Chapter 50: Pear Blossoms Bring Rain

The step stopped.

Xinmei lifted the curtain and said respectfully, "County Lord, Longyang Hall has arrived." ”

A slender snow-white jade hand stretched out on the wrist of the new eyebrow, and a fiery red figure slowly walked out of the step. Slim waist bundle, full of graceful style. The eunuchs of Longyang Hall couldn't help but look at this bright figure in a daze.

It is said that the first beauty in Great Xia is Lu Yinhua, the eldest daughter of General Fuyuan. However, the woman in front of her eyebrows are like distant mountains, her eyes are like the moon, her dark cloud hair is lightly folded, and her snow-white skin is dissipated. The waist is slowly coming. It is no wonder that those literati and scholars often praise people for "handsome eyebrows and eyes, looking forward to Shenfei, the essence of literary color, and forgetting the vulgar." ”

"This father-in-law is annoyed to report, the county lord of Mingjia has arrived." The new eyebrows were slightly restrained, holding the red-clothed beauty with one hand, and while smiling softly, he recalled the gatekeeper who could see God.

The eunuch suddenly came back to his senses, and when he bowed down, he couldn't help but sneak a glance at the red shadow again.

Nu'er stood quietly in place, her eyes deep, Xinmei knew that her master had always been unpredictable, and since the bad news of the general came, she had become more like a vast distant mountain covered in clouds and smoke, and more and more unpredictable.

In the middle of the night, a eunuch hurriedly ran out of the hall and said respectfully, "Please come inside the county lord." ”

Nu'er followed the eunuch who led the way to Emperor Yuan'an's imperial study, she walked very slowly, and she felt heavy at every step. She stood still outside the door of the imperial study for a long time, and once the door was opened, there was no turning back. After all, she has become the most disdainful person in her heart, a person who can use anything to win favors, and will do whatever it takes.

"County Lord, don't let Your Majesty wait for a long time." The new eyebrows whispered in her ear.

The slave raised his hand slightly, and immediately someone opened the door. This is not the first time that Nu'er has come to Longyang Palace, and it will not be the last. But today, when she appeared in a red suit, she felt a few burning glances from above. It was like red-hot iron falling on her.

But her face was still calm, she stepped forward with small steps, and looked up slightly to see that Emperor Yuan'an, the Empress Dowager and the Ronghuang Concubine were sitting above. She bowed down, "The slave greets Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, and the Imperial Concubine Niangniang." ”

The Queen Mother looked the slave up and down carefully for a long time, she frowned, and said in an unkind tone, "Do you know what the summons is today?"

"Back to the Queen Mother, the slave has already heard about it." The slave replied in a low voice, with a faint tremor in her tone.

The Queen Mother sighed and said in a loud voice, "During the mourning period, why don't you wear a vegetarian and red clothes?" The borders of Great Xia can not tolerate unfilial people. ”

Because of Emperor Yuan'an's preference and favor, the Queen Mother, who has always respected the rules of etiquette and religion, has always been dissatisfied with her slaves, and she has not been harsh on the face of Emperor Yuan'an and her late mother on weekdays. It's just that she has been named the lord of the county and is considered a member of the royal family. Today, she is dressed in red and has a holy face, which is really disrespectful of the royal face and a great loss of dignity.

Emperor Rong's concubine looked at Emperor Yuan An, who didn't say a word, and naturally knew that Emperor Yuan An liked this child, and he had repeatedly broken a lot of rules for her in the past two years. Looking at it today, there is nothing abnormal about this, Xu is not good at refuting the face of the Queen Mother, so she has not spoken. So the imperial concubine spoke considerately, "The county lord is still young, and it must be that the palace maids and eunuchs around him did not mention it." The Queen Mother was furious. ”

"This garment is for the slave himself." The slave bit her lower lip as if to restrain the pain of losing her father. The small body trembled uncontrollably, and a little starlight was refracted in the moon-like eyes. She stood on the empty hall and looked very thin, like a wisp of duckweed wandering around, weak and helpless, looking at the world in horror.

Emperor Yuan An was really pitiful when he saw her helpless appearance, and he was also tender. He thought for a moment before he spoke, "But what do you want to say?" Don't be afraid, I'm here. There was tenderness in his tone that he didn't even notice.

Nu'er looked at Emperor Yuan An, his misty eyes full of unspeakable grievances and sorrows. The long eyelashes were soaked with tears, and the slave choked up and said, "My father once told me that the greatest wish in this life is to see the good family of the slave and the appearance of getting married." But now, my father can't see it anymore. The slave came dressed in red to show his heavenly father how beautiful and happy his daughter should be in her wedding dress. Even him, even if he will never be able to see......"

A crystal tear fell, and those previously bright eyes contained endless sadness. Nu'er sobbed lowly, and said, "What's more, Nu'er has received the grace of the saint and has been named the lord of the county and raised in the palace." The palace is His Majesty's palace, and the slave is also half of His Majesty's daughter. The death of my father made me feel sad and heartbroken. How can you be vegetarian in the palace and make Your Majesty tainted with bad luck. ”

Dead people are extremely ominous, Rao is Lu Zhi died fighting for the country, and he is still with bad luck. As the lord of the county, Nu'er has received royal kindness, and her filial piety is to wear filial piety for the palace and to wear filial piety for the saint, isn't she cursing the Son of Heaven?

Tears fell, and the slave's beautiful face left two tear stains. She is a beauty, and crying so much that the pear blossoms and rain are even more distressing. Emperor Yuan An was already soft-hearted, and he was even more distressed when he heard her cry. He motioned to Xu Quan to help the slave up from the ground, "When you are naughty on weekdays, I am helpless." became sensible, but it made me feel distressed. ”

"Yes, Lord Mingjia's filial piety to General Fuyuan is really touching. Even the concubines couldn't help but want to cry. With that, Emperor Rong's concubine took out a handkerchief and rubbed it at the corner of her eye.

The Queen Mother glanced at the imperial concubine lightly, and didn't say anything, Fang Cai'er's words can be said to be reasonable, and if she continues to be embarrassed, it will be unreasonable. The Queen Mother said in a deep voice, "Although your filial piety can be expressed, but etiquette comes first, and it is not good to dress like this all the time during the mourning period." ”

Emperor Yuan An nodded, the worldly vision is indispensable for the royal family. He pondered for a moment and said, "I don't refute your filial piety. I hope you will wear red makeup today, and when General Lu's corpse returns to Shengjing, you will still wear plain clothes. ”

Originally, this red dress was just to create an image of losing his father and taking the overall situation into account. The goal was achieved, and naturally there was no reason to insist, so the slave nodded obediently and said softly, "Listen to the holy order."

"You just said that General Lu's greatest wish is to see the good family of your sisters and marry beautifully." The Queen Mother looked at Emperor Yuan'an, "Emperor, General Lu has made great contributions to Great Xia, and now that he is gone, he must also fulfill his wishes." ”

"That's what the Queen Mother said. It's just that the slave hasn't reached yet, and the engagement is a little anxious now. Emperor Yuan An said.

"General Lu's daughter is not the only one who is the county lord of Mingjia." The Queen Mother didn't have time to care about Emperor Yuan'an's partiality, and continued, "There is still a Huashang county lord living in the Changmu Hall of the mourning family, and there is also a second lady in the general's mansion. These two are the daughters of General Lu, and they have passed the age of peace, and the emperor wants a bowl of water. ”

Emperor Yuan An thought of Lu Yinhua of Changmutang in a daze, he couldn't remember her appearance clearly, but he vaguely remembered that she seemed to be a beauty. He nodded, "Does the queen mother know that the lord of Huashang has a favorite person?" After she is a hero, the young talents of my Great Xia are naturally selected by her. The son will not treat General Lu's blood and blood badly. ”

The Queen Mother nodded with a smile, "The mourning family specially summoned the two sisters today. The Emperor might as well ask them. The Queen Mother looked at the slave, turned her head to Emperor Yuan'an, and said, "As for the marriage of the county lord of Mingjia, let's wait for the year of peace and Lu to mention it." The emperor will not forget her. ”

"It's fine." Emperor Yuan'an bowed his head, and he had already made a decision in his heart about the fate of the slave.

As he was talking, someone came and said, "The lord of Huashang has arrived." ”

Emperor Yuan An waved his hand, "Xuan." ”

The eunuch outside the hall immediately shouted at a sharp voice, "Xuan, the lord of Huashang County has come to see you-"
