Chapter 57: The Crown of Heaven
Miss Xu, who behaved extremely abnormally today, did not go back to Piaoxue Peak directly after getting off Zhao Yu's carriage halfway, but took her younger brothers and sisters back to Zizhu Lane in the center of Shenjing, the Mansion of the Duke of Wei.
At this time, in the exquisite and simple study of the Duke of Wei, there was a conversation going on.
"Grandpa, I saw him. Miss Xu's whispered voice came out, but sitting on the chair, she didn't have the freedom she used to have, her face was flushed, her head was lowered, and her snow-white chin was almost touching her towering chest.
"Haha, really? What do you think? I can't imagine that our Qing'er is also shy one day, it's really strange!" Wei Guogong Xu Sheng's laughter was quite rough, and it kept echoing throughout the study.
Wei Guogong, who is over seventy years old, is still more vigorous than young people, and his body is burly, and the temperature in Shenjing has turned into ice at this time, but Old Man Xu is still wearing a single coat, revealing a large number of muscles in his chest, and he immediately sits at the desk with a horizontal knife, looking at his eldest granddaughter, his face is full of ridiculous smiles.
Xu Qing watched her grandfather make fun of herself like this, she was angry in her heart, she stomped her feet angrily, and she didn't forget to take out the portrait she had drawn earlier, spread it out, and said angrily: "Grandpa, you lied to me, he looks no different from what you say, much better looking than you say, no wonder I say why I always can't find anyone." ”
Wei Guogong's laughter was even louder: "Don't blame grandpa, the last time grandpa saw him was more than ten years ago, when His Royal Highness was still held in the arms of the crown princess, and now that he has grown up, it is inevitable that there will be a little discrepancy." ”
"It's a bit different? It's not like it at all. ”
Xu Qing pointed to the portrait on the paper, the portrait has a circle, two points in the circle, and a vertical bar, which is a proud work that she spent most of the morning to complete under the guidance of the old man Wei Guogong, and now the more she looks at it, the more twisted she feels.
"In that case, our Xiao Qing'er is very satisfied with His Highness. As he spoke, Wei Guogong looked at Xu Qing with a stronger sense of ridicule in his eyes.
"Grandpa, what are you talking about, what are you dissatisfied, I won't tell you, I'm so sleepy, I'm going to sleep. ”
Miss Xu stood up, pretended to cover her mouth and yawned, accompanied by the hearty laughter of Wei Guogong behind her, and walked out of the study with her slender legs.
After his granddaughter walked away, Wei Guogong, who was sitting at the desk, put away the smile on his face, and his momentum changed, sinking like the sea, squinting his eyes and contemplating.
Xu Sheng, the Duke of Wei, is famous for his loyalty and righteousness, rough on the outside, but careful on the inside, one of the four tiger generals of the Great Xia Dynasty, in the Dingding era, he was deceived by his appearance and became the soul of the dead under the spring.
There is a tiger in his heart, sniffing the roses!
There was a knock on the door outside the study, and an old servant pushed the door in, walked to Wei Guogong's side and whispered a word, and the old man nodded immediately.
"Come on, change clothes, prepare horses, go to the Lingbo Palace!"
After half a pillar of incense, a carriage drove into the White Emperor's Palace from the Wei Mansion in Zizhu Lane.
Tonight, the lights in the Lingbo Hall are bright, and the entire hall is full of dense lights, bright everywhere, and the hall shines like day.
The old queen mother of Daxia did not lie down and rest as usual, but sat upright on a chair, holding a needle and thread in one hand and a crown hat in the other, and was embroidering something with her head down.
In the past few days, the old lady has been personally making the crown hat for her grandson!
A carriage came from the night, and then stopped at the door of the Lingbo Palace, the burly figure stepped into the main hall, Wei Guogong was still wearing a single shirt, but he buttoned all the buttons on his chest, and the expression on his face was solemn and calm.
"Sister Yan, I'm still busy working so late, there is still a period of time before Yu'er and the crown, and your eyes are not good, let's continue to embroider tomorrow." ”
The old empress dowager is one of the most admired people in his life by Xu Sheng, the Duke of Wei, and he has always called her sister, and she has never changed since she was young, even if she has become the most noble queen mother of Great Xia.
The old queen mother looked up at Old Man Xu, lowered down and continued to work, and said lightly: "Thinking about making a crown hat for Yu'er, somehow, my eyes are also very bright, this child has been adrift since he was a child, and I haven't done anything for him, this time this crown hat, I want to do it in advance first, and then let him try it."
"If it doesn't fit, I can still change it, after all, I'm old, and my hands and feet are not good, if I put it aside, I can even make a crown dress these days, unlike now, I only made a crown hat for a few days. ”
"Sister Yan has a heart, presumably Yu'er can definitely feel it. ”
Old man Xu moved a stool to sit next to the old queen mother, his burly body blocked the light, leaving a large shadow in front of the old queen mother, feeling that the sight in front of him was affected, the old queen mother waved at Wei Guogong, and the old man Xu moved the stool in a different direction.
"It is said that Xiao Qing'er and Yu'er met?" the old queen mother's faint voice sounded.
"Yes, Sister Yan, you don't know, Qing'er returned to the Guogong Mansion for the first time tonight, and her face was ashamed. Wei Guogong had a smile on his face.
The old queen mother also showed a slight smile, and then said: "I'll just say, our family Yu'er is like his grandfather, this appearance must not be said, I won't wronged your family Qing'er, then again, I haven't seen that girl for a long time, when will you let her come to this Lingbo Hall to talk to my old lady, I really envy the young people now, they are vibrant." ”
Old man Xu nodded, didn't speak, quietly watched the old lady busy, the old queen mother embroidered the last stitch of the crown hat, interspersed each other with a knot, and then bit off the embroidery thread with her mouth, this crown hat is completely completed.
The old queen mother casually handed the crown hat that had just been made to Wei Guogong beside her, the crown and hat were fine, every stitch and thread was appropriate, the crown was nine inches high, upright, and the top was less oblique, but it was straight down for the iron curl beam, and then the old man Xu saw that the front wall of the crown was a lot higher than the top of the hat beam, which was majestic and prominent, and suddenly his face changed greatly, and he blurted out: "Sister Yan, this is not the Yuanyou crown, this is the Tongtian crown!"
The crown of heaven, the crown hat worn by the emperor!
"I want Xiu'er to become a family, continue the incense for the old Zhao family, and by the way, I can also take care of me, an old woman who is dying. ”
In the brightly lit Lingbo Palace, the light shone on the old lady's steady face, but the sound resounding in the hall was sharper than any thunder in the world!
The regent Empress Wu has reigned for 12 years, and she has been alone and has not yet started a family, because the old queen mother has never allowed it! Now that the old queen mother said this, her attitude is already very clear.
Before she died, she would personally change the throne of Great Xia!
Although Xu Sheng, the Duke of Wei, was prepared for this matter in his heart, when he heard the old queen mother's words, his heart was still shocked, and he couldn't calm down for a long time!
Then he thought of the regent Empress Wu, who had become more and more majestic in recent years, the generals of Liuye Lane who supported Empress Wu, and the Marquis of Zhenyu, who was the number one god general in the Shenji Pavilion, and the tens of millions of soldiers who fought with foreign races in the western frontier of Great Xia!
Finally a figure came to his mind, the young figure that made his granddaughter blush, tall and handsome, in fact, he had secretly looked at it when he heard the report from his subordinates today.
He is very much like His Majesty Taizu!
Can he carry the entire Great Xia?
