A Precious Pearl in the Imperial City

In the dead of night, Ming Jingzhou helped Shen to remove the hairpin: "Madam, have you been aggrieved by Jiuzhu in the palace a few days ago?"

Shen shook his head: "I saw that she was very happy when she came back, so I didn't ask too much, presumably getting along with Concubine Su was pretty good."

The imperial concubine has been favored for many years and is not easy to get along with. It is a certainty that Jiuzhu will marry into the palace of Chen. Instead, she hopes Jiuzhu will be liked by the imperial concubine.

"I don't know who is bewitched by the girl. I think Wang Chen is a rare good person in the world..."

"Maybe it's Concubine Su?" Shen walked to the bed and sat down, sighing in a low voice, "Jiuzhu has a simple personality. Concubine Su can let the emperor spoil her alone, and coaxing Jiuzhu is probably just a few words."

Speaking of this, Shen frowned slightly: "Your Majesty, is there really no room for relaxation?"

Ming Jingzhou tidyed up the quilt and lay flat on the bed with Shen Shi: "Qin Tianjian has already begun to calculate the auspicious day of the wedding, and there is no possibility of a turnaround for this matter."

"If it weren't for the rumors that Sun's girl was going boating with Qi Wang on the lake before she married King Chen, our family Jiuzhu would not have to marry that demon king." Parents are often unreasonable when it comes to protecting their children. of. The Shen family was reluctant to marry his daughter to Wang Chen, and even the Sun girl complained.

Knowing that the wife was angry, Ming Jingzhou didn't refute it. A smart man, whether he likes it or not, will never act as a reasonable gentleman when his wife complains to others, because the price will be very heavy.

Women are the best teachers who teach men to be able to bend and stretch.

Jiuzhu didn't know that her parents were lying in bed worrying about her marriage. She lay on the windowsill, looking up at the stars in the night sky, wondering what the two masters were doing right now?

Are you arguing about who should wash the dishes, or admiring the moon?

On the day she left, the sixth brother kept enough money, and the masters shouldn't be short of money to spend anymore.

"Miss." The Spring Equinox stood outside the window holding a lantern, and whispered to remind: "Autumn night is cool, you rest early, and tomorrow you will have to climb high and look far with your wife."

"Sister Vernal Equinox, don't worry, climbing is a trivial matter." Jiuzhu lifted his chin triumphantly: "Don't talk about climbing, even if it's climbing a tree, it's not a problem."

The Taoist temple she lives in is deep in the mountains and dense forests. When she is idle and doesn't want to study, she sneaks up to the top of the mountain to enjoy the sunrise and sunset, and listen to the sounds of birds.

"I know it will be difficult for the young lady to climb the mountain." Spring Equinox explained with a smile: "Go to bed early and look good, and there will be girls from other families when you climb up tomorrow. The young lady meets other ladies for the first time, and her complexion and appearance can't be lost to them. "

Jiuzhu rubbed his cheek. The people in Beijing are so motivated, so much attention is paid to climbing a mountain.

"Sister Vernal Equinox, it's so boring than to go." After sniffing, Jiuzhu pulled up the cloak he was wearing, making it a bit cold at night.

The Equinox laughed out loud, she put down the lantern, and reached out to help Jiuzhu tidy up her cloak: "Miss, you are the future Princess Chen. As long as you are there in the future, countless people will notice you."

"Does Wang Chen also lose face as long as I lose face?" Jiuzhu obediently stretched her neck long to facilitate the equinox tidying of her cloak.

The action of finishing the cloak at the vernal equinox paused slightly. She didn't know what Wang Chen looked like, but based on Wang Chen's comments in Beijing, I am afraid that she would not care what the young lady did.

The ridiculous prince who named the cricket "General Changsheng" and the dog "General Zhen'an" cares about being embarrassed or not?

"Sister Vernal Equinox, I will go to bed now, and you should go back to the room to rest soon." Jiuzhu retracted her head into the window, and before the vernal equinox reacted, she poked her head out again: "Have a good dream."

Vernal Equinox smiled and shook his head, thinking that such a good lady would soon marry Wang Chen, and she didn't know how much she would suffer, and the corners of her mouth dropped again.

Feixia Mountain is located to the east of the Royal Garden. Whenever Chongyang climbs high and looks into the distance, the royal family will guard here to protect the safety of climbers.

On this day, both aristocrats and common people can come here to climb up and see the scenery.

Ming's carriage stopped under Feixia Mountain, Jiuzhu touched the cornel sachet on her waist, and walked out of the carriage behind Shen.

At the foot of the mountain, some people used dogwood branches to make garlands and sold them, and others sold handkerchiefs and silk embroidered with dogwood, which was very lively.

The children gathered around the nobles' carriages to sell the cornel branches, and the nobles would not be stingy with the money, and would buy a few branches more or less. When the children got the money, they chanted a few auspicious words and left happily.

Jiuzhu also bought a few cornel bracelets and distributed them to the maids who followed the Shen family.

The red cornel fruit is faintly visible on the wrist and looks pretty.

Jiuzhu gently shook her wrist, a gust of wind blew, and the silk blew onto her face.

"I have seen His Royal Highness Qi Wang."

"Mrs. Shen doesn't need to be polite." Wang Qi smiled and gave a hand to the Shen family. He was born good-looking, and his smile was even more graceful: "Today the weather is good, the scenery is good, Madam Shen and Ling Qianjin can take your time. Enjoy the scenery."

Pulling down the drape that was blocking his face, Jiuzhu was too late to see what the person looked like, so he bowed his knees and bowed.

"The prince is right." Shen said with a smile: "The little girl has just returned to the capital, and the minister's wife also wants to show her more of the scenery of the capital. Your majesty governs the country, the country is prosperous, and the capital is full of scenery. She is curious about everything. , Made the prince laugh."

"A few of our brothers, only the fifth brother is the best at admiring scenery." King Qi cast his gaze on Jiuzhu: "Awaiting orders..."

The girl in a yellow tunic raised her head and looked at him, her eyes full of curiosity and innocence.

"The little girl has seen the prince and Mrs. Shen."

Wang Qi looked at the visitors, and slightly nodded: "Miss Sun."

Sun Caiyao was ashamed, and the king of Qi was blessed.

Jiuzhu looked at King Qi, and then at Miss Sun, who walked directly to this side after getting off the carriage, and suddenly understood that this is called "shame and half-closed eyebrows, I hope you know your concubine."

"The minister's wife is slow, go ahead, please forgive me, Lord and Miss Sun." Shen knows and knows that Wang Qi and Miss Sun Jia are unmarried couples, they have their own affectionate whispers, they are not decent here for outsiders.

"Madam, please feel free." Qi Wang smiled softly.

Sun Caiyao looked at Ming Jiuzhu's leaving back, biting the corner of her lips lightly, lowering her head to hide all emotions in her eyes.

"Mother." Jiuzhu held Shen's arm and whispered, "I think that Miss Sun's eyes are a little strange when looking at me."

The Shen sneered: "A few months ago, Your Majesty intentionally contributed to the marriage between Miss Sun Jia and Wang Chen, but it is a pity that Miss Sun Jia has long been in love with Wang Qi. How could your Majesty let a woman with someone else marry Wang Chen? With an idea, Miss Sun Jia made a kiss with Wang Qi."

"So that's it." Jiuzhu nodded suddenly.

"What do you think?" Shen looked at her daughter.

what idea?

Jiuzhu hesitated and said, "Miss Sun and King Qi... are good?"

Shen: "..."

She was wrong, she shouldn't have said this.

She should start thinking about how her daughter-in-law can not suffer the loss of her sister-in-law after her daughter has married into the royal family. This upright temperament must have followed her father.

Along the way, people came to talk with Shen from time to time, and almost everyone looked at her from head to toe with the eyes of rare objects.

If she can charge a fee, the money she earns can fill her purse.

After finally climbing to the pavilion on the mountainside, Shen and a few familiar ladies sat with a cup of tea and chatted with each other, while Jiu Zhu sat beside him with a smile and nodded. His heart was already like a sparrow on a tree branch and flew to the top of the mountain.

"My wife and I are drinking tea here. Go to the top of the mountain and help us pick some of the freshest cornel." Shen looked at Jiuzhu who was sitting obediently, but his feet flicked from time to time, and said with a smile: "Little girl Good physical strength, this matter is left to you."

"Okay." Jiuzhu stood up and blessed his body: "Mother and ladies wait a moment, Jiuzhu will come when they go."

After speaking, he trot out of the pavilion with his skirt.

Several ladies looked at Jiuzhu's leaving back, and said with emotion: "Ling Qianjin looks like a real sign."

The person who is going to marry is not ideal.

"Sisters are absurdly praised, she is still a child with temperament." Shen's mouth pursed and chuckled: "As an elder, I only hope that she is healthy and better than anything else."

The ladies also nodded. Which parents do not expect their children to be disease-free and everything goes well.

The equinox knew that her own lady could climb the mountain, but she never expected that the lady could climb so much. She sat on the ground out of breath, not even paying attention to her manners.

Looking at the delicate young lady, her face is not flushed or breathing, as if nothing happened.

"Sister Vernal Equinox, you sit and rest for a while, I'll go picking the cornel." Jiuzhu took off the drape hanging between her arms, put it in her hands, shook her head and sighed: "Sister Vernal Equinox, your body is too weak."

spring equinox:"……"

Miss, please recognize the fact that it's not that my body is weak, but that you are too strong!

The dogwood tree doesn't grow tall, and the red fruits hang on the branches, beautiful and conspicuous. Jiuzhu easily climbed the tree and picked the reddest and most beautiful dogwood branches.

"Little girl, it's you again."

Jiuzhu peeled off the branches and looked down. He was the Zipao young man who had seen him last time. Today he is wearing a black brocade robe with red stripes, and his face is like white jade.

He raised his head to look at Jiuzhu, and pointed to the cornel branch beside her: "Can you help me pick this branch off?"

"This branch?" Jiuzhu stretched out his hand and folded, only to hear a click, the branch with the thickness of the thumb was easily broken by her: "You stand farther, and I will throw it down for you."

Looking at the neatly broken cuts on the cornel branches, Chen Wang silently stepped back.

With a brush, the cornel branches hit the ground.

When the autumn wind came, the tree was swayed and it looked very dangerous. Wang Chen walked to the tree again: "Little girl, get down from the tree."

"What?" The wind blew the branches, but Jiuzhu didn't hear what the other party was saying, so she jumped down on the branches and patted the dust on her palms: "What did you just say?"

Chen Wang: "..."

Whose inattentive child, who is so awkward in doing things?

The wind stopped, and the voices of several men faintly heard.

"Miss Sun Jia has a good fate, and has made a kiss with His Royal Highness Qi Wang."

"It's unfortunate that the girl from the Ming family has been unlucky. She was raised in Lingzhou since she was a child. She was far away from her parents. She just went back to Beijing and decided to marry the King Chen. I heard that this lady hadn't been out for a full month since she returned to Beijing. Still failed to escape the fate of marrying Wang Chen."

"Let's rest, if you are heard by Wang Chen's people, you will be in trouble. Who doesn't know, Wang Chen will report it to you. It's very ruthless and unreasonable."

"laugh!"

"Humph!"

Wang Chen finished scoffing and looked at Jiuzhu who was beginning to roll up his sleeves: "Little girl, what are you humming?"

Jiuzhu continued to roll up his sleeves and walked in the direction of the sound.

"Hey!" Chen Wang stretched out his hand and grabbed the little girl's back collar: "What are you going to do?"

"fight!"
