The Beloved Imperial Consort - Chapter 389
[389. Chapter 389 Willingness]
In the spring of Zhang He’s seventeenth year, the city of Shengjing was extraordinarily lively.
His Royal Highness, the newly-promoted household servant, Mr. Tong Shantong, was forced to walk unsteadily by a group of staff on the first day of his new appointment. He sat down at the entrance of the Juyuan Building, holding a wine jar and chanting words in his mouth. He looks like a gentleman, but he has a lot of power to initiate drunkenness. In the end, the people who went with him arranged to take him back to the house in a sedan chair, and the joke spread throughout the court the next day.
In addition, Master Chen, the head of the Honglu Temple, was obsessed with her aunt who was born in a brothel before and “suddenly died of a disease” before March. It was so absurd to find a prostitute from Huajie Liuxiang who had a three-point resemblance to the previous woman as the outer room. This matter was known by the wife of the family, and she deserved it because of the previous concubine. It was so hard to wait for her to meet the King of Hell, so how could there be another woman who disturbed the family.
This lady is also a shrewd, outside woman, she can’t handle it. He simply coaxed Lord Chen to carry the person into the house to be a concubine. Fortunately, although the expression of the man in the back was similar to that of the woman, his abilities were far from the same. However, after using the means a few times, Master Chen indifferent to her, and gradually let go of her hand.
The most lively thing was the marriage of a close servant of His Royal Highness, Lord Wei, yesterday. Marrying that woman, I heard that at the beginning, it was only the eldest girl beside Mu Liangdi who was most favored in the Eastern Palace. Later, it was released, and was valued by the old lady Shen of the Suzhou Poetry Society. To be supported by the old lady is tantamount to the sparrow leaping on the branch, and his worth has doubled.
Twenty-four are full of makeup and dowry, and everyone in Shengjing is envious. Immediately, Empress Liangdi rewarded the next sapphire statue of Guanyin, and then a set of furniture made of red sandalwood was even more valuable.
In recent days, the only person who can get married can beat this pomp and circumstance, only the royal guard of honor when the prince welcomes his marriage.
In the East Palace, Mu Xiyao rubbed her forehead and looked at the big girl in front of her, very headache. “You really don’t want to get married in this life?” How could this temper be more twisted than hers.
Huilan grabbed the handkerchief with panic in her eyes, “Master, the slaves have been by your side since childhood. In everything you tell the slaves, the slaves will point them where they are going. They are not as good as Molan. If I leave you, the slaves will not know where they will be in the future. How will my life go on? And when I go to an unfamiliar place, my heart is always in a panic, and I am not at ease.”
This has not yet been referred to as a marriage, so why is it so nervous. This is the first time I have mentioned marriage to her. “You don’t think Yan Chengzhou is good, because you’re afraid of his cold face. Change someone to take a good look, and you can always find someone you like.” Which maid doesn’t expect her master to give her a good family when she gets old. When it got to her head, she was so scared that her forehead was sweating. Seeing that she really didn’t want to, Mu Xiyao had to stop talking.
In this matter, you can’t just get it right. “Forget it, if you ever change your mind, don’t be ashamed and don’t dare to speak to your concubine.”
Zhao mama entered the house with the washed mountain chestnuts, and when the master and servant finished talking, Fang smiled and said. Something new in the backyard.
“Master, this morning, Mrs. Qi asked for Zhuge Liangdi’s Fushou Palace, but he was rejected.”
“You’re still arguing about ghosts?” I begged her, and then I begged the Zhuge Clan. No one in the Yonghe Palace is the master. She didn’t even have the guts to think about Su Shi’s current palace.
“Prince Concubine has already said something, if that person is talking nonsense again, she will go to be Su Liangdi’s company. Qi’s family has nothing to do, but she is crying and begging in court, hugging the Crown Princess’s legs and feet, kowtow and begging her to move into Yuzhao Palace, otherwise She couldn’t survive. She couldn’t stand the trouble, and the princess finally softened her heart, and she should go to the prince for grace.”
Soft heart? Mu Xiyao tasted a chestnut, which was very fresh and sweet. I will also send a few grains to the boss later.
Helian Minmin can soften her heart, and half of the maids in her courtyard can’t be replaced in two years. Qi Shi didn’t know what was going on with her, but she was finally forced to do anything, so she gritted her teeth and begged her.
“It’s better to move to Yuzhao Palace, but Zhang’s Changxin Palace is more peaceful. How about the new ones?” In addition to admitting Miss Zhuge’s family Zhuge Li, His Royal Highness, half a month later, there will also be Princess Li’an of the Western Jin Dynasty. Identity comes in. Beside him, Emperor Yuan Cheng pointed out three young and beautiful women, all of whom were the last talents. In addition to her Huiyi Palace, everything was as usual, and even Helian Minmin Palace had someone added.
“Everyone still follows the rules. But more or less, people have been asked everywhere to inquire about news. Especially if they ask a lot, it’s the Prince’s temperament.”
How is his temper? Mu Xiyao felt that the man’s temperament was hard and stinky. As for her preferences, she has to ask herself.
In the evening of the Yu family, Mu Yaonu pestered His Highness the Crown Prince and went to stroll in the front garden after dinner.
“What is it that makes Jiaojiao happy?” Zong Zhenglin held her small hand, gently rubbed the back of her hand with his thumb, and led him to the waterside pavilion by the lake.
The free hand hooked his sleeve robe, Mu Xiyao tilted her neck slightly, her expression very charming. “When the newcomer entered the palace, His Highness was still thinking of Jiaojiao, but he didn’t leave your heart and soul behind. The little girl didn’t cut people off, and she didn’t want to please concubine to please you. Let’s accompany you around the garden and listen to the ditty. Son, would you like to drink two more cups at night?”
Zong Zhenglin was wearing a navy blue uniform, with a bun on his head, only a small crown tied, looking a little less majestic than when he was wearing a python robe.
Thinking that she ordered the girl to come over to report the name of the dish every day, she added at the end, “Ms. Liangdi said, she is waiting for you in the room, and she will prepare the meal when you go back.” With such a cunning thing, where else can he go? go anywhere.
It was only after entering the water pavilion that she found that she had already arranged it properly, the incense was lightly burning inside, and there was a Yaoqin on the piano case. The four-cornered palace lanterns are bright, with jade pots and jade lamps placed on the table.
I thought she was in high spirits, and was willing to take the initiative to play a little tune to enjoy him. Unexpectedly, this woman didn’t stop walking, but she actually dragged him straight to the front of the Qin desk. She didn’t mean to sit down at all. Instead, she looked at him with anticipation, and the stars in her eyes were surprisingly bright.
“What are you doing?” Zong Zhenglin raised his eyebrows. He was disgusted by her puppy legs, but he really liked it in his heart.
Holding his arm and twisting, what he said made Zong Zhenglin change color slightly. “It’s the night when a man is in love with a concubine
, so why don’t you play music to make the concubine happy for a while?” That’s what the previous words meant. She went up and down the palace, and dared to point out that Zong Zhenglin played the song to be funny, so her whole body was full of courage.
However, she has a sweet mouth, and the use of “Lang’s love and concubine” is really good.
His eyelids drooped, blocking the expression in his eyes.
“Is this unwilling?” Seeing that his gaze fell on the Qin lightly, he seemed unmoved. Immediately, his face collapsed, his head lowered, and his toes rubbed against the ground under his skirt.
“I heard at the time of the draft that Shengjing is the best at rhythm and rhythm, and the fifth highness is the most skilled, and the sound of the Xiao is clear.” Seeing his eyes suddenly darkened by two points, his heart was overjoyed.
The stinky man is careful with his eyes, but it is still very useful occasionally.
Pretending to tilt his head, he looked at him secretly, carefully held his pinky finger, and shook his arm coquettishly. “Every time, the concubine plays the tune to entertain you. Why can’t I turn it around, the concubine promises not to laugh at you.” The
words stopped here, and they just stared at the person. Fingers poked at his arm from time to time, as if waiting impatiently, pouting in a fit of temper. “It was said to be hurt by a concubine, but she was so stingy. I met the Fifth Highness…”
Before he could finish speaking, the man closed his phoenix eyes slightly, and the cold gaze fell on her face, which made him swallow it back in fright. After two slaps, the little butt was beaten.
“Be honest.” Knowing that she was cunning and provoking him, he really couldn’t listen to the bastard spit out of her mouth. When encountering this person who is not afraid of him, he dares to provoke everywhere.
That’s right, since she entered the manor, he has always been happy. Fu Uehara had some taboos, she probably had never heard of it.
“Want to hear?” Stroking her eyebrows, Zong Zhenglin looked deeply into her eyes.
The person in front of him nodded without hesitation. “The concubine will be very happy to hear the song of Your Highness,”
she said, very happy. Forget it, call her a wish.
He hugged the person and sat on his lap, in this position, he raised his hand and made a tune.
Huh? The beginning of this is actually
– the ancient song “Liu Shang”.
Suddenly looking up. Under the lights, the curve of the man’s jaw was slightly cold, and the phoenix eyes that were looking down at her were full of brilliance and brilliance.
“This song, can it match Jiaojiao’s heart?” While talking to her, the note was a good one.
It’s not like Zong Zhengming’s lofty and noble. It is the gentleness of running water, and at his fingertips, it is also like the rapids and waterfalls of a mountain stream, and the splashing waves are full of strength.
A smile bloomed on his face, his body softly pressed against his chest, and his small arms wrapped around his lower back. Just hugging each other so intimately, whether or not he wanted to, has already responded to him with actions.
“Master.” The master and servant who were also eating in the rockery pavilion were suddenly disturbed by the sound of the piano. Looking down at the music, I found that there were lights lit in the waterside pavilion not far away. Outside, a few maids and old ladies were carrying lanterns and were several meters away, guarding from a distance.
“It’s His Royal Highness.” From this angle, you can see the silhouettes of the two. The little girl’s eyes were sharp, and she caught a glimpse of the man’s crown with Dongzhu on his head. Seeing the intimate posture of the two, the voice gradually decreased.
Seeing that the master only looked straight over, but the person stood motionless in the pavilion, the little maid was a little undecided. “Master, His Royal Highness is at the bottom, do you want to go over and ask for peace?”
This is such a good opportunity. In the past, it was difficult to meet His Highness in the harem.
“Be quiet.” He pulled her to sit down and took another look at the two figures in the waterfront. Zhuge Qu’s plain face was calm.
“Do you know the name of this song?”
The little girl named Red Scorpion shook her head, wondering what the master would use for her examination at this time.
Shaking the fan in his hand, Zhuge Yue was thoughtful. “The title of this song is “Flowering”. This was the song played when Mrs. Mu entered the palace audition.”
“Ah.” The little girl was stunned, and then quickly covered her mouth to cover her exclamation.
It is very embarrassing for the master to hold someone in his arms like this. Playing such a song again, I always feel that there is no deep meaning.
“Don’t disturb me at this time.” Sitting peacefully in the pavilion, the master and servant remained silent. Zhuge Yue remembered the coincidence when he was young, and when he heard about it by chance, he felt that it was very rare today.
She was still at home at that time, and she often watched her father and teacher play games. Once they mentioned how the academics of the royal highnesses in the palace were doing, the two of them complimented the fifth and sixth highnesses. Only at the end of the teacher, he sighed deeply, and sighed with great regret, if His Highness Sixth Highness had not suffered from that, and had given up the way of rhythm, I am afraid that his attainments would be no worse than His Highness Fifth.
“That thing” seems to be a little taboo.
Today he is willing to play the qin again, and there are only two possibilities when he thinks about it. The man either let go of the things in his mind, or there was something more important that made him willing to compromise.
The indifferent eyes flashed before his eyes on the day he welcomed the kiss, and then think about what he saw just now. Zhuge Yue didn’t need to think about it, he understood what he was doing today.
