CHAPTER XXXV
Courteous answer.
Xu Jingwan pursed her lips dissatisfiedly, "Then take it and take a look." ”
Hua Zhao was slightly stunned, and immediately put the bracelet on with the help of Luo Huaiyue.
The golden chain is small and delicate, decorated with rubies the size of rice grains, and the junction of the chain and the gemstone is wound with gold wire to form a gorgeous tulip flower about the size of a ruby, and a ruby is also inlaid in the middle, which shines in the sun.
"Blossoms?"
Someone in the banquet exclaimed, Hua Zhao was at a loss, Liang Yinwan had already answered: "Legend has it that this tulip blossom is made by a famous jewelry master in Huizhou for a year, and the rubies on it are all superb. ”
What?
Hua Zhao still didn't know what was going on with this chain, but when she heard the heroine Liang Yinwan sigh, she immediately knew that this thing was not a vulgar thing, and hurriedly wanted to take off the bracelet, but was stopped by Luo Huaiyue.
"This is not just a return gift from His Royal Highness, but also the heart of our mother." Luo Huaiyue said with a smile.
In exchange, Hua Zhao was even more frightened, "Let's take it off, how can I afford such a valuable thing." ”
"This palace says you can stand it, and you can stand it."
The lazy voice suddenly sounded, and everyone turned their eyes and got up to salute, "I've seen Concubine Luo!" ”
Hua Zhao was still a little confused when he saluted together.
She naturally knows some of the characters in the novel, but she is at a loss for the characters that are not mentioned in the novel.
"You're Hanaaki, aren't you?"
Seeing that the woman in her twenties walked up to Hua Zhao surrounded by a group of maids, stretched out a pair of delicate and soft hands to hold Hua Zhao, and spoke in a soft tone.
Hua Zhao nodded again and again, "The courtier is none other than Hua Zhao." ”
"When this palace looks at you, he feels happy, hurry up."
Concubine Luo helped Hua Zhao get up, and when she looked up and saw the woman in front of her, Hua Zhao was crazy, she was really a big beauty.
The skin is delicate and silky, and the eyes are shining when they turn slightly, mainly the facial features and appearance, looking at you quietly like a cold moon, and smiling like a flower god coming to the world.
Dressed in a light yellow skirt inside, a scarlet gown on the outside, the edge of the dress was inlaid with pearls, and the five-tailed koi was embroidered with gold thread.
"Miss Hua, is she dumbfounded looking at her mother?"
Xu Jingwan didn't know when she got closer, and at the moment she was looking at Hua Zhao with a smile in her eyes.
Hua Zhao pursed her lips and smiled, thought for a while, and said: "Once the courtiers heard a poem, it used to be a joke, but today when I saw Concubine Luo, I knew that what I said was true." ”
"Oh?" Concubine Luo's lips opened slightly.
Hua Zhao stared at Concubine Luo and said earnestly: "There are beautiful women in the north, peerless and independent. One look at the city, and then look at the country. Rather than know the city and the country? It's hard to get a beautiful woman! ”
Hearing this, Concubine Luo looked slightly stunned, and the smile on the corner of her lips slowly faded, showing a little melancholy.
At the gate of the palace, the bright yellow figure paused, not daring to take another step.
Luo Huaiqing's eyes were quick, and he immediately saluted, "Wechen has seen Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty!" ”
With him starting, everyone found out where the emperor was, and they saluted again.
The emperor's long eyelashes drooped, covering the complex emotions in his eyes, and only after a long time did he sigh, "A good sentence for the city and the country, beauty is rare." ”
There was deep remorse in the tone.
Everyone lowered their heads deeper, and Hua Zhao acted in conformity, but Concubine Luo, who was a beautiful woman who was very good-looking before meeting, suddenly straightened her waist.
"Your Majesty, as the king of a country, how can you ignore your family and country because of your appearance."
Hua Zhao finally realized that something was wrong, and a layer of cold sweat broke out all over his body.
She felt this poem, if it fell in the ears of someone who cares, it would be a big storm, but I was afraid that it would cause her and Concubine Luo to end badly.
"The courtiers lost their words, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive her sins."
Not as tough as Concubine Luo, Hua Zhao pressed her waist even lower, and respectfully asked for guilt.
"It's okay, but it's improvised, you don't need to go online, and I don't think you will do anything about it."
The emperor looked at Concubine Luo with a deep apology in his eyes.
Concubine Luo avoided the emperor's gaze and helped Hua Zhao up, "I wonder if Miss Hua would like to sit with the palace today?" ”
"It's an honor."
Hua Zhao didn't dare to refuse, and there was no need to refuse.
The emperor set his eyes on Hua Zhao's wrist, and when he saw the Tu Hua blooming, he looked at Concubine Luo with a more complicated expression.
That was before the Luo family destroyed the door, and Mrs. Luo handed it over to Concubine Luo.
has always been loved by Concubine Luo as a treasure, but today it appeared on this young woman, thinking of Concubine Luo and his life over the years, the emperor immediately spoke, "Such a good poem should be a big prize!" ”
Immediately, a eunuch brought stacks of jewelry and placed them in front of Hua Zhao.
Hua Zhao was stunned, and hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty misunderstood, this is just a poem that the courtiers have seen, not the courtiers. ”
"It is also a great achievement to introduce such exquisite poems, since I have rewarded you, I will accept it."
The emperor was unceremonious, and Hua Zhao didn't shirk anything.
"Everybody, get up." The Emperor spoke as he walked to the throne.
Everyone got up and sat down, and when Hua Zhao followed Concubine Luo to sit next to Xu Jingwan, she was still a little unable to come back to her senses.
Keeping her eyes on where she had been sitting, it was empty, and there was nothing left.
"Speaking of which, the courtiers still owe Miss Hua a thank you."
Liang Yinwan got up, raised a glass to Hua Zhao with a wine cup, her movements were smooth, and her posture was dignified and noble.
Hua Zhao then got up and raised his glass, "Miss Liang doesn't need to be polite. ”
The two looked at each other and smiled, raising their glasses and drinking them all.
Hua Zhao has regained the feeling of the heroine in the novel, her personality is gentle and generous, and her handling of things is admirable.
"Speaking of which, I don't know how Miss Hua knew that the wine cup was poisonous in the first place." Liang Yinwan put down the wine cup and asked with a smile.
This question is not too much, but it is a question that makes Hua Zhao anxious.
How should she answer now, could it be that she gave the poison?
After thinking about it, Hua Zhao spoke, "I can't hide it, in fact, I will point out the means of divination." ”
"Oh?" The Emperor looked sideways.
Hua Zhao chuckled, and his eyes were directed at Luo Huaiqing, as well as the third prince Xu Zexuan, "The courtiers have a hunch, and today's Lord Zuo Xiang and His Royal Highness the Third Prince are also poisoned in the wine cup." ”
As soon as she arrived here today, she found a lot of things wrong, such as today's banquet called the birthday banquet of the sixth princess, which is actually a famous scene in the novel.
The poisoning of Luo Huaiqing and the third prince Xu Zexuan was also the last straw that overwhelmed the second prince and the main reason why the emperor gave the second prince death.
But in fact, this time it was Liang Yinwan who was poisoned by her father's right minister, and it was because of this that Liang Yinwan later learned about the incident and took a little more care of Xu Zexuan and Luo Huaiqing.
After she reacted back, she tried to find opportunities to remind Luo Huaiqing and Xu Zexuan several times, but they were completely broken because of the rule of separating men and women.
