At dusk, the golden afterglow falls.
The bright glazed tiles are covered with golden light and shine brightly.
Let the magnificent palaces become more magnificent.
The waterside pavilion with carved beams and painted buildings, the garden with exotic flowers and plants competing for beauty, the lakeside with green leaves and lotus reflecting the sun, the clear and wide green brick avenue, the vermillion-lacquered door, and the high-hanging golden plaque——
Everything reveals the grandeur and wealth of the palace.
Even a weed in a corner of the garden that narrowly escaped the clutches of the gardener seemed more elegant than the weeds outside the palace.
Only Su Jin was incompatible with this picture of wealth.
The floral skirt on her body was not as good-looking as the palace maid's clothes. The rough and raw fabric made it impossible for the skirt to stretch out when walking, making it look like it was wrapped in a low-quality quilt.
What was particularly eye-catching was that there were two large patches sewn on the hem of her skirt.
This patched coarse cloth made her look like a beggar in this magnificent palace.
But she moved every step and every line with ease, without the slightest hint of constraint or embarrassment.
Her expression was calm and peaceful, and her eyes were bright and clear, like a clear spring.
Faintly, there was an otherworldly aura emanating from her body, like a fairy who could not eat the fireworks of the world, which made the magnificent palace compound eclipse a lot.
She is Su Jin.
Su Jin untied her knot and let go of her obsessions.
The Su Jin that Ye Mingyue knew.
"Su Jin, I've seen Grandma Rong, and I want to say hello to her."
Su Jin suddenly stopped and saluted an old woman with a stern look who was walking towards her.
This Aunt Rong is the master of etiquette in the palace. She is not an ordinary master of etiquette, but is responsible for teaching the prince and princess.
She is rigid, stern, and cruel, because all the princes and princesses have been ravaged by the ruler in her hand.
What's pitiful is that after being slapped by her ruler, he didn't dare to complain to anyone or speak out, because once the news reached Su Hanlin's ears, he would be beaten severely by Su Hanlin again.
There were false rumors that Su Hanlin had also received a ruler from this nanny, but he did not dare to look at her because she had taught him etiquette and she was half a teacher.
However, the teacher can't beat him because of his wit, so beat the teacher's students, which will make you feel distressed and distressed.
It's just a hardship for the prince and princess.
"Old slave, I would like to send my regards to Your Highness the Fourth Princess. May your Highness be blessed." Aunt Rong took two quick steps and stepped forward to salute Su Jin.
"My slave, please send your regards to Your Highness the Fourth Princess. May your Highness be blessed." The maids following Grandma Rong also quickly stepped forward to salute Su Jin.
"Mommy, please get up." Su Jin quickly stepped forward to help her, and said to the palace maid behind her: "You all should get up too."
"Thank you, Your Highness." Everyone thanked him.
Aunt Rong stood up and said, "When I heard that Her Royal Highness the Princess had returned to the palace, I quickly asked the maids to prepare a set of clothes. Please—"
"Thank you for taking the trouble." Su Jin interrupted Aunt Rong and said, "I'll leave in a moment, so there's no need to go to such trouble. Besides, I can see that there is something about Su Jin that is not in line with Aunt Rong's teachings. ?"
When Grandma Rong heard this, she opened her mouth to say something, but the words suddenly got stuck on her lips.
She wanted to say that Su Jin was not dressed appropriately and was not in line with the status of a princess.
But there are no ceremonies or palace banquets today, so the prince and princess are allowed to wear casual clothes in the palace.
And there has never been any rule that requires princes and princesses to dress richly and gorgeously on weekdays.
On the contrary, there are several provisions in the Royal Code and Dasu State Code, which require the descendants of the royal family to be frugal in their food and clothing expenses, and extravagance and waste are strictly prohibited.
Although Su Jin was dressed in coarse cloth, he was clean and tidy from head to toe, and his manners were perfect. His whole person was decent and generous, and his temperament was extraordinary.
Although the dress does not appear gorgeous and noble, and can even be said to be poor, the strong confidence, calmness, extraordinary momentum and elegance exuded from the inside out fully reveal the nobility and holiness of the daughter of the royal family.
Those princesses who were gorgeously dressed and noble, but whose hearts had long been corrupted by power and money, were no better than beggars on the street in front of her.
Aunt Rong looked at Su Jin blankly, her eye circles suddenly turned red. She quickly turned around and wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes, then turned around and gave a deep salute to Su Jin. She said with great shame, "It's because of my appearance." . His Majesty is in the Imperial Study Room. Your Majesty, Fourth Highness, please go ahead."
After saying that, he led a group of slaves to get out of the way.
Su Jin and Grandma Rong said goodbye and continued walking forward.
Grandma Rong looked at Su Jin's leaving figure, her eyes moistened again.
She was not sad, but moved. She felt that after spending her whole life teaching etiquette in the royal family, she had finally taught a truly noble and elegant princess.
There will be no regrets in this life and death.
"Mammy, do you still have your ruler? The one that hit us." Su Jin walked twenty or thirty steps away, suddenly stopped, turned around and asked loudly to Grandma Rong.
Aunt Rong's eyes twitched and she replied in a buzzing voice: "No more."
"Discounted?" Su Jin asked in surprise.
Grandma Rong shook her head slightly and said, "I was thrown into the lotus pond by an unruly student and was nowhere to be found."
"——Who is so brave?" Su Jin was extremely surprised.
"The fifteenth prince, Su Zheng!" Aunt Rong said with a dark face.
"Su Zheng?" Su Jin suddenly thought of all the misdeeds Su Zheng had done at Taiping College, and couldn't help but laugh and said, "He is indeed naughty."
"Mammy, Su Jin has been idle outside the palace for four years. Many rules and etiquette have become blurred. I wonder if mama has time to bother teaching Su Jin?" Su Jin asked.
Grandma Rong was stunned when she didn't react, because she had been teaching all her life, and this was the first time that someone took the initiative to seek lessons from her.
"Aunt Rong?" Su Jin called.
"It's a great honor for me, old slave." Grandma Rong said with excitement.
A sense of accomplishment arose in her heart. At this moment, she really wanted to call all the princes and princesses over and let them learn from Su Jin.
"Thank you, mama." Su Jin smiled happily, "Then, I'll see you in Dongqing Palace later."
The princes and princesses who were fighting hunger in the Dongqing Palace suddenly felt an inexplicable chill that made them shiver.
"Brother Thirteen, why is the back of my neck so cold all of a sudden? Is it because the old guy is not asleep?"
Su Zheng, who was walking forward at a cat's waist, suddenly stopped, shuddered and asked Su De, who was walking in front.
"Don't be afraid." Sude turned around and gave him an encouraging look and waved his fist at him: "A true knight must have the courage to overcome the fear in his heart."
"Yes, we must overcome fear and say no to oppression and hegemony." Su Zheng suddenly felt confident and waved his fist to the people behind him to cheer them up.
Su Min, Su You, Su Ye and other princes all gave him a black face and gritted their teeth, wanting to beat this kid up.
Su Zheng woke up from a coma after being fed some white porridge by Su De, and then met Su Rou and Su
De took turns to use his true energy to enter his body to help him resist hunger, so he can survive until now.
Just now a bad idea popped out of his mouth.
He said that he knew the old eunuch Feng Yuxiu best, and with just one glance he knew that Feng Yuxiu had actually fallen asleep standing up.
He encouraged everyone to work together to kill Feng Yuxiu, and then they could find water and food in Dongqing Hall.
You can eat any lotus root, fish and shrimp in the lotus pond, or even the birds raised by Prince Su Hui.
As soon as food was mentioned, a group of half-starved princes and princesses stared at Su Zheng as if they had been given blood.
Then Su Zheng, with everyone watching, proposed that a few masters sneak into the courtyard to attack Feng Yuxiu. As long as Feng Yuxiu is knocked unconscious, they can do whatever they want in Dongqing Palace.
So Su Min and several other masters were elected, and no one objected.
Except themselves, of course.
But in order to win over people's hearts, at such a critical moment that attracted everyone's attention, they couldn't back down and pretend to be grandsons, so they had no choice but to bite the bullet.
So they hated Su Zheng with gnashing of teeth.
Su De didn't need to win over people's hearts, but he wanted to see the power of this father-in-law. He had been hearing legendary stories about him from Su Zheng a lot these days.
A group of eight people squatted, and under Su Zheng's command, they sneaked into the courtyard and slowly approached Feng Yuxiu in an encirclement manner.
The other princes were all lying on the windows at the entrance of the hall, holding their breath to cheer on the eight warriors.
Finally, they were only five steps away from Feng Yuxiu.
Feng Yuxiu didn't react at all.
It seemed that just as Su Zheng said, Feng Yuxiu fell asleep.
Suddenly, Su Zheng made a pause gesture, and the other seven people immediately stopped and looked at Su Zheng questioningly.
Su Zheng immediately made a series of gestures, and the other seven people understood the general meaning.
He said that he had the lowest level of cultivation, so he sacrificed himself to attract Feng Yuxiu's attention first, and then others took advantage of Feng Yuxiu being attracted to him to attack violently, killing him with one blow.
The other seven people nodded in agreement.
Five steps, four steps, three steps——
Feng Yuxiu still didn't notice.
Su Zheng and the others couldn't help showing joy on their faces, because when they got closer, they heard Feng Yuxiu's weak snoring.
Su Zheng raised the corner of his mouth, gave the other seven people a triumphant look, and said, "Did you see, what I said was right, this old guy is indeed asleep."
The seven Suders immediately gave him a thumbs up, and then urged him to take action with their eyes.
Su Zheng's expression turned cold and he gave Feng Yuxiu a stern look, meaning that he was going to give Feng Yuxiu a hard blow.
The seven Suders gave him a thumbs up again.
Su Zheng took a deep breath, and then he held it until the veins on his forehead popped out. He immediately stepped in front of Feng Yuxiu and struck out in anger.
boom!
His foot kicked Feng Yuxiu hard in the crotch.
"Hiss—" Everyone, regardless of gender, took a breath of air, shivered, and cried out for Feng Yuxiu in pain.
Feng Yuxiu opened his eyes suddenly, stared at Su Zheng fiercely, and shouted: "I don't have it."
"Ah?" Su Zheng gave Feng Yuxiu a look that didn't understand him.
boom!
Feng Yuxiu kicked Su Zheng's crotch.
"Ouch——"
Su Zheng immediately fell to the ground holding his crotch and screamed like a slaughtered pig. At the same time, he understood what Feng Yuxiu meant.
