Chapter 108: Entering the Palace for the First Time
In the early morning, the sun is in the ears, and the slight thread is in the heart. The day of entering the palace has finally come.
The sky is still tired of autumn, the morning mist hangs on the horizon, as if it is about to come out, and a few red clouds appear, covering the white of the fish belly on the horizon.
Everything seems silent, but it is churning in everyone's heart.
Qingrou wore a light green plain dress and light makeup, and walked out of the gate of the palace in a clear and beautiful manner. She knew that she must act restrained when she enters the palace today, and she must not be too glamorous and public, otherwise it is possible to be sent out of the palace before she sees the emperor.
Mrs. Xiao, who was in high spirits, waited by the sedan chair early, and when she saw her come out, she greeted her with a smile: "Good daughter, can everything be prepared?" The gates should have been opened, shall we leave now?" ”
Qingrou smiled and nodded, and walked to the carriage with the support of Mrs. Xiao, but the moment she stepped into the door, she paused, looked back into the depths of the palace, and finally did not wait for the person.
couldn't help laughing at his indecision, tugged at the corner of his lips, no longer hesitated, turned around and stepped into the car.
And on the high platform in the distance, watching the smoke from the dust of the carriage, Xiao Wei slowly slipped down a line of tears in the octagonal pavilion......
You didn't give me a look, but I always smiled at you.
Those who missed missed missed after all, and no one was powerless to recover all that was lost. There was no need to explain, no need to look back, he only knew that on such an early morning, he gazed deeply at the distant carriage and horses, and then threw all the memories of yesterday in the wind to protect the new her next.
A flying bird crosses the delicate corner tower, the ancient trees are towering, the green trees are shady, the red walls and yellow tiles, the gold is brilliant.
Layers of gold bricks and silver tiles, purple pillars and red beams, all of which are extremely luxurious.
The white jade paved ground shone with a warm light, the distant mist seemed to shroud the unreal palace, the phoenix spread its wings on the cornices carved from sandalwood, and the wall panels made of floating windows carved from green tiles and jade. Under the clear blue sky, the golden glazed tile heavy eaves of the palace look particularly brilliant.
Qingrou stood in the corner of the imperial garden, looking at this novelty stupidly, her eyes shining with dazzling light.
And the other corner of the garden.
"Yo, Grandpa Kun, we really haven't seen each other for a long time, how are you doing?" Mrs. Xiao smiled and asked a father-in-law who seemed to have a face.
"Linglong? Who should I be, dare to call me to meet early in the morning, don't you know that I am busy? Concubine Li is still waiting for me to accompany me to enjoy the flowers. Kun Bao was a little surprised to see Mrs. Xiao.
"I can't help it, otherwise how dare I work for you? After all, you're not the little father-in-law you used to be. Mrs. Xiao smiled.
Kun Bao glanced at her and whispered, "This is not your blessing. ”
"Hehe, where, it's not your father-in-law's blessing. I really have something to do today, so I dare to come to you. Mrs. Xiao said.
"Hmph, if I hadn't been blessed, I would have killed you more than ten years ago, and you would still have the face to see the Sprinkle family." Kun Bao snorted coldly.
Mrs. Xiao didn't make a fuss, but sneered: "You can't say that, Gonggong Kun, if it wasn't for my decision back then, you wouldn't be in this position now, right?" Why don't you have a sense of gratitude? I don't care, you have to help me with this, otherwise if I have no way to live, we will all die together! ”
"Linglong, don't force the family too much!" Kun Bao said angrily with a sharp voice.
"I didn't force you, it's just that this is a major event related to the rest of my life, if you don't help me, I have no choice. When the time comes, you don't blame me for what I can say and do. Mrs. Xiao said coldly.
Kun Bao saw that she was serious, so he no longer insisted, and said angrily: "What's the matter, you talk about it first." Let's talk about it first, I won't do anything that kills people for money. ”
Seeing that Kun Bao's tone softened, Mrs. Xiao also changed her tone, and said to him pitifully: "Don't be annoyed, I know that you are still angry with me, so I haven't bothered you for so many years, right?" Even if I see it from afar when I enter the palace, don't I avoid it? If it weren't for this time, I really wouldn't have come to beg you, good father-in-law, you can help Linglong again, I remember your goodness. ”
Kun Bao's tone was not so hard, he thought about it for a while, and sighed: "Say, what's the matter." ”
"That's the case, you have also seen, I am now middle-aged, and my appearance is no longer comparable to that year, a while ago the house married a wife for my son I picked up, but I didn't think that I had a sudden illness soon after I got married, and I didn't die or live. I had no choice but to bring my daughter-in-law's sister to the palace to accompany her. But who knows that it is easy to please God, and it is difficult to send God, this girl is not going to leave in my house, and I found that my prince looks at her more and more wrongly, I am very afraid. If the prince marries her one day, as soon as this little daughter-in-law passes through the door, where will our mother and son survive! I don't want to gamble all my life, give up so much, and end up with nothing. Mrs. Xiao cried aggrievedly as she spoke:
So, I thought of a rut, I coaxed her to say that if I can ask someone to send her to the palace, the future days will not only be fine clothes and food, but also may see the emperor ascend to the sky. That girl was a brainless person, and when she heard me say this, she agreed immediately. So, I sent it to her. ”
"See the emperor? It's not that easy. Kun Bao frowned.
I didn't want Mrs. Xiao to say, "I know it's not easy, but I think that as long as I send her, I won't care about other things." Anyway, she entered the palace, can she go out again? It just so happened that the show girl election was going to be an election in a few days, so I went to Concubine Li, gave the girl a chance, and asked her to arrange to see if she could see the saint. Concubine Li, for the sake of our good sisters, finally agreed. ”
Kun Bao snorted coldly: "You will beg someone." Ingenious. ”
Mrs. Xiao pretended not to hear his sarcasm, and continued: "So, I brought that girl today, but there is still a key issue that must be helped by my father-in-law. ”
"Does the Sprinkle family have that much ability? What do you say? Kun Bao raised his eyebrows.
"Well...... That's ......" A trace of panic flashed in Mrs. Xiao's eyes, but she quickly calmed down: "That's the case, people, although I sent it, I don't dare to guarantee whether she is finished......"
"What? Linglong, you are too bold, you are a bully, do you know it! Kun Bao said in a low voice.
"Father-in-law, don't shout, I'm afraid people will listen." Mrs. Xiao hurriedly comforted: "Isn't this also a guess." That girl doesn't tell me the truth, you know, I can't go back and ask my prince if there is such a thing, if not, my grandfather will be angry and have to stop me! So, how dare I mention this, I can only gamble! ”
After hearing this, Kun Bao's face softened: "Then, what can the Sprinkle family do." ”
Mrs. Xiao smiled all over her face: "I just want to see her on the night of the saint, and ask my father-in-law to help me send me a blood bag in advance......"
