Chapter 127: Mingxuan Brand
Bihe had seen Xuan Yuehuai go to Sinan Wangfu as a guest before, but she always watched from a distance and never approached, and now it is the first time to see Xuan Yuehuai's true face at such a close distance, and Xuan Yuehuai entered the door with Nian Yingxi in her arms, and now when she heard Qianqian say this, she couldn't help but envy a yearning, "I really didn't expect that the prince of Pinghu, who has always been as free and easy as the breeze, also has such a considerate side, Miss is really a blessing!" ”
Zi Die, who hadn't completely put down her thoughts, listened, except for pursing her lips and smiling, she didn't say much, it wasn't that she didn't want to speak, but she was afraid that as soon as she opened her mouth, she would let Nian Yingxi hear something.
Originally, she planned to bury this secret deep in her heart, and if she found out to Nian Yingxi, she was worried that things would be more complicated than she imagined.
But even if she didn't speak, in the afterglow of Nian Yingxi's eyebrows, she still took in her sour expression, and when she raised her eyes, Nian Yingxi wrung her brows at Qianqian and Bihe, "Don't talk nonsense, you can also take out the things that can't be beaten by the eight poles and say, don't you all go to sleep for me, Ming'er who gets up late is careful that I will leave her behind!" ”
Bihe and Qianqian shrank their necks, knowing that Yingxi was a person who did what they said, and they didn't dare to say anything more and summoned Zidie to sleep together.
Nian Yingxi looked at Zidie's slightly heavy back, and wanted to ask her to stay, but after opening her mouth a few times, she still watched silently as she walked out of the house with Qianqian and Bihe.
He is not Xuan Yuehuai's person, how can he have the right to take care of things that have nothing to do with him? Maybe if she didn't say this, it was estimated that Zi Die would do it according to her own wishes, but once she intervened, Zi Die would probably be too careful or simply not look at Xuan Yuehuai again, after all, Zi Die's self-esteem is so strong.
What's more, fate is predestined, but it is not artificially unbreakable, everyone has their own choices and complexes, why should she help others decide anything?
Sinan Palace, Shulan Temple.
The cold ground spread straight from her back to her limbs, making Yu Shulan on the ground slowly recover consciousness from the dampness and coldness.
She slowly opened her eyes, her eyes slowly changing from sluggishness to horror after aftershock, all the experience of last night was like a real nightmare, and she still has palpitations in her heart.
Lying on the ground, she looked sideways at the sky that had gradually brightened outside, and breathed a deep sigh of relief, while supporting her tired and sore body, she secretly rejoiced that no matter whether what happened last night was a ghost or a nightmare, she was safe.
Holding on to the wall and slowly standing up, Yu Shulan was about to pour herself a cup of tea, but suddenly her eyes were stunned again, and in the blink of an eye, she shook her head in disbelief, trying to find the familiar corner of the house, but what made her fall to the bottom again was that the room in front of her was indeed her house, but at this moment, this room that once made her magnificent and proud was full of white silk hanging from the beams.
The white silk that was white and blue swayed gently along the breeze blowing into the room from the window, and in Yu Shulan's eyes, it became the most fearful talisman in her heart.
"Ah——!h A scream from the deepest part of my heart came out of Shulan Garden, pierced into the clouds, and completely recalled it in the Sinan Palace.
Sinan Palace, Chen Yuan.
The oil is exhausted, the lamp is dry, and the morning light is white.
Xuan Yuchen's eyes, which had not slept all night, were as red as blood, and his mind kept recalling the words of the secret guard when he came back last night, and a heart that had already been held in a high place was smashed into the abyss.
The secret guard was cultivated by him since he was a child, so he believed in the words of the secret guard, and it was precisely because of this that he had nowhere to vent his anger, because the secret guard told him that he actually saw Xuan Yuehuai's figure in Nian Yingxi's courtyard last night, and Nian Yingxi was untidy and charming, as if he was having fun with Xuan Yuehuai.
He didn't know when Nian Yingxi and Xuan Yuehuai hooked up, but what he really couldn't stand was that his woman was so bold to have an affair with another man, which made him extremely unbalanced and embarrassed in his heart.
However, since he didn't bring Nian Yingxi over last night, he couldn't act rashly anymore, and could only wait for the canonization to find an opportunity to get close to her.
"Lord ......"
A crying shout outside the door made Xuan Yuchen in the house have to put away his thoughts, he got up impatiently to open the door, but saw that it was Mama Qi kneeling in front of him.
"Crying early in the morning, what kind of system!" Xuan Yuchen looked at Mama Qi lying on the ground, twisted her eyebrows and shouted angrily, Yu Shulan's people are really getting more and more unruly.
Mama Qi was already teary-eyed at this time, and her heart was anxious, where could she still care about Xuan Yuchen's tone, seeing Xuan Yuchen open the door, she hurriedly rubbed her body and held his ankle, crying, "Lord Wang, go and see the princess...... Princess, princess, she's crazy......"
"What!" Xuan Yuchen wrinkled his eyebrows and was stunned for a long time, as if he was sure whether he had heard it wrong, or Mama Qi had said it wrong.
Seeing that Xuan Yuchen didn't move, Mama Qi thought that Xuan Yuchen didn't want to deal with this matter, so she couldn't help crying again, "Lord, you and the princess are so husband and wife!" Now only you can save the princess! ”
Hearing this, Xuan Yuchen was sure that he had heard correctly, and couldn't help but step directly out of the threshold and walked in the direction of Shulan Courtyard.
Xuanguo Imperial Palace, the Palace of Nourishing the Heart.
With the first chirping of the birds perched nearby, in the huge courtyard in front of the door of the Yangxin Palace, Gui Luhai, who was accustomed to getting up early, with a few little eunuchs and palace maids with toiletries, waited in a neat row at the door of the closed gate.
Today is the day to welcome the new queen into the palace, although the ancestors have made a rule, saying that the new queen does not need to go to court on the first day of entering the palace, but Gui Luhai still rushed over early with the people who were waiting, and he was very afraid that the emperor would not see the people who were waiting when he got up and was angry.
This is his shrewdness as a slave, and it is also his duty to be a slave.
Just after Yin Shi, a low and somewhat hoarse voice came from the Heart Cultivation Palace, "Gui Luhai, come in." ”
Gui Luhai, who was outside the door, listened to this familiar voice, stretched out his hand to push open the double-opening door that was more than two people high, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief as he stepped into it, fortunately he was waiting here early in the morning, otherwise if the emperor did not get a response to this shout, I am afraid that he would be cut lightly.
As Gui Luhai entered the door, the other palace maids and eunuchs also followed in his footsteps, and gently walked into the front hall of the Heart Cultivation Palace, respectfully and silently waiting for a while to freshen up the emperor.
Gui Luhai walked into the inner room alone, stepped over the arch at the entrance of the hall, and stretched out his hand to gently lift the bright yellow bed curtain scattered on the ground.
On the bed, Xuan Yining had already sat up against the bed, his full forehead was shining with a smooth finish, and his bottomless eyes were terrifyingly clear, if it weren't for the dark dense hair that hung down on his shoulders to indicate his laziness after waking up at the moment, it was impossible to believe that he had just woken up less than a moment.
Gui Luhai, who was accustomed to him opening his eyes, didn't say much, and after hanging the curtains on both sides, he waited for Xuan Yining to get up and get dressed.
"It's rare that you don't need to go to court today, why doesn't the emperor rest for a while?" Gui Luhai's fingers flexibly tied Xuan Yining's coiled buttons from his waist to his neck, and he wanted to break the peace in the room without words.
Xuan Yining, who had his hands stretched out, raised his neck slightly, and did not Shi Shiran say until Gui Luhai finished tying the last button, "Several small countries near the border pass have become more and more difficult to be quiet recently, and the excerpts of the upper play have become a mountain, where do I get more sleep?" ”
Gui Luhai is a shadow behind Xuan Yining, naturally he knows that there is a possibility of a riot at the border pass recently, and now seeing Xuan Yining frowning about this matter, his eyebrows turned, and he couldn't help but smile and said, "The border pass can toss a few tricks again, maybe this new queen comes, just this good omen can calm their restlessness, Chong Xi Chong, Chong is not a dislike?" ”
"Flim Flam." Xuan Yining lowered his arm with a sneer and walked out of the back room, "Queen Jiaxi entered the palace today, how are the things in the palace prepared?" ”
A few little eunuchs guarding the front hall saw Xuan Yining walk out. Hurriedly beckoned the palace maids to come forward and wait for washing.
Gui Luhai followed behind him and nodded respectfully, "If you go back to the emperor, Queen Jiaxi's Fengqi Palace, the servants sent someone to clean it up early in the morning, and the grandmothers who taught etiquette for Queen Jiaxi are also ready to wait, and the concubines of the other palaces will arrive at the banquet hall at the time of today's Shen and participate in the family banquet to welcome Queen Jiaxi." ”
"It's Mali." Spit out the lightly salted mouthwash made of mint leaves in his mouth, Xuan Yining put the golden Gu made of pure gold in his hand in the tray held by the palace maid, "After a while, you go and send someone to fetch a Mingxuan tablet and take it out of the palace directly, if Queen Jiaxi refuses to obediently get into the carriage, give her the jade card." ”
Gui Luhai was stunned for a moment, for fear that he had heard it wrong, or that Xuan Yining had said the wrong persuasion, "Your Majesty, this Mingxuan card has always been only awarded by ministers with high merit, and even if it is a reward, the slave has never heard of such a valuable reward when the new queen has not entered the palace gate!" ”
The Mingxuan card in the mouth of Gui Luhai and Xuan Yining was created by the first Emperor Xuanguo in order to thank the ministers who had made great contributions to him when he helped him fight the country.
The minister who owns this jade plaque can not only see the king not kneel, but also can use this inscription to block a capital crime when he commits a serious mistake.
Later, this inscription was retained by the successive Emperor Xuanguo, but although this reward was reserved, no one has ever received this honor since the first Emperor Xuanguo.
