Chapter 180
The Empress Dowager's birthday feast is not held in the Imperial Palace, but in the Jiaolan Palace on the outskirts of the city.
JiaoLan palace was built on the hillside of Wuxing mountain, the most famous mountain outside the capital.
It is said that Wuxing mountain is the place where the dragon vein of Chu is located. The palace is built here, which can absorb the Dragon Qi and make the rivers and mountains of Chu continue. It is said that the imperial mausoleum of Chu is on Wuxing mountain.
Last year, there were a lot of things that clouded the capital. The emperor set the birthday feast here, and he also wanted to make it more auspicious.
The birthday party is held at the most sunny time of noon. In order not to delay the party, all the people who attend the party get up before dawn and rush to the Guerlain palace.
The palace of the king of Jin, in the bamboo fragrance yard.
Su Muge, who was awakened by Yueru from the bed, yawned. She looked up at the dark sky outside, only to feel the pain in her temples. She didn't sleep early last night. She's not in a good mood today.
"What time is it?"
Yueru stands behind her and combs her head. "Princess, it's the end of the day."
At the end of Yinshi, it's about five o'clock!
It's a struggle to get up so early!
JiaoLan palace is outside the capital city. It takes more than one hour to get out of the city by coach. In order not to delay the time, many people are ready at the beginning of their life, but they have to go out of the city according to the order of rank. The officials at the back can't come earlier than the nobles at the front, or they will hit others in the face.
Su Muge half closed his eyes, and waited for Yueru to put the last white jade hairpin in his hair before opening his eyes.
"And the prince?" When she got up, there was no shadow of Xia houmo.
"Wang Ye entered the palace at the beginning of Yin's reign."
Although xiahoumo is not in charge of the guard now, the emperor still asks xiahoumo to follow him to the JiaoLan palace, that is, he can't go with Su Muge.
Su Muge nodded. "Well."
Xinlan comes into the room with a food box. "Princess, let's have some breakfast first."
"Good."
I don't know when I will have a bite to eat until I get to JiaoLan palace.
Xinlan fills Su Muge with a bowl of bird's nest porridge. After su Muge drinks, he eats two steamed buns and some small dishes before putting chopsticks on.
Seeing that it was about to dawn, she left the palace with her skirt and got on the carriage.
When the Empress Dowager was born, the emperor, in order to show his filial piety, wanted to celebrate the whole world. When the emperor went to the Jiaolan Palace at the beginning of Yinshi, he asked the palace people to sprinkle copper money all the way, which caused many people to scramble in the street. As a result, the street was full of pedestrians before the dawn.
People also want to see if there is any money to pick up next, but they are afraid that they will be disappointed.
Copper money is sprinkled by the emperor. Who can be like the emperor here? If he sprinkles money, you sprinkle it. Do you want to be equal to the emperor or not.
Su Muge's carriage was covered with a thick wool blanket. After getting on, she took off her shoes and stepped on the soft blanket, which made her sleepy even more.
When she was about to leave the gate, Su Muge opened the curtain of the car, and the gate was full of guards. Among them, she saw a familiar figure, Xia houkun.
Unfortunately, I saw the last person I wanted to see early in the morning.
When Su Muge put down the curtain, Xia houkun saw Su Muge's carriage.
In such a trip, the carriage is naturally marked by the royal residence of Jin.
When Xia houkun saw it, he decided to move forward immediately if he didn't want to.
"Nine younger brothers and sisters are so early."
Hearing the voice of Xia houkun, Su Muge yawned lazily.
"Isn't the second brother earlier?"
Xia houkun's eyes narrowed when he saw that she didn't even lift the curtain. "Yes, today is the birthday of the emperor's grandmother. In order to make sure everything is safe, brother Huang, I have to stay up all night. I can't get a good sleep without brother Jiu."
Naive.
Xia houkun's ostentation and satire are really irrelevant to Su Muge.
"That's really hard, second brother. It's late. Goodbye, let's go."
"Yes."
Seeing Su Muge's carriage slowly passing by, Xia houkun snorted coldly.
After leaving the city gate, he had to walk for more than half an hour to get to Wuxing mountain. Su Muge simply did not support himself. He just fell down on the carriage and closed his eyes.
The carriage is swaying. It's good to sleep
"Bang!"
Su Muge, who is going to sleep, suddenly shakes heavily and almost bumps into the small table in the car. Fortunately, she is sensitive and blocked with her hand.
She woke up, sat up and said, "what's the matter?"
Wang Yi's face was a little ugly. He lifted the curtain and came in. "Go back to the princess. It's the carriage that fell into a pit accidentally. The axle of the wheel is broken!"
Su Muge frowned slightly. "Can you still go?"
Wang Yi shook his head.
"May be fixed in a short time?"Wang Yi shakes his head again. "How far is it from Wuxing mountain now? How long does it take to walk? "
"If you walk, you may have to walk for an hour."
Su Muge looked at the clothes and shoes on her body. After walking for an hour, she went to a banquet. She couldn't ride the horse because she was wearing it today!
It's a real hassle.
"I'll see."
Su Muge put on his shoes and jumped out of the carriage.
At a glance, I saw that the wheel of the carriage was stuck in a pit. The axle supporting the wheel was broken, and the wheel could not continue to walk normally at all.
This carriage is a "luxury car" according to the specifications of the royal residence of Jin Dynasty. Such a carriage needs at least four strong and strong horses to be pulled and run. It can be seen how many times it is.
When Su Muge was trying to find a way, a team of people slowly came here behind him.
I really can't. I have to take a car with someone else.
But when the team approached, Su Muge completely dismissed the idea.
But the team stopped in front of her, and then there was a poor voice.
"This is Princess Jin. What's the matter? The carriage is broken? " Su Jingwen looks at Su Muge with a gloating face, and the smile on her face can't be suppressed.
Su Muge straightened her back and looked at her coldly.
"Princess Su, why don't you come down to see me? I don't know if my concubine is here. You can be so rude. "
"You!" Su Jingwen's face immediately fell. She thought that as long as she could marry Xia houkun, even the side concubine would be good!
But she could not imagine that Su Muge had become the princess of Jin! I'm a little lower than her!
"Elder sister, I am not fit enough to get off the carriage. Please forgive me!" Su Jingwen clenched her teeth.
Su Muge hooks the lip hook. "Since you are not well, don't show off."
"You, Su Muge, your carriage is broken. I'll see what you can do! If it's late then, I'll see if King Jin will give you a look! " Finish saying, Su Jingwen put down the curtain. "Go."
Su Jingwen's team quickly passed her eyes.
"On such a face indignant way:" Su side imperial concubine is really excessive! "
Too much?
Su Muge doesn't think it's her. She will never let Su Jingwen get on the carriage. Of course, she won't want to get on the carriage.
"Princess, what can I do?"
If you don't leave, it's too late.
Su Muge, as a daughter-in-law, will arrive earlier.
"I really can't, just ride." Anyway, if you can't make up, you can go to JiaoLan palace and comb again.
"But Princess Jin?"
When Su Muge was ready to ride, there was a lazy voice behind him.
Su Muge looked back and saw a dark blue carriage parked behind him.
"You are?"
"I've heard a lot about Princess Jin in xiaquanming."
Quan Ming, Prince of Xiliang.
Quan Ming only slightly raised the curtain to reveal a corner of the carriage. Su Muge only saw a pair of amber eyes with light. That's all.
"It turned out to be prince Xiliang."
"It seems that there is something wrong with Princess Jin's carriage. It's just that the carriage is big enough. I don't know if the princess would like to share a carriage with me?"
The princess of one country is sitting in a carriage with the prince of another country. It's hard to hear.
"Thank you for your kindness."
"Don't worry, princess. There is curtain in the carriage to divide the carriage into two parts. If the Princess continues to wait, the time will be delayed."
It's true that waiting time will be delayed, and horse riding is the last resort.
After pondering for a while, Su Muge got on the carriage of Quan Ming.
The carriage is indeed separated by a curtain, as Quan Ming said. Even so, Su Muge's half is very spacious. At least she doesn't feel crowded when she sits with Wang Yi and Yueru.
"Thank you for your help."
"It's just a matter of hands." After that, Quan Ming asked the coachman outside to continue walking, and accelerated his speed to ensure that Su Muge could get to Wuxing mountain as soon as possible.
In other people's carriages, Su Muge can't sleep any more naturally. Fortunately, it's spacious enough, so she leaned on the back of Wang Yi and squinted.
I don't know whether Quan Ming has deliberately restrained her breath, or whether she is too comfortable with the situation. Anyway, she didn't feel any discomfort when she stayed in the carriage.
"Here you are, your highness."
I don't know how long it took for the carriage to stop slowly. There was a sound of closing the pages on the other side of the curtain.
"Princess Wang first."
"Thank you." Wang Yi and Yue Ru get off the bus first and help Su Muge down.
After getting off, Su Muge found that the carriage didn't stop at the front door of the JiaoLan palace, but it was a relatively slanted place beside the front door, which could just avoid other people's sight. The prince Xiliang was very delicate."Thank you very much, Prince. My concubine will send you a thank-you gift when she returns to the city."
Quan Ming smiles. "Thank you. I've heard that the king of Jin in the state of Chu is very brave. I've wanted to see him for a long time. When I come to your house, I'd like to ask Princess Jin not to be unwelcome."
"Of course not."
After two polite sentences, Su Muge and Yueru leave.
With the footsteps of several people moving away, Quan Ming reaches out to lift the curtain and looks at the back of the three people leaving.
"Your Highness, do you want to go?"
"Don't worry. What does a foreigner in this hall do so actively? Wait a moment."
"Yes."
JiaoLan palace was built on the hillside of Wuxing mountain, the most famous mountain outside the capital.
