!
Yes, these young ladies have a noble status, if they really want to entertain guests or something, they won't be in this kind of place, right? It seems that the so-called exam is here, but what Siro can't imagine is that in this narrow and dirty room, what can test them?
Mama Yan looked at these tired aristocratic ladies, and stared at her eyes slightly, and a flash of light flashed in her originally cloudy eyes. It's just that her eyes are shining when she sees Duan Qingming and his party. And when they held their hands tightly, they froze slightly, and yet, after a while, she turned away!
What's even more unexpected is that as soon as she went out with her front foot, the back foot actually locked the door!
The room was huge, but the windows and doors were closed. As soon as the door was closed, the light in the room became even darker!
And outside the window with new window paper, something hung straight down, covering the last light in the room.
In the room, there was darkness, and the young ladies who had their own postures and collapsed to the ground as soon as they entered the room felt indescribable fear in this darkness!
In the darkness, someone screamed and jumped, as if something had crawled quickly past her feet. Immediately afterward, the thing seemed to keep crawling forward, crawling all the way, and I don't know whose foot it stepped on again, and it caused a commotion!
Xue Ninglan was a little scared, she clenched Duan Qingming's hand, and whispered: "Qingming, don't be afraid, hold my hand tightly, nothing will happen!" ”
Siluo on one side also gently shook Duan Qingming's wrist and whispered in her ear: "Qingming, don't be afraid, they don't dare to do anything to us!" ”
