Chapter 127: Princess: Hongu's younger sister has an extraordinary background
Putuo Temple, located in the suburbs of the capital, only an hour and a half to arrive by horseback.
When the concubine went out of the princess's mansion, she didn't use a golden chariot, and she was still being punished, so she was not allowed to leave the mansion easily, so she only used a very ordinary black lacquered carriage, first out of the city, outside the city, the queen's Luan was waiting for her.
She didn't bring a few people, Ming Shu and Ji Xia, then Gu Guard, and Qin Shou, the concubine who came with her, plus Princess Xifu who was always dangling in front of her today, there were not many people.
The queen is also interested, and only the personal palace lady and a team of guards are left by her side, but Sima Xian did not come.
When Queen Sima Chuxue saw Concubine Yu coming, she smiled and waved to her, and nodded to the colt as a greeting.
How did Concubine Yu not want to ride with her, politely declined, and stayed in the slightly cramped carriage tent with Xifu, and the group took advantage of the cool morning to go to the direction of Putuo Temple.
Concubine Yu sat uncomfortably left and right, and there were no outsiders, so she simply dragged the soft pillow with red peony embroidery to lean on, her expression was a little sad, and the words that Qin Shou said to her yesterday were still echoing in her ears.
Qin Shou doesn't tell lies, he is also extremely arrogant, and he has that kind of strength, so he treats people and things, and he disdains to deceive the most, and what he says is still more credible.
Knowing that the queen mother and her brother saved their lives when the country was shattered, she felt relieved at the same time, but also slightly unsettled.
It's like a long-term goal, which you thought would be difficult, but suddenly someone tells you that what you want has been placed in the palm of your hand, so suddenly and unrealistically, and a kind of confusion that you don't know what to do in the future.
Since the candle night with Qin Shou's cave room, she opened her eyes and came back, originally she wanted to do everything possible to harm Qin Shou's good deeds, and then, she clearly knew the gap between herself and Qin Shou, it was a grasshopper shaking the tree, she thought, no matter how bad it is, she will protect her mother and brother when the Great Xia collapses.
But right now, Qin Shou told her that it didn't have to be like this.
She was in a mess in her heart, a little unclear, looking at Xifu who was eating dim sum happily on the other side, she actually asked in a ghostly way, "What if one day you lose your status as a princess?" ”
Xifu was holding a piece of cheese cake in her mouth, and before she could swallow it, she heard that Concubine Yu actually took the initiative to talk to her, and she looked up at her with joy, her eyes were shining, like crystal grapes.
Concubine Yu sneered, seeing that the corners of her mouth were still stained with pastry crumbs, she felt that she was really a demonic barrier, she couldn't figure out such a thing, could she expect Xifu, the unfavored princess, to answer?
How do you know that Xifu put down the snack seriously, and was about to wipe her mouth with her hand, under the slightly cold gaze of Concubine Yu, she turned her hand and took out a handkerchief from her sleeve, wiped the corners of her mouth, and then said with a small face with baby fat, "First of all, my sister will tell me first, why did she lose the identity of a princess?" ”
Concubine Yu looked at her and didn't say much.
Xifu frowned, and said almost to herself, "There are several situations where I will lose my status as a princess, or the queen mother will belittle me, but as long as I don't starve, freeze, or be displaced in the future, I can have a place to stand, a piece of tiles to cover the rain, and a pair of hands to live." ”
After she finished speaking, she cautiously glanced at Concubine Yu, and saw that she was really listening, so she mustered up the courage to continue, "This second kind is that the great Yin is not guaranteed. ”
As soon as the words fell, Concubine Yu's eyes froze, and they became sharp in an instant, and she told Xifu to shut up suddenly, not daring to say any more.
Concubine Yu pursed her lips and said in a cold voice, "Go on." ”
Xifu licked her lips, as if she wanted to lean over and pull the corner of Concubine Yu's clothes, but she didn't dare to look, "Sister, then don't be angry." ”
Concubine Yu nodded expressionlessly.
Xifu continued, "Sister, to be honest, the situation of the queen mother and the emperor's brother is not good, it should be said that at the beginning of the first emperor's establishment of the Great Yin, the division of Kyushu was disadvantaged, and the trend of the world today has long been hinted, and the vassal kings stand side by side, and they also hold heavy troops, and the ministers are strong and the emperor is weak, which is really a sign of troubled times, and the queen mother can survive until now, which is already very remarkable." ”
These words made Concubine Yu look at Xifu with admiration, she thought she was a little lady who didn't know anything, who knew that she grew up in the deep palace, and she actually had such knowledge.
She was suspicious in her heart, so she turned a cold face to Xifu, if she was really so transparent, how could she be so unsatisfactory in the palace, and she was still deliberately close to her everywhere?
Xifu was keenly aware of the changes in Concubine Yu, she looked at her with a pair of black eyes, thought about it, couldn't help but come to her side, rubbed it tentatively, and saw that she didn't dislike it, so she whispered, "Speaking of which, my sister may not believe it, I have been dreaming since I was a child, everything in the dream is different from Da Yin, people there don't use carriages to go out, but use another kind of car that runs very fast, and the place where they live is not the same, and there is no ...... of the Heavenly Family there."
Speaking of this, Xi Fu looked at Concubine Yu anxiously, afraid that she would not believe it.
Concubine Yu was surprised, but when she thought that she could go back through the years, there might naturally be opportunities for others, so she nodded quietly and let Xifu continue.
Xifu was affirmed, and her heart was relieved, "I dreamed that I was born with a heart disease, I couldn't run or jump, my sister took care of me since I was a child, my sister is very powerful, and my sister will earn a lot of silver as soon as she learns the homework taught by the master, but unfortunately my sister's silver is used to treat me, and my sister has always refused to marry for me, and has rejected many good men......"
Xifu couldn't say any more, she lowered her head and tugged at the sleeve of the concubine's coat tightly.
She wanted to be close to Concubine Yu so much, that face was exactly the same as in her memory, that is, her proud and willful temperament was also very similar, she didn't dare to tell the truth, for fear that if she said that Concubine Yu would not be a sister, she had to say that it was her own dream.
But she stubbornly decided that the current Da Yin must be a certain life between her and her sister, they are sisters of several lifetimes, they used to have heart disease, and they couldn't help their sisters, but became a drag, so now, she should be defending her sister in turn.
Concubine Yu's eyes flashed slightly, she didn't believe Xi Fu's words, but seeing her like that, she was so unsuccessful, and she blushed when she said that she was dreaming, so she slapped her on the head, lifted the curtain, and pointed to Qin Shou who was riding on a horse outside, "Who said that this palace is not married, isn't it a horse?" ”
Xi Fu looked up and saw that it collided with Qin Shou's sight when he heard the movement.
Seeing Qin Shou's appearance clearly, her face changed slightly, she reached over, pulled down the curtain suddenly, blocking Qin Shou's gaze, and then grabbed Concubine Yu's hand, and said after a long time, "Sister, he is the concubine, King Rong Qin Shou?" ”
Concubine Yu took in Xi Fu's expression, she suddenly became a little curious, she didn't know why Xi Fu saw Qin Shou react like this, "Yes, he is a concubine." ”
Hearing this, Xi Fu cried and mourned, she shook Concubine Yu's sleeve, "Sister, he is not a good person, he will definitely bully his sister in the future, sister and he should reconcile." ”
