, It was so intimate that it made people cry.
If she was really ugly, and she didn't live longer, I'm afraid that just by Yan Jinqiu's actions, she would have secretly paid his love and unswerving affection.
Entering the gate of the palace, Yan Jinqiu put down Hua Xiwan, took the red silk from Xi Niang's hand, held one end tightly and put the other in Hua Xiwan's hand, and then carefully led Hua Xiwan to go inside. .
Passing through one door after another, turning one corridor after another, listening to the auspicious words, Hua Xiwan's expression became more and more indifferent under the hijab, and when she walked to the main hall to pray to the heaven and earth, her calm expression had recovered. .
After the messenger sent by the emperor had finished reciting the decree of reward, the worship of heaven and earth really began. One bows to heaven and earth, three bows. Two bow to parents, three bow. Husband and wife bow to each other and bow three times.
After the Quanfu woman invited by the county prince's mansion was helped to rest in the new room, the rest of the unrelated people retreated, leaving only the four personal maids beside Hua Xiwan to accompany her.
She found a comfortable position and leaned against the head of the bed. Hua Xiwan knew that someone must be guarding the door, so she didn't speak, she just covered the corner of her mouth and yawned and closed her eyes, waiting for the bridegroom who was still drinking outside to come. Remove the hood.
Yan Jinqiu's popularity was good on weekdays, but he was let go after being drunk. The younger generation who wanted to come to the bridal chamber remembered the rumors outside, fearing that he would be embarrassed, so they didn't quarrel to see the bride, and finally accompany him. Only Xi Niang and a few elders with both children and children were the only ones who went to the new house.
He pushed open the hidden door of the new room, and saw Fahrenheit sitting dignifiedly on the bed, a very graceful woman in appearance. The four beautiful escort girls stood two on the left and right, and when they saw him come in, Qi Qi slowly and gracefully moved towards him, showing that the Hou Fu had trained them well.
Although she looks ordinary but dares to choose four beautiful maids to serve by her side, this Fahrenheit has a good attitude.
"King Xian, please take off your hijab." Seeing that Prince Xian was staring at the bride, Xi Niang smiled and handed the happy scale with both hands.
Taking the scale, Yan Jinqiu walked to Hua Xiwan's side, paused for a moment with his outstretched hand, and then quickly lifted the hijab without hesitation.
Dazzling
Yan Jinqiu felt that the movement of lifting the hijab was too fast, so that his eyes were a little flowery.
The room was dead silent, and the eunuch Mu Tong, who was following behind Yan Jinqiu, saw that no one in the room made a sound, and was so frightened that he didn't dare to come out, and he didn't dare to look in the direction of the princess. Princess Princess was able to terrify the people in the room like this, I don't know what kind of honor she looks like.
After a long while, Xi Niang found her voice, took the happy scale in Yan Jinqiu's hand with a smile, and said with a trembling voice: "Congratulations to the prince of the county, the prince of the county of Hexi has got this sweet wife. I wish the prince of the county. The princess of the county will grow old together, and the children and grandchildren will be full of children." She has been the bride of many wealthy families, but she has never seen such a symbol of a bride. It looks like the fairy in the painting. The milfs' hearts couldn't help but jump a few more times.
Hearing that Xi Niang's tone was not right, Mu Tong secretly glanced at the prince of the county standing in front of him, but he could only see the smiling side of the prince's face, so he couldn't guess whether he was happy or disappointed. So Mu Tong had to hang his head down. This action happened to see the red embroidered shoes on the feet of Princess Princess. The embroidered shoes were embroidered with dragon and phoenix beads. The beads were embedded with high-quality pearls. Very nice.
While the room was still silent, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door. Yan Jinqiu glanced at the hidden door, took a step to the left without a trace, and blocked Hua Xiwan behind him.
"Today is the big day for the King of Xian County. It would be boring if Ben Gong didn't come to see the excitement." Princess Duanhe was wearing a luxurious embroidered phoenix dress. Before anyone entered the door, a low voice of laughter came in. . When she entered the door with a few maids, she glanced at the bed, only to see the bride's red skirt, she covered the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled, "You are reluctant to let us see?"
Then she stretched out her hand to hold Princess Minhui who came in with her, and Princess Duanhe smiled and patted Princess Minhui's hand: "Look at the appearance of Prince Xian. Just as he entered the door, he began to feel distressed for the bride."
Princess Minhui is a girl who has not left the cabinet. Although Princess Duanhe was dragged here to join in the fun, she was embarrassed to open her mouth on this occasion.
"Sister Huang is joking," Yan Jinqiu said with a light smile to Duan and the princess, "My wife has a thin face, so I'm embarrassed to see many people."
Princess Duanhe smiled, but didn't make any move that had to see the appearance of the bride. Instead, she took a step back thoughtfully and stood in the corner where Hua Xiwan could not be seen: "In that case, I won't bother you. Rest." Her tone was calm, as if she was really just doing her cousin's duty to take a look, and had no other thoughts.
In this case, she naturally saw Yan Jinqiu's unwillingness to let the bride see people, so she knew the rumors outside, and after saying a few more words, she took Princess Minhui out of the wedding room. When she left the main courtyard, there was no one around, the smile on her face gradually faded.
Indifferently glanced at the dazed Princess Minhui beside him, Princess Duanhe's tone was a little light: "Now that the Duke of Xian has a concubine, it's time for your marriage."
The Princess of Minhui, Chao Duan and the princess reluctantly smiled and said, "I see."
Duan and the princess nodded and said nothing more. Recalling the actions of King Xianjun just now, there is satisfaction in his eyes.
Princess Duanhe came and went, and Hua Xiwan could vaguely guess that Princess Duanhe didn't want Yan Jinqiu to marry a desirable princess. She is the only daughter of today's sage, and her status is precious. Naturally, she thinks that the next emperor will be her brother, not a cousin.
This Princess Duanhe has a clever mind, and deliberately brought an unmarried county master here. Although she didn't say anything, she just made people feel that the county master had something with the county king, or This county owner has so much interest in Yan Jinqiu.
Before the two couples began to develop their relationship, someone ties a knot between the two of them. Can the relationship get better in the future? Not to mention, if her bride has an inferiority complex because of her ugly appearance, with the rumored beautiful and virtuous Princess Minhui as a reference, wouldn't she feel even more inferior in the future
However, there is nothing wrong with this move with the princess. After all, having a bridal chamber is a joy for men and women of the same generation. If she thinks too much, she is not broad-minded enough. Could it be that she can blame others
The royals are the royals, and they can throw a few hidden weapons in this conversation, which is really a good way to kill people without blood. Hua Xiwan raised her eyebrows slowly, smiled softly at Yan Jinqiu Wan, and said in a low voice, "I made the prince laugh."
Mu Tong, who stood with his head bowed to the side, thought to himself, Princess Princess's voice is really nice, soft and gentle without making people feel lack of energy, and it is sweet to the heart when people listen to it. It can be seen that God is still fair, even if he did not give the princess a good appearance, he also gave the princess a voice like nature.
Seeing this, Xi Niang and a few royal ladies said they were leaving and went to the front hall to join in the fun.
"I would like to thank the elders for helping Zhang Luo today, and I can't be more grateful in my younger life." Yan Jinqiu bowed to the female relatives of the royal family.
"King Xian is being polite, it's normal for a newly married woman to be thin-skinned. As a husband, you have to treat people as much as you want." The female relatives at the scene heard what the King Xian said and hoped that they would not talk about what happened today. , They can accompany Prince Xian to the wedding room today, because they are relatively close to Prince Xian's mansion, so naturally they won't be too busy, so the old concubine in the lead said, "We old ladies don't bother you anymore, let's rest early."
After all the people in the wedding room had left, Yan Jinqiu took the two glasses of wine on the table with his own hands, walked to Hua Xiwan and sat down with a smile: "Xiwan, today is your big day for me, this glass of wine can Can't stop drinking."
The soft and white fingers crossed the back of his hand inadvertently, and then took the wine glass from his hand. The beautiful hand even made the red jade wine bottle look extremely beautiful.
Under the candlelight, Yan Jinqiu, who was used to seeing all kinds of beauties, was amazed by those delicate eyebrows and eyes. Suddenly, he had some doubts, how could there really be such beauties in the world
Arms intertwined, he drank the wine in the cup with the other's hand, Yan Jinqiu took the empty wine bottle, and said to the wooden passage that stood with his head bowed: "Remove the wine table and replace it with a table of digestible meals. ."
"Yes," Mu Tong bowed and took the two empty wine bottles in Yan Jinqiu's hands, dazzlingly saw Princess Princess's wrist showing her sleeves, and sighed in his heart: This skin is as white as snow, but unfortunately she is not a beauty.
Bai Xia and the other four saw that the people beside the prince were preparing meals. After exchanging glances, they retreated to the door and guarded.
"Your Highness," Hua Xiwan said, pointing to her phoenix crown when the servants in the room had all retreated, "Can you help my concubine take this off? It's too heavy, and my concubine's neck was crushed to the point of pain."
The phoenix crown is made of pure gold, and it is made of the style of flying phoenix with pearls. Although the workmanship is very delicate, it still can't stand it. This is a heavy gold crown.
"Are you taking the hairpin here?" Yan Jinqiu pulled out the hairpin that tied the crown, gently took off the sinking phoenix crown and put it aside, and then helped Hua Xiwan to squeeze her neck in a very natural way, helping her relax her muscles and bones. , "It's really heavy."
Because he took off the phoenix crown and hairpin, the black hair was scattered around his waist. Yan Jinqiu touched the soft hair with the back of his hand, and the delicate touch made him feel it a few more times. He felt that the best in the house No silk satin can compare to this Qingdai.
Although the two are now husband and wife, they are strangers meeting for the first time. Seeing Hua Xiwan sitting quietly beside him, Yan Jinqiu said, "We don't have to be too polite in the future when we get along with each other. You can just call me Jinqiu."
Hua Xiwan raised her head and looked at the people around her, but at the age of about 20 years old, her appearance was indeed outstanding, the corners of her eyes were slightly raised, and it was a little tinged with the smell of peach blossoms, but her words and deeds revealed a kind of thoughtful atmosphere. She smiled and said: "The big hill is called the mountain, and the mountain is also called the mausoleum. It's really good to have the name of the prince."
The eyes of the two met in the air, and then they all smiled, Yan Jinqiu said: "The name is just a code name."
"Your Highness is right," Hua Xiwan smiled and stopped talking about it. Instead, she lowered her head to retrieve the bracelets on her wrist and the jade sachet around her waist. Not a small size.
"Prince Prince, Princess Princess, the meal is ready," Mu Tong said from the door, then paused for a while before leading someone to bring the prepared meal in.
"It's already night. Eating other things will cause food accumulation. You didn't eat anything today, so use these pads to support your stomach," Yan Jinqiu got up and took Hua Xiwan's hand, walked to the table and sat down.
"Your Majesty, the Princess, because the people in the dining room don't know the taste of the Princess, so we made two flavors for each," Mu Tong said after introducing the importance of several food flavors, "Prince, what do you have? Whatever you like to eat, even if you tell the little ones, the little ones will let the people below do it properly.”
Hua Xiwan twitched the corners of her mouth and turned to Yan Jinqiu: "The people around Jinqiu are very thoughtful." This sounded like she was showing loyalty to her, but in fact she was telling her that this housekeeper is the housekeeper. Is it him
Without Yan Jinqiu's permission, this eunuch named Mu Tong didn't have the guts to say this. It seems that Yan Jinqiu hinted at it before
"If anyone in the mansion doesn't listen to you in the future, he will just beat him out with a stick." Yan Jinqiu brought the fragrant meat porridge in front of Hua Xiwan, and said indifferently, "Now the county king's mansion has your daughter. Master, it can finally be called a home."
Hua Xiwan took the porridge and smiled, noncommittal.
Mu Tong, who was next to him, was a little surprised. What did the prince mean by changing his previous mind? He stole a glance, only to feel that his feet were soft, he didn't come up in one breath, and almost fell to the ground.
The legendary salt-free girl who dared not go out because of her scary appearance, who is this peerless beauty
Mu Tong felt that his whole person was not very good, because he felt that he was even more afraid to look at the princess, because of his appearance, it was too... recruited.
He can only think of four words in his mind at the moment, that is, the beauty and the disaster.
Shane
In ancient times, there was an article "Luo Shen Fu" to write about the beauty of Luo Shen, but Yan Jinqiu had always been a little disapproving of this. Where can there really be such a woman in the world? If there is such a woman, how many men would go crazy
However, after having eaten the meal last night and having spent a night in their bridal chamber, he only knew what it means to be "like a frightening bird, graceful like a dragon, Rong Yao Qiu Ju, Hua Mao Chun Song".
He changed his robes in the morning and looked at the woman sitting in front of the mirror dressing her makeup. It was obviously just a gesture of holding her cheeks in her hands, but she gave her a lazy beauty that made the people watching next to her wish to do what she was holding in her hands. A jade bracelet, as long as it can get a beautiful smile, is enough.
Because she was newly married and she was going to visit the Empress, Hua Xiwan chose a wide-sleeved flower palace skirt. Although the color was a bit brighter, when Hua Xiwan put the dress on her body, it pressed the hem of the skirt. The gorgeousness of the big red flower will only make people see her fair skin and graceful posture.
Looking at herself in the mirror with a flying fairy bun, Hua Xiwan chose a luan phoenix with beads from the jewelry box to wear it, and the yellow flowers on her forehead became brighter.
Bai Xia and the others did not ask Princess Princess why she chose this too beautiful Jin Buyao, but just dressed her properly according to her wishes, so that people couldn't pick out the slightest fault.
They have been with Princess Princess for seven or eight years. It is rare to see Princess Princess pay attention to dressing up, and how to feel comfortable on weekdays. Only when it is time to go to Hua Sanye's mansion to greet the old lady, will the princess go out dressed in the attire that matches Miss Hou's mansion. She is so meticulously dressed as today, hand-picking everything from hairpins to sachets has never happened before. of.
Hua Xiwan used her eyebrows to trace the most suitable eyebrow shape for herself, and even traced the corners of her eyes with a special pen. After finishing her makeup, she got up and asked the maids to sort out the accessories and sachets on her body.
Every woman has a lazy side, but when they need to go out and meet people, delicate makeup and gorgeous clothes will become their necessities. Some people like to describe a woman's well-dressed behavior as a woman who pleases herself. Hua Xiwan scoffed at this sentence. Before she goes out, she dresses up beautifully, not for any man, but to satisfy her own beauty-loving heart. There is no man in the world who doesn't want to be more handsome, and which woman doesn't like to be more beautiful.
But men always think that all the women in the world dress beautifully to attract them. I really don't know how big a face is to be so self-righteous.
She can be unkempt when she is not seen at home, but when she goes out, she will be a bright queen.
After the maid matched her with the last pierced skirt, Hua Xiwan turned around and smiled at Yan Jinqiu, who was sitting beside her, "I made you wait, Jinqiu."
"It's also a kind of enjoyment to watch beautiful women put on makeup, why wait for the words," Yan Jinqiu slightly moved his eyes away and walked in front of Hua Xiwan, "It's not early, why don't we go to the palace after having breakfast together? Holy."
"Everything is up to you." Hua Xiyuan nodded, knowing that Yan Jinqiu's mother died young and his father King Xian also went there four years ago, so there is no need to serve tea to the elders. With a smile on her lips, she naturally handed over to Yan Jinqiu and asked him to support her. She went out of the inner room to the dining room outside, and saw a group of maids entered the room with various dishes, set the dishes and then backed out.
It seems that although there are no female relatives, the rules of the house are not relaxed at all. Hua Xiwan glanced at the other eunuch maids in the room who were standing quietly, and after sitting down with Yan Jinqiu, the maids waited and washed. Started eating with a hand.
Although the number of dishes is not much higher than that of Hou's mansion, she can eat more delicate ingredients than Hou's mansion. Presumably the housekeeper Mutong has done a very competent job. In awe.
It is rumored that the Duke of Xian is a gentle and considerate person, but I don't know what means to use to make his servants fear him so much
She took a look at Yan Jinqiu beside her by drinking porridge. From an objective point of view, Yan Jinqiu's appearance is indeed very good. . There is also this temperament, he is indeed a seductive man, no wonder he is so famous among the female family members in the capital.
The porridge is made of selected purple rice, which is delicate and elastic. It is refreshing and not greasy. The side dishes are also fresh and refreshing, which is very suitable for use after getting up in the morning. She thought with satisfaction that at least she didn't have to worry about the food when she married to the Xianjun Palace.
After breakfast, Hua Xiwan covered the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief and spit out the mouthwash, then took the handkerchief to wipe the corners of her mouth, and smiled at Yan Jinqiu: "I don't know who the chef is, this meal is very refreshing. Hongying, reward the chef with 10 taels of silver, the other cooks with 5 taels, and the rest who work as errands in the kitchen will pay half and half."
Hongying Weiwei Fushen: "This slave has written it down."
Hua Xiwan nodded, then turned to look at Yan Jinqiu and said, "Marry Jinqiu, I will have good luck in the future."
Yan Jinqiu was washing his hands at this time and was wiping the water beads on his hands. Hearing Hua Xiwan's words, he smiled and said, "It is their duty and their blessing to be able to serve the master comfortably."
Hua Xiwan said with a smile: "Even so, but the people below do things with all their heart, and always have to be rewarded, and let others know that this is an example."
"Xiwan is right," Yan Jinqiu glanced at the sky outside, got up and said, "It's getting late, let's go out now."
Hua Xiwan nodded, and when she was about to get up, she saw that Yan Jinqiu's hand had been stretched out in front of her, she didn't twist, she put her hand in the other's palm, stood up, and followed Yan Jinqiu out of the room.
Outside the main house where the two lived, there was a large garden with exotic flowers and plants, as well as rugged rockery, which looked quite artistic. After leaving the main house, there is a large lotus pond outside. There is a Jiuquhui Bridge built on the lotus pond. When Hua Xiwan passed by the bridge, she saw a few fish swimming in the water.
This is also very interesting to show the palace of the prince. The main house is surrounded by mountains and rivers, which is a good feng shui pattern, not to mention the lotus flower with auspicious meaning in this pool. It can be seen that the old prince spent a lot of energy when building the palace.
After leaving the flower gate, there were two soft sedan chairs waiting outside. Hua Xiwan got on the sedan chair, and when the sedan chair was carried outside the gate, she got off the sedan chair and glanced at the imposing pair of stone lions at the gate of the palace, and then swept away. Around the eyes, there were no passers-by who joined in the fun, only the guards who stood upright and did not hang their heads. The six black horses in front of the carriage had no variegation, and the copper bells around their necks stood out.
"Come on," Yan Jinqiu stood on the carriage, bent down and stretched out his hand toward Hua Xiwan, "come up."
The person in front of him was wearing a soft silk robe of Shu brocade blue in the rain, and his black hair was tied with a white jade crown. The smile and the outstretched hand really looked like the most perfect man in a woman's imagination. Hua Xiwan smiled and handed him his hand, stepped on the stool and got into the carriage, swaying gently, smudged with a shyness unique to her daughter's family.
But there is never a perfect person in this world. As long as people have desires, they will have shortcomings.
"Be careful," Yan Jinqiu sat around Hua Xiwan's waist, "don't be nervous when you get to the palace, everything is up to me."
Hua Xiwan smiled and lowered her eyes: "Well."
Emperor Qilong can be regarded as a very capable man. He was able to win the throne among several brothers, which was enough to show his ability. After he succeeded to the throne, it also proved that he was suitable to be an emperor. His biggest regret in this life was probably his weak son. At this point, his other brothers are much better than him.
Hua Xiwan knew that Yan Jinqiu had an elder sister and a younger brother who was a few months younger than him, but she had never seen both of them, so she would not rashly mention them in front of Yan Jinqiu.
Entering the palace, Hua Xiwan found that although the layout was different from the Forbidden City she had visited in her previous life, the atmosphere was the same. To be precise, because the Forbidden City she had seen in her previous life had no feudal rulers, and had become a place for viewing, the sense of sternness had disappeared a lot. And the palace here, after she stepped in, she felt a sense of strict hierarchy.
On the way, she met the palace maid eunuchs who saluted in fear and bowed to avoid looking, and the cautious attitude of the leading eunuchs, which made her truly understand what a royal family is. This is something that she could never understand when she played the queen in her previous life. Probably this is the so-called royal majesty.
Emperor Qilong lived in the Guangyang Hall of Chengzhang Palace. Yan Jinqiu and Hua Xiwan arrived at the outer hall and waited for less than half a column of incense. Eunuch Ma, who was needed by Emperor Qilong, came to the two and told them The emperor announced.
"The servants have not congratulated the prince of the county before," Eunuch Ma bowed and said, "I wish the prince and the princess of the county to have an early son."
"Engong Ma's auspicious words," Xian Jun Wang smiled, but he did not deliberately try to please the people around the emperor, "I'll trouble you to lead the way."
"Your Majesty is polite," Eunuch Ma respectfully backed away, bowed slightly and led the two to Guangyang Hall, without looking at Hua Xiwan out of curiosity from beginning to end.
"Please wait a moment, Prince of the County, Princess of the County." Outside the main hall, Eunuch Ma bowed before entering the hall to report. After a while, a decent eunuch invited the two to enter.
"My nephew and my wife will visit the emperor." Yan Jinqiu took Hua Xiwan to the front of the hall. Hua Xiwan saw only a bright yellow corner of her clothes, and knelt down with Yan Jinqiu.
The moment Yan Jinqiu led Hua Xiwan into the palace gate, the smile on Emperor Qilong's face faded a bit, but after Yan Jinqiu knelt down, the smile on his face returned to normal: " Little Ma, quickly help the prince up."
Eunuch Ma and a female official beside her smiled and stretched out their hands to support the two. Hua Xiwan nodded slightly to the female official who was supporting her, and stood silently beside Yan Jinqiu.
"Where is your family being so polite, just sit down," Emperor Qilong smiled heartily, as the uncle, he couldn't possibly stare at his niece-in-law, so he naturally set his eyes on Yan Jinqiu, "Now you have become a family. , you should focus more on political affairs, I also hope that your helper will make it easy for me."
"Your Majesty's words are serious. Your nephew is young and ignorant. Your Majesty, you don't dislike your nephew's actions. It is a great fortune for your nephew. You really don't have the face to help you." Rumors that he is talented are not justified.
"Young people will learn more," Emperor Qilong said in an air of indifference, and said very lovingly, "The Marquis of Yi'an has a strict family style and is a well-rounded family, and their daughters are sure to be good, can you? Don't betray my painstaking efforts."
"Chen and nephew keep in mind the emperor's teachings," Yan Jinqiu stood up and bowed to the emperor. "Chen and nephew thanked the emperor for his grace here. If it weren't for you, the emperor, how could I have married such a good wife."
Hua Xiwan buried her head lower, making her shyness more obvious.
Emperor Qilong pulled the corner of his mouth and smiled: "Hehe, you are my nephew, how can I not plan for you juniors."
"Your nephew and nephew asked the emperor to worry about you." Yan Jinqiu also showed a little smile.
The man in the harem (remastered)
"I heard that Princess Xianjun's body is weak and there are many imperial doctors in the palace, Ziling, please remember to take good care of your own princess," Emperor Qilong glanced over Hua Xiwan, and said in the tone of an elder, "I still Waiting to hug my nephew and grandson."
"Yes, keep this in mind." Yan Jinqiu responded.
"The Queen Mother is talking about you these days, and she must be in a hurry at this time, so I won't leave you," Emperor Qilong and the husband and wife had another conversation. After rewarding some things, they asked the two people left.
Eunuch Ma sent the two to the outside of the palace, watched the backs of the two leaving, and sighed. Although he just glanced at it, he didn't see the appearance of Princess Qingxian, but at least he was sure that the other party was a beauty, not like As rumored, she is a saltless woman.
As soon as he turned around and returned to the outside of Guangyang Hall, Eunuch Ma heard the sound of objects falling to the ground from the room. He paused and stepped into the hall. He saw that the emperor swept everything on the table to the ground. It was furious.
All the people serving in the hall knelt down on the ground in fear, and Eunuch Ma immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, please calm your anger."
"Quiet your anger, what will you do to calm your anger?!" Emperor Qilong did not expect that he had calculated everything, but he did not calculate that the daughter of the Marquis of Yi'an was not the saltless girl in the rumors, but a rare beauty in the world. Even if Duke Xian is not a person who is obsessed with beauty, he will still pay a lot of attention in the face of such a beautiful appearance, so how could it possibly cause a conflict between him and the Marquis of Yi'an? !
Thinking that he personally sent a helper to Yan Jinqiu, Emperor Qilong, who was good at calculating, felt his heart arouse, and it was particularly disgusting to see all the court attendants in the palace who were obedient.
The palace attendants didn't dare to intercede, and after being dragged out and beaten with the Shigong staff, they breathed a sigh of relief, at least their lives were saved.
Although Eunuch Ma also received ten slaps, the executioner knew that he was the one in front of the emperor. Even if the emperor disobeyed him for a while, he would still be someone the emperor could use in the future. , it hits loudly, but it doesn't actually use much energy.
As soon as the ten boards were finished, a little eunuch stepped forward to support Eunuch Ma, and even brought tea and water. Eunuch Ma had a hip injury, and he didn't dare to sit, so he had to let a eunuch support him and let him stand against a pillar to drink tea. After a bowl of tea, Eunuch Ma regained his breath. He was no better than those young eunuchs who could withstand the toss. After all these years in the palace, his body had already weakened a lot, and now he is only relying on those good medicines to support him. .
"Okay, you should be more dedicated when you serve the emperor," Eunuch Ma reminded him casually after accepting the feelings of these people who please him, but he didn't say anything else.
There were all those who served the emperor, and who was not a human being, it was natural to hear that Eunuch Ma was implying that the emperor was in a bad mood recently. They were smart and didn't ask any more questions. They just sent Eunuch Ma back carefully, and all the strings in their hearts were raised.
In the Fukang Palace, the queen chatted with the queen mother to relieve the boredom. Although the atmosphere was not warm, it was not cold. Over the years, the queen has also become accustomed to this atmosphere, so there is no embarrassment at all.
The Empress Dowager is not the emperor's biological mother, but the emperor and King Xian were both raised under the name of the empress dowager. After the emperor ascended the throne, he was honored as the mother empress dowager. The empress dowager does not like to meddle in the affairs of the harem on weekdays, and she also maintains the filial piety of mother and son with the emperor. The emperor has respected the empress dowager these years.
"Qi to the queen mother, the queen, the king of Xianjun and the princess of Xianjun have come to greet you." At this moment, the mother Zhao next to the queen mother walked in with a smile on her face, and bowed to the two of them, "Can you summon me. "
Before waiting for the queen to speak, the queen mother said with a smile on her face: "Let them in quickly, Aijia still wants to see what grandson daughter-in-law looks like."
The queen sat beside her and pursed her lips and chuckled, and turned her head to look at the door. Among these grandchildren, the Queen Mother has always liked Duke Xian, and even the Crown Prince couldn't match the status of Duke Xian in her heart. However, the queen mother has no real power, and the king of Xianjun is a talented person who likes poetry and is not good at political affairs, so the emperor and her will turn a blind eye.
She knew the rumors that Princess Xianjun's appearance was worthless, but looking at the appearance of the Queen Mother, she knew that she didn't know anything about rumors outside the palace, otherwise she wouldn't have the heart to wait to see her grandson-in-law.
The smile on the corner of the queen's mouth was even more obvious. After hearing the eunuch's announcement that the King Xian and Princess Xian had arrived, she turned slightly to make her sitting posture more dignified.
But after a while, the smile on the queen's face became reluctant.
The woman who followed King Xianjun wore a gorgeous flying fairy bun, with a dazzling golden step on her temples, which made her snow-like skin softer, and her floral dress seemed to be alive. The person in the skirt is set off like a fairy, so that people can only notice her and see nothing else.
Such a beautiful woman... The queen was a little stunned, and said that the emperor's harem was absolutely stunning, but compared to the princess of Xianjun in front of her, those women in the palace were nothing more than vulgar fans with more than enough beauty and imposing manner.
After King Xianjun brought the princess to pay homage to the queen mother, the queen came to her senses. She looked at the princess of Xianjun who was being held by the queen mother, and sighed in her heart.
But that's fine, it's better to have such a beauty in the palace than in the harem. If such a woman becomes a concubine, I am afraid that her queen will also have no place to stand. Not to mention that if the prince had other thoughts after seeing such looks, it would become a thousand-year-old scandal, and it would be hard to predict who would end up with the throne in the end.
The existence of a woman who is too beautiful is a disaster in itself, otherwise, how can the world come to this sentence? King Xian Jun married such a woman, whether it is a blessing or a curse, I am afraid it is difficult to predict.
"Okay," the queen mother looked at Hua Xiwan carefully, said three good words in a row, and then said to Yan Jinqiu, "Your princess Aijia likes you very much, and you should treat others well in the future, if I know you If you have been wronged, the Aijia will not spare you."
Yan Jinqiu nodded and said, "Don't worry, grandmother, grandson will treat Xiwan well and won't let her be wronged."
The Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction, then turned her head and pulled Hua Xiwan to sit beside her, patted the back of her hand and said, "Aijia hasn't seen such a beautiful daughter's house in so many years, and this is a good spirit. ."
Hua Xiwan smiled and let the empress dowager hold her hand, and said softly: "The prince is very good to his granddaughter-in-law, please rest assured." The empress dowager seems to be a little different from what she expected. The preparation of her appearance, now it seems that she thinks too much.
When the queen mother heard this, the smile on her face became more obvious: "You two have a good relationship, and Aijia is also happy to see it." After speaking, she rewarded Hua Xiwan with a bunch of things, many of which were Good things that money can't buy.
Even though she knew that the Queen Mother always preferred King Xian, but after watching this scene, the Queen still felt somewhat uncomfortable. When the prince married the prince concubine to visit the queen mother, the queen mother was not so enthusiastic. Although the number of things to be rewarded was similar, can those things be compared with those treasured by the queen mother
However, despite being unhappy in her heart, the queen did not show half a point on her face, but instead echoed the words of the queen mother from time to time, and added two points to the originally planned reward.
"If it wasn't for the fact that Princess Xianjun was weak and never attended the banquet in the palace, otherwise this palace would have fallen in love with a girl with such a symbol," the queen said while the queen mother was drinking tea, "King Xianjun is so lucky to marry her. Such a beauty."
"According to your good words, Empress," Yan Jinqiu bowed his hands in the direction of Guangyang Palace, "It is all thanks to the Holy Lord Longen that the nephew and the minister were able to marry such a virtuous wife."
The queen said Hua Xiwan's appearance, but Yan Jinqiu's words emphasized a virtuous character, but she even took the emperor to block the queen's words, leaving the queen nowhere to refute.
The queen is a woman who has been in the harem for many years. Naturally, she will not lose her demeanor because of such a sentence. Instead, she nodded with a smile: "The emperor and this palace are your elders, so naturally they have to think of you. I was worried about your princess. She is weak, and seeing her looking good today, I am relieved."
Yan Jinqiu is a man, so naturally he won't keep bickering with the queen. After he thanked him again, he sat on the side and stopped talking.
At this time, Hua Xiwan said at the right time: "My niece fell ill a few years ago because of a serious illness. My parents visited famous doctors to survive. Because the doctor said that my niece needs to rest, she has been in the mansion for all these years. I was not allowed to go out. It took nearly a year to recover. In these years, because of my poor health, I couldn't see the queen mother and the queen's concubine. Kind and noble, the empress is more beautiful than imagined
