When the carriage entered the palace gate, a guard came up to check, but Gu Rujiu did not get off the carriage, but took the carriage and walked in all the way.

The wheels rolled on the stone road, making a grunting sound, Gu Rujiu raised the corner of the curtain, only to see the guard beside the carriage and the high red wall.

Putting down the curtain, she touched the back of her hand, making the expression on her face more comfortable.

The imperial palace of the Feng Dynasty was not small, and along the way, even through the curtain, Gu Rujiu could also hear the footsteps of the imperial guards and the sound of weapons and armor hitting.

This atmosphere gave her a sense of what imperial palace meant, and also gave her a higher level of understanding of power.

The carriage drove in the palace for about two hours, and when she heard a high-fare from the front, the carriage stopped.

The two maids who took over Rujuu's palace did not expect to meet Yu-gun here. They were supposed to avoid it, but this is a long alley, which cannot be avoided. They can only stop to the side to show respect for the emperor. .

Although there is no real power in the hands of the emperor, no matter what, the other party is also an emperor. Even if the empress dowager has a face in front of him, she is only a court attendant in front of the emperor.

Grandma leaning on the horse station walked to the carriage window and whispered, "Miss Gu, Yuyun is here."

Gu Rujiu heard that the grandmother was reminding herself to welcome her, so she lifted the curtain and walked down with her hand.

"Bai Xian, what happened?" Jin Yang noticed that Yu Ling's speed had slowed down, and he coughed a little, then reached out and lifted the curtain covering his line of sight. Next to the palace road, a little girl wearing a water-blue color dress and a crescent-colored shawl came down from the car. Because the distance was slightly further away, the other party's head dropped slightly, and he could only see the other party's black hair. .

When his luan was approaching, he couldn't help but glance at the little girl. The black hair bun hanging on the cheek set her skin so tender and fair, as if it could pinch out the water. The silver hairpins are particularly beautiful.

Seeing the petite and petite appearance of this little girl, Jin Marting resisted the itching between his throats, covered his mouth with a handkerchief, and pressed down his coughing *.

He seemed to feel that if he coughed like this, he might scare the little girl.

When Yu-yong left the carriage, he couldn't help but glance at the little girl standing down again, and the cold wind blew her corner and shawl, so he couldn't help but say: "In early spring, it's cold, the girl doesn't need to Li, return to the car. "

After he had said this, he saw the little girl move a little, he saw her white and small chin, moist lips and slightly pink cheeks.

It looks good to be a healthy girl.

Jin Yang smiled slightly on his pale face, and slowly lowered the curtain.

Hearing the voice of Yuyun leaving, Gu Rujiu raised his head and looked towards Yuyun.

Grandma helped her get on the carriage, and after the carriage curtain was lowered, she thought about what kind of person Xindi was. A child under the age of thirteen knows how to care about others, but he doesn't know whether it is superficial benevolence or what he shows to others.

The carriage went forward for another two hours of incense, and then stopped at a distance from Kangquan Palace.

The Kangquan Palace is the Empress Dowager ’s palace, so other women ’s families will show respect for the Empress Dowager, and they will not go directly to the palace gate in a car. Gu Rujiu noticed that there were more palace attendants here than outside, and he was more careful in his words and deeds. There would be no so-called palace attendants who stood by and watched her as a servant from afar, but whoever met him in the front, either bowed back to show respect, or avoided to avoid, absolutely no people who did not know to advance and retreat .

Kangquan Palace is where the empress dowagers of the Feng Dynasty lived, so calmness and elegance are its characteristics. This was the first time Gu Rujiu stepped into this place. Although the grandma's ladies who led the way all smiled, they still couldn't hide the speciality of this place.

In her imagination, Empress Zhou, even if she was not a very beautiful woman, was also a very imposing figure. She knew that when she saw the other person at first glance, she overthrew her original view.

"Long for a long time?" Empress Zhou sat on the chair upright and saw a little smile on her face when she saw Gu Rujiu coming in. When she saw Gu Rujiu's eyebrows, her attitude became more enthusiastic. Before waiting for Gu Rujiu to finish the ceremony, she smiled and supported her hand to sit down, "I don't have to be more polite from my family, just call me my aunt in private."

Gu Rujiu noticed that Empress Zhou always stared at her face, and she was suspicious in her heart, but she sweetly called "aunt." As far as relatives are concerned, she should call the empress dowager and not aunt, but this At that time, who would specifically correct this?

"Good," Empress Zhou asked the maid to send tea and fruit snacks, still holding Gu Rujiu with one hand, "When you were on the full moon, I was in poor health at that time, and I didn't have the opportunity to go out to see you at the palace. You are so big. "

Gu Rujiu heard from her mother that two days before her birth, the little princess of Empress Zhou died, only a few months longer than the little prince. After serving for a year or two, Empress Zhou was unhappy, and since then she has not had much contact with her family.

Now, ten years later, Gu Rujiu looked at the gentle woman in front of her and couldn't imagine how she had spent the most obscure time and became the most honorable woman in Feng Dynasty.

"Mother told me that the longevity lock I wore when I was a kid was sent by someone," Gu Rujiu said with a smile. "There are still many things that you brought to me, only when I was young Young, I do n’t know to thank you. "

"How old are you and haven't had the opportunity to enter the palace before, how can you thank me?" Empress Zhou smiled and pushed a stack of thousand-layer cakes in front of Gu Rujiu, and said softly, "I heard your father mentioned that you like to eat a thousand Layer cake. This is what I made the chef specially make, you taste it.

A pile of exquisite dim sum is placed in the green lotus leaf tray. Although it is a layer cake, each one is only the size of a thumb and looks very cute.

Put a piece of silver fork into the mouth, and it tasted no better than his own cook. Gu Rujiu saw the Empress's smile with a little anticipation, swallowed the snack, and took a sip of tea and said: "Slightly tired."

Sure enough, the Queen Mother did not displease her because of her words, but instead nodded and said: "Sure enough, if you want to say a thousand-layer cake, it is your cook who did it well. When I was a girl at home, I went to your house , I ca n’t remember anything else, just remember that the entrance of the thousand-layer cake melted and the lips and teeth were fragrant. "

"Is it so delicious?" Gu Rujiu opened his eyes wide, curious, and a little regretful. "Unfortunately, it's the cook's apprentice who makes the pastry. I have no chance to taste it."

After seeing her eyes wide open, Empress Zhou felt very itchy in her heart. There was an urge to reach out and squeeze her face. Finally, she remembered her identity, and she didn't make any serious moves.

The two spoke for a while. Queen Zhou asked Gu Rujiu to write a picture for her. After reading it, she sighed: "The master teacher is a high disciple. Although you are young, the words are already as good as your father."

"Thank you auntie for compliment." Gu Rujiu's eyebrows were suddenly curved, revealing two shallow dimples. After seeing it, Empress Zhou returned the urge to pinch her face.

But no matter what, the Empress Zhou is very happy. As long as Gu Rujiu entered the door, she was particularly fond of the child, especially the pair of brows and small dimples on her cheeks, which made her feel uncomfortable.

Although she lives in the deep palace, she has seen many little girls. Gu Rujiu is not the most beautiful, but she is the most cute and pleasing, just like the freshest peach, which makes people look at it from afar. I feel particularly sweet.

It's a pity that Queen Mother Zhou likes Gu Rujiu again, and she can't let the courtier's daughter stay in the palace, so when Gu Rujiu left, she clung to Gu Rujiu's hand, "The emperor is busy on weekdays, and I have no other children under your knees. When I ’m free, I often go to the palace to see. Your child is very close to my eyes. As soon as I saw it today, I thought you were like my own child. "

Gu Rujiu heard the words and raised his head to show embarrassed smile to Empress Zhou, it seemed embarrassed. In the end, her eyes fell on the back of Queen Mother's hand. Although the hand was still white, it was not as soft and smooth as the young woman.

When entering the palace this time, Gu Rujiu sat beside the Empress Dowager Kang Quan Palace for a long time.

Until she took the carriage back home, she couldn't figure out what the Queen Mother meant. It's not quite like saying that they are interested in attracting their family members. Who would have summoned a 10-year-old girl alone to win over the minister's family? That's too unreliable.

But seeing the attitude of Queen Mother Zhou is not as if he was suspicious of Gu's family. If the queen mother was really dissatisfied with their family, she would not let her dad be an emperor, and she would also use a carriage regulated by the county monarch to pick her up from the palace.

It must not be the queen mother that her old man suddenly became curious about her niece, who had never met her, so he called her to look at her and turned her head to find that she was quite pleasing to the eye, so she teased her as a cute thing?

Thinking of the carriage full of things in the back, Gu Rujiu irresponsibly wiped his face, and care about him, such a complicated matter, give her father and mother a headache.

In fact, Gu Changling and his wife were a little puzzled to see the big car reward brought back by Gu Rujiu. Their daughter had entered the palace and ransacked the Kangquan Palace. They brought back so many good things from the queen mother.

Wasn't that golden jade stepped shake one of the items offered by a small country, how could it appear in this pile of gifts?

There is also the Xinghe Liuli lamp. I heard that a concubine was too rare, but was sent to Empress Zhou by Emperor Xian, how could it appear here?

"Daughtergirl, what did you do to the queen mother after you entered the palace?" Gu Changling looked at Gu Rujiu with a skeptical face, as if looking at a miracle.

Gu Rujiu: ...

The queen mother wants to stuff her, is she blaming her?
