060 Ordinary people live long in the palace
Su Wan woke up very late on the second day because she slept late due to various entanglements the night before.
Muxiang also knew that the princess was very angry when she got up, so she didn't dare to call her. It wasn't until word came from the Yangxin Palace that Duke Su had entered the palace and was talking to the emperor in the Yangxin Palace, that she pushed away.
Walked through the door.
Fortunately, Su Wan had woken up at this time and saw Mu Xiang coming in and said: "Mu Xiang, come here and help me change my clothes. The emperor said that grandpa will enter the palace today, so I have to go there early to wait."
Mu Xiang couldn't help but smile when she saw the princess' anxious look: "Princess, Duke Su has entered the palace, and the emperor has sent someone over to send a message for you to come over."
Su Wan:……
Then why didn't you wake her up earlier? Thinking of how angry she was when she woke up, Su Wan whined, hugged the quilt and got out of bed quickly. Mu Xiang hurried over to take care of her.
When they arrived at Yangxin Hall, Su Wan saw Wang Deshun outside from a distance.
"Eunuch," Su Wan shouted in a soft and waxy voice.
Wang Deshun smiled hurriedly and said: "Princess, you are finally here. The Emperor has asked you several times. Come on, come on, Lord Su Guo is playing chess with the Emperor inside."
Su Wan glanced at Wang Deshun with a smile, then suddenly stood still and looked at Wang Deshun and said, "Did Eunuch Wang catch a cold last night? His voice is a little hoarse today."
Wang Deshun was taken aback and said with a smile: "Thank you for your concern, Princess. I accidentally caught a cold yesterday, but I'm much better now."
Su Wan smiled when she heard this: "That's good. Your Majesty, please pay more attention to your health."
"Thank you, Princess, for your concern. Princess, please come inside." Wang Deshun led the way.
Entering the Yangxin Hall, Su Wan saw Su Guogong playing chess with Emperor Kanghua from a distance. Su Guogong seemed to be in good spirits and looked in high spirits.
Emperor Kang Hua also had a smile on his face, looking at Su Guogong who was now in high spirits but frowning slightly, and did not rush him.
Wang Deshun sent her in and stood aside without disturbing her. Naturally, Su Wan couldn't speak, so she stayed aside obediently, waiting for the two of them to finish the game of chess.
Although, she looked like she rushed into Duke Su's arms and wanted him to hug her.
The two of them played for a while, and finally Su Guogong shook his head and sighed: "Wei Chen lost."
After saying that, Duke Su put down the chess piece in his hand and looked up at the smiling Emperor Kang Hua opposite him.
Before Emperor Kang Hua could speak, Su Guogong saw Su Wan who had been standing aside for who knows how long: "Awan, you are here."
Emperor Kanghua turned his head slightly, and Su Wan saluted respectfully: "Su Wan, see the emperor, see Duke Su!"
"This girl, there are no outsiders here, no need to be polite!" Emperor Kanghua said with a smile: "When did you come here, why didn't you hear any sound?"
Su Wan said softly and sweetly: "I just came here for a while, and I saw the emperor and grandpa playing chess happily, and Awan knew that since ancient times, there is a saying that a true gentleman watches chess but does not speak, so Awan was waiting aside.
"
"What a true gentleman who watches chess without saying anything!" Emperor Kanghua looked at Su Wan with admiration: "Wan'er can also play chess?"
Su Wan quickly shook her head: "I've only seen grandpa do it, but A-wan doesn't know how to do it. Grandpa also told A-wan this."
As for whether Su Guogong said this, Su Wan is not worried. As long as she knows that Su Guogong is on her side.
Emperor Kanghua looked at Duke Su: "The granddaughter taught by Duke Su, the Princess Fenglin whom I personally named Princess Fenglin, is quite good."
"Your Majesty praised me." When his granddaughter was praised, Su Guogong was naturally overjoyed.
After some more polite words, Emperor Kanghua finally let her go and allowed Su Wan to accompany Su Guogong for a walk. In the harem, Su Guogong, as a foreign minister, naturally could not move around at will.
In the end, we had no choice but to go to the Imperial Garden.
On the way, Su Wan, who was being led by Su Guogong, raised her little head, blinked her big black eyes and asked Su Guogong: "Grandpa, why did you leave Awan alone in the palace that day?"
She didn't believe that Su Guogong would not ignore her.
But why should she be left alone in the palace? The right and wrong in the harem is because after she was framed by the queen and Princess Manhe and fell into the lake, Duke Su also left her here.
She had to ask more about the reason for this.
Su Guogong smiled and gently touched her little head: "Awan was very weak at the time and had to stay in the palace. And grandpa, grandpa was a foreign minister. Although he could stay in the palace because of Awan,
But in this palace..."
"A lot of people talk a lot, but it's better for grandpa to avoid suspicion. Grandpa knows that the emperor really cares about you, and he also knows that the imperial master has said that you will be in danger this time, so he feels relieved and returns.
Fuzhong."
Looking at Su Wan, Su Guogong asked softly: "Does Awan blame grandpa for leaving Awan alone in the palace?"
After looking at Duke Su for a while, Su Wan nodded slightly: "Although those people in Duke Su's mansion hate Awan, it is my grandfather's mansion after all."
"But here, it's so big and strange. There are life-threatening things everywhere. You'll be dragged out and beheaded at every turn. Awan is scared!"
As she spoke, Su Wan tightly held Su Guogong's sleeves, and her voice was choked: "Awan wants to be with grandpa, not in this palace compound."
It was really hard for her to look at people everywhere and rely on others.
But she couldn't say this.
This is the royal palace, the place where imperial power is supreme.
If such words were heard and told to Emperor Kang Hua, her life would probably be over.
"The emperor likes Awan so he keeps Awan in the palace. Many people can't ask for such an opportunity." Su Guogong coaxed softly: "Of course, if Awan is really unwilling, grandpa can also go.
Talk to the emperor."
Su Wan lowered her head and bit her lip: "Grandpa, Awan mentioned it to the emperor yesterday, but the emperor was not happy. So, grandpa, don't mention it."
Su Guogong was stunned for a moment, and then a faint pain slowly rose in his eyes. He bent down and gently hugged Su Wan.
"Grandpa's Awan..." A faint voice with a hint of sigh pierced deeply into Su Wan's heart.
With the look on his face, did grandpa know that the emperor would definitely keep her in the palace, so he took the initiative to leave first?
Leaving Su Guogong's ear, Su Wan asked in a low voice: "Grandpa, is it because Awan has the blood of the Qingliu Kingdom royal family?"
Su Guogong, who was holding her body, trembled slightly and gently stroked her hair with a low voice that only the two of them could hear.
"Awan, in the palace, the more ordinary people are, the longer they live."
This time, it was Su Wan's turn to tremble.
Su Guogong let go of her slightly and looked at her big black, bright and pure eyes: "The Mid-Autumn Festival will be in two months, and the Queen Mother has said that you will also participate."
"You are the eldest daughter of Su Guogong's third wife. When the time comes, it will naturally be better for you to enter the palace with your grandfather from Su Guogong's mansion."
The implication is that she may stay in this palace for another two months, until the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Burying her head into Su Guogong's neck, Su Wan nodded dullly: "Then when Awan misses grandpa, will grandpa go to the palace to see Awan?"
Su Guogong smiled and nodded: "Of course!"
Amelia Su pursed her lips, as if she had made a big decision, and then nodded slowly: "Okay, Awan, keep insisting!"
Seeing his granddaughter's serious look like a young adult, Su Guogong couldn't help but smile again.
Deep down in my heart, I was filled with sourness.
I just hope he didn't do anything wrong.
