Chapter 21 (Show Girl Assessment)
"I'm just not having a good life, I've been abandoned since I was a child, what if you have the same experience as me? No matter how bad I am, I can take good care of my mother by myself, and you still say that I am a little chick with the wings of a mother? Don't you feel ashamed? ”
"If you don't open your mouth, you're a fairy, and if you don't open your mouth, you're a ruffian." Gong Yun slandered and walked away, he felt that he was probably not an opponent in the fight, and he might suffer a loss if he couldn't do it. These three little ladies have only learned nothing, but their verbal skills are not weak.
"Yao'er, it's so beautiful." As soon as the queen entered the main hall, she greeted Qin Yao.
"Queen Mother, let's go." Qin Yao went over to pull the queen.
"Don't pull me to pull the king." The queen smiled and sent Qin Yao to Gong Yun's side.
"Let's go, Brother Yun." Qin Yao grabbed Gong Yun and followed behind the queen and Mama Rong, followed by several palace maids.
"See how much you match?" Mama Rong smiled and asked the queen secretly. "You said that Qin Hong sent her daughter away, did she hide it for the prince?"
"A general match is a general match, but the knowledge is a little worse." The queen nodded regretfully.
"Eh, Niangniang, if she hadn't been sent to the countryside, wouldn't she be the same as Qin Hong's other two daughters now?" Mama Rong reminded.
"That's the same, teach slowly, right?" The queen replied.
"I think this kid is very talented, and it's easy to teach, do you see the way she walks? Like a country girl? Learn things quickly. Mama Rong looked back and praised.
"If she's really stupid, I can't look down on her!" The queen smiled and got into the car accompanied by Mama Rong.
Gong Yun also got into a chariot with his specifications in the back.
Qin Yao stopped in front of the car and didn't move, fiddling with the skirt with both hands, but unfortunately the skirt was a little too big to lift it completely. This is a dress, the design is very intricate, and the front face will slip behind it.
"I'm really convinced." Gong Yun turned back, helplessly dragged her armpit and lifted her up directly.
The chariots in the palace are all open-topped, with only a symbolic roof, which is ornate but does not serve much purpose.
"Don't speak when you get to the Green Court." Gong Yun warned.
The chariot walked very slowly and steadily, and the Fengyi Hall was originally not very far from the Bicui Pavilion, but it was necessary to go around a big circle by taking the chariot.
Qin Yao is not in a hurry, there are not many opportunities to enter the palace to see the scenery, and most people do not have this opportunity in their lifetime.
A platform has been erected in the courtyard of the Green Pavilion, which is very simple but luxurious. There are also many shelves erected on both sides of the front of the platform, on which are hung portraits of selected girls. Underneath the portrait is a small table with an identical five-stringed instrument on top of it.
Qin Yao followed Gong Yun and sat on the side of the main table with him, and the low table in front of him was filled with all kinds of pastries and fruits.
As soon as he was seated, a row of seven people walked in from outside the gate of the Green Pavilion.
"Erchen has seen the queen and the prince."
"And the future crown princess." Mama Rong reminded.
The seven people didn't look at the prince's side before, they only knew that there was an extra person around the prince, and they thought it was to support the scene, but they didn't expect it to be the future princess.
But they have never heard any news, and they have heard that the prince has any prospective princess? I was a little distracted under the side glance, where did this fairy-like woman come from, there was no such person among the ladies in the capital.
"Princess-to-be." A salute for the rules of the seven.
Qin Yao looked at Gong Yun, she didn't know if she needed to respond at this time.
"Brother Wang, this is the quasi-princess of this prince, the third daughter of Qin Hong, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, you will call her sister-in-law in the future." Gong Yun got up and introduced.
"Yao'er, this is the second brother Gong Shen. The third brother Gong Yuan. Fourth brother Gong Hanyue, fifth brother Gong Xiaoliang, sixth brother Gong Feng, seventh brother Gong Yuan, eighth brother Gong Xuan. ”
"Brother Wang is polite." Qin Yao responded with a salute, although he said that he wouldn't let her talk casually, but he couldn't be as unresponsive as a fool, right?
"Big brother? Where did you pick up such a beautiful sister-in-law, why don't I know? Gong Xuan didn't go back to his seat like the others, but leaned over and looked at Qin Yao strangely.
"I'm close to the eighth brother, so it's good for you to get acquainted with him." Gong Yun explained with a very doting look.
"Eighth brother? Haven't you had breakfast so early? Come, sister-in-law will give you a piece of pastry. Qin Yao picked up a piece of pastry and handed it over.
Gong Yun's expression suddenly became bad, and he gritted his teeth and warned with a smile on his face, "Didn't it make you talk less?" ”
"Why are you so fierce? What's wrong with my sister-in-law giving me a piece of cake? Before Qin Yao could react, Gong Xuan asked loudly.
The woman who has the eyes doesn't tell herself, and now she gives herself a piece of cake and reprimands? Is this the murderous sister-in-law or the murder of himself?
"Your sister-in-law has been in the countryside all the time, and it's easy to make trouble if you talk too much." Gong Yun explained helplessly.
"Ahh I remember, you are the third lady of Qin Hong, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, we played together when we were children, do you remember? That's the time you peeked out the back door. Gong Xuan said in surprise.
"You're the little brother? Great, I really didn't expect you to be the eighth brother? Qin Yao was also happy, she didn't have much memory in Shangshu Mansion, and the only thing she didn't learn was with him when she went out to play secretly.
"Do you think we're very close? Back then, your father's old bastard kicked you out of Shangshu Mansion, and I went to look for you, and scolded your father, he didn't even dare to come out. Gong Xuan still explained excitedly.
Qin Yao was embarrassed for a while, she couldn't say anything about her father being an old bastard in front of so many people! Look at Gong Yun still looks like he is fine.
"Don't talk about the past, come and sit down." Qin Yao pulled Gong Xuan to sit down beside him.
"Go back to your place." Gong Yun drank coldly, these two people don't know how much of a joke they have to make together.
"Did I still foul my sister-in-law when I sat together?" Gong Xuan sat down indifferently, not buying it at all.
"Xuan'er." A voice came from one of the doors, and even the queen quickly got up and got down from the platform and bowed to the ground.
"Your Majesty."
"I've seen my father."
"Should I say a daughter-in-law or a son-in-law?" Qin Yao asked Gong Yun in a low voice.
"Whatever." Gong Yun replied angrily, everyone knelt down and asked if it was still useful?
"Get up." Gong Yue helped the queen up, "I had a bad temperament a few days ago, and I worked hard for you." ”
"Your Majesty, don't you blame you?" The queen asked excitedly.
"Don't you know me? I was in the mood for a while, long gone. Gong Yue said and pulled the queen onto the stage and sat down in the middle.
"Prince, you also come here to be your father."
"The daughter-in-law gave her father a salute." Qin Yao knew that this ceremony had passed, but he couldn't just say anything about it.
Gong Yue saw that Qin Yao did have an impulse, but then suppressed it.
"This is our future crown princess?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, you look okay, right?" The queen asked softly.
"Yes, of course."
