Chapter 90 Sour Yoyo
Walking through the corridor and passing through the building, leaving the sparsely-seen Changle Palace, the Empress Dowager leaned slanted on the chariot, and her hands supported her chin and looked a little lazy. She saw Mrs. Lu standing at the palace gate from afar.
What surprised the Queen Mother was that she thought Mrs. Lu would look sour and sarcastic when she saw her, but she didn't expect that Mrs. Lu had dressed up carefully today.
Wearing a light green water cloud long skirt, a gauze shawl on the bend of arms and hands folded around the waist, she stood tall and graceful, with a tender and tender taste of an unmarried girl. Her makeup was neither thick nor light, her red lips were extremely eye-catching, a white jade pendant was hanging in her ears, and a drooping cloud bun was hanging on her head. Even the hairpin customized by the Lu family hired a famous Jiangnan artist when she got married, she took out and put it on.
The workmanship cost of the golden and jade-inlaid flower-tail hairpin is no worse than that of the Queen Mother's phoenix crown. It is considered a bride price for the two families of Xiao Lu. It is the only one in this world. The Queen Mother wanted to take a look at her before and didn't give her any gift. It is the lifeblood of Mrs. Lu. Even if she looked at her, she was afraid that she would be broken. It is the first time she wore it out in so many years. Outside the palace city, there were several Xiao family guests. It seems that she was worried that the hairpin would be snatched by a bold thief.
Bu Yan stopped inside the palace gate. The empress dowager was a little puzzled. She looked at Mrs. Lu, who was standing in place and trying to keep her breathing evenly, and said, "
"Hongluan, I'm dressed so grandly, can't I get ready to remarry? I can't make the decision on this matter, so I have to go to find Xiao Xiang and Lord Lu."
"spit-"
Mrs. Lu heard these inappropriate words and came to Huo'er, but today she was unable to get angry and destroyed her makeup and temperament, so she did not even change her expression, and said calmly:
"If you have something to do, please contact the Queen Mother, and ask the Queen Mother to accompany me out of the palace."
"Where are you going? I am busy with business operations every day, but I am not interested in accompanying you for a walk."
The empress dowager leaned on the carved chariot and had no intention of getting up. After walking in and looking at it, she realized that Mrs. Lu was really arrogant today. Not only was her temperament and makeup impeccable, but she didn't even have any flaws on her skirt. Yue Nu was also paying attention to it carefully, for fear that the dress she had finally sorted out would have any wrinkles and would have to be reworked.
Mrs. Lu tried her best to restrain her emotions. She didn't mention the anger a few days ago. She walked up to her and whispered: "Xu Danqing has returned to Chang'an. I found out that she had lived in Song Jijiu's house. You know Xu Danqing, let him draw a picture for me..."
"puff--"
Before he finished speaking, the queen mother smiled and shook her lips with her red sleeves, looking up and down with a little teasing: "Hongluan, Hongluan, you are married, you are about the same age as me, and you are still thinking about competing with the young girl for the eight beauties of Zhaohong. Are you ashamed?"
Mrs. Lu's familiar and beautiful cheeks turned a little red, and she was a little annoyed, but she couldn't speak up to refute. Naturally, she wouldn't have thought about competing for fame with a 14 or 15-year-old girl, and she couldn't use it. But a few days ago, the empress dowager gave Xu Danqing's painting to Xu Buling, who obviously liked it very much and hid it under the bed. She had nothing to give, and she didn't even let go of this tone. Xu Danqing finally showed up, so how could she miss the opportunity given to God?
Mrs. Lu hesitated and snorted: "I met Xu Danqing back then, but I was still young and couldn't draw... Anyway, I want a painting, so it doesn't matter whether I have a reputation or not. The Empress Dowager will take me there."
The queen mother supported her chin and raised her eyebrows: "Why should I promise you? Well~?"
This is deliberately provoking trouble.
Mrs. Lu glared at the Queen Mother for a few times, thought for a while, and said coldly: "The Queen Mother stays in the palace all day long, so she is not afraid of getting sick. I will accompany you out for a break, what's wrong?"
The Empress Dowager sneered and knew that what Mrs. Lu was thinking about was Xuan He Bakui’s business. She looked like she was not concerned about her own affairs, and turned her head to look at the clouds in the sky.
Mrs. Lu took a breath, thought about it carefully, and took a rare step back: "The Queen Mother accompanied me to go there, and I will return the Huaer to the Queen Mother."
"I have no shame to take back the things I gave." The Empress Dowager was indifferent and thought for a moment: "How about this, you can let Xu Buling..."
"no."
Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Lu was very serious and stern. Last time, Xu Buling entered the palace, she was messing around and giving things, and left the peony flowers she gave to her in the palace. She was so angry that she had been sleeping these days, and she was polite to not come to quarrel with the queen mother. How could Xu Buling enter the palace again? What if she really changed her words and called the queen mother aunt in a few days?
Mrs. Lu looked uncontroversial and snorted faintly: "How can a man enter the palace often? The empress dowager should pay attention to his identity."
The Empress Dowager was not surprised to see Mrs. Lu's reaction, and she looked like she was 'not discussing with you': "Tinger Linger is all my juniors. Why not let them come to visit me from time to time? I told you that it was because of the fact that you didn't agree. If I asked him to come, he would still have to come."
Mrs. Lu narrowed her eyes slightly: "If I don't let Ling'er come, he will definitely not come. He will listen to me the most."
The Empress Dowager sighed: "Hongluan, it's not me who said to you. Ling Erjing, you can obey your own words. If you are so unreasonable, even the most obedient person will be disgusted sooner or later. At that time, tsk tsk tsk tsk... He calls you aunt, you are her aunt. If he doesn't call you, you will have nothing to do, alas~..."
This was the heart of Mrs. Lu. What she was most worried about was this. She pursed her lips and wanted to refute: "How could Ling'er bother me?" But after thinking about it for a while, she endured it and said calmly:
"Ling'er has his own opinion. If he wants to enter the palace, Xiaoshu, I will not interfere... hurry up."
The empress dowager raised her slender eyebrows and then stood up satisfied, walked out of the palace gate in a manner, stretching out her arms.
Mrs. Lu looked disgusted, but she had to bow her head if she wanted someone. After thinking about it, she took the empress dowager's arm without sincerity and walked towards the carriage:
"If Xu Danqing doesn't draw, the Empress Dowager will threaten him. If he dares not agree, hum..."
The Empress Dowager looked embarrassed: "How can this be done? He is a famous talent. If I force him to draw, it will be fine if it spreads..."
Mrs. Lu narrowed her eyes slightly, with a little mocking: "This is not the first time you have done this. When Xu Danqing went to paint Miss Xiao Er, you insisted on letting someone change it to paint you..."
The Queen Mother paused and turned around and was about to walk back.
"Hey...!" Mrs. Lu was angry and gritted her teeth. She had to stop talking, spread her hands and pointed at the carriage: "Please, Empress Dowager!"
“This is almost the same…”
