Chapter 10 Princess
As the old saying goes, "People are clothes and horses are saddles." Standing in front of the makeup mirror, I kept sighing. The palace servant disbanded my messy hair and took out the jade grain to carefully sort it out for me. My hair has always been thick, hard and easy to knot. Although the palace waiter was careful, it still made my scalp painful.
"What?" The action that tortured me suddenly stopped, and through the bronze mirror, a thin figure stood quietly behind me, and everyone stood up. I walked around happily and plunged into his arms: "How's uncle?" The emperor's uncle suddenly picked up my face and stared at me for a long time. His eyes were full of sadness or joy, and he was very excited. I pouted and called, "Auncle?" He coughed, stroked my long hair, and muttered, "Why is it not good-looking? The so-called 'bright as spring, bright as the autumn moon' is nothing more than that. He turned his head to General Manager Qin and said excitedly, "But is it too god-like?" Indeed, the old slave just sighed and returned in a trance.
Listening to them, the fool should also know that he was the person his uncle missed. No wonder he was so close to me that he couldn't help but feel depressed. Silly child, he is stunned again. He smiled gently: "You are so beautiful today. How about your uncle combing your bun for you?" All the people were surprised that the emperor had such a preference.
He was extremely interested. He pulled me to sit in front of the mirror and took over the jade grate and carefully sorted it out for me. His movements in the bronze mirror were soft, as if he had practiced several times. One hand held a wisp a little first, and then the jade grim was slowly combed open. I don't know if it's because his technology is really good, or I'm confused by the smile on his lips. Anyway, I didn't feel any pain until he put on my hair.
"Your Majesty, there is a sudden rain outside the hall, and I'm afraid that the terrace can't accept the banquet." A palace man came in to report. In order to confirm his words, at this time, a muffled thunder rolled by and "rumbling" penetrated into his ears. Terrible?" The emperor's uncle, who was decorating me with pearl flowers, asked. Don't be afraid, it's just loud." I replied in a loud voice. Ha ha, good boy. Remember, the stronger the momentum, the faster it stops, and the rain... becomes a weather.
"Your Majesty, even if it rains, the water on the ground will be difficult to clean for a while, do you think?" The palace man kneeling on the ground spoke again. The emperor's uncle looked at him and said, "I know. Then change it to the night tour palace. Go." I put a jade hairpin with pearls in my hair.
"It's done. Youyou, look, uncle's craftsmanship is so clever? I came to the mirror and looked carefully. The double hanging ring was exquisite and small, and there was a little hair scattered behind my head. It was loosely tied with silver ribbon, making my little face more and more pink. Well, it's really better than Lan Ying's craftsmanship. How about it?" I nodded repeatedly: "It turns out that Ayou can still be so beautiful."
The emperor's uncle seemed to be emotionally infected by me and laughed. Lord Weng is so beautiful that he looks like your majesty's direct princess. General Manager Qin spoke up. Well, this flattery is not a folk. Although the princess and the Weng Lord are one word apart, they are far from different. Well, there is indeed Princess Fan Yi. I don't want the emperor's uncle to agree.
"Your Majesty, Yan Yun and Tang Zhuo met." Hurry up." After a while, two men in Xuanjia walked into the inner room and saluted. A Yan Yun who I just met in the morning. The other one is a little older, with fair skin and handsome facial features. It should be Tang Zhuo. Er, these two people are black and white in the story of milk.
"Can it be done?"
"I have done as you told me."
"Good. There is a reward for everything."
"I dare not make contributions to the responsibilities of others."
"And retreat."
Wait for people to retreat, the emperor's uncle looked back and patted me on the shoulder: "Youyou, at night, uncle invited you to watch the play." "Lefu Jizi?" I blinked my eyes. No, it's more than several times more wonderful than that.
The rain really stopped soon after the next day. I followed the emperor's uncle out of the door and went to the palace. This time, at my strong request, the emperor's uncle ordered someone to prepare a separate for me. The heavy rain stopped, the fog had not yet dissipated, and the road was full of broken vegetation. I think it's because the morning ban has not been lifted, and there are few people along the way.
The Night Tour Palace is built by the Taiye Pool. It is said that it is specially used for entertaining guests. Although it is adjacent to Weiyang, it is not as solemn.
From afar, the pavilions and pavilions are towering. After the chase, the emperor's uncle was still holding my hand. His hands were still cold, but his face was much more relieved.
As the palace people sang loudly, we walked into the hall and spoke quietly. Most of the people in the hall did not know, but they were all gorgeous clothes. My eyes suddenly found Duguhong. He was kneeling under the chief. Today, he was not dressed in red. A snow-blue straight suit made him look a little childish, which added a little nobleness. Because I stood next to the emperor's uncle, he could only look at me quietly, but his eyes were full of crystal.
Two benches are set up side by side. In the middle is the position of the emperor's uncle. On the left side, a graceful woman is already sitting, with rosy cheeks and full of smiles. Today, she seems to be particularly proud. It was the first day I entered the palace that asked me to call her grandmother's empress dowager. The emperor's uncle bowed his head to her: "The Empress Dowager arrived early."
I hurriedly bowed behind him. The Empress Dowager saluted and looked up and down at me: "At this time, it seems to be very different from that day."
For a long time, Fang taught me to get up and called me to sit down. I weighed a little and consciously went to the last banquet, and my hand was suddenly dragged down. The emperor's uncle's left hand was empty and his lips were coughing fiercely. I hurriedly put his back and rested less. He gasped lightly: "I'm still a little uncomfortable. Let Youyou sit down with me." The Empress Dowager nodded and said with concern: "Take care of the emperor's dragon body." Naturally. Thank you, Empress Dowager." After a long interaction of mother and son's filial piety, I, who was closest to them, was thrilled all over for some reason.
So I followed the emperor's uncle to the throne very flamboyantly, and the palace people quickly put a small couple between the two seats for me. After sitting down, the emperor's uncle ordered everyone to get up and sit down. At that time, the bells rang, the sound of palace music, and the palace attendants entered the tray and served all kinds of delicious food.
I sat on the top and looked around: Afu and Duguhong sat side by side. Today, she is wearing a lake blue train, with a little thin powder, and it is even more charming. Her first position is vacant, and the middle rank closest to the chief is also vacant. It seems that the prince and Princess Anyue were not present. Afu and others are headed by several rows of young girls, who should be the sons of important ministers who went to the palace to study. On that day, several people they saw in the water pavilion were all present, and the daughter of the Zhao family in sandalwood clothes was whispering with others.
Opposite them, er, are the emperor's uncle's harem ladies. In the absence of the queen, the top one should be the famous virtuous concubine.
She wears a dark satin coat with dark red butterfly patterns, her hair tied into a cloud bun, three golden hairpins with various gemstones, and begonia flowers on her forehead. Such a gorgeous dress sets off her beauty just right. Although the emperor's uncle's harem is rare, there are more than a dozen people. There are also one or two people who are better than her in the past, but unfortunately, there is no one who knows how to dress like her. At this time, I accidentally met her eyes and touched them, but her eyes made me feel like looking at flowers in the fog, which was very strange.
"Why hasn't Adi arrived yet?" The emperor's uncle opened his mouth, which was obviously to the virtuous concubine. Your Majesty, I heard that the eldest princess played the piano all night yesterday, so that she was so unhappy that she sent someone to ask for leave today. Nonsense. Are all the people she serves a rice bucket? Why do you think that the emperor's uncle's temper seems to be aroused by his children?
The virtuous concubine suddenly left the table and knelt down: "My concubine is incompetent. As a concubine's mother, I failed to do my duty. Please forgive me." After saying that, he raised his head slightly and looked at the head with a pair of water-cutting pupils. Yeah, retreat as progress. Sure enough, "Get up, Ah Mu, you don't have to blame yourself so harshly. It's not easy for you to assist in the affairs of the harem. I also know Adi's character. Hey, you can persuade him a little in the future.
The emperor's uncle got up and helped himself. Mu Xianfei seemed to have soft legs and took his arm and wanted to get close to his arms. Unexpectedly, the emperor's uncle suddenly coughed and covered her lips. Mu Xianfei stood unsteadily and almost fell to the ground.
The people who were secretly watching the show were laughing at this. However, she seemed to be unaware of it. She quickly took out a silk handkerchief and handed it to the emperor's uncle, anxiously concerned: "Your Majesty, how can it be so serious?"
"It doesn't matter, just sit down."
The emperor's uncle returned to the table, and the Empress Dowager turned her head and asked, "The emperor's illness seems to be extremely difficult to cure." This sounded like a happy disaster. If the Empress Dowager is not worried, I am in my prime, and some minor illness will not be difficult." Oh? Minor illness? The emperor, don't avoid medical treatment." I save myself."
"Your Majesty, the music and dance workshop is ready to stop, can it be passed on?" General Manager Qin, who had disappeared since entering the hall, knelt under the hall and asked for instructions. Wait a minute, I still have something to announce." Nuo. Hearing this, the hall was quiet. What should be? Seeing that the daughter of the Zhao family seems to be particularly focused, is it possible that the eldest princess and General Yan are close to good things?
"I want to accept Han You, the daughter of the Marquis of Ruyang, as a daughter of Chang'an."
"Boom..." One sentence made my ears buzz. The hall also exploded.
I was stunned, and General Manager Qin hurried forward to help me: "Princess, thank you for your kindness." Under his guidance, I walked to the front of the hall, bent my knees, pressed my right hand with my left hand, arched to the ground, and my head slowly to the ground. I said loudly, "Thank you, Lord."
"Free of courtesy." I stood up and was still a little confused. In the future, I will love and get along well with your brothers and sisters. "Afu" the emperor's uncle turned his head and called.
Afu knelt beside me: "Father, Afu knows that she must regard Sister Ayou as her own sister in the future." Good. Let's all get up." The emperor's uncle seems to be very satisfied.
I wanted to go back to my seat. Afu touched my elbow and looked sideways at her. She called sweetly, "Princess sister."
"Afu?"
"Nothing, just get familiar with it." Then he didn't look at me sitting down. I followed her figure and saw Dugu Hong, and the little boy was also looking at me. He was stunned for a moment and pulled a big grimace on me.
I couldn't help laughing, and the quarrel that day completely disappeared at this moment.
