A quarter of an hour later, the commander of Jinyiwei ran back with the jade pendant and said, "Madam, the emperor asked you to go back for a while, and someone will pick you up tomorrow morning."
Guan Suyi hurriedly asked, "Where is my father..." She doesn't care who will pick her up tomorrow and what to do, she just wants to know if her father will be okay.
"It's just a day's work, you can rest assured." The commander of Jin Yiwei called a palace car and forcibly sent people back to the house.
Guan Suyi was completely at a loss. She stepped into the ceremony door with one foot high and one foot low. She saw her mother standing under the porch and looking at her neck, holding a brocade box in her hand, exactly the same as the one that Emperor Sheng Yuan rewarded every time. She was stunned for a while, and then asked, "Mother, is there anyone in the palace?"
"Noye, this is the brocade box sent by the eldest princess. It is said to let you dress up and see you tomorrow at the Rare Animal Garden." Zhongshi asked hopefully, "Yiyi, do you have friendship with the eldest princess? Can she Can't save your father? What did your senior brothers say?"
Guan Suyi did not dare to tell her mother about Emperor Shengyuan, lest she be worried, so she had to vaguely say, "I don't know if the eldest princess will agree, I will see it tomorrow. Brother Qi has also been arrested and is now on trial. , Senior Brother Zhou said he would help to inquire about the situation."
Seeing the bitterness on her face, Mrs. Zhong couldn't help laughing miserably, "You don't have to hide it from me, you say that the wall is pushed down by everyone, and your father is in trouble. His disciples and grandchildren are all well and good, so how can you risk being implicated in it? Help? Just now I sent a servant to the Heavenly Prison to inquire, saying that no one is allowed to visit at all, and no delivery is allowed. This is to prepare your father to die! I just hate that our family has no power and power, I can't avenge your father. I know best about him. How could he possibly do something illegal? This is someone who wants to blame him! He was wronged, he was really wronged..."
Unable to hold it any longer, Mr. Zhong sat on the steps and cried bitterly.
Guan Suyi's flushed eye sockets were slightly swollen, but she didn't dare to shed tears indiscriminately, lest she wake up tomorrow with more swelling and damage to her appearance. The only thing she can rely on now is this face, and she even thanked God in her heart for giving her a beautiful face, which made her lucky to be favored by the emperor, otherwise her father's life and death catastrophe would not be solved.
Tomorrow, she must devote 120,000 points of energy to please the emperor. Even if his thoughts about her fade away, she must find a way to arouse his interest again. She's had enough of the feeling of being wantonly mutilated! After thinking about it, she helped Mrs. Zhong and said firmly, "Mother, don't cry, the eldest princess promised to save Dad, and he will come back safely soon."
"Without relatives and no reason, why would she take action? Yiyi, even if you were Mrs. Zhenbei Hou, you wouldn't be able to see the face of the eldest princess, right?" shape.
"Mum, don't ask, anyway, I have a solution." Guan Suyi helped her back to the room, then opened the brocade box, and found a gorgeous crimson dress, a red sapphire head and a pair of pearls and jade embellishments. The crested shoes, as well as earrings, bracelets and necklaces, all looked very precious. There is no doubt that the eldest princess wants her to wear this outfit to an appointment.
Zhongshi was blinded by the colorful treasure light, and he couldn't help raising his hand to cover it, and then said in shock, "I understand! Does the eldest princess want to send you into the palace to serve the emperor?"
The person who most worried about the emperor and the prince's heirs in the state of Wei was the eldest princess. She is a die-hard royalist. Except for the Pan family under her command, she has no relationship with the other nine noble surnames, and it can even be said that the relationship is bad. If the emperor has no children and has to pass the throne to several nephews, she will definitely have a hard time in the future. Therefore, she often selects beautiful and healthy women from the people and sends them to the palace, urging the emperor to extend his descendants as soon as possible.
However, after years of hard work, the emperor still has no good news, and the urgency of her mood can be imagined.
Her daughter is good-looking, healthy, talented, and has a dignified manner. Now that she has just reconciled, it can make the eldest princess look normal. Besides, the eldest princess has a forthright temperament, not to mention the small details, not to mention the daughter of Heli, even the widow has been brought into the palace, just because the other party gave birth to five sons in a row, it should be a blessing.
In exchange, she promised to save the Guan family.
Zhong Shi, who thought he could break the truth, was suddenly caught in a dilemma. She was reluctant to bear her daughter, and her husband had to save her. After thinking about it, only the eldest princess could make it through. "No, no, let's find another way! The emperor is brutal and murderous, and you will die if you enter the palace. Let's not go!" She held the box in her arms and shook her head, and finally chose to protect her daughter.
But Guan Suyi has a stubborn temper, so how could she change her mind? On the surface, she promised that she would not go, but the next day she locked her mother in the room with a copper lock, while she dressed up and boarded the eldest princess. palace chariot. Under the leadership of the palace maid, she slowly detoured around the nine-curved corridor, one step at a time.
About a quarter of an hour later, the palace maid took her to a horse farm and pointed to the heroic woman who was speeding by and said, "That is His Royal Highness the eldest princess. Please wait a moment, your highness will be here soon."
Guan Suyi thanked in a low voice, then stood quietly by the fence and waited, even though her heart was tumbling, her face was extremely calm. The emperor did not come in person, and she felt a little disappointed. It could be seen that two months later, the other party had lost interest. The reason why she sent herself to the eldest princess was just with a dispensable mentality. But in any case, this is her last chance. Even if she is accused by thousands of people and reviled by thousands of people, she should be the lecherous woman who seduced the emperor!
While thinking about it, a group of noble girls slowly walked over. The leader was wearing a riding suit with a very arrogant expression, while the rest of the people were laughing around her to please.
Guan Suyi quickly stepped aside in order to avoid extraneous problems, and then bowed his head slightly to show respect. She was a little stunned, because Zhao Chunxi was also walking in the crowd. When she saw her, her eyes were rounded, she looked surprised, and then she hid behind a certain girl in a panic.
Guan Suyi had never seen such a dodging gesture on Zhao Chunxi. She is always high above, and her eyes are clean. Why has she been so low and small and servile like now? But she quickly realized that the reason why Zhao Chunxi became like this is probably all thanks to the "Book of Family Records".
She already knows the true origin of Zhenbei Hou's mansion, right? Where are they the descendants of the Tianshui Zhao clan, but the washma slaves who fled behind their masters and swindled and cheated under the banner of their masters. She often persuaded her not to get too close to Tianshui Zhao, but she never listened, and it was too late to distance herself now.
As soon as Guan Suyi thought of this, she heard the young lady of Zhao's direct branch say with a smile, "My father just gave me a sweaty BMW, which is kept in this rare animal park, Xi'er, please help me bring it here. Okay? That Ma Zili is strong, only you can cure it."
"Ms. Zhao has a family background and is very good at training horses. Last time I gave Haifeng to her, and she helped me to wash it clean and fed me a lot of grass. Now that Haifeng has met her, he is more affectionate than me. My heart is very sour." Another girl said a few coquettish words, causing everyone to wink and giggle.
In the past, Zhao Chunxi would never think elsewhere, thinking that the "family origin" in their mouths meant that they were born in a family, and have experience in raising and training horses, but now she understands that her blood is flowing with washing. The blood of Manu is so despicable. But they never mentioned her background, but secretly made fun of her, because in their eyes, she was just a clown.
However, even if she learned the truth, she could not get rid of the teasing and insults of these people, and even her anger had to be suppressed in her heart. Because the current Zhenbei Hou Mansion is implicated by the Ye family, she has already quit the circle of top dignitaries. Her background is not only branded as a fugitive slave, but also casts a shadow after being an official. In the future, she wants to marry into a wealthy family. , almost impossible.
She must cling to these people in order to keep her precarious position.
Listening to these spicy innuendo and looking at these hypocritical smiling faces, she felt as uncomfortable as a knife, especially Guan Suyi was also present, which made her feel more and more ashamed. She hated why Guan Suyi didn't tell the truth at first, and also hated that her mother was useless, and she couldn't even tie a man's heart.
But what can she do but hate? The feeling of powerlessness came surging, but she couldn't show the slightest difference, and she had to force a smile and run to lead the horse.
When Zhao Chunxi walked away, a group of noble girls gathered together and giggled and said something, without thinking about it, they knew that they were making fun of her. Guan Suyi didn't like this kind of intrigue, so she retreated without a trace. Simply these people were too lazy to pay attention to her, and each picked a horse to gallop off the field.
A quarter of an hour later, the eldest princess came on horseback, pressed the whip against her chin, forced her to look up, looked at it carefully for a long time, and said with admiration, "She is indeed a rare beauty, but the Guan family's children are weak and I don't know you. Will it survive?"
It's shameful not to answer this, Guan Suyi can only keep silent.
The eldest princess didn't need her response, she jumped off the horse and said, "I heard that the peony raised by the queen mother is blooming, and there is another flower king, anyway, I don't understand that thing, but the ladies in Yanjing seem to be very famous. Come, this hall will also take you to open your eyes."
"His Royal Highness, the father of the people's daughter..." Guan Suyi hesitated.
"Don't worry, someone will take care of this," the eldest princess waved her hand dismissively.
Guan Suyi didn't dare to ask again, so as not to be annoying. She followed the eldest princess to the garden step by step, and she saw many noble ladies gathered in twos and threes to enjoy the scenery, and when she caught a glimpse of her dressing up, her eyes showed a clear look. One of them was horrified, and that was Guan Wenhai's mother, Mrs. Mao.
Although her son was unlucky and failed after repeated attempts, he was fascinated by the concubine of King Jingjun because of his dignified appearance, and he was considered a good relative, so he was qualified to come to the Rare Animal Park. If anyone is the least willing to see the Guan family in their early stages, then it must belong to her family, because they oppressed people too much, almost to the point of being heartless.
She had no doubt that if Guan Suyi was sent to the palace and was favored, the first person to suppress would be her own family, so she hurried over and asked, "Suyi, was Miao'er secretly taken away by your mother? Bring her back!"
