tscritgt said that after Jin Zhu talked to her father, she made a look of preparation for marriage at home with peace of mind, except for going to her mother's place in the morning and evening to ask for peace and accompany her mother to eat two meals, she generally did not go out the rest of the time, just stayed in her yard, either reading books or being a female celebrity.And the female celebrity work she did was not for herself, but for her parents, because she knew that she would not stay here for too long, and she wanted to do more filial piety for her parents.Besides, after Jin Ruiyu and Jin Zhu talked, Zai thought carefully for three days, and then called Jin Zhe into the outer study, and the father and son had a secret talk, as for what they said, outsiders had no way of knowing.Coming out of the outer study, Jin Ruiyu entered Jin Zhu's courtyard, and when she saw him enter the door, Jin Zhu thought that he had something to explain to herself, and was about to send the maid in the house away, when Jin Ruiyu stopped her.It turned out that he only came this time to ask Jin Zhu what he was busy with these days, whether he was in better health, etc.Seeing this, Jin Zhu didn't ask his father how he chose how to arrange it, but just took out the clothes he made for his father and changed them for his father himself, the father and daughter laughed for a while, played a game of chess, and Jin Ruiyu left.Because his father's attitude was a little unpredictable, Jin Zhu still hung in his heart for two days, but it happened that the Mid-Autumn Festival arrived in two days.On this night, the emperor still holds a grand moon worship event in the New Year's Prayer Hall, praying for good weather and peace in the coming year, and all the court officials above the third grade in the capital must participate, and the queen will hold a grand moon worship event in the imperial garden, and all the court women above the third grade in the capital must enter the palace.In the past, Jin Zhu would usually accompany his mother on such days, and occasionally stay to talk to the Queen Mother or the Queen, but now Jin Zhu should be out of the cabinet in less than 20 days, and he should no longer show his face at this time.The news came a little suddenly, Jin Zhu wanted to talk to someone but couldn't find anyone, because Jin Zhe didn't return last night, Jin Ruiyu entered the palace early in the morning, and there was only one general's wife left in the house, and Jin Zhu didn't want to bother her mother.Besides, the eunuch came to the door to announce the queen mother's decree, and Jin Zhu couldn't resist the decree and disrespect, so he could only take one step at a time.Changing into a pink and purple wide-sleeved cedar, Jin Zhu followed her mother into the carriage, and when the carriage stopped outside the palace gate, she met many acquaintances, although everyone was a little curious and questioning about the appearance of Jin Zhu, but because of her identity, no one asked directly, and Jin Zhu naturally did not take the initiative to explain, her attention was more focused on the surrounding environment.The palace has always been a heavily guarded place, three steps and a sentry, five steps and a post, in addition to a lot of dark and bright posts, Jin Zhu carefully observed, compared with the past, there seems to be no difference, and his heart is slightly relieved.Under the guidance of the eunuch, Jin Zhu helped his mother into the imperial garden, at that time the sun had not completely set, the figure in the imperial garden was longing, the river was endless, the open space by the lake had been placed a few short tables, which were arranged in strict accordance with the rank, the first one was naturally the queen mother, followed by the queen, and then the four major concubines and the princes and princesses, followed by the nine concubines and the princesses of each county, and then the first order, the second and third orders.At that time, the four concubines, the queen and the queen mother in front of them were empty, and there were only a few people sitting in the positions of the prince and princess and the princess of the county and the nine concubines.Of course, it is not a real sitting, and a straw mat will be placed in front of each low table, and people can only sit cross-legged on the straw mat.After the two sat down, the general's wife chatted with two acquaintances on the side, Jin Zhu first glanced around, saw that the people who came were basically the same familiar faces as in previous years, and then looked at a few offerings on the low table, and it was the same as in previous years, four kinds of fruits, four kinds of snacks plus an incense burner.It's strange to say, everything in front of her is what Jin Zhu used to be familiar with, counting this is the sixth time she has accompanied her mother into the palace to worship the moon, whether it is the offerings on the low table or the roughly familiar faces around, even including the guards with knives all the way before entering the imperial garden, there is no change from the past, but Jin Zhu just felt a little uneasy for some reason.Fortunately, it didn't take long for there to be movement in front, it was the queen who helped the queen mother's old man over, followed by a bunch of concubines and palace maids.Speaking of the queen mother, she should not be an old man, her age is about forty-five years old, she is the biological mother of the current emperor, it is said that there are quite some means, from a five-grade talent step by step to a first-grade concubine, and finally helped her son sit on the dragon chair, and she also became the most noble queen mother of the Great Zhou Dynasty.In her previous life, Jin Zhu had contact with the Queen Mother a few times, and the other party left her in the palace to talk to her and relieve her boredom and reward her with something from time to time, not only Jin Zhu, but even Jin Zhu's mother thought that the Queen Mother was interested in Jin Zhu, because the emperor had just ascended the throne at that time, and the court was unstable, in order to get Jin Ruiyu's support, the Queen Mother was very likely to use a concubine to buy and win him over.But who knew that the emperor played a bigger game of chess and promised her to King Kang, and then Jin Zhu did not enter the palace again.However, why is this life different from the previous life, have they found something Jinzhu was thinking hard, and suddenly felt a pair of hands pushing herself, and it turned out that her mother pulled her to stand up and stepped forward to greet the Queen Mother.Jin Zhu followed everyone to curtsy, and as soon as she straightened up, the Queen Mother's eyes fell on her and beckoned to her, and Jin Zhu had no choice but to step forward and bow again."
A few days ago, the mourning family heard your mother say that you occasionally felt a little sick, and now how is your body recovering?"
”"That's good, the mourning family also misses you, and also wants you to listen to play two tunes, so they specially sent someone to pick you up, and the mourning family is confused, forgetting that you will be out of the cabinet in a few days, this person is old, and it is useless."
This is the Queen Mother's special explanation to Jin Zhu to everyone why Jin Zhu appeared here, but this explanation is a bit far-fetched.How many people are there around the Queen Mother, King Kang gave a dowry gift to the General's Mansion with great fanfare ten days ago, how could he forget that she was going out of the cabinet, "Go back to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother is not old, let alone confused, the Queen Mother is pushing the old and bringing forth the new to everyone."
Rules are dead, people are alive, how can people be stuck by some unreasonable rules," Jin Zhu bowed and replied.It was very risky to say this, but she really didn't know how to answer, she couldn't stay silent, let alone echo the other party's words, so she could only find an excuse for the other party to go back against her will."
Queen Mother, I said early that Miss Jin is a very smart woman, not only can she afford to play the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but what is even more rare is this ingenuity.The queen stepped forward and took Jin Zhu's hand and said with a smile."
Back to the queen's mother, the courtiers have always been stupid, but fortunately, the queen mother's old man and the queen do not dislike it, and they have trained the courtiers a lot, and the courtiers are grateful."
Jin Zhu didn't know how to pick up the other party's words, so he had to send another mother or hurt the third brother more, and personally protected this big medium for the third brother, the third brother would wake up laughing when he dreamed." ”Someone chimed in.This echo was full of gossips and everything, completely ignoring Jin Zhu's increasingly embarrassed face with his head down.Fortunately, soon there was music and drumming, which was a reminder that the sun had set, the moon had risen, the moon had begun, and everyone had found their places to sit.When everything was ready, the priest on the high platform in front of the left stepped out and recited a prayer to the moon, which was followed by a moon dance, and the sky was already gray after the dance.At this time, the priest walked out again with torches, which meant that the moon worship ceremony had officially begun.First of all, the queen mother took a few sticks of incense and lit three bows to the moon and inserted it into the incense burner, and then everyone followed the incense and lit three bows into the incense burner, after lighting the incense, the master of ceremonies began to read the sacrificial text again, and each time he read a paragraph, he would pause, and in the interval of the pause, everyone would perform three kneeling and nine bowing bows.Jin Zhu kowtowed and prayed earnestly to the moon, wishing that his parents would be healthy; Second, I wish King Kang a great victory; Three wishes that the husband will see each other year after year, in this life, she does not seek wealth and glory, but only wants to be able to return to Li Xiang's side.After reading this sacrificial text, the ceremony of three kneeling and nine bowing is over, reasoning, usually at this time the women can retire, but this time it is not, the deacon eunuch said that the queen mother and the queen please stay and enjoy the moon together.Since it is such an elegant thing as admiring the moon, how can it not be accompanied by elegant piano and vocal music, so the queen proposed to let several ladies in the capital play a few tunes for everyone, and everyone picked up their own good play.The first one to play is naturally the golden bead ordered by the Queen Mother, at this time she is still unmarried, she is a girl, and the next time she enters the palace, she is the identity of the prince and princess, so it is not suitable to play the piano for everyone anymore.At this point, Jin Zhu understood that something must have happened, and there should be something wrong for the other party to notice first.But there was no turning back from the bow, and she had no way out.Jin Zhu stood up, walked to the front again, and was just about to take the piano from the palace maid's hand, when the Queen Mother spoke, "Come on, send Miss Jin to the pavilion in the middle of the lake to play the piano, this listening to the piano is the same as playing the piano, it is also exquisite, and there can be no distractions and noises." ”"Yes, obey the orders of the Queen Mother."
Jin Zhu took the piano and curtsied again, and then walked up the bridge in the eyes of everyone and walked towards the pavilion in the middle of the lake.The pavilion in the middle of the lake was laid with a straw mat, and a low table was placed on the straw mat, on which there were also several offerings and incense burners, in addition to a pair of floor lamps.Jin Zhu sat down cross-legged, lit a few sticks of incense and inserted them into the incense burner, then tried the strings, then took a deep breath, brewed for a minute, got rid of distracting thoughts, and played a song of Spring River Flower and Moon Night for the occasion, because this song is the best portrayal of her mood at the moment.At the end of the song, when Jin Zhu got up to return to his original position, he suddenly heard someone on the high platform shouting "Walking water", and it was still walking in the water at the New Year's Palace.The scene suddenly became a little chaotic, although most of the women present were women, and they were a group of women raised in the boudoir, but their sensitivity was no less than those men outside, this kind of important day walking, and then linked to the abnormality of the Queen Mother and the Queen today, everyone could easily guess that something major was going to happen.Soon, the fire rushing from the east confirmed everyone's suspicions, and now it was even more chaotic.As soon as Jin Zhu heard the sound of running water, he pulled his skirt and quickly kicked out the two floor lamps around him, and then quickly ran up the bridge and rushed to his mother's side, and when everyone didn't react, he took his mother's hand and ran to the dark and deep remote place.When she first came, she had already aimed at the way out, and the women who came to the Imperial Garden today were basically women, and those guards with knives only guarded a few intersections into the Imperial Garden, and there were no three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry.Therefore, when the Queen Mother and the Empress ordered the eunuchs and guards to surround these people and take them to the pavilion in the middle of the lake to guard them, Jinzhu and her mother had already run to hide in the bushes behind a rockery.She is not afraid of death, but she can't let her mother die in vain."
Son, what the hell is going on" The mother touched her heart, which jumped to her throat."
Mother, I don't know exactly what happened, I know that the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother want to take us all hostages, especially me and you."
In fact, Jin Zhu's move was quite risky, she was betting on King Kang to win.If King Kang wins, his mother will be safe.On the contrary, if King Kang loses, his mother will also lose.But in this case, she has no choice, if she doesn't bring her mother out, no matter who wins or loses, the queen mother and queen will definitely be angry with them, I'm afraid that the first one to kill is them."
You mean, your father is going to..."
The latter words opened the general's mouth wide but did not continue."
I don't know how my father chose it, but King Kang definitely is...Jin Zhu didn't finish the rest of the sentence, because she heard footsteps running towards them.To be continued.2907201:
