Chapter 177 Snow Appreciation

Li Tian got out of the car in front of the palace gate and saw Mrs. Zhou's car parked in front of Chang'an Houfu. Mrs. Zhou was holding the girl's hand and getting out of the car. Li Tian hurried forward to salute. Mrs. Zhou just pulled Li Tian and said two words. A small servant followed them to warm the sedan chair and rushed to Mrs. Zhou. She smiled respectfully and said, "The old lady is well. My mother told me that the old lady is an elder and old man. Please take the sedan chair to enter."

"Thank you for your love." Mrs. Zhou thanked her politely and respectfully: "I'm sorry to bother you," listened to Mrs. Zhou's words. In the first two steps on the little girl next to her, a purse was turned out of her hand, and skillfully stuffed into the two middle-aged servants who carried the sedan chair. Yingluo and Qingzhi lowered their eyebrows, but the remaining light from the corners of their eyes stared at the girl and looked at Li Tian clearly. Li Tian's eyes turned slightly and signaled that she didn't have to. This was to pick up Mrs. Zhou, and it was not her turn to plug the benefits.

"As soon as I was in the car, I looked at the surprisingly flexible snow sculpture in the palace this year. I was planning to reward it anyway. It happened that it was still early now, so let me appreciate the snow sculpture and evacuate my muscles and bones." Mrs. Zhou smiled cheerfully and said that the little servant would not have to insist on listening to what Mrs. Zhou said. She answered with a smile and led the warm sedan chair not far away to follow, preparing for Mrs. Zhou to use it when she was tired of walking.

Mrs Zhou waved to Li Tian: "Sister Tian will walk with me." Li Tian stepped forward to help Mrs. Zhou and walked slowly into the palace with her.

"Look at this pair of snow lions, this little naive, this old one, look, how loving it is, obviously a pile of snow, carved by lions, but it makes people think that this is a mother and son. The mother looks at her children like this, how good it is." As Mrs. Zhou walked, she pointed to the snow sculpture on the roadside and said to Li Tian, "This snow lion must be a person who loves her children very much. I know that this is the heart of a parent, no matter how old the child is, there is no way to put it down."

Li Tian's heart moved slightly, but Mrs. Zhou changed the topic again: "Look at that pair of sparrows, it's really vivid. Thanks to how he carved it..." Mrs. Zhou looked at the comments all the way and exclaimed, and there were some gossip intermittently in the middle: "... This snow sculpture is really better and better every year. I remember The first time I entered the palace, after so many years, I can still remember it clearly. At that time, I just married the Zhu family, and it was also winter. Mrs. First Lady Ge took me into the palace. At that time, there were no snow sculptures in the palace. The emperor was very lively. At that time, as long as it snowed, there would be a banquet in the palace to enjoy the snow. The scene was big. All women above the third grade in the capital had to be invited. ...I still remember the first time I saw your grandmother. She was also dressed in blue and generous, which made people like it. Later, she gave birth to your father and gave birth to your daughter. Your mother-in-law is a good-looking person. Everyone likes her, and even the eldest princess who went first is kind to her. If not, your grandmother will also You can't marry your mother. In those years, your mother was one of the most talented women in our capital. She recited poems and compositions from the front palace. Your mother's poems, paintings, and pianos were all excellent... Later, she married your father. They were really a pair of golden boys and jade girls. Just like you and your fifth brother, people admired them... The official is a simple man. In mind, if you think of the former queen, if it is lively, this harem can't be compared with the past. Naturally, this snow banquet is naturally much less, and it is not as lively and luxurious as before. You don't know how many times you and your grandmother have to come since childhood. Although it is not as lively as before, Mrs. Ye's snow banquet is more ingenious. Year by year, it's really hard to be a mother..."

Li Tian listened attentively to Mrs. Zhou's detailed chatter. Mrs. Zhou seemed to be a little more intimate than before. Naturally, she treated her intimately not because she and her granddaughter were a concubine.

Li Tian gently and respectfully supported Mrs. Zhou, walked all the way to see and stop, and gossiped. When she arrived at the Kuaijing Pavilion, many people had gathered inside and outside the Kuaijing Pavilion.

Seeing Li Tian helping Mrs. Zhou come over, the buzzing whisper outside the Jing Pavilion seemed to suddenly stop before then buzzing again. Countless eyes or directly or peeking glances intertwined on Li Tian. Li Tian did not seem to feel anything strange. Like the clever juniors in the capital, she still supported Mrs. Zhou and followed Mr. Zhou. People greeted everyone all the way, saw the salute, and entered the fast-catching pavilion.

In the Kuaijing Pavilion, Zhu Mingyan accompanied Ye Guifei and was talking to several high-ranking old ladies and husbands. Seeing Mrs. Zhou come in, Ye Guifei bowed over and smiled slightly and said, "After all, the ancestors have been to the border. No one can compare with this strong body and bones. Look, Baba Shangren lifted the warm sedan chair. Picking her up, the ancestors had to walk in with the snow all the way! Go and help your mother-in-law sit down and have a rest. Ye Guifei smiled and motioned to Zhu Mingyan. Zhu Mingyan hurried forward a few steps, helped Mrs. Zhou on the other side, and went to an empty chair in Ye Guifei's left hand.

Li Tian took the opportunity to let go of Mrs. Zhou, respectfully salute Concubine Ye and Jiang Guifei, and then saluted the old ladies and ladies who were still sitting or standing up to greet Mrs. Zhou.

Mrs. Sun waved to Li Tian and said, "Sister Tian, come to me and let me have a good look." Li Tian smiled and took a few steps, bent her knees and blessed Mrs. Sun again. Mrs. Sun took her hand and looked up and down lovingly and said, "If you become a family, you will be an adult. If your grandmother is still there, I don't know how happy you will be if you are so good."

Jiang Guifei sat next to Mrs. Sun and took over and laughed, "On the day of her marriage, she came in with her fifth brother. I suddenly remembered that when her parents were married, when her mother was married, I was still a girl at home. The bustle was seen from the beginning to the end. In a blink of an eye, Sister Tian was like this. It's big."

Li Tian smiled softly. Although her parents' marriage was happy, it was extremely short, as bad as fireworks, but she had no intention of making fireworks.

"Today, most of them are elders. The fifth daughter-in-law will serve tea to the elders with your sister-in-law." Ye Guifei looked at Li Tian's gentle order. Li Tian quickly bent her knees and agreed, stepped back a few steps, and stood at Zhu Mingyan's head.

As Mrs. Zhou said, the snow appreciation banquet in the palace is not lively, there is no play, no music, and no juggling. However, everyone drinks politely at the banquet, looked at the snow sculptures outside, and took turns to praise those exquisite and very various crisps.

Li Tian stood in a row with the other three imperial concubines, but she took tea, handkerchiefs and others from the maids and maids, and handed them over. Except for countless eyes that looked at her openly or secretly, Ye Guifei, Jiang Guifei and others treated her no differently, which made Li Tian secretly relieved. They were all face-looking people, so it was easy to do.

The snow appreciation banquet ended soon, and until the end, Li Tian did not see the uniqueness of this boring banquet. Ye Guifei left Zhu Mingyan. When everyone left Ye Guifei and Jiang Guifei, Princess Fan kept looking at the left prime minister Fan Wenyuan's wife Wu. Princess Fan is Fan Xiang's nephew who has not come out five clothes. Granddaughter saw that Mrs. Wu resigned the two noble concubines, and Princess Fan also found an opportunity to resign. She caught up with Mrs. Wu in a few steps, took her and went out of the palace with a smile.

Li Tian breathed a sigh of relief. She was worried about how she could talk to Princess Shou alone without attracting attention, which saved trouble. Li Tian only stared at Princess Shou and said goodbye with her. She talked about the ice sculptures and snow sculptures on the roadside all the way. Halfway, there were fewer and fewer people around her. Li Tian slowly changed the topic and said, "... There is something I'm looking for my sister-in-law for advice."

"Hmm?" Princess Shou looked at Li Tian doubtfully, and Li Tian continued, "This matter has something to do with the assassination of Goro while playing in the Moon Building a few days ago." Princess Shou's face changed slightly, and her heart turned back and nodded, "I heard your eldest brother mention the assassination of Wulang once and said that he did not hurt Goro, so I was relieved."

"Well, Golang was not injured. It was thanks to Miss Liu Yuniang, who played with the Moon Tower, who blocked the knife for him," Li Tian said the general process of Liu Yuniang's knife for the fifth prince: "...If she hadn't blocked this knife," Li Tian looked afraid: "Golang was afraid of losing half of his life. When I heard about this, I wanted to make Liu Xiao My sister received a good care in the house, but she heard that the upper and lower floors of the moon were now detained in the government office, so she did not dare to act rashly. Li Tian looked at Princess Shou and frowned and said worriedly, "I won't pick it up. I'm worried that she won't be able to eat and live outside."

Princes Shou glanced at Li Tian. Li Tian bit her lip, lowered her voice and then said, "There is no impervious wall. Miss Liu sacrificed her life to save Wulang, but sooner or later, everyone will know that Jin'an County's palace ignored the prince's life-saving benefactor outside the house. What is this reputation? She is a cheap kabuki and takes her into the house, and there are only many concubines in the house. What can she do? Compared with the reputation of the royal palace of Jin'an County, this is not worth mentioning. Princess Shou stopped, reached out and shook Li Tian's hand, looked at her carefully and smiled, "You can say this to me, but you don't regard your sister-in-law as an outsider. You are thoughtful about this matter, but that's not. It's a very small matter whether Liu Yuniang can enter the house or not. It's better for her to enter the house than outside. Compared with this matter, your reputation, Prince Jin'an The reputation of the house is the big deal.

"Well, my sister-in-law also thinks so, so I'm relieved. Can you bother my sister-in-law to ask the eldest brother when she can pick up Miss Liu back?" Li Tian smiled with relief, and Princess Shou readily agreed, "I'll ask your eldest brother tonight and send someone to reply to you tomorrow." Li Tian quickly thanked Princess Shou. Princess Shou and Li Tian talked about housework and children and walked out of the palace together.

Li Tian got into the car, and the car turned around. The green branches lifted the curtain to look at it, put down the curtain, and looked at Li Tian and said, "I didn't hear anything. I just heard from the girl next to the Duke of Wen that this year's snow banquet was not interesting at all. I specifically asked about the snow banquet in previous years. She said that the first snow banquet last year, that It was still snowing heavily, and the banquet was placed in the pavilion in the middle of the lake. The gates were open, and the ground dragons were burning in their jackets. Some people held boats to dance and sing in the lake. Not to mention how elegant it was. At the snow banquet before the Spring Festival, the hall was full of narcissus. The hall was fragrant and beautiful, which was the most boring this year.
