Like Pearl and Jade - Chapter 58

On the bustling street, an unassuming little sedan stopped at the corner of the street, a small courtyard near the street opened a door, and a woman wearing a gauze hat entered the door, and the small door closed again.

“Miss Sima.” Qilian, who was sitting in the pavilion, stood up and bowed to Sima Xiang outside the pavilion. “It’s courteous now.”

Sima Xiang looked at the man with cold eyes, took off the gauze hat and let Baomei wait outside, then walked to the stone table in the pavilion, where a set of tea set was placed, one of the cups was already filled with hot tea, breathing white plume : “Adult is so elegant.”

“Jia Ke is at the door and can only be a vassal underneath,” Qi Lian poured a cup of tea and put his hands in front of Sima Xiang.

Sima Xiang took the tea cup and looked down, but there was no entrance. Instead, he put it back on the table: “Sir Qilian has been invited several times, I don’t know what’s the matter?”

“Jiu Wen Sima girl fame, longing for her heart, so she cheated on several occasions,” Qi Lian invited Sima Xiang to sit down, waited for her to sit down, only to sit down with a robe, “Sima girl can go to the appointment today , Rejoicing in my heart. ”

“It is worthy of being able to be a prime minister at a young age,” Sima Xiang sneered, then sinking his face, “Ming people don’t tell secret words, Master Qilian has anything to do, just say it.”

If Qi Lian didn’t mention the death of her mother in the letter, she would not have ventured out today.

“When was Sima so suffocated?” Qi Lian took a teacup and took a long sip, smiling, “However, if you invite the girl to come today, there is really something to discuss.”

Sima Xiang raised his eyelids without speaking.

Seeing her reaction, Qi Lian didn’t take it seriously, and said bluntly: “I heard that Sima is expected to enter the palace, but it’s a pity that Gu’s family was terrible, and it broke the girl’s good deeds?”

In this scene, Sima Xiang was very funny, and mocked his lips: “Master Qilian is very capable of speaking.”

“Say nice words to the beauty, it’s called respect,” Qi Lian said with a smile, and Taohua’s eyes were a little bit of teasing / amusement, “If Sima is not so beautiful, you don’t have to dig a hollow to talk about it. ”

Sima Xiang chuckled and didn’t take Qilian’s words in his heart. How beautiful she is, she doesn’t have to be flattered by the man in front of her.

“The beauty of the empress lady in the palace is not as good as the girl’s, but it’s a pity that the little emperor didn’t know the fun and appreciate the beautiful lady. I feel uncomfortable for the girl,” Qi Lian sighed. One place is comparable to you. ”

“Adult Qilian is well-informed, and it must be known that the Queen Mother is a profound person who was praised by the real person of Izumo,” Sima Xiang looked calm, and was not affected by the shallow provocation of Qilian. “Gu’s The woman is the queen, but destiny. ”

“Fate?” Qi Lian sneered, “Will a person like Sima believe this?”

Sima Xiang chuckled, and her beautiful eyes circulated: “What if you believe or not?”

“It’s a girl from the Sima family,” Qi Lian clapped. “I wonder if the girl from the Sima family wants to get rid of this kind of life now?”

Sima Xiang looked up at him when he heard the words, but said nothing.

She now lives in the uncle ’s house, which seems to be the same as when the cousin did not leave the cabinet, but she can feel that the aunt is not particularly fond of herself, but what about this, she just wants to rely on the big room to raise her Identity only.

Life is harder now than …

“I don’t quite understand what Master Qilian said,” Sima Xiang stood up and looked down at Qilian Road. “It’s not early, I will leave the little girl.”

After he finished speaking, he turned around and left without waiting for Qilian’s reaction.

Qi Lian smiled and watched her leave. Only when she could no longer see her figure, a servant stood up and said: “Master, this young lady of the Sima family seems unwilling to cooperate with us.”

“No,” Qi Lian lifted the teacup to the corner of her lips and smiled. “She is an ambitious woman with a ruthless heart and hot hands. Such a woman, even if she is excited about something, will not be revealed immediately. come out.”

“Fortunately, she did not become a queen, otherwise the Emperor Dafeng had such a woman as a helper, wouldn’t it be of no benefit to me?” The servant said with emotion, “This also gives you an assistant.

Qi Lian turned the cup in his hand and ignored the servant’s words.

It’s just that Feng Chao is now the queen …

He frowned, and he seemed to see nothing special. He only said that he had a good character and was a good person.

At the feast of the palace that day, the queen did not have any special performances. It was only when Posenge was about to marry her daughter to her brother-in-law. However, the aristocrats of the Feng Dynasty have always been like this, and it is normal for the queen to be angry.

“Maybe this emperor likes this kind of simple and harmless little girl,” Qi Lian put down the teacup and said with a sneer. “It’s just that there are many women like this. The so-called empress is affectionate, how long can it last?”

“Where did you go today?” Zheng looked at Sima Xiang who came back from the outside, looked at her from head to toe, and then pointed to the chair next to her finger. “You sit first, I have something to tell you . ”

“Yes,” Sima Xiang lowered her eyebrows to Zheng Fuli, then sat down on the chair.

“Today, the Qian family came to the door to ask for his sister-in-law’s eldest son. I did not immediately agree to come down,” Zheng hesitated for a moment. “Although the Qian family is only a second-class family, but the family style is right, there are few people. , You can think about it. ”

What Zheng did not say clearly is that the current situation of Sima Xiang can only be high or low, like the Qian family, it is indeed quite good.

Sima Xiang froze for a moment, and recalled that it took a long time to remember who the eldest son of Qian Jia’s sister-in-law. This person is of ordinary appearance, and he is very unremarkable among the sons and daughters of the capital family. If it is not for her good memory, she may not even remember his appearance.

Although she was reluctant in her heart, she did not dare to show half a point, but just said: “Thank you Aunt for worrying about me, I will think about it.”

“Well.” Zheng nodded, her eyes fell on her shoes, and there was a little dirt on her shoes, and she was dissatisfied, but she didn’t intend to ask more, “You are tired from walking outside today, go back to the yard to rest Right. ”

Sima Xiang’s face was slightly stiff and he stood up and bowed his knees to Zheng’s fortune: “Yes, auntie.”

Zheng Sima’s brows frowned only after Sima Xiang left. Although the niece had always acted peacefully, she always felt uneasy in her heart.

“Mrs. Miss and Grandpa are here.” A servant came to report.

When Zheng heard this, he immediately smiled and smiled, but said in his mouth: “I only came back a few days ago to visit, how come again, not afraid of others gossiping.”

“That’s because the young lady and her uncle are filial,” her maternal grandmother laughed. “If the young lady and the uncle heard this, wouldn’t it be uncomfortable?”

The Zheng family was even happier by the dowry grandmother, and he hurriedly ordered the next man to greet the lady and aunt.

Not far from the main court, Sima Xiang heard the laughter from the main court and looked back, just to see Sima Ling and a young man coming together, the gesture was extremely intimate.

“Girl?” Baomei whispered, “Miss Tang and her uncle came back to visit.”

“Since this is the case, I should go to see you.” Sima Xiang managed the shirt, squeezing the danger out of her face, and turned and walked back to the main court.

Sima Ling spent most of her day at her mother’s house before she reluctantly boarded the carriage back to her husband’s house. Seeing her like this, Shen Qinghe whispered, “Ling’er doesn’t have to be like this. I’ll take you home to see you next time.

“Thank you, husband.” Sima Ling smiled with red eyes, leaning on his shoulder, “I embarrass you.”

“As your husband, I should make you happy.” Shen Qinghe gently hugged her shoulder and said in silence for a moment, “Although the gentleman should not be right and wrong, but things involve you and the Yue family, I have to do it. Once wicked. ”

Sima Ling felt stiff, thinking what was happening in North Korea and quickly asked, “What’s wrong?”

Upon seeing this, Shen Qinghe calmed her with a smile: “You don’t have to be nervous, it’s just a trivial matter. It’s … your cousin doesn’t feel very good.”

“You said Xiaoxiang?” Sima Ling hesitated, “What did she do?”

“No, it’s just my intuition,” Shen Qinghe smiled, “Well, you just treat me as nonsense.” Although Sima Xiang is a rare beauty, but he saw her at first glance, not amazingly. An indescribable conflict.

Perhaps he liked Linger’s eyes more, so he didn’t consciously hate the other person’s eyes.

Although he said so, Sima Ling remembered this in his heart. She knew her husband’s temperament, and would not easily say that others were not. Since this mouth was opened, there was something wrong with her.

Above the hall, Jin Yang looked coldly at the following civil servants fighting each other and waited until they were almost quarreling before Jin Yang said: “The two Qing families made sense, but the border soldiers guarded the territory for the country. Condemned in three words, isn’t it to make the soldier cold? ”

“Emperor Shengming!” One of the civil servants acted immediately, but the other looked a little unsightly.

“Whether right or wrong, I have to check it first and then talk about it,” Jin Yang played with the sachet around his waist. Where is the calendar? ”

“Secretary waits for fear.” The minister who was facing up was not a fool. Naturally, he heard that the emperor was not very happy, so he bowed to sin.

Jin Yang was too lazy to watch them play, and directly said: “I have called Wei Ting and Zhao Jin into Beijing to face Sheng, so I don’t have to worry about this matter.”

The officials of the Sima line were a little stunned. The emperor said this was a secret message. Otherwise, how many people did they know?

No, someone must know!

Sima Hongchao looked at the two people around him, Zhang Zhonghan was surprised, Li Guangji was also blank, and secretly cursed, acting so good, why not go to the stage to do acting?

In the next dynasty, Jin Yang first went to Yu Study to deal with some of the breaks. Seeing that it was almost noon, he put down Yu Bi and got up to go out.

“Your Majesty,” Bai Xian raised an umbrella, “It’s raining outside.”

Looking up, the ground was really wet by rain. Although the rain was not heavy, it was very dense. Jin Marting put his hands behind his back, “Go, go to Kangquan Palace.”

“Yes.”

Bai Xian cautiously held an umbrella, He Ming walked on the side, shielding Jin Yang from the wind and rain, and dared not let a trace of rain float on Jin Yang.

When passing by the bamboo forest outside Luanhe Palace, a woman’s voice came suddenly. The voice was so small that it was only so small that people could hear her seemingly hum a song.

The tone of the song is simple, but it is very pleasant. Bai Xian came out of Cheng Wang Mansion with Jin Martingale, so he heard that this is a folk minor in Jinzhou.

When Jin Yang heard the song, he stopped and said expressionlessly: “Come here and see who is singing in the forest.”

“Yes.” The two eunuchs in blue quickly walked into the bamboo forest, and soon came out with a lady in green clothing.

“Slaughter-in-law meets your majesty, long live majesty.” The maid girl bowed her head and blessed Zhao Jin martyrly, a slight rain fell on her hair, wet her hair, and even the head rope was a little listless, it looked very pitiful .

“Look up.” Jin Yang said coldly.

The lady in the green dress slowly looked up and saw her willow eyebrows, apricot eyes, and cherry lips. I saw pity.

“You only sang in Jinzhou’s minor key?” Jin Yang’s expression was still indifferent, as if the other party’s pitiful appearance did not make him move.

“Yes, Your Majesty,” the Green Lady Palace shook even more. “The slave-maid thought that there was no one in the forest, so she forgot to show her for a while, and asked Her Majesty to forgive her sins.” White and tender.

Bai Xian glanced blankly at the maiden, her eyelids pulled down.

“Where are you on duty?” Jin Yang’s eyes were more indifferent.

“Avoid it, the slave-servant is the person who is still on the food board.” The lady in the green-clothed palace looked up timidly, her gaze fell on Jin Yang’s waist, and she quickly lowered it again. The little girl was full of gestures.

Jin Yang said indifferently: “The maid can’t sing and dance easily. Have the eunuchs of this kind of palace regulations and food bureaus ever taught you?” After that, she stepped on the bluestone plate and left without returning.

Bai Xian held up the umbrella and immediately followed, without looking at the maiden who continued to kneel on the ground.

He Mingju looked down at the trembling maiden who was kneeling on the ground, and bent down and smiled: “My maiden like you, our family has seen so much, if the sparrow wants to become a phoenix, it also depends on whether the real dragon wants to kneel? Since you like kneeling , Kneel. “After that, he chuckled and chased in the direction of Yu Jia’s departure.

The woman in the Green Palace knelt pale and knelt on the ground, and no one in the past dared to look at her more.

Gu Rujiu was talking to the Empress Zhou about what she had read not long ago. When Jin Yang came in, he stood up and greeted him: “Your Majesty, has it been rained?”

“Relax, Bai Xian and He Ming have always been attentive while serving,” Jin Yang took Gu Rujiu’s hand to the front of Zhou Tai, and paid a courtesy to Empress Zhou. “Son is late, let the mother’s mother wait for a long time.”

“You’re busy with government affairs. It’s late. What’s the point?” Empress Zhou smiled and let the couple sit down. “We don’t have to pay attention to these things from our family. Let’s prepare a meal.”

“Yes.” Jin Yang smiled at Gu Rujiu and said to Queen Mother Zhou again, “What delicious food did the mother prepare today?”

Empress Zhou laughed and scolded: “You can’t be hungry from left to right.”

Gu Rujiu looked at the mother and son’s exchanges with a smile, happy to watch the lively side.

After finishing lunch, Jin Yang went to see the officials of the household ministry, so he left early, and Gu Rujiu sat here for the most part of the empress before he got up and said goodbye.

After Gu Rujiu left, Aunt Liu said: “The Queen Mother, when the Emperor came up today, there was a mistress who thought she shouldn’t, and she is still kneeling.”

“What’s the reaction of the emperor?” Zhou Tai asked with a blank expression behind her.

“The emperor doesn’t seem to be very happy,” Aunt Liu thought for a moment. “When the queen’s mother returns to Zichen Hall, she will definitely meet the court lady who is kneeling on the ground. How can this be good?”

“There is nothing wrong with this kind of thinking maid. Today is not the first nor the last one. She will meet this kind of thing sooner or later,” said Queen Zhou. “It is better to let her do it than to mourn the family Dispose of yourself. ”

Jin Yang deliberately let this maid kneel at the intersection, doesn’t it mean that?

Gu Rujiu walked very slowly. She held an umbrella and walked on Qingshi Road, feeling that her mood was exceptionally calm. Even when she saw a green-dressed lady kneeling on the ground, her mood was not destroyed.

The lady in green clothing kneeled on the ground, her knees had already lost consciousness. She felt that her body was cold. The rain falling on her body seemed to penetrate the flesh, making her bones cold.

She didn’t know how long she had been kneeling. When a pair of pearl shoes embroidered with auspicious clouds appeared in front of her, she froze for a while before reacting.

She looked up slowly, and she saw the skirt embroidered with phoenix patterns, and immediately dared not look up again: “The slave-servant has seen the queen mother.”

To her disappointment, the queen didn’t speak, and none of the palace attendants behind the queen’s mother spoke.

She began to be afraid again. Did the Queen Mother already know that she intended to seduce the Queen?

Gu Rujiu really didn’t know why the court lady was kneeling here, and she was still kneeling on the intersection beside Luan and Gong. She looked at the maiden quietly, although she couldn’t see her face clearly, but she cut her shoulders, thin waist and snow skin, which showed that she was a very rare and charming beauty.

“Look up.” She spoke lightly, and then saw a pale white melon seed face.

If she is really a beauty, even her woman can’t help but feel compassionate.

Qiu Luo and Bao Lv behind Gu Rujiu had fallen into their faces. Apart from His Majesty, who would dare to let the court lady kneel at the intersection outside Luan and Gong. As long as you think about it, you will know what kind of thoughts this maid of the court had, and it made your majesty angry.

“What a beautiful woman.” Gu Rujiu naturally thought of what was going on. She reached up and lifted the chin of the Green Lady, and the skin touched was delicate and smooth, which was a special thing.

“Who sent you in?” Gu Rujiu looked at the maiden with a smile. “This palace is very interested in the people behind you.”

“Maid forgive sins, slave-servant is the servant of the food court, and was punished for crashing into the Holy Drive, begging the girl to forgive her sins.”

Wiping her fingers with a handkerchief, Gu Rujiu looked at the palace girl’s head with cold eyes: “The entire harem knows that this palace has always been a good talker.” She turned to Qiu Luo, “Qiu Luo, please ask Grandpa Bai, This palace wants to know what just happened. ”

“Yes, Niang Niang.” Qiu Luo glared and knelt down on the green-clothed maid before turning away.

In the Imperial Study Room, Jin Yang heard Qiu Luo begging for advice, so she put down her hand and let her in.

“Slave maid sees your majesty,” Qiu Luojing respectfully honoured the Zhaojin marting, and then explained his intention.

After Jin Yang heard it, he nodded and asked Bai Xian to follow Qiuluo out.

After Bai Xian and Qiu Luo went out, Jin Yang smiled a little. Thinking of long-term anger for himself, he felt his mood was particularly good.

As for the Green Lady, Her Majesty Delong said that he did n’t even remember the other person ’s face? It seems that the eyes that are like the three-pointed shape of a long time are a little bright, and the others are not good enough.

“Princess Bai,” Qiu Luo said with a smile, “The mother-in-law is already a little angry. Don’t wait for the oath, and if the mother-in-law punishes you, I can’t afford it.”

“Miss Qiuluo is assured that as long as the mother asks, our family will know all the words.” Bai Xiandao said, “Don’t say the mother, your majesty is very dissatisfied with this maid.”

The smile on Qiu Luo’s face deepened a little: “There will be a father-in-law.”

“Don’t dare, dare not, to do things for your majesty and the mother-in-law, that is our duty.”

“Ma’am, Qiuluo and Grandpa Bai are here.” Baolu held an umbrella for Gu Rujiu. When Qiuluo came, he reminded in a small voice.

Gu Rujiu didn’t look back, but looking at the maiden who was kneeling on the ground here, this maiden knew at first glance that she had passed it by heart, otherwise she would have such a figure and delicate skin.

No matter how beautiful the maid is, she will not have a pair of delicate and smooth hands, unless she usually doesn’t do much at all.

But is it possible for a disciplined maid to do nothing?

“Take people to Luanhe Palace, this palace has to ask questions slowly.” When Bai Xian came, Gu Rujiu said, “Call the **** and the court lady of the Shangshi Bureau.”

“Yes.” Bai Xian thought, fearing that the queen’s mother was really angry this time.

The woman in Green Palace wanted to speak, and her mouth was covered by two eunuchs, dragging her towards Luanhe Palace like a sack.

Gu Rujiu slowly wiped the corners of his mouth and followed.

The Luanhe Palace is much warmer than the outside, but the Green Palace Lady feels that it is colder and more terrifying than outside.

The Queen Mingming didn’t do anything at all, she didn’t say anything, just walked quietly on the first drink of tea, but she just felt that she couldn’t even breathe.

“There are two taboos in this palace,” Gu Rujiu lowered his teacup blankly. “One is family, and the other is my man.”

The woman in the Green Palace was terrified. Does the queen regard the emperor as her own? !

This is really terrible and ridiculous.
