The Legend of the Loved One

Chapter 70

Today is free, Song Chen came out early, sat in Funing Palace for a while, and came to Yufu Palace again in time for lunch.Seeing him coming in broad daylight, Chu Xue was very surprised, and hurriedly asked: "Why did the emperor come here suddenly, have you eaten yet?"

"Well, I came just smelling the smell of rice, is there any part for me?" He joked lightly.

The corners of her mouth were curved, and she hurriedly stretched out her hand to pull the person herself.

Seeing Xiao Le'er who was stretching her hands and kicking her legs in the small bed beside her, Song Chen was in a good mood, and immediately leaned down to tease her.And when she saw her father's face, Le'er was also in a good mood, first she gave a sweet smile, and then began to whine.

The father was even more joyful, and hastily stretched out his hand to put the little man into his arms.

The little person has grown eyesight now, he is not willing to lie down all the time, he is only satisfied if he is hugged upright, so the emperor responded to her request, and hugged him upright according to her wishes.

Le'er looked at her father upright, and felt that her father was really good-looking. Looking at her, she couldn't help drooling. Chu Xue hurriedly wiped it with a handkerchief, and smiled while wiping. Seeing that her mother smiled beautifully, Xiao The man laughed again, and grinned, revealing his pink gums.

The parents were so tender-hearted, they almost forgot to eat, until Ruyue gently reminded them, then handed Le'er to the wet nurse, and went to the table to eat.

Xiao Le'er was full of doubts, huh?Why did my father and mother suddenly ignore me?
After playing with the wet nurse for a while, the little man felt bored, and still wanted to find his mother. It happened that Chu Xue had also finished her meal, and when she heard her daughter's babbling, she got up and hugged her with a smile.

Returning to mother's arms again, Le'er was very satisfied, mother's body was fragrant, and father's voice was gentle, she played for a while, a little sleepy, and yawned again and again, the wet nurse hurried over Then, take the little man down and put him to sleep.

There were only two people left in the palace, Song Chen hugged her into his arms, thinking about what happened in Funing Palace just now, decided to tell her first.

He said: "In a few days, there may be a few newcomers in the harem."

Chu Xue, who was immersed in sweet satisfaction because of her daughter and husband just now, froze suddenly.

She also heard about the events of the previous court one after another. She knew that people had been admonishing him for the draft, but he hadn't expressed his opinion. She thought he was worrying about herself. Why didn't he?So soon, he is going to accept a concubine?

Sensing her silence, he asked, "What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"

She shook her head and said softly: "No, it's a happy event for the emperor to accept a concubine, and the concubines dare not."

There was obviously grievance in his voice, he lifted her chin, stared at her for a while, saw that she was struggling to squeeze and couldn't squeeze a smile, finally sighed, and said: "You really don't believe me? I promised myself Remember."

What he promised?

She also stared into his eyes, and finally remembered that on the way to Beijing last summer, before that waterfall, he had promised her that the rock would never change.

yes!The cattail grass is as tough as silk, and the rock has no transfer.

He looked at her with gentle and firm eyes, in which there was a slight accusation of not being trusted, but more of it was distressing, she paused in her heart, and suddenly felt that she should trust him.

Her sore heart calmed down instantly, she nodded, and leaned into his arms again, her eyes slightly wet.

"The concubine trusts the emperor."

There was a faint milk smell on her body, and it seemed to have the fragrance after bathing. He couldn't help being surprised, and asked, "Have you bathed?"

She smiled and nodded, "Well, this morning, Bao Le'er accidentally pissed all over her body, so I had to take a shower and change my clothes."

When he mentioned the villain in his heart, he also laughed, but after laughing, his hands started to move wildly.

She was startled, and hurriedly declined, "Your Majesty, it's daytime, it's noon..."

Before he could finish speaking, his gentle lips and tongue blocked her mouth. He tried his best to kiss the beauty until she was completely confused, and then he said in a hoarse voice: "It's free today, it's okay for us to rest for a while... ..."

On this day, in the bedroom of Yufu Palace, it is rare to think of the loving but shameful voice in the daytime.

It didn't take long before all the officials above rank four in Beijing who had young daughters received an invitation from Funing Palace.

It was stated in the invitation that the Empress Dowager will hold a flower viewing banquet in the imperial garden of the imperial palace in one month, and invite all the noble ladies of the right age who have not yet engaged to enter the palace to enjoy the flowers.

Unsurprisingly, Luo Shizhen's family, Minister of the Household Department, also received this invitation. Miss Luo Shu, who will turn 16 in a few months, is not yet engaged, and is on the list of being invited.

Luo Shu in her boudoir frowned and sat alone.

She really didn't want to enter the palace to attend the flower viewing feast.

Everyone can understand that the invitation from the palace this time is for appreciating flowers on the bright side, but it is actually a small-scale draft. Now there are only three female relatives in the harem. Once the noble daughter of any family is favored, It must be to enrich the harem.

Accompanying the emperor and becoming an imperial concubine may be the dream of many women in the world, but it is not Luo Shu's.She was born in a scholarly family, although she is not arrogant, she has a bit of ambition, she does not want to serve a husband with others, and bury her youth in that deep palace.What's more, now that everyone in the world knows that the emperor loves Concubine Yi, how confident are the women who are selected into the palace that they can win the Sacred Heart?

And the most important thing is that she, Luo Shu, already has a lover in her heart.

Luo Shu thought for a long time, then got up and went to her father's room to answer.

"Father, mother, my daughter doesn't want to enter the palace." The girl looked at her parents firmly without any hesitation.

Luo Shangshu sighed heavily, and said: "Where did your parents want you to go? But this is the Queen Mother's order, we can't refuse it!"

In this world, any parent who truly loves their children will not be willing to trade their children's life for their glory.

Mrs. Luo also frowned tightly, picked up the invitation and read it again, but suddenly her eyes lit up, and said: "The Empress Dowager Yizhi only said that girls who have not yet been engaged to enter the palace, we can make an appointment for Shu'er as soon as possible, so we Can't we avoid this?"

Luo Shu was startled when she heard the words, and raised her eyes to look at her parents, only to see her father thought for a while, then shook his head again, "However, a hastily settled marriage may not be a good thing for Shu'er! baby?"

Mrs. Luo hesitated to speak, and sighed for a long time, and did not make another sound.

But what the mother said just now gave the girl a glimmer of hope. She hesitated again and again, and finally made up her mind to speak, "Father, mother, in my daughter's heart, there is actually a person. If he can come to propose marriage, my daughter is willing..."

As a well-educated lady, it takes a lot of courage to say this frankly in front of her parents, but at this time, she no longer wants to hesitate, and she doesn't want to lose her lifelong happiness because of her temporary shyness and cowardice.

Hearing this at first, Master Luo was quite surprised, but Mrs. Luo was not too surprised. The mother took her daughter by the hand and asked softly, "But that Mr. Qin who works in the Jingwei Division?"

Luo Shu opened her eyes wide and looked at her mother in surprise. She never said, how could mother know?
Doesn't Mrs. Luo understand?

My daughter has never been very fond of excitement, but whenever there is a happy event in the Shen family, she will definitely go with her.If it is said that she likes to get along with her cousin Shen Ting, but the cousins ​​actually see each other from time to time, and as long as she goes to the Shen Mansion, Madam Luo can figure out who she will meet. thought.

It's just the Qin family...

Since she noticed her daughter's thoughts two years ago, she had inquired about Qin Yuan with her sister-in-law, that is, Qin Yuan's aunt, and knew that he had never been engaged, but what was the use of that? Over Luo Shu's thoughts, it has been two years, but there has been no movement from that family. Maybe, maybe Qin Yuan doesn't like his daughter?
But Mrs. Luo has always buried these thoughts in her heart, and she has never let her daughter know that she is confident that her daughter, regardless of her character and appearance, is the leader of the ladies in the capital. The Qin family has no movement, probably because the fate has not yet arrived. It's not that her daughter is not good enough.

Seeing that her mother had guessed what she was thinking, Luo Shu inevitably blushed a little. She was silent for a while before nodding slightly.

Mrs. Luo didn't want her daughter to enter the palace, and she didn't want her daughter to make a random marriage because of this matter and delay her life. Think about it, don't worry, we won't let you enter the palace."

The girl hesitated to speak, and after some hesitation, she finally nodded and left the room.

The girl who returned to the boudoir was still unable to calm down, she struggled several times after thinking about it, and finally made up her mind.

It was approaching noon that day, and Qin Yuan, who was still in the yamen, suddenly received a letter.

The handwriting in the letter is beautiful, it seems to be written by a woman, there are only a few words in it, and there is only one simple matter, someone wants to see him, and there is something important to discuss.

Qin Yuan couldn't help being puzzled. After thinking about it several times, he really couldn't think of anyone who wanted to see him, but despite his doubts, he still followed the letter, arrived at the designated place at the designated time, and went to the appointment.

It is a tea house.

There was a little maid waiting for him outside the door. Seeing him coming, the little maid saluted lightly and led him directly to a private room on the third floor without too much nonsense.

The maid gently opened the door for him, Qin Yuan paused, and finally stepped in steadily.

But the scene in front of him stunned him.

There was only one Tingting girl in the quiet room. Seeing him coming in, she suddenly got up from her seat, froze for a moment, and then saluted him.

The girl's face was flushed, she lowered her eyes and said softly, "Little girl Luo Shu, I have met Master Qin."

Qin Yuan still had some impressions of the girl in front of him, and now that he heard her name, he finally confirmed her identity.It has been nearly two years since the last formal meeting at his grandmother's house, the girl in front of him seemed to have grown a lot taller, and the blushing face in front of him at this moment made him a little at a loss for a while.

Qin Yuan coughed lightly, nodded slightly, and said, "Miss Luo invited me here today?"

Luo Shu was still blushing, but she answered yes frankly.

Such a girl doesn't seem to be able to meet a foreigner in private.

But she obviously did.

Qin Yuan was even more puzzled, and asked: "Then... I don't know why Miss invited me here?"

Luo Shu made this decision and reached this point with great determination. She also understood that she had to speak now. She sank, and finally raised her eyes to the handsome young man in front of her, and asked, "Little girl?" I do have something to ask... I heard that your lord has not yet engaged, so I don't know your lord, what do you think of my little girl?"
