454 Golden branches and jade leaves

The palace lantern illuminated the entire palace as bright as day. Princess Yangping sat on the soft couch. The palace was as warm as spring. She wore a thin moon blue double-breasted skirt and her well-maintained black hair was long and loose.

He looked at the exquisite delicacies on the table in the distance, his eyes distracted.

Two beautiful palace maids with good faces stood aside with their hands raised, looking at her uneasily from time to time.

Princess Yangping has been like this for the whole day, not eating or drinking, occasionally lying down on the soft couch, and most of the time sitting there, staring at a certain place in a daze for a long time.

There was a gentle knock on the door. Princess Yangping raised her eyes and looked up. The palace maid Jingshu whispered: "Princess, let me go and take a look."

The person who came outside the door was the female official next to Concubine Mu. She spoke to Jingshu in a low voice. Jingshu nodded and said, "I understand, Aunt Yujing."

"Where's the princess, are you okay?"

"Not good...same as before."

The female officer glanced into the palace and sighed: "Let's coax her. Your Majesty is too busy taking care of herself that she can't tell where she is from."

Jingshu nodded: "Yes, aunt."

The female officer left and Jingshu closed the door and came back.

After a blessing ceremony, Jingshu said: "Princess, the imperial concubine said that we will set off early tomorrow morning, or most likely overnight."

"Set off overnight?" Princess Yangping said blankly, "Is there a big wind and snow outside?"

"big."

"Then why are you in such a hurry..."

"Princess," Jingshu looked at her worriedly, "You should have something to eat. If you really set out all night, the car will be bumpy and it will be very hard."

Princess Yangping didn't seem to hear it, and responded very softly: "Oh..."

"Yes, princess," another palace maid, Feng Qin, said with concern, "you should eat something first. You haven't eaten for a day, so you can't starve your body. You have a delicate body."

"Golden branches and jade leaves." Princess Yangping murmured, her beautiful eyes looking at the jade plate of delicacies on the table.

The food was exquisite, and the utensils used to hold the food were brought from the palace. They were her favorite set of Yaotai eight-treasure moon-white jade tableware, inlaid with luxurious special coral beads.

The meals in the Daqian palace were very luxurious and exquisite, and the eating utensils used to hold the food were made of different styles and materials according to different seasons, times, and occasions.

This royal style with exquisite details is not only reflected in the meals, but also in every aspect that Princess Yangping has been exposed to during her childhood.

Supremely respected, loved by thousands, the apple of the emperor's eye, she is the princess of Daqian!

Princess Yangping's eyes turned red and tears rolled down her face.

"Princess!"

Jingshu and Fengqin were frightened. They knelt down in front of her, supported the soft couch and said, "Princess, please don't cry."

"Princess, the Emperor still loves you."

Do you care?

Princess Yangping could hardly remember what her father who loved her looked like. All she could think of was the look in Emperor Xuanyan's eyes, cruel, vicious, and cursing... That was the look of extreme pain and hatred.

Bar.

But she really didn't know what she had done wrong. As the princess of Daqian, she defended the dignity of the royal family, so what was wrong?

Those people in the mountains did not take them seriously, and the reckless and vulgar kid pointed directly at the emperor's nose and scolded him. If he said that this wild kid was not related to the Yuanhe Sect, who would believe it? This one crime alone is enough to bring the entire family to justice.

The Yuanhe clan was executed!

So, what did she do wrong?

How could a majestic emperor, the king of a country, and the most respected person be allowed to be insulted by a child in the mountains? How could the royal dignity be trampled on by a run-down sect in this barren mountain?

Princess Yangping huddled up and burst into tears.

The fear and fear that she had been suppressing since she left Beijing were no longer controlled today, and seemed to be swallowed up and buried by the wildly rising waves of the river.

"If I had agreed to go and get married early, would today's situation be different?" Princess Yangping cried and said, "We wouldn't be so embarrassed, we wouldn't be laughed at, and we wouldn't be so tired of traveling and leaving.

Imperial Palace, leave the capital and rush on the road in the heavy snowstorm."

The two little palace maids did not dare to answer the conversation. After all, they were the most unwilling people in the world to let Princess Yangping marry. Who would want to leave their hometown and go to a place where they were unfamiliar with the place and couldn't even speak the language.

"I'm not willing to give in!" Princess Yangping wiped away her tears and said, "I'm not willing to give in at all!"

"Princess." Jingshu looked at her worriedly.

"By the way," Princess Yangping looked at Fengqin and said, "As you said before, Princess Jiarong and Li Ping went to find An Cheng?"

Fengqin nodded: "Yes, Princess Jiarong and Miss Li Ping wanted to ask Princess Ancheng to go to see Queen Nangong, but Princess Ancheng refused to meet."

"What happened next?" Princess Yangping asked, "Did they go there themselves?"

"I went, but Queen Nangong also refused to see them." Fengqin said.

Princess Yangping sobbed and nodded thoughtfully.

Jingshu saw her appearance and said, "Princess, are you going to see them?"

"Yes," Princess Yangping said, "I have this plan."

"No, princess," Jingshu said hurriedly, "Princess Ancheng and the queen don't want to see them, there must be a reason. What's more, they are not looking for you, so we can't rush to find them."

Princess Yangping frowned slightly, glanced at her, and said, "Then, I'll go find An Cheng."

Jingshu and Fengqin suspected that their ears had heard wrongly.

Emperor Xuanyan had three princesses. After Princess Li Xin of Changning married Weng Xiaohe, the eldest son of General Weng Ying, there were only two princesses in the palace, Princess Yangping and Princess Ancheng.

The two princesses have not been close to each other since they were children, and they will not even pretend to be friendly on the surface. Now, Princess Yangping actually takes the initiative to say that she wants to find Princess Ancheng.

Princess Yangping always did as she was told, and then she reached out and pushed them gently: "Quickly, go get my clothes and change them for me. I'll go find her right away!"

"But princess, it's too late now." Jingshu said.

"Yes, not to mention that Princess Ancheng has never dealt with you. If we go to find her, we are afraid that..." Fengqin stopped talking.

"I can't do it alone," Princess Yangping said. "My brain is not good and I can't think of any good solutions. I need someone to discuss it. The so-called big business does not care about meticulousness. How can I care about the danger of our country and our country?"

Those little fights in the past."

Jingshu and Fengqin were stunned, looking straight at Princess Yangping as if they no longer recognized her.

"You guys go quickly," Princess Yangping said, "Why are you standing still? Jingshu will come with me later, and Fengqin will stay and pack her things."

Jingshu and Fengqin could only nod and said, "Yes, princess."

Watching them go to get clothes and toiletries, Princess Yangping withdrew her gaze.

"How great would it be if I could turn the tide?" Princess Yangping said very softly. For some reason, a woman's figure suddenly appeared in her mind, and it was none other than Tao Lan.
