Blessed

Chapter 84 Growing into a Handsome Man

When the concubine gave birth to the emperor, she was raised by her side for only a month, and then the empress dowager wanted to raise her by her side.The queen mother is barren, which is also very good to the emperor.Maybe it's because she didn't keep her by her side, the concubine didn't have that strong affection for the emperor, and because she lived in the imperial temple for more than ten years, she almost forgot about life in the palace.

The concubine's expression was a little dazed, as if she was recalling the time when she was in the palace, she said to the eunuch after a long while, "Eunuch Liu, Ai's family is old, and I really don't want to make trouble. Go back and tell the emperor that Ai's family will not return to the palace. Let him take good care of himself and tell him that he is doing very well, even better than his father."

Not to mention the things in Emperor Ruiwu's harem, but he is a good emperor who is diligent in governing and caring for the people.

Eunuch Liu bowed and replied, "I'm a slave." Then he said, "Madam Taifei, you don't know that the emperor really misses you all these years, always nagging the old slave, wanting to be filial by your side .”

The concubine said, "The Ai family knows that the emperor is a filial person, so it's good to have this heart. Well, you can take the fourth daughter of the Jiang family back to the mansion, and send a message to the emperor, the fourth girl's marriage is up to the Jiang family's decision." , don’t need a marriage from the emperor.”

She looked at the girl who grew up, and of course hoped that she would be fine. If the emperor bestowed a marriage, she would only find someone from a good family background. Maybe Concubine Mu was fooled into giving her to the third prince as a side concubine. Of course she would not If this kind of thing is allowed to happen, the girl she likes should find someone who will pamper and love her. She will not have to compete with others, and she will not have to look at her husband's face to live. No matter what, such a man may be hard to find, but she really wants to marry into a noble family. , that day must be difficult.

Eunuch Liu was taken aback, he probably didn't expect the concubine to say such a thing, "Ma'am, is this?"

The concubine said with a sullen face, "Just take my words to the emperor, well, I'm tired, you can take Miss Jiang Si back."

In the end, he even refused to see Jiang Yuzhu's face, and Eunuch Liu couldn't figure out what the concubine meant to Jiang Yuzhu. Could it be that after five years, Jiang Yuzhu still hasn't won the favor of the concubine?
There are not many jade beads, a few clothes, and an exquisite black jade bracelet with simple and simple patterns carved on it. This is a bracelet given to her by the empress dowager. Take it off your wrist for her.

The concubine refused to see her even for the last time. She knew the reason and was afraid of the sadness of parting.Yuzhu was sad and uncomfortable, hiding in the room with red eyes, waiting for a few urgings from Eunuch Liu outside before rubbing her eyes and leaving the room with her bag.

Eunuch Liu was a bit old, so naturally he would not go up the mountain alone, and there were many young eunuchs with him, who were carried by sedan chairs all the way down the mountain. He was a little embarrassed, and said to Yuzhu, "I am old, please be considerate of the county lord." .”

Yuzhu nodded, "Eunuch is too polite." Then she said to several young eunuchs, "It just rained the day before yesterday, and the ground is a bit slippery. Be careful when going down the mountain, and take good care of Eunuch."

The little eunuchs hurriedly said yes.

He is really a sensible child, Eunuch Liu thought, and he didn't even understand what the empress dowager meant.Such a girl, even he, an old eunuch who has been in the palace for decades, is happy. After spending five years with the concubine, how can the concubine not like her?But if you like it, why don't you let the emperor give you a marriage, that's a great honor.

Eunuch Liu sat on the sedan chair, glanced sideways at Jiang Yuzhu, and felt a thud in his heart. This little girl was really beautiful. He had been in the palace for decades, and he had never seen any concubine with such an appearance. Peony, gorgeous and unparalleled, with a jade smile and pearl fragrance, this kind of coquettishness is also mixed with the icy flesh of the apricot flower, shy and pure, ready to bloom.

With such an appearance, Eunuch Liu may have some understanding of the concubine's thoughts. If the emperor really bestowed a marriage and married into a wealthy family, he might be liked by her husband, but mothers-in-laws might not like it. appearance.

On the contrary, it is better to let the Jiang family find a suitable family by themselves, marry a daughter from a low family, and the mother-in-law does not dare to show too much embarrassment.

When you go down to the foot of the mountain, there will be eight BMW carriages in the palace waiting for you. Eunuch Liu asked Yuzhu to get on the carriage, "I will take the county king back to the mansion in this carriage, and the old slave will return to the palace. There are everything in the carriage." Yes, the county lord can do as he pleases."

Yuzhu nodded, "Thank you, Eunuch."

Eunuch Liu got into another carriage and left first. Next to the Cuigai Zhuying eight-horse BMW carriage stood two maidservants in bright yellow palace attire. They helped Yuzhu into the carriage and followed her in to serve her.

The eight BMW car of the two horses ran very smoothly. Yuzhu poured a cup of tea and held the plain light yellow glazed teacup in both hands. The warm touch came, and it was warm. She closed her eyes and rested, feeling a little excited in her heart. After five years , She is finally going home, to see her parents, grandparents, uncles and aunts, brothers and sisters.

The two palace maids sat on the small thongs at the corner of the carriage, and secretly looked at the county lord. They saw that she was wearing a crescent embroidered plum-colored gown, and her hair was as thick as silk, tied into a bun that girls often combed. The hair hangs down on the chest and back, soft and dazzling, lining the girl's skin like fine suet white jade.

The two maidservants couldn't help but paused for breath, lowered their heads, and after a while couldn't help but look at Yuzhu secretly.

It was a two-hour journey, and Yuzhu dozed off against the white peony palace brocade pillow on a blue background.

While sleeping in a daze, the carriage stopped suddenly, Yuzhu woke up sleepily, and asked in a daze, "What's wrong? But it's here?"

The little maid opened the curtain and looked, "If you go back to the county lord, you haven't reached the city yet, but you are still on the mountain road, because there is a carriage blocking you..."

Someone stopped the carriage?Yuzhu finally woke up, and opened the curtain to look. Sure enough, there was a black-painted carriage with a flat top in front of the carriage. She was stunned. She knew this carriage. It was Shen Xian's carriage. It was always this one, she had ridden it several times.

Yuzhu was thinking about why Big Brother Shen was here, when she saw a tall and straight figure getting off from the opposite carriage, dressed in a stone-blue silk dress and a black cape, it was Shen Xian, who had long since grown into a handsome young man man.Yuzhu was a little excited, at least she was the first relative she met, but no, she treated Shen Xian as a relative.

This man was tall and tall, with broad shoulders and narrow waist, and his usual stern face.

Yuzhu watched him walking towards her, maybe she was wondering why he was here just now, but now she should know that Big Brother Shen came to pick her up.She watched him walking steadily step by step, standing in front of the car curtain, face to face with her.She was sitting in the carriage with only half of her head sticking out, even so, he was still much taller than her, so she had to look up at him.

She was so excited, she couldn't see her teeth when she smiled, and shouted at Shen Xian happily, "Brother Shen, why are you here?"

Shen Xian looked down at her with a calm expression, and he said, "I happened to be in the palace when the emperor sent someone to pick you up in the morning, and the Hou's mansion didn't know about your return. Come pick you up."

I haven't seen him for a few years, and his voice has also changed a bit, becoming magnetic.The same is true for people, indifferent, dignified and majestic.

Yuzhu didn't think he was strange, and she was still the elder brother of the Shen family who was kind to her in indifference. She had a lot to say to him, so she invited Shen Xian to get on the carriage, "Why don't elder brother Shen come in the carriage, I happen to have a lot to say Tell Big Brother Shen."

"Go and sit by my side." Shen Xian was not used to other people's things.

Yuzhu also remembered, nodded, lowered the curtain and greeted the two little maids, telling them to go back to the palace first, and jump off the carriage with their bundles and skirts.Seeing this, Shen Xian stretched out his hand to hold her arm, and gave her a hand, and then reprimanded her when she landed safely, "Still so reckless." She was still the same little girl back then, but her appearance was shocking.

After landing on the ground, Yuzhu realized that his figure was really tall and tall, which made her even more petite.

The two walked up to the black-painted carriage with a flat top. Shen Xian helped Yuzhu to go up first, and then stepped on it.There are not many tricks in his carriage, but it is simple and clean. There are two small couches and a small desk. The two sat down facing each other. Yuzhu asked, "Brother Shen, how is Ah Mei now? It's been a long time since I saw you. miss her."

Shen Mei went up the mountain to visit her three months ago, probably couldn't stand the concubine's indifference, so she went down the mountain after a while.

"You don't have to worry about her, she's doing well in the mansion." Shen Xian replied flatly, took out an eight-treasure box from the hidden compartment and put it on the table, "There's food inside, eat first if you're hungry Some."

Yuzhu didn't eat much in the morning, she was a little hungry at the moment, she opened the box and saw all kinds of snacks inside, she stuffed a candied fruit into her mouth, the sweet taste melted from her taste buds, this candied fruit was better than those bought from outside The food is very delicious, presumably it was made by the cook of the Duke's mansion.

Shen Xian saw that she was still as greedy as she was when she was a child, and her expression was much softer, so she peeled a walnut for her.

"Then I'll go back and settle down later and then visit A ​​Mei." Yuzhu sat there, talking and chewing candied fruit, watching his well-articulated, slender fingers peeling walnuts, she found it very pleasing to the eye.Seeing him peeling a small handful of walnuts and pushing them all in front of her, he became embarrassed, "Brother Shen, eat some too."

It turned out to be the walnuts peeled for her, and her brothers like to do this kind of thing the most.

Shen Xian didn't eat these things, and watched Yuzhu eat the walnut kernels, melon seeds, peanuts, chestnuts, and pine nuts that he peeled out like a little squirrel. It felt like feeding a small pet.

I haven't seen her for five years. Taking advantage of the time when she was eating, Shen Xian looked at her carefully, her brows didn't change much, but the little girl opened her eyes, her eyes were picturesque, bright and charming, but there was still a trace of childishness.
