Jin Yang finally knew that when a person was too happy, he was speechless.
He looked at the girl in front of him, and said after a long time: "For a long time, I am very happy that you can promise me my marriage today."
Gu Rujiu felt a little guilty in the bottom of her heart, because she couldn't get an equal share of the friendship she paid. So the more serious Jin Yang is, the less reliable she is.
"Your Majesty, I ..." Gu Rujiu opened his mouth just to speak, but was stopped by Jin Yang.
He took her hand carefully, as if afraid of Tang Tujia, and only dared to hold it in vain, not daring to use too much force: "I have been very happy to marry me for a long time." .
Covering the hand on the back of his left hand, Gu Rujiu's right hand patted Jin Yang's hand across the handkerchief: "Your Majesty, I understand."
Jin Yang smiled when he heard the words. He put a little pressure on his hand and wrapped Gu Rujiu's hand in his palm. They have a long time to come, and he still has many opportunities.
Bai Xian looked at the unruly movements between His Majesty and the Lord of Changyan County, and buried his head lower, but his heart was firm.
It is actually a good thing for him to be the queen of Changyan County. Not to mention anything, at least the master of Changyan County is somewhat familiar with him, which is better than other family girls entering the palace.
He Ming was more shocked than Bai Xian, and even brought a little surprise on his face. He knew that His Majesty had been very good to the Lord of Changyan County, and she was thinking of her good things everywhere. But he thought it was only because the Lord of Changyan County was loved by the Queen Mother that Her Majesty deliberately treated her well. How could Her Majesty treat the Lord of Changyan County as a man or woman?
It is no wonder that the tea sent by the Lord of Changyan County dared not to hesitate, and never claimed to be the owner of Changyan County.
Thinking that he had inadvertently offended the Lord of Changyan County, He Ming felt regret for a while, knowing that His Majesty thought so deeply about the Lord of Changyan County, why would he make such a mistake.
He turned his head and glanced at Bai Xian. He was still strange before. The old fox in front of Changyan County Master looked like an obedient grandson. It turned out that he had seen through this layer and hurried to dress up in front of the future Emperor. Be clever.
Feeling he lost, He Ming was more alert to Bai Xian. He finally climbed to this position, but he couldn't let the old fox Bai Xian it back.
Not long after Gu Rujiu and Jin Yang sat in the pavilion, the sky suddenly darkened, and the wind was violent, and they looked like they were about to rain.
"Your Majesty, it's time to change, let's go back." Gu Rujiu saw the wind blowing the bamboo leaves, remembering that Jin Yang's body was not raining, and said, "I will come with you to drink tea tomorrow."
"It's good to remember to speak for a long time," Jin Yang stood up with a smile, walked to Gu Rujiu's side, and shielded her from the strong wind. "Let's go."
Gu Rujiu is a little speechless, can't he remember anything other than drinking tea?
It's a pity that Heavenly Father doesn't make beauty, and just after they walked out of the pavilion, the raindrops crackled down.
"Oh," Gu Rujiu wiped the raindrops from his forehead and turned his head to look at the beautiful young man in the Jinyuyuguan beside him. He also ignored the manners and grabbed his sleeve. "Your Majesty, come with me."
Jin Yang looked at Gu Rujiu, who was eager to run, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, holding her hand in the backhand, and pulling her towards the Luan and Gong trot.
Da da da.
Seeing that His Majesty was running in front like the Changyan County master and the child, Bai Xian put his umbrella in the hand of the behind him, and he also chased him up. On the way, he deliberately confused himself. some.
As soon as the two of them ran under the eaves of Luanhe Palace, the heavy rain poured down, and they hit the ground with a splash of water.
Gu Rujiu smiled while holding his stomach: "Fortunately we run fast, or it will be raining."
"Fortunately, your reaction is fast, otherwise such a big wind and rain, if we are still in the pavilion, we will definitely get wet." Jin Yang took out the handkerchief, bowed his head and carefully wiped off the rain on Gu Chejiu's cheeks.
Jin Yang ’s movement was very light, and Gu Rujiu ’s cheeks were slightly itchy. She lowered her head slightly uncomfortably, avoiding his gentle eyes, and put her handkerchief into Jin Yang ’s hand: "Your Majesty also wiped herself Wipe it. "
"Okay." Jin Yang put away his handkerchief and looked down at the veil stuffed by Rujiu. The veil is very clean, and the soft cotton cloth is very comfortable on the hand. There is a flower embroidered in the corner of the veil, but it is embroidered a little, and it is not beautiful.
Feel free to wipe it on his face, Jin Yang put this handkerchief on himself, glanced at the palace that has no master: "Here it has been repaired almost, long time to see what else needs to be repaired?"
Gu Rujiu raised his head and saw that the pattern of Feifengxiangyun was carved on the eaves.
Bai Xian and He Ming bowed forward and pushed open a door behind them.
This is the back door of Luanhe Palace, but it is just the back door, which has been done with extreme style and exquisiteness.
Gu Rujiu turned his head, looked at the wide open door behind him, and then looked sideways at the expectant Jin Marting, and stepped into the door.
The apse is a bit quiet because no one is living, but because the windows are open, the furnishings in the house are all newly made, so it will not be deserted. Gu Rujiu noticed that many objects here are very auspicious, and the style is what I like on weekdays. Even a chair is the style I used to grow up from.
These things are all prepared according to his own hobbies and habits, His Majesty ...
Gu Rujiu turned back and looked at the young emperor standing behind him. He opened his mouth for a long while and then said softly: "Your Majesty, how long have you prepared here?"
"This place has been under repair since last spring, and the objects and decorations in it have only been prepared this year," Jin Yang reached out and touched a tracing aquarium on the cabinet and smiled. "Here I have asked them to follow your best I like to arrange it, but you mostly live in Houfu. I may not have considered many places. If you have any dissatisfaction, just ask and I will let them change it. "
Gu Rujiu shook his head, walked to the window, and saw the beads of orange trees outside the window.
"It's good here," Gu Rujiu turned back to Jin Marting with a big smile, "Your Majesty, I like it very much."
Seeing her laugh, Jin Yang couldn't help but laugh: "You just like it."
Gu Rujiu stared at the smile on his face, and his heart was soft.
In the Kangquan Palace, the queen mother sat in front of the window, slowly dropped the book in her hand while watching the pouring rain outside the window.
"The queen mother, the rain outside is so heavy, and the slave-maid is a little worried about your majesty and the county master. Do you want to send someone to pick them up?" Aunt Liu looked out of the window worriedly.
"No," Empress Zhou shook her head and turned a page of the book. "There are so many rooms in the palace. Is there no place for them to hide from the rain?"
When Aunt Liu saw it, she didn't talk much anymore and retreated silently.
After the rain stopped, His Majesty and Changyan County Master returned to Kangquan Palace. Aunt Liu saw their clothes were neat and they were wearing the same clothes as before. The last worry in my heart also dropped.
During the dinner, Jin Yang suddenly said to Bai Xian of the dish: "This master of sauce duck tongue county likes it, you move to her."
Gu Rujiu raised his head and smiled at him, and the two dimples suddenly floated.
When Jin Yang saw this smile, his ears suddenly turned red, and he couldn't even notice anything he had eaten with chopsticks.
Empress Zhou glanced at the interaction of the two juniors with a smile, taking the soup brought by Aunt Liu and drinking it slowly.
As an elder, sometimes my eyes are better.
That night, Gu Rujiu slept peacefully and seemed to have a sweet dream. Although she had forgotten the content of the dream the next morning when she woke up, it did not affect her good mood.
As soon as she used her breakfast, Jin Yang asked Bai Xian to send some novel gadgets for her to play with, and because he wanted to go up, he could not come by himself.
He poked his shaking head doll, watched his head dangling, Gu Rujiu put it down with a smile, and then said to Bai Xian: "If there is a father-in-law to take this trip, is your breakfast available today?
She heard that Jin Yang always had an appetite when she woke up in the morning, and most of the time she filled her stomach with half a bowl of porridge.
"Your Majesty woke up this morning and was in a particularly good mood. Not only did she use a bowl of porridge, she also used two pieces of golden silk cake and a plate of side dishes," Bai Xian replied with a smile. "This is His Majesty for nearly a month, The best appetite ever. "
After hearing this, Gu Rujiu smiled again on his face, and then got up and took a jar out of the inner room: "Your Majesty's appetite is not open on weekdays. Occasionally, I have a big drink. I worry that his stomach will not be able to bear it. This hawthorn tea It ’s a folk gadget that can be appetizing and digestive. You can take it back and let your majesty try to drink it.
Bai Xian took over the jar with both hands and said a few sweet words before leaving Kangquan Palace with the "Xie Li" given by Gu Rujiu.
After returning to Qiankun Palace for a while, His Majesty went down. Bai Xian waited for him to change the crowned dragon robe, and whispered: "Your Majesty, you let the slaves send the gadgets the county master liked very much, and also let the slaves bring Xie Lilai."
"Let you bring something for a long time?" Jin Yang looked at Bai Xian with a good mood.
Bai Xian took out the white porcelain blue and white pot and presented it to Jin Yang. Jin Yang took the jar to open it and smiled and said, "Only she can dare to send me these valuable things."
"This world belongs to your majesty. What precious items do you have?" Bai Xian turned around and took out the tea cup from the tray brought up by the maid, and placed it on the royal case. The master of Fangcai County asked the slave-servant how much you used for breakfast, and the slave-servant said it as soon as she was happy. After the county-owner heard it, lest you overeat and hurt your stomach, so the slave-servant specially made the hawthorn tea for you. . "
After speaking, Bai Xian knelt in front of Jin Yang: "Slave maid has no intention to reveal your hobby your majesty, please also forgive your sins."
"If you are talking to others, I will naturally convict you, but ..." Jin Yang took the tea cup and took a sip of hawthorn tea, which was sour and astringent. Not someone else, I forgive you for your innocence. "
Bai Xian immediately thanked: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
He Ming's dismissive lip in the corner, got cheap and sold well, shameless old fox!
In the morning, I drank a large cup of hawthorn tea. During lunch, Jin Yang's appetite was particularly good. In the past, I always felt that the greasy meat dishes also became delicious. After finishing lunch, he had just picked up the zigzag, remembering that he had said for a long time that he should not read a book, not only hurting his eyes but also hurting his eyes, so he put the zigzag back again, and then began a walk after dinner.
Scattered and scattered, I accidentally reached Kangquan Palace. Then I sat in the Kangquan Palace for more than half an hour before I got up and went back to the palace to deal with political affairs.
It took a lot of time to go back and forth in this way, but it was very efficient to deal with the concert. Before the dinner, Jin Yang finished the concert.
"Your Majesty, is there a meal?" He Ming saw His Majesty put down the pen, and then stepped forward and asked softly.
Rubbing his forehead, Jin Yang looked at the sky outside the window, "Let them put the meal to Kangquan Palace, and I will use it with my mother for dinner today."
The old Bai Xian, who was on the side, looked at He Ming and scolded in his heart. This was indifferent. There was the Lord of Changyan County in Kangquan Palace. His Majesty could find a reason to pass.
On the Kangquan Palace side, Empress Zhou heard that Yushan should be placed here. She was not surprised at all. She smiled and said to Gu Rujiu: "It seems that the emperor still likes my meals here."
Knowing that the Queen Mother was deliberately making fun of herself, Gu Rujiu just tilted her head and smiled firmly, and refused to speak.
Sure enough, in the next two days, Jin Marting had a meal every day at the Kangquan Palace and spent one or two hours in the Kangquan Palace every day.
On the day Gu Rujiu was going to return to his house, Jin Yang came to Kangquan Palace early in the morning, and then sent Gu Rujiu to the carriage.
"Long for a long time," Jin Yang knew that the sister and sister would go back today and they would have to hold a ceremony and give a gift, and he can also raise his relatives to Gu's family, "You need to take care after returning."
"Your Majesty is the same." Gu Rujiu bowed his knee to Jin Marting and smiled, "I hope that the next time you see your majesty, your majesty is more robust than now."
Jin Yang smiled and put a golden nanmu box in Gu Rujiu's hand: "I have thought for a long time, and I don't know what gift to send to celebrate you and the 笄. Thinking about it, only this safe jade pendant means the best. "
Gu Rujiu held the box and smiled at Zhao Jinyang.
"Get on the carriage, sir and master must be looking forward to your return." Jin Yang helped her into the carriage and smiled as the curtain of the carriage was put down, the horse's hoof pulled on the carriage stepped on, and the bell on the carriage hung The bell rang.
"Your Majesty," the curtain that had been pulled up again lifted up, and behind the curtain, there was a long smile with a smile, "Sister-in-law Houjun Jiaxin."
The curtain was lowered again, and the carriage turned around and slowly left the palace.
Jin Yang stared at the direction of the carriage's departure, revealing a cloud-like smile.
After the carriage exited the palace, Gu Rujiu looked down at the box on his knee, hesitated for a moment, and opened the lid.
The box was covered with soft satin brocade. On the brocade was a thumb-sized milky white jade pendant. The jade pendant's workmanship was ordinary, but the jade's color was very good, and it could be seen that it was worn on the body and warmly raised.
Take out this piece of jade. The jade is tied with a red string. Some of it looks like a fish, and some looks like a drop of water. At first glance, Gu Rujiu liked it a little.
Putting Yu Pei closer to her, she saw that Yu Pei was still inscribed.
"Longevity is 100 years old, Kangping Letai."
Gu Rujiu read these eight words softly, and his heart moved slightly.
This is very much like the jade that the elders gave to the children. After many children have children, they are afraid that the children will not grow up safely, they will wear long life locks and other longevity jade, thinking that jade can hold the child's soul To lock the child's life.
Suddenly she thought of a possibility. She squeezed Yu Pei's hand and shook it. She took a deep breath and carefully put this piece of Yu Pei back into the box.
Every year in the capital, there are noble ladies and ceremonies held by the family, so what the second girl Gu family wants to do and ceremonial gifts is a common thing for most people in the capital. Regardless of whether the relationship with Gu's family is good or bad, they will give the gift, and everyone still has to do the things in the face.
Originally, everyone didn't take this gift seriously seriously. On the day of the gift ceremony, everyone saw the guest guests, the guests were Dafeng's female celebrities, and the lady who helped manage the guests was Mrs. Quanfu in Beijing. A little bit of emotion, Gu family invited these people to come, don't know how much favor it took?
In their view, although Gu's family has risen in the wind and water in recent years, the details are still inferior to those of Sima's big house and Li's family, but this time and the ceremony did not lose to Sima's big house girl. Gu Jia was usually silent and did a low-key job. They suddenly became so high-key this time and they were really not used to it.
When Princess Cheng came to Gu's house in a horse-drawn carriage, the carriage was already parked outside, almost on half a street.
She knew in her heart that this was no longer Jinzhou. Her mourning princess Cheng was not particularly in front of these capital families, so she did n’t let the people in the family drive away the carriage in front, but waited quietly. Take care of family arrangements.
"Mother, it's just a Hou Mansion, and we still have to wait," Jin Shuyi said displeasedly. "The people in the capital are really unruly."
"Come on now," Princess Cheng sighed, and her gorgeous eyes glared at her daughter. "You also know that this is Beijing, not Jingzhou. The rules of this place are greater than Jinzhou."
Jin Shuyi deflated his mouth, a little unhappy, but couldn't refute it.
In the past six months since arriving in Beijing, she has not realized the feeling of all other girls around her. The distinguished ladies in the capital have outstanding appearances and good conversation. No matter what they do, they can't make a single mistake. These people play tricks and eat better food than Jinzhou. She is the king of Wangfu County in the capital, but she is at a loss like a countryman.
Although these family ladies have always been polite when facing them, she can feel that these ladies do not welcome her, or simply look down on her. She is the lord of the magnificent palace. Why do the daughters of these ministers despise her? !
She was a little reluctant and wanted to be angry with these people, but in the face of these impeccable etiquette, she did not even feel angry.
Now, she dreams about bullying Jin Yang as a child every night, how proud she was at that time, and how regretful she is now. She was scared almost every day, fearing that Jin Yang would retaliate against her.
But after waiting for so long, no one in the palace embarrassed her. Instead, they made the family delicious and live well. The worries and fears in her heart finally disappeared bit by bit. What followed was unwillingness and resentment. But she was the king of the county, why was she not as precious as the daughters of these ministers?
Soon some people came over to arrange for them to get off the bus, and the two who received the mother and daughter were Hu's daughter-in-law, Hu Family. Hu treated them very politely, and was also considerate in manners. She could not pick out any rude places until Jin Shuyi sat down with Princess Cheng, and she did not react.
Sitting next to them were the two old county princesses. Princess Cheng politely talked a few words with the two county princesses. As for Jin Shuyi, she just buried her head and said nothing to drink tea.
Jin Shuyi raised her head when the ceremony officially started, and looked at the lord of Changyan County, which was rumored by the Queen Mother.
For the first time since she entered Beijing for half a year, she saw Gu Rujiu for the first time. In the past few gatherings, either Gu Rujiu was absent, or she was absent, but she had never been seen.
It looks like this. Except that the skin is softer and the hair is darker, it is not as good as the two girls in the Sima family. A pair of eyes is also clear and bright, but with these, can the queen mother and the emperor look at each other?
Gu Rujiu wore a long hair and waited for the guest of honor to speak to her before returning to the backyard to change into a red wide-sleeved skirt and combing her hair into a beautiful cross-hair.
"Girl, Jade Pei ..." Qiu Luo took a few maids to hold out several boxes, all of which contained jade pendants with excellent meanings.
"Take me the golden nanmu box in the lattice of the inner room." Gu Rujiu glanced over the boxes and shook his head.
"Yes," Qiu Luo put down the box in his hand and quickly walked into the inner room, holding the golden silk Phoebe box in front of Gu Rujiu.
She knew that this thing was given to the girl by the queen mother or the emperor, because other than the royal family, others would not easily use the box made of golden sapwood.
After the box was opened, Qiuluo was disappointed because what was inside was not a rare treasure seen in the world, but a jade with good quality but common.
Taking Yu Pei out of the box, Gu Rujiu put Yu Pei in the lotus pattern purse and hung it around his waist.
After dressing up, Gu Rujiu appeared again in front of the guests, and only after the guests thanked the guests, did they formally open their seats.
After the dishes were served, everyone was surprised again. Gu family really intends to be high-profile this time? These dishes are only served at a particularly important banquet. Although their second girl and gift are important, they are not so grand.
Everyone came and attended the ceremony with careless thought, and left Gu's house with full of doubts.
Princess Cheng had more concerns than everyone else. She was worried that Gu's family could not see the gift she gave. If she asked to come to the house in the future, would Gu's family help this.
Three days later, Mrs. Hu put on her death suit, brought the officials of the court and a lot of rare gifts, and knocked on the door of Gu's house.
