Chapter 85 Palace Maid
Rong Jinchen pursed his lips, a look of emotion flashed across his dark eyes, his long eyelashes fluttered slightly, and he looked up at Rong Yue, whose eyes were red. Everything between the father and son was self-evident.
After returning to the rear hall and changing into the black Xuanduan court robe, the man wore a black robe with black shoes and looked handsome and extremely handsome.
Su Zhenzhen couldn't help but be slightly infatuated for a moment.
Yu Fuhai sang again: "In this auspicious month and day, I will offer you my blessings... May you live a long life and receive eternal blessings..."
The tall and handsome young man immediately knelt on the cushion in front of Rong Yue. Rong Yue took off the first black cloth crown and put on the second leather crown for him. This was the crown worn by princes and officials, also known as the military crown, which allowed one to enter the military camp and take charge of military power.
The leather crown is adorned with large gemstones of the finest color, giving it a feeling of the star-like crown in the Book of Songs.
Rong Jinyou looked at his father crowning Achen in a daze, as if he saw him and his father five years ago.
Rong Yue was in a good mood, and he even joked: "My son Fenglangjuxu is the bravest of the three armies, and he is truly worthy of the title of the God of War of the Qin Dynasty." Rong Jinchen returned to the back hall and changed into a leather hat, a plain coat, a plain skirt, and white shoes.
Yu Fuhai's voice trembled as he prayed, "In the right year, in the order of the month... receive the blessing of heaven."
Rong Yue took off the leather crown and solemnly put the third nine-feathered crown on Rong Jinchen, which granted him the right to offer sacrifices in the ancestral temple.
A moment later, he returned from the back hall after changing his clothes, wearing court robes, a leather belt, and Chaoyun's imperial shoes.
Yu Fuhai sang again: "The sweet wine is rich, the recommendation makes you fragrant... I will never forget your longevity..."
Rong Yue looked at his son who had grown up and was taller and more handsome than him, and touched his beautiful beard with satisfaction, "Chen'er, your father hopes that you will have a safe and smooth life. How about the name Zi'an?" He would not say that he could not think of a good name for Chen. Zi'an was indeed Rong Yue's most sincere expectation for Rong Jinchen.
Rong Jinchen's eyes moved slightly, and he knelt on the mat again, and gave Rong Yue a deep salute, "Zi'an kowtows to thank the emperor, father." Rong Jinchen had to admit that his father really had a kind fatherly heart poured into him. It was a gift that he did not get spoiled by his father and turned into a playboy.
Su Zhenzhen was a little surprised. Just like everyone else in the hall, the character "Chen" in Rong Jinchen's name was very noble. Chen also means the North Pole.
She thought His Majesty would give him a name with similar meaning, but it turned out to be the most common expectation of an old father for his son?
Zi'an, his son lived a peaceful life...
Finished.
She was jealous.
I couldn't bear to look at the expressions of the other princes.
Su Zhenzhen plucked up her courage and secretly glanced at Prince Rong Jinyou, who had an unclear expression.
Unexpectedly, Crown Prince Rong Jinyou seemed to sense something and gave her a warm and polite smile.
Su Zhenzhen blinked and quickly shifted her gaze to look at Rong Jinchen and Rong Yue, father and son.
Su Zhenzhen did not attend the subsequent banquet. She was dragged by Rong Jinchen to Kunning Palace where the late queen lived.
Because Rong Jinchen said this to Rong Yue, "Your Majesty, I want to take Qingqing to burn incense to my mother. Today is my coming-of-age day, and I want to take my mother, the future daughter-in-law, to see her. Your Majesty, is that okay?" He looked at Rong Yue without blinking.
Rong Yue seemed to be lost in memories. His face, still handsome but with traces of time, was stunned for a moment. Then he said: "Go, let your mother take a good look at the wife that Chen'er has chosen for herself." He waved his hand, signaling him to leave with his people.
Su Zhenzhen:???
On the way, she looked at Rong Jinchen, "Chenchen, shouldn't I burn incense to my mother after I get married?" Su Zhenzhen felt that since she called His Majesty "Father", her mother certainly couldn't be left out.
Rong Jinchen held her soft, boneless little hand. Her snow-white skin made him afraid to use force, because he had accidentally used a little too much force before, and Qingqing's wrist immediately turned red.
The man pondered for a moment and whispered: "Qingqing, I can't wait any longer. I want my mother to see her future daughter-in-law as soon as possible." His mother was unable to see him grow up.
Rong Jinchen lost his mother at the age of thirteen. The late Queen Ye Shiyi had a serious illness in her early years and her body was weak and she was unable to recover. Later, she suffered from a chronic headache and died after being bedridden for only one or two months.
At that time, Rong Yue was furious at the loss of his beloved, and the entire harem and the former court were trembling with fear. As a result, many dirty things of open and secret struggles were uncovered, and many concubines and officials were demoted due to the anger of Rong Yue who was in a mad state.
Su Zhenzhen knew clearly that she shouldn't do that, but she had a bit of PTSD. Could it be that a palace maid who was raised as a daughter by the Empress would suddenly appear?
Don’t ask why Su Zhenzhen’s train of thought is so unique. The answer is that she has read too many novels, and they are all clichés.
But considering that Rong Jinchen already has a childhood sweetheart (crossed out) cousin, he handled it pretty well.
Su Zhenzhen stopped worrying about it instantly. She just watched.
Rong Jinchen took her to Kunning Palace. Looking at the magnificent, luxurious and elegant Kunning Palace in front of them, it was as clean as new, and it was obvious that someone cleaned it every day.
Rong Yue did give an order that the original palace maids and eunuchs in Kunning Palace must always keep Kunning Palace clean and tidy and not let it fall into disrepair.
When Su Zhenzhen heard Rong Jinchen say that this was an order from his father, she felt mixed emotions. Should she say that His Majesty was affectionate or not?
Seeing how much he dotes on his two legitimate sons with the late queen, it is said that he loves his wife and all his children as well as his family, but he also slept with other concubines many times.
Su Zhenzhen could only say that this might be the deep affection of ancient men, which moved other men of the same kind.
Her soul is not a native of the Qin Dynasty, so she cannot empathize.
At this time, a bookish and beautiful palace maid walked out of Kunning Palace. She looked at Rong Jinchen with surprise: "Your Highness Prince Yan, are you here to see the Queen?" She saluted with some excitement, but couldn't help but look up at Rong Jinchen secretly.
Thinking of something, his face turned pale and he looked at Su Zhenzhen with a bit of panic. He opened his mouth, but finally just lowered his head and said nothing.
Su Zhenzhen looked at the palace maid's affectionate eyes, her heart remained calm, and she even felt like laughing.
really.
She just knew it.
The only people you can come into contact with in this palace are His Majesty, the prince and the grandson of the emperor. If you are not tempted, you must be wrong.
The palace maid in front of him looked to be no more than twenty years old. It was really the case that the goddess had the intention but the king did not.
Su Zhenzhen was bored and started playing with the hand that was not held by Rong Jinchen, waiting for them to reminisce about the past.
Rong Jinchen felt a little puzzled. Who was this person? He frowned slightly and said, "Go away." This is unruly.
The palace maid's face turned pale, tears welled up in her eyes, and she looked very pitiful.
Why did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince chat with her and ask about some things that happened when the Queen was alive?
His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan doesn’t even know her name?
It was obvious that the Queen Mother liked her very much before and almost made her a second-class maid.
Rong Jinchen had no intention of showing sympathy to women. He tilted his head to look at Su Zhenzhen who was playing with her fingers, and said, "Qingqing, why don't you leave? Are you tired?" He couldn't help but feel annoyed. It would take at least a quarter of an hour to walk from the Taiji Hall and take a shortcut.
Or maybe he wasn't careful enough. He should have had someone carry the sedan chair. Qingqing was delicate and fragile, unlike a rough and tough guy like him.
Qingqing understood that he was immersed in mourning for his mother, so how could he be so careless?
