Chapter 161: It's You, Right?
A young girl, with a graceful figure, Tingting curls every step is amorous.
Empress Dowager Chen is getting older, and she can see more clearly in the distance, even if there is still some distance, Xie Wan's flawless snow muscles that are white in the sun, she can really see it.
She was a beauty when she was young, and the beauties she had seen in the palace were even more ordinary, but the moment she saw Xie Wan, she was amazed, and even a little dumbfounded.
Once upon a time, I heard that the beauty fell into the city, and the Empress Dowager Chen was a little scoffing, how beautiful can a beauty be? I've seen a lot, and that's it.
But now, she really feels what is called a beauty in the city, it turns out that there are really women in this world who can be so beautiful that they can look at the city and then the country.
The grandmother on the side whispered: "That is the girl Xie mentioned by the slave maid." ”
Empress Dowager Chen came back to her senses when she heard this, and subconsciously looked at Li Yu.
After all, after seeing such a beauty, what other woman can get into the eye?
However, what was a little surprising was that Li Yu was looking at Xie Wan, but instead of seeing the joy and softness of the person he liked, his eyes frowned.
In fact, Empress Dowager Chen doesn't like too beautiful women, although she was a beauty when she was young, her appearance was slightly inferior to Yang Yichun, she and Yang Yichun faced the saint at the same time, and finally the marriage fell on her head.
She was full of joy to marry the first emperor, and when she lifted the hijab, she saw the disappointed look of the first emperor, and realized that the first emperor did not like her.
She tried to put the matter down, after all, she was the one who won in the end, wasn't she?
What makes her feel like a fish in her throat is that the concubines of the first emperor later more or less have the shadow of Yang Yichun.
Since then, Empress Dowager Chen has had a lot of dislikes for beautiful women.
Thinking about it, this is also a matter of youth, at this age, Empress Dowager Chen's prejudice against beautiful women is much less, firstly, it is the precipitation of the years, there are too many beauties I have seen, no matter how beautiful people are, no one can shake her status, and it has nothing to do with her.
Second, because when you reach the age of being a grandmother, you prefer a little person carved in pink and jade, and to give birth to a good-looking one, the mother's appearance is naturally important.
Therefore, when Empress Dowager Chen saw Xie Wan, she mostly had an appreciative attitude.
Moreover, if it is an ordinary beauty, Empress Dowager Chen may secretly think about how it compares with when she was young, but it has not reached the point of Xie Wan, which makes people unable to have the slightest idea of comparison.
What's more, although Xie Wan is beautiful, she does not have the slightest frivolity, and even because of the cultivation of the two lives, she still has a sense of fairy spirit, even if she has prejudices and prejudices, she has to admit her beauty.
The stunned people are not only Empress Dowager Chen, but also Queen Ma.
I've always heard how Xie Wan is beautiful, but now that she has seen the real person, she knows that all the descriptions of Xie Wan's beauty seem scarce and bland.
No wonder Yushan and her mother, who are not a threat to them with such a look regardless of their desperate appearance? !
Queen Ma's heart gave birth to a feeling of fear and happiness for the first time.
What makes her happy is that Xie Wan has entered Li Yu's eyes and has secretly communicated with Li Yu, and what makes her afraid is that what will happen if Xie Wan enters the harem?
Your Majesty today is not a former emperor who has worked hard to govern the country.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but glance at Li Yu again, but Li Yu had already withdrawn her gaze, lowered her eyes and moved the jade bead bracelet in her hand, unable to see her expression.
Xie Wan stayed a few feet away, and Zhiqing stepped forward to report.
She didn't glance at Li Yu, it was strange to say, when the two were alone, she dared to put her hands on him, kiss and hug, but in such a scene, she could clearly feel the gap and distance between him and her.
He is high up, holding the power of life and death, even if he simply sits there, he is coercive and scattered, and his aura is fully open, like a god.
And she waited here to be summoned, and she couldn't even look directly at the person sitting with him without permission.
Zhiqing stepped forward and saluted in turn, and then said to Queen Ma: "Back to Niangniang, Miss Xie is here." ”
"Bring someone here."
Queen Ma turned her head and said to the eldest princess with a smile: "Today, the palace is pestering the queen mother to come together, except for not going out of the palace for a long time to have a good time, just to meet Miss Xie." Bengong thought that Miss Xie would definitely be invited to the list on such an occasion, but he didn't expect ......"
This clearly means that Xie Wan's identity is not enough and she is not worthy of such a banquet.
The eldest princess glanced at Li Yu with her afterglow, and said with a smile: "What the queen said is very true, she should naturally be there for such a banquet, not to mention that she is the concubine of the Marquis of Yongyu, and now she is still in charge of the Hou Mansion, that is, the friendship between the palace and her, no one can miss her." ”
"The Queen doesn't know yet, does she? The palace once invited her to stay in the princess's mansion for a few days, and she was considered a New Year's friend! ”
Queen Ma really doesn't know about this.
Her face didn't move: "What ...... then?"
The eldest princess watched Xie Wan walk in, raised her voice and said, "The relationship between this palace and Wanwan, inviting her to the banquet, where is the use of deliberately making the next post?" Bengong sent someone to talk to her, and she thought that she was going to chant poetry again like last time, so she replied that she couldn't join in the fun. ”
"Really?" Queen Ma smiled: "It's that the palace misunderstood, and specially sent someone to pick her up." ”
A group of noble ladies were sitting not far away, Mrs. Chu looked at this scene, and saw Li Yu sitting there lightly, moving the jade bead bracelet with an expressionless face, and couldn't help frowning slightly.
Xie Wan had already arrived in front of her, and the eldest princess immediately got up and took her hand warmly: "Let you come, you want to be pure, isn't this still coming?" ”
Xie Wan had already heard the previous words, and now that the eldest princess made a face for her, she naturally wouldn't fail to continue, and hurriedly said, "It's the courtiers who are lazy." ”
"I'll settle accounts with you later." The eldest princess snorted affectionately, and turned to introduce her: "I've met the Queen Mother and the Queen first." ”
Xie Wan hurriedly bent her knees and saluted respectfully: "Courtier Xie Wan, I have seen the Queen Mother, I have seen the Queen Mother." ”
Empress Dowager Chen saw that her etiquette was in order, and her voice was very good, and she didn't look frivolous at all, so she had a good impression and said, "No courtesy." ”
Xie Wan bent her knees again: "Empress Dowager Xie." ”
Queen Ma looked at her and said with a smile: "I heard that you are a beauty before, but now that I have seen a real person, I know what it is better to see than to hear." Now the first beauty in the capital, it must be you, right? ”
The so-called first beauty in the capital is not only based on her appearance and figure, but also her family background.
The first beauty before was Ma Yushan, and now Queen Ma said this in front of everyone, if she answered, she would be ashamed to speak, and she didn't know how thick the sky was. But if you shouldn't, if you say anything that is not as good as Ma Yushan or someone else, you are pretending, after all, her appearance is here, and everyone can see it.
