Chapter Ninety-Six: Reaching a Partnership with Her
The Queen Mother saw the ambition and desire in Si Yunxian's eyes, this nasty look was very much like her back then.
She couldn't help but fall into the past, she was not the only concubine to be married to the Lin family, and she could also choose to marry her beloved as the princess, but her ambition for the queen's position made her the queen mother today, becoming the most noble woman in the world.
The Queen Mother understood why when she saw Si Yunxian for the first time, she had a strong disgust for her, not only was the identity of the princess of the small country not worthy of her Ling'er, but also saw her shadow in Si Yunxian.
The Queen Mother slowly opened her mouth and spit out four words in a cold tone, "Wishful thinking." ”
And Si Yunxian still had a confident smile on her face, "The Queen Mother doesn't have to reject Yun Xian so early, you can think again, but Yun Xian thinks you will eventually agree." ”
Because there's no better option than that.
His Royal Highness King Ling, whether he is a prince or an emperor, will marry her as his wife, and it is not too late for the Queen Mother to figure it out.
"Yun Fiber retires."
After that, Si Yunxian Shi Ran left.
Mama Zhang frowned at her departing back, and looked at the Queen Mother after retracting her gaze, worried in her heart.
Mama Zhang said tentatively, "Queen Mother,......"
The Queen Mother sat down on the table, her face was full of exhaustion, and she waved her hand to signal Mama Zhang not to say any more.
Mama Zhang had no choice but to bow down and retreat, closing the door of the inner hall tightly.
The Queen Mother sat in the inner hall for three hours, until the sun set and the cold night came, she moved her already stiff body, and called in a dumb voice: "Someone is coming." ”
Mama Zhang walked in, "What does the Queen Mother command?" ”
There was no candle flame in the hall, the entire hall was pitch black, half of the queen mother's body was hidden in the dark, and her tone did not fluctuate in the slightest, "There is a pair of jade ruyi in the treasury of the mourning family, or the first emperor rewarded it when the mourning family first entered the palace, and sent it to the Ling Wang's mansion." ”
Mama Zhang raised her eyes in confusion, but because of the dark light, she couldn't see the look on the queen mother's face, she really couldn't understand why the queen mother had to bow to Princess Yunxian, and she was stunned on the spot for a while.
The Queen Mother raised her voice and emphasized again, "Do as the mourning family tells you." ”
Mama Zhang saw that the Queen Mother had made up her mind, so she had to say yes, and went to the top floor of the wooden frame in the warehouse to rummage through the pair of jade Ruyi that had long been shelved.
Don't dare to delay, go straight to King Ling's mansion.
In the inner hall, the palace maids figured out that the queen mother was unhappy, let them come in lightly, and after lighting the wax with the lamp, they served tea and pastries, and did not dare to stay longer, and quietly retreated.
The Queen Mother sat on the pear blossom wooden chair and did not move her position, and the thousands of thoughts in her heart finally turned into a long sigh with mixed tastes.
She really put all her effort into Ling'er, even if Ling'er didn't understand her now, he would be able to understand her good intentions in three years and five years, or ten years later, when he sat on thousands of miles of rivers and mountains.
Lingwang Mansion
Jun Xiaoling came back with a gloomy face, just stepped into the door of the palace, and saw Si Yunxian standing quietly not far away, waiting for him, and the frost on his face gradually melted away when he saw her figure.
Jun Xiaoling walked a few steps quickly and hugged Si Yunxian into his arms, "It's cold, you are wearing so little, I feel really distressed to look at it, you are carefully caught in the cold." ”
Si Yunxian felt the warmth from his body, she obediently buried her face in his chest, and said softly, "The prince has not returned for a long time, I am very worried." ”
"How many times have I said it, you don't have to call me the prince according to the rules, just call me by you and me." Jun Xiaoling looked at her with love in his eyes, and his anger disappeared because of the little woman in his arms.
The maids and servants waiting on the side saw the love of the prince and the princess, and lowered their heads one by one, and they were all happy for the prince, the prince is a good person, and he will never be harsh on people.
And the Ling Wangfu lacks nothing, except for a hostess, and now the quasi-princess lives in the mansion, at first they were worried that it would be a bad match, but after a long time, they knew that the princess was as tolerant as the prince.
It's really a pair of talented women, a match made in heaven.
Seeing that there were still so many people present, Si Yunxian shyly got out of Jun Xiaoling's arms, his cheeks flushed, "Then have you had dinner?" ”
"Nope."
Where can Jun Xiaoling take a bite in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and he is almost full.
"I waited for you to come back and didn't eat, come here, pass the meal."
"Yes."
Jun Xiaoling took off the cloak on her body, put it on her thin shoulders, took her hand and walked towards the main hall, the cold wind blew through his warm whispers.
"In the future, I will come back on time to eat with you, and if there is really something that you can't get out of, you can eat yourself first without waiting for me."
Si Yun smiled delicately and joked mischievously, "It is said that the beauty is delicious, looking at the face of the prince, I can also eat a few more bites." ”
Jun Xiaoling took Si Yunxian's hand and sat down, raised his hand dotingly and scraped the tip of her nose, "Then you can drink more than a bowl of soup in a while to replenish your body and gain weight." ”
"It's all up to you."
It didn't take long for the delicate and delicious meals to be served on the table, most of the dishes were made according to the taste of Shen Biguo, and even the staple food was made of flax cakes, just because he was afraid that Si Yunxian would not be used to eating Jokhang food for a while, and he would inevitably feel homesick.
Jun Xiaoling prepared these very intimately, and he also followed her to change his taste.
Si Yunxian broke the flax cake into small pieces and gave it to Jun Xiaoling, and as soon as he dipped it in ghee, he heard a small servant running outside in a hurry, and spread the word, "There are people in Ci'an Palace!" ”
Si Yunxian raised her eyebrows, feeling surprised in her heart, she knew that the Queen Mother would agree to her conditions, but she didn't expect it to be so soon, she got up with Jun Xiao Ling quietly on the surface and greeted the people of Ci'an Palace.
The person who came was Mama Zhang, the old man next to the Queen Mother, who also grew up watching King Ling.
"The old slave sees His Royal Highness King Ling, Princess Yunxian."
Jun Xiaoling was very polite to her, bowing slightly, "Mama Zhang is here, is there anything wrong with the queen mother?" ”
Mama Zhang smiled kindly, and held the box in her hand to Princess Yunxian.
"The Queen Mother and Princess Yunxian met for the first time, and the Queen Mother gave a pair of jade Ruyi, which was originally given by the emperor when the Queen Mother first entered the palace, and they were all extraordinary."
"His Royal Highness King Ling left in a hurry, and the Queen Mother couldn't hand it over to Princess Yunxian in person, so she asked the old slave to send it on her behalf."
After Mama Zhang finished speaking, she gave Princess Yunxian a look.
Smart people only need a simple eye contact to understand what it really means.
Si Yunxian took the heavy box, a happy smile appeared on his face, and he bent his knees and said, "Thank you for the reward of the Empress Dowager, Yunxian is terrified." ”
Jun Xiaoling was very surprised, he thought that the queen mother didn't like Yun Fiber, it was almost on the surface, and Yun Xian was more or less clear, he was thinking about how to make the queen mother accept, but he didn't think that the queen mother would give such a precious object.
This means being willing to accept it.
Jun Xiaoling was very happy and asked Mama Zhang to convey it on her behalf, "After two days, this king will finish the affairs in his hands, and he will take Yun Xian into the palace to visit the queen mother." ”
"Yes."
Mama Zhang said again: "Ci'an Palace is deserted, the Queen Mother often feels lonely, if His Royal Highness King Ling and Princess Yunxian can often visit, the Queen Mother can also feel comfortable." ”
Jun Xiaoling naturally agreed and sent people out of the mansion.
The pent-up anger in his heart was reduced by half, and when he sat back at the table, he looked at the table full of food, and finally had an appetite.
He was relieved: "The queen mother has gone through two dynasties, sometimes her mind is inevitably heavier, you don't have to go to your heart, I give you Ruyi today, I must like you." ”
Si Yunxian smiled indifferently, and her tone was as gentle as water, "I am a princess of a small country and not a descendant, I know that my identity is not worthy of you, it is because of your love and pity, I can feel the warmth of home in a foreign country." ”
Jun Xiaoling felt even more distressed when he heard this, and said solemnly: "I will definitely treat you well in the future, raise your eyebrows, and live for the rest of your life." ”
When he was seriously injured in the wilderness four years ago, he would have died if it weren't for her presence, and that night she descended like a goddess in the bloody darkness and snatched him back from Hades.
He and she had known each other four years earlier, but he couldn't mention the past, it was a secret that could not be divulged, it was a past that had to be hidden deep underground and could not see the light.
