The Pearl on the Emperor’s Crown

Xie Ying didn't speak, and waited for Han Yunrong to speak.

"Since she is my sibling, she should marry from the elder brother."

"For you two to get married, I am happy to see it happen." Han Yunrong is not happy to see it, and Zhu Yi loves Xie Ying. The two are done, and more importantly, there are calculations from the emperor.

Xie Ying smiled and said, "Okay. I should prepare the letter of appointment, Geng post and dowry here, and come home today."

Both of them understood that on the surface they were talking about marriage, but in reality, it was Han Yunrong who expressed his position through the marriage. Xie Ying is bound to seek a great cause. Han Yunrong is considered to have officially joined Xie Ying's camp, and will no longer work for the emperor, and will not rely on the Yan family or the Ruan family in the future.

After all, trying to usurp the throne cannot be easily declared at any time.

Han Yunrong was very annoyed at Xie Ying’s intimacy with Zhu Yi before, for fear that this man would be passionate about his sister for a while. You can force Zhu Yi to be a concubine. Therefore, he never gave Xie Ying a reply.

But observations so far proved that his sister's vision is not bad.

Han Yunrong pondered: "Let’s make a marriage first, get married and wait. Now my brother-sister relationship with Yiyi is still a secret, even if you marry her, it can’t be disclosed to the public. Therefore, you still have to keep a distance from her in front of others. , Let alone... let her be pregnant, lest she be criticized."

Xie Ying said, "I know this."

Han Yunrong said: "My son, I am very grateful that you let our brothers and sisters recognize each other, instead of finding a family for Yiyi and fabricating an identity for her."

For Xie Ying, it is easy to fake Zhu Yi's life experience, and the people Xie Ying finds take orders from Xie Ying, which makes it easier for him to control Zhu Yi in the palm of his hand.

The corners of Xie Ying's lips twitched slightly to find another family for Zhu Yi. How could her brother come. He would let Han Yunrong and Zhu Yi brothers and sisters recognize each other, naturally after consideration.

It can be said that it is precisely because Zhu Yi's brother is Han Yunrong that he will make the two recognize each other. If Han Yunrong is a man who has misconducted his words and deeds, even if it is Zhu Yi's brother, he will not let the opponent get close to Zhu Yi. But it happened to be Han Yunrong. He knew this person well. He was the target he was interested in soliciting. He had the best of both worlds, so why not do it.

Xie Ying said: "Don't be grateful, I also want to save myself from worries. If I really have that day, how can Yiyi not have a reliable and powerful foreigner."

They were all smart people, and Han Yunrong understood in an instant.

Xie Ying has great hopes of reaching the highest level. If he becomes the emperor, there must be countless people who want to give him a woman. All forces need to be balanced. If Zhu Yi is weak, it will be bad after all.

Even if Xie Ying fabricates an identity for Zhu Yi, it is inevitable that the family will not be distracted, thinking that it is better for their own relatives and daughters to serve the master, and may not treat Zhu Yi sincerely.

Moreover, Xie Ying is suggesting that he will be appointed as an official in the future, and he will have his own Qingyun Road, because Zhu Yi needs a strong foreign family.

Han Yunrong was not only grateful for Xie Ying's dedication to Zhu Yi, but also a little bit surprised, and he felt like relying on his sister to seek glory.

Xie Ying didn’t need to look closely at Han Yunrong’s expression, but knew what he was thinking. “Master Han, don’t want to use your talents to learn character. As long as the person sitting on it is not a blind person, you’ll know how ."

Han Yunrong was startled and slowly smiled and nodded. When Xie Ying deliberately wins over someone, it is really hard to refuse. He even understood that with Zhu Yi's appearance, it would inevitably lead to competition from the powerful. If he did not follow Xie Ying, he would not be able to protect her comprehensively even if he did his best.

The two men have reached a consensus at this point.

When Xie Ying returned to Wengquan Palace, Shen Xingliu immediately submitted a letter, saying: "The son, the princess' family letter."

Xie Ying stopped on the porch for a moment, and then walked inside. He did not answer the letter, but asked, "What does the letter say?"

Shen Xingliu replied: "The princess said, it is cold, let the elder son remember to add clothes. The princess also said that the golden silk suxinlan you helped her plant is still alive, but the one she planted herself died."

Xie Ying came to the window and was silent. He watched the cinnabar plum leaning out in the snow, and a crow flopped twice on the tip, flapping its wings and flying away.

"Does the elder son want to reply?" Shen Xingliu said a little nervously: "Bi...After all, it is said that the son is worried about the mother who travels thousands of miles, and the elder son has been in Beijing for a few months."

Xie Ying finally said, "I won't reply. You should keep the letter and let Nie Shengjia send someone to protect the safety of the princess."

Shen Xingliu replied with retreat.

After a few days of dullness, the winter solstice arrived.

At the winter solstice, everyone's clothes and socks are new and fresh, regardless of men, women or children. The new clothes of the little princesses were prepared by the Needle Industry Bureau early, and the palace maidens also picked up themselves early, and then carefully dressed up for the masters.

The little girls are all dressed in bright colors today, just like their green age.

Even Zhu Yi's clothes are different from the usual simple and elegant. She wears a primrose-colored Ruijinyun butterfly dark pattern inlaid silver mink jacket, and the lower body is a satin skirt with hibiscus and purple moon. The skin is shiny and tender, and she can drip water .

Zhu Yi rarely wears such a bright color, and her hair is combed into a fragrant bun. She is wearing a golden five-tailed phoenix hairpin. Two pairs of pink jewellery bottles are inserted upside down on the temples. As she approaches, she pitches the lotus inlays. The purple earrings kept dangling on the cheeks. Without the usual elegance, the whole person looked graceful and graceful.

Everyone's eyes were attracted to her, and they all thought together that Zhu Yi's appearance was actually more suitable for such a dress.

Both Xie Ying and Yan Fengqin thought that Zhu Yi was beautiful but not aggressive, but they realized today that this is not the case.

Nowadays, filial piety is the most important thing, and the winter solstice is the "sub-year", so the juniors naturally want to "worship" to the elders.

Yan Fengqin is the empress dowager’s decent grand-nephew, and the empress is the emperor’s regular wife. Xie Ying and Xie Shao are the empress’s nephews. These three people are all real, and there are no relatives of the emperor.

After the little princesses paid their salutes to the Queen Mother, Xie Ying, Xie Shao, and Yan Fengqin all lifted their robes and bowed to the Queen Mother He Dong.

The queen mother smiled with joy, and everyone gave a reward. Then he said to the princesses: "Today is the festival, go to the yard to play with yours. I have been with Ai Jia for the past two days. I can't sit still one by one."

After leaving Changning Garden, Zhu Yi and Zhu Chuo went to Taixu Lake for an ice walk together as agreed earlier.

Xie Ying was about to follow, but was stopped by Xie Shao. Yan Fengqin had reached Zhu Chuo and said, "Cousin, I will accompany you."

Zhu Chuo winked his eyebrows at Zhu Yi, meaning that she was coming to you. She is now Yan Fengqin and Xie Ying who are not helping. Let them each rely on their abilities to see who can hold the beauty.

Zhu Yiluo lowered her head in embarrassment, but Chang Lin helped her get the skates. It was natural that she couldn't say anything, but Zhu Chuo was always separated from Yan Fengqin.

At the edge of Taixu Pool, Yan Fengqin said, "Princess wait a minute." He jumped onto the ice and knocked on the ice layer with the top of the scabbard to make sure that the ice layer was thick enough before letting Zhu and Yi go up.

Zhu Yi took off the cumbersome phoenix hairpin on his head, and also pulled out the four aquarium flower tins, and handed them to Mianfeng to hold them. After relaxing the muscles and bones, he slid out lightly like a butterfly.

Ping Ping curls, the wind returns to the snow.

Yan Fengqin's gaze followed the slender figure who was hard to hide in winter clothes. It was obvious that Zhu Yi hadn't made any movement. He could see the feeling of flamboyant like orchids eager to attract spring, with sleeves as the wind and soft waist.

The only pity is that Zhu Yi’s ice-walking skills are too superb, and it seems that he has no chance to appear as a hero to save the United States.

Yan Fengqin was in a trance, a light sneer appeared in his ear.

He turned his head and saw Xie Ying leaning back on a horned plum not far away, also admiring it.

"Wow." When Zhu Chuo saw that both Xie Ying and Yan Fengqin were guarding Zhu Yi, and he could feel the atmosphere of rattling swords from a distance, he immediately made up for the big show.

She slid to Zhu Yi and said, "Yi Yi, you said they wouldn't fight for you?" If this is to let the elite circle of Beijing know that Xie Ying and Yan Fengqin are jealous for her family's youngest third, I don't know what kind of uproar will be caused, it must be the hottest. Gossip.

Unexpectedly, when Zhu Yi heard that Xie Ying was going to fight for her again, his feet were stagnant, and the whole person suddenly fell to Zhu Chuo. The speed was too fast. When Xie Ying rushed over, the two sisters were already crying and falling into a ball.

After Zhu Yi and Zhu Chuo were picked up, they didn't want to skate anymore, and went back to Changning Garden to accompany the Queen Mother. After all, they all know that the Queen Mother likes to be lively.

The Queen Mother was watching Aunt Fangqin and Zhu Jing sitting beside her making dumplings at the Eight Immortals table in the corner. Zhu Yi and Zhu Chuo also cleaned their hands and helped together. After a while, Zhu Dai and Yan Yu'er also came back, and they both stepped forward to play with flour. After all, such an opportunity was really rare.

The queen mother smiled and said, "I think the dumplings made by Xiaoning are pretty good. You guys are pinching something."

As soon as the Queen Mother had finished speaking, a servant from outside came in to report that someone had come from the palace. The queen mother is called to pass.

The visitor was the **** of Qiantai Palace. He knelt down and maintained a salute posture and said: "The minister has heard the empress dowager and told the queen mother, this morning, the empress has passed away."

Because the **** was kneeling and suppressing her voice, the little girl's laughter in the room did not stop until the queen mother asked again: "What did you say?"

"Encourage the Empress Dowager, the Queen Mother, she passed away this morning."

Shrouded in weird silence, several princesses reacted, all in shock.

Ju Dai suddenly made a sharp voice: "Who did you say died? Empress Empress? My mother is so good, how could she die? You are talking nonsense!"

The queen mother ordered someone to hold on to Zhu Dai who came forward and beat the servant, Zhu Dai was pulled away, she was shaking all over, and she shouted no, but she knew it was true in her heart.

Then the queen mother asked in a deep voice: "Why, the queen did not have a serious illness."

The emperor ordered the empress to block the cause of the queen’s death. The **** did not dare to say directly, so the queen mother ordered him to whisper to Fangqin to report: “It’s one of these Taoists who entered the palace to practice evil spirits. He drew a dagger from the handle of the whisk to stab the empress empress... the empress was stabbed in her breast, and when the imperial doctor arrived, it was already... the Taoist priest immediately killed herself."

"Biao, cousin, cousin..." Zhu Dai's face was full of tears, she stumbled and walked out of the house, grabbed Xie Ying's sleeve, and cried loudly.

Xie Ying, Xie Shao, Yan Fengqin, the three men all stood upright in the corridor of the outer hall into the warm pavilion, and in the shadows, no one could see clearly.

After all, the queen Xie Zining's surname is Xie. Everyone knows that the prince Wei Ning's son and the Yujun king are still in Beijing. The daughter of the Xie family, the prince's biological mother, and the Queen of the Palace actually died by being stabbed.
