With the crowing of the chickens, the sun rose slowly from the east, casting its light upon the earth, illuminating every corner of it. A new day had begun.
"Miss, wake up, someone from the palace is coming. Master wants you to go to the front hall, wake up!"
I was sleeping soundly when Liu'er woke me up. Aiya, this girl is always so energetic, can't you be more refined like her young miss?
"Liu'er, why do you keep disturbing my beautiful dreams? I was just dreaming that I was going on a date with a handsome cauldron of prawns, and now that you're making such a ruckus, my handsome pot is gone. You compensate me with my handsome cauldron of prawns."
"Aiyo, my lady. Liu'er, I'm begging you. Hurry up and get up. It's Eunuch Wu by the emperor's side today. If you go and eat, you'll offend him."
Lil pulled me up and sat me on the edge of the bed, helping me dress. What? Eunuch Wu by the emperor's side? A legendary eunuch? It seems that the heavens have been kind to me. I've only been here for a short while, and I can actually see a eunuch. Haha!
"Miss, don't just stand there. Quickly sit down, Liu'er will help you with your makeup."
While I was still in YY, Liu had already dressed me, pulled me to the dressing table and sat me down. Then she helped me with my makeup, saying that Liu's technique was really good, and in less than a quarter of an hour she had finished dressing me, and then led me to the front hall.
When I got to the front hall, I went in. My father and Eunuch Wu were sitting on it while my mother and two of my brothers were sitting on it. Eunuch Wu held the horsetail whisk in his hand, his hair tied up with a golden hairpin. He wore a red eunuch's uniform, and a pair of brown shoes. His skin was very white and exquisite, like a boiled egg.
When Dad saw me walk in, he stood up and pointed at me, "Eunuch, this is my daughter, Xiao Yue. Xiao Yue, quickly come and greet Eunuch!"
Hearing his words, I slowly walked in a ladylike manner and bowed slightly. "Xiaoyue greets Eunuch Wu."
Eunuch Wu hurriedly stood up and said, "Our family cannot bear such a great gift. I've long heard that Miss Lan is a beauty capable of toppling empires. I've heard of her well-deserved reputation today."
Damn it, I didn't believe it when I saw a story about a eunuch in a novel. Now I finally believe it.
"Thank you for your praise, Eunuch. Xiaoyue is just a thin willow. She can't be called a devastatingly beautiful woman." I fought the cold and smiled back.
"Miss Lan, you're too modest. Since Miss Lan is here, we shall announce it." Eunuch Wu picked up the imperial edict that was on the young eunuch's tray as he spoke.
"The imperial edict has arrived. The nation's great general, Lan Jinchen, has received it."
"This humble subject accepts the decree!" Pop was the first to lift his coat and kneel down, and we all knelt behind him. Pitiful little knees!
"With the blessing of the heavens, on the Emperor's Mandate, Lan Xiaoyue, daughter of the Great General of the Kingdom Lan Jinchen, dexterous and delicate, pure and elegant in character, outstanding in talent and talent. This volume is called 'True Fourth Grade Gongyu', bestowed the title of Moon, bestowed the Purple Cloud Pavilion, and entered the palace on the sixth day of this month."
"This humble subject accepts the decree and thanks the lord for his graciousness. Long live the Martial Monarch for ten thousand years." His father took the imperial edict and kowtowed again.
"Congratulations, General Lan. Congratulations Yue Yu." Eunuch Wu cupped his hands and said with a smile.
The old man smiled and said, "Same to you, same to me. In the future, I will have to trouble you to take care of me when I stay at the palace."
Eunuch Wu raised his slender fingers and replied with a smile, "Definitely. Yue Rui is extremely beautiful and talented. She will be heavily favored by the emperor once she enters the palace. She will be bestowed the title of 'Consort' soon."
"This old man wishes to make use of this eunuch's words. Please sit and have a cup of tea before I leave."
"No, it's getting late. We should return to the palace to report."
"If that's the case, then this old man will not ask you to stay any longer. This is a little gift from this old man, please accept it with a smile." As the old man spoke, he took the wooden box covered with red cloth and passed it to Eunuch Wu.
Eunuch Wu beamed as he received the wooden box and said to his father, "Then thank you, General Lan. We will take our leave now."
"Take care, eunuch."
Nani? The cover was made of fresh blood? You still want to enter the palace? I heard that the Imperial Palace is a place where people kill but not kill each other. If I were to occasionally go there, I would most likely lose my life. God must have seen that I was living too happily now, envious and jealous of the hate, so to do this to me, although occasionally also want to go to the famous world of the palace to visit the said.
Furthermore, the most tragic thing was that Gongyu was the emperor's wife, which meant that I have to fight with many other women for a husband. Or should I fight with Little San, or should I fight with them over a husband, or should I fight with them over a husband? No, as a little girl, I might be tricked by those women, and the more I think about it, the more I feel sad, the more I feel helpless, and the more I think about it, the more I feel sad and indignant I feel.
However, if he did not enter the palace, he would become disrespectful and implicate his father and the others. He was an orphan in his previous life, and it was difficult for him to love his family so dearly. No matter what, he could not implicate them. Yue Er, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell somewhere? " My mother asked when she saw me standing there in a daze.
I raised the corner of my mouth to reveal a brilliant smile. "Mother, I'm fine. I'm just overjoyed."
What was there to be happy about? The young mistress was about to give up.
"It's good that you're fine. There are still five days until you enter the palace. In these five days, your big brother and second brother will bring you out to play." said the old man kindly.
"That's right, the three of us have to take advantage of this opportunity to go out and play. Otherwise, it would be difficult for us to see you again after you enter the palace."
His big brother and second brother both had a regretful expression.
"En, Yue Er understands. Father and mother, I am a little tired, so I will first go back to my room to rest. Today's lunch and dinner should be served by Liu'er to my room."
I said hello to Dad and the others and left. He went back to my room and lay down on the bed. Then he covered his head with the blanket. He didn't think of anything else and directly fell asleep.
It was very comfortable to sleep without anyone to disturb me. I slept until the sun had set before I woke up. Not long after I woke up, Liu'er came in with some food.
"Miss, it's time for dinner. Tonight is your favorite Sweet 'n' Sour Ribs." Liu'er set the dishes on the table, then picked up the coat on the hanger and gave it to me.
"Yes, little Liu'er." I said to Willow, smiling as I dressed.
"Miss only knows how to tease Liu'er." Liu'er's face was slightly red as she whispered.
Haha, this girl sure is easy to blush. Looking at her cute appearance, I decided to tease her.
I smiled evilly as I walked in front of Liu'er and used my fingers to lift up her sharp chin. I said with a smile, "Little beauty, give me a smile."
Liu'er was stunned by my sudden action. She stared at me with her large, watery eyes.
I continued to laugh evilly as I said, "If this little beauty doesn't laugh at me, then this elder will laugh at you, hehehe!"
I deliberately smirked. Liu'er was still in a daze. It was only after I waved my hand in front of her face a few times did she come back to her senses.
"Miss is so bad, you only know how to bully Liu'er. Hmph, Liu'er won't bother with you anymore." Willow stomped and turned her back to me.
Aiyo, I overdid it. Our little beauty Liu'er is angry.
"Aiya, Liu'er, don't be angry, don't ignore me. I know my wrongs, I won't dare to do it again. If Lady Liu'er is magnanimous, please forgive me this time, eh?"
At my words, Willow slowly turned around and looked at me. "Really? Miss won't bully Liu'er anymore? "
"It's true. Even pearls are not as real as this." I nodded.
"Humph!" Liu's eyes were fixed on me, and her face clearly said 'I don't believe it!'
"Then what do you want to believe?" This willow is too hard to coax, isn't it?
"Yes, it wouldn't be difficult for Liu'er to believe you, unless you swear that if Miss bullies Liu'er again in the future, there will be no sweet and sour pork to eat." The little girl squinted her eyes and said.
F * * k me, swear? You can think of it, why didn't I notice that this girl is so black? She looks like a little white rabbit, so harmless, so pure and good.
"Alright, I occasionally swear that if I occasionally bully Liu'er in the future, I'll let the occasional tree have sweet and sour pork to eat."
It's the closest thing to a chop, don't go!
"Yeah, that's more like it." That guy nodded in satisfaction and revealed his white teeth with a smile. No matter how he looked at it, it seemed to be an eyesore.
I have never seen such an aggrieved young lady being bullied into turning purple by a servant girl. I would never believe that a little white rabbit would never bite again. Wuuuuuuu, my grief turned into appetite. After the meal and bath, I sat on the couch in a daze, Liu'er sat on the other side of the red.
I felt a pang of frustration at the thought of going to court.
"Are you unhappy, miss? Why did you sigh all night? "
Listen to me, N
After a sigh, Liu'er finally couldn't help but ask.
"I'm definitely unhappy. To think that I would be able to enter the palace and marry such a flowery husband. To think that I would have to be the same man as so many women. How sad would it be for me to be happy?" I said plaintively.
"Liu'er, look. Of all the people in the Hao Yue Country, you are the only one who doesn't want to enter the palace. If it were someone else, they would have already been overjoyed." Liu'er took the needle and thread in her hand and embroidered two times. She shook her head.
"What's so good about the emperor?" There's only one Blossom Heart Radish. " I snorted.
"Marrying the Emperor is great. The current Emperor is young, handsome, and possesses both the arts and the arts. He has money and power, and he's the ideal man that countless women dream of."
As she spoke of the emperor, Liu'er had an expression of adoration on her face, as if she was infatuated with him.
"That's because they're retarded, why don't you marry them?"
"Miss, this is impossible, Liu'er only wants to stay by Miss's side. Even if you want to marry her, you can only marry an ordinary mortal. Miss, didn't you tell Liu'er that the handsome pot is only for appreciation?"
Liu'er put away her infatuated look and waved her hands.
Liu and I chatted until our eyelids were in a fight before we climbed into bed.
The next morning, I was miserably dug out of bed by Liu'er again. I yawned and let Liu'er help me with my makeup like a puppet.
After dressing up, I went to the front hall for breakfast. Dad went to the morning court, while brother went to the palace to be on duty. Second brother had matters to attend to so he went out to eat breakfast.
In less than half an incense's time, many people had arrived at the mansion. There were tailors for making clothes and craftsmen for making jewelry, and like a puppet, I had the tailor measure my size, and then I jumped over a variety of fabrics, silks, brocades, and all kinds of precious and luxurious fabrics. I had to choose my own style of jewelry, and it took me nearly two hours to finish choosing all of them.
