Chapter 9: Ambivalence
"It turns out that this poem has such a beautiful and touching poignant love story, and this is the first time I have heard of it." After hearing this, the emperor said with a look of regret.
The emperor turned his head again and instructed the celebrant to the inner eunuch: "Write down the name and keep it, the next one!" ”
But I saw that the queen seemed to be thinking about something, and there was no more words.
The queen turned her head to the emperor and smiled: "The palace concubines selected today are all stunning, both proficient in poetry and books, and virtuous and docile, which really adds to the peace in the palace." The Emperor smiled but did not answer.
I was relieved that from now on, Dolgon, the man sitting on the high ground above, would be the husband I would rely on for life in this strange and familiar world?! I bowed and bowed, silently arranging. Seeing Fan Yiren smiling at me, I had to smile back.
I was confused, I didn't know how to deal with this expected selection, I was worried and full of hope for my future, and I didn't bother to bother with anything else.
When this class of show girls saw the completion of driving, according to the pre-guided internal supervisor, whether they were selected or not, they all kowtowed and thanked them and then went out with the class.
Only when I got out of the Yunyi Palace, I heard a "bang" behind me, and turned around to see that it was Li Miaoqing, the sister of Jiangsu Weaver Li Changhe, who was in the same column just now, and I saw that her face was pale, her forehead was full of cold sweat, and she had fainted. Presumably, it was the failure to "retain" that caused excessive sadness and phlegm.
I sighed and said, "I couldn't keep what I wanted to keep, but I left it behind my course." While speaking, Li Miaoqing was helped away by the inner prison maid who served in front of the palace gate.
Fan Yiren helped my Fleur, whose hair was about to slip off, and whispered: "Why should my sister sigh, it is a blessing to be able to enter the palace, how many people want to do it." Besides, you and I can enter the palace together, and we can take care of each other more. The inner prison who proclaimed the decree has gone, and Uncle Hong must be happy. ”
I twisted my fingers around the plum blossoms hanging on my skirt, and I was silent. After a while, he said in a low voice: "Sister Yiren, I really didn't mean it, and I didn't want to, I just had a little bit of a conflict." ”
She tugged at my sleeve and said softly, "I understand." As I said earlier, you can't avoid it on your own. She paused, retracted her smile and said, "What's more, with your and my qualifications, do you really want to commit yourself to those idle people?" ”
Fan Yiren was comforting me, and an elderly palace maid came up with a wind lantern to lure us out of the palace. The palace maid had a smile on her face, and blessed us with a blessing and said, "Congratulations to the two little masters for choosing the palace concubines." Fan Yiren and I smiled reservedly, took the silver to reward her, and slowly walked out of the Donghua Gate with our hands in hand.
There were only a few carriages waiting outside the Donghua Gate, and the glass wind lamps hanging in front of the carriage swayed in the wind, as if they couldn't help themselves. Waiting in the carriage were my close maids Qiushui and Ah Zhu, who saw us coming from a distance, and hurriedly jumped out of the carriage with their cloaks to greet us. Ah Zhu held my arm and said softly, "Miss is tired." Qiushui put the brocade cloak on me and tied it.
