1632 Thank God
Shu Tianci looked at Gu Xiaowan, and saw Gu Xiaowan sitting there without arrogance or impetuosity, her brows were lowered respectfully, her eyebrows and eyes were gentle, and she couldn't help but secretly praised again in her heart.
This kind of demeanor, I am afraid that a noble girl who was raised by the nun from a young age would not be able to do it.
The one at the end is called a person with a noble temperament, gentle and elegant, and outstanding!
Even Shu Tianci, who has seen countless beauties, couldn't help but take a second look at the bearing on that body.
That gray dress, with the beautiful red hibiscus flowers blooming on the hem of the skirt, the strong collision of gray and red, complemented her snow-white skin and charming red lips!
I couldn't help being overjoyed, and said with a smile: "I really can't see that the princess came from the countryside since childhood. With such a demeanor, she looks like a member of the royal family. If she didn't know that the mother's mother only gave birth to Zhen and Lihua, I'm afraid I would have thought that The princess is my long-lost sister!"
Gu Xiaowan learned from Tan Yushu that this Lihua is the younger sister of the current emperor and the biological daughter of the empress dowager, with a noble status and supreme glory.
This is the emperor praising himself!
When Gu Xiaowan heard this, she quickly knelt down and replied respectfully: "The emperor is the emperor of ninety-five years, the eldest princess is a golden branch and a jade leaf, and the folk girl is just a country girl. How can the emperor praise her so much? The folk girl is terrified!"
She was indeed a little surprised that the emperor would say such a thing, and hurriedly said.
Seeing Shu Tianci wave his hand, he said with a smile: "You don't need to be humble! I heard that you and Huguo are close friends?"
"If you go back to the emperor, yes!"
"That would be easy, Eunuch Qi. Tomorrow, I will send two foster nuns to teach the princess etiquette at the princess's mansion. Although the princess is well-mannered, there are still many constraints in the palace. I hope the princess will study hard. In the future Duoduo went to the palace to talk with my mother. You were so good at grilling yesterday. I told my mother, but she still complained that I was an unfilial son. She didn’t save some of such delicious food! From now on, when you are coming, my mother wants to eat Let her eat as much as she wants!"
Shu Tianci thought that after his mother found out about his canonization yesterday, he called him to go there.
After listening to her own details, the queen mother became very interested in the princess.
"Thank you, the emperor, for your kindness, thank you for your kindness!" Gu Xiaowan said words of gratitude, but she felt a little bored in her heart.
This palace is like purgatory, she intended to stay away from here, but she never expected that as she walked forward step by step, she was getting closer and closer to this palace that cannibalize people without spit out bones.
Gu Xiaowan was sad in her heart, but she didn't dare to show it at all, she hurriedly lowered her head and kowtowed to the heaven.
Shu Tianci waved his hand, and the displeasure that he hadn't thought of a countermeasure just now dissipated, thinking about the purpose of Gu Xiaowan's visit today, he was in a good mood: "Come here, reward Anping Princess with a thousand taels of gold and a hundred pieces of brocade, A hundred hectares of fertile land, ten night pearls, and a jade handle!"
Eunuch Qi on one side sang: "The emperor rewards the princess of Anping with a thousand taels of gold, a hundred pieces of brocade, a hundred hectares of fertile land, ten night pearls, and a jade handle!"
Gu Xiaowan knelt down again to thank her: "My daughter, I thank the emperor for the reward."
Shu Tianci nodded, looked at the unsolved chess game, the aroused pride in his heart suddenly rose again, waved his hand, and stopped looking at Gu Xiaowan, and said, "Eunuch Qi, take her to thank the queen mother." Bar!"
Gu Xiaowan knelt down again, kowtowed to God, and then followed Eunuch Qi away.
All the way out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the maids and servants next to her knelt down again, singing greetings to the Princess.
Gu Xiaowan kept looking straight ahead, got up with a cold voice, and followed Eunuch Qi out.
And along the way, Gu Xiaowan had seen the brilliance and glory of the princess of the second rank.
Walking all the way to the Palace of Mercy Ning, I met maids and servants along the way, saw Eunuch Qi and visitors, maybe I heard that the chief of Anping County, who was canonized yesterday, entered the palace to give thanks, all of them looked like human beings, Gu Xiaowan's identity was 100% correct, which surprised her.
Then, it was the black head that looked all the way, and the knees that knelt down with a plop.
The outside of the hall is paved with bluestone slabs, which are hard. Those people seemed to be not afraid of pain at all, and knelt down with a plop, without blinking their eyes.
Thinking of the fact that I was in the Hall of Mental Cultivation just now, I knelt down at every turn, and my knees hurt after knocking a few times. These maids and servants will worship a master when they see a master. At the end of that day, don't they kneel down and bleed?
Thinking of this, Gu Xiaowan felt that this was the only way to go.
Although she pursues equality for everyone and doesn't want to kneel down at every turn, this is after all an ancient, deep-rooted thinking of superiors, so she has to follow this system.
If she was like other time-traveling women, clamoring for equality, even the emperor would be the same as the common people, if she didn't need to kneel down, she would have been dragged out and beaten to death long ago.
Thinking of this, she thought that the other person she was going to meet now was the most noble woman in the whole world, and her vigilance added to her heart.
Eunuch Qi smiled, and led Gu Xiaowan all the way to the Palace of Compassion.
Gu Xiaowan walked all the way, watching the long corridor of the palace gate without turning her eyes.
The green tiles and vermilion tiles in the palace are majestic, tall and majestic, with a solemn royal style.
When they arrived at the gate of the Palace of Compassion and Ning, Eunuch Qi asked Gu Xiaowan to wait at the gate of the palace, while he himself went in to report.
After a while, Eunuch Qi came out and shouted loudly: "The empress dowager announces that Anping county head Gu Xiaowan will see you!"
After singing the promise, Gu Xiaowan followed Eunuch Qi into the Palace of Compassion and Ning, and walked to the main hall of the Palace of Compassion and Ning.
The main hall, the Compassionate Palace, is in the middle, with front and rear corridors, yellow glazed tiles with double eaves on the top of the mountain, double crossing and four bowls of water chestnut flowers and doors. Although the decoration is simple, it reveals low-key luxury everywhere.
Gu Xiaowan didn't dare to look around, she lowered her head and followed step by step. When she saw the peonies and cloud patterns embroidered with gold thread on the skirt three meters away in front of her, she knelt down, bowed her head respectfully and said: "Gu Xiaowan, a civilian girl, kowtows to the empress dowager, and the empress is a thousand years old!"
Xu Shi noticed the empress dowager looking at her from above, but did not hear the empress dowager's voice. Gu Xiaowan kowtowed motionlessly, respectfully and calmly.
