Chapter 30 Weisi Climbs to the Cloud

More than a dozen beautiful women lined up in a long line, standing in the open space outside the Qianyuan Hall, quietly waiting for the summons of the highest monarch in the palace. When he takes a look, the fate of his life will be changed, or mean, or honor and disgrace, just for this short moment.

"Ling Xiao, the daughter of Ling Guan, the governor of Phoenix Prefecture, met--"

The father-in-law's shrill voice dragged a long sentence, which made people's hearts tremble.

Ling Xiao took a deep breath, stepped forward, crossed the threshold, moved gently, and approached the person on the throne step by step.

She did not dare to look up and look closely. She only felt that the further forward she went, the stronger a sense of deterrent oppression. The steps became very heavy, and his breathing even became rapid, and his fingertips trembled slightly.

"Ling Xiao?" The voice above his head was low and magnetic, with a faint majesty. The emperor read these two words in his mouth, which seemed to be playful, but suddenly said, "Wei Si climbed to the top of the clouds and was romantic."

Hearing this, Ling Xiao felt awe-in. Is the young emperor talking about Ling Xiaohua climbing high branches and coveting fame and fortune?

Ling Xiao couldn't say whether she was happy or not. It would be good if she put down the sign, but after hearing this, she felt a little aggrieved. But no matter what, the emperor couldn't help but answer, but he couldn't think of how to answer for a moment.

The monarch is unfathomable. One word can't be wrong. She just doesn't want to go to the palace, but she doesn't want to die. But this should not be said, nor should it be refuted - how dare the emperor dare to contradict easily? But do you want her to acquiesce that she is that kind of person? No.

At this time, Ling Xiao's heart did not seem to be clear, but somehow he had already blurted out and said, "Go straight around the branches, there is still a root and level. If you don't say that the flowers are according to his tree hair, they will climb the red sun and fight for cultivation.

"What an arrogant woman." The voice of a soft and majestic woman came from above.

Ling Xiao just cared for how to deal with the emperor. In addition, he didn't dare to look up and didn't notice that there were others at all. This voice is very young. What's more, who else is the person who dares to speak like this beside the emperor besides the queen?

"Your Majesty, please forgive me." Ling Xiao knelt down quickly. In fact, as soon as those words came out, she regretted it. That's too bold.

"Look up." The emperor said leisurely, his voice was calm and he could not distinguish between joy and anger.

"The ugly face of the people's daughter may stain the eyes of the emperor." Ling Xiao said in fear, and his heart became more and more annoyed.

"It doesn't matter."

Ling Xiao knew that there was no way to avoid it, so he had to slowly raise his head, but his eyes drooped, with humility and respect.

A touch of surprise flashed in the emperor's eyes, and at the same time, there was a trace of doubt. He looked at her with great interest. The beautiful woman's cheeks were red, with the greenness of a girl, but it made people feel that there was a mature temperament that was faintly different from that of women of the same age.

The most important thing is that the corners of the woman's eyes and eyebrows have a sense of familiarity that he can't say. Naturally, as the son of heaven, how could he have met a little magistrate's daughter?

"Explain the poem you just said. If it's good, it's okay, if it's not good..." The emperor said half of it, and there was a smile in his mouth.

Ling Xiao heard this, but his whole body oozed a chill. Although the words were light, in this sentence, it may be the fate of her and the family.

At this point, she has no way out. If she says it, it's the water that spills out. Since she can't get it back, she has to explain it as the emperor said. Well, it's better to put her on the sign directly after her point of view is very different from that of the emperor. If so, Long Yan is furious... and can't do it.

Thinking of this, Ling Xiao gritted his teeth and risked it. He simply said loudly, "No one's birth can be chosen by himself. Ling Xiaohua's life is pitiful. She was born with nothing to settle down. She can only climb the bamboo fence, mountains and stones to live. This was not her will, but she was going to be criticized by the world, and even the women would cry for her.

Before hearing what the emperor said, Ling Xiao boldly continued: "The name of the people's daughter is the same. The name is given by her parents, and the people's women have no choice, so they can't judge the character of the people's women. What's more, the women feel that no matter what they look at, if they can change their perspective, everything will be different.

"Oh? Go on and say it." In the emperor's words, there was no sound of joy or anger.

"For example, Ling Xiao, in the eyes of some people, she is a climbing flower, and she just wants to climb to a high place and show off to the world. But the people's daughter feels that even if she is in such a difficult situation and her background is pitiful, she still retains Ling Yun's ambition and is not afraid of fate. Such a character..."

Ling Xiao thought about it for a moment, and then said carefully, "The people think it is worthy of admiration. She is just unwilling to be despised and has an upward heart, which is not wrong. The students all over the world study hard every day to get fame. Although it is the emperor's kindness to touch the world, everyone wants to make a contribution to the society, but after all, aren't they also working hard to realize their ambitions and ideals? What's more, Ling Xiaohua, with her own weak body, unremitting efforts and positive, isn't this spirit more worthy of the world's admiration?

"Your Majesty, this woman is very insightful."

To Ling Xiao's expectation, she actually heard the queen's praise. She was surprised for a moment and looked up.

At this moment, it is not too late, but the lamp has been put on the palm of the temple. From the throne to the door of the hall, there are two rows of large red candles, hundreds of them, fragrant, and the face of the queen seems to be hidden behind the faint cigarette. Everything made Ling Xiao feel so unreal.

Qianyuan Hall is grand and empty. The queen is so far away from her, and she can't see it really. She can only see that the queen's pearls and phoenix clothes are beautiful and dignified, and her eyebrows are very young, but she is also full of a mother's gentle and calm charm. Although she is slightly tired, she is still in momentum. About, this is the mother's world.

And the emperor wore a red gold crown on his head, and twelve white jade beads hung in front of him, covering the dragon's face, and he couldn't see his face clearly. No wonder the world is full of Tao, the king's power is unfathomable, and the joy and anger are not noticed by outsiders. Naturally, it is "extremely unfathomable".

At this time, the lanterns in the candles around him made a "beep" sound, as if to remind Ling Xiao's gaffe. She woke up, lowered her head and said, "Thank you, Queen, for your appreciation."

"Queen, you rarely praise others?" There was a slight smile in the emperor's words.

"Your Majesty, it is difficult to find a beautiful woman with both talent and appearance, and she is even more difficult to meet." The queen nodded to the emperor with a smile.

"Since the queen has said so, how can such a fragrant beauty be missed? Let her stay in the palace, but..." The emperor said, "The red sun is not so easy to climb."

With a "bang" in Ling Xiao's heart, his whole body suddenly felt like entering the ice cellar. After all, haven't you avoided it? He bowed and saluted, silently withdrew from the door and was listed.

When he came out of the hall, his heartbeat was still so fierce that he seemed to jump out of his throat. Crossing the high threshold, I only feel that the fate is very different between this entry and exit.

She was so confused that she didn't want to pay attention to anything else. She stood blankly and only felt that the sun was gradually setting. I don't know when, all the show girls in this class have finished driving. They listen to the guidance of the internal supervisor. Whether they are selected or not, they all kowtow to thank you, and then leave respectfully and orderly.

"Miss, how's it going?" Qingwu saw Ling Xiao come back, hurried forward and asked anxiously.

Ling Xiao just nodded in a dull way. Seeing this, Qingwu knew that he had been selected and couldn't help crying with joy.

"Why are you happier than your young lady?" A father-in-law came over and said.

Qing Wu quickly wiped away her tears and said, "Let my father-in-law laugh. I'm just happy for my young lady."

"You maid, you are very loyal." After his father-in-law finished speaking, he saluted Ling Xiao and said, "Master Ling, I am the only noble son. I wish Master Ling a blessing."

"Your father-in-law, please get up quickly. Ling Xiao is still a daughter of the people. Don't mess up the rules." Ling Xiaoxu held a hand and said humbly.

A trace of admiration flashed in Xiao Guizi's eyes and said, "Master Ling is a well-behaved, but you are already the person you want. In about two or three days, the title will come down. Therefore, I will call you 'little master', which is not beyond the time."

"Yes, Ling Xiao wrote it down." Ling Xiao nod his head slightly and winced at the blue fog.

Qingwu immediately took out a ingot and handed it to the little noble son, and said, "This is a little tea money. I hope your father-in-law can accept it."

Xiao Guizi did not shirk it. He took it generously and put it in his sleeve. Then, he smiled and said, "Little master, I'm going to take you to the residence of Feng Xiunu."

Ling Xiao and the two followed Xiao Guizi to Jiayin Palace.

"Congratulations, little master, for your grace." As soon as she entered, a maid of honor congratulated her. Ling Xiao did not hesitate and rewarded her one by one.

At this time, a middle-aged woman came. Although she was old, she was still beautiful. It seemed that she should be the maid in charge here.

"Little master, maidservant Xinyun, is the maid of the Jiayin Palace. The little masters have not been named yet, but they just live here temporarily, and they will have their own palace in two or three days, so this place is not very gorgeous and comfortable, and they can only wrong the little master. If there is any inconvenience, just tell the maidservant. What the maidservant can do, she will try her best to satisfy the young lady's meaning.

"Aunt Xinyun's words are serious. In this palace, even if it is not gorgeous, how much can it be? Ling Xiao was very happy to have the honor to come to Jiayin Palace. How can he talk about the word 'aggrieved'? Ling Xiao doesn't want to enter the palace anymore. At this moment, he has also entered. How to care about it in the future, but the things in front of him still have to be round.

"Master Ling really knows the general, and he must be a blessed person in the future." Xinyun said, "In the past few days, before the reward comes down, there will be special maids to guide the palace etiquette for the little masters. Although the little master is a lady, the outside is different from that in the palace. Therefore, I hope the little master can study hard so as not to make something wrong in the future to anger the emperor.

Although this is not very pleasant, and it seems unlucky to say such words at the beginning, Ling Xiao responded sincerely. People in the palace are all auspicious and will not say what they should not say for no reason. Naturally, it makes sense for Xinyun to say such words to her. Instead of regretting in the future, it's better to do it now. It's about your future and even your life.

Xin Yun took Ling Xiao to her residence and left. The master and servant tidyed up their belongings a little, and then sat down to rest and waited for the arrival of the aunt.

"Miss, if the old lady knew, I don't know how happy I would be." Qingwu helped Lingxiao pour a cup of tea, and his eyebrows curved.

Jiayin Palace, good news, the woman who lives here will soon become the emperor's woman. Well, the person she hasn't seen clearly, is she really the husband she will rely on for a lifetime from now on?

"Are you really going to compete with countless women for the man you have never met?" Li Ye's words seemed to hit her heart again.

No, I don't want it. This is not what I want. But at this point, what can I do?

If it is, if it is not so sharp in the hall just now, if it can be dull, if it is dressed more roughly, will the ending be different?

The loss and sadness in the bottom of my heart are spreading more and more, filling the whole heart.

In the past few days, the immature shadow of many years ago has appeared more and more.

No, Ling Xiao gritted her teeth and said to herself, from now on, her husband can only be the man who sits in the Qianyuan Hall today, who is superior and dominates the world. All she can think about is only that man, and there is no one else!

Perhaps, from the moment you set foot on the road to Beijing, there is no chance to turn back. From the moment he left without telling each other eight years ago, their world was destined to never intersect again. What's more, she doesn't know everything about him except that his name is Lin Feng. Even if she doesn't go to the palace, what can she do?

Continue to dwell on the past, just asking for torture. What's more, what a dangerous thing it is. If the emperor knows one day that his woman is thinking about other men, she will definitely die without a place.

"It's my son now. Sister Lin should have been selected, and I don't know what the result will be." Ling Xiao held his hand and said to himself.

"Does Miss Lin want to be selected or not?" Qingwu asked.
