Daughter of the royal palace

Chapter 298: Mother (5)
The maids of Zhaoyang Palace had been waiting for a long time, and when they saw her, they immediately stepped forward to lead the way.

As soon as I stepped in, I could smell a faint warm fragrance. The warmth inside the house was in stark contrast to the bleakness and coldness outside.

Following Biying to the living room, the queen was still wearing the silkworm gold silk colorful feather dress, and the bright red phoenix brocade quilt covering her body.The appearance is beautiful and youthful, noble and elegant.The jet-black hair was bound randomly with a white ribbon, and the hair fell down, revealing the full and round earlobes.She was sitting lazily on the rosewood beauty couch, with her head propped on one hand, her expression indifferent and melancholy.Those sparkling and enchanting phoenix eyes were half-closed at the moment, but exuded an unspeakable charm.The pink lips were slightly parted, revealing a moist luster.She seemed to be having a good dream, and there was some warmth and joy in her brows.The two pretty maids beside her stood respectfully, as if they were afraid of disturbing her afternoon nap.

It is truly a picture of a peerless Sleeping Beauty!As soon as Ling Xihan walked in, she was overwhelmed by the beautiful scenery in front of her for a while, and she didn't want to disturb the woman who seemed to be sleeping.

Bi Ying was also stunned, and then her eyes showed pity, and she couldn't bear to wake her up.

Ling Xihan stood quietly the whole time, she looked at this woman, the noblest and most beautiful woman in the world.This magnificent woman is the envy of thousands of people.

The respect of the queen, the love of the emperor, the honor is unparalleled.A woman who makes men all over the world flock to her.

She was supposed to be a combination of prosperity and wealth in the world, and she was originally a unique snow lotus on the high snow mountain.Fresh and elegant, beautiful.She was supposed to be domineering, she was supposed to be aloof, she was supposed to look down upon the world.

But at this moment, she looks like a child.Such a peaceful sleep, quiet and warm.At this time, she let go of the nobility that all queens should have, shed her majesty and fierceness, and returned to her old appearance.

It was only at this time that Ling Xihan found out.It turned out that she, who had shed all the shackles of her identity, was like a daisy, still beautiful, but not that kind of graceful and luxurious dazzling beauty.But a kind of indifferent demure, elegant and charming.The beauty of the cleanest and clearest ice and snow on the top of a snow mountain, and like a budding orchid in a silent valley, exudes a faint fragrance.

Ling Xihan couldn't help sighing sadly, a little sour, a little pity.

Because it was the first time that she really felt this woman's exhaustion and bitterness, the desolation and helplessness that had gone through the world.

She seemed to see the pair of phoenix eyes as clear as spring water through the fluttering eyelash feathers, hiding not only the beauty of the world, but also the vicissitudes and sadness that can never be resolved.

Such a woman is born to be the nemesis of men, and will only make people feel sorry for her. No matter what, she is reluctant to let her suffer.

She was silent, looking a little confused and in a trance.

After an unknown amount of time, the queen probably heard the voice and slowly opened her eyes.

Those eyes, clear and pure, were shockingly beautiful.Perhaps he had just woken up, and there was still misty white mist in his eyes, making him look more like an ignorant child.

Ling Xihan suddenly felt a pain in her heart, because she saw the empress's pair of phoenix eyes, which were supposed to be the cleanest in the world, at the moment they opened, without any impurities, just like a newborn baby.But in just a split second, a layer of dark mist suddenly rose from the bottom of his eyes, covering the purity on the surface.

She who just woke up is her original face.She is just a disguise now.A kind of thin camouflage because of the identity of the surrounding environment, as well as years of work and life and the coldness of the world.She is always defending herself, because she has no sense of security about everything around her, so pretending is just a way to protect herself.With the queen's martial arts, how could he not have noticed that she had come a long time ago?And she just woke up now, so it can only show that during the period just now, she closed her eyes and listened, and she didn't pay attention to everything around her.

She just wanted to sleep well.

Ling Xihan suddenly understood a little bit, understood why Emperor Yuan Qing cherished the empress so much, he probably felt guilty.Such a woman should not belong to the court, or even to the dirty world.She was supposed to be the cleanest and strangest thing in the world, but for that person, she entered this splendid and filthy imperial palace.That's why he tried his best to give her the best in the world, fame, honor, and unique true love.

At that moment when she was dazed, the queen had already seen her, and her eyes flashed across a soft smile.

"Han'er is here?"

Biying hurried over and helped her sit up.Ling Xihan also came over.

"aunt."

The queen waved her hand, "You all go out."

"Yes" Biying led the palace people back out, leaving only the queen and Ling Xihan behind.

"Come on, Han'er, sit beside me." The queen said to Ling Xihan very kindly.

Ling Xihan didn't shy away, sat beside her, stared at the queen with indifferent eyes, waiting for her to speak.

The queen smiled slightly, "Are you wondering why I let you into the palace?"

"Yes." Ling Xihan answered directly without beating around the bush.

The queen's brows and eyes immediately curved, but the next moment, her eyes dimmed, she sighed deeply, and looked out of the window with wandering eyes.Suddenly said: "Xuan'er likes you."

Ling Xihan was taken aback, she really didn't expect the queen to mention this to her.When he came back to his senses, his cheeks were a little flushed.Especially when she met the queen's clear and smiling phoenix eyes, she felt even more uncomfortable.

"aunt……"

The queen smiled lightly, "Why are you shy? I also came from your age. I know that you also like Xuan'er in your heart, right." The queen's words were not doubts, but affirmations.

Ling Xihan coughed dryly twice, a little dumbfounded.

"Aunt..." She really didn't expect that the queen would speak so bluntly.Well, she admitted that she was indeed attracted to Xiao Tingxuan.But...but the Queen's words are too...

The queen also smiled, and looked at Ling Xihan seriously.

"Han'er, you don't have to be on guard against me. As a woman, I naturally understand your thoughts, and I know that you haven't reached the point where you have to be with Xuan'er, and I won't use my power to force you to follow me. Xuan'er is together."

Ling Xihan felt a little guilty, just now she was really worried that the queen would directly order her to marry Xiao Tingxuan, so she kept her mouth shut.did not expect-

The queen saw through her thoughts, but she was not angry, but gently took her hand and said: "I only have a son like Xuan'er, so I naturally hope that he will live happily." She paused, and then said: "Xuan'er My son was born to me, and I can't understand his character best. That child looks like he doesn't care about anything. In fact, just like his father, once he has someone he cares about, he will use all he has To preserve and cherish."
