Harem Pampered Beauty: Chen Xiangxue

Chapter 16

Murong Xue was sitting inside, her face was red, her teeth were white, and her eyes were picturesque.It seems that life is good, and there is no need to save it.

He frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"

She stretched out her hand and grabbed his sleeve, and said with a smile, "I need to find you." Seeing the familiar smile of the ghost, his brain began to ache spontaneously.

He whispered: "Let go."

"You make a written statement to prevent me from being selected." She put a piece of cloth and a box of lip balm that she had prepared a long time ago by his hand, looked at him eagerly, and grabbed his sleeve tightly with her small hands.

He was anxious and angry, and said in a deep voice: "Quickly let go."

"I'll let you write it down." She was like a stubborn puppy, with a brave determination in her eyes.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he didn't dare to fight with her, and he didn't dare to make any noise, so he gritted his teeth, dipped his fingers on his lips, wrote a few words hastily and handed it to her, and said viciously, "Let go."

She immediately let go of his sleeve, and smiled brightly like a flower, "Thank you, my lord, so I can feel at ease."

Yeluyan gritted his teeth angrily, but he still couldn't show any flaws. He lowered the curtain, pretended to call Yuan Chenglie, and ordered loudly: "Go and see if there is a doctor nearby, and call him quickly."

Yuan Chenglie understood, immediately got on his horse, and walked around the neighborhood.

All the beautiful girls knew that Murong Xue was ill, and now they heard that someone was sent to ask for a doctor, they just thought it was because she suddenly felt unwell again, no one knew that a scene of threats just happened in the carriage.

Yeluyan stood beside the carriage with a cold face, a tsunami in his heart, good little girl, wait and see how I deal with you in the future, dare to threaten the king.

After a while, Yuan Chenglie came back to report that the doctor was not found, and Yeluyan ordered to continue on the road.

Murong Xue was sitting in the carriage, holding the piece of cloth torn from the petticoat in her hand, happily looking at his handwriting, even though it was written with lip balm, it was still so beautiful.With this amulet, she finally felt at ease and no longer thought about running away.

A few days later, the group finally arrived at the southern suburbs of the capital.It was almost noon, and lunch was arranged at a post station outside Beijing.

When Murong Xue got off the carriage, she suddenly saw a familiar figure, which turned out to be her father, Murong Lin.She was so excited that she almost rushed over, but Murong Lin waved his hand from a distance, signaling her not to go forward.

She reluctantly took a few glances, followed everyone into the station.

The food was prepared quickly, she was unwilling to eat, thinking in her heart, since her father was waiting for her here, there must be some arrangements, there are so many people here, how could she sneak over and meet him.

Was anxious, suddenly Yuan Chenglie came to call her.

She put down her chopsticks excitedly, followed him to the stable behind the station, the person standing by the well was not her father, but Yeluyan.

Her heart skipped a beat, and her steps slowed down unknowingly.Although she could see him every day during this period, she never spoke a word to him again after being separated by many people.The same is true for him, occasionally his eyes fell on her, and he passed by, as if he was a stranger.

She guessed that he must be angry with her, so when she saw him at this moment, she immediately apologized with a smile on her face: "My lord, I had to do that day, you won't be angry with me, right?" She is clean and beautiful The apologetic, helpless, and thoughtful smile on his little face instantly aroused his anger again.What does she think of him?Unbelievable villain?

"What do you think?" He was as cold as ice, from his tone to his eyes, there was an aura that strangers should not enter, shoot and kill.

"I'm sorry, it's not that I don't believe you, I'm just afraid that you won't help me." She showed a rare pitiful and charming look, but unfortunately he turned a blind eye to it, and completely recovered the indifference and ruthlessness when he met her at the beginning.

"This is something from your father." He handed over a package.

"Thank you, my lord." Murong Xue opened the oiled paper, only to see a honey pill wrapped inside. "this is?"

"It's a dumb drug."

Startled, she stared at him with wide eyes.

"If you take this medicine, your throat will be ruined." He paused when he said this, "I will do what I say, and I have already figured out a way for you. As for whether to take this medicine, it is up to you to decide."

Murong Xue was stunned, she didn't expect that the idea he gave her was to ruin her voice.

"Don't you want to enter the palace? You are not afraid of death, you are willing to take your life, why, why are you reluctant to give up your voice?" Seeing her hesitation, he felt a little displeased, turned around and left.

"Yeluyan." She actually dared to call him by his first name, but for the first time, he didn't get angry, he just frowned and looked back at her.

With tears in her eyes, she looked at him stupidly, unable to say a thousand words.This acquaintance, whether it was a fate or a calamity, could not tell clearly, she wished that the current time could stop, even if it was in a stable with bad taste.

"Yeluyan." She read his name softly, her smile fluttering like a ray of light beside the clouds. "I haven't called your name yet. If I'm dumb, will you remember my voice?" She looked at him dazedly, her soft voice was like a ray of wind.

He glanced at her indifferently, but did not answer, that indifferent look in his eyes, as if her question was idiot, mentally retarded and inexplicable.

"Thank you." She was smiling, but there were a lot of tears in her eyes. "Do you remember that song I sang to you?"

He didn't answer, his silent eyes were calm.

"I sing very well, too, don't I?"

She really wanted to say a few more words to him, so that he could remember her voice.

He remained indifferent and silent.

The tears finally couldn't be held back and slipped out of the eyes.There is something to be given, and compared with the happiness of a lifetime, the voice is still a trivial matter.She raised the back of her hand, wiped away her tears, and smiled at him, "You still like me, right, so you find a way for me to prevent me from being selected."

She looked at him expectantly, thinking in her heart that even if he refused to admit it, as long as she showed a little affirmation in his eyes, she would feel that this crush was worth it.

However, without saying a word, he turned around and left.

She sometimes felt that she was really unlucky, and she fell in love with an indifferent man for the first time when she was in love.But thinking about it again, I felt that God was not mean to me. I met him before entering the palace, tasted what it was like to like someone, and also met a great savior. No matter how indifferent he was, he still helped her in the end.

She brought up some well water from the well, and swallowed the pill with the well water.

The well water is cool, from the throat to the heart.

"Yeluyan, Yeluyan," she whispered the name, trying to remember her own voice when she said the name. If you don't meet someone you like in the rest of your life, then these memories with him are enough Come to spend half your life.

He was standing in the corridor, and the wind was coming towards him and blowing behind him.No one had called his name for many years, and when he heard it suddenly, it was like a whisper in a dream.Her voice is very pleasant, soft and clear, like the sound of a lingling spring, but unfortunately...

Life is not perfect, there are gains and losses.

He strode out of the corridor.

After lunch, the group continued on their way and entered the capital in less than half an hour. Yeluyan led Suwei and Xiunu directly into the imperial city from Yong'an Gate.

Once entering the palace, the air seemed to suddenly become heavy. The palace walls sandwiched the corridors, and only the sound of chariots and horses was heard in silence.

At Chengtianmen, carriages and horses are forbidden, and all the beautiful girls got out of the carriage.

Although Murong Xue has never been in the palace, the golden nanmu building in front of her eyes, the white marble corridor under her feet, the stone carvings spouting water on the wall, the vermilion palace lanterns under the flying corridor, and the bright yellow glazed tiles with flowing light and shadow under the sun are everywhere to show that this is the The imperial palace of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Su Chungui, the head of internal affairs, personally brought the maids in the palace to welcome King Zhaoyang and his party.

Seeing Yeluyan get off the carriage, Su Chungui immediately stepped forward to salute with a smile: "My lord has worked hard all the way."

Yeluyan nodded and asked, "Where is the emperor at the moment?"

"It's in the imperial study."

"Then the king will hand over the order first." After saying that, he handed over Xiunu to Su Chungui, and went to report to the emperor first.

Murong Xue's gaze was involuntarily drawn away by him.At some point, he changed into a python robe.The sunlight diffused, and the golden dragon on the python robe seemed to be swaying ferociously among the sea of ​​clouds. Just from the back, there was a majestic and coercive power.She never felt that there was a difference in status between herself and him, because when she first met him, he was named Ye Lu, and he was a young master of Pian Pianjia. Later, even though she knew that he was King Zhaoyang, she was not afraid of him because of her preconceived impression.

But at this moment, when he was wearing a python robe and a crown on his head, she had a deep feeling for his identity, and it seemed that she was really impossible with him.Even if she loses the election, she will never have any contact with him again, because he is the aloof King Zhaoyang, and she is just a commoner.

She held the idea that she could take one more look, and stared at his back intently, hoping to have one more fragment of memory in the future.

He seemed to feel that someone was looking at him, and when he turned his head suddenly, he met a warm and slightly sad stare.She lowered her head hastily, but that look has already been reflected in his mind.Ever since she appeared in front of his eyes, she has looked like a dragon and a tiger, and even if she escaped and was caught, she would show her teeth and claws and refuse to admit defeat. This listless and dejected look is really not used to.

Su Chungui led the beautiful girls into Chengtian Gate and placed them in Chuxiu Palace.

After bathing in the fragrant soup, several female officials from the palace came to examine the beautiful ladies.Being stripped naked and being looked left and right by others, Murong Xue blushed with shame, even taking a bath in front of Yeluyan, she had never felt so embarrassed.

The twelve beauties are all perfect, after the body examination, they are neatly dressed, and Liu Siyi will explain the rules of the palace and face the holy etiquette.After a day of recuperation, it was time for the emperor to personally select the show girl.Early in the morning Liu Siyi sent the exact same green palace attire, and all the beautiful women wore their faces up to the sky, even combing their hair into the same bun. Only in this way could the natural beauty of hibiscus be picked out from the clear water.

After tidying up, the twelve beautiful girls waited on the verandah outside the hall.After a long time, only the sound of high-fives came from a distance, gradually approaching from far to near, implying that the emperor is coming soon, Liu Siyi immediately said: "Kneel to welcome the holy driver."

The show girls immediately knelt on both sides of the palace gate, Murong Xue was the first on the left, her nervous heartbeat almost stopped, since last night her throat has been burning and hurting, and she woke up early in the morning, as if she had choked something, Talking takes a lot of effort.She wondered nervously, if her voice is broken, can she not be selected?What if the emperor is so lustful that he doesn't care about his voice and only cares about his face?
