Chapter Thirteen The Emperor Summons

Regarding Su Cixuan's almost falling from the horse during the horse racing, on the surface, it passed peacefully. Several palace maids who were present that day, when they got together in private, mentioned the dangers at that time from time to time, and felt sorry for Su Cixuan in their hearts.

The usually transparent princess couldn't help but feel admiration and respect.

It was a different scene outside the palace. The common people had an infinite yearning for the palace, and they had a natural tendency to pry into the daily life of the nobles in the palace. Whenever they heard about something in the palace, they would spread it to hundreds of people.

, within two days, the news spread all over the market.

The wind in the palace was calm, but outside the palace, there were waves and commotion, especially in the teahouse storytelling, which was in full swing. In the past few days, Princess Su Cixuan had become the embodiment of wit, bravery, and fearlessness in the face of danger in the hearts of the people.

However, Princess Yao has become an image of a sinister and sinister villain who does tricks behind her back. Many people feel deeply ashamed that Le Yao, a legitimate princess, resorted to despicable means in order to win.

As if striking while the iron is hot, one wave of injustice arises after another. I don’t know where they come from, but they hear the news that Princess Leyao brutally murdered many palace maids. These news are like a huge stone turning up thousands of waves. No matter where they go, they are all heard.

Similar comments.

Surprisingly, the uproar outside the palace has not spread to the palace, or has not spread quietly in the palace, and everything is as peaceful as before. When Su Cixuan went to Weiyang Palace to pay her respects to the Queen, her expression was the same.

Usually, it seems as if Le Yao's plot against her didn't happen.

The queen looked at her sternly for a long time, and saw that she was quite sensible, and did not make a fuss or fuss even when she suffered a loss, like a boring gourd with a sawed mouth. The queen then pulled the corner of her mouth contemptuously and asked her to stand down.

"I heard that the princess and Le Yao were racing and the princess almost fell off the horse. Were you frightened?"

"Thank you, Queen, for your concern. My daughter was indeed frightened at the time, but she is fine now."

"That's good, why are you so careless?" After the queen said, she stared at Su Cixuan's eyes, not missing the change in her gaze. As long as Su Cixuan dared to say that Le Yao had done something secretly, the queen would

She must be punished immediately for slandering the princess.

However, Su Cixuan's calm eyes remained the same, and she said calmly and humbly: "It's my daughter's poor riding skills that makes the empress worried."

When the queen heard this, she looked at her tentatively for a while, then smiled and said, "It's okay, just pay more attention in the future."

After saying that, the queen asked Qingyi beside her to go to the warehouse to take out the best bird's nests, ginseng and other supplements for Su Cixuan to replenish her body. Su Cixuan quickly thanked her. She had to accept the gift from the queen, not to mention, she knew,

The queen suddenly asked Qingyi to go to the warehouse to get it instead of preparing it in advance. She must have some ulterior motive, and she couldn't refuse.

Before leaving, the queen suddenly stopped Su Cixuan, and there was a cold threat in her calm voice: "The princess is a smart person. If you want to live a safe life in the palace, it is safest to keep your mouth shut and remain deaf and mute.

." The queen said the word "peace" very seriously.

Su Cixuan's heart was like a mirror, Fu Shen said: "Thank you for your teaching, I will keep it in my heart and I will not let you down."

The queen then let her go with satisfaction.

Among the other concubines, Concubine De Gui sent her some tonics and words of comfort this time. Ci Xuan knew that it must be because of Princess Yonghe.

Traditionally, because she was not taken seriously, the emperor ignored her, the queen suppressed her perfunctorily, the queen mother left the palace to pay homage to the Buddha, and the concubines had no time to take care of themselves. Not many people were willing to take care of her, the daughter of a foreign minister who was almost discarded.

The emperor was also informed that the locust plague in the three counties of Zhangping had eased, and good news came from Lingzhou. The emperor was very happy. Thinking of the daughter of Prince Ling being fostered in the palace, the emperor rarely felt a trace of regret in his heart, so he

He ordered his eunuch, Eunuch Zhang, to summon Su Cixuan.

When Eunuch Zhang came to Ziyun Palace, Su Cixuan was drawing a map according to the description in the book. Seeing that it was Eunuch Zhang who was beside the emperor, she hurriedly put down her brush and came to greet him.

Eunuch Zhang was smiling, but he was not exaggerating. Su Cixuan was quite surprised when he reported that the emperor had summoned him. But she did not dare to show any speculation in front of Eunuch Zhang, so she let Eunuch Zhang go first. She changed her clothes and then arrived.

Jinyu and others hurriedly changed her into the Shangsheng's dress. The two girls secretly thought about Eunuch Zhang's expression just now. Maybe it was a good thing that the emperor summoned the princess.

Not long after Eunuch Zhang returned to the Chengqian Hall, a voice came from outside the hall: "Princess Su Cixuan has an audience."

"My daughter pays homage to the Emperor. Your Majesty is safe." Su Cixuan lowered her eyes and knelt down to salute.

"No courtesy, please get up quickly." The emperor in the dragon chair looked pleasant. He squinted his eyes and looked at Su Cixuan secretly. He hadn't seen her for a long time, but this girl had become so graceful.

"I heard that you were racing with Le Yao the day before yesterday and you almost fell off the horse and got injured. Were you frightened?"

This question was exactly the same as the queen's, and Su Cixuan replied respectfully: "Back to the emperor, my daughter escaped by chance and is no longer in serious trouble." Cixuan answered neither humble nor arrogantly.

When the emperor heard this, he nodded with a smile, and then he said with a hint of complexity in his eyes: "I heard that not only did you defeat Le Yao, but you were also safe even when the horse was frightened and went crazy. It's true that a tiger father has no dog daughter."

Su Cixuan was shocked. It was difficult to answer the emperor's words. After thinking for a while, she lowered her head and said, "The emperor has rewarded you. It was Princess Leyao who accepted the concession, and I was able to win by chance."

The emperor's bright eyes narrowed and he looked at her with some scrutiny, but he saw that she was standing gracefully and gracefully, with good manners, and she moved and retreated appropriately. The emperor secretly sighed that she was actually a girl who could not express her emotions or anger.
