A bride, how did she meet Emperor Qianlong?
How did she win the appreciation of Emperor Qianlong with her courage and wisdom?When the emperor and the sedan chair met, what kind of magical scene was brewed?
At six o'clock in the morning, the sunlight shines through the branches of the thousand-year-old pine, dappled on the quiet courtyard of Yue Fei Temple. On this mid-spring morning, the weather was fine, and even the breeze was a little lazy.
Emperor Qianlong wore simple clothes and came to Yue Fei Temple with a few henchmen. He stood in front of the statue of Yue Fei and bowed slowly.
The founding emperor of this country behaved as religiously as ordinary people at the moment. He folded them gently, silently reciting in his heart the admiration for that heroic martyr through the ages.
The inside of Yue Fei's temple is very quiet, only cigarette smoke curls and the occasional birdsong comes from the window. Qianlong had mixed emotions and stared at the resolute face of Yue Fei's statue for a long time.
He could deeply understand Yue Fei's feelings of loyalty to the country, but he couldn't fully agree with the incomprehensible decision of the imperial court to Yue Fei back then. The changes in history are too complex, and it is difficult to comment on the ancestors from the perspective of future generations.
Shuai, I understand your loyalty, and I understand your loneliness. Qianlong whispered to himself in his heart. He knew that he and Yue Fei were two completely different destinies, but they had produced some subtle spiritual fit in this moment of silence.
After the worship, Qianlong embarked on a journey to inspect the south of the Yangtze River. It was supposed to be a quiet trip until a small episode occurred this morning.
At 9 o'clock in the morning, Qianlong's car came to a narrow country road near a village in Henan. At this time, they were confronted by a group of sedan chairs and bands that were marching in the direction of the village.
This is a team to welcome relatives, and sitting in the sedan chair is the most beautiful girl in the village, Liu Ruolian. She is dressed beautifully today, and she is dressed in red, which is the standard dress for a bride.
Qianlong's convoy and the sedan chair team met head-on, and instantly fell into a stalemate. According to the rules, the greeting party should actively avoid the royal car, but the driver cannot turn around on this narrow country road.
For a while, the two teams looked at each other, and the scene was quite embarrassing.
At this time, Liu Ruolian took the initiative to open the sedan curtain, her beautiful eyes widened, and she looked ahead: "I heard that the emperor is coming, and there is something important to do, please give way to the emperor!."”
Her voice was crisp and beautiful, but her tone was extremely resolute. The face under the red hijab exudes strength and independence.
Today is the day of great joy in the next day, and there is no delay. Please also ask the emperor to fulfill it!”
Liu Ruolian's words were to the point, which surprised both teams. How could an ordinary village girl dare to make such a blunt request to the emperor?This was absolutely unprecedented at the time.
However, what was even more surprising was that Qianlong did not show the slightest displeasure, on the contrary, a smile of appreciation flashed in his eyes.
Come, invite this brave bride to come. Qianlong beckoned to his attendants and ordered the convoy to get out of the way.
Liu Ruolian raised her head and walked to the car, saluted slightly, and looked at Qianlong in the car.
Is the Qing family a local family?Qianlong looked at her for a long time.
Precisely. Under the third lady of the Liu family, Liu Ruolian. ”
Do you know that the Son of Heaven is in front of you?”
Nature knows. It's just that.
Just what?”
It's just a good day to step on the red carpet today, and I can't bear to delay. Please also make it perfect!Liu Ruolian didn't seem to be afraid of the distinguished middle-aged man in front of her.
Qianlong couldn't help but smile slightly, nodded and said, "What a Miss Liu San, her courage is commendable." Since you are so clever, why don't we compare them. ”
Analogy?Liu Ruolian was slightly stunned.
is like a pair, Qing can get the old man's uplink, so Qing will go first. ”
Good!Liu Ruolian should accept without hesitation.
Qianlong cleared his throat: "The bride with red makeup, where will you go hand in hand with Yan'er?"”
Liu Ruolian pondered for a moment, and a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes: "Horizontal criticism: a good relationship is made today;."Answer: The sedan chair tends to be happy in the cave room!”
In the crowd of onlookers from the two teams, there was an exclamation of surprise.
After Qianlong heard this, not only did he not have the slightest anger, but his smile deepened. He bowed his head and praised Liu Ruolian: "Good!."Good!Sure enough, she is a woman with both intelligence and intelligence, and the old man admires it!”*
In the face of such a high-level praise from the emperor, Liu Ruolian was neither humble nor arrogant, but just smiled lightly, her eyes were smart: "Thank you Your Majesty for your kind words, it's just good luck in the next place." ”
Qianlong saw that she had both courage and wisdom, and admired her a lot. He summoned the court calligrapher, took out the pen and inkstone, and wrote a couplet with the pen.
I saw that Qianlong's pen was strong and powerful, and the four big characters of "Red Makeup Beauty" were written in one go.
He dropped his pen and said to Liu Ruolian: "Today's encounter amazed me with my courage and wisdom. This ink treasure will be given to you as a dowry, remember to keep it properly. ”
Liu Ruolian took the couplet, tears flashing in her eyes. She didn't expect that an ordinary village girl's obedience would be able to get such a generous gift. It was beyond her imagination.
Thank you, Your Majesty!Thank you, Your Majesty!She kept saying words of gratitude. The Liu family was also so excited that they burst into tears, and they kowtowed to Qianlong and his party. It was a great event.
The guards who received the holy decree immediately arranged for the Liu family's welcoming team to pass first. The royal motorcade pulls to the side of the road to give way to the flower car convoy.
Liu Ruolian sat in a sedan chair and walked slowly surrounded by everyone. Her face was filled with a happy smile, and the reward from Qianlong in her hand made her look picturesque.
Along the way, the villagers stood on the side of the road to watch this rare grand scene. Behind the sedan chair of the Liu family's wealthy family, there were royal car driving guards, which was simply an earth-shattering event in the local area.
And Qianlong sat in the car, looking at the sedan chair in front of him and moving away, and his eyes also showed a look of admiration.
He wanted to inspect the customs outside Beijing today, but he unexpectedly gained a legendary story. For a person like him who has experienced countless winds and waves, this has also become a good story in his life.
Three years later, Qianlong held an exhibition in the palace. Famous masters from all over the world came to meet him. The paintings are gathered and the subject matter is rich and colorful.
Among the many far-reaching figure paintings on display, there is one "Red Makeup" that is particularly eye-catching. The woman in the painting is the brave and intelligent Liu Ruolian back then.
When Qianlong saw this painting, he immediately ordered someone to invite Liu Ruolian. Liu Ruolian, who had already given birth to two sons, stepped into the palace again and recalled the encounter with Qianlong three years ago.
You and I have a fate, and I will come back again in the future when I have time, how about learning from you and me?Qianlong said with a smile.
Obey!Liu Ruolian smiled and bowed her head slightly.
