Chapter 146 (2/2)

I don't know whose little girl, maybe because she was too nervous, suddenly fainted.

Gu Jiu subconsciously wants to go over, just raised the foot, just woke up God, here is the palace, can't mess.

The raised foot came back, and no one found it.

A maid came in to check the situation. She fainted and carried her away.

The little girl's mother, angry and angry, could not break out. Can only follow the palace maid together out of the side hall.

Seeing this, Xie's heart beat abnormally fast.

She asked Zhang in a whisper, ”can that lady come back?”

Zhang said: ”if I can finish it before Chaohe, I can still come back. It's just, it's hard on the little girl. In the future, people will inevitably mention it. I'm afraid I can't marry into a high family. ” Most can only marry low.

The last sentence, Zhang did not say. She is afraid to frighten Xie and Gu Shan and Gu Jiu.

As for Gu Yue's engagement, it's not so important.

What a slow time.

This is everyone's idea.

But even so, everyone has to bear it.

As the day dawned, the first day of the new year opened.

The side hall is burning a dragon, warm, but not cold.

It's just that time is hard. Many people quietly move their bodies and change into more comfortable positions.

There's another movement out there.An internal servant entered the supporting hall and said, ”Niang Niang has just come back from the Taiji palace after receiving all kinds of official greetings. Ladies, please get ready and follow me to the main hall to pay tribute to the empress. ”

Someone obviously knew the Chamberlain and said in a voice, ”thank you very much, Mr. Wang.”

”You are welcome, madam.”

The internal servant, known as Wang Changshi, left the supporting hall and went to work.

Zhang reminded everyone, ”keep your spirits up. When the celebration of the next hall is over, it will be our turn. ”

Yue said, ”my niece is very nervous.”

Zhang said with a smile, ”don't be afraid. It will be over soon. ”

Gu Yue nods, or a pair of aggrieved appearance.

Xie Shi sees form, frown, murmured, ”make this pair of appearance to who to see? Is it difficult to enter the palace to pay tribute to you? Are you still aggrieved? Let the palace people see, what will they think? If you think you are disrespectful to the queen, do you think about the consequences? You don't stop when you get to the palace. Are you afraid that you can't involve the whole family? ”

Gu Yue opened his mouth, opened his mouth, and finally did not make a sound.

Zhang also reminded her, ”quickly put away your expression, how does mammy teach you? Be respectful! Don't think it doesn't matter what it's going to do. There are so many people here. If they are seen by everyone, they will not be able to bear it. ”

Gu Yue whispered, ”I know.”

She did not dare to be aggrieved any more, nor did she dare to make a pathetic expression. She imitated Gu Shan's appearance and tried to show her respect.

As time went by, it was their turn.

Gu Jiu follows Zhang's back, goes out of the side hall with a low eyebrow and goes to the main hall to celebrate.

When I came before, I couldn't see my fingers in the dark. You can't see anything.

The sky was bright, and Lu Zhan looked around with the rest of his eyes. The Weiyang palace was big, but it seemed a little simple and a little bleak.

The snow on the ground has been swept away, no residue.

Following the direction of the Chamberlain, we entered the hall and stood in turn. Then follow the orders of the Chamberlain to celebrate the Queen's new year.

”Cough...”

In front of the hall, came bursts of coughing, coughing heart and lung.

However, none of them raised their heads and looked in front of the hall.

It's not that I don't want to, but I dare not and can't.

Gu Jiu lowered his head, no accident, the sound of cough, must be the empress.

She listened to the cough. The Queen's health is not good.

I'm afraid the rumors are right. The Queen's time is coming. To be able to stay until the new year, I have to say that I have tried my best.

The cough finally stopped, and there was a little movement from above.

After a while, I heard the empress say, ”no ceremony!”

This is a very weak but powerful voice. She is worthy of being the empress who has presided over the harem for decades.

Even when the oil has run out and the lamp is dry, it can still frighten people's hearts and make all kinds of careerists afraid to jump out easily.

After the pilgrimage, everyone came to the side hall with the internal servants.

No matter how big the main hall is, the number of people it can hold is limited.

In the side hall, the sound of the main hall could also be heard.

The empress is chatting with the royal family members and super ladies.

Listening to everyone's laughter, the atmosphere seemed very good.

Gu Jiu thinks it's OK. When the empress finishes speaking, the next step is to go directly to the Palace Banquet.

But unexpectedly, a maid of honor came to the side hall in a hurry, and said in a loud voice, ”where is Mrs. Gu, the general of the town?”

Xie's family is still in a state of muddle. When the maiden said that she was a general of the town, she really didn't react at that moment.

Or Zhang's quick reaction, quickly stood up, ”here.”

The maid of the palace swept her eyes and looked after her family

Zhang's pinched Xie's, ”sister-in-law, what are you still in a daze to do, hurry up. Xiao Jiu, you three sisters are right behind me. You must be careful. ”

Gu nine nods, ”big aunt is at ease.”

Xie stood up in a hurry, too flustered.

”Sister in law, why does she want to see us?”

”Maybe it's because of the Hou's residence.” Zhang's just a guess.

Gu Jiu pays attention to Gu Yue and Gu Shan, and is also afraid that they will make mistakes in front of the empress.

The five followed the maids to the center of the main hall.

”See the queen!”

We all saluted and respectfully.

The old lady, Wei Shi, said with a smile, ”my mother, these are the two nieces and daughters-in-law and three nieces and granddaughters in the other room.”

Empress Cui narrowed her eyes and looked at them carefully. ”Several girls look really good. They all come to me and let me have a closer look.”

The maiden asked Gu Jiu to come forward.

Gu Jiu takes the lead and passes over the Xie family of Zhang family and leads Gu Yue. Gu Shan comes to see him.”The courtiers see the empress, and the empress is very lucky.”

”Well!”

Empress Cui is in full swing. Gu Yue and Gu Shanlong's hands in the sleeves are shaking all the time.

”Look up and let this palace have a look.”

It's the first time to see empress Cui close.

The skin color is sallow, the hair is dry and yellow, and the cheek is thin to hollow. The body is thin and weak, and the court clothes are all over the body.

This is Gu Jiu's first impression of empress Cui.

But the most frightening thing for Gu Jiu is empress Cui's eyes. The eyes are shining, which seems to be full of the sun, moon and stars, full of about a hundred years.

It was a pair of what a wise, and how fierce eyes ah.

Gu Jiu not only saw the ambition and ambition of empress Cui, but also saw the ferocity, cunning and killing contained in it.

If empress Cui holds the military power, Gu Jiu has no doubt that she will kill those ambitious wolves before she dies, trying to defeat all kinds of careerists of the prince's highness.

Maybe she would even dare to kill the emperor.

This is not alarmism.

Gu Jiuzhen saw all this from empress Cui's eyes.

It seems that Gu Jiu has observed empress Cui for a long time. In fact, it is only two or three seconds. Also looked at so one eye, Gu Jiu hastily clasps the eyelid, a pair of submissive appearance.

Empress Cui nodded, ”what's your name? How old is it? ”

Gu Jiu bows to say: ”reply to Niang, Minister female single name nine, fifteen.”

”Have you made a marriage?”

”Not yet

Empress Cui laughed. ”You are very good. Please step down.”

”Yes

Gu Jiu bowed down, Gu Yue and Gu Shan also followed.

It seems that the empress called three people to the front, just to observe Gu Jiu.
