Officials in the capital found that the King of England, who had been keeping a low profile for half a month, has been shaking again in recent days. Not only did he present something auspicious to His Majesty, but he also asked the musicians to sing a song in praise of His Majesty. It is said that every time I listen to this song, In the first song, the King of England will hide his face and tears, lamenting His Majesty's great achievements, wise and benevolent.
After hearing this, Emperor Changlong sighed and rewarded the King of England with something, and by the way, he politely reminded him not to let musicians sing this song in the future.
"What does the royal father mean?" The King of England looked at the imperial gifts placed in the house, and thoughtfully, "Could it be that the royal father thinks this song is not well written enough?"
It seems that he should find a musician to re-arrange the song.
After the ceremony of sacrificing heaven, Hua Liuli was kept by the queen mother for a few days before she was released reluctantly by the queen mother. Clothes and jewelry were stuffed into several large boxes, and the queen mother felt that she was missing a few sets of beautiful clothes.
Knowing that the queen mother was really reluctant to part with herself, Hua Liuli also felt reluctance in her heart. After getting up in the morning, I stayed by the Queen Mother's side all the time, talking to make her happy.
"Count the days, your parents are about to return to Beijing." The Queen Mother glanced at the sky, "It's almost noon, you have lunch before you leave."
Looking down at the hand gently held by the Queen Mother, Hua Liuli nodded: "Okay."
"You grew up at the border gate, and you were taken into the palace by Ai's family as soon as you returned to Beijing. Maybe there are many things that are still unclear." The Queen Mother sighed, "This is the most prosperous place in our Dajin, and it is also the most complicated place. Don't trust someone easily, but don't give up your heart for other things."
"The Queen Mother." Hua Liuli's heart trembled slightly, she did not expect that the Queen Mother would say such words for her.
"Ai Jia said this, not to make you timid and afraid, but to tell you that you are the princess proclaimed by His Majesty, your father is an indomitable general, and your mother is a heroine, you don't need to change for anyone. The Queen Mother solemnly patted the back of Hua Liuli's hand, "You are still young, and a person's life is still very long."
Hua Liuli's eyes were slightly red, and she nodded heavily: "The queen mother, the minister and daughter remembered."
"Let's go and have dinner with Ai's family." The Queen Mother smiled gently, as if she didn't think what she said just now was shocking to the world.
After the meal, even if the mother is reluctant to give up, she can only arrange for the palace servants to send Hua Liuli out of the palace.
With one less junior, the Shoukang Palace suddenly became quiet, and the queen mother lay on the phoenix bed, without the slightest sleepiness. Her close-fitting female official whispered, "Queen Mother, are you sleepy?"
"Ai's family is worried about that girl." The queen mother asked the female official to help herself up, "People in the capital are not as simple as border gates."
"The Queen Mother, you are very kind to Fushou County Master." The female official rolled up the curtain and helped the Queen Mother to sit by the window.
"The child's eyes are beautiful." The Queen Mother smiled, "The heart is also sincere."
"What's the meaning of this?" Seeing that the Queen Mother was having fun, the female official boldly asked a few more questions.
"Every time she goes out with Ai's family, her arms are always protecting Ai's family." The queen mother entered the palace at the age of fifteen. She is over sixty years old. She has experienced many things and seen many people, and she thinks she can see it Understand the third person's heart.
"It seems that it was an assassination incident in the palace, which made her think that there is danger everywhere in the palace, and there is a possibility of a killer rushing out at any time." The queen mother laughed, "Her thin arms and legs make Ai Jia feel worried."
"It's still the empress dowager, your eyes are so bright, the slaves can't see anything."
"That's because you haven't seen Liuli's mother. When Liuli's mother was beside Aijia, she was like this." The queen mother smiled, "Aijia asked her why she was doing this. She replied that that kind of posture is the most beautiful. It is easy to find the enemy, and it is also the easiest to hide Aijia behind."
Speaking of this, the Queen Mother couldn't help laughing: "At the age of Aijia, there is never a shortage of people who deliberately please, but there are not many children who are sincere but do not speak out."
When the female official heard the words, her tone couldn't help but contain a bit of regret: "It's a pity that the main body of the county is weak, otherwise she will become a heroine like the general's wife."
"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Who said that children must live like their parents." The Queen Mother was quite open to it. "Everything can't be forced."
The female official gently beat the Queen Mother's legs: "The Queen Mother is right, the servants just feel a little distressed about the body of the princess."
The queen mother nodded and sighed: "That's right, she's not in good health and likes to be picky eaters. When her parents return to Beijing, I'll let them take good care of her."
The female official thought to herself, the county owner has lived with her parents at the border for fifteen years and has not changed her mind. I am afraid it will be difficult to change her in this life.
The carriage came out of Shoukang Palace, and before long, Hua Liuli heard someone calling her.
"Fu Shou County Master, please stay."
Hua Liuli opened the curtain and saw a woman in a light-colored palace dress being supported by the palace maid, looking at her with a smile.
"Mrs. Concubine Shu." Hua Liuli got off the carriage and bowed to Concubine Shu. Concubine Shu is the biological mother of the fifth prince. It is said that she came from a scholarly family. It is no wonder that the fifth prince has become a jade-like gentleman.
"The princess doesn't need to be too polite." Concubine Shu stretched out her hand to help Hua Liuli, "Are you going to leave the palace?"
She glanced at the carriages that followed Hua Liuli, and knew that they were filled with gifts from the Queen Mother, Her Majesty, and the Prince to Hua Liuli, and took out a treasure box from the palace maid behind her: "I don't know that the princess will be leaving today. Gong, I originally planned to go to Shoukang Palace to see you. I heard that the main body of the county is weak and afraid of the cold, and this warm jade has the effect of nourishing the body. If the county master does not dislike it, accept it."
"What's so funny..."
"It is useful to the county master, that is the warm jade. It is a useless stone if it stays with me, and it is the greatest use if the county master likes it." Concubine Shu is a gentle woman, every word, Every movement makes me feel very comfortable.
In the end, Hua Liuli accepted this warm jade. After saying goodbye to Concubine Shu, she happened to meet Concubine Rong, the biological mother of King Ning, and Concubine Xian, the biological mother of King Ying. Everyone gave her a generous gift.
"If the fourth prince's biological mother, Concubine Lin, is here, then I'll be amazing today." Hua Liuli put the three gift boxes together and sighed.
"The people in the palace have really complicated minds." Iris put the gift box under the seat of the carriage and put a bag of jerky in Hua Liuli's hand.
Ever since the prince found out that Hua Liuli likes to eat this kind of jerky, he has asked the palace servants to bring it to her every day. This bag was not finished yesterday.
Hua Liuli sneered, it was not easy for these three empresses, they obviously didn't like her that much, but they had to take her as their own daughter, and even bothered to prepare gifts for her.
"Fu Shou County Master, please stay."
The master and servant looked at each other, Hua Liuli put the dried meat back into Iris' hands, rubbed her hands together and said, "It's finally here."
She lifted the curtain and looked outside, and saw that the carriage had already arrived at the gate of the palace, and the prince was riding on the back of a snow-colored horse, looking at her with a smile that was not a smile.
"His Royal Highness?" Hua Liuli didn't expect that the person who came was not Concubine Lin but the Crown Prince. She got off the carriage and waited for the prince to slowly come over on horseback. She couldn't help but take a few more glances at the horse, what a beautiful horse.
"Like it?" the prince asked.
Hua Liuli nodded slightly.
The prince turned over and dismounted, and put the reins in Hua Liuli's white and tender palm: "I'll give it to you if I like it."
"Ah?" Hua Liuli was stunned, so casual
"What's wrong?" The prince saw Hua Liuli staring at him blankly, "What's wrong with Gu today?"
"His Royal Highness is still beautiful today." Hua Liuli shook her head and touched the top of Ma'er's head. Seeing that Ma'er did not resist her, she couldn't help laughing, "This horse is a god horse, and the servant girl is not in good health. , I don't have many opportunities to ride on weekdays, it stays with me...wasted."
"A good horse matches a gentleman." Hua Liuli met Ma'er's big clean eyes with a smile on the corners of her brows, "The courtier really likes it, but it is more useful to keep it by His Highness's side."
The prince looked at the smile in Hua Liuli's eyes, and was silent for a moment: "Gu Gu understands, this horse Gu Gu is raising for you, and I will send it to you when your body recovers after the spring."
Hua Liuli returned the reins to the prince's hands: "I thank your highness first."
"Don't be picky when you go back to the palace, children can only grow taller if they eat well." The prince asked the eunuch to hand over a half-arm-length box to the palace servant who sent Hua Liuli back to the palace, "In ten days, it will be New Year's Eve, and then the palace will be in the palace. There will be a palace banquet, and you will have something to eat before you come."
Hua Liuli: "..."
"Those things look good, but they don't taste very good." The prince wanted to pat Hua Liuli's head, remembering that he was not her biological brother, so he took his hand back, "Okay, you go back sooner, so you should be alone. Back to the palace."
"Your Highness, walk slowly." Hua Liuli waved with a smile.
The prince got on his horse, leaned over and said to Hua Liuli: "By the way, Gu has not thanked you for your life-saving grace, so I would like to thank the princess that day."
Hua Liuli remembered that what the prince said was the day of the assassination of the East Palace, she covered her chest and said with a white face: "The servant girl can't bear His Highness's thanks, it's just a coincidence, it's not the work of the servant girl."
"The coincidence is on you, and that's also your credit." The prince smiled, "Otherwise, why didn't anyone else encounter it?"
"His Royal Highness forgot, you also saved the courtier's daughter." Hua Liuli looked up at the prince on the horse's back, "In the Lincui Palace that day, if it wasn't for your highness to send something over, maybe the courtier's daughter would have taken the cup of poison. drink."
The prince saw that there was a clear figure in Hua Liuli's eyes, that was himself.
He couldn't hold back, he stretched out his index finger and lightly tapped the top of her head: "Go back, be careful on the road."
After he finished speaking, he patted the horse's back, and the horse stepped into the palace gate.
Hua Liuli returned to the carriage, opened the big box given to her by the prince, and smiled instantly.
There are all kinds of delicious snacks in it, which are divided into grids, and each grid is full, exuding an attractive taste.
"Iris, I think the most beautiful of the five princes is the prince." Hua Liuli put the note in the box "Don't eat too much, eat on time" next to it, tasted each snack, and squinted. With emotion, "Especially today is extraordinarily beautiful, unmatched, unparalleled in the world."
Iris smiled: "Are you praising the prince? You are praising the prince who is willing to give you delicious food."
"No, am I that superficial?" Hua Liuli shook her head.
What she boasted was the prince who handed the reins to her hand after turning over and dismounting.
It looks so good!
The author has something to say: Iris: Yeah, you are.
King of England: Today, I am still the one who pleases my father~
