Guan Suyi stayed at home for half a month, and was finally ready to leave for Jiaozhou today. She got up early, didn't wash or dress, just sat in front of the mirror in a daze. At the beginning of her rebirth, she wanted to turn around and go back to Jiaozhou, and she will never go to Beijing.
Jin Zi and Ming Lan packed their belongings in large and small bags, and even took down the gauze curtains on the windows and planned to take them away.
Suddenly, a myna came in through the crack of the open window, flew down onto the bronze mirror, tilted its head to look at her, "Don't go, madam, marry me!" It jumped left, jumped right, and kept repeating these two sentence.
Minglan sucked in a breath of cold air, hurriedly closed the window, and ran outside to check. Seeing that there were no idle people waiting to come in or out, she slapped her chest and slumped against the door frame. This little thing ran out suddenly and said these things that outsiders must not listen to. I'm afraid that she will lose her soul by making a few more noises. Sure enough, he had to leave Yanjing as soon as possible.
"You sip 'Zhen' one at a time, aren't you afraid that others will cook you as a 'chaotic thief'?" Guan Suyi's dull mood was slightly cheerful, and she pinched Brother Myna's pointed mouth to make fun of it. The granny fluttered her wings and wanted to scratch with her claws, but hesitantly put it down. Obviously, she had received strict training and would not hurt her in the slightest.
"Forget it, no one will listen to these words in the future. Let your master entertain yourself." Guan Suyi took out a few grains of rice from her purse and summoned, "Come and eat. I'll teach you the last sentence. Words, cherish, cherish…”
Brother Mynah is very smart, and he can repeat it after listening to it a few times. Then Guan Suyi held it out of the window and let it fly, watching it disappear in the direction of the imperial city. When I left, I realized that the years I stayed in Beijing were not all depression and pain, but also sunshine and spring breeze; more free and easy, wandering and uninhibited, and such memories are all related to Hunnar.
So even if you are reluctant, it is human nature, right
Guan Suyi didn't dare to think deeply, she quickly took care of herself, and went to the front hall to say goodbye to her family. After breakfast, the gate of the house was opened, and dozens of guards escorted seven carriages, intending to go to Jiaozhou. The passers-by pointed and talked a lot. They all said that the noble lady is really full of style, and she has so much luggage when she goes out, I am afraid that there are many valuable things.
However, who knows, there are only a few bags of soft goods in the car, and the rest are only loaded with books. To ordinary people, they are worthless, but in the eyes of Guan family, they are valuable.
Mr. Guan clutched his chest and muttered, "Yiyi, your grandfather's family has a huge collection of books, why did you take our family's books away? How troublesome is this going back and forth?"
"No trouble, I only loaded seven carriages when I went, and maybe there will be fourteen when I come back. It's so reluctant to let a child fall for a wolf. Grandfather, please be more generous." Sweep, then pause. Kunal really came, with a layer of smack on his face, and a myn standing on his shoulders, talking in his ear.
He noticed her gaze, and silently prayed, "Don't go."
What if you don't go? Do you really marry into the palace? The last time her father asked her how a gentleman should be regent, this was a hint to her that even if the emperor was deeply affectionate and righteous, once the two were united, it would become a purely political relationship. And politics is precisely the most dangerous and most difficult to grasp. She is the second marriage, her name is not justified, her status is destined to be a head lower than other concubines, how can she dominate the six palaces
Moreover, she felt tired even managing Zhao's house, and she would not jump into the sea of fire without thinking.
After thinking about it, she retracted her gaze and boarded the carriage, but she heard someone outside the car urgently shout, "Grandpa, there is a letter from Jiaozhou, you should take it apart and see, don't tell me what happened over there."
Grandpa Guan opened the envelope and read it quickly, his reluctant expression was immediately replaced by joy, "Quickly unload the car!" He waved to the guard, "Don't go, my father-in-law and mother-in-law are already on their way to Beijing. Yiyi, come down with me. go home."
"What's the matter?" Guan Suyi asked as he lifted the curtain.
"The emperor wants to cast a history for the Wei Kingdom and write a biography for himself, and specially invited your grandmother to come to Beijing to write a book. History books are so easy to write, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave when I come back this time! Our family can finally be reunited, okay, great It's over!" The old man rejoiced, but Guan's father frowned and looked worried.
Guan Suyi immediately jumped out of the car and kept asking, "Is it true? Let me see." Only then did she realize that she didn't want to leave Yanjing at all. Leaving this gave her pain and also gave her Joyful place.
Outside the crowd, Emperor Shengyuan looked at his wife with a smile. Her joyous appearance was so obvious that she was extremely reluctant to bear him. treasure? He doesn't need to cherish each other, he just wants to hold on to forever. Without his permission, Madam can't go anywhere, and even the two Lord Taishan can't arrange for her to go or stay. He can give her the freedom to choose, but he won't give her the right to refuse, whether to agree now or in the future, it's just a matter of time.
----
The trip was cancelled, and the only person who was unhappy about the Guan family was his father, but he couldn't say anything, so he had to find another way. Fortunately, the imperial examination was imminent, and students from all over the country flocked to Yanjing. At this time, it was time to choose a few suitable sons-in-law. candidate. Zhong Shi also did not have the idea of letting her daughter stay alone for the rest of her life. Before she turned 20, it was serious to find a good next home as soon as possible.
On the day of the beginning of spring, Master Xuanguang held a literary meeting in Jueyin Temple. Many writers, scholars, students, and honorable people gathered together to communicate with each other, which can be regarded as a major event in Yanjing. And this year coincides with the imperial examination, and the literary society will naturally become an opportunity for the students to become famous. I don’t know how many people come with the idea of clinging to the powerful, trying to take a shortcut quietly. Soon you will be able to step into the sky.
Wasn't Di Shi and Tai Chang chosen by His Majesty at the text conference in Bodhi Garden? It may not be that lucky if it is someone else. What if His Majesty also came here in Bailongyu suit in order to examine Jinkezi's character and intelligence? Thinking about it this way, there was an endless stream of people who came to participate in the literary meeting, and even the noble ladies in Beijing came to the foot of the mountain in groups.
Guan Suyi was picked up by Mrs. Zhong early in the morning and dressed up. She changed several sets of clothes, and finally settled on a goose-yellow chest-length skirt with a white gauze on the outside, and the skirt was made of gold silk. Silver silk embroidered with willow leaves is not conspicuous at first glance, but it shines brightly in the sun.
That's all, she actually took out a ribbon of the same color, tied it tightly under her daughter's chest, and tied a bow on the chest to tie her daughter's already plump chest even higher. Gully even Guan Suyi felt blushing when she saw it.
"Mother, why did you let me wear this kind of clothes? It's too embarrassing!" She complained while covering her chest.
"What do you know? This is a style passed down from the Jiuli people. The eldest princess wears this kind of dress every day. She even skims her gauze when the weather is hot, and goes out with her bare arms. After watching for a long time, she gets used to it. When I think about it, it's pretty, at least prettier than a ruffled skirt with sleeves." Mrs. Zhong bent over to wear anklets for her daughter, and taught earnestly, "The Zhao family is neither in the eyes of aristocratic families, nor is it comparable to the upstarts in the court, and later on, even the title of nobility. No, you are reduced to a commoner. Even if you hold the title of Mrs. Yipin, there are no nobles in Beijing, and I am afraid that you have little communication on weekdays. After coming to Yanjing for a year, how many times have you been out? How many times have you been there? Banquet? Do you know the ladies of each family? Do you know what the most fashionable clothes, jewelry, and faces are in Yanjing City? Knowing how to read books all day long is a waste of life.”
After wearing the anklets, she took out many exquisite wooden boxes, selected headgear for her daughter, and said earnestly, "You are from Heli. Although you are talented, your personality is too rigid. Mother, don't be happy if you tell the truth, What mother-in-law would dare to have a daughter-in-law like you? I'm not afraid to marry a god and go back, I can't hold it back. Your biggest advantage now is this face. If your mother doesn't make you more beautiful, let the sons of the family take the initiative. Ask for marriage, I'm afraid no iceman will come."
She put a set of emerald heads on her daughter's temples, pinched her chin and turned left and right, sighing, "My daughter is so beautiful, even if she praises the country and the city, she will show her talents at the Wenhui. This marriage is so beautiful. Don't worry about it."
Guan Suyi kept covering her cold chest with her palms, and said with a smile, "Mother, my daughter just reconciled, so I'm not in a hurry to get married now."
"You're not in a hurry, I'm in a hurry. Shut up and put some mouth fat on you." Mr. Zhong took out a lot of bottles and jars and began to apply it to his daughter's face. The Zhong family is a family of agronomists. The rouge and gouache used by the women of the tribe are all prepared by themselves, and the effect is better than that of the tribute from the inner palace. And Zhong Shi is the best among them. If you are serious, you can even carve a few flowers from dead wood, not to mention Guan Suyi is not dead wood, but beautiful jade.
After a quarter of an hour, Jin Zi and Ming Lan who walked into the house to pack their things couldn't even recognize them, and stammered, "Little, why is the lady dressed like this?"
The beautiful woman stood leaning against the window, dressed in brocade. The originally plain face was painted with bright and dripping mouth fat, and a small dot-shaped gold foil was pasted on both sides of the eyebrows. , a slight turn of the eyes is a charming style, it is like a hook, hooking the tip of a person's heart tightly, and like a blunt knife, slowly stabbing you in the chest, so that you can only blink without blinking Just staring at her relieved the pain of the heartbeat.
It's not enough to have this fascinating face alone. She actually wears the most fashionable chest-length skirt. Her proud double peaks are half exposed, round and upturned; When walking, the breeze blows the clothes, which outlines the small waist that cannot be grasped; the skirt blooms with it, and no matter how bright the gold and silver threads are, it is not comparable to her small and delicate feet and the one hanging on the ankles that are not loose or tight. The ruby is eye-catching.
Red oozing blood, white clear, step by step, she did not step on the ground, but on the heartstrings of others. Where is this going to participate in the literary meeting, but it is killing people! After today, I don't know how many handsome young men's hearts will be pinched to death in her hands. Thinking like this, Jin Zi and Ming Lan let out a sigh of relief, finally being able to breathe.
