The clear sky is free, and the undercurrent is surging at dusk Chapter 2 The princess is now her true face, and Lanling degrades Luoyang
Chapter 2 The princess is now true, and Lanling degrades Luoyang
Unconsciously, the days of coming to the palace have been more than half a month, she is not unaware of her situation, although the history is not very good, but she still knows a little about the general situation of the Northern Qi Dynasty, and the emperor of the Gao family is more absurd than the other, and one is shorter than the other.
"Hey" she sighed, what if they were all beautiful men, they couldn't withstand the cruelty of fate.
"Princess, why are you sighing again?" Xiao Tao couldn't help but ask.
She looked at Xiao Tao, in the half month she came here, except for Xiao Tao to arrange her daily life, she hardly saw anyone else, but the prince had come twice, just a simple greeting and left. Such days are as plain as water, and they can't withstand a single ripple. As if in a lifetime, Zheng Yue fell quietly. I don't know why, she likes the peach blossom forest in the backyard, she always stays quietly in the garden, doesn't say a word, and stays all afternoon. No one knew what was going on in her heart.
"Princess, if you don't speak like this, you'll get sick." Xiao Tao couldn't help but interject again.
"Life in the world, like a white horse passing through a gap, is beautiful in an instant, and it will eventually wither in a lifetime." Looking at the peach blossoms full of trees, she couldn't help but sigh, are the family okay, Yuwen, Liu Meng, are they okay, Zheng Yue began to miss them, and her tears turned into a pair.
"Princess, are you homesick?!" Little Peach whispered.
"Why are you called Little Peach? It's such a nice name, it's much better than this peach blossom," Zheng Yue ignored Xiao Tao's question.
"Actually, I don't know who I am, and I don't remember what my family is like, I only remember begging everywhere for a living, and it was the prince who saw that I was pitiful, took me in, and named me Little Peach. The prince also likes peach blossoms the most. ”
"Last year, in this door today, the peach blossoms on the human face were red. The face of the person is gone, and the peach blossoms are still smiling in the spring breeze. la [marshmallow]" She remembered the poem, and if so, would you miss me? She smiled self-deprecatingly.
Not far away, Gao Changgong listened to their conversation, and in her dream, she kept screaming if it must be someone she liked! A 17-year-old girl would have such feelings, I don't know what kind of past she has. This enigmatic woman, although she speaks a little strangely. But the eyebrows are like a crescent moon, the eyes are clear, there is no powder, but it is as bright as the autumn moon, and the cold face can only make people look from afar. It's very different from the first time I saw it.
As if sensing that someone was paying attention to her, she turned her head, and she called out, "Lord Wang".
"Little Peach, you go down first!"
"Are you thinking about the man named Ruo, if so, I can let you go" he said coldly, and for a moment his heart hurt badly.
"I was given to you by the emperor, wouldn't it be a bully to leave the king?! If you let me go, the world is so big, but there is no place for me. Zheng Yue was surprised by how he knew Ruo, but she still said it bitterly.
"I just want you to be happy." He didn't answer her, just said a soft word and turned away. So light that he didn't even hear it. But Zheng Yue heard it clearly, and her voice was as light as a warm feather slowly falling on her heart, melting instantly. A happy smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, watching his back fade away. It turns out that there are still people who care about her like this.
The next day, Chang Gong came to her room, "Tonight, the emperor will invite the ministers to a banquet, and I have to call all the family members." If you ,,,"
"Got it, I'll go, you don't have to worry" She knew what he was worried about.
Emperor Gaoyang of the Northern Qi Dynasty was obsessed with killing, and in recent years, even more, if he was not careful, his head would have to move. Everyone is afraid of saying the wrong thing and doing the wrong thing. And she is greedy for beauty and lust, and she is extravagant, and none of the wives and concubines among the ministers have a good end for her. And now she is no longer embarrassed, don't say that she is bullying the emperor when she sees the emperor, in case the emperor covets beauty, she will be in trouble.
"If you are embarrassed, the emperor will say that you are not feeling well." He sighed.
"Well, I know, you can call me then, I haven't seen the palace yet! Just in time to enjoy it. She said with a pretended lighthearted smile.
In the evening, the banquet was held as scheduled, Gao Changgong walked into Zheng Yue's room, at first glance, he was stunned, only to see Zheng Yue dressed in a plain and elegant coat, which was even more delicate and refined, especially the white veil on his face added to his mystery.
"You??? It's beautiful. He couldn't help but sigh in admiration when he was surprised.
Then he immediately added: "But you are like this, I, I, I am not at ease"
Zheng Yue smiled lightly and said, "It's okay, everything depends on me." Let's go! ”
Sitting in a carriage, I arrived at the gate of the palace in a short time. Sure enough, it was the Imperial Palace, and the protective walls were as solid as a rock and unattainable. The ninety-nine rows of inlaid copper nails on the main gate are dazzling.
"Let's go inside!" Chang Gong's voice shattered her thinking.
"Okay."
The buildings in the palace are even more extraordinary, with pavilions and pavilions, rockeries and waters, which can be seen everywhere. But Zheng Yue didn't have time to enjoy the scenery now, and she was worried about whether her words would succeed. Maybe you don't have a chance to live.
"What's wrong? I'm here, don't worry! He could see her concern.
"Don't worry, we'll be fine!" She smiled.
"The emperor's banquet will be held in the main hall, just in front." Chang Gong said.
As soon as he turned the corner, he saw a group of singing and dancing, and Chang Gong took him to his seat. As a result, many ministers' compliments flocked to him. Behind the compliment, everyone's eyes all looked at Princess Lanling, the "legendary" princess. These ministers were more amazed by her beauty, maybe Zheng Yue didn't realize it at all.
"The emperor has arrived!" With a scream. The main hall was suddenly silent.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
"All the ministers are flat!"
"Do you have any fun today?! Hahaha....", again asked in the same way.
"Back to the emperor, didn't you give King Lanling a concubine last time?! Our ministers have never seen it, so it is better to take this opportunity to let everyone see the beauty of Princess Lanling. A minister glanced at King Lanling with a treacherous smile and said.
"Great idea!" Gao Yang clapped his hands.
"King Lanling, I have rewarded you with your concubine! Why don't you introduce it to everyone! Gao Yang smiled meaningfully.
Sure enough, they are all smiling tigers, hiding knives in their smiles. Zheng Yue suddenly felt very sympathetic to King Lanling, in this cannibalistic society, only he stood proudly like an iceberg snow lotus in this incompatible society.
"Back to the emperor, the slave's name is Zheng Yue, and she is the concubine of King Lanling!" Zheng Yue suddenly walked out of the table and replied without being humble or arrogant.
All eyes were on her. Including Emperor Gao Yang, maybe he would never have thought of the woman in front of him, her eyes were inspiring, her white clothes were beautiful, and she was elegant and dignified. The veil of concealment makes people think about it.
Gao Yang's evil eyes stared at Zheng Yue, and said, "Come, come to me, come to Xi and see!" ”
"Back to the emperor, if the emperor wants to see it, the slave maid will unveil it now for everyone to see." As he spoke, he took off his veil.
The next moment, everyone in the audience was shocked. What is the face under the veil: the thick lips are more like "fat intestines" because they are painted with vermilion. The thick ink rouge made her vulgar and bloated, and even worse, a big black mole on the right side of her face made people want to vomit. Lian Changgong was also taken aback.
"Back to the emperor, the slave knows that she has scared the emperor, please forgive the emperor!"
Before everyone could react, Zheng Yue's voice brought everyone back to reality! Gao Yang was stunned for a moment and then became angry, "Come on, since she is so ugly, I cut off her head, I don't want to see her again!" ”
Zheng Yue suddenly panicked, it turned out that the legendary Gaoyang beast might as well be true.
"Please forgive the emperor, she is the concubine of King Lanling, and the minister is willing to substitute for her." Chang Gong came out to kowtow and never got up.
Zheng Yue looked at Chang Gong and was suddenly moved, it turned out that he could die for her.
"Go back to the emperor and beg the emperor to cure the sins of King Lanling! The slave doesn't want to die yet! Zheng Yue screamed in surprise.
"Oh? Tell me what is the sin of King Lanling? Zheng Yue's words aroused Gao Yang's interest, after all, he would not let King Lanling have a good time, so it was better to borrow this woman's hand.
"Back to the emperor," Zheng Yue calmed down, "The slave maid is the Lanling concubine personally instructed by the emperor, but he is unwilling, this is against the holy decree and should be beheaded." If the emperor gives death to slaves and maids, it will not hinder the big thing, and this will not be in line with the will of King Lanling. Having said that, King Lanling is a relative of the emperor, and he hopes that the emperor can surround his life, but he implores the emperor to remove the king of Lanling and bring his relatives back to his hometown in Luoyang, which is also the result of the emperor's leniency to the people. ”
"Hahahaha..... that's good! King Lanling, what do you think? ”
"Emperor Xie!"
"Hahahaha..."
This banquet was spent in fear in everyone's hearts.
