Chapter 3 Paddock


When she heard Jiang Liu anxiously asking her to go to the courtyard to receive the order, Mei Li was instinctively frightened.

Could it be that the emperor regretted it and wanted to take her back?

The eunuch outside the door urged loudly and impatiently: "Meili Gege, hurry up and accept the decree."

Meili's clenched hand slowly loosened and she left the room to receive the order.

Fortunately, it was Yizhi.

She lowered her eyes and knelt on the ground respectfully.

Even if it was an imperial edict to take her back, could she escape it?

No matter good or bad, she had no right to choose, and she could not even avoid it.

All she could do was kneel down and obey.

The order is very simple.

Tomorrow, all the relatives who receive the order will accompany the Empress Dowager and the Empress to watch the hunting in the west paddock of the city.

Meili raised her hand high and took back the will, and said that letting her rest for a few days was the holy will.

She wanted you to live and die, and she didn't care about your feelings at all.

After the eunuch left, Uncle Hai was very happy, saying that his ancestors still missed his family's kindness and kindness, and he was trying to find a good tailor to make hunting clothes for her.

Spring hunting is around the corner, and this hunt outside the city has the potential to select the best.

Over the years, this kind of hunting activity has been like a disguised blind date meeting, where people who are not easy to meet gather together.

Those Princesses of Fujin naturally kept their eyes peeled to see whose young master was handsome and mighty, so as to be a good match for their daughter.

The ladies were even more excited.

Just seeing so many handsome men competing in horse riding was worth staying up for several nights.

She had also been crazy excited and looked forward to it.

In order to attract his attention in the paddock, he sent Uncle Hai and even went to his uncle's house himself to ask for money to tailor hunting clothes.

Deliberately causing some trouble in the paddock, hoping that he would come over and deal with it.

Even if he scolded her a few words, at least he could see the elaborate dressing she had made for him.

Only she knew how much pain she had endured by dressing up so luxuriously.

Complaints and look-downs were all she got.

She has no mother, no caring nanny.

She relies on all her efforts, even getting her ears pierced.

The girl's feelings had long been exhausted in the cold Hall of Peace.

Now, even if she thinks about her innocent obsession with Jingxuan back then, it is mixed with a lot of worldly things.

Does she really love Jingxuan?

She loves his unparalleled handsome appearance, and he loves his prominent and noble status.

As long as she marries him, she will no longer have to be embarrassed in her life.

Does she love him as a person?

In addition to his charming appearance, cold and domineering awe-inspiring nobility, does she love his heart?

Has she ever touched his heart?

Has he ever let her get close to his heart?

Everything is just the girl's shallow yearning and greed.

At that time, she knew what love was Two years ago, she thought she was smart enough and worldly enough.

It was ridiculous that she thought that by marrying Jingxuan, she would be safe and stable and would no longer be looked down upon by others.

She just never thought why Jingxuan would marry her.

At the beginning, she was heartbroken and desperate for his lack of love.

Even if he didn't want to marry her, he shouldn't have coldly demanded to punish her severely.

Even the Empress Dowager and the Queen Mother stood up to defend her, but he still refused to give up, causing her to be in the same situation.

He was trapped in the cold palace of the prison for three years.

Later, she no longer blamed him.

If he didn't do this, the ancestor would force her to be his wife.

He had to protect himself first.

Every time she asked herself, who was she to him?

stumbling block If what happened to Chengyi's brother had not happened, Jingxuan was going to be the prince-in-law of Junggar.

He was going to marry the powerful and wealthy Mongolian princess.

She, Shumulu Meili, was nothing more than a short-term loser whose parents both died.

Gege, even the dowry fight was not much, but the ancestors felt sorry for her and hoped that she would marry well, so she was granted the title of Heshuo Gege.

The emperor's cousin didn't like her.

A man likes a woman so much that he doesn't want her anymore, but it's just Chengyi.

The Qing Dynasty is about to go to war with Junggar.

Sister Ziqing dies.

The prince who originally had a bright future becomes a criminal in the court and protects Emperor Taizong.

The mausoleum guards the tomb.

Like her in captivity All the obstacles have long since been shattered.

Do the girls who can't sleep tonight because they can see the man they love know that their fate is not in the hands of Yue Lao, nor in the hands of the emperor's ancestors, but in the hands of power and situation?

Emperor Ma wants to rely on Zhong, and behold, the most shining man in the paddock belongs to her.

Men are even more All the men in the paddock were born into wealth and distinguished family backgrounds.

What kind of women they want in the alleys?

There are not so many stunning women in Jiangnan and beyond the Great Wall.

When they look at a woman in the paddock, they only look at her surname and her background. , they didn’t pick a wife, but a backer and a helper.

Her ancestors have always loved her very much.

After experiencing so much, she realized it more deeply.

Compared to the sadness of Vanity Fair, who knows better than the ancestors?

Even though her appearance tomorrow will only add to the jokes, the ancestors still want her to go, which still makes people feel that at least there is an empress dowager behind her.

She didn't want to go, and she was afraid of facing so many pairs of snobbish and mocking eyes.

She also wanted to huddle up in her little nest as humbly as a mouse, despite the storm outside.

But she couldn't brush off her ancestor's kindness, and she couldn't be shameless.

She has experienced too deeply the horror of imperial power and the untouchable power of God.

After sitting silently in a chair and meditating for a long time with the imperial edict, Meili was awakened by Uncle Hai's warm greeting.

He was leading an old nanny in from the outside.

Judging from the smile on his face, only distinguished guests could enjoy such preferential treatment.

She looked at the nanny from the open window with a smile.

She was a little fat, but she looked very kind.

As soon as she stood up, someone had already come in.

Uncle Hai introduced that this was Aunt Wu, who was sent by Ruoyu to deliver clothes.

He gratefully opened the package that Aunt Wu had brought, which contained a simple and elegant sapphire blue hunting suit.

After finishing her salute, Aunt Wu said with a warm smile: "We in Fujin know that you are going to the paddock tomorrow, so we sent an old slave to help you dress up."

Meili understood why Uncle Hai treated Aunt Wu so kindly, because he was grateful.

Not only was Uncle Hai grateful, she was also grateful.

Although Jiang Liu was young, he was very clever and clever.

Seeing that Aunt Wu was an expert at combing her hair, she quickly knelt down and asked for advice.

Meili also willingly sat in front of the mirror and acted as a handle, letting the old and the young pull her hair back and forth.

From the mirror, she couldn't see what kind of bun they had put on the back of her head and bottom of her head.

It was a bit boring, but she enjoyed it very much.

It was very warm.

Compared with the indifference of no one, she was very happy now.

She still couldn't sleep at night, not because she was excited, but the panic caused by the fierce fire in the middle of the night had not subsided.

The despair that she had been plunged into a sea of ​​​​fire as soon as she opened her eyes, and no one came to save her even if she screamed, would dissipate after a while.

Don't go.

She always dared not fall asleep peacefully.

Fortunately, Jiang Liu and Nanny Wu woke up early.

They seemed to be more excited than she was, dragging her up to dress up before dawn.

Aunt Wu rummaged around in the jewelry box, unable to make up her mind.

"Gege, it's up to you to choose."

Meili took over the jewelry box that she had not seen for two years.

It contained the jewelry that she had worked so hard to collect, but now it seemed vulgar.

When she was young, she thought that as long as jewelry was big enough and heavy enough, it could show her status and wealth.

She picked up a thick ruby ​​headbutton, which reminded her of the down-and-out landlord who went out to rub lard on his mouth and pretended to eat meat every day. .

She smiled and dug around in the box.

No wonder Aunt Wu couldn't choose.

The set of jewelry given by my ancestors is very good, but it is made of jade and does not match the sapphire blue clothes.

"Jiang Liu, go pick a light-colored flower in the yard and wear it for me."

She ordered.

"Gege, all the respectable princesses will go today.

You will make people laugh if you wear flowers."

Jiang Liu frowned to stop her.

Meili smiled, wouldn't people laugh if she wore such tacky jewelry?

Even if she wore the most beautiful jewelry in the world and people wouldn't laugh, wouldn't she be Meili?

After all, Aunt Wu was older and more knowledgeable.

She gave Jiang Liu a wink and urged: "Go, go, pick a light red flower.

The lighter, the better."

Meili smiled and nodded.

Uncle Hai was brushing his horse thoughtfully in the front yard.

Meili stopped on the stone steps at the door and did not come near.

"Uncle Hai, I'd better go by car."

Uncle Hai nodded repeatedly and immediately called for people to prepare the car.

Although it was strange to ride in a car to participate in a hunt, Gege was killed by a horse in the first place.

Not to mention that she was unwilling to ride again, he was also worried about making another mistake.

Before setting off, another eunuch came to inform her that she did not need to enter the palace and went directly to the paddock.

Meili's car was moving slowly.

By the time they reached the paddock, Gegefujin from other families had already arrived.

Looking from a distance, in the paddock with lush vegetation, colorful flags were fluttering.

Below were handsome men and beauties with dazzling eyes, and sturdy horses of different colors.

The servants beat the big drums to scare the animals, and the laughter and laughter created a heart-stirring hunting scene.

Meili watched from a distance for a while, and then, under the leadership of the little eunuch, walked towards the direction of the imperial umbrella.

She was just an outsider in this prosperity.

She is now and she was before, but at that time she refused to admit it
