Beauty on the side

Chapter 002 First Meeting 2

I shook my head with tears when I was told that I was wronged. I have never thought that life is hard. I like such a day, free and unrestrained. I didn't expect that my father-in-law would follow me, but now, if I don't go to the palace, my whole family will suffer.

My father stared at me and walked back and forth a few times. Suddenly, he patted the table and laughed horribly and said, "Okay, okay! You go to the palace. You are inside and we are outside. After saying that, his father quickly walked out of the door. I don't understand what my father means, let alone whether he wants me to go to the palace. My father left and came back at night. I heard the sound and got busy heating his food, but my father went into his room and couldn't answer me.

I didn't sleep well this night. The moonlight of the window was imprinted on my bedside, and the faint coolness touched my arm. As soon as I leave tomorrow, I will never see my father and brother again, let alone have the happiness of freedom. I couldn't help sighing. I don't know if the life in the red door can accommodate me, and what kind of ending I will be. I turned over and leaned against the wall, reached out and pulled up the quilt, and forced myself to sleep for a while.

The next day, I got up early, made some porridge for my father and brother, and then looked at the white silk clothes in the room. This dress is of good quality, pure white silk, with a few light flowers printed on it, which is very comfortable to touch. Today, I will also wear this dress to enter the palace with other beautiful women, and our fate will begin to turn around today.

After I put on my clothes, I turned around a few times, and the corners of my skirt floated up and fell very lightly. I almost forgot that I took the jade pendant on the head of the bed and hung it around my waist. I don't know the origin of this jade pendant. I took it with me when I woke up that day. Suddenly, I curled my head and saw my brother lying at the door looking at me. I stepped forward to lead him into the room and sit by the bed. I touched his head and said, "After my sister leaves, you should take good care of your father and don't let him be angry."

The younger brother pouted and said, "But my sister made my father generous."

I listened helplessly and smiled, "In a word, you have to grow up and don't be so naughty anymore."

My younger brother suddenly shed tears and pulled my sleeves and cried, "It's all Hongzhi who was naughty and hurt my sister to go to the palace."

I stroked the tears around his eyes with heartache and gently hugged him in my arms to comfort him. There was a rapid knock on the door, thinking that the people in the palace were coming. I turned my head and looked at the unmoved porridge on the table and knocked on my father's door. My father didn't open it, so I had to say through the door, "Dad, your daughter is gone. You have to take good care of yourself."

The old sobs came from the room, which made me sad. The people at the door couldn't wait and knocked more violently. I hurried to open the door. There stood several soldiers and a man like a father-in-law.

"Why is it so long!" Grandpa Xu said strangely.

I looked back at my father's door, but it was still closed. My brother ran to me crying. I closed the door cruelly, put on a covered hat, and stood behind a row dressed like me. The team began to walk forward, and my younger brother couldn't open the door. Listening to his "wow" crying gradually fade away, I became farther and farther away from home.

There is still a long way to the palace, and no one speaks on the way. Grandpa Xu thought we were walking slowly and urged us from time to time. Out of the town, I suddenly heard that I was going to get into the carriage in front of me. I was surprised. I thought I was going to go to the palace, but I didn't expect that there would be a carriage to pick me up.

"Thank you, Your Highness, King Qin, or it will be dark when you go to the palace!" I heard Euke Xu say with a smile. I looked up through the veil and looked ahead. Grandpa Xu shouted in front of him, and there was a man standing next to him. The veil fluttered gently in the wind. Although the man's appearance could not be seen clearly, the figure was heroic.

"Thank you, Your Highness King Qin." The woman opened her mouth in unison, and her voice was delicate and gentle. I only looked at the king of Qin and forgot to thank him. I couldn't help lowering my head immediately.

"Ha ha, you all work for the palace, that's what you should do." Elegant tone, slightly magnetic.

When it was our turn to get into the carriage, I lowered my head and followed the beautiful woman in front of me. I have never made a carriage since I was a child, and I was confused about how to get up. When it was my turn, I saw a person kneeling in front of the carriage. I thought that I was not going to step on someone else's back to get on the car, right? I can't make up my mind for a while.

"Hey, what's wrong with you? Hurry up!" When Grandpa Xu saw that I didn't get into the carriage and blocked the people behind me, he came forward to blame me.

"This..." I looked at the person kneeling on the ground and didn't dare to step on his feet. He stepped on his back and got on the car, which humiliated the man. I couldn't do this, but I had to do it again.

was hesitating, and someone beside him stretched out a hand: "I'll help you. Go up."

I was shocked that it was the king of Qin! I looked at him through the veil, and he smiled at me.

"Thank you, Your Highness." I blessed him and held his palm in Grandpa Xu's surprised eyes. His palm is very thick, and there are several prominent small pieces in his belly and palm. I heard that the king of Qin often fights with the army. The cocoon in his hand is proof of several years of achievements.

The palms of my hands suddenly tightened, and I looked down at the person in front of me. The white veil covered my eyes and his face. I nodded to him, kicked his back gently, put his palm on the carriage, and sat down in the seat next to me. The curtain of the carriage was lowered by the driver. I glanced at the corner of the curtain and saw his pale robe tremble slightly and leave.

After a while, the driver's whip always heard the sound of the driver's whip, and the car vibrated, and the carriage drove slowly. I sat quietly in it, holding my hand without saying anything. There were three other beautiful women in the car, and everyone was quiet. After a long time, the carriage was still very quiet. I really felt a little bored and slightly lifted the curtain sideways. Today is the beginning of summer. The weather is very sunny in the morning. The sky is high and blue, and the clouds are also white and beautiful. Many fresh and elegant flowers bloom along the road, and white butterflies fly around in the wild flowers.

"Huh? Isn't that His Royal Highness the King of Qin?" The girl next to me shouted with joy, and I gently opened my veil and looked behind the car window. The King of Qin did not notice my behavior. He was sitting on a big brown horse, looking up at the distant sky slightly and slowly following the team.

"Where? Let me see."

I was squeezed aside by the two beautiful women sitting opposite me. They leaned their heads against the car window and looked back, saying a lot of words of appreciation. From their words, I know that the King of Qin is the second prince today. He made contributions to the Tang Dynasty and was awarded the title of King of Qin. This time he came back from the battlefield and happened to meet the maid of honor, so he came together.

In a distraction, a scolding suddenly came from the window: "What are you doing! Give me peace!"

The two beautiful women immediately returned to their seats. I also sat down and reached out to put the curtain. I still looked at the king of Qin. He was just attracted by the scolding of the soldiers. I only looked at him briefly and suddenly panicked. The soldiers in the window stared fiercely inside. I hurriedly put the curtain and blocked the uncomfortable sight.

The carriage was quiet again, but not long after, a beautiful woman opposite her bumped into the other one who had just looked outside with her. Her voice was very sweet. She said, "Your Highness the King of Qin is so beautiful. I don't know if the emperor is so handsome.

"When you enter the palace, you should have a chance to see the emperor. If you get a night's favor, I'm afraid you will be blessed!" The other covered his lips and giggled.

"My name is Gu Nian'er. What's your name? We should take more care of each other in the future!"

"My name is Zhang Meiyi." The people next to her stopped laughing and said.

I also said, "My name is Mo Xiran. Just call me Xiran."

All three of them said their names, but only the one next to me hasn't spoken yet. We can't help looking at her and waiting for her to answer. Li Qian. The ethereal voice made her look in a plain silk shirt more refined. I took a closer look at her. Her figure was very thin, and her waist was so thin that she was afraid that she would break with a twist.

After a few words of greeting each other, we gradually calmed down.

Maybe I'm thinking about my future! I don't know if the beautiful women in the carriages on this road are as quiet as ours. Maybe some people will want to get the emperor's favor and be rich for a lifetime; some people will want to get a steward position in the palace; and perhaps there may be a more stubborn beauty who is free and wants to escape from the palace. Maybe some people think like me, just want to be safe in the palace. After entering the deep palace, fate is dominated by the highest person. People always die, but they should try to die later.

The deep palace is sinister, and many things in the palace are spread among the people coming and going in private. If the daughter is selected as the maid of honor and fails to get ahead in the palace, she will have no chance to see her family in this life and can only die silently in the palace. I thought of my elderly father and young brother again, and I couldn't help but feel depressed and sad.

The team is still driving, and the sky is getting clear. About three hours later, the carriage stopped with the shouting of the coachman outside. Thinking of arriving at the palace, the people in the car quickly tidyed up their clothes and veils and sat upright. The curtain of the car was lifted, but this time, no one knelt on the ground and only put a low stool on the ground. I smiled and got out of the car first.

At this time, the carriage was already in the palace, and fifteen people lined up to follow Grandpa Xu to the road between the two high walls. I looked around and saw no longer the shadow of the King of Qin. I couldn't help laughing at myself. The team slowly walked a hundred meters on the road and turned a few corners to a large open space. The edge of the open space was full of flowers and plants, but there was not a grain of mud, all of which were paved with stone slabs.

Xi Gonggong said: "All women who enter the palace start from picking women, first go to the court to live and learn court culture, etiquette and rules. Only those who can insist on reporting for a week and pass the exam can they get a primary promotion."

The court is the beginning of this trance.

Surrounded by the palm-sized sky, it is difficult to get in and out. Occasionally, a few red leaves flew in from the outside, which are beautiful but fragile.
