My Princess Has Been Reborn
Chapter 42: The minister has a sincere heart
Lu Qipei had long known that Qi Yang was mediating, and he would surely be summoned by the emperor again, but he didn't expect that he would come so quickly when he met the saint again.
In the morning, I dealt with the accumulation of leave. I listened to gossip at noon. I was planning to continue reviewing the manuscript in the afternoon. As a result, the summons came. The eyes of the colleagues' gossip instantly focused on Lu Qipei, but the latter had no time to pay attention to this much.
Lu Qipei put aside his affairs and hurriedly followed the summoned palace man into the palace.
The two of them passed through the palace gate and walked through the palace road one after another, heading straight to the Xuanshi Hall.
What I saw on the way, Yulin was majestic, and the palace people were orderly, no different from usual. Only the young man walking on the palace road saw the majestic palace of the Xuanshi Hall getting closer, and secretly exhaled without a trace, but his heartstrings were still tense.
Waiting to go outside the hall of the propaganda room, Zhang Jian personally greeted him, but smiled and said: "Your Majesty is dealing with government affairs, Master Lu can wait for a while. After your Majesty has handled the affairs in his hands, he will be summoned. "
Seeing this posture, she is going to hang her again.
What can Lu Qipei say? Of course she couldn't say anything, she could only obediently agree and was led to the side hall by the palace. There is nothing lacking in the side hall. The tea is prepared early and I won’t mention it, and even several plates of pastries are prepared.
It's just that there are no other people in the huge side hall, and even the palace people who have just led the way have also resigned after taking her there.
Lu Qipei stood in the palace for a while, finally endured his anxiety, found a chair to sit down, and poured himself a cup of tea.
The tea is warm, the entrance is just right, and the cakes next to it also exude an attractive aroma. If it wasn't for the right time and place, drinking tea and snacks during this great time would actually be much more satisfying than a boring work in the Imperial Academy.
It's just that this comfort is destined not to belong to Lu Qipei today, and the long tea fragrance can't conceal her tension at the moment.
However, the emperor deliberately hangs people out, and this wait is not a moment. Lu Qipei entered the palace when the sun was high in the afternoon. Seeing the sun gradually slanting to the west, the scorching summer sun slowly spilled through the doors and windows into the palace, and the will of the summoning was still delayed.
After almost waiting for an afternoon, no matter how patient you are, you should run out. Lu Qipei was different. When she suddenly received the call to enter the palace, she was indeed panicked, fearing that she would leave a bad impression on the emperor, making her marriage to Qi Yang more difficult. But after being left for a whole afternoon, she calmed down, drinking the tea that was already cold, and she was more able to savor the taste.
While drinking herbal tea quietly, the outside of the palace was empty and quiet for an afternoon, but footsteps faintly sounded.
Lu Qipei's spirit suddenly came, and the palace maiden who thought it was the summon finally came, but when he listened carefully, he felt wrong. Most eunuchs waited on the eunuchs in the propaganda hall. The palace servants who preached the decree and led the way were also servants, but the footsteps were different, light and soft.
As he was thinking, Lu Qipei turned his head to look, seeing a piece of clothing flashing past the hall.
The embroidery on the corners of the clothes is exquisite and colorful, but it is a palace costume.
Lu Qipei thought of Qi Yang instantly, she stood up suddenly, and subconsciously stepped towards the temple gate. After only two steps, he stopped again. Thinking about the current situation, he retreated and sat down again. It's just a lot of peace in my heart.
This is just a small episode, but with the passage of time, the emperor could not leave people in the palace overnight.
So when the sun sets to the west, Zhang Jian still comes. He still smiled, and a pair of shrewd eyes swept across the temple and Lu Qipei: "Master Lu, your majesty has announced the call, please follow me."
When Lu Qipei heard this, he got up and adjusted his clothes, and then followed Zhang Jian, looking a little more relaxed than when he first entered the palace.
These are all seen by Zhang Jian, for the young man’s disposition is secretly stunned in his heart, but there is no impoliteness on his face-he is a wise man, he naturally knows the intention of the emperor to hang Lu Qipei, and he knows 80% of the consorts did not run away.
Princess Qi Yang is different from the princesses next to him. The emperor has so many daughters, but Qi Yang is the only one who has the holy favorite. At least Zhang Jian didn't see the emperor worrying about the marriage of other princesses. He only went to His Royal Highness Qi Yang. The horse she had chosen was criticized by the emperor. It was not that the other party was not good enough, but the emperor was reluctant to marry his daughter.
When Zhang Jian saw this, he understood that His Highness Qi Yang's Sacred Heart was the only one who could not be compared. Therefore, even facing Lu Qipei, he was a lot more solemn and never treated her rudely from the beginning.
The emperor had to deal with a lot of government affairs every day, but he had been the emperor for more than ten years, and he did not stay at the desk every day. In fact, he had already dealt with today's government affairs. He had been chatting with Qi Yang all afternoon, just not summoning Lu Qipei who was waiting in the side hall.
Until he couldn't drag it any longer, he waved his hand at Qi Yang and said, "Go go, if you really don't want to go, go to the screen and wait."
Of course Qi Yang refused to leave. If she had won the prince, she made up her mind today to finalize the marriage. At the moment, he personally handed the tea cup to the emperor. He pleased him and said coquettishly: "Father, the sons and ministers have identified her as a concierge. If you want to strike, you should strike, but don’t be too bully and scare her away. I can find someone you want!"
Qi Yang, whose mother and concubine died young, was raised by the emperor since childhood, and was enlightened by the prince himself. The feelings between the three are not comparable to others. The emperor has always liked Qi Yang acting like a baby at him, and the closer Qi Yang behaved to nature, the more ironed in his heart.
It's just that after the daughter grows up, she will act coquettishly to him for another stinky boy, and the emperor's heart becomes more uneasy. At that moment, he hurried again with a humiliating face: "Walk, father can still eat him? If this kid is so cowardly, he is not worthy of my son."
Qi Yang also knew that enough was enough, so he stopped talking now. Only smiled at the emperor, looked outside the hall, and went to the screen and waited.
Lu Qipei came quickly. The teenager has a clear temperament and a calm manner, even if he is facing the emperor, he still has an attitude of neither humble nor arrogant...this is the emperor discovered from the very beginning. He is in a high position, full of majesty, ordinary people will first be afraid of three points. Only the young man in front of him, from the very beginning, saw him only doing the ordinary, respectful, but not cowardly.
But bye bye today, after leaving her for a whole afternoon, everyone else is afraid that she will be more frightened, but she will still be the same.
To be honest, if this kid hadn't abducted his daughter, the emperor would still appreciate her. It's a pity that Qi Yang is in it, and the emperor can only look at her like a son-in-law, except for being picky.
Lu Qipei bowed and saluted, the emperor waited for a long time before calling out, and then he didn't say anything else.
The emperor didn't have much contact with Lu Qipei, except for Chunwei's answer sheet that surprised him, which was the erudition revealed during his lectures the previous two days. All this can prove her excellence, but this is not enough for the emperor, he must choose the best for his favorite daughter.
After a series of tests, Lu Qipei talked about from Tiannan to Haibei and from the government to people's livelihood. The appearance of the young boy is indeed a rare talent. Even the emperor is picky. After hearing it, his eyes gradually showed two points of appreciation.
The two were talking about the situation in northern Xinjiang, when the emperor suddenly asked in a deep voice: "Do you know what I am declaring about you today?"
If it is someone else, he must be careful after hearing this, but Lu Qipei said bluntly without even thinking: "The minister has heard rumors in the Hanlin Academy today. Your Majesty suddenly called for His Highness Qiyang."
Seeing her so calm, the emperor raised an eyebrow in surprise: "Then what do you want to say?"
Liang Guozhong, and the monarchs and ministers rarely bow and bow, but Lu Qipei suddenly lifted his robe and knelt down. She raised her head and looked at the emperor with a pair of clear black eyes: "The minister is brave, and I admire Your Majesty, and I beg your Majesty for marriage."
This was too straightforward, including Zhang Jian, who was standing next to him, who couldn't help but glance over.
Qi Yang hid behind the screen and heard it, and he stood up abruptly. After two steps, Zhi Ting pulled his long sleeves, and then he stopped and still looked at the kneeling people across the screen. Only pursing his lips and frowning, he was a little worried.
The emperor outside the screen did not speak, he sat quietly on the dragon chair, his eyes sharp and deep. The hall suddenly quieted down, as if even the palace people's breathing was lightened, and the great power rushed to Lu Qipei's head, making people distraught.
Lu Qipei was also not at peace, in addition to facing the imperial oppression of the emperor, but also because the person in front of him was Qi Yang's father. She can face the imperial power, neither humble nor overbearing, but she can't help but compromise with Qi Yang's father. So she lowered her head slightly, but her back was still straight and her attitude was still firm, letting the emperor's eyes fall on her, silently waiting for the other party's judgment.
After a while, and perhaps a long time later, the emperor finally said, "Why do you ask to marry my emperor?"
After hearing this, Lu Qipei thought for a while, and replied: "For whatever reason, the minister's knowledge and the emperor are the same as the emperor, and it is not counted as the minister's reliance. Only the minister still has a sincere heart for His Highness." Still added: "His Royal Highness treats me the same way."
Zhang Jian's breathing stopped, and his eyes peeking at Lu Qipei became weird-no one had ever spoken to the emperor like this.
Talking about feelings with the emperor seemed naive, but Lu Qipei had his own calculations.
Qi Yang had already told her that the emperor had no intention of letting her marry into a high gate marriage. One is for her own consideration, and the other is that she doesn't want to give the young and powerful prince more help. He originally wanted to pick a son-in-law among the scholars of the current division. Lu Qipei was confident that he could only learn to dominate the crowd, and the emperor was not dissatisfied with the examination. Then she met the emperor's criteria for choosing a son-in-law.
Under this premise, what else should she say? Do you really want to show off your family status as if you are facing an ordinary old man? Don't be kidding, she really said that, I'm afraid that the emperor will have to order to cross out on the spot!
However, although the emperor heard this answer and did not order the person to be crossed out, his face was black visible to the naked eye.
Lu Qipei blinked, not knowing what he had said wrong, so he listened to the emperor's words: "Qing retreat."
