Rebirth Palace Chaos

Chapter 9

But how can Su Yan sit still?She secretly asked Lan Ruo to call Su Zhi, but Lan Ruo didn't agree, but she thought that she wouldn't make any big mistakes if she wanted to meet the second lady.

Su Zhi was very stubborn, and when she heard her eldest sister call her, she came over happily, so Su Yan took out the butterfly paper kite that she bought from the market before, and placed it on the desk as if carelessly, the paper kites were very green and very beautiful. conspicuous.

Although little Su Zhi was drinking tea, her eyes were fixed on the paper kite. Seeing this, Su Yan said, "Today's weather is so good, it's a pity I can't go out to let it go."

"I..." Su Zhi was about to agree, but then remembered what Mrs. Zhao had said, so she could only say, "Madam said that I will not teach my sister to go out."

"My mother is afraid that I will be naughty and offend the guests. Let's go to the back garden, and we will definitely not be seen." Su Yan further coaxed, "If someone sees it, I will hide somewhere else and fool around. , left and right will not be counted on your head."

Every sentence reached Su Zhi's heart, and seeing that she still didn't move, Su Yan put away the paper kite and said, "After autumn, there may not be many sunny days like this, so I'd better put it away and wait until next spring." stop."

"Elder Sister, let's go to the backyard, just play around for a while, don't let anyone find out." Su Yan hooked her fingers together and said, "You know, I know."

Before going out, she sent Lan Ruo away, then dressed up again, and the two slipped out along the corridor.

The backyard was sparsely populated and wormwood was luxuriant, and no one had accompanied her for a long time. Su Zhi became more and more like a bird out of the nest, pulling the coil and putting it very vigorously.

Su Yan was sitting among the flowers, looking at Su Zhi's innocent appearance, thinking that she might not see her many times in the future, she couldn't help feeling a little bit sad.

"Sister, come and play with Zhi'er too!" Su Zhi ran and waved at her, Su Yan lifted her skirt and ran over with a smile.

A pair of sisters laughed and laughed, and gradually moved under the courtyard wall. With a shake of Su Yan's hand, the paper kite swayed in the air a few times, and fell straight to the inner courtyard.

"Why did you lose it!" Su Zhi pursed her lips, and Su Yan comforted her, "It's okay, my sister will pick it up secretly, and you will watch over me."

Su Zhi nodded vigorously, then squatted in the corner and waited until Su Yan's skirt swayed and disappeared through the door.

Su Yan walked a few steps quickly, turned around the courtyard door, and, holding the paper kite in her hand, walked straight along the corridor to the front hall.

But he said that Su Fu was receiving guests with Mrs. Zhao, so he tried to persuade him a few times, and told the selected maid that her daughter had been ill for a long time, and she could not see her face.

At first, the selected nurse was unmoved, but Zhao said that her daughter's cough was not cured, and she was afraid that she would contaminate the Eucharist, which would be a big mistake.

Seeing that Madam Xuan let go, Su Fu winked, and Housekeeper Li brought up a small silver plate, under the red silk cloth, a few pieces of bright gold bars could be vaguely seen.

Mrs. Zhao laughed along, and was about to speak, when suddenly there was a bang outside the door, the side door was knocked open, and several people turned their heads to take a closer look, the one standing outside the door was Su Yan, who claimed to be sick?

Mr. Su coughed a few times, and Mrs. Zhao's face turned red and then white. She was very embarrassed, and she hurriedly winked at Su Yan. Butler Li went to cover the door, but the nurse chose to stand up first, "This is Miss Su?"

Su Yan stepped forward to salute, and said apologetically, "I just recovered from a serious illness, and I can't listen to my parents' teachings. I hope my mother will forgive me. I was sick in the room for a long time, and I feel better today. I didn't want to disturb the guests."

The selected nurse looked at Su Fu, and said with a smile, "It seems that Miss has recovered from her illness. She is considered to be the candidate in fifteen days, so she can go there. Master Su has sealed, and I still have a few more families to visit." , don’t bother me any more.”

"Yan'er's condition fluctuates from time to time, I'm afraid it will damage the health of the holy body..." Mrs. Zhao was anxious to defend, and pushed Su Yan, but she just stood with her hands down, without saying a word.

"The Imperial Physician in the palace is very skilled in medicine. If Miss enters the palace, I think she will recover soon."

After waiting for a while, Su Fu finally waved his hand and said, "That's all, that's all! Let her go!"

Without hesitation after speaking, he directly stamped the official seal.

Mrs. Zhao felt very reluctant, so she had to listen to the maid who chose to finish the rules. As soon as she left, her tears immediately fell, and she choked up and said, "You child, why are you so disobedient? What’s so good about it, that you’ve lost your mind and insisted on going in? You can’t live without it, but you insist on jumping into that fire pit…”

Su Yan only answered quietly, "If my daughter has such ambitions, I just ask her parents to understand."

"As a father, I don't expect you to be famous, nor do I expect you to be famous in the whole family, you just do it yourself!" Su Fu sighed, and walked away, leaving Mrs. Zhao alone to wipe away tears.

Because of this, Su Zhi was severely punished by Master Su, who punished her not to go out to play for several months. Although Zhou's heart ached, she didn't dare to get into trouble at this juncture, so she could only swallow the bitterness.

Su Yan went to look at her with some snacks, and saw Su Zhi lying on the bedside, not saying a word.

She walked over and called a few times, and turned her around, but Su Zhi had tears in her eyes, her mouth was pursed, and she held back her breath.

"It's all my sister's fault. From now on, I'll send you delicious food every day to make amends, okay?" Su Yan coaxed.

Unexpectedly, Su Zhi raised her face and asked, "Daddy said that because Zhi'er made a mistake, the whole family will never see the elder sister again."

Su Yan was taken aback, stroked her hair and said, "Sister is right here, why can't I see her?"

"Madam said, you are going to the palace to be a concubine, and you will never come back." As she spoke, she really started to cry.

The childishness of these words made her feel sore. After this trip, when the family met again, she didn't know what year it would be.

She took Su Zhi into her arms, said a few words of comfort, and said that if she really entered the palace, she would be taken into the palace. There are all kinds of delicious and delicious food in the palace.

When Su Zhi heard this, she thought for a while, and she really stopped crying. She stood up and asked, "Will elder sister become bad too? Just like the empress who punished you last time."

"No, sister will never hurt you." The two sisters hugged each other and finished the snack together before going to sleep.

The autumn rain continued for several days, but it showed no sign of stopping.

Mrs. Zhao hadn't seen her for a few days, and she even brought meals to her room. Su Yan understood that she loved her daughter so much, and it was really rare that she didn't cling to a powerful family like this.

She did the cooking herself, made a cup of shredded mandarin fish and bamboo shoot soup, and brought it to Zhao's house.

After standing for about half an hour, Mrs. Zhao opened the door.

Su Yan put down the mandarin fish soup and said, "Mother, try my daughter's cooking."

Seeing that Mrs. Zhao didn't answer for a long time, she had to turn around and leave.

"These days, you should carefully review the etiquette and piano books. If you enter the palace in the future, it will be indispensable, and your naughty temper will also need to be changed..."

After finishing speaking, she sighed again, her voice was slightly hoarse, and she was visibly haggard, so Su Yan snuggled up to her and said, "Daughter, remember, we must not hurt our Su family's face when the time comes."

"What face is there, as long as you are safe."

Su Yan shook her arms and said with a smile, "Look at what you said, my cousin is also in the palace, and sister Lin is also running for the election, we take care of each other, mother just keep her heart in her stomach."

"Your father doesn't see you, but his heart hurts. Don't blame him."

Su Yan nodded, and Zhao said again, "Wenyuan, you also need an explanation, I really can't bear it..."

On the day of entering the palace, just after the ugly hour, Su Yan was awakened by the bluebirds outside the window. She was blindfolded, but saw the half moon, like a hook, hanging upside down on the top of a clump of begonias in Xifu, after the first break of the shower. , the sky has been slightly white light.

Su Yan probably woke up at this moment, she had a good rest in the past few days, and her recovery was rosy.

Lan Ruo hadn't woken up yet, so she washed and washed herself, and sat in front of the mirror to put on her makeup.

Even if no powder is applied on this face, it still shows its color.It's just that in Huaqing Palace today, there must be a lot of beautiful women mirroring each other, if you want to be safe, you can't be careless.

Her complexion was already fair, but she only picked out a few strands of rose dew and evenly mixed it into the fine powder, which made her cheeks and snowy neck thinner, her lips were like vermilion red, but it was too strong, so she had to brew it with honey. The lip gloss is applied evenly, making it more dewy and tender.

After the makeup was completed, she looked around, then took a pinch of cinnabar powder, and gently wiped it between the eyelids and brows, and the bright eyes immediately flowed with waves.

Lan Ruo came in with a copper basin and opened the door, only to see that the young lady had finished dressing, and she was sitting in front of the mirror looking back, looking like flowing clouds and rosy clouds.

"Miss wakes up so early." Lan Ruo went over and trimmed her temples carefully.

Su Yan waved her hand suddenly and said, "Sit down first."

Lan Ruo saw that she didn't seem to be joking, so she stood in front of her, Su Yan raised her eyes, her face was quiet, and said, "You and I have been together day and night for six years, would you like to enter the palace with me?"

When Lan Ruo heard this, she bent her knees and knelt down, "Wherever the lady goes, the maidservant will go there!"

"That's not what I said. You saw it last time. I just made a small mistake, so I lost my life. It's so difficult to be the master in the palace, let alone those servants. You I have served me for many years, and I have a deep friendship, if you have concerns, I will definitely not force it, whether it is staying in the residence to serve the master and wife, or someone else, I will make proper arrangements for you."

Lan Ruo was still on her knees and answered, with tears in her eyes, "I have already thought about it, and I will follow the young lady into the palace."

"Silly girl, if you want to go with me, you don't have to make a fuss about life and death. If I can gain the favor of the emperor, I will have a bright future and protect you all day."

Only then did Lan Ruo burst into tears, "Lan Ruo is satisfied with Miss's words, the time is coming, I'll go get the clothes."

The breakfast was eaten very slowly, because she was afraid of getting dirty makeup, Su Yan only drank a few sips of scented tea, then stopped eating, and only sat with her family.

Mrs. Zhao brought food for her, and said, "The food in the palace is not as good as the food at home."

"Not to mention that my daughter may not be selected, even if she really enters the palace, she will also be well-clothed and well-fed, so how can she suffer?" Su Yan knew that she was reluctant, so she said a few words of relief.

The whole family stopped talking, and after sending her to the carriage, Su Fu said, "Be careful in everything and think twice before you act."

Su Yan looked at the young and old who were still standing in the distance, and didn't tell the car curtain to be lowered for a long time, until the car disappeared at the end of the street and was never seen again.

The road leading to Xuanwu Gate is wide and straight, and there are horses and horses that are drafted into the palace. Although the Su family is not a family of high-ranking officials, they can't teach their daughter that it is too shabby. Once again, the horse is newly mated, with strong hooves, and looks quite impressive from the outside.

The carriages moved forward in an orderly manner, rushing towards the majestic imperial city. After all, they were officials and eunuchs, although there were many but not crowded, they went in order.

She opened the curtain slightly, and saw a float at the rear diagonally, in which was Xie Yunjin, the daughter of Master Xie, the prefect of Jingzhao.

There is a yellow belt Xuan car in front, I don't know which one it is, I looked left and right, but I can't see Lin Fu.

After half an hour, they arrived at the foot of Xuanwu Gate, in front of the endless palace gate, all kinds of chariots and horses were parked, many guards guarded the city gate, and the palace chief inspected the passers-by.

Su Yan straightened her bun, and got out of the car with Lan Ruo's support, with her skirt still on the ground and her gait delicate.
