Jingmen Fengyue

Chapter 126 Entering the Palace (1)
Xie Fanghua no longer refused, and suddenly laughed, "Aunt Fu, how can you make a country and a city with just one piece of clothing?"

"If it weren't for you to toss yourself like this, if you take out your appearance, there is really no one in the capital of Nanqin who can match it?" Aunt Fu flattened the corner of Xie Fanghua's cloak and said in her mouth, "Mr. Right Ms. Li Rubi from the mansion is said to be beautiful, and Princess Jinyan, the daughter of the eldest princess, is said to be very beautiful. It is hard to beat her, but that is because the people in the capital have not seen you. If they do, this statement must be changed. changed."

Xie Fanghua gathered her cloak, stood up with a smile, put the veil on her head, and said to Zhongyonghou and Xie Mohan, "Grandpa, brother, it's getting late, let's enter the palace!"

Zhongyonghou nodded, and Xie Mohan also stood up.

A group of people left the Rongfu Hall.

Today's Zhongyonghou Mansion has no trace of dust on the ground, and the door lintels have been swept to shine.

Xie Fanghua wore a Firefox cloak, and was supported by Shi Hua and Shi Mo out of the Rongfu Hall, and the eyes of the servants all focused on her.Everyone knows that the young lady who has not been out of the boudoir for many years is going to the palace to attend the palace banquet today. She is wearing a Firefox cloak.

Amid the sound of greetings, a group of people came to the gate.

Today, there was a long line of cars and horses standing in front of Zhongyonghou's mansion, the line almost stretched for a street.

Xie Fanghua took a glance and saw that there were about dozens of carriages. She sighed secretly, the Xie family was prosperous, and only one palace banquet could occupy one-third of the people in the palace banquet. up.

Whoever sits as the monarch of the Southern Qin Dynasty will not be able to tolerate the Xie family continuing to be great.

"Greetings, old master, son!" Dozens of people, old or young, waiting at the door saw Zhongyonghou and his party come out, and fixed their eyes on Xie Fanghua, who was walking behind Xie Mohan, who was wearing a Firefox cloak and covered with a veil. , After a while, they came back to their senses and bowed to salute one after another.

The people of the Xie clan are secretly unwilling to be reconciled to the fact that the Zhongyonghou Mansion has been standing still, but they must also be respectful on the surface.

Zhongyonghou glanced at everyone, waved his hands, "There is no need to be polite."

Everyone straightened up.

"The number of people attending the palace banquet this year seems to be much more than last year, what's going on?" Zhongyonghou asked.

An old man glanced back at the carriages lined up behind him, and quickly replied, "Go back to Lord Hou, there is news in the palace this year that young masters and ladies who have passed Jiguan and Jiji are eligible to participate in the palace banquet. A palace banquet is held for the sake of excitement. You know, counting all the houses of our Xie family, there are quite a few young masters and ladies who have reached the crown and Jiji this year, and they are all here now."

Zhongyonghou suddenly realized, nodded, and said with a majestic face, "The palace is different from home. You tell them to be careful after entering the palace, and make sure there is no difference. Once you enter the palace, don't get carried away. What should be said, what should be done If you do it, you have to think more about it, so as not to cause trouble."

"Exactly. Don't worry, old Hou Ye, I already explained everything yesterday." The old man said.

Zhongyonghou nodded, "That's good."

"Is this Miss?" The old man looked at Xie Fanghua and asked tentatively.

Zhongyonghou nodded, and said gently to his back, "Hua girl, come forward to meet your uncles and brothers."

Xie Fanghua heard the words and was supported by Shi Hua and Shi Mo to take two steps forward, saluted everyone headed by the old man, and said softly, "Fanghua has seen uncles and brothers."

"No way, my niece is delicate, so I'm going to be excused." The old man staggered his body, and quickly reached out to help her.

The rest of the people also staggered away again and again, not accepting her courtesy.

Xie Fanghua straightened up. Uncles and brothers who had never met before were naturally not close. The reason why they were disrespectful to her was naturally because her grandfather and brother held her, the only legitimate daughter in their tender house, in their hands.People outside might almost forget about the fact that there was a young lady in Zhongyonghou's mansion, but Xie's family members would never forget it.They knew best how precious she was, and if the emperor hadn't ordered it, the old Hou would not be willing to let her enter the palace for a banquet.

"It's getting late, let's go!" Zhongyong Hou waved his hand and said.

"Exactly!" The old man nodded.

Xie Mohan took a step forward and opened the sedan chair curtain for Hou Zhongyong, and the old Hou Ye got on the sedan chair.He lowered the curtain, turned his head and said to Xie Fanghua, "Sister, you can also take the sedan chair! Although the carriage is spacious, it is not as stable as the sedan chair."

Xie Fanghua nodded.

Shi Hua took a step forward, opened the curtain of the sedan chair, Xie Fanghua poked her head slightly, was supported by Shi Mo, and sat on it.

The curtain fell, covering the prying eyes of many Xie clan relatives.

Xie Mohan turned around and made a gesture of invitation to the old man, and got into the carriage by himself.

Two sedan chairs and a carriage left the gate of Zhongyonghou's Mansion, and dozens of carriages that had been parked for a long time also moved slowly.

The team also pulled a long team and walked on the street, which was very spectacular.

In one of the carriages in Xie's big house, a middle-aged woman and a young girl were sitting.It was Mrs. Min and her newly grown daughter named Xie Yin.

When Marquis Zhongyong took Xie Fanghua out of the mansion, all the men were waiting at the gate of the mansion, and all the women were waiting in the car.Xie Yin quietly lifted a corner of the curtain and looked out secretly.

When Xie Fanghua came out wearing a Firefox cloak, Xie Yin let out a low cry.

Mrs. Min immediately covered Xie Yin's mouth with her hand, and muffled her cry. Looking at Xie Yin's wide-open eyes, she warned in a low voice, "That's the old lord, son, the lady of Zhongyonghou's mansion, you If you are so impolite and spread it out, you will have no boudoir manners and upbringing. Mother has warned you countless times, why are you still so ignorant?"

Xie Yin collected herself, pushed Madam Min's hand away, and whispered in surprise, "Mother, that's Xie Fanghua!"

"It's Xie Fanghua! You read that right! The lady of the Zhongyonghou Mansion!" Mrs. Min emphasized.

"She... really went to the palace banquet?" Xie Yin was incredulous, "Isn't she too sick to get out of bed?"

"Who told you that she was too sick to get out of bed?" Madam Min put on a serious face, "Even though we, as members of the Xie family, can't spy much on the affairs of the Zhongyonghou Mansion, what we hear is not what we see. Even if she She was too sick to get out of bed, and the emperor ordered her to go out of the palace to have a banquet? There are some things, how can you say for sure?"

"Mother, what do you mean? Does she have other secrets?" Xie Yin looked at Madam Min suspiciously.

"You, how many times have I told you to grow your brains." Mrs. Min nodded Xie Yin's forehead, and said in a low voice, "Over the years, Niang Duofang has inquired about the situation of the Begonia Garden in Zhongyonghou's Mansion, but it is not at all. The wind can't get in, and it's as strong as a copper wall than the guards of the palace. Isn't it strange? Whose young lady in Beijing hides like her? If she is really sick, it may be a serious illness. If she is not sick, it is a serious illness great secret."
