Chapter 271
Li Yunqing looked at Xuanyuan Mingyi, who was walking beside him, and said with a faint smile: "Shouldn't His Royal Highness King Yi be busy with the selection of concubines recently, and he still has time to come to my mansion." ()”
Xuanyuan Mingyi was slightly stunned, and Xuanyuan Yuchan said strangely: "Yunqing, you just came back, how did you know that Mingyi was going to choose a concubine?" ”
"It's hard to know if you don't know." Ruxi happened to help the maids pass by with plates, and muttered dissatisfiedly.
Xuanyuan Yuchan raised her eyebrows slightly, and said softly: "What's wrong?" ”
"It's nothing, I just happened to meet it on the road." Li Yunqing said lightly, her eyes fell on the tea trees that were safe and sound, and her eyes were filled with joy.
Luckily, they're all fine.
The white-sleeved dance came over from the side and said with a smile: "I'm afraid that those daughters who treat the master as a concubine to choose together, are still hostile." ”
Hearing this, Li Yunqing nodded slightly.
Xuanyuan Qiyu glanced at the white sleeve dance and pursed his mouth: "How do you know?" ”
"Hmph." The white sleeve dance hummed proudly, "Of course you don't know women, three women are all a play, let alone a group." ”
"I want to see what you said." Xuanyuan Qiyu didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement, and hurriedly asked, "Brother Huang, when will you choose a concubine, remember to call me!" ”
Xuanyuan Mingyi shook his head and said helplessly: "It's tomorrow." ”
"Well, tomorrow I'll go with the dog minions! Master, is it going or not? Xuanyuan Qiyu grabbed Xuanyuan Ran, looked at Li Yunqing and asked.
Li Yunqing was about to refuse, so he heard Xuanyuan Yuchan say: "Yunqing, I'm afraid you have to go, my father wants to ask you to take charge of the concubine selection with Concubine Huagui, and it is in Tonghuatai." ”
Xuanyuan Zhai calculated quite accurately, just waiting for the daughters and Li Yunqing to arrive in the imperial capital, and the next day began to choose Princess Yi.
"I'm tired of my lordship." Xuanyuan Mingyi politely bowed his hand to Li Yunqing, with apologies in his voice.
Looking at her face, you can see that Li Yunqing is tired of traveling, and on the second day, she was bothered to choose the princess, which is really a bit difficult for a strong person.
"It should." Li Yunqing said lightly, she could expect that she was the only official in the imperial capital who could choose the princess wholeheartedly without deliberately suppressing it, and His Majesty had no choice.
"Speaking of which, what kind of princess does Mingyi want?" Xuanyuan Yuchan smiled dignified and asked softly.
The eyes of the surrounding gossip were all condensed on Xuanyuan Mingyi's body.
Suddenly gossiped, Xuanyuan Mingyi was a little embarrassed, pondered for a while, and said slowly: "Be dignified and virtuous." ”
"Poof!" Xuanyuan Qiyu sneered, "If the eighth woman chooses a concubine, she will definitely not be chosen, hahahaha!" ”
The white sleeve dance gritted his teeth, and the green tendons on his forehead burst out: "Xuanyuan Qiyu!" If you don't hurt me, I'll die! ”
As he spoke, the white-sleeved dance had already run to Xuanyuan Qiyu's side, raising his hand to beat him.
"Eight women are beating people! Dog minion escort! Xuanyuan Qiyu dodged all of a sudden, ran behind Xuanyuan Ran Quercus in a few steps, hid behind Xuanyuan Ran's human shield, and stuck out his tongue at the white sleeve dance, "Slightly, Ba Po"
Whitesleeve Dance clenched his fists, grabbed Xuanyuan Ranqi's arm and pushed it back, Xuanyuan Qiyu was revealed, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly ran to the yard, and Whitesleeve Dance immediately followed with a fierce and vicious look.
Not long after, Xuanyuan Qiyu's miserable cry came from the courtyard.
Xuanyuan Yuchan smiled and couldn't close her mouth: "I know how to read the sleeve dance in the day, but I didn't expect to have such a naughty side." ”
Not much.
Yuegu looked at the dishes on the table and whispered to Li Yunqing, "Miss, it's time for dinner." ”
"Okay." Li Yunqing answered.
Then they had dinner in the hall, and when they were done, it was already twilight.
Subsequently, the people of the Bai family came to urge, after all, she was a daughter who had not left the cabinet, and she was still out of order at such a late hour.
As a last resort, the white-sleeved dance could only say goodbye to everyone: "Master, I'll come to play with you next time." ”
Li Yunqing smiled and nodded.
Xuanyuan Qiyu pursed his mouth: "Eighth woman, don't come, it will scare people." ”
Hearing this, Bai Sleeve Wu glared at Qi Yu fiercely, and did not make too exaggerated movements, after all, the Bai family is here, she can't be too wordless and unspoken, otherwise she will have to squat in the small black house when she goes back, and she won't be able to come out for several months.
"Slow down on the road." Xuanyuan Yuchan instructed softly.
"Got it, take your leave." The white sleeves danced and smiled, and then got into the Bai family's carriage, and the carriage drove slowly and disappeared into the prosperous and fallen avenue.
"Alright, it's time for you to go back to the palace." Li Yunqing looked at Xuanyuan Qiyu who wanted to sneak back to the Emperor's Mansion to play with a cold gaze.
"Oh, Master, let's play for a while, it's not that I want to play, it's a dog minion, he won't go back, right, dog minion?" Xuanyuan Qiyu smiled wryly, and secretly touched Xuanyuan Ranyu's arm.
The corners of Xuanyuan Quercus's mouth twitched, and he didn't intend to cooperate with him.
"Aren't you going to see His Royal Highness King Yi choosing a concubine tomorrow, you won't see the excitement when you get up late." Li Yunqing said lightly.
"Yes, then let's go back first, goodbye, Master!" Xuanyuan Qiyu came and went quickly, pulling up Xuanyuan Ran Quercus and running, making it hard for a bunch of palace maids and eunuchs to chase behind.
Then Xuanyuan Mingyi also left.
Xuanyuan Yuchan shook Li Yunqing's hand, her beautiful eyes were full of worry, and she asked softly: "You, it's okay to rest, tomorrow's thing is to watch a lively scene, don't bother too much." ”
Li Yunqing smiled slightly: "I know." ”
"Then I'll go first, so I can rest." Xuanyuan Yuchan stepped into the carriage and did not forget to turn around and repeat a sentence.
"Hmm." Li Yunqing continued to nod helplessly, watching Xuanyuan Yuchan walk into the carriage and disappear at the end of the avenue, she slowly lowered her head and exhaled a white breath.
"Miss, it's cold at night, let's come into the house." Yuegu walked up quickly, frowned slightly, and put the snow fox fur cloak on Li Yunqing.
Ruxi also came over and handed the hand stove that had just been heated to Li Yunqing.
Seeing that this group of people were busy coming and going, Li Yunqing didn't bother them anymore, so he said, "Okay, I'll go back and rest." ”
Subsequently, Li Yunqing walked into the boudoir that she had not entered for more than two months.
The boudoir was cleaned very clean, especially the books she loved to read, which were neatly organized, and there were two charcoal basins in the room, which was warm, and she washed up casually and fell asleep.
The tea trees outside the window are still very lush in winter, and the shadows of the trees are swaying, sprinkling the moonlight on the ground, and the courtyard is quiet.
With a bright moon in the sky, starry stars, and a clear sky, there must be a good weather tomorrow.
Following.
Li Yunqing, who was originally tired of traveling, should have slept a little longer, but today she was going to sit at the banquet of Xuanyuan Mingyi's princess, so she could only get up from the warm quilt early.
After washing up casually, he sat down in front of the dresser and let Yuegu pour herself.
Yuegu looked at Li Yunqing in the bronze mirror, and said with a gentle smile: "It's good to finally be able to comb Miss's hair here again." ”
She brought a hosta to pull up half of Li Yunqing's green silk, and tied the green silk under it with a ribbon, leaving only two strands hanging on both sides.
Li Yunqing is wearing a newly designed dress from Wuling today, a long skirt dominated by white dark lines, a lilac placket and skirt, the skirt is embroidered with a fine auspicious cloud pattern, the waist is embellished with crystal clear white, and the arms are tightened with purple ribbons.
Coupled with the slightly solemn bun, the girl's immaturity faded away, as if she was a generation of emperors who looked down on the world.
She looked at herself in the bronze mirror, satisfied with her chin, this skirt is quite good-looking, but she is used to wearing Tsing Yi, and it looks a little unpleasant.
Then, according to his official position, he got into a luxurious carriage, surrounded by countless servants, and went to Tonghuatai.
Tonghuatai is a small building on the lake in the imperial capital, because there are countless tung flowers planted around, and it is rumored that it was planted by a prince many years ago for his beloved princess, and it has become a place of marriage here, and it is an excellent place for many princes to choose princesses.
Along the way, the people retreated, and the carriage drove away slowly.
About half an hour later, Li Yunqing can see the lake from the small window, the small buildings on the lake are mostly bamboo buildings, the shape is solemn and elegant, the lakeside is a paulownia flower, although the leaves have withered, but the indifferent and bleak beauty, it is also so beautiful that people sigh.
Such a view is also very appetizing to Li Yunqing.
The carriage stopped in front of Tonghua Terrace, Li Yunqing walked down slowly, and saw that dozens of carriages had been parked here, all of them were gorgeous and magnificent, presumably the daughters had arrived.
and the palace maid and eunuch standing aside, you can also know that the gorgeous concubine has arrived.
Although Concubine Hua was born in a poor family, Xuanyuan Mingyi is the eldest son of the emperor after all, and his status is noble, and the daughters of those magistrates naturally want to sit in the position of princess.
In that way, his family will be able to rise to the top, worry-free food and clothing, and prosperous scenery will be ahead.
Therefore, today's daughters can be described as competing for beauty, and it is estimated that they began to dress up before dawn, for fear of being compared with others.
After all, he is sitting at the banquet of choosing a concubine as an emperor, and Li Yunqing must have the style of a high-ranking official.
According to the laws of Daqin, in front of her were two maids with their heads bowed respectfully, holding a hanging brocade stove, and the stove burned priceless incense, opening the way for Li Yunqing.
Li Yunqing walked behind, behind him were Yuegu and Ruxi, two personal maids, and then behind were two rows of four rows of maids, as well as three rows of two rows of maids, all bowing their heads and bowing respectfully. At the back, there are Yu Ban and Cao Ba, with cold weapons on their waists to protect her safety at any time.
A large group of people walked into Tonghuatai in a cluster, in Daqin, I am afraid that only the emperor and queen travel, there is such a momentum.
When he crossed the bamboo pai lake and came to the attic in front of him, the eunuch standing on the side hurriedly lowered his head, opened his sharp voice and shouted: "The emperor has arrived!" ”
