Chapter 165 Wrong (one more)
The carriage swayed slightly as the carriage moved.
"It's really interesting!" Gu Yanfei sighed faintly, the smile on his face deepened, his eyes seemed to be playful, emotional, and insightful, "It's a waste of you not to go out today."
After she finished speaking, she leaned back on the carriage lazily, ignoring Gu Yuncong.
The inside of the carriage was quiet again, only the sound of the wheels outside and the noise of the street echoed in my ears.
Neither of them spoke anymore.
Gu Yunchang's slender fingers clenched the handkerchief in his hand, and quietly looked at Gu Yanfei who was lying on the carriage with his eyes closed.
Gu Yanfei's blue silk only **** the simplest Zhu'er. He was wearing a snow-blue dark-patterned Beizi on his body, and a five-piece moon skirt with elegant colors. There was only a plum blossom hosta and a camellia in the bun. Silk flowers, ear wearing a pair of plum blossoms.
In addition, there is no other jewelry on the whole body, and the moon is white and the wind is clear and elegant.
It was obvious that she grew up in the countryside of Huaibei, but in Gu Yunxiang's opinion, she didn't look alike at all.
She has a Tsinghua bearing, is free and easy, and does not feel vulgar at all.
She has a straightforward temperament, neither humble nor arrogant, her speech and demeanor are unrestrained, and she has her own style.
Gu Yanfei doesn't look like an ordinary country girl at all.
She is hiding too deep!
Gu Yunchang stared at Gu Yanfei, his fingers slowly rolled the handkerchief between his fingers, circle after circle, his thoughts also turned, and the light in his eyes flowed.
Ever since her life was revealed, Gu Yunchang always felt that she owed Gu Yanfei.
Even though Mrs. Tai told her time and time again that it wasn't her fault, she still felt ashamed when she thought of the past ten years of her life in the Hou Mansion, while Gu Yanfei suffered in Huaibei. , and therefore she tried her best to make up for Gu Yanfei.
But now, Gu Yunchang realized that she was wrong.
Gu Yanfei has not had a bad life in the past fourteen years, so she was able to develop her current unruly appearance.
She pretended to be indebted to her.
Her scheming should not be underestimated.
Gu Yunchang stared slightly, a thoughtful light flashed in his eyes, and quickly disappeared, returning to calm.
Gu Yanfei's slender eyelashes moved, and he suddenly opened his eyes to meet Gu Yunchang's scrutinizing gaze, his eyes were half-open and half-closed, and he smiled.
This smile is lazy and uninhibited, casual and agreeable, and elegant.
Gu Yunxiang also pursed his lips and smiled, the pair of small dimples on his cheeks deepened a bit, and his heart was as clear as water.
She knew it was her fault.
She shouldn't be preconceived, and she shouldn't be undefended. It's essential to be defensive.
In the quiet carriage, it was calm and peaceful, and there seemed to be some undercurrent surging.
The horse-drawn carriage of Hou's mansion drove smoothly all the way, turned several corners in the streets of the capital, and drove for nearly a stick of incense, before there was a respectful announcement from the maid outside, saying that the palace had arrived.
With this shout, the speed of the carriage gradually slowed down, and finally stopped beside the horse stele in front of the palace gate.
Wang Shi, Gu Yanfei and Gu Yunchang got off the carriage one after another.
The sky outside was a bit gloomy again, and overcast clouds hung in layers above the palace gate.
The three palace gates in front are wide open, the high city platform is like a mountain protruding, heavy eaves flying up, yellow tiles and red walls, majestic.
The female family entered the palace through the Xihua Gate. In front of the palace gate was solemn and solemn, and on both sides stood a row of soldiers of the Imperial Army dressed in bronze helmets and iron armor.
A teenage Tsing-clothed servant with two palace maids had been waiting outside Xihua Gate, greeted them with a smile, and greeted the Wang family.
"Mrs. Hou, Miss Gu San, our family is waiting for a few here at the order of the Empress Dowager. Please come here." The little housekeeper passed Gu Yanfei directly, politely stretched out his hand to make a request, and walked in front to show them the way.
With the lintel of the Dingyuan Marquis' Mansion, of course they couldn't take the sedan chair, they had to walk all the way from the palace gate to Shou'an Palace, and they couldn't go through the main entrance in the middle, they had to enter the palace from the side entrance.
After walking a few steps, sporadic snowflakes floated in the sky, sparsely.
The little maid was quick-witted, and immediately took a tung oil umbrella from the palace maid's hand, and said to Gu Yunchang with a smile, "Miss Gu, it's snowing, be careful to catch a cold."
He was very attentive and personally held an umbrella for Gu Yunchang.
"Miss Gu San, there is a hand stove here." Another palace maid gave Gu Yuncong a small hand stove with a smile on her face.
The Wang family is Mrs. Hou. Even though the Dingyuan Hou residence is not as good as it was in the past, there are still three or five opportunities to enter the palace a year. On weekdays, these palace people are arrogant and ignorant, which is a world of difference from today.
"It's time to work." Mrs Wang said to several palace servants with a smile on her face, turned her head and warned Gu Yunxuan meaningfully, "Sister Concubine, you must remember the grace of the Empress Dowager."
The Wang family didn't mention King Kang at all, but everyone knew that the people in Shou'an Palace would treat Gu Yunchang differently because of King Kang.
No one in the palace knew that Gu Yuncong was at the top of King Kang's heart and would definitely be the future Concubine Kang, so these palace servants who usually stepped on highs and lows naturally didn't mind lowering their bodies and showing affection to Gu Yuncong.
"My daughter understands." Gu Yunmao nodded with a smile, and there were bright waves in his eyes, quite a bit of the little daughter's desire to speak.
She tucked the small flower-basket-shaped hand stove in her sleeve, and glanced at Gu Yanfei calmly from the corner of her eyes, wanting to see if there was envy in Gu Yanfei's eyes, if there was any embarrassment.
However, what she met was a pair of almond eyes that were as clear as water.
Gu Yanfei is still the casual and comfortable Gu Yanfei, scanning the people and things around him with a calm expression.
Her eyes were very casual, relaxed, and she stood calmly, neither deliberately calm, nor looking to her side, nor envious.
As if the Qionglou Yuyu in front of her was as common to her as she saw a leaf on the road.
Don't have a kind of indifference that sees the world as nothing.
Passing through the side door of Xihuamen, I saw a few palace servants in front of the palace road carrying a sedan chair and walking towards this side, and the wind was blowing as they stepped down.
The little maid who held the umbrella for Gu Yunmao's eyes lit up, his eyes narrowed with laughter, and he raised his voice excitedly and said, "Miss Gu San, it must be the sedan chair arranged by the lord for the girl, the lord really knows how to feel distressed. "
The Queen Mother Yuan did not arrange a sedan chair for Gu Yuncong, so this sedan chair was obviously arranged by King Kang.
The little maid and the two palace maids exchanged glances, looking at Gu Yunchang's expression becoming more respectful and earnest.
Gu Yunchang thought so too, her cheeks were flushed, and the corners of her rosy lips were slightly raised, her heart seemed to be filled with honey, sweet.
"Your Highness is thoughtful and considerate." Mrs. Wang rejoiced and said again, with a somewhat proud and proud look.
The crowd surrounded Gu Yuncong like the stars and the moon, leaving Gu Yanfei to the side.
However, when the sedan chair was carried to Gu Yuncong's, it did not stop, but passed over her like a gust of wind.
Mrs Wang frowned slightly and was about to speak when she saw the sedan chair being carried to Gu Yanfei.
A middle-aged servant with a white face and no beard smiled and bowed to Gu Yanfei, and said respectfully in a thin voice: "Second Lady Gu, please get on the sedan chair, it's snowing today and it's hard to walk."
After putting down the sedan chair, several palace servants who carried the sedan chair also gave Gu Yan a flying salute.
"..." Gu Yanfei blinked inexplicably.
The others present were all dumbfounded and dumbfounded at this scene.
A strong biting cold wind blew through, and the tung oil umbrella was smashed by the wind and snow, and it almost didn't fly away from the little maid's hand.
The little waiter hurriedly grabbed the handle of the umbrella and looked at the middle-aged waiter with a strange look.
The Wang family almost thought that these palace servants were referring to the second girl Gu as the third girl, and they hesitated.
Even Gu Yunchang's face changed slightly at this moment, his cheeks flushed, embarrassment, shock, and embarrassment flashed alternately, but he immediately returned to normal.
In just a few words, the snow was getting heavier and heavier, and flakes of snowflakes hit the roof of the sedan chair, making a rustling sound.
Although Gu Yanfei didn't feel tired from walking, she didn't like her shoes getting wet with snow.
"Many thanks, Father-in-law." Gu Yanfei thanked him generously, without asking any further questions or pushing him, and sat on the sedan chair under the complicated gaze of the crowd.
This is a sedan chair for a single person, obviously, no one else has the share.
Wang has also recovered from the initial shock, his face has calmed down a lot, and he politely asked the little maid with the umbrella to lead the way, so that the empress dowager would not wait for a long time.
She was in shock and wondered, and she couldn't help but speculate: Who the **** arranged the sedan chair for Gu Yanfei, this is the imperial palace.
The group walked in the direction of Shou'an Palace.
Wang and Gu Yunqiang walked in front, and the sedan chair Gu Yanfei was riding was a foot behind, not too far behind them.
Wang shi almost exhausted all her strength, but did not look back, maintaining her grace as Mrs. Hou, facing the wind and snow through the palace gates and palace roads, and finally arrived at Shou'an Palace.
Gu Yanfei's sedan chair also stopped at the gate of Shou'an Palace with them.
The palace people at the gate of Shou'an Palace all cast their gazes on the sedan chairs, all of them couldn't hide their shocked expressions, and the same question appeared in their hearts: Who is this girl?
As soon as Wang's group arrived, the maids in charge of Shou'an Palace brought people to welcome them in person.
The maids in charge of the palace have been in the palace for many years, so he naturally recognizes the noble ladies of the noble family, and Gu Yuncong, and smiled slightly with the two of them: "Mrs. Hou, Miss Gu San, please come in."
"And this girl, please."
The maid in charge of the palace looked past the Wang family and turned to the girl at the end who had just gotten off the sedan chair. The smile on her face was just right, and she was thinking about her identity:
Since this girl was brought by Mrs. Dingyuan Hou, she is probably a girl from the Gu family, but how could she come here in a sedan chair?
